POSTMEN voom( WILL BE CUPID'S MESSENGERS Valentine’s Day Is Here—Bleeding Hearts and Comics Will Circulate As of Yore. A day for the expression of ten- der sentiments, - a day for the re- newal of friendshi o.t making up lovers' quarrels, a day of Dleasure (o the youth and perhaps to many an- other_as well who is no longer vouth- ful—St. Valentine's day, has arrived. Al]l the world will have a care today about opening its malit before another —to hide perhaps the. real feeling with which the lines expressive of devotion, are received: perhaps to = hide the grinning, hideous picture with the ugly verse, which thie small boy de- lights in sending to his dear school teacher or some elderly maiden lady who objects to having her grapes stolen or a baseball thrown through her front window. All sorts of bleeding hearts, crea- tions of lace and celluloid, and post cards will burden down the postman, who must welcome the happy St. Val- entine’s day with much the same pleasure as that which he fecls the day before Christmas. The stores were kept busy on Thursday trying to please the late buvers who found the choicest sentiments or most hideous whichever were sought, al- ready gone. That the day will be observed as redligiously as ever is evident from the fact that in all the stores the supply of valentine greet- ings was sadly depleted on Thursday and all report a brisk sale.

Last Meonday at Fitchville there was an engagement party at which Philip Buska and Olga Abugal’ both were duly betrothed d en tered into a contract to marry N aturday, February 1 By the next day the young woman had a change of heart and refused to be mar- ried on Saturday. Wednesday she was in this city endeavoring to withdraw her money from the savings bank where she an account, but she was baiked¥in this endeavor because it happened to be a holiday, Lincoln's birthday, and the bank was closed. The holiday, however, was no b¥r to the attachment, which the prospective bridegroom was able fo place on the girl's account. in the suit for breach of contract which he promptly insti- tuted. ~The attachment wsds made jater in the day by service on the treasurer of the bank at his home. Thursday afternoon thé two who had plighted their troth met here, the man was recompensed. to his satistaction with a money payment, and both par- tigs gave their friends to understand fthat they were better satisfied with that way out of it than if they.had gone ahead with the original hymen- eal intentions. It is understood that this is the second time that the two have been nearly man and - wife. Last spring the young man came here from De- troit, the wedding was arransed for, but at the suggestion of the young wo man was deferred. Buska then re- turned to Detroit, secured a good job there and has been there ever since until a letter from Miss Abugal en- couraged him to come back here as she was ready to marry him now. Hopeful of success this time with his thwarted marriage plans, he made the journey east and the engagement par- |ty was held last Monday, only to have the prospective wedding upset again by the youns woman's change qf mind and heart. It is probable now that Mr. Buska will_return to Detroit and make no more trips east to marry Miss Abu- gal. Thomas M. Shields was attor- ney for Buska in the settlement of his suit. SIXTH ANNIVERSARY OF LARCHMONT DISASTER. More Than 180 Lives Were Lost in Collision Of Quonochontaug Between Steamer and Schooner. Six vears ago Tuesday night the steamer Larchmont of the Joy . line safled from Providence for New York. When dawn broke the life savers of the Quonochontaug life saving station discovered the schooner Harry Knowl- ton on the beach and her captain re- ported that he had been in collision with and sunk a passenger boat. This was the first intimation that anyone ashore had of the sea tragedy which cost the lives of more than 180 persons. The exact number of lost was never ascertained. Oniy 19 were saved, two of whom died afterward in the Rhode Island hospital. Only 92 bodies were recovered. The night of the disaster was -clear and cold, thé thermometer being at zero. It was labout 10.30 when the schooner Harry Knowlton crashed into the steamer, which was off the regular steamer track. In less than 10 min- utes the Larchmont had gone to the bottom, 2 1-2 miles of Quonochontaus. Of those that were saved a dozen came _ashore in lifeboats, including Captain MeVey and some of the other officers ‘and crew, while seven were picked up on a piece of floating deck 12 miles off Block Island by fishermen who braved a storm to make the res- cue. Two women, the only ones saved, were on this piece of deck. In the investigation which followed the fact was brought out that the loss of life was probably much greater than it would have been otherwise because of the fact that there were no emer- gency signaling apparatys in the pilot house.
