The inclemency of the weather had eflmt nn the 500 ormn: day evening thho nl‘htl' festival given ithew T. A. soclety. at 9 o'clock -President Jo- seph Bellefleur, escorting Rev. John H. Fitxmaurice, and Joseph A. Donnelly, with his honor Mayor Murphy, crossed the hall and appeared on the stage. After the audience for tholr liberal patronage of the evening, Pres- id‘nt Bellefleur in a neat little speech resented Rev. John H. Fitzmaurice, ch-pmn ¢ the society, to open the Among other things, ther Flmn'ice s2id in part: It was a pleasure to.say a good word for the Father Mathew society, whose fourteen years’ existence has been productive of so much good in the community in stamping out the vice of intemperan e, which- has caused so much disgrace and suffering to family and city. I wish the society prosperity fin their festival and trust you will encourage them by your efforts and patronage, said the speaker. His honor Mayor Murphy was then introduced and said it was a great pleasure to greet a soclety which hal its beginning in old St. Mary’s church, the home of the Catholic organizations _ofthis gity. The mayor said he under- stood t the object of the festival was to create a fund to erect a build- ing of their own. The city would ad- mire a building of that nature and would take a just pride in watching the movements the movements of thoss who tend to upbuild humanity. The speakers were heartily applauded in their remarks. Father Mathew Minstrels. The Father Mathew minstrels fur- nished the stage attraction for the evening, the characters being as fol- low: In End Men—Joseph Gadle, erfocutor—Frank Leonard. Edward Bellefleur, Thomas McCaffrey, James Mullen. Soloists—Grace E. Hartie, Albina Juneau, Joseph Gauthier, Thomas Buckley, Thomas Shahan. Chorus—Helen Sullivan, Catherine Yerrington, Francis Edwards, Klizabeth Bowen, Mary Nolan, Nona Bremnan, Kittle Bresnan, Kittie Sliney, Anna Sliney, Marguerite Sliney, Teresa Nea- lon, Minnie Gonnell Marguerite Con- don, Leadore J. Gladue, Fred Lamoine, Jerry Downing, Thomas Donovan, Walter Donovan, Augustus Mussell, Robert Swanton. HOUSE STRONGLY AGAINST REPEAL (Continued from Page One.) railroad bridge, and, with the careful commiseion, with the governor at the hend, the state has been assured that when the pler is completed that at least four steamship lines are ready to take advantage of the situation and have termd at New London. While | all this will be a benefit to New Lon- don, the whole state will be benefited. Wants Connecticut to Be Progressive. Mr. Storrs of Ansomia declared that he was In favor of progress and in favor of the majority report of the committes that signified progress. When the Panama cana] is open to traffic ‘there will be much maritime business, and Connecticut will be pre- pared to reap some of the benefits. The state cannot act as the miser by keeping 1ts dollar and expecting to double §t.. New York is spending mil- lions” om its harbor, Massachusetts is | doing the same at Boston, and even little Rhode Island is expending a mil- lion and a half at Providence in antic- ipation of the Panama cana. business, and he wanted Connecticut to remain in_the progressive procession und reach out for the business. No Valid Reason for Repeal. Mr. Kirchberger of Morriz said he found that when the measure was be- fore the legislature of 1911 it ‘was ad- vocated by Representatives Magee and Wadhams and the late Dr. Knight, all Litchfield county men, and what was good . enough for that trioc was good enough for him. Mr. Lockwood of Stamford said that the present session of the legislature was not called upon to make the ap- propriation of $1,000,000, for that was dore by the legislature of 1911l. He suppased the action taken at that time had been adjudicated. He was satis- fied: that action was not taken until after the most careful comsideration, and that action is entitled to the seri- ous consideration of the present ses- sion. He could see no reason for the drastic action that was proposed by the repeal bill. The measure was adopted with only thres dissenting | Votes two years ago, and there was no valid rcason for repeal. A Business Proposition. Mr. Mages of Watertown said he voted in favor of the appropriation of $1,000,000 two years ago, and was go- ing to stand pat for it mow. It was not & gift or grab, but a business proposition in establishing a port for the state. Naturally New London will be benefited more than any other city, but the resultant benefits will be state- wide. State Not Going Broke. Mr. Healy of Windsor Locks spoke in favor of sustaining the action of the legislature of 1911, and discred- ited the state tax bugaboo as promul- gated by Mr. Hall. Connecticut is not Zolng broke on this appropriation, and future legisiatures can take just as good care of the stte as can the pres- ent -legislature. Mr. Caine of Naugatuck spoke of the subsidiming of the water ways at Manchester, ‘England, that resuletd in making that inland city one of the areatest ports In the worid, using it as an example why Connectiott ehould do something in the way of development of its water ways. Previous Question Moved. At-this juncture Mr. Hyde of Man- TEMPERANGE WORKERS FESTIVAL Mayor Murphy Gives Greoting on Opening Night—Rev. J H. Fitzmaurice, Society’s Chaplain, Officially Opens Father Mathew Prognmm&Mimttell Well Given. The._accompanist for the minstrels was Miss Kathleen Murphy, who han- dled her: work with much grace and precision. The attractive stage decor- ations were set to represent a bal- cony at a Palm Beach hotel. It was conceded to be one of the finest set- tings ever seen at thé hall and reflect- d-zudly credit on the decorators, Miss Mary B. Hartle, Mary T. Sullivan, Mrs. Alphonse Bellefieur, who worked under the supervision of Mrs. Mary L. Sli- ney. The ‘flowers were poinsettia and vimes and the colors of the stage con- fined to red, green and white, beau- tiful palms from Moore’s adding much attraction to the scene. The - interlocutor appeared in a yachting suit. Miss Hartie was dress- ed in white, wearing a Paris hat, white trimmed with paddy green and car- ried a green parasol. Miss June§u wore white with a Paris hat of American beauty shade and carried a white par- ascl. The men soloists wore dark coats, white trousers and sailor hats, the end men, representing porters, dressed in gray, with red ties. The chorus. ladies were dressed in white | wearing beach caps and the young men wore white shirt waists, dark trousers and white sailor hats. The minstrels were heartily encored, the soloists and end men carryving their parts well while the interlocutor could not have been improved upon. The stage setting and costuming were carried out by Mrs. Mary L. Sli- ney, showing her usual painstaking ability in this line of work. Committees in Charge. The committees in_general charge were: Ticket office, James M. Mur- phy; door, Philias Gladue and Joseph Deviin; cashier, Joseph Bellefleur; re- freshments, Matthew F. Sullivan, Jo- seph E. O'Sullivan and Leadore J. Gladue: fancy and domestic table, Mrs. Alphonse Bellefleur; hat room, Eugene Berry and Joseph Donovan. Following _ the entertainment the Cadillac orchestra, Prof. James Drew, leader, rendered excellent music for dancing, which lasted until midnight. The booths at the rear of the hall were handsomely decorated. Society Founded in 1899. The Father Mathew T. A. society was founded by Rev. James J. Smith, former rector of St. Mary’s church, now _rector at St. Francis’, Fairhaven, on Sunday, April 9, 1899, in the as- sembly rooms of St. Mary’s cherch, and it has proven itself a power for much g00d in the community. The present headquarters of the society are at Car. penters’ hall, North Main and Seventh streets. chester moved the previous question, which prevafied. Then the motion ac- | cepting the report of the majority of ||| the committee on roads, bridges and | rivers was put on its passage. The motion was carried almost unanimous- ly, the only audible Noes coming from Messrs. Hall and Maltbie. Just to clinch the action Mr. Avery of Groton made motion for reconstdera- tion, expressing hope that the motion would not prevail. The motion to re- consider was lost. Democratic Caucus. After the democratic senatorial cau- cus this afternoon the opinion was generally held among members of the general assembly that Tax Commis- sioner William H. Corbin, renominat- ed by Gov. Baldwin, will be confirmed. | It is thought that possibly six demo- crats will join with the fourteen re- publicans and accept the report of the committee on executive nominations. The caucus dld not pass another bind- ing vote, but it was understood that the previous vote to make the nomina- tion a party matter and reject it on political grounds still held good. Sen- ators who attended the caucus spoke freely afterwards of what had taken place. Reports of Caucus Disagree, Gov. Baldwin gave his reasons for sending in Mr. Corbin’s name, and he was quizzed at some length. No one kept any minutes of what had been said, and the stories afterwards relat- ed, while agreeing in the main, did not | agree on just what questions were ask- ed and what answers Gov. Baldwin made. The governor himself declined to say anything as to what had taken place, except that he had had a friend- SRt el aenora it e Predicted Corbin’s Confirmation. Those senators who oppose Mr. Cor- bin sald that they asked the governor if it were not possible to find a dem ocrat to name for the office. Senator Peck said that the governor once af- firmed that he knew Mr. Corbin would be confirmed, and the governor was asked in return from what source he | obtained this information. The Corbin | nomination comes into the senate at noon tomorrow, and a long debate is looked for. | | Pensions for Teachers. T other legislative matters taken up in both branches were of minor im- | portance. In the house chamber this aftcrnoon the hearing of bills to pro- | vide a state pension em for teach- | ers brought together teachers who fill ed very seat. Mr. Ames of Hartford | handled the case for the teachers ,and among those who spoke were Payso Smith, state superintendent of school: in _Iflne; ‘Walter E. Ranger, state su perintendent in Rhode Island; Profes. sor Moore of Yale universit: George B. Chandler and others. To questions asi<ed by Senator Newman, the chair- man of the education committee, Mr. Comstock said that in the state at present there are 203 teachers who have served thirty years or more. $15,000 Needed First Year. Of this number there are probably | not over forty who would retire under a pension system by July 1, 1914. To meet the pensions of these teachers the | state would need to appropriate about $15,000 for the first year. The speechies in favor of the bill were many and earnest for a pension sys- tem which would assur> faithful teachers that in their declining years after a long term of service provision had been made for them.
