Marcus L. Tryon. Marcus L. Tryon, '78, died at his home, 41 Spring street, Monday after- noon. Mr. Tryon had not been well for some time, but had been confined to his bed only since last Friday. The deceased was 78 years of age. He was ‘born in Mansfleld, March 16, 1835 and spent his boyhood days in that town and Tolland. After attending grammar school he entered Wilbraham academy where he graduated. This educational course was followed by Mr. Tryon's attending and graduating from the New Britain state normal training school. Mr. Tryon then taught for a number of vears. Over half a century ago he came to Willimantic, establishing a local life and fire insurance business and later adding real estate. He later dropped the insurance business and devoted his entire time to realty in- terests. He built up a large business which is now_conducted by his two sons, Charles W. and Edward: J, Try- on. Mr. Tryon occupied an office in the Holmes block for over forty years. Mr. Tryon was one of the prominent men of the communi He took a keen interest and active part in the affairs of the town. For many years he was a member of the town school committee and the board of relief. He was a staunch republican in 'politics. His business prospered and Mr. Tryon accumulated considerable wealth and he retired from active business sev- eral years ago. At Tolland he mar- ried Harriet James, who survivgs him. There are also four children, Charles W.,.Edward J. and Mary J. of this city and Framk Stanley of New York. Barn Struck by Lightning. A barn belonging to Albert Baker, at Ripley Hill, South Coventry, was struck by lightning during Saturday's shower. The estimated damage is about $25. The telephone and tele- graph lines were considerably affected and the local electric lights were out of commission for a time, the local mov- ing picture houses being dark for a short time. NON-MEMORIAL TOPICS Discussed by Some of_t‘he Speakers at the K. of C. Memorial Exercises. Members of San Jose council, K. of C., are expressing their regrets be- cause the sequel of Hon. Josenh O’Neiil’'s admirable and sanely patri- otic address at their Memorial day ex- ercises at St. Joseph's cemetery Sun- day should have been followed by a speech at the K. of P. hall that was clearly a political effort to “prop up” Comptroller Dunn, from whom the speaker received the appointment as his chief clerk at a salary of $2,000 per year. Members say that no mat- ter how efficient or’ inefficient Comp troller Dunn may be, the proprieties of a Memorial day forbid turning the meeting into a political rally. It was thought by many at the meeting Mayor Dunn’s second address was more ap- propriate for a political rally, at which time it would have been proper for him to get out of his system the sting of public criticism that is being made of his official acts as mayor of Willi- mantic. Thoughtful members of the Knights of Columbus feel that there is a danger that their order is being “worked” by selfish politicians. There was much interest in the pub- lic spirited snggestion of John Craw- ford of Norwich, a former resident of Willimantic, that a movement should be started in this city to secure a sol- monument. Mr. Crawford thought the idea of a canal to make navigation possible between this city and New London harbor was not an impossible day dream to be realized in the years to come. From the City’s Exchequer. It cost Willimantic last week $586.79 to “pay off.” as follows: Police $143.08, street department $286.46, maintaining sewers $12, sidewalk construction $24, water works construction $24, water works, regular, $57.11.

Jacob Bonczek of Taftville, a sub- scription agent of a Polish publication issued at Toledo, O. complained t7 Chief Richmond Monday that he had been assaulted Saturday evening by Frank Zientara, who was in a house at 28 Yellow row. Bonczek claimed that his alleged assailant sometimes used the name Joseph Smith. The subscription agent's story of the trouble is that Zientara was on one or two occasions arrested in Norwich for assaulting his wife and that he was aggrieved because he (Bonczek) pub- lished the news in the Ohio Polish paper that has subscribers in this vi- cinity: Bonczek savs when he went t, a house in this city Saturday to make collections he found Zientara there and he (Zientara) used abusive language and threw a brush at the agent's head Incorporated 1842 “fllg Oaks from httle Anurns Grnw No better birthday gift for the children than i> make a dollar deposit for every year of their ag: at this solid and progres- sive savings institute.

State T@nl- New York, June 9.—With the sum- mer solstice only twelve days off, with a June bride at the vestibule of nearly every church, and with roses on every bush, the mercury ‘dropped so far to- day that all cold weather records for the month were broken. In this town'straw hats seemed rid- fculous ang it was essier to think of the gridiron than the dlamond. From many fowns up state there were re- | ports of frost and ice. In getting this record-breaking weather with a minimum temperature of 47 degres, New York city exper- ienced something of the sensation of going thousands of feet into the air on an aeroplane. Luckily enough, the city accomplished this in the easler way of havinb that atmosphere come down to the lower level on which New York is already situated. This was done by barometric pressure, accord- ing to the weather bureau. The change in atmosphere brought the coldest June 9 on record. The colg wave was caused by an area of high barometric pressure which forced down clear, rarified ether that ordinarily never gets within théusands of feet of the earth’s surface. That was why you felt as if you were drink- ing champagne when you started to run for the car this morning. It isn't often that the weather department of naturt plays so queer a freak as this. It is the usual custom to speak of such cold weather as this spell as “coming down from the Arctic wastes of northern Canada,” but vou may take it on the authority of the weather bu- reau men on Battery Place that the real state of affairs is as set forth above. True, the trouble started with high barometric pressure over north- western Canada, in_the neighborhood of Winnipeg, on Saturday morning. But since then the area of pressure has shifted to the Great Lakes, where it is now centered, and by all indica- tions should remain for several days to come. In the meantime the cold clarified air from the upper levels has dropped upon the entire area of the Atlantic coast, Middle Western, Southern and Gulf states. There is nothing particu- larly dangerous to human beings in this cold, because it is absolutely pure and impregnated with sparkling prop- erties. But it is certain to play havoc with crops. From =all over this state come stories of frost, while at Mid- dletown last night there was ice on ponds of still water. There are several record-breaking features about present conditions. Be- sides a general breaking of records everywhere for June 9 low temperteure marks, the barometer in the centre of pressure has climbed to a registra- tios of 30.66. which is said to be with- out precedent. In Charleston, S. C., where it was 80 on Saturday, it was 62 this morning: and even in the Guilf states, which are in the full grip of sweltering temperteures, thermometers registered no higher than 72 this morn- ing. Evervwhere farmers are work- ing overtime to screen their crops as well as possible, but it is likely that many perishable fruits and vegetables will be ruined. Residents of New Jersey, where ice has just gone from forty to fifty cents a hundred, met the iceman with cheer- ful smiles this morning. It is highly probable that the ice dealers will not profit unduly by reason of the present colg snap, and there are those among their customers who hope that the high pressure area over the Great T.akes may be anchored there for months to come. There is & rumor that a prominent inventor is to be re- tained to devise a scheme for main- taining conditions as they are. It is interesting to recall that June 9® last vear also broke the record for coldness. Buf the thermometer drop- ped only to 51 at that time, four de- grees above the record set this morn- ing. It is probable that the weather will stay clear as long as the cold per- sists. although there is a threat of rain to the south. Overcoats will be In order and straw hats barred at this afternoon’s sporting functions.

Washington, June 9.—Ex-President Taft spent several hours today with other members of the Lincoln Memo- rial commission, going over plans for the new $2,000,000 memorial to be erected in Washington. Professor Taft was afterward a luncheon guest of Speaker Clark at the capitol, with the democratic house leader, Mr. Underwood, and ex- -Speak- er Cannon. The commission approved plans for the memorial drawn by Henry Bacon and certified them to the secretary of war to afivertise for bids. No decision was reathed as to the choice of a sculptor of the Lincoln statue. “We will not have to choose the sculptor until January,” said Mr. Taft. The former president will leave ‘Washington for New Haven tomorrow morning. Professor Taft visited the supreme court with Charles D. Hilles, and Miss Mabel Boardman, during the render- ing of decisions. Not within a gener- ation had a former president visited the court in session.
