That homecoming of half & century ago, still green in the memories of scores of older citi- zens of Norwich is described thus in the columns of the Bulletin of '6 Cannon and Bells Sound Welcome. A dispatch in the morning from New York announced that they did not leave that city until nine o'clock and therefore would not arrive in Norwich before six or seven o'clock in the evening. They were reported opposite New London before six and about half past six the esc companies, with the Armor: company, former on Franklin square and marched to the steamboat dock. Soon after the Norwich Light infanti escorted the Governor from his res | dence to the Wauregan hotel, where he met the city authorities. At seven o'clock the firing of a salute and the ringing of - bells announced the ap- | proach of the City of Norwich, bear- ing the remnant of a regiment that lin 1 than three-quarters of year ! has won a record of pride to them- selves and of glory to the state.

The streets were ! lined with excited spectators who fre- | v cheered the noble Colonel, the | brave ‘regiment and the torn - and | blackened colors. One little boy crowded up to the colonel and said timidly: “How do you do Mr. Kings ley,” which we do not doubt was quite {an episode in his past experiences in |a few months. { At the plain a bountifully loaded and heautifully decorated table had been arranged for the accommodation of about 2000 persons. On the en- trance to the park was hung the motto “Welcome Twenty-8ixth” and the words “Port Hudson” appropriately decorated the stand that was occupied by the governor, mayor, city council, Col.

You have done your duty to your country, and there. fore I welcome you home with joy and gladness of heart; but this welcome given you here is mothing compared with that other welcome which I am sure your hearts are longing to receive { from” the warm lips ard tender arms { of the loved ones at home, and I hope {and pray from the bottom of my heart . | that you may find all those dear ones | spared to meet you and as well and | happy as I know they will be proud to | greet you home. -1 now invite you to partake of the repast which has been provided for you as a very slight tok- en of the sympathy we have felt for you in your trials and dangers, and of the joy with which we welcome you now that you have returned in honor to your homes. | Soldierly Reply by Colonel Kingsley. | Colonel Kingsley replied in a sol dierly and unassuming manner, stat- ing that they enlisted a few months ago with, he believed, the most purely patriotic motives to defend the only | | | fres government that the sun shines on; they had suffered privations, en- dured hardships, and faced dangers without complaint or discouragement; they had won the praise of their com. | manding generals and the shtisfaction { of having done thelr duty; and they | were willing to renew their vows to | their country and enlist again in its | service, if it were necessary. His brief | remarks, which his lorious wounds | made difficult of delivering, were fre- quently and loudly appiauded. Veterans Claimed by Their Friends. After the ovation was finished the different companies that formed the | escort marched to their several head- ! quarters, and the thousands of patient friends dispersed to their homes, tak- ing with them the toil and weather worn heroes of siege and battle. Gallantry at Port Hudson, The history of the 26th regiment is emblazoned with glory to our common- wealtn. In the first assault on Port | Hudson they led the charge, in com | pany with one other regiment, and suf- fered the most severely of any in the enzagement. And all through the weary siege their long list of casual-! ties are a recogd of their courage and fidelity They ® return to us but 550 strong. They buried seven along the banks of the Mississippi, between Port Hudson and Vicksburg, on their way home. A few who were unable to come j further were also left in hospitals in Memphis, Cairo and Chicago, and one Miles Bromley of Jewctt City—died on the steamboat from New York, al- most within sight of his home and ex- j pectant friends. Seven poor men were | unable to leave the dock and partici- pate in the interesting ocgasion, and were kindly assisted to the Thames ho- | tel, where they will be cared for.

ADMIRAL BADGER'S STRATEGY. Positions of His Ships Hidden from Fort Guns by Dense Smoke. adopted by Rear Badger, in com- fleet which threat- lens to storm New York, assisted by {low barometric pressure, enabled the | warships of the enemy to make what | would undoubtedly have been & suc- cessful attack upon the island forts | Wednesday evening, followed by an lentry into Long Isiand sound = and thence to the metropolic. Two divisions of battleships and three divisions of topedo boat destrovers made a con- certed onslaught on Forts Wright, Terry and Michie at 10 p. m. Their approach was readily discov- ered as heretofore by the searchlights {on the fortifications, and immediately levery battery on the islands resembled |a wall of flame as broadsides were | directed against the dark gray hulks. {But for once the mammoth | searchlights were blocked in their |duty of directing the aim of the | gunners. | Here and there a destrover moved | apart from the remainder of the fleet, |and in the briefest possible space of time sent up a denso cloud of thic black smoke which arose for am in- stant over the dreadnoughts and then , settled down upon them like an ebony { mantle drawn by unseer hands.

The recent statement that moving picture shows were being in the tabernacle at Crescent ‘n will re- eafl to some Connecticut the widely heralded plan to make that shore resort a Baptist summer settle- ment and to have a building wnere the annual meetings of the Connecticut Efble School union could be held. The plan seemed to promise well, but in spite of a good start it uitimatel. failed, and incidentally severe critic- isms were uttered nst those who promoted the land scheme. The organization that purchased property at Crescent Beach was known as the Baptist Seaside Resort associa- tion. The late Rev. J. D. Herr, D. D., then of Norwich, was president. A, P, Carroll of Norwich was secretary and treasurer and others prominently con- nected with the association were R. G. Hooper of Montville. Rev. C. H. Piddock of Middletown, J. I, Green of Meriden and Rev. T. S.’ Swanson of New Haven. The tabernacle was completed over 30 years ago and for a short time was quite a popular place Tor Baptist con ventions and Sunday school picnics. An early prospectus of the association, af- ter stating the decision to hold annual meetings of the Bible School union at the seaside, says: “Ground was purchased at Crescent Beach and in a very short space of time 100 choice lots were sold to per- sons representing various portions of the state, and thus the proposed plan resolved itself into a successful and permanent fact. “The work already accomplished has involved an outlay of several thou- sand dollars, embracing a beautifully arranged plan of lots, avenues, groves, locating of tabernacle, together with clearing off the ground and grading and paving the avenues and culverts. There is considerably over one mile of finished roads, constituting as fine a driveway as can be found at any wa- tering place in the country. “All the improvements thus far, to- gether with the land. have been paid for, and the committee have sufficient means, country lots unsold, together with ~ash on hand, to complete the tabernacle free from debt.’ The early promise of financial suc- cess was not carried out. People in the western section of the state con- sidered the resort located too far away for their convenience and interest in the enterprise lagged. Some Baptists }dihmm at 1 in the light of a scheme calculated to make money for somebody rather than tion, and that suspicion no doubt had considerable to do with the failure of the plan. Crescent Beach has developed more than tne association members ever an- ticipated, but it is now far from a de- nominational resort. The building up creasing improvements that are being furnished show that those who bought land years ago possessed good busi- ness foresight and the Baptists who acquired lots have a title to property that 8 much more valuable than when they Invested their money and it Is in- creasing in value all the time.

The large outlay required by this work is just- ified by the fact that while the hauling capacity of the locomotive is increased about 20 per cent., there is at the same time a saving affected of 20 per cent. in coal and 25 per cent. in water.
