Grace Lathrop Collin. Grace Lathrop Collin, well known and greatly beloved by a wide circle of friends and kindred in Norwich and elsewhere, passed from this life in New York at an_early hour on Wed- nesday morning, Nov. 5 . Although she has been an invalid for several months her health had so far improved that she was confidently expecting to spend Thanksgiving here with her aunt, Miss Hannah L, Ripley. Her sudden death is therefore a painful surprise. She was a descendant in direct line from Governor William Bradford of the old Plymouth colony, and from the Rev. John Lathrop, who was impris- oned and banished to this country in the days of Archbishop Land. Her grandparents were Judge George Burbank and Hannah G. Ripley. Her father, the Hon. Charles A. Collin, is a_distinguished lawyer in New York. Her mother, Emily Lathrop Collin, died several years ago. She was born in Elmira, N.

Gardner of! 2 $393.91—Count is Made For the first fifteen days of Oc- tober, under directions from the post office department, the local office has been keeping a detailed count of the parcel post business here, which is the same thing that has also been done in all the large offices of the country in order to furnish statistics on the service. The count involved a large amount of detail as every package had to be recordeq and to what zones they were sent, how much the postage and what the weight of packages were by the zone distribution, the whote forming a complicated mass of figures that meant much work in figuring and ar- ranging to make the ultimate report that the government required. It has been found that for the time mentioned a grand total of 10,182 par- cel post packages was received and delivered through the Norwich office. This figure is made up of 4,036 parcels dispatched, 87 local parcels, and 6,059 parcels received. . . Of the more than 4,000 parcels dis- patched the average weight was 2 pounds and 1 ounce, and the average Postage on them was 9 1-2 cents. The parcels dispatched weighed over 4 tons, the exact figure being 8,916 poumis and the postage on this amount | of parcel post matter was $383.91.

Dowsett Puts His Whole Soul Into It When He Plays a Pic- ture. The Motion Picture News, as the re- sult of a visit of its musical critic to this city, contains the following -leas- ing reference to a popular pianist of this city: I met Norwlich, Conn., at the Colonial theatre, another manager, Charles McNulty, who has views identical with those of Mrs. Clement. He believes in a good pianist. The pianist is Charles A. Dowsett, whom I was pleased to meet, get his views and hear him play a picture. Mr. Dowsett studics tge theme of the picture, and he seems to put his whole soul inta his work. While his fingers run on the keyboard his mind is not on some- thing else, but on the picture alone. ‘The lovers of motion pictures of Nor- wich so well appreciate the efforts of Mr. Dowsett that they come to the Colonial theatre in preference, and as they like to compliment him on his clever way of playing the picture, he is grestly encouraged, and tries to better imself day after day. Why are the photoplay houses of small towns far ahead of the ones %f the big cities? Merely because in a small town everybody knows everyone. A good picture, a fine projection, ap- propriate music, go from one person to another. The manager, the pianist, the operator, are praised, and all these praises are a constant encouragement to do better. In a large city it is selfishness, it is indifference. The pa- trons, strangers to the manager, to the pianist and to the operator, walk away without a word of praise. in CANNOT OPERATE FREIGHT CARS WITH EIGHT WHEELS Connecticut Co. Asks for Change in Utilities Commission’s Order. The Gonnecticut company has filed with the Public Utllities commission a petition asking for a modification of the commission’s order issued Oct. 22 restricting the use of certain types of trolley cars and.requiring that all freight carrying cars be equipped with alr brakes. The petition sets forth that the Connectiput company oper- ates four wheel freight cars and that their lines are equipped for the pur- pose, and that it is impossible to oper- ate eight wheel freight cars; also that the equipment of all freight and ex- press cars with air brakkes would im- pose great expense and hardship on the company. A hearing on the peti- tion will be given Nov. 11. NOVEMBER ROSES. Bush on Lafayette Strest Has Blos- somed Every Month This Season.

PRAISE FOR FIREMEN. Writes of Work at Sachem Street Resident Their Good and Careful Chimney Fire. s After Chief Howard L. Stanton had rung the 8.30 test sirokes on the fire dlarm bell on Wednesday .evening, he assembled the men at the Central station and read them a brief but very satisfactory letter from the firemen's standpoint as it gave them special commendztion for the work they aid at a chimney fire last week at the home of Mr. and Mrs. George L. Carey at No, 99 Sachem street. The writer for the family mentioned particularly the quiet and careful and vet efficient way in which the Norwich firemen worked and said they would gladly thank such men individually it they knew who they were. A similar letter was sent to the Falls station and read to the men there by Capt. William Stinson. In connection with the letter he read, Chief Stanton told the men that it was not the only one of that char- acter that he received, and that he was glad to have them know that they were doing their work to the satisfaction of the public, whom they were called up- on to serve in times of emergency, and that people appreciated the fact that they were not of the “washout” type of firemen,who wouid put on a stream of water whenever they got a chance. He commended the way the Norwich men weré using chemical in extiin- i guishing many of the fires they were called out to look after. Attended Wedding in New Haven.
