Mrs. Octave Sautier. Georgianna Sautier, wife of Octave Sautier, died rather suddenly at her home in Uncasville Sunday about noon. Mrs. Sautigr was apparently in good health Saturday, and during the even- ing started out to make a visit. While walking she was seized with a sudden illness and had to be removed to her home. Her condition rapidly grew worse, death coming on Sunday. Be- sides her husband, she leaves three sons, Peter, Joseph and Octave Sautier. There are’also three sisters, two of whom reside in Canada. Mrs. Sautier was 59 vears of age. Ole Erickson. About § o'clock Saturday morning Ole Erickson died in this city, and the remains were taken in charge by Un- dertaker Gager. Mr. FErickson had been seriously ill for the past three weeks. He was 44 years of age and a native of Norway, coming to this coun- try and first locating in Worcester 27 years ago. In the summer of 1901 ke came to Norwich and had since resid- ed htre, making his home on the road from Fox Hill and Hallville on the East Side. He was employed at the Hopkins & Allen Arms company. Eight vears and six months ago he was mar- ried in Fitchburg, Mass., and his wife survives him. He is also survived by two daughters. Two sisters are in Nor- way, and two nieces, Mrs. Andrew Swanberg_and Miss Jensine Emila Johnson, both of this city. Michael Kelly. Norwich relatives have been in- formed of the death ¢~ Michael Kelly on Feb. 1 at Poplar, Mont., at the age of 76. He was a brother of the late Timothy Kelly and was well known in this city, where he lived in the old Dr. Mason place on Laurel Hill, now al- tered over into the office of the Ther- mos company. The two brothers, Timothy and Mi- chael, organized the firm -of Kelly Brothers in 1870, erecting the building on North Main street where they did business, but Michael sold out to Tim- othy after three or four years. After the death of Timothy Keily the prop- erty again came into the possession of Michael through a distributive share in_his brother's estate. Michael Kelly prospered in the west through his land holdings and was 76 years old at the time of his death. Be- fore going west he was in the south for a time, and at one time was a po- liceman in_ Savannah. The two brothers both fought in the Civil war, Michael.in the southern and Timothy ‘in the northern army, the regiments in which they were engaged being on the opposing sides in the bat- tle of Seven Pines. Michael Kelly was wounded and lost two ribs in his army service. He is survived by two sons and three daughters in the west and leaves a sis- ter, Mrs. Margaret Bray, in this city, and a brother, Patrick Kelly, in Towa. Mrs. Bernard W. Pierce. Esther A. Pierce, widow of Bernard W. Pierce, who for a number of years past resided with her daughter, Mrs. John A. Bowen at No. 16 Cedar street, died this (Monday) morning at 12.20 a. m., following a long period of failing health. She was in her 100th year. Mrs, Plerce was born in North Kingston, R. I, August 81, 1814, the daughter of Joseph and Isther Ar- nold. She has been a resident of this city for the last 25 years. Mrs. Pierce married 2 Mr. Arnold for her first husband, after his death she married Bernard W. Plerce of Westerly who died in 1896. Mrs. Pierce leaves three daughters, Mrs. John A. Bowen, Mrs. E. E. Bailey and Mrs. Hannah Cran- ston, all of Norwich, and two sons, Charles A. Pierce and Edmund Arnold, both of Westerly. Mrs. Pierce in the latter vears of her life has been to- tally blind.

It reflects the live, up-to-date energl of our merchants. Yet this 1{s only one day's story of the advertising.

J. Bennett asking for some state money to be epe: upon a section of the Salem turnpike which is par- ticularly in need of attention to make 1t measure up to parts of the road on Dboth sides of it. The petition has been circulated by Merton Swan and other residents in the nelghborhood, and be- sides the farmers of that section has readily received the signatures of a large number of Norwich business men and residents who have had ex- perience in traveling this Dplece of road, summer and winter. ‘Where up-to-date road conditions are particularly sought by the sisners of the petition is on about three miles of road which is in the town of Mont- ville, and which the petitioners claim never gets any adequate attention from the town of Montville in the way of repairs, as it is off in one corner of Several Hundred Men Ask State Highway, €ommissioner to Give Attention to Section of Salem Turnpike in Mont- . — the town and is but little used by the townspeople, although largely traveled by automobilists and on the way to Gardner Lake and also on the way to the new Bast Faddam bridge across the Conmecticut. This particu- Iar section begins at what is known as the Dbig hill and extends three miles m_there, and the whole tract upon which the petitioners ask some of the state’s money to be spent extends as far as the Salem church. The town of Norwich has done good road work on one side of the Montville section and the town of Bozrah on the other, but the plece in between is described as a dust-bed in summer and a mud-hole in_winter. A Petitions on the same piece of road have been addressed o the former state highway commissioner without result, but the Norwich signers feel that they have a right to ask for more trunk line money to be used in this vicinity, as this town was doing good road building before state trunk line money was available. GROTON SENITARIUM DAMAGED BY FiRE. $15,000 Loss at Dr. E. O. Winship's— Four Patients Taken Out in Safety. About 11.30 Saturday morning fire broke out in Dr. B. O. Winship’s sani- tarium, Monument street, Groton, the damage resulting from fire and water amounting to $15,000. The fire started from a defective chimney on the north end of the main building. Dense clouds of smoke, apparenily from the chimney, had been seen some time be- fore the fire broke out, thought that soft coal was burning in the furnace Fearing that the fire would get bevond control, word was sent to New London for help. The iagaras were sent over with their auto. The members of the company helped to remove the furniture and furnishings, as it was not necessary for them to play & stream on. the building. Four patients were in the building at the time of the fire, but they were removed to a place of safe- ty. The water pressure was very low and the firemen were handicapped thereby. The sanitarium building when own- ed by Mrs. H. C. Slocomb was known as Daisy Crest and was located almost at the Monument street entrance to Fort Griswold, having a fine view of the harbor. Dr. Winship carried some insurance, but not enough to cover the loss. The patients were removed to the Lawrence hospital in New London, none the worse for their experlence. DEATH THE STEWARD. Will Call the Vineyard Laborers to Their Reward, Which Must Be Earned, Rev. J. H. Brodercik Tells Congregation. Yesterday was Septuagesima Sun- day, about seventy days before Haster. At the 7.30_o'clock mass in St. Pat- rick’s church, Rev. J. H. Broderick di- rected attention to the fact that the altar hangings and vestments were violet, the color of penitence, signifi- cant of the penitential period upon which the church was entering, before the festival of Baster. Tn accord with this was the. gospel for the Sunday ,Matt. 1-16, the story of the laborers in the vineyards. Rev. Father Broderick reminded his hearers that the deward which the Master of the household offered was to be earned by work; that Catholics must be doers, not merely hearers of the word, £o that when the steward—who is death—re- ceives the command, Call together the laborers, and pay them their hire, from the last even to the first, they will have merited the compensation which the Master has promised. Although just the ordinary Sunday low mass, read by the rector, 80 many hundreds received holy communion that Father Broderick required the as_ sistance of Rev, Father Galvin.

M. C. A. F. E. Stevens Addresses Two Largely Attended Meetings. A large number of men attended the men’s meeting Sunday afternoon at the Y. M. C. A. at 3.30 oclock. F. E. Stevens of Wesleyan university, and a former sergeant in the United States army, was the speaker, reading a seripture lesson from Daniel, 5th chap- ter, 1-7 verses, and in his talk likening the fall of 5o many voung men to that of the ancient king Belshazzar. He told of spending several years in the army and later as a secretary of the Y. M. C. A., and out of the richness of his experience told the men in plain language something of the real battle | of life, often illustrating his point by example of a noble youth yielding to the throes of sin. Selections on the Victrola were heard, which added very much to the meeting. Spoke to Boys. Before the men’s meeting Sefgeant Stevens addressed the largest boys’ meeting the Y. M. C. A. has had for some time. He chose for his subject A Soldler's Life, which proved to be very interesting. He told the boys stories of his own experiences in life s a soldier, from which he gave them helpful advice. JUNIOR C. E. RALLY. Eloven Churches Represented in Moet- ing at Norwich Town' Church. One of the most interesting gather- ings in the chapel of the First Con- gregational church as to the number Ppresent and enthusiasm shown was that of Saturday afternoon when the Junior Christian Endeavor rally was held. Devotional exercises included the hymn, Loving One Another is Christ's Command, sung by children’s sweet voices. Address by Miss Newcomb. Miss Clara Newcomb of New Lon- don, young people’s secretary of the Eastern Connecticut Branch of the W. B, F. M. gave an address, saying in sibstance: People expect’ boys and girls to be like sunshine and rain- bows wherever they go. There are five places where you belong: 1, In the home. Sunshine and rainbows make a gloomy house into a bright home. Think of ail the helpful things you can do to make mother and the brothers and sisters happy. 2, In school. It's lots of fun to tease but it's better to make life easier for the teacher and for each other. You will really like school if you bring sun- shine there. 3, In church. Just betng there helps—singing—a prayer. 4, Our Country. I pledge allegiance. You promise your service. There are many things for you to get ready to do. We need reforms, better laws, help for poor families, new laws about boys and girls working too hard and too long in unfit places. Help to wash the stains from our beautiful flag. Last, The world. There are so many things wrong in our country, yet in other countries there are werse things. Doctors, nurses, teachers, missionar- ies are needed. Boys and girls are splendid to help, but first you must learn how. By glving, praying, learn- ing, you can grow into helpful men and women. Sums Spent for Trifles. With five ribbons extended down the alsle were shown what little sums spent for trifies amount to: red ribbon 415 millions for soda; blue, 290 mil- lions for candy; sreen, 25 mitlions for chewing gum: 'the short vellow rib- bon, 11 1-2 millions for foreign mis- sions Rev. G. H. Ewing Speaks. Rev. G. H. Ewing spoke on the ad- vantages of having a Junlor society. The junior and senior societies should have a close union. There should be a Dig brother and big sister attitude. There is a good deal in these boys and girls, they are quick to respond, to learn new things, to make decisions. Believe in the children. Their team work is splendid, so are the plans that they carry out for making others hap- Y. Miss Hyde's Address. The superintendent of the local so- clety, Miss Hyde, made the closing addre: We like Junior Endeavor, she said, for we can hear from other societies’ and they can hear from us. The children here are 29 in number, we have our own little choir, the chil- dren manage the committees. Here are four reasons for having this socie- ty: 1, Children want to hear more about Jesus and how to please Him? 2. Children love to do what older peo- ple do, to learn the business way of doing 'things. 3, They love to have good times, clean good times. 4, Boys and girls love to make other people happy, it is easier to do big things by all working together. May not one re sult of this meeting be one new s clety formed for the boys and girls Eleven Churches Represented. There were ten different churches represented besides the local churc Park, §; Second, 4; Mt.

Motorcyclists Made Trip. Sunday was a blustry, raw day, with rough, uneven roads, but not so un- pleasant as to keep James Ringland, H. F. Burdick and Floyd Ledger from the motorcycle trips they have made each week. This time they went to Harttord. B. Y. P. U. Member Composes Song. During the evening service ai the Central Baptist chi Gearge A. Tur- a reception | ner sang a solo composed by Samuel o bome ml Kern, a member of the B. Y. B U, cagrel, . of -the Vanity Bags Were Used in-Ancient Phoenicia—Other Interesting Dis- coveri ‘Washingtonians have had thelr first opportunity to view and hear de- scribed results of the recent explora- tion trip of Frank Edward Johnson, traveler and lecturer. He spoke day afternoon and evening hefore the members of the National Geographic Society, at Masonic Temple, Washing- ton, D. C, on “The Phoenician, Ro- man, and Byzantine Ruins of Tunisia." The 'lecture was ilustrated with col- ored slides. The lecturer told of Dido's arrival at the Gulf of Tunis, and o fthe building of : how the Phoenicians soon caused the fame of their city to spread over the entire world, until her beauty, wealth, and influence mroused the jealousy of Rome, Were Very Fond of Jewelry. She was conquered, and what little remained atter the burning of the ci was ployed under the ground. What is known of the Carthagenians is due o excavations of “The White Fath- ers” a religious brotherhood, said Mr. Johnson. The women of the city were extreme- Iy beautiful and noble of feature; they wore their hair parted in the middle, waved over the brows and down the ears, and done up in a Psyche knot at the back of the head, and, from vanity bags discovered in the tombs it may be inferred that they rouged and pow dered as do their sisters of New York, Paris and London today, according to the lecturer. They were very fond of Jewelry, and their silks and brocades Were of finer quality than those wov- en on the looms of the mills of Lyons today. Their dyes were renowned. Why Statues Were Scare. Mr. Johnson said that, although mo- #hics, lamps, pottery, coins and iri- descent glassware were found in pro- fusion in various parts of the country he had explored, there was a_scarcity of statues. After the decadence of Rom the inhabitanis of the old Roman towns would bufld a fortress in which to take refuge in case of attack. Ce- ment was lacking, so all marble stat- ues, inseriptions, and facades of tem- ples, public buildings and triumphal arches were burnt and converted into lime. Ahead of Us. The Phoenicians were way ahead of us in the art of hardening gold, ac- cording to Mr. Johnson, who said that thelr process of hardening gold had .died out or had been lost with them. Finger rings were as popular then as they are now, and Mr. Johnson showed a ring that had -been dug up in ruins in section where formerly the Phoenicians were lords and masters. Numerous pictures showing Roman ar- chitecture and highways, denotiug tae spread of the Roman empire over northern Africa, were shown. For the greater part df the last five years Mr. Johnson has been engaged in original research, exploration and archaeological work in Tunisia. In the spring of 1913 he rode on horse- back from extreme southern Tunisia to Carthage, following as closely as possible the ancient Roman road that led from Tripoli to Carthage, and stop- ped to study and explore many hither- to unknown Roman ruins.
