Smith of Noank, Fred J. Brown of Lebanon and A. N. Lanphere of Wa- terford.

The guests began to arrive shortly atier the noon hoyr and the interval before the serving of luncheon was spent in strolling about the beautiful 4|grounds and chatting on the broad verandas of the spacious hotel Promptly at one o'clock came the call to the grill room which was particu- iarly attractive with a lavish dlsplay of aytumn follage and flowers. The table decorations were also particular- Iy effective in their arrangement. Around the room were arranged a variety of signs, fashioned it was sald by a famous Lyme artist which fur- nished one of the features of the gath- ering.

Wyckoff Made Address at Y. M. C, A. Mesting. There was a good sized gathering at the Y. M. C. A open air service held Sunday afternoon at 4.45 oclock on the Buckingham Memorial grounds. Gen- eral Secretary Edwin Hill led the ser- vice, which was opened with the eing- ing ‘of All Hail the Power of Jesus Name, Bringing in_the Sheaves and I Love to Tell the Story. Prayer was offered by Secretary Hill and the sing- ing of the hymns Rock of Ages, and There is & Fountain Filled With Blood followed. Rev. Herbert J. Wyckoff, pastor of the Second Congregational _church, made the address, taking for his topic The Pear] of Great Price. Ho likened the kingdom of God to a merchant searching for pearls and who found one pearl of greater value than any of the others, so that he sold all he had that he might possess it. The true value of a pearl lies not in its size nor shape, but in the light which seems to shine from within. The true value of the Christian's-life lies in the- light that shines from within. It costs something to possess a great pearl, but if it was the one supreme thing that we desired in this world we would sacrifice many things that we might possess it. The kingdom of God, the one great thing for us, the pear] that God is offering us, must be purchased at the cost of sacrifice. The congregation listened with much interest to the message which was pre- sented In a straightforward and ear- nest manner by Rev. Mr. Wyckoff, The service closed with the singing of Follow On. Secretary Hill announced during the service that provided it is not too cold there will be two more open air ser- vices at Buckingham Memorial grounds efore the season closes and the speakers will be announced later. Roy Phillips presided at the portable organ. CONNECTICUT CROPS BETTER IN 1914, U. S.

Burke, acting principal of Waltham, "Mass, ' high school, was among the tourists who had some stir- ring experiences while abroad this summer. Mr. Burke is a native of Norwich, son the late Horace Burke, a Civil war veteran, With his mother, Mrs, George Reynolds, his home is now in Waltham. When in Norwich they resided on Chestnut street. Mr. Burke was graduated from the Norwich Free Academy in 85. or several years he has taken par- ties of teachers and others abroad each summer. This vear they started late in June and arrived home Sunday, Sept. 6. There were 13 Waltham mem- bers in the party. Alter reaching Italy they began to hear of the general uurest in Europe, but saw nothing of it, so were not con- cerned. In Lucerne, Switzerland, how- ever, on July 30, traveling parties com- ing ' from Germany reported that country in a state of active mobiliza- tion, that soldiers were everywhere to be seen, that all railway statioi oridges, culverts and tunnels were se- curely guarded. Later they learned that Germany had begun to mobilize some five days before she declared war against any nation. Instantly all Europe was up in arms, every phase of civic and political ac- tivity became disorderly -and irregular. As Switzerland, though a neutral country, was surrounded on all sides by countries destined to become in- volved in the awful struggle, and as her own troops began at once to mo- bilize to protect %er neutrality, the Burke tourists decided to get out if possible and to England. The Paris route was the shortest; but learning that Paris was all con- fusion, the tourists finally decided to try for Holland. This meant a dash directly across Germany. But on the route where their tickets would take then. no trains were running, except military trains. The only line open was that by the Fulg of the Rhine and the Black Forest. The tourists started at 6 a. m., and il went well until they reached the German porder. Here their train was halted and a German official announced Kaiser’s and rested, they decided to start for England, as things were looking dark and they could get no money on their travelers' checks. However, the hotel proprictor was merciful, taking _the checks for their hotel bills, although he sald he did not know when he would get his money on them. Took Boat to England. England had declared war on Ger- many and not knowing how long the English channel and North gea would Dbe open, the tourists hurried to Flush- ing and took the boat. They could get no berths reserved on the boat, nor any guarantee that boat or train would Tun. After many delays and hardships the party reached London. CHARGES AGAINST CAPTAIN OF STEAMER NORTH LAND Went Ashore Last June Near Bartlett’s - Reef - Lightship. A charge of unskillfulneés has been preferred against Capt. Alfred John- son, master of steamer North Land, which went ashore at Bartlett Reef on June 4 Jast. by United States In- spectors Withey and Stewart. Cap-. tain Johnson has been directed to ap- pear Dbefore the inspectors to show cause why his license should not be suspended. This action was taken on the conclusion of the investigation conducted by the inspectors, which was made public Saturday. The North Land was stranded at 1124 p. m., durlng thick fog. The North Land, owned. at Boston, is a ship of 3,252 gross tons. She was bound from New York, sailing at 5.06 P, m. on June 4, for Portland, Me. carrying 75 passengers and a cargo of merchandise. It was said at the time that the pilot had mistaken the fog signal of Bartlett Reef light vessel for the sig- nal at Little Gull Island, This is sub- stantially the reason for the accident as_shown by the Investigation. The passengers on the North Land and their baggage were safely trans- ferred to New Lqndon, Conn., by the wrecking steamer Tasco, and ieft there at 520 a, m. on June 5th on & special train for Portland. Me. _ The North Land was floated at about 3 p. m. on the same day, proceeding to ew London, Conn, and thence to New York, N. Y.. under her own steam and arriving at the latter port at 6.52 a. m. on June 6th. Upon examination in drydock after she reached New York, ‘the North Land was foung to have’ sustained damages estimated at $20,000. In their finding the inspectors state that they are of the opinion that from the time Captain Johnson stopped the North Lend, namely at 1054 p. m., becausc of his uncertainty as to Whether or not the fog signal which he was then hearing was that on Lit- tle Gull Island light station, he should have taken the precaution of sounding at frequent intervals so long as any aoubt remained in' his mind as to the exact position of his ship and we con- sider that Captain Johnson was negli- cent and displayed inexcusably inac- curate judgment in turning the North Land around twice while uncertain as to her true position without doing so, as we are satisfied that frequent soundings would have indicated to him that the North Land was then for to the northward of her true course She that only German citizens would be permitted to proceed. The travelers got off the train, which slid away and left them, 37 forlorn mortals, with 42 sult cases, beside the track, a quarter ©of a mile from the station. Marooned in Station. Mr. Burke, being the only member of the party who spoke German, went back end secured permission for the tourists to go to the station. Not a porter was in sight—all had gone to the war. It was noon, but there was no lunch counter. All German stations are surrounded by fences, and the par- ty was not permitted to go outside. They were, however, given permis- slon to send to a small hotel across the street for food. The travelers soon exhausted the entire supply—except beer. Mr. Burke stated that an ex- hausted beer supply would be an im- possibility in any German hotel, even in war time! Rode in Cattle Car. . After several hours orders were re- celveq to let the Americans proceed. The next train was a small one and was packed; but the station master put on two freight cars, one of them o cattle car. The party piled in their suit cases and used them for seats. They soon had to change at a crowd- ed station. In the awful rush three suit cases were left on the piatform. At the next station the assistant co: ductor left to go back for them. Neither guard nor cases was seen again! Arrived at 1 a. m. After all sorts of hardships and con- fusion, the party reached Wiesbaden at 1.30 a. m, six hours late. As no carriages were about, they walked to their hotel, succeeding in rousing the night porter, who awakened the pr prietor. The latter prepared a hasty lunch for the tired, hungry, dirty late- comers. Not a Boat on the Rhine. As the following day was to be the last for regular passenger trains in Germany, they made an early start by train for Cologne along the banks of the Rhine, where not-a passenger boat was running. Every factory and near- ly every store was closed. Women and children crowded to the fence at every station. Trains crowded with German soldiers came and went. The country was war mad. Every man between 13 and 45 had been ordered to his resi- ment. The pathetic partings at every station were heart-rending. Cologne was crowded with soldiers and frantic people. But to the Burke tourists’ surprise, their hotel was open and ready for them. They tarried only long enough to get one square meal, then started for Amsterdam. A Merciful Landlord. Here, after two days to get cooled between Cornfle'd Point light vessel and Little Guil Island light. BYRNE BROTHERS IN “AN AERIAL HONEYMOON”" John F.'s New P Well Received in Providence. In a new play, which he has writ- ten and called An Aerial Honeymoon. John F. Byrne and the famous Byrne Brothers, opened the season last week at a Providence theatre. Of the opening performance = the Providence Tribune said: There is plenty of life to the per- formance, and the continuous applause was evidence of the approval of the audience. The scenery is one of the featurues of the play, and as the cu tain rose on the second act, applause greeteq the scenery, which pictured huge aeroplane in mid air surrounded by _clouds. The aeroplane stunts of James A. Byrne and Frank Wagner were amu ing and the deceptive trunks and fit- tings through which they tumbled held the close attention of the audience. The show is a typical Byrne Brothers rroduction and is probably their best effort. The comely girls who formed the chorus are well selected for their mu- sical ability as well as thelr appear- ance, and the music is catchy. The singing of Eddle Akin and C. A. Figg is of the best, and their work receives the applause they merit. Another specialty is the shadow drawings by John F. Byrne with singing accom- paniment, and this number was also an _applause producer. The work of Miss Frances Folsom as the bride is in keeping with the rest of the show, while John F. Byrne as the groom plavs has part with a finish that is delightfu JAMMED BETWEEN CARS AT OCEAN PIER TERMINAL William MecAuliffe, Foreman, Hurt in Construction Work at New London. William McAuliffe foreman of the company which has the sub-contract for the stone work at the ocean pier terminal in East New London, was severely injured Saturday afternoon, when he was jammed between two stone cars, McAuliffe, was between two cars of a string, trying to make a coupling. The cars were in motion and as they were rounding a curve, McAuliffe was caught between the ends of the cars and jammed. An examination showed that thé in- juries consisted of sprains of the right and lefr hips and of the muscles of the right side. Preached at Gales Ferry.
