GREENEVILLE Mrs. Patrick Bray, 82, Died Sunday— Kite Flying Beloming a Fad Here— Other Local Notes. Mrs. Patrick Bray, 82 years, of the oldest residents here, peace- fully passed away at her home at 238 Central avenue, Sunday morning, at 415 o'clock, after an liiness of about three months. Death was due to old age. The deceased was born in County Clair, Ireland, the daughter of James O, Kelley and Bridget Griffin, in 1832, and when a girl of 17 years of age she came to this country, locating in Greeneville, where she had since re- sided. She was married to Patrick Bray in rthe year of 1853 by Rev. Daniel Kelley in St. Mary’s church and they were the parents of eight chil- dren, John and James, who have pass- ed away, and the following surviving sons and daughters. Joseph, Patrick, Michael, Katherine and Mary Bray and Mrs. Cornelius Murphy. Mrs. Bray is also survived by one brother and sev- eral grandchildren. She was a_ devoted member of St. Mary’s_church, taking much interest in it. She was one of the best known and liked residents here, having a wonderful faculty for making and re- taining friendsships. In her death the community suffers the loss of an in- spiring personality. She proved to be a loving and kind mother, one, Choir to Give Operetta. The choir of St. Andrew's church are soon to begin rehearsing for an operetta, which will be presented in the early fall. The operetta is a very uniquely written nautical yarn in two acts called The Bo'sn’s Bride. or All Aboard the Barnacle. Including the principals and other characters there will be a chorus of over 30. The mu- sic is very fine; the stage settings will be unusually effective and an elaborate amateur production is anticipated. Al- fred Brucksch is the musical director, and a choir committee will arrange and perfect all other details for the operetta. Personals. Fred Powers of Sprague spent Sun- day here, Henry Senay of New London spent Sunday here, Maurice Coughlin and Joseph Cur- ran walked to Jewett City Sunday. Miss May Hollinsworth, who has been Il with the mumps, is somewhat improved, J. Bradford Ricketts, Milton Osborn and Walter McNeeley walked to Jew- ett City Sunday afternoon. John Hollingsworth, who is con- fined in the Backus hospital, was con- siderably improved Sunday.

Irene The circus held under the joint aus- pices of the Young Men's Christian as- soclation and the Third company, C. A. C. C. N. G, at the state armory, came to a very successtul close on Saturday evening. Although the at- tendance was not as large as on Fri- day, the opening night, there was marked appreciation of the various at- tractions and the audience left the armory about 10.30 o'clock well sat- isfled with the programme, which was excellently carried out. Included in those attending were nearly fifty peo- ple from Westerly. As a special drawing card of the evening those in charge of the circus had arranged for a tug of war contest between the Norwich and Westerly team and a team representing the S. B. Thomas Hose company of Wes- terly. In both bouts the honors were carried off by the Norwich and Wes- terly five. In the first pull the Nor- wich and Westerly team jumped the knot 1 1-2 inches and the Westerly hose boys succeeded in getting a half inch of this back, but the trolleymen held the knot to the inch mark. In the second contest the Hose company got a lead of 1-2 an inch which they held for a few seconds but the trol- leymen recovered this half inch and added another inch to it on a strong heave and succeeded in stretching this lead out to the two inch mark when time was called. Intense interest was shown in both contests. Physical Di- rector O. H. Nickerson was starter and Hans Bauck officiated as time- keeper. As on the previous evening the side show did a big business and the booths were also_generously patronized, es— pecially the ice cream booth. Miss Braley’s art gallery proved a centre of attraction and a number visited the shooting sallery. For a second time the electric polka gained decided favor with the au- dience as did also the pyramid and parallel bar workers. The flambeau drill was splendidly carried out and TUG OF WAR FEATURE EVENT At Y. M. C. A.

The Johnson-Willard fight livened up considerably over Friday night's exhibition and lasted an extra round. In the first round Johnson (Harold Gillesple) lifted Willard (James Is- bister) Off his feet, but in the next round Willard retaliated by rushing the big smoke across the ring, Wil- lard also got Johnson in the next two rounds for several hard punches, one of them landing just above the belt line and another on the side of Johnson's face. During the third round the fighters clinched and the referee, Charlie’ Chaplin (Ed Jewett) _who rushed in between them caused John- son to take the count by tapping him on the head with his came Floyd Aubrey and Kent Ellis, the young wrestlers again succeeded in putting each other down and the clown tum- blers gave a meritorious exhibition of halr-raising feats. The ring was located in the centre of the armory ficor, the seats being arranged around it in the form of a circle, while the fifteen boxes were lo- cated on the south side. The boxes were decorated in red, white and blue while suspended above the ring were flags of all nations, and the booths were also very prettily decorated. The decorating was in charge of a com- mittee of three comprising Physical Director Nickerson, Leonard Hill and Hans Bauck. The patronesses were: Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. Bela P. Learned, F. A. Mitchell, Mrs. H. M, Poliock, Mrs. C. L. Richards, Mrs, L. O. Smith. Physical Director Nickerson feels very grateful to all who in any way assisted in making the circus a suc- cess and is especially grateful to the young ladies who entered heartily into the circus spirit William Maynard, who took the part of a clown, and Ralph Martin, who was one of the cowboys, were unin- tentionally omitted from the list of names published Saturday morning. repeated club Oliver Mrs. REFECTORY PLANS MEET WITH AFPROVAL For Women'’s College at New London —Work to Begin at Once. At a mesting of the building com- mittee of the trustees of Connecticut College for Women held at the college office in New London Friday _after- noon, plans prepared for the refectory or dining hall to be erected at once on the college site were approved. The architect's design provides for a handsome structure which will be a distinct addition to the architectural beauty of the college buildings. A space of 70 feet intervenes between the Lee and Prentice dwelling houses which are to be utilized in the con- struction of the refectory. The build- ing which will connect the former res- idences into one large structure will be 85 feet in width, with two stories and attic. It has been suggested to call the new building Thames hall. The entire space on the ground floor with the exception of a part of the northerly end, where there will be a cloak room and pantry, will be devoted to a dining hall. The second story of the connecting structure will be subdivided into six suites, each having a study, bedroom and lavatory. These are to be oceu- pled by members of the faculty, There will aiso be a general bathroom and two private baths. Maids’ rooms will occupy the attic, In the Lee house the rear room ad- joining the dining hall will be con- verted into a cloak room, with tollet attached. The remainder of _this house will probably be occupied by President Sykes. Three new rooms will be added on the third story. The present kitchen and dining room of the Prentice house will be converted into a large kitchen. The parlor will be used as a general reception room. The chambers in this dwelling will be left intact as suites for the faculty a?g three rooms will be added In the attic. Protection For Richards Building Of- fices. Since the recent burglaries in the city a pair of doors which are locked nights has been put in on the landing of the stairway in the Richards build- ing. These prevent many Intruders from getting up into the hallway from which access could be gained to the oces in the bullding. At Lord’s Point, Henry W.

AND MRS, BISHOP RUN DOWN BY TRAIN Their Automobile Struck Near Grand Rapids—Mrs. Bishop in Hospital With Serious Injuries, Rev. Edwin Whitney Bishop, D. D, and his wife were in a serious auto- mobile accident near Grand Rapids, Mich,, last Tuesday of which word has just been recelved here, where Rev. Dr. Bishop has relatives and is well known. He is a native of this city and a graduate of the Norwich Free Academy. The following report is made in the Grand Rapids Herald of Wednesday morning last: Mrs, Edwin W. Bishop, 35 years old, wife of Rev. Dr. Bishop, pastor of Park Congregational church, was se- riously injured and Dr. Bishop was badly cut about the head and body when their automobile was struck by a Michigan Central freight train at Bowen station, seven miles southeast of the city, shortly before 4 o'clock vesterday afternoon. Mrs. Bishop is in U. B. A. hospital with a badly dislocated left hip, an in- jured right shoulder, and bruises about the body. Her face was also badly scratched. Dr. Bishop was cut on the right ear, right arm, and about the legs. He is suffering considerably from shock at his home, 438 College avenue, S. E. Dr. and Mrs. Bishop left Grand Rap- ids about 3.30 o'clock for a spin Into ihe tountry, the latter driving the car, But the Kalamazoo avenue road. A view of the Michigan Central track is shut off from the approach by a build- ing standing close to the right-of-way. Unaware of the danger. Mrs. Bishop drove the car toward the track at a rate of about 10 miles per hour. When about 30 feet from the crossing she first saw a freight train but a few vards away. As she was unable to check the machine her husband quick- Iy put his foot on the accelerator and increased the power. The automobile was' just clearing the track when the engine struck the machine full on the rear left wheel, throwing the car 10 feet from the track, and turning it about end for end. Mrs. Bishop was thrown from the car, striking the ground about 20 feet away. Dr. Bish- op was buried beneath the wrecked car but managed to extricate himself. Jacob Noorman, proprietor of a gro- cery store at Bowen Station, witness- ed the accident and was the first to reach Mrs. Bishop. He attempted to lft the injured woman from the ground but she was in such pain that he was unable to raise her to a sitting position. Following the crash, John Howland of Jackson, engineer of the freight train, brought his train to a stop about one-eighth of a mile away and backed the cars to the scene of the accident. Mrs. Bishop was carried in- to the cabocse and with her husband was brought to the Wealthy street crossing of the railroad. The police ambulance carried the injured to U. B. A, hospital. where they were at- tended by Dr. Collins H. Johnston. Mrs. Bishop was found to have sus- tained a dislocated left hip. A portion of the hip bone had been crowded up- ward toward the spins and she suf- fered intense pain. Her right shoul- der was badly bruised, although an examination showed that no bones were broken. Her face was badly cut and she was bruised about the body. Although suffering considerable pain from the cuts which he sustalned Dr. Bishop refused medical attention until his wife had been cared for. He was finally persuaded to go to his home in the automobile of Eugene D, Conger. No intimation of internal injuries in the case of Mrs. Bishop were discov- ered last night. according to the state- ment of Dr. Johnston. Dr. Bishop stated vesterday that neither Le nor his wife received warn- ing of the approach of the train and his_statement was borne out by those of Mr. Noormams, who was the first to reach Mrs. Bishop. his son, Casper. 16 years old, the only other witness of the accident, and Jay W. Davis, a farmer living near the station. Dr. Bishop’s Statement. Dr, Bishop's version of the accident is as_ follows: “Mrs. Bishop and I started out for a little recreation, after a hard day, and thought we would ride into the country a short distance. We were jn_our car—I have had it less than a month—and drove south. We had gone perhaps five miles and were at the Rowen crossing when the ac- cident happened. Going south there is a slight curve at that point where there is a rise in the ground of some 15 feet. The approach from the rail- road is hidden by a building. We were almost on the tracks before we heard or saw the oncoming train. I heard no bell or whistle and before | we knew of a train, there it whs with- in 30 feet of us. “We had absolutely no warning. In- stantly T realized the only possible chance of escape was through the ac- cellerator, and 1 applied it, but there was no time even for that to respond before wo received the full force of the train running, I should think, 30 miles an hour. The engine struck the car full on the left rear wheel. Had it been the fore wheel I have no doubt both of us would have been killed. ‘The car was turned way around, and hurled perhaps ten feet and 1 was thrown under the wreckage. 1 was able to pull myself out in a minute and realized that I was sound so far as breaks were concerned. I heard my wite's cries and found her 20 feet away, and In great pain. She was un- conscious a few moments but rallled before the train backed up to bring us back to the city. My injuries are un- important, and I hope developments will prove Mrs, Bishop is not in the danger I feared when I found her on the hard ground where the terrific im- pact of the train had thrown her.” The five passenger car gwned by Dr. Bishop was demolished. Only a twist- ed mass of wreckage remained atter the accident, The lives of both Dr. Bishop and his wife were saved by the formers presence of mind in increasing his speed when Mrs. Bishop saw the ap- proaching train. As it would have been impossible to stop the car or turn ft aside without running upon the track, she attempted to cross be- fore the train. Had the pllot struck the car in the middle rather than upon the rear, death would undoubted- 1y have resulted to both passengers. CHARGED WITH ASSAULT WITH INTENT TO KiLL. Frank Spencer Bound Over from New London Police Court. Frank Spencer, charged with assault with intent to kiil Thomas Connolly in Elfenbein’s saloon, 28 Bank street, New London, on March 31, was bound over to the 'superior court Saturday from the police court in that city. In de- fault of $1,000 bonds, he was commit- ted to jail. At the hearing on April 6, Connolly testified to being assaulted by Spencer, but of being unable to ses what weapon cut him.

Society A meeting of especial inter held Friday evening by the Xens so- clety of the First Baptist church, with about 30 members present, The meeting was called to order at 8.15 o'clock, by the president, Mrs. John B. Oat. The regular reports were read and approved. Three mem- bers were voted Into the society and three new names were proposed for membersship, A good report was read by Mrs. Avery E. Park, chairman of the enter- tainment committee, upon the recent successful evening held by the Xens. The president announced it was the ninth annual meeting and asked for the annual reports. The secretary, Harry Howard, gave a full and inter- esting report of the years pleasure and work. He reported that many calls had been made upon the soclety during the past years. These had been met and assistance had been given several times*when required. The report spoke of the many social evenings -enjoved, also of the annual banquet held in January and the pic- nic held in August, the two principal annual social events of the society Mrs. Charles G. Cobb, financial se retary, gave the satisfactory report that nearly all dues were paid. There was a good increase in the member- ship, with a good percentage in the at- tendance at the meetings. The finances are in the capable hands of W. Smith Allen, whose report is always of the best as he always has a “balance on hand.” Friday evening was no ex- ception to this rule as Treasurer Al- len reported a large amount expended during the year, but still had a “bal- ance on hand” of about $100. It was voted that the officers should have a substantial raise in their salaries. Following the reports was the an- nual election of officers, resulting as follows: President, Mrs. John B. Oat; vice president, Stephen S. Peckham: secretary, Harry Howard: financial secretary, Mrs. Charles G. Cobb; treas- urer, W. Smith Allen; pianist, Miss Elizabeth Park; sick committee, W. J. Koonz, Mrs, Herbert Willey and Mrs. Fred Wilson. The Xens are very much gratified over the record of the past nine years, and satisfied that the coming tenth year will do much for the good of the society. A pleasing literary entertainmeht enjoyed by all consisted of readings by Mrs, Arthur R. Blackledge and Mrs. John J. Parsons and recitaations by Mrs. Park. It was in charge of the following committee: Mrs. Awery Park, chairman; Mrs. Arthur Arm- strong, Mrs. Samuel Billings, ~Mrs. John J. Parsons and Mrs. Harry How- ard. st was LOW SUNDAY. The First Commandment Theme of Rev, Myles P. Galvin's Sermon at St. Patrick’s Church. Yesterday was Low Sunday. At St. Patrick’s church, Rev. Myles P. Gal- vin began a series of sermons on the Ten Commandments, considering the first, I am the Lord thy God; Thou shalt not have strange 80ds before Me, This commandment implies both a positive and a negative obligation; the duty to worship God and to refrain from sin. The former duty manifests itself in faith, hope and love. The preacher devoted Sunday’s sermon to the toplc of Faith. At the offertory, Organist F. L. Far- rell played the prelude to Lohengrin with customary skill, producing some interesting effects and contrasts in registration. Delegates to Brith Abraham Conven- tion.
