The merits of the Sunday school un- ion were freely discussed at a meeting held Tuesday evening in St. Andrew’s Episcopal church, for the purpose of making plans for the formation of a Sunday school association for this dis- trict, to ‘include Trinity Eplscopal, Christ Bpiscopal and St. Andrew’s Episcopal churches of Norwich, and St. James’ church of Poquetanuck and Grace church at Yantic. There was a fair sized attendance and much inter- est was evidenced In the discussion. Rev. F. Johns Bohanan, rector of the church, conducted the devotional exer- clses, and then the meeting was turned over to Rev. George B. Gilbert of Mid- dletown, fleld secretary, who acted as <chairman. Rev. Mr. Gilbert introduced as the speaker of the evening Rev. J. W, Lord of Hartford, who gave a general out- line of the work done by the Hartford Sunday school union. In his opening remarks Rev. Mr. Lord laid stress on the importance of religious training. Teaching is the greatest privilege you can have, he said, and it is your duty to_respond. Rev. Mr. Lord said that the Hart- ford union was organized six years ago and that at the time of organization it was agreed to hold three conferences each year. This plan has been car- ried out so far, although the pro- gramme has been modified somewhat. He then gave an outline of the pro- gramme followed at .the conferences, which opened with an exhibit by the Sunday school'commission at 5.30, fol- lowed by a supper at 6.30, a business meeting at 7.30, concluding with an ad- dress. The first three years there were several speakers at the confer- ences, but it was thought best to have only one speaker, followed by general discussion leaders, and this plan has been followed out during the last three years. The second division of the un- ion is the teacher training classes and the speaker went on to explain the work carried on in these classes. Sev- eral of those present asked questions relating to the union, and they were answered by Rev. Mr. Lord. Rev. Mr. Gilbert, chairman, then turned the meeting over to Rev. Mr. Bohanan, who was one of the execu- tive officers of the former Norwich un- ion, and those present were invited to express their sentiments regarding the organization of a union. here. A mo- tion was made and carried that the committee of five rectors appointed at a recent meeting be continued to a future meeting, when they will report on the question of organization, and that the committee be augmented by one layman from each of the five churches interested. A vote of thanks was tendered Rev. Mr, Lord for his kindness and co-operation. Ice cream, cocoa and :cake were Berved under the direction of Mrs. Bo- hanan, who was assisted by the teach- ers of the Sunday school. = During the evening Rev. Mr. Gilbert called attention to the convention to be held in Hartford on May 1L British Warship = Captures German Steamer.

Donohue, compensa- tion commissioner for this district, filed on Tuesday his findings in two cases recently heard before him. The American Strawboard Co., of Norwich is directed to pay $740.98 compensation for the death of Frank Ferens who died on ' September 25, 1914 in a few hours after his skull had been fractured when he - was struck by a breaking boom while at work unloading coal from a barge. It is found that the dependent of the deceased is his wife, who lives in Lomza, Russia, with their four chil- dren. As she is an alien dependent she receives one half the usual amount under the compensation act. The compensation is to be paid for 312 weeks at $2.61 per week, which com- muted into a lump sum and discount- ed at the rate of 4 per cent, amounts to the sum named.” Out of this the company may pay directly $75 to J. J. Desmond as attorney for the claimant and 325 to Vladislaw Cuplitzky of this city whom the claimant designat- ed to act as her legal representative in this country. In the case of William J. Kearns of New London, an employe and chaim- ant against the New London Marine Iron Works Co.,- Commissioner Dono- hue directs that the company pay com- pensation for four weeks at $5.98 per week, together with the medical ser- vices rendered by Dr. Ross Black, who was the physician furnished by the company during the first 30 days following the injury. The employe received an injury on February 18, 1915 by running a sliver into the lit- tle finger of his left hand while plan- ing the deck of a boat. The wound became infected and blood poisoning followed causing disability over a con- siderable period. From the testimony of Dr. Black at the hearing and also other testimony the commissioner concluded that the period of disability was longer than should have been, owing to the careless manner in which the injury was orig- inally treated, his failure promptly to report the injury and his subsequent failure to follow the instructions of Dr, Black and for his free use of ‘in- toxicati liquors during the disabili- ty. Without these circumstances the disability would probably not have ex- tended over Six weeks. Compensation Agreements. Two agreements under the . work- men’s compensation act were filed on Tuesday with/ the clerk of the su- perior court follows: Charles ‘B. Swan of North Stoning- ton, employer, and George Jones, em- ploye, head and scalp wound on March 13th, compensation $5 per week dur- i disability. illiam A. ‘Slater Mills of Jewstt City, employer, and Andrew _Pizzo, employe, left hand crushed and blood poisoning on April 1st, compensation $6 per week during incapacity from April 16th, Forest Fires In Pennsylvania.

Clarke was the authority. for the statement Tuesday that in all probability cargoes of lumber and other merchan- dise not requiring the Yprotection of warehouses will be unloaded from steamships lying beslde the big new pler at New London, late this sum- mer. Bu that time the structure will be in such a state of completion that it will be entirely possible for liners to make use of it. Thus, before the terminal i{s fully completed, the state will be drawing a revenue from its investment. One of the most interesting pro- cesses in connection with the buiid- ing of the pler is now going on. It is the construction of the re-enforced concrete floor units, which will con- stitute the surface of the pler and over which a layer of ashphalt will be placed. Each unit measures 22 feet and. ten inches in length, six feet in width and 15 inches in depth. Be- side supporting its own weight it will carry a load of 600 pounds per square foot. Each unit is numbered and a record of the date of casting and the kind of cement used is kept for future reference. At the present time a force of about 100 men is employed on the terminal construction. Inside of a month hy- draulic dredging, one of the features of the whole work, will be com- menced. Materials dredged from the slip areas will be pumped through the cut at the entrance to the terminal, a distance of more than 200 feet, to the filled areas east of the Central Ver- mont tracks. By the same method the space be- tween the granite walls of the pier bulkheads will be filled in solid, the [<] “m whole covering an area 1,000 feet in length and 100 feet ingwidth. A top dressing of heavy sand and gravel taken by steam shovel from the term- inal will cover the filling of dredged material. In the opinion of Resident Engineer Clarke the substructure of the pier will be completed late in the sum- mer. It is doubtful if the warehouses and steel sheds which it is proposed to place upon. it will be finished this year. However, it will be possible to operate the terminal for certain kinds of bulk cargoes. before any super- stfucture is erected. PUTTING THE BRAKES ON IN RIGHT PLACE! Would Save Many Disasters in Life, Says Rev. Dr. Slocum. The final shop talk at the Interna- tional Silver Co. factory this season was held Tuesday at noon under Y. M. C. A. auspices and the speaker, Re?. Joel B. Slocum, D. D., pastor of the Central Baptist church, took for his subject, A Runaway on Down- grade. Dr. Slocum said good many dis- asters in life woul be avoided if only we could realize where the breaka should be applied. He told the life stories of two men who illustrated this principle. One of these, he said, come to this country several years ago from a town in the Carpathians. He had just enough money to reach Pittsburgh. Had a terrible experience there. Left Pittsburgh with a prayer book and a revolver given him by a dying man. Obtained work as a miner. In a strike at the mines soldiers were called. ~This man -was beaten into in- sensibllity, then arrested for carrying @ concealed weapon and after .a jail experience of several months was tried in ten minutes and fined $100, costs and three months. Took him six months to work out the fine. Became & tramp, but always worked for his meals wherever he could. In Chicago had some unpleasante experiences. Man told him to step.into a .saloon and up to_the bar if he wants a job. A trap door opened, he fell into the cellar. Walked into the alley, arrest- ed' by policeman and Jjailed for six months, In Minnesota worked as a farmer ‘and paid his_way down the In Illinois -got work in°a lumbter yard;- fired next day be- cause-a horse ‘was . stolen -during the night. Next worked as a miner. His comrade. was killed in a cave-in and he quit. Got work as a cattleman. ‘Was robbed and tripped off a moving train. People of the little town found and. nursed ‘him back to 1ife. ¥For the first time since landing in this country he discovered ‘real human -be- ings with hearts of compasion. For the first time in several years he was given a real chance. And he made good wi remarkable -speed. That man is néw Dr. Edward A. Steiner, professor in Grinnell college, Towa. It my pleasure to meet him. He is o most charming gentleman.
