The musical program follows: Vio- in a raging fire which broke out about 9 o'clock in the Lincoln club build- ing, jdst off Merchants avenue and located midway between the Pratt building on the corner of Merchants avenue and Hunter's avenue and the Graham building on Merchants ave- nue. The alarm was quickly spread and the Ponemah mill's fire depatt- ment responded. By the time they had arrived the Lincoin club was doomed and the flames were rapidly spreading to nearby blocks on three sides. Assistance was asked from the Norwich fire department and at 9.53 o'clock Fire Chief Howard L, Stanton sent the auto chemical company in re- sponse to the call. The auto made fast time and arrived on the scene very shortly afterwards. As soon as Chief Stanton saw the magnitude of - | the fire he telephoned for Engine com- pany No. 1. The three horses on the engine had a hard pull, but they made excellent time and the engine was on the scene and at work a few minutes Dbefore 11 o'clock. Four lines of hose were laid two from the engine which coupled onto the hydrant opposite Chartler's grocery store near the top of the Merchants avenue hill and two from the hydrant opposite Benoit's drug store, in the Pratt building. A few minutes after the fire broke out the Lincoln club was a veritable furnace and the flames had caught the big block in the lane owned by Mrs. John Anderson. This was soon a mass of flames and within a short time all ghe walls had collapsed and the roofffhad fallen in. From here the flames jumped to Dion's barn and to Graham’s building, which were both totally destroyed. The horses and wagons in the barn were gotten out safely, but two tons of hay in the loft were consumed. On the ground floor of the Graham block was the sadoon occupied by Hen- ry Mercier and the shoe store con- ducted by George Coucher. The ten- ements on the upper floors were oc- cupied by Henry Mercier, Philias Charon, and Joseph Mercier and fam- illes. Henry Mercier succeeded in getting some of his furniture out of his tenement and this was stored with other belongings in the Wequonnoc school yard across the street. He how- ever saved his automobile and his wagons. Mr. Mercier's loss is very heavy as his entire stock of liquors was destroyed. He stated that he had $1,500 in cash locked in his desk in the saloon, but was unable to reach the desk ,owing to the intense heat and the rapidity with which the flames spread. The next building that caught was the Dion building, owned by Phileas Dion, who used the ground floor as a Erocery store and a part of the upper iin solo, E. Heinrich; piano selectign, Miss Blanche Fontaine; duet, E, Helk: rich, violin, Miss Mary Bergeron, pif- no; _ vocal ' solos, Wiifred Labrecque, P. Fournier, Miss C, Tellier, Jack Chance. Those present were Misses Agnes, Mary, Edna and Luella Bergeron, Miss Charlotte Them, Miss Eva Labrecque, Miss Blanche Fontaine, Misses Corinne and Rose Tellier of Taftville, Miss Regina Clocher of Baltic, Edward Heinrich, Wilfred Labrecque, Jack Chance, Joseph Belair of Taftville and Peter Fournier of Baltic.

Fre- chette, who conducted a meat market in the lane between Mercier's store and the Lincoln club, lost his store and eatire stock.. From the rear of the burning build- ings on Merchants' avenue the fire spread to the small building just north of Marsan's grocery, owned by J. C. Marsan and occupied as a millinery store by Miss Amanda Belair. This building burned down within half an hour, leaving only a mass of smoking ruins. The block owned by J. C. Mar- san was the next building to go. This seemed to catch on all sides at once and was soon reduced to a pile of ruins. The major part of the ground floor was used by Mr. Marsan as a grocery store and the remaining sec- tion as a shoe and clothing store by Edouard Adams. On the upper flooTs ‘were tenements occupied by Mr. Mar- san and family and by Mr. Adams. The barn in the rear of this building was also claimed by the raging flames. The entire stock in both stores as well as the furniture on the upper floors were totally destroved. Bouth of Mr. Marsan's building was the Plon block, and this also was soon in flames. At midnight only a section of the south wall remained standing, and to all appearances this was doom- ed. The store on the ground floor was occupled by Mr. Pion as a hardware establishment, and he resided upstairs. This, like the Marsan building, was three stories high, and in addition to the tenement occupied by Mr. Pion and family, there were tenements occupled by two French familige. In the rear of this building was a large tenement block, recently built, and owned by Phileas Dion. This was destroyed, together with the furniture of the several tenants. Another block owned by Mr. Dion, three stories high and occupied by A. Deslandes as a meat merket, Mrs. Sarah Hasler as a confectionery store and residence, and by Clifford Dion as a residence, was threatened at several times, but it was thought at midnight that this building Would escape with only a bad scorch- ng. One of the last buildings to catch was the big Pratt building owned by George Pratt and located at the junc- tlon of Hunters avenue and Mer- chants’ avenue. At midnight the lower end on Hunter's avenue was burning fiercely and it looked as if this build- ing was doomed to go like its predeces- sors. ‘The tenants in the building on the lower floor were N. J. Fournier, saloon keeper; Henry MMorin, baker; Peter Benoit, -druggist,” and Adolphus Benoit, barber. On the upper floor the tenants were Joseph Benoit, Na- Ppoleon Fournier and others. Low water pressure greatly handi- capped the firemen who rendered very efficient service in spite of the tre- nmiéndous start the flames got. The heat was terrific and the flames shot Up into the air for over a distance of 100 feet at times while the reflection could be seen from as far away as Mohegan on the Montville trolley line andcould be seen also for a distance of several miles on neighboring hills. Sparks flew in all directions but a careful watch prevented further con- figratioz. As soon as the Ponemah men had been notified of the fire the electric power was shut off from all sircults in the firezoneas a precau- tionary measure. The heat from the burning buildings and the flying sparks threatened_ the Wequonnoe school but a gardenhose stream and the chemical line from the auto saved this building from poss ble destruction. Just how the fire started could not be determined but it was certain that it had its origin in the Lincoln Club building. It is ¢laimed that it start- ed in the Lincoln Club rooms, but this is denmied by the club members who say the fire started in the rear section of the building which was not occu- pled by them. The total loss is estimated at $100,- 000, partly covered by insurance. Hundreds of people turned out to watch the flames an@ scores of auto- mobiles visited the scene during the night. ~ The jitney drivers rushed to Taftville as soon as they got wind of the conflagration and they did a thriv- ing business for several hours. — HIP BROKEN IN FALL AT HIS STUDIO. William 8. Laighton, Senior Protog- rapher of the City, Has Bad Acci- dent. William 8. Laighton, the well known, photographer and senior of all in the craft in this city, sustain- ed a brokep hip Saturday a little aft- er noon in a fall at his studio in the Boswell building on Main street. He was hurrying to finish up an order when he fell on the fioor near the sink. It is supposed he either slipped or one of his ankles that was broken some time ago gave way and threw hini. Help was secured by his assistant, Miss Belle Rathbun, and after Mr. Laighton had been given temporary attention, the Backus hospital ambu- lahce was summoned and he was tak- en in it to his home at No. 19 Clift street. The break is a serious one at Mr. Laighton's age, but on Sunday he was reported as comfortable as could be expected. JUNIOR LEAGUE OUTING AT MOHEGAN PARK Traveled in Motor Truck and Had Delightful Day, A score or more of the members of the Junior League of Trinity Methodist Episcopal church enjoyed a delightful outing at Mohegan park on Satur- day afternoon. The children were taken from the church in an auto truck at 1 o'clock and they remained at the park until 4.30, when the auto truck conveyed theem back to the church. A basket luncheon was served under the trees, and_group pictures were taken by Rev. F, W. Coleman, pastor of the church, and Miss Hazel Robinson. The children were accom- panied on the outing by Mrs. G. E. Robinson and Miss Hazel Robinson, who Were in general charge of the ar- rangements, Promoted to Easthampton Office. Harry Tobin, for a number of years connécted with the local office of the American Express company in this elty and a young man of engaging reonality, with a wide circle of ends in’ Willimantic and vicinity, leaves town today to take up the du: tles of agent for the American Ex- press company in Easthampton, Mass. This is a in advance for Mr. To. bin, and he is receiving the congrat. ulations of friends at his pro- motion, all might go forth with the inspira- tion of the day as loyal Knights of Columbus, faithful and representative Catholic citizens to spread through this broad land the gospel of peace on earth and good will to men. The banquetters adjourned at 11.45. KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS AT ST. PATRICK’S CHURCH Heard Impressive Sermon by Rev. Dr. 'ace of Catholic University, Wash- ington. In preparation for receiving the fourth degree, a number of Knights of Columnus from eastern Connecticut towns arrived in Norwich Sunday morning, and, following the custom of the knights before any formal session or ceremonial, attended mass.. Escort- e@ by local fourth degree knights, the visitors marched from the headquar- ters of White Cross council, K. of C., in the Sunlight building, to St. Pat- rick's_church, the line being led by John M. Lee, master of the fourth de- gree for this district, His Honor Mayor Timothy C. Murphy, Charles O. Mur- phy, secretary of the degree, and Dr. T. A. Crowley, F. N, of Rev. Daniel Mullen assembly, fourth degree, of this city. Occupied Special Pews. At the church the knights occupied Dews on either side of the center aisle, making a company of about 90. As it was Trinity Sunday, the vest- ments and altar hangings were of White, the decorations of the altars be- ing a few choice flowers arranged with discrimination and taste by the Sis- ters of Mercy who care for the sanc- tuary. The high mass was sung by the Rev. Myles P. Galvin. The regular choir, directed by Organist Frank L. Farrell gave Millard’s Kyrie and Glo- ria, Himmell's Veni Creator, the Credo of 'Van Bree, Gounod's Sanctus and Agnus Del, singing with noticeable ac- cord and volume in the choruses.. As there was to be no vespers, benediction of the blessed sacrament followed the mass, given by Father Galvin, assisted by the Rev. Francis J. Kuster. Dur- ing benediction, the O Salutaris and Tantum Ergo were particularly well sung. The soloists of the morning were Mrs. Frank L. Farrell and John Suili- van. The offertory was a melodious ren- dering of Rosewig's Ave Maria by Thomas Slattery of Bridgeport, for- merly of Norwich.. The violin obligato was by Mrs. Slattery, sympathetic, fin- ished, delicate, supplementing the or- gan accompaniment in the roundest :nd sweetest tone, an exquisite num- er. As the knights marched to their pews, Mr. Farrell played Onward, Christian Soldier, and during various portions of the service he demonstrated the superior qualities of the organ and his own skill as a player. The rector of St. Patrick’s, the Re John H. Broderick, following the cu tomary parish announcements, cordial- 1y weicomed the visitors to the pafish and to the church, referring to the fact that their presence was the best proof of the practical Catholicity for which their order stands. He expressed the hope that the ceremonies of the after- noon might serve to strengthen the faith which their assemblage indicat- ed, and announced that the preacher of the morning would be the celebrat- ed writer, scholar and teacher, Very Rev. Edward A. Pace, Fh. D.,, S/ T. D., LL. D., professor of philosophy at the Catholic university, Washington. This was a particularly happy and graceful compliment to the knights, since Dr. Pace is one of the most distinguished dignitaries of the American hierarchy, and his sermon ang presence served to 2dd significance to the events of the ay. The Apos Commission, Dr. Pace read the regular gospel for Trinity Sunday, Matt. xxvil. 18-20, Christ's commission to His apostle: Go’ ye therefore, teach all nations; teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have taught you; and be- hold, I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world. Earnest seekers after truth, said the preacher, often marvel at the firmness of Catholics’ belief in their church and its teachings. Credo, they say: I be- lieve, and they evidence a sureness, a stability of faith which is explained in various ways by those who are of other faiths, or of no faith. ‘When Christ gave His commission to the apostles, humble, unlearned fishermen most of them, in an obscure corner of the powerful Roman domain, with no ‘compelling <redentials, no worldly influence, confronted by the most gigantic task which any body of men ever faced, they must have been appalled, disconcerted; but they had the sustaining promise of the Saviour, Behold, I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world. Go, teach all nations! Go, teach them all things whatsoever I have taught you! That was the charter! That was the commission of the little body of teachers whose work was not to end Wwith themselves or their lives, but was to continue with their successors, not for a few years or centuries, but till the consummation of the world. They did not faint or fail, for the reason that they were strengthened by the concluding promise of the commis- sion: I am with you till the end of the world.. The preacher said so many persons had the undefined impression that the Saviour is back in the past, two thousand years, with Augustus and others who were His contemporaries, instead of realizing that He meant this promise—with you, till the end of the world. While there shall be one last men with salvation to gain; Behold, I am with you all days! Christ Their Authority. This, then, is why Catholics are so grounded in’ their belief. Apart from the fact that theirs is the oldest church among the Christian churches, that it numbers more souls than does any other such church, they have the firm belief that this charter of their earthly organization was given by One Wwho had but just declared, All power is given to Me in heaven and on earth. Christ is thelr authority; He has been the strength of Hijs aposties and their successors who have carried out His command, teaching all nations.. They have not taught what was fashionable at the moment, not what it pleased the great and ‘the powerful to hear, not those things which men were will- ing to believe, doubting other things, but ""l‘hoaa things which I have taught yout» ¥ Catholics know that Christ has kept His word, that He is with His church personally, permanently, _effectually; that, against opposition, trials from within and without, He has directed the successors of the little band which He had taught for three years to guide that church aright. That they have this firmly grounded belief, the preacher reminded his hearers, is not because they are better than others, SPECIAL BARGAINS In Solid Gold and Gold Filled Bracelets, Rings and Lavaliers All the popular patterns in Bracelets and the jatest designs in Rings and Lavallers with any stone you may se- lect.

Faith Through Present Unrest. At the present state of the world, when in every mind is the senseof un- certainty, when there is so much that is unstable and civilization jtself seems almost in peril, there are those who will rise to say that Christianity has been a failure; that the doctrines taught by Christ, the Saviour, the Per- fect Man, the Prince of Peace, the Son of God, are losing ground, are failing in their effect Whatever the darkness of the present outlook. however gloomy the forecast for even six months from now, the Catholic's faith tells him that the Saviour who gave His pledge of unwavering strength and support and presence to the apostles will not fail now. That, though nations and_ peo- ples, and all that is beautifu] and his- toric and a product of worldcraft and man’s ingenuity be swept away, the same Christ who commissioned . the apostles will safely guide and direct His church, not alone through present perils, but “even to the consummation of the world!” Dr. Pace's words made a profound impression on his hearers, as point af- ter point was unfolded with supreme logic, convincing reasoning, beauty of imagery and such a mastery of lan- guage as was to be expected from one of his scholarship.
