H, Starkweather has secured one of the prettiest pairs of horses seen in town in years—a variety known as gold horses in the west, this pair also having pronounced white markings, the combination being very unusual. Sorrows for Unavoidable Accident. A, J. Kenehan, the rider who figured in the accident that caused the death of a little boy on the West Side Mon- day, was greatly distressed when he learned at his home in Providence that the accident had proved fatal. It is understood that an effort is to be made to secure permission to play Sunday baseball in Killingly this season. Just how the matter is to be approached has not been made public. Car crews operatinz the open trol- leys with the uew double running boards find that the steps must be folded to make some turns. This is being done and that side of the car closed to exit by use of the side rails, very seldom used heretofore on this line, Ice Demand. Hot weather Monday and Tuesday gave the ice men more business from family trade than they have been get- ting since cool weather came last fall. Tuesday, June 1, also marked the opening of the ice taking season for mariy familles who practice economy in_the use of the commodity. There were many rumors in_town Tuesday as to the prospect of litiga- tion that may ensue as the result of the fatal accident on the West Side while the state highway was being used for motorcycle races, the pro- moters claiming that they were given permission to run off the events there. Members of the G. A. R, W. R. C,, Sons of Veterans, were well pleased Tuesday in the respect and attention that was shown here by the many that assisted in making the observance of Memorial day so impressive. Addition to Baptist Church. A brick foundation has been built for the addition that is to be con- structed on the southwest corner of the Baptist church in carrying out the plans, for enlarging and remodelling the structure, STARTING FOR CALIFORNIA., Motor Party of Four Will Tour in Thirty-eight States on Eight or Ten Thousand Mile Trip, This morning Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Bottomly of Elmville and their guests, Mr. and Mrs. Harold F, Glendining, who have been at Fishers Island, leave on an automobile trip to Cali- fornia. They expect to be away until about September 1, and during their absence will tour in approximately 38 states, as their itinerary is now ar- ranged. They expect to limit each day’s_travel to about 100 miles, keep- ing them on the road only abeut four hours and allowing the rest of the time for rest and inspection of the many cities where they will make stop-overs, Tonight their first stopping place will be at Ashley Falls in the Berk- shires. Their westward route is via Buffalo, Chicago, Denver, Salt Lake City, Ogden, thence to the Yellowstone park and then to San Francisco, where they will visit the exposition. They will return by a southern route, visiting at Los Angeles. Returning they will V] the grand canyon and many other ints of interest. Their route home from St, Louis has not been definitely mapped, but it will probably be through southern states and then north along the Atlantic coast. The mileage is expected to total between 8,000 and 10,000 miles. Part of the way going west they will travel iover the famous Lincoln trail. For use in the distant west and on parts of the route where necessity or conve- nierce may cause them to stop for the night, the party is equipped with a camping outfit. Cameras are included in the equipment and it is epected that a fine collection of views will be made. THE AMUSING HYPHEN. Descendants of Earlier Immigrants Attempt to Flout Descendants of Later Ones. The discussion Intended to unhy- phen hyphenated Americans is wel- comed by scores of men and women in PUTNAM NEWS PUTNAM Contract for Fine New Catholic Rec- tory Awarded to “Norwich Firm— Faithful Horse Buried Near Master —News of St. Philip’s Parish—Boy Scouts’ Activities—Business Men’s Association Plans, Rev. Charles F. Bodard, pastor of St. Mary’s church, has announced the awarding to the Fenton Contracting company of Norwich of the contract for the construction of a new rectory for St. Mary's parish. The new building is to be of brick, three storics in height, of plain, sub- stantial construction and to be ready for occupancy by December 1 next. The new residence will occupy a site on the church property beside the present rectory, which will be razed soon after the new building is ready for use. The new building will be an ornament. to Providence street and will add considerably to the appear- ance of the fine church property, which has been greatly improved under the administration of Father Bedard, who during his bricf pastorate here has reduced the parish indebtedness to $13,000, which is small indeed for a parish of tho membership possessed by St. Mar: Postmaster Alexander Gilman an- nounces that under a government or- der money for prisoners of war held in European countries will be for- warded without cost. The postal sav- ings and parcel post business at the local office continu to show a steady and considerable increase. City Needs Bubble Fountain. A tired and travel-stained father dipping with a tin cup helpings of water from the font in Union square, where scores of horses each day dip their muzzles and drink long and deep of the cool gvater, that his five chil- dren might quench their thirst, was pointed out Tuesday by a local bus- iness man as the strongest argument he has seen why Putnam should pro- vide a public drinking place for man as well as for beast. A tired mother with the party also drank'a cupful of water from the basin that is reg- ularly shared by horses. The family was evidently in town for the Memorial day exercises, the incident referred to having occurred Monday, and had not the necessary courage to go and ask for a drink at places where water might be had. They did not look as if they could af- ford the cost of drinks of soda. In discussing the matter the bus- iness man pointed out that a propa- ganda to prevent the drinking of in- toxicants and showing the evil ef- fects of that practice is being carried out in the_ city and some money spent for display advertising, of a helpful nature, in connection therewith; but the idea of supplying a public drink- ing font, where a man might drink something temperate has been over- looked. There was once a drinking font near Danielson who have for years been hyphenated against their will, their de- sire and their right by many who chose to exclusively reserve to themselves the right to claim the full arrd unqualified title of American, indeed a proud dis- tinction. If, in some quarters, the hy- phen is at present an indication of lack of loyalty and patriotism to this gov- ernment, it is not to be taken that all of those who have had the hyphen forced upon them—men of many races —have welcomed it or accepted it, when united with the word American, the designation that it has been too often meant to imply. It has been too generally used to separate, and humiliate, millions of men, women and children by unthinking mericans” from that great percentage of the pop- ulation which exalts itself as unhy- phenated and, as a whole, superior to any other portion of the population upon which, by any stretch of imagi- nation or truth, the subordinating spe- cial classification of hyphenation can be_fixed. - There are in Danielson many fam- ilies the heads of which were foreign born. The children of these, now in many cases past the half-century mark in years, were born in this town, edu- cated in i heols and employed in many lines of its daily activities. They have never claimed residence outside the good old state of Connecticut. They have never set foot off United States soil, and never wish to. The ag they know and love—the flag are willing to die for if need be the Star Spangled Banner. Yet re habitually hyphen- s German, French, ad infinitum and made Irish, by this practice to feel that they have Italian never attained to what is unqualified- ly American and m never hope to. These people so unwillingly hyphen- ated, have all the respect in the world for the races from which they came, but that respect in no way whatso- ever has to do with their loyalty to and love for this, their own native land. Hyphenating them in derisive and sneering tones moreover lessened their patriotism, nor is likely to, though those who have often sub- jected them to ridicule in this manner have in many cases been their mental and moral inferiors. It appea that a world crisis has been required to win for generations of descendants of immigrants to this country nation-wide arguments for the abolition of the hyphen, in this case the cquivalent of inequality, In citi- zenship, loyalty, fidelity to country and hope for the future. = Much has been heard of this in Danielson recently. Here to live, love, labor and die, hun- dreds will welcome the emancipation that the talked of abolition of the hyphen will bring to them. Personal Items. Mrs. M. Braney, Mrs. T. J,_ Riley, Mrs. M.

Dolly, Faithful Horse of Godfrey Mal- bone, Has Grave Near His—Inscrip- tion on Monument, The peak of a modest marble shaft protruding over a common field stone wall that is in the range of vision of the many who tour along the fine state road between this city and Pom- fret, a short distance west of the Day-Kimball hospital, is an object of no more than passing interest to any whose eyes fall upon it and is apt to be mentally set down as the most pretentious of the memorials in a tiny family burial plot; but it is_much more significant than that to the few who know something of its history. It is as much a memorial to a faith- ful horse as it is to the man who own- ed her—Rufus C. Malbone, and was so_made by his direction. . Rufus Malbone was a giant colored man and believed to have been a de- scendant of the people of his race who were named in honor of Godfrey Mal- bone, who owned many slaves in Old Trinity parish, Brook Rufus was the son of Othello, who as a_squatter took a small tract gf wooded 1 near the site of the cemetery referred to, and cleared it for a home Rufus was born in the oabin erected by his father and secured his education in the Gary district school. He grew up to be industrious and thrifty. Going to Providence as a young man, he secured work as a truck driver, eventually came to own a rig of his own and in time advanced to the proprietorship of the largest trucking business in the city. In time he acquired a partner, which act was to lead to his undoing. Malbone, leaving his Providence inter- ests to the care of his partner, came back to the old home and began to improve it. Taking advantage of his opportunities, the partner robbed Mal ‘bone—practically ruined him, his sav- ings of a lifetime disappearing, with the exception of a small sum with which the discouraged man purchased a tract of scrub land just across the highway from where he now lies buried. Back at the old homestead, Malbone then enmgaged in the making of cider, which he intended to turn to vinegar and sell in the Providence market, where he continued to sell produce, hay and other commodities. The great vat that he built to hold the cider and age it was not of proper materfal, however, and all but a few gallons of the great quantity of cider Bulletin GOOD FCR title holder to 25 extra votes.

During a late period of his life he took to drink and was often in the habit of becoming grossly in- toxicated while in Providence, where he was in the habit of driving on his business trips a fine mare named Dol- Time and again Dolly brought him safely home over the many miles of lonesome highway when he was not in condition to guide her and upon one occasion in the dead of winter, when the ground was deeply covered with snow, she undoubtedly saved his life. Malbome told of it many times thereafter to a lifelong friend, San- ford Davis, who related it Tuesday upon request. Near Chepachet, Malbone, stupified with drink had fallen from the team. It was afterwards apparent to Mal- bone that the mare had not gone far when she missed him. Turning the vehicle around, evidently with great difficulty, she traveled back along the road till she came upon Malbone lying unconscious and partly buried in the snow. Here the faithful animal whin- nied and pawed and breathed upon the fallen man until she suoceeded in arousing him to such alertftess as to cause him to realize his condition. He finally managed to pull himself into the vehicle and to drive the horse home and always thereafter, and with great good cause, attributed to the horse the saving of his life. Years afterwards when he was about to die he directed that no per- son should ever hold a rein over Dol- 1y’s back and expressed the wish that she might be laid at rest beside him soon after he had passed away, Malbone's death occurred October 12, 1884, following an injury he r ceived while attempting to lift a heav- ily loaded wagon so a tire could be reset on the wheel from which it had fallen. Regaining consciousness after a period of several da: he directed practically with his dying breath what should be done with Dolly, this seem- ingly being of much more concern to h that the disposition of his other worldly possessions. Two weeks after Malbone's death his wishes were car- ried out by Sanford Davis and other neighbors. One night at dusk th. led Dolly into the little cemetery to a position near a grave that had been prepared for him and a bullet put a quick end to her existence. Her grave is close beside that of her master, who had lived his life alone, The marble shaft that rises above their resting place bears on one face the usual form of inscription relative to Malbone and_upon another face the following: Dolly, His Faithbul Horse, Died October 25, 1884. Seventeen persons, all relatives of Malbone's, are buried in the little plot where rest the inseparable pair. St. Philip’s Church Interests. The class recently confirmed make its first communion Sunday morning at 10.45. Evening prayer will ‘be shortened on that day, to permit attendance at Dr. Hudson's lecture at the Bradley theater. The altar chapter is to meet Friday evening, after evening prayer.

The affatrs of the Trada. the principal subject of the discussion, and some announce- ment will be made soon, it is said. The secretary, Rev. C. J Harriman, reported on the meeting in Hartford Thursday, which completed the or- ganization of the Connecticut Asso- ciation of Commercial and Civic Ex- ecutiv made up principally of sec- retari Mr. Humphrey of New Lon- don was made president, Mr. Meade of Hartford vice president, Mr. An- drews of Neew Britain, secretary and tre: er, and Mr. Harriman of Put- nam and Mr. Benzon of Plainville complete the executive committee. Meetings will be held five times a year and much will be done between meet- ings in the way of cooperation. The members were made welcome to the meetings of the state chamber of commerce. The secretary also reported on the meeting of the Eastern Connecticut Development committee held in New London Friday. New London, Nor- wich, Willimantic, Danielson and Pu nam were all represented: and appl cations were received from Stoning- ton and Mystic. There were several ®ood addresses, the annual reports were received, and officers elected.

Boy Scouts of America, A rally was held at the high school gsymnasium Wednesday of last week, and the Scouts were drilled, in prep- aration for Memorial day. All troops were represented on that day, when 30 scouts marched in the morning and afternoon. Commissioner Harriman was in command, and Scout Masters Danijelson and McAndrew, and Assist- ant Scout Master Kennedy acted as file closers. The boys were served din- ner with the Grand Army by the mem- bers of the Woman's Relief corps. The principles of the scout movement are opposed to display: but this Memorial day observance was on the ground that it was a “good turn” to help the veterans, An examination will be held at the high school this (Wednesday) evening, open to all Scouts, on knowledge of Putnam. Streets, public buildings, fire boxes, manufactures, transportation facilities, and residences and offices of physicians, are among the items called for, all designed to equip a citizen to be _intelligently helpful to strangers and in emergencles. Be Prepared, is one of the Scout mottoes, and Do a Good Turn Daily is the other.
