DEER WAS LANDED ON BOAT CLUB FLOAT. Had to Be Killed Because Leg Was Broken. About € o'clocks Friday morning a deer appeared on Oneco street and dashed through the yard of Frank Fitch into the rear of the yard of Frank H.

Notification has been given former Congressman Bryan F. Mahan of New London that the war department board of engineers for rivers and harbors does not approve of the survey to pro- vide a 20-foot channel in the Thames river from New London to Norwich. A period of 30 days is allowed for the presentation of further statements and arguments bearing on the matter, and all parties interested are urged to communicate with the above board. The notification from the board of engineers follows and is self-explana- tory: The river and harbor act approved March 4, 1915, contained provision for 2 preliminary examination of Thames river, Connecticut, with a view of pro- viding a 20-foot channel between New London harbor and the city of Nor- wich. The required examination has been made by the district officer and his report thereon is favorable to the extent of recommending a survey and further investigation, looking toward an increase in channel dimensions be- tween Aliyn's Point and the city of Norwich. In accordance with law, the report has been referred to the board of en- gineers for rivers and harbors for con- sideration and recommendation. From the information presented, the board is not convinced of the advisability of the United States undertaking any ad- ditional improvement at this locality for the reason that the probable cost of the work involved would be exces- sive when compared with the benefits to general commerce and navigation that may reasonably be expected to ro- sult. All parties interested in the pro- posed improvement are invited to sub- mit, within a period of 30 days from the’ date of this notice, statements and arguments bearing upon the necessity for the improvement in the interests of commerce and navigation. Such statements should be addressed to “The Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors, Southern Building,Wash- ington, D. C.” Should a hearing be desired, this can be arranged by cor- respondence with the board. THE BOARD OF ENGINEERS FOR RIVERS AND HARBORS. Public notice of the board of engi- neers for rivers and harbors, dated June 21, 1915, was sent to the follow- ing parties: The mayor of Norwich, Norwich Chamber of Commerce, Nor- wich Board of Trade, Norwich Busi- ness Men's association, Hon. Bryan F. Mahan, the Edward _Chappell , Norwich, H. F. & A. J. Dawley, Nor- wich, John O. Peckham, Norwich, Thames River Specialties Co.

Q BOAT RACE AUTOS FILLED BROADWAY Autochemical Was Near Collision Answering Fire Call —Line of Autos Along Each Curb, A blaze in an awning ‘over one of the windows of J. B. Shannon's of- fice, corner of Market and Commerce streets, was quickly extinguished by Chemical Co. No. 1 about § o'clock Friday evening. A telephone call to the department brought Chemical Co. No. 1, from the Main street station and the auto chemical and hook and ladder truck from the Central sta- tion to the scene in quick time. Chem- ical No. 1 was the first on the scene and the flames were extinguished with chemical. The awning was folded up and it is_the opinion of Chief H. L. Stanton that the fire was caused by a cigarette butt dropped from a window on the upper floor. The congested condition of lower Broadway greatly hindered the auto chemical in making the run and twice the machine narrowly escaped collid- ing with cars drawn up alongside the curb and in addition to this it met two automobiles coming from the op- posite direction. Lower Broad is about the narrowest street in the bus- iness section and in the opinion of Chief Stanton should only be used as a one way ‘street, a plan that has worked admirably in other cities. With a line of autos drawn up on both sides of the street there is barely room for oneMachine to pass down the centre and no room at all for two machines to pass each other. The congestion Friday evening was so great that the aerial ladder truck was sent down Bath street, to Frank- lin street and the square, and thence up Main street, this making a detour by which the company lost several minutes. A minute or two lost by the firemen responding to an alarm often makes a big difference as fires some- times gain tremendous headway in a very short space of time and may thus resut in the sacrfice of _human lives with nobody to blame but the careless automobile drivers. A count at 8:30 o'clock Friday eve- ning showed that there were just 24 large touring cars drawn up along: side the curbing on lower Broadway from St. Mary’s hall down to the cor- ner of Main street, 13 on one gide and 11 on the other. One car was drawn up directly in front of a fire dvdrant. This_is another difficulty with which the firemen have to cope. It is said that in other cities of the state the matter of blocking streets and hy- drants has been taken up by the au- thoritles and there is a fine for of- fenders. The thought of self protection should prompt the auto owners to park their machines in more suitable places than congested streets flr in the event of a fire in the immediate vicinity, their machines would _very likely be damaged with water, if not by fire, for the firemen would not be able to wait for a score or more of machines to move out of range of their hose lines. Chief Stanton says that gestion of lower Broadway Friday night was mnot entirely caused by boat race day, as the blocked condi- tion of the street is becoming a night- ly occurrance. The chief says there is plenty of room on Union square, where autos may be banked and the public sould keep in mind the fact that fire apparatus has the right of way. the con- SILVER WEDDING SURPRISE. Mr. and Mrs. Charles S. Storms Were Remembered On Their Annivessary. At their home at No. 575 Main street, East Side, Mr. and Mrs. Charles S, Storms were completely and de- lightfully surprised on Friday eve- ning in honor of their 25th wedding anniversary. Upon returning from a call in the meighborhood they found the house in possession of their visi- tors who are members of the class in the Central Baptist Sunday school to which Mrs. Storms belongs, together with the officers of the Sunday_school and their wives. Rev, Dr, J. B. Slo- sum, pastor of the church and rela- tives of Mr. and Mrs. Storms from Providence, Columbia and Stonington ‘Wwere also present, The house had been made very at- tractive with decorations of palms and cut flowers by Geduldig. Besides the congratulations and good wishes which they brought, the visitors made gifts of silverware and money, including a'silver bread tra: suitably engraved, from the Sunday school class and $25 in silver from the officers and teachers of the Sunday school where Mr. Storms is an as- sistant superintendent. An informal social evening was spent from 8 to 10 o'clock. Swahn's orchestra furnished a programme that added to the pleasure of all present. Mr, and Mrs. Storms were married in this city by Rev. Mr. Hiscox and have lived here their entire married life. Their family consists of nine children, all of whom were home for the sflver annivessary. That'll Be Awful.

Lakin—Ad- dresses by Rev. Sherrod Soule and Rev. G. H. Ewin, The conference of the six churches was held with the church at Lisbon on Wednesday, June 23, and despite the threatening weather there was a good attendance. ~ The church was tasteful- ly_decorated. The devotional service was conduct- ed by the Rev. F. S. Chlid of Griswold. The sermon was preached by the Rev. William H. Lakin of Plainfield. His text was John 3:16. Some may see universal salvation in this verse but there is salvation only for those who call on Him. There was a time when God and Adam lived in perfect communion. No matter how far down a man has gone God will lift him up. It is true now that God i His_only begotten son for th We must bel\eve in the liv- ing Jesus as well as a h i People say they can know through science, literature, music, and art, but can we communicate with a friend through the decorations of his house so you can know Jesus only by personal communion. The worst en- emy of the world is to inject into its belief the poison that there is no sin, no hell. God is a God of love, but also a God of anger and a consuming fire. Let us go back to the word and stand by 'His teaching. Our spirit witnesses with God’s spirit that we are his children. We should know that we are Gold’s children because we have met the conditions of the promise, that is we believe in Christ. A dying boy asked how he could be saved. His father told him to ask forgiveness just as he did once when he disobeyed him. He saw the way and felt himself saved. God remem- bers our sins no more when we are forgiven. _We are to come just as we are. Paul and Silas did not tell the jailor to first give up his bad hab- its but_they said “come just as you are, bz ve in the Lord Jesus and thou shalt be saved.” After the sermon a_hymn was sung and the conference dismissed by the benediction by the Rev. Mr. Reynolds. Afternoon Session. After an excellent dinner of straw- berry shortcake and other zood things the conference assembled for the after- noon session . The praise service was led by Rey. Miss Jones of Canterbury. The records of the last meeting was read and ac- cepted. Upon a motion of the Rev. F. S. Child of Griswold, Canterbury was admitted as a member of the confer- ence. with the meeting at that church the first Wednesday in December. The first address of the afternoon was en- titled, The New Connecticut, by the Rev. Sherrod Soule, superintendent of the Missionary Society of Connecticut. He said in part Out of this very Samuel Kirk. church has gone A ‘mundred years ago the largest place in this state was Stonington. A hundred years ago there were not the problems of to- day. At that time there was a great exodus to Vermont. One may under- stand the magnitude of it by the Con- necticut names given to Vermont town, At that time a foreigner was a curiosity. Ever ytown had its doc- tor, lawyer, as well as as minister. Eighty years ago a company of men went two miles out o ftheir way to see an Irishman, now we can’t look out of the window without seeing one. Now in Bridgeport only one out of six is a Yankee. One fourth of the population of New. Haven is Italian, but remember that John Cabot was an Italian, not an Englishman. They have a right to this country. The in- heritance is just as good for one as the other. We of the Yankee stock have got to get out of our minds that we belong to the aristocracy. In competition it a question whether the Yankee can hold his own. Among the farmers, business men, teachers, min- isters, some of the best are foreign- ers. Thank God for them. "They are much to be preferred to the degenerate Yankee. ‘We must arouse ourselves to the needs of these peoples and make them feel at home even if they are Roman Catholics. In the new con- ditions we can help our missionaries working among these peoples, In Con- necticut we preach to them in nine dif- ferent languages. We can only get at these people by hand and hand, heart to heart methods. There must be no feeling of artificial distinction. In the new Connecticut we cannot and must not forget these new peo- ples and your Home Missionary so- clety which labors among them. After a hymn the Rev. George H. Ewing of Norwich Town spoke on the “Every Member Canvass.” Why should there he an every member canvass? For larger efficiency every ‘member canvass in the efficient amd scientific way of support for local and mission- ary work. It compels attention on the part of all What is it? It is & campaign and should be executed in' & single day. To make it efficient the church mi sionary soctety composed of Tepresen. tatives from all the church organiza- tions should take charge of the can- vass. They should draw up a circu- lar letter for the'purpose, then go out two by two day to cpm- plete the work. The results have prov- en the efficiency of this method over and over. Individhals are interested never were The roll call resulted as follows: Griswold 11, Preston Clty 20, Hanover & Plll"nfleld 10, Jewett City 30, Canter- ury 7. A hymp and benediction closed the conference. FIRST WIN FOR YALE BY VARSITY SUBS In a Two-Mile Brush Yale Led by 3 Seconds. The first of the real races between Yale and Harvard on the Thames Fri- day morning at 10:30 resulted in a victory for Yale, the sons of Elf win- ning a two-mile row down stream be- tween the varsity substitute crews. The race was exciting from start to finish and when Yale crossed the line at the Thames river bridge, her shell was seven-eighths of a length ahead of Harvard’s. Yale's time was 10:40 and Harvard’s 10:43 Both crews showed signs of fa- tigue at the finish, two of each boat being in distress, but they were quick. ly revived by water sprinkled on them by their fellow ogrsmen Freshmen Race Postponed. The Freshmen race, which was scheduled to follow the varsity sub- stitute race, was called off at 11 o’clock because of a brisk wind that had sprung up. The wind blew di- rectly up the course and caused such adverse conditions that it was post- gfl!d until after the varsity race. th crews had gone to the starting l‘gr‘x':,d which was also at the Navy COLLECTED $1,000 FROM AUTOS AT RACE. a Boon Farmer Near Finish Line. to Never in the history of the Yale- Harvard races was such a display of automobiles as seen on Friday. Particularly was this the case on the west side of the river near the finish line, where a solid line of machines threaded their way down the narrow country road to obtain parking places in the flelds near by. It was reported that one farmer who charged $1 per machine for the parking privilege counted up $1,000 in his receipts for the day. Besides this, there were hundreds of machines in other places, and one au- tomobile man estimated that probably every quarter mille near the finish rep- resented about $1,000,000 worth of ma- chines. ‘They came from all the nearby states and one machine with a Utah registr@tion number was noticed. ‘When the race was over, the Mont- ville road both north and south from Jerome corner was filled with miles of automobiles driving homeword. BARN BURNED WITH HORSE IN IT On West Main Street, Near East Great Plain—Property of James Mat: A barn and the horse in it in the rear of the so-called John Stanton property on West Main street, near Backus cor- ners, were destroyed by fire this (Sat- urday) morning about 1.40 o'clock. A shed next to the barn was saved. The cause of the fire is unknown. It was discovered by a man nameasd Ferry, who is a tenant in the house, which is owned by James Matassa, a fruit dealer. A telephone message was sent to the telephone exchange and the operator notified fire department headquarters. The autochemical from the Central station responded to the call, but the roof of the barn had fallen it when the fire apparatus arrived. A wagon that was in the barn was saved. POQUETANUCK SCHOOL.
