The anniversary of Judge and Mrs. will be observed in a guiet way at their new home about one- half a mile west of Columbia Green. No invitations have been sent out and whatever recognition of the event will be in a wholly informal w: it is quite probable that the long-married couple will attend service at the vil- lage church in the morning and from 2 o'clock in the afternoon to 10 o'clock in the evening they will be at home to all their friends and in this public way they desire to extend a most cor- dial invitation to all their friends to call and extend congratulations and best wishes. Judge Lyman and Mrs, Lyman (whose maiden name was Abbie Mar- garet Hunt) were married at the home of the bride’s mother on Chestnut Hill, Sept. 19, 1865, the ceremony being performed by the Rev. Frederick D. Avery in the presence of two witness- es, one of ‘whom, Mrs. Martha Manley Fuller, is still living in Middletown. The other two present were the offi- clating clergyman and the bride’s mother, both of whom passed on a few years ago, having reached the re- markable age of more than 90 years. Judge and Mrs, Lyman continued to reside in Columbia until the spring of 1871 when they removed to what is now Versailles in the town of Sprague and in 1873 they removed to Williman- tic, where they have since resided, until about two years ago, when they made their legal residence again in Columbia, although they had spent the summers there for the past eight years. Columbia will probably be their hgme for the rest of their lives. Mrs. Lyman is a native of that town, the daughter of Anson and Bet- sey Amy (Manley) Hunt and was born April 16, 1847; her whole life has been devoted to her home and the care of her children and aged mother. Four children have been born to the union, all of whom are still living. They are Mrs. Lizzie Doten (Lyman) Tharp of Louisville, Ky., Miss Lilllan Lyman, who resides at home and Hollis Hunt Lyman and Samuel Edson Lyman of Willimantic; there are three grand- children, Lyman Tharp, Hardy Tharp and Lillian Margaret Tharp, of Louis- ville, Ky. Judge Lyman, the son of Samuel Edson Lyman, was born in a log hut in the town of Barrie, Orleans coun- ty, N. Y, about 30 miles west of Rochester, the place now being known as Eagle Harbor on the Erie canal The date was November 11, 1843. He is a lineal descendant of Richard Ly- man, who emigrated from the parish of Ongar, Essex county, England, in August, 1631, first settling near Bos- ton, but in 1635 removing to Hart- ford, one of the first settlers of that town, His farm was bounded by Main, Buckingham, Washington and Wads- worth streets; he was buried in the 0ld Center church cemetery and his mame is among the first settlers on the monument to them in that burial place. Judge Lyman is in the eighth tion from the original Richard. Lyman’'s mother was Fanny tte (Clark) Lyman and both ita-and ancestors for several gen- ere natives otdCor]umbla\, Judge Lyman remove rom New York stage with his parents in the spring#of 1850 and in the fall of the same ‘yedr his father purchased the farm now occupied by Edward P. Ly- man, a short distance south from Judge Liyman' nt home. Judge Lyman nmunnf:::ome and worked on his father's farm\summers, attend- ing the Center district school in the winter, until the-spring of 1863, when he went to Eerz h: 'ofl;k- ed in Colt's willow" lactory “for two years, tmmh?r}ulflln[ the trade of making willow’ ware furni- ture and at present he s probably the only person in Connecticut who is able to make that class of furniture, al- though it is more than 40 years since he has actively engaged at that work. After he was married he lived on a farm, working much at his trade until the spring of 1871 when he en- gaged in the rallroad business, serv- ing as station agent at Versailles and freight clerk at Willimantic for the old H. R. & F. railroad, until the win- ter of 1873. His next business activity was as traveling salesman for the American Basket Co. of New Britain and the Williams Manufacturing Co. of Northampton, Mass. In‘ the spring of 1877 he went to Baltimore and en- gaged as instructor in basket making over convicts in the Maryland peni- tentiary, where he remained for one year and then returned to Williman- tic, where his family had remained, and took the superintendency of the ‘Windham almshouse, Mrs. Lyman act- ing as matron. They remained there twelve vears, being replaced by a democrat, which Judge Lyman was not. While at the Windham almshouse Mr. Lyman took a Xkeen interest in the administration of the pauper laws of the state, being the instigator of many reforms both in the paper laws and their adminis- tration. He was looked upon as one of the best posted men along those lines in the state! About one after they went there the building burned and’ durin eir administia- tion all the presert buildings on the place were pi d and erected. In 1890 Mr. lyman was appointed census enumerator for Willimantic and in the fall he took the manufac- turing statistics for Tolland and Wind- ham counties for the 1850 census. In the spring of 1391 he engaged in the fire insurance business and about the same time, in connection with George E. Stiles, he was instrumental in theé organization of the Williman Building and Loan association and w elected its first secretary and col- lector, a position he hts held ever since, now serving his twenty-fifth year. Judge Lyman has been a member |- of the Masonic fraternity for 47 years and both himself and wife are sixth degree members of the Grange. During the summer of 1891 he was engaged as the correspondent for a Hartford paper and. for several years he covered the entire eastern part of the state and reported many events of statewide interest, among_them be- ing the celebrated ~East “Thompson ‘Woodstock Bertha Melish being the daugh- ter of a retired Killingly clergyman |j ppeared from Holyoke col- as registrar of voters for the town of ‘Windham for about ten years.

Judge Lyman was electedifirst select- man of Columbia in October, 1914 and has been nominated by the republicans to_succeed himself this fall. In politics Judge Lyman has always been a staunch republicam, his fivst presidential vote being for General Grant. He was about a week too young to vote for Abraham Lincoln for his second term.

In Mr. Rockefeller's behalf it was sald that he had neither op- nor espoused the project but that he had taken it under considera- tion, Considerable importance was at- tached to a visit made today by Jacob H. Schift, of Kuhn, Loeb and Company to James J. Hill, the western railway builder and financier, at Mr. Hill's office. Renewal of the report that the so-called pro-German financial inter- ests of New York might participate in the loan followed their talk. Neither would discuss it, except to say that Mr Schiff had called to extend bifth- day congratulations to Mr. HML Mr. Hill was quoted afterwards as saying that the commission would ob- tatin half a billion @ollars here. & Ansonia, Conn., Sept. 16.—There was a free for all fight tonight between the entire police department of the city and a crowd of 5,000 persons following the announcement that State Bank Commissioner Everett J. Sturges had taken charge of the affairs of the Sav- ings Bank of Ansonia. The treasurer of the institution, former Mayor Franklin Burton, is under arrest, charged with embezzling $36,000. Crowd Became Unruly. ‘At 6 o'clock, when the factories were closed, a great crowd gsathered in front of the banking house to read the notice that had been posted. Finally the as- semblage became unruly and soon at- tempts were made to batter down the doors.- There were threats made to lynch Mr. Burton. Mayor Threatened to Sound Riot Call. Mayor Schumaker pushed his way through the throng and attempted to speak. He sald that if the people did not disperse he would sound the riot call. He was jeered and there were cries of “We want Burton!” Burton Hurried Out Back Window. The bank officers became alarmed at the threatening attitude of the mob and Burton was' hurried out of a back window of the bank building by two policemen. He was taken through back streets and in a roundabout way was escorted to the city hall and locked up. Police With Drawn Revolvers. The police, in the meantime, with drawn revolvers, were trying the best to cope with the situation. Then the mayor sounded a general alarm of fire. All the apparatus of the city responded. The firemen were ordered to turn the hose on the crowd, but they were un- able to follow out orders, for hundreds oz persons seized the hose and wrested it away from the firemen. Clubs Used Freely. The police used their clubs freely and there were many fist fights. There were scores of weeping women in the crowd. Finally, after two hours, the police regained control of the sit- uation and the crowd melted away. The bank building has been roped off ad policemen are on guard. Real Estate Deals, d shortage in Burton's ac- ; discovered by Commission- A. LINES, President.” Offered to Buy Passbooks. ‘William A. Nelson, one of the direc- tors, issued a statement saying that he would buy all passbooks of the deposit- ors to the extent of $100,000. Burton Locked Up. After a conference between Commis- sioner Sturges and Attorney General Hinman, City Attorney McOrmund is- sued a warrant charging Burton with embezzlement. He was locked up and at a late hour had not secured bail. (Continued from Page One) bankers would naturally make a coun- ter offer—say half a billion. There would then follow a series of parleys. The commission would reduce the amount by fifty to one hundred mil- lions and the American bankers would add a few handfuls of millions to their previous offer. After a period of ne- gotiations they would reach a common figure, say by splitting the difference. This would then be agreeable to both sides and definite terms as to the interest rate, the term of the loan and other details could be fairly quick. ly disposed of. v Wily Financiers. The men who have come over here from Great Britain and France, In the opinion of Wall Street, are master players in the game of world finance. Like all good players, they do not be- tray by thein words what their inten- tions are, nor do they place.all their cards on the table at once, as Wall Street views it. Consequently it is expected that there will be many more developments before it is seen what thy are realls striiing for-and wheth- er they will win. A dozen or more.promnient New York bankers talked with the com- missioners today at a meeting place whose whereabouts was not disclosed. J. P. Morgan and two of his partners, Henry P. Davison and Dwight W. Morrow, were among them. Who the others were was not revealed. A number of bank presidents were not at their down-town desks, however, at 'hh.?d hour at which the meeting was Formal Statements to Be Tssued. Issuance of formal statements was begun tonight by the commission. It is expected that such statements will be issued dally so long as negotiations are in progress.

No action b ythe United States government in connection with the condemnation of ‘American meat cargoes by the British | prize court is contemplated at the present stage. State department of- ficials explained today that while there had been some preliminary steps to- ward diplomatic negotiations over th seizure of the cargoes, action was withbeld because the American pack- ers preferred to exhaust all legal rem- edies in England before invoking the ald of their government.
