NORWICH BULLETIN, WEDNESDAY, “National Emblem March” played by Pryor’s Band Pryor and his musicians render Bagley’s celebrated march with inspiring dash and great skill. The ingenious mingling of patriotic melodies and the stirring swing of the completed effect have made it one of the two or three most popular marches ever written. The “Garde du Corps March,”” a recent composition by R. B. Hall, the famous bandmaster who died a short time ago, is the second number on this sure-te-be-popular Pryor record.

Hurtado Brothers Royal Marimba Band Four more selections for Victor marimba lovers The intermezzo from ‘‘Cavalleria Rusticana’ and the sere- nade ‘‘Fading Leaves” are two selections which result in a superb record when played by the world’s leading marimba band. Victor Double-faced Record 18043, Ten-inch, 75 cents. The “Medley of American Airs,” as played by the Hurtado Brothers organization, is an exceptionally catchy ‘“‘quick time’”” number, and its companion piece, Strauss’s ‘‘Artist’s Life Waltz” shows the unique band to advantage in a different tempo.

Stanton’s annual report as chief of the fire department and as fire marshal and superintendent of the fire alarm telegraph shows that the city has been remarkably free from any large and serious fires the past year, as well as a much smaller number of alarms responded to by the depart- ment. The total number of alarms was 139 bell, 97 telephone, and 13 still or verbal. This is the smallest num- ber of alarms in several vears and 73 le than reported one year ago and 103 less than the largest number ever responded to by this department in one year. Fire Prevention Movement. The reduced number of fires and alarms can be accounted for only by the fire prevention movement in Whi(jl\ the department has been interested in trying to educate the public to be care- fu the handling of fire combusti- bles, matches, etc., and not allowing rubbish to accummulate around their premises. The reduced losses can be largely ac- sounted for by our motor apparatus, which has been the means of pr ing several fires from obtaining head- way and causing large losses either by fire or water damage, owing to the quick responses made by auto appara- tus over horse-drawn, hand-drawn, or r any other method.

Scenes from the life of Uncle Sam’s “boys in khaki” are, it is announced, accentuated in the performances of the combined Buffalo Bill (Himself) and 101 Ranch Shows, which are scheduled to exhibit in Norwich, on Monday, July 10. Preparedness, which is the name of the new military spec- tacle which is offered as the leading feature of this season’s exhibition, is, it is announced, presented on a scale of magnitude and with an attention to realistic detail that would have been impossible without the active cooperation of the United States War Department. Purely as a military spectacle Preparedness is said to be an absorbingly interesting and thrill- ing presentation of military strenuous- ness, while, as a patriotic appeal to the country it is declared to be with- out precedent. An army of soldiers and hundreds of horses are utilized 29-31 Shetucket St. in the display. Among the other offerings possible by a big congress of cowboys, cowgirls, Indians, Mexicans and other wild west people, is an attack on a pioneer’s train of “prairie schooners’” punishment of the horsethief, accord- ing to the summary code of the ear- ly days on the frontier; a stagecoach hold-up, in which a big bunch of Mexicans are utilized; the pony ex- press, showing how the mail was car- ried by means of relays of fast horses; 2 buffalo hunt, illustrating the Indian method of stalking the wild bison; Indian sun, green corn, ghost and war dances, led by the great Sioux medi- cine man, Lone Wolf; a round-up of long-horned cattle, in which the skill of the cowboys, both as horsemen and in handling 'the lariat is shown; roughriding by cowboys and no less daring cowgirls, and other exhilarat- ing events. One of this season’s nov- elties is a “silk hat tournament,” in which a bunch of cowboys, mounted, wearing high hats and armed wit: short riding whips, try to knock off the “tiles” of their adversaries. For the purposes of the broncho-busting contests fifty wild horses have, it is announced, recently arrived from the 101 Rench at Bliss, Oklahoma.

UNVEILING OF SOLDIERS’ AND SAILORS’ MONUMENT Exercises Were Carried Out by Gro- ton People on the Fourth. and sailo monu- late Robert A. Gray of Groton borough gave to the town of Groton has become an established feature of the fort grounds and the exercises of unveiling were conducted Tuesday at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Mr. Gray died about 10 years ago and in his will the following refer- ence to the monument may be found. “To Frederic Bill and Charles E. White is left in trust the sum of $3,- 200 for the building of a monument in the village of Groton Bank which shall stand in perpetual commemora- tion and honor of the Groton boys who served in the Union armies in the great Civil war and especially those who fell in the battles of that war. “] direct that the monument shall bear this inscription: ” ‘Erected by Robert A. Gray and dedicated to the memory of his brave comrades who offered their lives for their country in the war of 1861-65, and the names of the batles in which they fought.'” Directions regarding the ground on which the monument should stand fol- lowed and then the instrument closes with: “And when all of the work shall make a gift of lot and monu- ment in my name to the town of Gro- ton upon the trust that the town shall forever keep and care for the same and maintain it in good order and re- pair and the same shall forever be known by the name of Gray’s Memor- ial park.” Mrs. Gray died last April and im- mediately foliowing her death the trustees of her husband’'s will made preparations to carry out his direc- tions. The contract was let to the Wester- ly Granite Co. ang work was com- menced on the monument. It has re- cently been completed and brought to the borough where room had been made for it in the fort grounds, a spot which was specially favored by Mr. Gray during his iife but which he The soldiers’ ment which the supposed could not be secured for the .s0.amade arrangements to have it located on property then own- ed by him. The monument stands 22 feet high and faces the southeast, the granite figure looking out across the fort grounds, a specially appropriate site for it, over the land and water which American lives have been sacrificed to_retain. The weight of the stone is about 20 tons. It was shipped in five sectlons and required several days to put in place. Besides the names inscribed, it bears the state seal on one side. The unveiling exercises will be in charge of the G. A. R. and the greater part of the work of preparntion has been done by George L. Cook. The address of the afternoon was made by Hon. A. P. Tanner and the music was by the Moose band. The Veterans, Sons and Daughters of Vet- erans, Woman's Relief corps, Spanish War Veterans, the Boy Scouts and the children of Groton were in the pa- rade. The program was as follows: Music, band; prayer, John S. No- land, chaplain of Perkins post, G. A. R.; music, Nearer, My God, to Thee, band; reading, Rev. A. J. Chandler, patriotic_instructor of Perkins pos music, Star Spangled Banner, band; address, Hon. A. P. Tanner of New London; singing, America, school children, accompanied by band; bene- diction, chaplain of Perkins post; mu- sic, band. Does Not Expect 20 Mill Tax. _“T see no reason why we need an- ticipate a tax larger than 18 mills at the next annual city meeting,” said Mayor Rogers of New London, Mon- Aay. “It is of course somewhat early to discuss the situation and no one can foresee what contingencles may arise in the interim but at the pres- ent time there is nothing which indi- cates to me the necessity for increas- | ing the rate. In my opinion it will be possible to meet all the requisites of the next budget without imposing an additional burden upon the taxpay- ers.” MANY HOLIDAY ARRESTS MADE BY THE POLICE. Several Will Face City Court for Using Revolvers to Celebrate the Fourth. The local police made 16 arrests on Monday and a half dozen on Tuesday. The majority of the arrests were on intoxication charges, while three or four young men were arrested for using rewplvers to celebrate the Fourth. In the oity court Tuesday morning Mrs. Catherine Magnolia was fined $10 and costs for keeping a disorderly house. Joseph Mercier, charged with frequenting, was discharged by the court, and James Marshall, also charged with frequenting, was fined $2 and costs. The case against George Caraclist, charged with discharging a revolver without the necessary permit, was con- tinued until Wednesday. Caraclist ac- cidentally shot a 17 year old boy at the Falls on Monday night while celebrat- ing the Fourth with a Savage auto- matic .32 calibre revolver. Seven Shows at the Davls. The Davis theatre gave seven per- formances on the Fourth, opening at neon and continuing until late in the evening.
