RENTS ROOF TO CAMERA OPERATORS One Property Owner Profits by Sub- marine’s Visit to Extent of $100. Somebody beside the Eastern For- warding Co. profited by the arrival of the Deutschland. Ambitious photog- raphers and moving plcture men strove in vain to get a view of the submersible Wednesday. Their ef- forts up to afternoon were futile. ‘Then some bright mind conceived the idea of mounting his machine on the roof of a dwelling on the embank:- ment near the office of the New Lon don harbor commission. He was giv- en ready permission by the owner for the small fee of $5. He communi- cated the rate to his mssoclate artists and it is estimated that the said owner collected ~ approximately $100 in this manner. Still_another film operator took a more desperate chance and hired the use of a pile driver and tug. Climbing to the topmost point of the driver, placed close to the floating fence which protects the Deutschland, he clicked away at his leisure, with good results. Owners of small boats ran close up to the fence, climbed the masts and got a good 100k at the un- dersea freighter. ST AGNE'S GUILD. Baked Bean Supper Was Followed by an Interesting Business Meeting.

Has Uncle on Deutschland, When the Deutschland slipped into New London harbor early on Tuesday morning it brought as a inember of the crew an uncle of Benjamin Holli- of Bank street, employed on thd night shift of waiters at O'Leary’s Keep Smiling restaurant in State street. The presence of Holliday's un- cle aboard the submersible was a sur- prise to the young man and to his mother, who resides in Stonington. He notified his mother, who went to New London to see her brother, who had been last heard from as a soldier at the front with five other brothers. A very happy family reunion resulted. Great White Way in New London. The Great White Way in State street in New London is unanimously pro- nounced o brilliant success.

Much Activity at Shipyard. An unusual amount of activity pre- vails in the Palmer shipyard and gives rise to the feeling of certainty that the great amount of work carried on there now and that ordered for the immediate future means the steady growth of the business there and th continuance of one of the largest in- dustries in the United States.—New London Da; Eastern Point Road Improved.

No consideration for the five hundred was paid. Oct. 16 Herbert F. Brown was appointed conservator of Nelson A. Brown. The defendants have refused to return the money. Elizabeth A. Anderson of New Lon- don_has filed action against Edith A. Anderson, et al, also of New London, claiming $3,500 damages.

MEMBERS OF DEUTSCHLAND'S CREW COMING TO NORWICH. Electrician ~Schwarzchild Will - “Visit to Cousins Here Bring Officer With Him. Pay and” Will The German submersible merchant- man Deutschland in port at New London brought with her as a ‘mem- ber of the daring crew Ludwlg Schwarzchild, electrician, cousin = of Mrs. A. M. Pasnik, wife of A. M. Pasnik of the Pasnik Co. of this city. Mr. and Mrs. Pasnik went to New Lon- dor on Thursday evening to see Elec- trician Schwarzchild and if possible get a glimpse of the Deutschland. They saw Mr. Schwarzchild and talked ith him about two nours but they were not allowed on board thé sub- marine. Schwarzchild spoke very interestingly of the trip across. He said they ran into very rough weather and that he never saw such mountanious waves as on this last trip across. Several of the crew were seasick. This was while the submarine rode the waves. ~While underwater they had hut little trouble. At one time the eslire crew thought they were lost for the submarine practically stood on end for some minutes. Luckily for them the engineer suc- ceeded in righting the submarine and they proceeded without further trouble. Mr. Schwarzchild will come to Norwich on Saturday to remain over Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Pas- nik. He will be accompanied by an officer of the submarine and Norwich people will be afforded an opportuni- ty of grasping the hands of these dar- ing sailors at the Pasnik store on Saturday evening about 9 o'clock. Mr. Schwartzehild who is but twenty-one years of age was a member of the crew of the Deutschland on her first trip across when she landed at Bal- timore, Md. He brought with him from Germany a number of souvenirs for Mr. and Mrs. Pasnik. The gifts included cigars for Mr. Pasnik.

It is over the shoulder of an Asso- clated Press telegraph operator that history may be read as it is written, says the latest issue of the Service Bulletin of the Associated Press. On the aftérnoon -of Saturday, Oct. 7th at 229 o'clock there could have been fead this bit of history in the mak- ing: Boston, October 7.—Second inning, second half; Lewis up. Ball one. Foul. Strike one. Ball two. Ball three, trSike: two. Lewis walked. Gardner up. Gardner bunted safely— F-L-A-S-H- Newport, R. I, October 7.—“A Ger- man submarine has arrived here.” It was thus while the attention of the newspapers and millions of their followers was riveted on the opening game of the world's series and thous- ands of miles of leased wire were humming with the play-by-play ac- count of the game that one private in the ranks of the Associated Press cor- respondents flashed one of the greatest news beats of the war—just as Gard- ner bunted. It was the start of the biggest news story that has developed on this side of the Atlantic, in connection with the war, and the ‘mannmer in which that story was covered by the Associated Press is_itself a story. The New England headquarters of the Associated 'Press at Boston was a busy office on the afternoon of Oct. 7th, for it had added to its usual rou- tine the task of reporting the open- ing game. Boston was at bat; three of the Red Sox ware already on bases and two men were owt, Hooper was up and everybody was waiting in sus- pense to see what Hooper would do when the telephone boy answered a call. “Hall of Newport is calling,” he an- nounced. One of the editors took the line, with M. W. Hall, the day correspondent of the Associated Psess at Newport on the wire. “A German submarine is coming in- to the harbor,” he exclaimed. “We have seen it coming in.” “Are you sure?” asked the Associat- ed Press. “Pretty sure,” said Mr. Hall This was 2.i6 p. m. Even with a trusted correspondent there is an ele- ment of danger in flashing news which may" later prove untw\e. So within four minutes Boston had the sovernment radio station at Newport on the long distance telephone and eight minutes later it was able to con- firm the report and flash it across the continent. In the meantime an assistant to Frank M. Wheeler, the night corres- pondent of the Associated Press at Newport, was making desperate ef- forts to get a telephone wire to Bos- ton with the same news. It happened that Mr. Wheeler's paper, the New- port Herald, was being served with baseball news over a wire from the Associated Press in Boston, and over this Mr. Wheeler's man sent the first news that the submarine was a naval vessel. To Mr. Wheeler belongs the greater share of the glory of the “beat” for it was he who was first to iden- tify the U-53, and bring a complete report from her. Norwich received the news of the U-53's arrival in Newport as it was flashed over the wire from coast to coast by the Associated Press. Nor- wich baseball fans lined up on Frank- lin street in front of the Bulletin of- fice were among the first in this city to hear the announcement as it came over the Bulletin’s A. P. wire the in- stant it was flashed to the other news- paper offices throughout the United States. FUNERAL. Joseph Hubbard. The funeral of Joseph Hubbard was held from his late home Thursday aft_ ernoon at 2 o'clock with prayer_ser: vices conducted by Rev. R. B. Will- iams, pastor of Mount Calvary Bap- tist church. _The body was conveved to the church where public_services werc held with the pastor officiating, assisted- by Rev. ‘E. George Biddle, pastor of the McKinley Avenue A. M. E. Zion church and Rev. R. B. Harrls, pastor of Grace Memorial church. Friends acted as bearers and the choir of the church sang. Burial was_in Maplewood cemetery where Rev. Mr. Williams_conducted a_committal ser- vice. There were many beautifut flowers. Church and Allen were tn charge of the funeral arrangements.
