Smith, Norwich, $15,5%3;: Josephat A. Gau- cher, Putnam, $14019; William A. Tracy, South Coventry, $46,000, FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORIA " | color. Mr. Montealm Ethier and Miss Rose| | siipmeent to the Critics from the New York and Bos- ton newspapers . who attended the opening day of the fifth annuai ex- hibition of the Mystic Art Association at the Broadway school house, Mys- tic, on Thursday, were unanimous in their opinion that this exhibit is the very finest ever given by the local ar- tists. The: hanging_committee , consisting of Charles H. Davis, Mrs. Charles H. Davis, and G. Albert Thompson stud- ied the placing of the various'thirty- four paintings with a fine sense of grouping, using much time and thought in their arrangement. Childe Hassam, N. A. exhibited three studies—Highland Light, a fine stretch of sea as the base of towering cliffs; Provincetown Street, showing the colorful foreign aspect of that fa- mous 6ld fishing town, and The Al- lied Flags, a bit of New York .street, with the brilliant coloring of many fiags, fluttering in the sunshine. s As usual, the paintings exhibited by Charles H. Davis, N .A, were mar- vels of technique and tone. Perhaps the most beautiful is a large canvas, called The Return of Spring, a quie}’ restful composition full of the tend greiens and budding pinks of apple blossoms. , If this picturefs sold dur- ing the exhibition Mr. Davis will give the proceeds to the' Red Cross. G. Albert Thompson at one time director of the Norwich Art School, exhibited three canvases—February Morning, a remarkably _realistic painting of snow and cloudy skies; The Old Homestead, showing an old white house, basking in the sun, sur- rounded by clumps of old-fashioned flowers, which supply a lovely bit of Mr. Thompson was in happier mood, perhaps when he painted The Old_Scotia, showing a fishing smack in harbor at the close of day, whil the glimmering lights from the cot- tage windows stream across the dark waters of the ba: The Rocks, by J. Alden Weir, N. A. showed the masters’ brush in the won. derful“greens and grays of the mas- sive rocks, around which ancient rug- ged trees have wound their roots. Morning Toilet and The Boudoir, by F. C. Friescke; . A, were exquisite studies, showinz minute @nd delight- ful detail, delicately colored and con- ceived, both of interior work and the fascinating feminine model. s In Fleeting Clouds, by Henry B: Selden, there is an effact of fieecy blue and white sky, faintly shadowed by grayish_clouds, which is very beau- tiful. The coloring -is particularly fine, laid on with much feeling. In Summer, by Peter Marcus, a pic- ture of a typical summer day. with a wonderfal blue sky line and a_clump of graceful trees standing motion- less under the hot summer sun, was given honorable mention at the Con- necticut Academy of Iine Arts. The Noank Art Colony is represent- ed by Frederick K. Detwiller, in his canvas, Noank, in Early Spring, a sunny bit of sea bordered cottages, with a sparkle of spring atmosphes everywhere! One of the many gems of the ex- hibit is The Pond in the Woods, by Francis S. Dixon. 'The evening shad- ows and the reflection of tall trees on the bosom of the forest pool are re- markably fine. November Grays, painted by J. Fran- cig Murphy, N. A, and loaned by Mr. George S. Palmer of New London, is an éxquisite study of trees, perfect in outline and composition. A Glimpse of the Sea, painted by Homer D. Martin, N. A, and also loaned by Mr. Balmer. is another love- iy bit of nature study. Other artists whose work supply no- table pictures for the exhibition ar Robert Henri, N. A, Parker Perkins, W. L. Metecalf, Paul Dougherty, N. .y Ivan: Olinsky, Henry W. Ranger, N. A., Lester D. Baronda, and J Hliot Enneking. After viewing the paintings, every- body drifted into the tea rcom, which was most attractively deecorated with artistic bunches of garden flowers and foliage, the walls being himg with the allied flags and French war posters. Delicious tea and sandwiches were served by a committee of Mvstic las dies, h Mrs. B. F. Williams, as chairman of the cogumittee. , No doubt a goodly sum will he d from the proceeds of the ten room, the entire Sum of which ig to be given to the Red Cross. Both from an artistic and commet- cial standpoint, the e: bition is cer- tainly a decided ruccess and a day spent there is well worth while, REV. THEODORE BACHELER APPOINTED ARMY CHAPLAIN.

Fuller of Norwich Town, his mother - having | been Miss Rebecca Hope Fuller: Rev, Theodore aBcheler, pastor of j the Congregational church in North Madison and son of Rev. F. P.

Large congregations attended the three masses in St. Patrick's church Thursday, the feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and many hundreds . received holy communion, especially at the first mass at o'cieck, which- was read by Re Myled P. Galvin. The ‘second lo mass at 7 was read by Rev. Peter J. Cony, and the high mass at 8 was sung by the rector, Rev. J. H. Brod- erick. At this last mass the choir sang, Mrs. F. L. Farrell sustaining the solo portions of the mass with sweet- ness and expression, At the offerto Mr. Farrell played two movements of his ‘own variations on Pleyel's Hymn, with the musicianly skill always ex- pected of him. Vestments and altar hangings were of purest white, in honor of the i maculate Mother of the Son of Go venerated in the feast. During all the services the lights were thrown on the arched panel of The Assumption, re- | production of a famous painting, which fills the space above the memoria marble_altar to Rev. Daniel Mullin, | the pastor, who after his service as ermy cheplain in the Civil war, when assigned to the Norwich parish, hegan the erection of the superb Cchurch. On this altar there is a special mar- ble statue of the Virgin and Child which is an exquisite work of art and was the gift of the late Mr. and Mrs. Humphrey Gallivan, The epistle read in all the masses was from Ecclesiasticus, xxiv. 11-20, and the gospel was Luke 38-42, the story_ of Martha and Mary, and .Our Lord's assurance that being anxious and troubled . about many earthly things is not all but that “one thing is_necessary; Mary hath chosen the best part, which shall not be taken away from her. The Collect was: “Pardon, O Lord, we beseech Tree, the transsressions of Thy eervants, that we who by our { own deeds are unable o please Thee, | may be saved by the intercession of the Motier of Thy Son our Lord. Through the same our - Lord Jesus Christ, etc. Amen. The Posicommunion for the day { was: “Having been made partakers of the heavenly table, we implore Thy ercy, O Lord, our God, that we who | venerate the Assumption of the | Mother of God may by her intercession | be delivereq from all the evils which threaten us. Through the same our Lord Jesus Christ, etc. Amen For centuries the feast of the As- sumption has been popularly known as “Lady Day,” o holy day of obliga- tion on which no practical Catholic misses attending mass unless abso- lutely unable to do €0, and when the Catholic_church in every country of the world emphasizes her veneration for the stainless Virgin of Nazareth, chosen, as related by St. Luke in his 1. 26-33, read at an earlier to become the Mother of the Divine Redeemer, the Son of God.

BODY COMES ASHORE . AT WETKAPAUG BEACH The body of a man, badly decom- posed was washed up on the shore, in front of the Bennett cottage, at Week- The body overed by John Snowden, a boj who is summering at the resort. Chief of Police Thomas E. Brown and Medical Examiner M. H. Scan- lon of Westerly were notified, and they went down at 10.30 o’clock to view the remains. The body had been in the water so long and was so badly decay- ed it was impossible to make any iden- tification whatever. It was the opinion of Dr. Scanlon that the body had been in the water for a month or more. An examination showed that the left leg was fractured at the ankle and the foot dangled, being supported by what flesh remained. The body was clothed in black trougers and a cotton shirt. He was about five feet and nine inches in height and apparently weighed ab- out 190 pounds. In the hip pocket of the trousers were found a $50 Liberty bond of the last issue, No. 1,233324, two $10 bills, three $1 bills. 10 cents in change and blank identification card. He wore a scapular, which would indicate that the man was of Catholic faith, He wore a union suit which bore the makers' name, Carter & Co., size 36.
