The installation of the new lodge at Wallingford was at- tended by delegations from practically all lodges in the state. It is very apparent that the two suspicious looking men who took @ shot at Officer McLean lact Friday morning were cracksmen and burglars of the first order, they having left be- hind them in their. hasty departure from the scene a 3§ calibre gun, bul- lets and ‘a 14-ig¢h jimmy. The dis- covery was brought about b two oy three young girls playing hide and seek in the yard of John G. Bill on North street. One of the girls came running up to Officer Grady on Main street with four of the bullets in her hand. She was quite excited and told the officer of the discovery. The lat- ter 'investigated the grounds and in addition to the bullets, found the gun and jimmy, which are now in the pos- session of Chief Killourey. The fact that the men threw away their equip- ment hows how cloge the local officers were on their trail, the former evi- dently fearing capture with the equip- ment on their person. One of the cartridges in the gun was empty, ap- parently the one fired at Officer Mc- Lean. It is said these same two men were seen the afternoon previous to their appearance in town, lying under a_tree near one of the billboards on Windham road. Jerome Lacey and Miss Nezzie Hen- derson, both of this city, were $nar- ried Tuesday evening, June 3, by Rev. A. D.

Ses- sions, 69, occurred Wednesday morn- ing at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Frank J. Kirtland, No. 114 High street. She had not been well for a long time and ahout two weeks ago, she had the misfortune to fall, and in doing so she broke her hip, thereby hastening her The deceased had been a res- ident of this city for over 45 yearsand was the widow of Lucius S. Sessions, to_whom she was married June 1, 1873, She was born in Coatsville, Pa., the daughter of John and Maria (Roberts) Dickey, ad had a large um- ber of friends and acquaintances in this city who are saddened Dy the news of her death. She is survived by one daughter, Mrs. Frank J. Kirt- land, with whom she made her home and a cousin, James Calhoun of New Rochelle, N. Y. Mart Falvey, 34, of Bridgeport, died ssday night at the Man: field State Training School and Hosp from epilepsy In a ddition to his vy, the deceased brother, Thomas, and a Maurice Jelly, all of Dridgepori. The body will be sent to Bridgeport for burial on the 7 o'- clock train this (Thursday) morning. Mrs. J. Clark Norton, formerly of this city, died last week at a private hospital in Hartford and was buried Monday cat Middle Haddam, Conn. Norton was over 76 years of age and had been ill for a long time. She was well known here and had many local friends, who are grieved to hear of her demise. She is survived by her husband and four daughters. Judging from the number of cars which park along side the curb on Main street during the day in this city, especially during the afternoon, it ‘won't be long before a new ruling will have to be enforced in regard to the manner of parking cars. As it is now everybody drives up to the curb, leaving their cars headed either di- rectly east or west' with the result, owing to the number, that many times owners find their cars “boxed in” and unable to move them until somebody else move theirs first. This situation could easily be remedied by parking the cars, between Bank and Church streets, where the congestion is, at an angle with one rear wheel touching the curb, thus allowing every owner to move his car in and out without any delay. This method is in vogue in other towns and seems to work ad- mirably although there are some ob- Jections to it. The second game of the season in the schedule of the Willimantic Indus- trial Baseball League between the teams from the Up-Street industries and the department team of the Ame- rican Thread Company, resulted in a victory for the former by a score of to 2. These twilight games are sche- duled for three nights a week and are creating considerable interest in the game locally.
