H. Heyer, who viewed the bady on the arrival of the boat in New London, pronounced death to be due to a complication of heat prostration and alcoholism. ‘The man boarded the boat in New York and soon after he was seen act- ing strangely, throwing some of’ his personal effects overboard, partially disrobing himself, and muttering. Just before reaching New Haven officers found it mecessary to put him under restraint, bringing him to the lower deck on account of the disturbance. He died shortly after. The man was evidently a foreigner. about 45 years of age. about five feet five inches in_ height, and weighed about 160 pounds. FUNERALS Williany Kenneth Miller.

New London as i Miss ¢ long lines of people stood in the blaz- sun waiting for a chance at a th house and the water was crowd- ed with bathers. _-There was also heavy travel te the beaches on Sunday. The steamer Nelseco II which started its summer excursion season Sunday to Oecean beach carried about 125 passengers on its trip from here at 10.30 im the morning and had about 175 on beard when it returned at 6.30. Mohegan park furnished refuge for some, though not so many as if they could have reached there by aute ser- vice instead of a dusty walk as was the cage on Saturday. On Sunday the threatening weather kept the park from having a large crowd. Park Su-. perintendent Edward Smith is trying to induce some of the auto bys men to run a service to the Park Sun. days and on Saturday afternoops. The |- refreshment stand is in operation at the lake and the manager of that is also trying to run a jitney line to the park. There is to be a band gencert at the park, Superintendent Smith says, two weeks from Sunday, Evidences that the summer season is on in e;rnes"o.r: to be seen Sun- day in the number 6f automobiles that passed through the city carrying fam- ilies with parts of ‘their baggage or summer season equipment for cottaze life piled into the seats or strapped onto the running boards. Trunks, hammocks, baby carriages, bieyeles, and various other kinds of summer impedimenta were noticed that could be more readily carried that way than eonsigned to the uncertainty of rail- road travel and hard hearted baggage smashers.

Per- haps the man is In a little lower class than the small boy, for the old- er person must realize that he is doing semething wrong, while it may per: haps be somewhat extenuating in the case of a child. oth these things have occurred and are said to be occurring of late with altogether too much freuency, Few people ~ are aware of the faet that the drawing of one’s finger in the dust on-the hood or on the body of a newly varnished vehicle will leave its mark, no matter how careful a washing may be given the vehicle. Only another coat of varnish will re- meove the mark. It does not seem pos- sible that ih sis so, but any painter will veueh for the truth of the asser- tion. The child who is marking the bodis {of automeobiles with ‘pins or nails, however should ~be severely admon- ished by his parents and if such a youngster is caught in the aet by the police he will probably have the time of his life. At the present cest of painting an automobile, which_may run all the way from $50 to $150, tne owner does npt feel kindly toward anyone who avails himself of the eonvenience of an automobile as a mateh box or a foundation for a scroll with a pin or a nail.
