When the Civil war. broke out Mr. Lyman enlisted in the 21st Connecti- part in some 20 battles, his last fight being in the battle of Winchester, when his horse was shot under him, and he himself sustained bad wounds. His wound received in this battle came at an unfavorable time for Mr. Lyman, as his name had been sent in and he had been recmomended for a lieutenancy. At the close of the war he enrolled in the Hartford Commer- cial school, believing that he could no longer follow his trade as a carpenter due to the injury to his leg. He was graduated from that school and also regained the use of his leg, thus being able to take up his former occupation. Retiring from this line of work'in later years, he was chosen or appointed to eeveral town and citv offices. being alderman, probation officer and arent of the town denosit fund. For the past 10 vears he had held the office of probstion officer for this city, doing his work faithfully. His kindly advice to those who came under his care during these vears sent many a person back to ‘his or her work with . new hopes of success. In politics Mr. Ly- man was ever a staunch republican.

This latest demand has been settled by agreement of the builders to pay the carpenters $26 a weeksfor in- )| side work and $27 for outside work. This agreement was reached after the builders had offered the men an in- ciease of 11 per cent., to ‘take effect June 1st, and their offer had been re- fused by the carpenters. ' The date finally decided upon was April 1st and after that date dnother readjustment of wages is to be considered. !

A Galety comedy and an up to date weekly, are also in- cluded in this big show at the Strand. ‘Today is your last day to see it. ' At the Strand. The Strand's wonderful _program for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday is one that is full of entertainment from start to finish. Little Jerry, who is called the vest pocket comedian or A Mite of Mirth, will start things off. He is one of the smallest funny men on the stage today. He is only forty- two, inches tall. He will entertain you with his latest talk, songs and dances., He is sure to have you laugh- ing all the way through. Duncan and Abbert is a monologue and singing act that is a scream. Thisman and woman win the prize when it comes to mak- ing things merry. This act is a show by litself. .Chief Little Elk will be seen in a spectacular revue. This act uses all its own scenery and it will ‘make you think back to the days of '49. 'The seven-reel special feature that will be shown is adapted from Howard Hall's stage play of the same name which had a _successful eight months’ ‘run at the Republic theatre, New York city. Starting out ‘at a placid pace the film gathers speed as it advances, the interest steadily in- creases and the atmosphere of sus- pense is sustained up to the final reel, which closes with a forceful climax. In-the judgment of many 'spectators, R the dignified figure of the self-sacri-) ficing Dr. Webster will be listed as overshadowing the other principals. Howard Hall gives a remarkably fine performance in. this role, the strength her good work ag the heroine, a fact all the more surprising because she has heretofore been identifieqs only with light roles lacking in dramatic intensity. . George Larkin, as Jack Bowling, shines forth as an extremely acceptable and earnest hero. The supporting cast has been well chosen, and every, moemnber of it is thoroughly equal to the demands of the drama. The photography is of first class brand. Especial -praise should be awarded to the close-ups. which with- out exception are splendidly posed and filmed. There are a number of beautiful . garden views, richly fuf- nished interiors and effective decep| sets in abundance. A comedy and.weckly seen at the Strand. will also be | | MOOSE BAZAAR IS TO | OPEN AT OLYMPIC HALL The city of Norwich is to have an- other indoor bazaar, according to a display announcement in this morn- ing’s Bulletin.
