A. building under the auspices of the Woman's auxiliary of the Y. The pur- pose of the meeting was to arouse in- terest in.the play, The Five Million, which is to be given in this city dur- Mrs. C. D. Stone, president , opened the meeting shortly before 4 o'clock and called upon -Miss. Elizabeth Abbe .of Wind- ham, who told of the play The Five Million and what it taught. Miss Maude Sheerer of New York, who is to direct the play, explained that this play had run seven months in New York before being released for the road, ‘and when it showed in this city it would be its first time on the stage acted entirely by amateurs. It is the plan of these endeavoring to bring the play to this city to make it possible for the community at large to take part and’ although the play will be presént- ed under the auspices of the Y, per- sons' belonginig to other organizations are to be asked to take part. Frank Hill .then outlined a plan whereby persons. from. towns surrounding Wil- limantic could particinate in the play and arrangements for their trans- portation will be taken care of. Sub- chairmen from each of the surround- ing towns will take charge of these affaire for their own community. Miss Grace Randall, assistant direc- tress of the nlay, explained the com- petitive poster idea. If is her »lan to have people design & poster illustrat- ing the nlay and these will be judzed for their artistic value and advertising value. Three nrizes will be given and the posters will be -placed on exhibi- tics in same local store window. Fol- lowing Miss Randall’s talk, members of the auxiliary served eta and wafers to the guests. Michael J. Welch of Jackson street is a patient at St. Joseph’s hosnital, suffering with injuries ahout the legs and face, received when he was struck by chunks of ice hurled high in the ai* when a manhole cover on one of the Southern New England svstems of conduits on Jackson street in front of the building where Welch and his family lives was blown off. because of pressure of gas within the conduit. Mr. Welch, who is an early riser. is in the habit of taking a walk before breakfast, and Tueésday morhing he left his house about and started down Jackson street. e had not zone far when he was suddenlv hurled up against the show window of a confec- tlonery store occunying the corner gnace., breaking the glass. which cut bim badlv about the face. He also sustained injuries about the legs, due to the chunks of ice hurled by the farce of the explosiom. People living in that neighborhood rushed from their horaes following the explosion and found Welch lving un- conscious upon the sfdewalk about six feet from the manhole that had caused the trouble. His son Paul was the first to arrive and with the heln of James Colgan, a railroad passenger conductor, the unconscious man was carried to his home, from where he was taken to St. Joseph's hosnital for treatment. * By night it was stated that although the patient was suffer- ing from painful wounds he was rest- ing as comfortably as could be. ex- pected. The explosfon at this point was so sever: ‘blocks upants oseph's in the ssure h, as that ' buildings' for felt the effécts and ursés "home at St. )m;%m.l the the . boller building had wn_up.’ The of gas in the conduits was another manhole cover located in front of St. Mary’s Hall on Broad street was own off at about the same time and e ground @round the manhole was loosened considerably.. % “Men employed by the telephone com- pany were unable to explain the cause of the explosion, but persons claiming a knowledge of such things stated that all the vents in the systém had been closed by the ice that had formed in them during the past six weeks or mcre, and a gas that continually forms in these places was unable to escape. This, gas_increased .and ' when: the pressure became too great thie:man- hole covers at the two weakest. points were blown off, thus allowing: the gases to escape. . i People_living in 'that neighborhood claim they have noticed an odor of gas in the air for several months and that the smell of gas was more notice- eble Monday night, so it seems that this explanation is as near the. truth as any. One thing lucky about the ex- plosiuns is that theyfcame at an early hour in the morning. Had the explo- sion occurred during the day'it must have caused more damage than it did, as this stretch of the street 1S heavily traveled. 7 E. P. Chesbro, J. M. Berard, O. B. Robinson and A. L. Weatherhead, del- egates to the republican convention being held at New Haven; left this city Tuesday for that city in ordér to be there at.the openinig of the conference, when Senator Frank. B.

Mr. Healey has carried that piece of steel n his cheek for near'y four years and never knew it was, there until recently.

Mr. Heller bad noticed that Lessard was acting strangely and that he had been talking loud when Chief Killou- rey arrived. Lessard in his statement to the court claimed he had lost his pocketboek centaining some $20 Sat- urday night and that he was nervous on this account. He also claimed he was subject to’ dizzy spells resulting from his being gassed while overseas [aqd that the bottle containing pepper- | mint found on his person was wused to Iprevent these spells.

Find out how this good, old ““thrift”’ idea solves the problem of your New Edison. We adopted the Budget Plan to please two people— Thomas A. ‘Edison and You. A Edison’s great hobby is music. He holds that good music is a necessity in the home. But access to the great operas and concerts has been confined to the FEW. Edison thought of the MANY, and spent $ million dollars in research work to de- velop the New Edison, “the phonograph with a soul.” Edison’s new phonograph Rx- Cruates the great voices and instrumental art of the world, with such perfect realism thet human ear cannot distinguish REe-CreATED art from living art, even wherf the two are heard in direct comparison.
