Johnson says that during the day a number of wedy looking fellows came [in and asked for an old hat, and just at night one came in bare-headed, and ‘ 1wanted an old soft hat, which was given him. .Mr.’ Johnson is of the opinion that the burglary was the work of a ugang of tramps. who. anxious to make a 5 good appearance just before election time, took this method of getting cloth— ; ing for their weary heads and tired feet. . Everything ’in and‘ about the East Avenue Methodist Episcopal church, today, indicates that preparations are being made for one of the greatest Ep- ‘ worth League group meetings ever held in the district. It is more than proba- ble thdt the church will be quite to slhallto hold the multitude who will opowdtohear the elorluent speaker of the“ evening. Dr. Loris A.

D. Randall and Miss Annie Quirk. Mr. ‘ Randall was given a quit claim deed for the property on which his deck is built. for censidera'tions not named, but pre- sumably in exchange for another tract owned by him. A quit claim was otter- edMiss Quirk, provided she would lay a curb-stone around her corner. and im-‘ prove the property by cutting on about two feet and terracing it up. This she refusedtodo. saying she would enter into a law-suit with the town first. The meeting of the Bpwcrth League held in the Methodist church parlor. last night. was a brief one. owing to the re- neural and other matters demanding the attention of the members. Danbury Jack and wife made themselves objec- tionable by their presence. Both were intoxicated, and Jack attempted to de‘ liver a speech on no-license. but was called down by Berton Charles H. Ben. mtt. ‘Much credit is due Mrs. William ‘Povez for the tasteful decorations which have been arranged under her supervision at the East Avenue church. for today’s convention.

He introduced his inventions at many courts. He remained abroad about]? years and made many warm friends in many lands by his modest. unassuming frankness and his hh‘bitnal courtesy. And he received great honors at the courts of kings. I shall not smm forgot the stories he told of the events witnessed in these Euro can capitals, they were all so in- terestilig. and he. was so wholly frank and natural in their narration. H0 was long at the court of thecznr. a sovereign who was deeply interested in the work of the inventor. When Mr. Francis went to Enron». he had letters of intro- duction from many prominent Ameri- cans. in St. Petersburg he called upon the American minister. Here. as he told me laughingly. he forgot all about his letters of intrmluvtion, mn- uf which was from the president of the United States and another from the merctary of state. and merely told some of the oili- cials connected with theAmoricnn lega- tion that he wished to llli‘l'l tho czar. “What!" the official ejaculated in amazement. “Meet the czar? impossia hie, man! Do you realize what you are asking—an intrmlurtitm lo tlmczar of Russia? Why, it would take you a month to got an intrrslnction to the grand duke. to say nothing about getting into the presence of the czar. ” Mr. Francis wr-nt away. and. with true American indvmndem-u. called at the palace of the grand duke. lie sent in his plain visiting or business card. He had not long to wait. ’l‘lwntlvndant ushered him into a magnificent salon in the ducal palace. ”From the farther side of the splendid mom. " said the old gentleman to me as he related the story, his eyes glowing with tho recollection of the triumph of the hour. “appeared the Grand Duke Constantino. one of America’s truest friends, and. both of his hands outstretchmi. he took both of mine in his as he reached m0.” Tin- m-and duke asked what he could do for Mr. Francis. the 1mm of whom they had heard scrunch. whose life sav- to Rama‘s ”would. and whom inven- tions promised so much for Russia-«- what could he do? Mr. Francis said that he would like to meet the cast. thirtainly. The grand duke would make an appointment with him iodine in a day or two with the czar "at the palace. And this was his intrmiuction to .Alrxsndor ll. a ruler who never forget this gentle, mmlcst American. and who through long years owned him as a clwrislwd frimul. A day or two afterward Mr. Francis strolled mm the olllcc of the American iegntion. ldoubt mt there was a merry twinkle in his eye, for "union loved a mile! joke better than he tllrl. The official to whom Mr. Francis had uxprrsml his theirs to inset the our smite up jokingly: “Wvll. how are you mming on in your efforts to hurt the czar?" "l have even him.

It may relieve the minds of Rowayton residents to know that the handsome Russian collie “Donshka.” owned by Miss Josephine 0. Bowen. of “Wood- shit." was humanely disposed of on Fri- day last by Dr. Betas. of South Nor- walk. . The Russian collies are bred from wolihounds. descendents of the grey wolf of Siberia. and the adage that "blood will tell” was again verified in this instance. for. although generations of training had resulted in producing a dog of great intelligence. the disposition remained surly and treacherous.
