street.
There was but one officiating clergy
man, itev. Nowell M. Calhoun, pastor
of the Second Congregational Church

poration of Yale University. There
was no music and no elaborate re-
marks.
Durlng.the services business in Win-
sted was very generally suspended.
Acting Governor Keeler and Adjutant-
Goueral Col‘e arrived from the the state
military rendezvous at Nlantlc at 12:23
this afternoon. A special train from
Hartford reached Wliisted at about
12:30 bearing a party of prominent
men, including several members of the
late governor's staff. The services be-
gan at 1:30.

A HAPPY DYING BURGLAR.
They are talking about a wounded
Boston burglar who, when dying. only,
said, "Oh, i‘m so happy." It Is not
known whether this dying Boston bur-
glar was sustained in his last moments
by the consolation of religion. or by
the pleasing prospect that he was
about to leav'e Boston forever. Some
might think that because he was a
burglar he couldn't feel the consola-
tions of religion in his last moments,
but they would be wrong. Murder.
crs often dio happy in the hope of
heaven, and why not burglars? Per~
haps this burglar was doubly happy in
the thought that he was going to hun-
ven and was going}.r to leave Boston.
There was a New Haven Woman who
didn't want to die and go to heaven
because she was afraid she would miss
the blessed privileges she had enjoy-
ed in New Haven. but It is easy to see
how a warm-hearted burglar might be.
glad to leave Boston and so to heaven.
Whatever his frame of wind. his case
is an interesting one, and will furnish
some nice questions for debating on-
eletlos.

THINGS A BOY CAN BUY FOR A
PENNY.
“What would the boy of fifty years
ago have thought," said the middle-
aged man,"if he had seen in the store
window some day when he was going
in for a stick of candy, in sign setting
forth that ice cream sandwiches could
be. bought there. for a cent?
"lleen surprised Well. I guess so;
but they add that now. to the list of
things that children can buy in the
stores for a'cent. it‘s been on the
street to be sure, for two or three
years, but it is to me no less a wonder.
fui thing to be sold in poorly stores———
and yet nobody winks.
"The fact is that, you can buy so
many luxuries now for a cent that one
more or less, even so remarkable a
thing as the. modern ice cream sand
Wlt'h really is, doesn't count.
"Before the war. when the. cent was
it big copper coin of twice the diameter
and four times the weight of the pres
ciit cent, about all you could get for a
penny was a stick of candy (pop or-
niint. lemon or wiiitcritzrccni. a paler
of mites (sugared caraway seeds in a
paper tube with a narrow strip of gold
or silver paper running around it spir-
ally. likc ii stripe on a barber pole), ii
cent's worth of jujubc paste, or a pop-
corn ball: and you could get a cent's
worth of iuiniirinds,
"Now loolt at the variety of thing-s
you can get for a cent. Why, penny
candles in llli‘St‘ days arc made in lit-
erally hundreds of mrietlcs, with “Oi"
cities coming out all the time.
“lilamifaclurers devote their wits
and skill and capital to the, devising of
penny 'andics that will sell; a good
seller in such goods is something dc-
cidcdly worth having. And in such a
state of things the ice cream sandwich
for a cent appears in the penny stores
as another novelty. and in these days it
never makes a ripple.
"But while to the children of the
present day the present day‘s variety
of things to choose from when they go
in throat thclr cont has no especial sig-
nificance, because they have always
been accustomed to it. to one who can
recall the meagrcness of the old~timc
assortment of such things It is mighty
significant: nothing, in fact. iIIuStratos

The steamer Enterprise. the pioneer
deep-water oil-burning steamship In
the Pacific. has roturned from Hilo.
Hawaii territory, completing her initial
trip with the new fuel. She was out-
fitted with tanks and oil—burning fur-
naces as an experiment. As many ves-
sels sailing under other flags. pnrticu~
lnriy the Black Sea mercantile fleet of
Rruusiu has successfully used fuel oil
for several years past, no doubt was
cnicrtaincd of the success of the enter»
prise. I-ler tanks curry 750 tons, or
3.000 barrels of crude oil. They were
supposed to have suiliclcnt capacity to
carry her the round voyage. The ea-
timute was a correct one. for she
reached port with a full cargo of 2,500
tons of sugar and enough crude oil still
in her tanks to carry her a long dis-
tance further. The trip was made on
schedule time each way.
Not only has the fuel bill of the Em
terprlse been greatly reduced. but the
voyage was made with u crew of three
firemen instead of twelve employed
when the vessel was a coal burner.
Her experience In thus likely to influ-
ence the. entire steam fleet sailing to
and from this port. The Oceanic
steamship Mai'Iposn has had her fun
naccs altered for oil burning and tanks
have taken the place of her coal hunk-
ors. Other strumshlps are sure to
make similar changes, which will
greatly expand the market for the
crude oil product of this stntc.-~Siln
