By a fire which partly deatroyed the
steam canal boat .i. L. l-inie. at the
wharf ot the Hubbell and Bradley
Company. in Westport. yesterday, Cap-
tain Samuel Greenwood lost his life.
Tire flames Were discovered shortly
after midnight, and the Westport Fire
Department responded with piompt-
trees, and succeeded in extinguishing
the flames before the vessel was en-
tirely destroyed. although the, damage
will be considerable. it was then
that the body of the captain was dis-
covered In the cabin. Although it
was terribly burned it appeared to be
the opinion that death was caused by
suffocation. 'The man had evidently
retired with all his clothing on. anti
was probably awakened by the fire
and had made an effort to get out of
the cabin. as his feet were touching
the floor, while the upper portlorr of
the body was on the bed, with the
(lothing burned from it.

it is believed that an overheated
storm was responsible. for the fire aIIIiI
while. the injury to the boat will lIeI
considerable she can probably be re- I
paired.

After the body had been viewed bv
the medical examiner it was taken In
charge by Undertaker Fable. and re
moved to his rooms. An effort was.
made to communicate yesterday with
the owners of the boat, Barnes & Com-
pany, in Brooklyn. but their office was
closed. The Hyde brought a cargo
of coal in Westport last. week, and
was being discharged there,

Captain Greenwood‘s home was in
Rochester. N. Y., where he is said toI
have a wife and two children. I

Another man was employed on the
boat. but he was away at the time the
fire started.

it is understood that the trolley com-
pany has made application to Mayor

Cavanagh and the city council for their .

approval of a layout which the com-
pany has planned to be nrade under the

satisfactory to the mayor and council
that the blll now pending will be. with-
drawn,

As a consequence of the postpone

METHODIST CHURCH CHOIR. i

 

Will be Composed of a Chorus of from .
Sixteen to Twenty- five Voiced.

As was announced in these co 'umns
about two weeks ago, the quartet of
be
done awav with next year and Mrs.
Harriet Heath Eaton. the present eth—
cient soprano of the quartet will re—
main Mrs Eaton will have entire
charge of the mrrsic for the year, en-
gaging lhe organist and the chorus
which is to take theI place of the pies
eut quartet.

it is probable the present organist
Miss Bertha Hutchinson will be re-

tained. The chorus will be composed _

of from sixteen to twenty- -five well:
trained voices. a‘l in charge of Mrs
Eaton. in return for their services
each singer will receive vocal lessons
from their instructor one lesson a
week.

Mrs Eaton has entered into a con-
tract to furnish the solos throughout
the year and will bring an out of town
soloist here at,least once a nronth. As
she has a large acquaintance with vo
callsts of note it is probable the best
singers in the‘state will be brought
here on different occasions. The music
committee of the church decided that
it was necessary to reduce expenses
and yet maintain the high musical
standard that has characterized all the
services at this church. in order to do
this they decided to retain’Mrs, Eaton
and introduce a chorus choir.
