—(3lass Prizes Awarded
The glorious June sunshine of yes-
_ terday heralded a day long anticipated
by the pupils of Miss Baird's institute.
Of all the entertainments of Com-
mencement Week, none is so dear to
the hearts of the students as is .that
of Class Day.
At four o'clock all met in the Assem-
bly Hall. where the line of march was
formed. Led by the little prize bearer,
Miss Gladys Sanger, the line was form-
etl according to the rank of the pttplls.
from the lowest department to the
Seniors. When all was in readiness.
the school marched in pairs to the
platform, erected for the exercises on
the north side. of the West Avenue
House; here they parted, forming an
aisle for the Seniors to pass to their
places. The stage was beatttifitly
draped in the class colors of gold and
white. High above and at the back of
the stage was the class motto, “Faire
et Tairo" in gold and white. set into a
wide field of deep bitte, the school color.
Below the motto was a shield. bearing
the device ’03. Flowers and trailing
vines added to the beauty of the doc:

being everywhere in evidence; bttt all
felt that the stage setting was lncbm-
'plete ‘tfll the nine Settlers in their
dainty white gowns had taken their
places, their fresh. girlish faces being
the one. touch needed to complete the
beauty of the scene. The school then
filed into the places prepared for
them on the lawn in front of the stage,
and Miss Flynn delivered in a clear,
strong voice a very graceful address
of welcome. This was followed by the
Class Chronicles, of which the first
portion was given by Miss Tallmadge.
and th later, covering the .Acadcmlc
years, y Miss Parker. Both sections
were-very cleverly written. causing
great amusement among the listeners.
Miss Tallmadgn especially provoked
much morrlment by the reminiscences '
of her childish s oldays, as she and
Miss sermons: t Vf' thirteen years'
association with the school. Miss
seas then read ,in a clear, sweet voice
her class poem. This dainty bit of
verse, 3. copy f which follows, receiv-
ed nppreciati applause:
WHAT THE ROBINS TOLD.
High on the old elm tree
Two robins sang in glee
one day in June;
Heads bobbing up and down.
Telling breezy news of town
in a gay tune.
One sang: “You know. my dear.
When first we settled here
Some years ago,
Two little girls we found
Running abomhe ground.

“This was thelr_flrst year, too.
They. like out-solves. were new,
Cominghto school;
In through the window there
We watched that little pair,
Minding the rule.

Over the girlsso fair.

abounding in subtle hits and flashes of
wit; it was decidedly original in con.
ceptlon and called forth much. ap-
plause. The tree oration was then
given by Miss l.ina Hill; the oration
was finely written and was well de-
livered: Mitts liill used the tree as a
symbol of class life, carrying out the
idea in beautiful. figurative language.
and concluding with the words, "And
when the Class of 1003 are known no
more on earth, may your branches
still point heavenward, teaching the
lesson of the faith and hope which
guard their slumbering dust." The
young ladies showed themselves very
skillful as amatuer gardeners. attd the
tree was promptly consigned to the
tender care of Mother Earth.
The presentations, which followed
the beautiful class song and chorus.
were made by Misses West and Cal-
vert. These are always the most
mirth provoking feature of the class
day exercises, and today was no ex-
ception. The gifts were well chosen
to convey sly hits at peculiarities and
characteristics which the close nas0c~
iation of school life had betrayed.
these were enthuastlcally applauded;
and when the laughter and applause
had died away, Miss Calvert, in be-
half of the class presented Miss Baird
with a beautiful gift as a token of af-
fection from the class of 1903. expres-
sing such fitting and touching senti-
ments as added much to the charm of
the gift.
Miss Byingion then followed with
the charge to the Juniors, which was
responded to by Miss Mattel Spang. of
the class of 1904. Both papers were a
mixture of fun. pathos. and serious
earnestness, both were well read and
represented strong class spirit, tutti
both were heartily applauded.
Mis Baird then read the class ranks.
which reflected great credit on both
pupils and teachers: tlten came a
pause of breathless expectation which
was rewarded by the announcement
of the prizes and honors. The follow-
ing young ladies won a prize for per-
fect attendance throughout the year:
Miss Miiicent Crunden, Miss Eleanor
Richmond. Miss Dorothy Davenport,
Miss Leone Pierce, Miss Ruth Dan-
iels. Miss Helen Hoyt.
The neatness prize was won by Miss
Marjorie Slack, of Washington, D. C..
and the sunshine prize by Miss Mabel
Spang. of New York City. A prize for
good scholarship and excellent deport-
ment was also given to eacit of the
Seniors. The salutafory was awarded
to Miss Beatrice Calvert. of New
York City, and the valedictory to Miss
Eloise Bylngton, of Norwalk.
A procession was then formed, and
the school visited the class lvles and
trees of former years. saluting each
with three hearty cheers. n’hen at last
they came to the tree of limit. the
cheering was supplemented by the
class call.
The M. B. I. song was then sung by
the school, after which an informal re-
ception was held on the lawn and light
retreshments were served.
The commencement exercises will
be held this evening. beginning at
7:30. The graduating class numbers
nine members this year.

Woman found in “Cin-
der" lot was Mrs. Emil
felber and came from New
York with Her liusband Six
Weeks Age. and was Em-
ployed by loth & Go.
The remains of the woman who cont-
mitted suicide yesterday tnorning. in
the “cinder" let. off Beiden avenue.
Norwalk. were identified this morning.
as those of Mrs. Emil It‘elbor, wife of
a silk ribbon weaver, employed by
Joseph l.otlt a Company. wlto. a short
time ago. took possession of the new
factory in Grand street.
The identity of tlto woman was
learned by means of Councilman Mich-
ucl .i. Riordan. Mr. Riordan viewed
the remains yesterday afternoon, and
then was positIVe that he had seen the
woman before. but cottld not tell
where. This morning the thought
came to him that the woman was the
wife of a silk weaver, to whom he had
rented a house he owned at No. 11
York street. The woman was ill the
habit. of passing his residence each
morning. and Mr. Riordan asked the
members of his fatnlly if they had
seen her pass this morning. Learning
that site ltad not been seen today. he
felt positive that he was right in his
supposition. and went up to the house
to further investigate. The house was
shut. up.
Mr. Riordan communicated his be-
licf in the matter to n boarder of the
Felbers, and it was learned that Mrs.
Felber was not at home yesterday.
when he and l-‘olber went to dinnr.
The latter is a German. unable to speak
English. and accompanied by a fore.-
matt of the mill as interpreter, came
down to Raymond & Son's morgue. and
positively identified the woman as his
wife. He was considerably affected by
the sight of his dead wife.
Through the interpreter he told Mod-
icnl Examiner 8. H. Huntington that
the last time he saw her alive. was a
be was leaving his home. for work yes-
terday morning. There had not been
the slightest difference between them
at that time. and when he went to
work she was apparently very happy.
He could not understand why she had
committed such a rash act.
Feiber said that his wife was a
Swiss. and that as near as he could
tell. without looking up the family
record, his wife was forty-eight years
of age. Her mother and father reside
itt New York. He left for the city this
morning. to tell 'her people and make
arrangements for the burial. which
will probably be in New York.
Felber and his wife have. been in
Norwalk for the past seven weeks.
having resided at No. it York street
for the past three weeks. and the pre-
ceding four weeks boarded itt the bus-
iness portion of the city.
Their boarder corroborated Felber's
statement that there was no difficulty
yesterday morning. previous to their
starting for work. and he said that
Mrs. Felhor was quite Jolly. When
they returned for dinner they found
the breakfast dishes just as left in the
morning, nd were at a loss to know
where M Felber had gone. The bus-
band evidently was at a loss to know
what to do. and for that reason did not
report the matter to the police. belicv-
ing. perhaps, that his wife had left
suddenly for New York to visit her
folks. Some are of the opinion that
possibly she had become very home-
sick at having been away from her own
people, after having lived so near them
in New York.
A young woman on a bicycle stopped
it Raymond & Son's this morning.
fearing that the remains were those of
her mother-in-law. that relative evi-
dently having disappeared. Upon
learning that. it was not. she express-
ed herself as very mtlch relieved. The
name of the young woman was not
known.
REMOVING AN OLD BUILDING.
Frank N. Forrla Making Alterations
and improvements to His Property.
Fix-Councilman Frank N. Ferris has
commenced the work of demolishing
a portion of the old barn on his prop-
erty in Elm Grove street. Abram
VanBuskirk. the carpenter. is doing
the work. The barn is one of the land-
marks of the town, havingdte’en erect-
ed upward of half a century. and used
for many years by Samuel Durand. a
well—known butcher of those' days, as
a slaughter house. it was the custom
to bring large droves of cattle from
New York city to "Norwalk, and Mr.
Durand would take the pick of the an-
imals every week "or two, and keep
them in a large pen in the roar of the
barn until such time as he desired to

out in good shape. Others were not so
good. hTe Stars were costumed in
