Solemn Pl
Requiem
Held at St. loseph' 3
Church. ilIis Morning. for
His Holiness loo XIII-—
Eulogy by Rev. William J.
Stanton, 8. .l., New York
A very solemn and beautiful requiem
service was celebrated in St. Joseph’s
Church, this morning, for the late Sov-
ereign Pontiff, Leo Xlll., the univero
sally beloved head of the Roman Cath-
olic Church. The papal banner, a su-
perb flag of white and gold, bearing
the pontlflclal escutcheon of the tiara
and keys of supremacy, measuring ten
by six feet. hung at half mast, and
heavily draped with purple crepe, in
front of St. Joseph's rectory, from an
early hour In the morning.
The main entrance to the church was
decorated in black and purple, and
gave the keynote at the portal to the
elaborate display of drapery within
the beautiful edifice. The chief design
in the scheme of decoration, so effect-
lvely executed by C. A. McNamara.
manager for Krieger a Company. and
his corps of assistants, was the strik-
ing contrast between the deep mural
drapery of the‘Sunciuary and the ex-
quisite white and gold outlines of the
high altar. As one entered the sacred
precincts the eye was at once attract-
ed to the supreme element of the
architectural decoration of the occa-
sion, to which all other details of drap.
ery In chancel, have or gallery, were
subservient, giving evidence in Its
fine cbiaro oscuro cffcct..of superior
decorative taste.
The entire chancel wall with its five
broad panels, was shrouded in a man-
tle of deepest black, bordered and re-
lieved with royal "purple trimmings.
This funereai mantle hung from the
cornice beneath the lamest windows,
and the paintings of the evangelists
extended'all around the Sanctuary, and
covered the delicate fresco drapery
that is so realistic and so at h admir-
ed by all who halve visited 8. Joseph' 8.
Purple 'and black crepe and purple lot-
in ribbon were also used with fine of-
leak in. Tite’ o The panels

CLEVER FAKE AT .QROWNING.
New York Man Taken With Cramps
While in Bathing at Compo.
About as neat a piece of faking as
has, ever been seen at Compo Beach
was carried out on Sunday afternoon.
{There are a party of three gentlemen
camping at the beach. Forgerbaum
and Alexander. of York and
Brooklyn, and Bernard Abrahams, of
South Norwulk.
Sunday afternoon, all went in bath-
,ing at the beach and Fergerbaum
swam out Into the water farther than
the rest. Suddenly he threw up his
hands and called for help. Several
times he went down and the people on
the beach became anxious, thinking
that he was drowning.
His two companions went to his res-
cue and brought him to the shore in
an apparently exhausted condition
The crowd soon gathered about the
fellow and the companions asked that
he be given room to breathe. Then
companions pi _ the fellow up and
carried him ini‘ direction of the
tent.
The crowds of! the. beach couldn't
see the joke.

Has Hlluwed
Complaint in Wood Iii-
vorco Case to be Altered
——-Daisy A. Wood of New
Canaan. llas Since Remar-
maried and Now Has Iwo
Children
Samuel A. Wood, of Rowayton, for-
merly of Stamford. has been allowed
to amend his complaint in the action
for a decree of divorce instituted
against his former wife, Daisy (I. Weed,
by Judge William S. Case. of the super-
ior court bench, before whom trial of
the suit was started, and the motion
for an allowance to amend the coin
piaint was argued. The suit In a very
important one, as upon It hinges the
question as to the legality of a decree
of divorce granted in Dakota. A Con-
necticut court has never yet passed
upon such a decree.
The action Involves some history
which is not particularly creditable lo
the interested parties, Some years ago
Mrs, Weed, alleging a failure on the
part of her husband to fulfill his por-
tion of the marriage contract, sought a
decree of divorce from lum on grounds
allowed by statute. There was a son-
sational trial In the civil superior
court and the decree was finally do-
nied. Shortly after: that Mrs. Weed
went to Dakota and established a legal
residence there, according to the laws
of that state.
After the, residence had been estab
lished. Mrs. Weed‘ made complaint
against her husband, and sought a de-
cree of divorce in that state upon the
same grounds as her decree had been
denied here. A decree was granted up
on n finding of facts presented to a Da-
kota judge by a committee of the
court appointed to hear the testimony.
The finding of facts contained some
allegations discreditable to the bus-
band. He did not contest the divorce
in Dakota. After the granting of bile
decree. Mrs Weed returned to this
state, taking up her residence in New
Gonna.
A shore time after she had obtained
her decree she married again and re-
moved to New Jersey. Two children
resulted from that union. Mr. Weed.
the former husband, learning of the
children. has now instituted suit for a
decree of divorce, alleging Infidelity to
him and calling attention to his former
wife’s two children by her second bus-
band. As the granting of a decree
against her would result in a practical
declaration that her children are ille-
gitimate, Mrs, Weed is hotly contesting
the suit.
In her defense to the complaint.
through her attorney, Samuel Passen-
den, she setup all of the records In the

One Hundred and Eighty
Makers Are Out loday.
Pending the Settlement of
the Dispute Over the bill
of Prices in lime factories
This morning more men left the
three hat factories where there Is a
dispute regarding the signing of the
bill of prices for the coming year. The
finishers at the Crofut it Knapp Com-

now out.
No steps have as yet been taken to-
ward the settlement of the trouble and
the men and employers are both wait-
ing patiently for an adjustment of the
trouble. Neither side seems to worry
much about the outcome. and it was
stated this morning that the makers
who went out today had not been called
out; they simply wanted a vacation
such as the finishers were having,
though in many cases they were com-r
pellod to stop work, as the finishers
were not lhere to complete It.

his grandmother had been using. AI‘

and was rendered insenslble. The boy
was quickly carried Into the house,
and Dr, H, C. Sherer was summoned.
He found the victim suffering from

the accident the child has had only
slight intervals when he knew what
was going on. Yesterday Dr. Charles

The physicians are hopeful that the
boy will recover, but It will be some—

the lad. Mr. Andrews is on employs
