excelled in every particular the previ-
ous celebrations.
The spacious hall was elaborate with
tiecorations,‘ihe colors of the greatest
republic of the world predominating.
The inspiring flag of America and the
memory of the illustrious patriot were
truly and appropriately honored by last
night's great gathering of the most
prominent men of The Norwaiks and
neighboring cities.
The committee of the club. under
whose supervision this big undertaking
was carried out. is deserving of the
most. hearty congratulation for the;
marked success attained. ,
The arrangements for the big func-
tion devolved on the entertainment
committee of the club, composed of
John J. Cavanagh. Dr. William J.
Tracey. Thomas McMahon. M. .i. How-
ard, John J, Walsh, William Howard
and M. J. Riordan. .

ing wit and humor, adding to the pleas-
ure of this mom table occasion.
Probably the all has never been as
elaborately decorated as last night.
American emblems hung from all of
the walls, the balconies. the stage and
from every available position. From
the three chandeliers‘were suspended
myrisds of flags of all nations. while
the stage, in addition to other decora,
tions. was banked with palm, other
potted plants. holly evergreen and
much more vegetation. Folds of ever-
green and holly graced the balcony
ice Cream
incandescent globes shaded
with green and pink tissue paper, cast
benign rays on the enchanting scene.
The back wall of the stage was cow
ered with a great forty foot American
flag. owned by ex-Mayor John J. Cava-
nagh. of South Norwsllt. This is one
of the largest flags in The Norwalks.
Suspended over the front of the
stage was a large framed portrait of
the beloved martyr president. Lincoln,

terday Afternoon
The adjourned annual meeting of the
atoch-holdcrs of The New England
Food Company was hold at the offices
of the Company in East Norwalk yea-
terday. A very careful investigation
of the business affairs of the company
was made by the stock-holders, which
'proved in the main, very satisfactory.
it appeared that the company had a
fully equipped factory for the manufac-
turing of cerenl foods an that nothing
remained but to success lly introduce
the foods manufactured. it appeared
that tho Goodrich Food. which was rec-
ently placed on the market has proved
very popular. and it was thought ad-
visable to push~its introduction us run-
idly as possible into every city in
New England. and later on through the
Middle West and South. This Food is
made principally from cntirc wheat.
and is pronounced by Prof. V. von Ego
lof‘lstcin as the moat palatable and ap-
petising, as well as nourishing of any
cooked cereal now before the public.
Thc indian Digestive Biscuit, made
by the Company is now in very gon~
ersl demand throughout the United
States. shipments being made as for
West as California. as far North as No-
va Scotia and one or two shipments
have been made to the American rea~
ideals of Cuba, The prospects are that
these biscuit will make a very substan-
tial business of its own. as the sales
have been substantially increasing
without doing any advertising. it is
now proposed to bring to the attention
of the public generally through the
medium of advertising in the newspa-
