Officers at Norwaili Armory

The canal. muster and inspection of
Companies F-and D and the staff ofil-
cars of the Connecticut National Guard
who are residents of The Nerwaiks.|
took place last night at the Armory.‘
The inspecting ofilcer was Captain.
Thomas W. Winston. oi the finited‘
States Coast Artillery. at present on.
duty‘at Fort Wright. Fisher's island.
He was detAilod in place of Lieutenant
Colonel W. H. Clapp. who was unable
to attend the inspections throughout
the state on account of illness.

The bill of dress for the company
members was blue uniform. campaign
hat and legglns. and the men were in
heavy marching order. With a blanket‘
and poncho rolled inside a shelter half.
and with haversack; canteen, cooking
and mess outfit. each man appeared
ready for business. The commands a...
sembied promptly at the call of the
buglers. at.8‘ o’clock. and with open
ranks the inspection began at once.
Captain Winston was accompanied by
Colonel Gilbert L. Fitch, commanding
the Third infantry. and was most pain~
staking in his work. nothing apparent-
ly escaping his eyes. He carefully in-
spected each of the new rifles recently
issued to the men, passed betwcen and
behind the‘ lines of soldiers. and scan-j
nod each uniform, piece of equipment.
etc.. correcting some slight errors. The,
result of his observations were con-1
fitted to a notebook which he carried.[
and from which he will make his report‘
to the war department at Washington.3
After this the shelter halves were un—
rollcd. and "the inspector looked over;
the contents of the rolls as they lay
on the floor. and then had the men
roll them up again. and march to entire;
ers. Here the rolls were left. and the‘
soldiers prom tly returned to the drill.
floor, and we put through a series'
of maneeuvyga for the purpose of ascer-
taining the discipline and efficiency of
the men. Each of the commissioned}
ofilcers of the companies were obliged
to drill e menu'md' in Winston!

Public school Teachers and Friends
Opsnt Profitlblc lvoning ln Lucio
wood's Hail.

 

MlssGay Zenola McClaron the well-
known elocutlonist thoroughly delight-
ed a large audience at Lockwood's Hall,
Norwalk. last evening. with her por-
trayal oi the well-known play “Shore
Acres." which during the past few
years had such a r n in the ltyhousos
of the country. as McC area dem-
onstrati'il beyond doubt that she has a
remarkable ability for this work.

The entertainment was given under
the auspices of the Town Teachers' Aa-
soclatlon, for the benefit of the Connec-
ticut Teachers' Annuity Guild. a very
worthy organisation, doing an excellent
work in behalf of the teachers of the
state.

The evening's entertainment was
opened by Miss Olive .Gray. the well-

known young Nerwaik violinist, play- '

ing a selection. which met with much
approval. _

Upon her appearance on the stage.
Miss McClarnn was vigorously applaud
ed. Site was not a stranger to a Nor.
walk audience. as she has been heard
here before with much pleasure. She
became very popular after her presen-
tation of the Sign of the Cross. Her
audience was with her from beginning
to end and at each climax the ap-
plause was widespread. #0 effective
was her work that during the sad por-
tions of the dialogue many tears were
shed. At other times the audience
would be convulsed with laughter. at
the wit oi the various characters.

The story of Shore Acres is so well
known that a recital of it is unneces-
sary. The elocutionist was especially
successful with her interpretations of
the conversations which ensued be
tween Uncle Nathaniel and Martin.
when it was proposed to cut Shore
Acres tip into building lots and when
the. preparations for the, eventful
Christmas dinner were going on. it re:
quired but very little imagination on
the part oi a hearer to think himself
in the Maine coast farm kitchen.

The ushers for the evening were Al-
len isockwood, Ernest. Mslkin and Ar-
thur Murray. while. Aurelius Heath
presided in the ticket offlcetind Conrad
Price at the door.

F. c. Schaub, Son of Jacob Schaub, on
Board the Missouri.

Fred C. Schaub. son of Mr. and Mrs.
Jacob Schaub. oi Washington street. is
reported as being among those injured
as the result of the explosion on board
the battleship Missouri. yesterday, de-
tails oi which appear in another part
oi The Sentinel.

Young Schaub enlisted in the navy
about two years ago; and had been
home on furloughs three or four times.
slime then. For some weeks past noth-
in had been heard from him. and Mr.
Sc sun had written to the navy depart-

] meat at. Washington two or three times

to ascertain whatyesselvhis son was
on. None of the letters were. ever an-
swered, and the flrst information Mr.
Schaub had oi Fred's whereabouts was
when he read in the New York papers.
this morning. that Mason was among
those injured. The account stated that
he would recover. -Mr. Scbaub sent
several telegrams to Washington today.
for more news regarding his son's con-
dition. ‘

Young Schaub was an apprentice of
the second class. He was food of wa-
ter, and liked the naval routine. He
will very likely be sent home on cleave
oi absence until such time si'he is
able. to resume his duties.

Clergyninn in Attendance.
Many finial lributos and
Appropriate Music

Men. women and children, rich and
poor. black and white. gathered at the
south Norwalk congregational Church.
yesterday. to attend the funeral servi-
ces oi the late Senntorfiohn H. Ferris.
and to pay the last tribute of love of
the community for the deceased. and
.isten to the eloquent words oi eulogy
pronounced over the remains oi'one
whose memory will remain green long
in South Nor-walk, The church was
crowded. people arriving long before
the time for the services to corn once.
The pulpit was covered with hail me
dorsl tributes to the deceased. and a
tine oil portrait oi Senator Ferris stood
inshrined in flowers nearby. .

The services Were opened by Rev.
Lewin F. Busll, with prayer. after
which a quartet comprising Mrs. C. F.
Boutwell, Mrs. Amy Wood-Sims. David
E. Disbrow and Chester H. Benedict
sang very beautifully. “The Home-
land." .

Rev. Gerald H. Beard. Ph. D.. oi Bur-
lington, Vt.. a former pastor and per.
sonal friend oi the late senator, doliv~
ered an eulogy which has been widely
commended as being very beautiful
and very true to the life and character
of the man whom the community so
honored and respected. Mr, Beard
said that the large audienc. met there.
not only to show their admiration and
love for the dead. but to show their
sympathy and regard for those who
have lost most and who were most inti-
mately connected with him. He said
that he spoke more as an old friend
and neighbor than as a clergyman.
"it seems strange not to see him com.
ing down the aisle stihe close oi a ser-
vice, intent upon doing some act of
kindness and consideration, or sitting
in his pew with his arm thrown caro-
lcirsly over the bad: 0! the t. in-
tently listening." He said t his
friends should not sorrow Is for a man
who has no hope. but. rather as for one
who has simply foundations": Jesus.
He would not attempt to to of his
character. as many of the; audience
knew him well. .He was ens oi that
sort of men who was able’ to be in go
many things for the good of his fol-
lows. Dr. Beard alluded touchlngly to
Senator Ferris' home living. and to his
deep Christianit)‘: his .hono where
purty. good fellowship and all that
makes life happy were to be found. Mr.
Ferris' home life was.vary1beautlful.
and when the shadow. oi-hts last ill-
ness was upon him. it was his comfort
that the wife and mother of his home
loved and trusted him.

Mr. Board said that peoploof the
professions were apt not to realise the
power and influence of a thoroughly
honest Christian business man. and
were rather apt to underestimate this
worth of such men. but the life of Sen-
ator Ferris showed how strong has
been his influence in this community.
and that we should be thankful that
such an ideal has been given to the
young men of the community. 'His

 

constant and unnerving integrity.
mad his life reach out beyond a nar-
row ircie. Next to his-home was his
love of the church. and we never can
tell how many timesthevchurcli has‘
come before his business; The work
he did for the church consisted not
alone in giving money. which he dill
so generously but in hispcrsdnal work
and the devotion of much of his time
and thought to it. as well ashis strong
personal influence in *vths.cburch were
all for .- Mr. Beardalso touched
upon his li e'as a legialntor. and re-
marked that the thingsrfor .which John
H. Ferris stood in church,‘town; c
or state have been right. ‘.

"i cannot begin to tell you the many
good acts which i know him to have
done. but. one conversation i had with
him will show. as laid cos day.
’There are three things that l have'aet
my heart upon. to see. the church free
from debt. to see the Soldiers' and 8di-
lors' monument completed. and to see
the Norwaik Hospitaljnisbed.‘ it was
a blessing that tbs-stirrer wishes of
his could hays been fulfilled before he
left us.” ‘,_7:. ' ‘ '

Hungarian lecture
‘0n Colonial History

Audience of About to. Hundred Poo-
plc Gathered in, Arlen Hall to
Hear Papay- Road.

The lecture on colonial history given
by the Norwallt Chapter to the Hun-
garians of South Norwalk. was well re-
ceived. last night. at Arlen Hall. by an
audience oi about two hundred.

The committee was unable to se-
cure a lecturer on this subject in the
Hungarian language so a translation
was made of an En‘lish lecture. writ-
ten by Mrs. George Wadsworth, of the
Buffalo Chapter, D. A. it, which has
been translated into several languages
for use in Builtlo. N. Y. The Hungar-
ian translation was made by John Ung-
vary. a former Norwallt boy. who now
lives in Dayton, Ohio.

The reading of the lecture was div-
ided between Julius Gancsy and John
Czako. and the audience gave close at-
tention to the speakers and also to (the
admirable' stereopttcon illustrations
shown by Remit. B. Carpenter. The
beauty of some-of the pictures aroused
a ripple of applause several times.
while two pictures of George Washing-
ton and one of the American flag were
enthusiastically greeted. it was quite
evident that our schools had prepared
the younger element to appreciate the
patriotic locum.

it would be hard to find a company
of fortycr any young-boys who would
listen ab quietly and intoresudly toan
English locttmr‘on United States his-
tory. as than young Hungarians llam-
cd to the lecture last night ~

Mr. Csako. acting as chairman, in-
troducedlha lecturer with a few words
of explanation of the neighborly ‘qirit
in which it was given by the Daughters
of the American Revolution. and at. the
close thanked the audience for their kt-
tention. and saidtbat other lectures
would probably be giventlatel'.‘ Some
of the audience. immediately asked-
“When?" .

The D. A. it. committee consisting
of Miss Angeline Scott. chairman; Mr'a.
Jessie 8. Gerard. and Mrs. Christian
Swarts were present, and they feel
that their work is meeting wth success.
