for Grand Army. Daughters
of the American Revolution
and Odd fellows
A large delegation of the members
of Norwalk Chapter, Daughters of
American Revolution, attended the ser-
vice held last night in the First Metho-
dist Episcopal Church. The decora-
tions were appropriate and the service
intensely, interesting. Thépastor, Rev.
W. W. 1‘. Duncan, preached on except
‘ tionally line sermon, taking his text
from Psalm 48:11 “bet Mount Zion re-
joice. let the daughters of Judah be
glad, because of thy judgments."
Mr, Duncan said in part: - ”The
church of God has always taken a deep
interest in the wars of men. it has
ever been engaged in the greatest of
all ccniilcts.—-the conflict between
right and wrong. Every war of the
world has been 'a part of this great
moral strife; hence the interest of the
church. If it be true that every war
is a crime on one side or the other. it
is equally true that every war repre-
sents virtue on either side, for resist-
ance of criminal aggression is certain-
ly the part of virtue. This Psalm celo.
brates a victory against such aggres-
sion. and Zion. the holiest part of the
holy city, is called upon to rejoice
while the daughters of Judah are glad.
Tonight history repeats itself. Zion
is glad as she welcomes to thesauc-
tuary those who represent a great tri-
umph of virtue aginst a criminal ag-
gression of more than a century and
a quarter ago. There is no more tit- r
ting place in which to greet the Daugh-
ters of the American Revolution than
the house of God. The multiplied
memories, the thrilling thoughts and
the exciting emotions that crowd in
upon us as we recall the great past
for which you stand demand a religi-
ous atmosphere for their expression
There was. scarcely anything revolu-
tionary that was not religious. The
history of the Colonies and the story
of religious life, are inseparahly inter.
woven. This religious life which per'
vaded the Revolution was its first great
glory. A Revolutiou is a serious and
a dangerous thing, and without a lofty
and pervasive religious life it becomes
a fatal'thiug. - 4
“The second great glory of the Re-
volution was the personablity of the
Revolutionists. As Daughters of the
American Revolution you keep con.
stantly before us the personal side of
this great historical movement. His~
tory is inferior to tradition in one re-
spect and that is that it is impersonal.
W hen the past was known only by the
son as he heard of it from the lips of
father. the ‘dead past" recived new
lift as it was read from the shining
page of the soul on which shone the
light are living eye. Now what the
lifeless page of history lacks. you sup-
ply, for you stand before us as direct
descendants of those who made the
history that we read. You thus sug-
gest to us the high service which un-
aided personality rendered in revolu-
tionary days. Institutions were few
and feeble. The multiplied substitutes
for personality which prevail today,
were not. known. There was nothing
with which to conquer save the uncon-
querable soul. The patriotism of the
day was that of personal devotion to
principles and these principles were
not incorporated into instituions, but
were part- of the rugged spirits of the
patriots themselves."
A special musical program was rend-
ered in connection with the service. the
selections, all of which were beauti-
fully sang. being, as follows:

Michael Celanlano, an employs of the

ing at 82 Water street. had a narrow
escape from death Saturday night. A
bullet crashed through the window of
the room in which he was sleeping,
passed within two or three inches of
his head. went through the front of his
house. and imbedtled itself in the side
or a factory across the street. The
police are investigating the case and
arrests will probably follow.
Celiano had retired early and was
sleeping soundly. when beheard a shot.
followed by breaking glass, the whiz of
a bullet and the crash of spilntering
wood. He aroae. lighted a lamp and
found that the bullet had passed
through the window within a few in-
ches of his head. This morning he not-
ified the police of the case. Captain
William Pennington and Chief Voll-
mer went to Celaniano‘s home and ex-
amined the bullet holes. They were
able to ascertain from the different
angle at which the bullet entered and
left the house that it must have been
fired from a boat in the harbor, pre—
sumably on the mud flats. They inves-
tigated still further and found the bul-
let. it proved to be of the .32 caliber
variety. ‘
investigation showed that at 2
o‘clock a merry party of men in John
Thompson's launch came up the bar-
bor and stuck on the mud flats. They
were unable to get away. The police
have the names of most of the mem-
bers of the party, and some arrests will
probably follow. ‘
After the launch stuck on the mud
some one in the party tried to attract
the sttenion of other launches by fir-
ing his revolver. and it is believed that
be tired the shot which came‘so near
to causing Ceiantano’s death.
The shots bad the desired result for
a party put off in the launch Sara K.
and rescued the shipwrecked mariners
from their muddy perch. ‘
Probably the facts will be submitted
to Prosecuting Attorney Tammany to-
today. and a warrant will be issued.
