Lassen, a, . twenty'four years. who was i ghifully injured in an, accident at orwslk hospital early last evening. During the time he was at the hoslll‘ tal Lassen never regained conscious- ness, and the only wonder is that he lived as long as he did. as his skull was crushed in. This details of the accident are fa- miliar now to most of the'sympathiz- in public of The Norwalks. Mr. Las- sen. George Crofut and Everett Bying- too, were engaged in loading express matter into scar of the 6218 “paper train." The train started and the last car struck one end of the truck and hurled it over‘ the railing to the side walk of Monroe street below. Mr. Lassen and Mr. Crofut landed under the truck and both sustained fractur- ed skulls. Crofut will probably re- cover, however, and Bylngton is able to be out and' around as usual. The accident to Mr. Lassen has on cited the warmest sympathy from all who‘ knew him. His wile, a daughter of John Brundage, Is quite sick at her father's home in Rowayton, and the sad news was only broken to her today, she believing that her husbs d was only suffering from a sprain ankle. He Is also survived by two children. Deceased was the son of Joseph Las- sen. lie was well liked among his friends. and was a popular member of Reliance Hook and Ladder Com- pany of Rowayton, The funeral will be held tomorrow from the Rowayton Baptist Church at 2:30 o'cloek p. m.

The investiga- tion of the affair. which has been ob tended by several sensational inci- dents, only served to throw more pub. Ilcliy on the conditions which have prevailed in that quarter. Finally Police Commissioner Mc- Adoo gave his personal attention to the Tenderloin, and after a tour of the district issued drastic orders to have the place "cleaned up." Last night was chosen as the time for a general movement and the commissioner's special squad was assigned to the task. It seems that. the order was anticipat- ed by the resort keepers, and others. however. for when Capt. Cottrcll, the commander of the Tendrioin station. started out on a crusade of his own an hour In advance of the commie sioner's officers. there was little to be done. Scores of places which usually are filled with men and women at. all hours had suspended business before midnight. Other places, although open. had no patronage. and the al- most deserted streets showed that something unusual was expected by the habitues. The few places which the Warning had not reached. or where it had been disregarded. wore pounced upon by the raiders and before morn- ing the cells at the Tenderloin sta- tion house were packed to the limit of their capacity. Bail Commissioners reaped a rich harvest from the cru- sade. Scores of women taken from the resorts contributed so each for the services of a commissioner rather than spend the night under restraint. Thcy expected to be. rcleaecd upon payment. of a sniaii fine when arraign- ed ln court today. How long today's condition In the Tenderloin will continue none of those most direcly Interested care to prophesy. Commissioner McAdoo has expressed himself as amazed that such conditions as hare been disclosed by the murder in “Toby's plans" could exist and has announced his determin- ation to correct. any of the evils to 'which his attention has been called.

Dlvlno's Ionian at South Non- waik Baptist Church Based on Then. The interest, and attendance upon the Lenten evangelistic services at the South Norwalk Baptist Church last night was evidence of the serious thoughtfulness of the church and con- gregation as they consider the facts and intent of the ushering Saviour. Mr. Divine's sermon was based up- on the scven utterances of Jesus from the Cross. He did not try so much to show the vital r ation of the Cross to human redomptn as he did the psychological- exhi ' titln of Christ in the hours of his do suffering. These utterances fall into ‘ hree groups. .The first three of these sayings show the greatness of Christ's self-forgetfulness for the sake of others. In spite ‘of His own physicalanguish He transforms His Cross into a count of intercession. “Father. forgive them for they know not what they do. His love for those ignorantly erring was overwhelming in tenderness and power. When he hears the first note of penitence from a guilty and dying malefactor. He in stant-ly transforms His Cross into a court of pardon and says “This day shalt thou be with Me iu Paradise.” A quick response nstulring him of the present possession of much more than had been naked. This is characteris- tic of Christ's attitude toward the needy.’ His eyes sent rested upon His broken hearted mother who was wit. nosing the world's gmtest . tragedy and for her and her future care He made provision by making Ills last Will and Testament. lie new John. the beloved. standing near and sold to His mother, "Woman, behold thy son." and looking upon John He said. “Be- hold thy mother." The tender. self- forgetful love of the suffering Christ finds no parallel. ‘ In the second. group We find Him ut- tering the deep cried"! of distress that come from ’abandonmoni. because of sin. "My God, my God. why hast. thou forsaken me?" has a deeper meaning than more human weakness overcome by pain. In that awful moment was not Christ experiencing the actual distress that comes to the soul of the sinner from whom God withdraws Himself and leaves him ut- terly to himself and sin with all Its torture? And if this momentary ox- pericuce of Christ was so terrible as lie was reaching to the very extremi- ty of human experience In falling ulau‘s place. what think you will be an eternity of such distress for the unre- pentu . sinner? His cry “i 'l'hirst." was the simples expression of His own physical need that should have arous- ed pity. but in Its place insult is of- fered and vinegar Is not to His_llps. In the darkness even that overhung Calvary it. was easy to see the contrast between Christ and the carnal nature of men. His last two sayings reveal His per- sonal consciousness of a triumphant and completed life. “It is finished" had a twofold meaning. He had not only accomplished the work of receipt» tion, but He had rounded out to the full His own life mission. He could die knowing that His Work was done. A broken column could not stand as the memorial emblem of His life. nly such a consciousness made it pose bio for Him to say,"li‘ather. Into thy hands 1 command my spirit." Grant was the work of the Cross and such was the One who went by way of the Cross to ills Throne. His salvation we proclaim. and Him ,we would have all men on- throne by personal faith. Easier Is to be a notable day in all its services. The Sons of Phillip will hold their usual early prayer crest ing.

Christiano started out from his home at 105 Harbor avenue, to go to his work In Noroton, where he was em. played as a bod carrier. The nearest way to the South Norwalk railroad station. from which it was his custom to take the train, was along the track and he was on the route when the fa- tal accident occurred. The switching train, in charge of Conductor William Craig, with Engin- eer Thompson in the cab of the loco- motive, came along. and Christiano. thinkink to save himself the trouble of walking made a jump for the wide step pt the rear end of the switcher. The unfortunate man slipped and In a twinkling he had gone under the wheels of the car following. The trainmen saw the victim's plight and the train was, quickly brought to, a standstill, but. not, before It had done its gruesome work. Christiano was extricated from his position and cared for as well as could be done before the arrival of Dr. William .I. Tracey. who was summoned. Dr. Tracey ai~ tended the man temporarily and had the ambulance take him to the hos- pltal. An examination of his Injuries show- ed that. his left thigh and leg had been crushed and mangled from the hip to the knee and just below the latter, the leg was nearly severed. The right. leg was broken below the body. in addi— tion to these injuries, Christiano‘s Abody showed many lacerations and his head and face were badly scratched up. Those wounds. however. were merely superficial and would not in themselves have caused death. The case is a particularly sad one. as Christiano is survived by n wid- ow. who is in a delicate condition. and three young children. Christiauo's friends speak very well of the man and greatly dcploro his untimely end. Christiano's wife was frantic with grief when she heard of the accident to her husband. and it is said that friends restrained her from throwing herself Into the harbor. The funeral of the dead man. was held at 2:30 o'clock this afternoon from St. Mary‘s Church. and burial was at St. Mary‘s Cemetery, MEN'B CHRISTIAN INQUIRY CLUB.

The end came almost unexpectedly. and the immediate cause was the breaking of an abscess which had formed In the right lung and which produced strangulation. Only a few minutes before. Dr. Ford. the family physician, had pre- , pared a bulletin from the sick room to the effect that if the patient did not have another sinking spell, such. as had come to him during the fore- noon, he would probably live the night out. When the physician left the sick chamber the senator was per- fectly conscious, appeared to have no pain, and had answered questions .‘ to him by those around him show as that his mind was clear. In the room at the time were Mrs. Flatt and the senator’s only son, Judge James P.
