O I .

The third annual banquet of South
Norwalk Conclave. No. 418. improved
'Order'of Heptasopha, was htld last
evening at the Dorlon House. and it
was the unanimous opinion of every-
one present that it was the fluent event
ever given by this strong fraternal dr
ganizatlon. The committee of or range
menta was composed of Messrs. Wil-
fred Bodwoll, "Frank N. FerrLs and

 

 

Charles B. Gray, and they gave Land-
Lord John E. O'Sulllvan authority to
serve the best shore dinner he could.
and. it' is needless to say that it was
perfect in every way. both an to the
preparation by the experienced chef
and his h‘aistants, and the service by
the efficient corps of waiteriL‘ Two
tables in the large dining roo Were
occupied, and a handsonrely printed
menu card was at each plate, the con-

tents being as follows:

Chowder
‘ . Steamed Clams
Broiled Blue. Fislr Boiled Potatoes

Crab on Toast
Tomato and Lettuce Salad

Broiled Lobster French Fried Potatoes
Broiled Chicken on Toast ‘

Card on Cob Water-million

Coffee ‘

Every course was heartily pnioyed,
two hours being passed at the festive
.board.

Deacon William Miller then express
ed his pleasure at seeing so many

members present, and paid a deserved
- compliment to Mr. O'Bullivan on the
success cit had atte ed hb efforts
in again securing a li ca wrere he
could serve dinners to the people oi
Tire Norwalks and surrounding towns.
The hotel is large and up—to-date, and
surrounded by spacious grounds. The
dining room can accommodate coin-
fortably over orre‘hundred gue‘.sts and
the verandas are broad and Inviting.
A feature of the building is the cul-
inary department. the main equipment
being the cooking apparatus, which
consists of two large broilers and also
two ranges of the latest pattern. The
cold storage room is also another fea-
» ture, being large and well at pointed.
‘ and completely stocked with good
,1 things to eat and drink. A ell has
been dug on the grounds. and? a gaao
lene engine will force water to a huge
; tank to supply the premises with fine
‘- ‘ water.
At the conclusion of his remarks
,« Mr. Miller called on George C1 Marks
in member of Quinnipiac Council. of
New Haven. He told of the growth
“’and work of the order and compil-

SANIIEY, or rm:
A8. EVANGELIST, DEAD

Iisd Boon Blind for the Past
Five Years, Living on For-
Iuno Derived from ”Tours
WIlh'Moody

NEW YORK. August 15,—er l).
Sankey, knolvn as an evangelist
throughout the Christian world, died
last night «it his home in Brooklyn.
but the new; of his passing did not
become generally known until today.
Mr. Sankey was 08 years old, and for
the last five years had been blind and
suffered from a complictlion of dis-
eases brought on front overwork. Al-
most to the very lent he worked at his
writing, the gift of which had brought
him fame in every corner of the
earth.

His tours throughout this country
and Europe with Dwight L. Mood‘y.
the evangelist, brought him mm wide
prominence. Sarikey. it might be said
wrote the Gospel ilymrra of the World.
in China. Egypt, iudia, Japan. In at-
most evcry language known to man.
Sankey‘s hymns are sung. He receiv-
ed a large income from his publica-
tions, and had acquired a considerable
cstate.’ ills songs are said to have
had a circulation of more than fifty
million copies.

When Mr. Moody died in 1889, Mr.
Sankey felt keenly the loss of his
friend. From that time he tried to
conduct the Work alone, which they

 

 

~ had hitherto shared between them,

but the task Was too great. in 1902
his physical condition compelled trim
to give up most of his evangelical en-

gagements, although he continued for
1 sortie time to do editorial work in com-
piling a new series of hymn books.
Then came failing eyesight. which
speedily developed into total blind-
ness. With the blindness also came a
nervous breakdown.

After his retirement from public
life, the impression became general
throughout the country that he was
dead. He himself used to tell of an
argument he iriid with a man on a
train as to whether or not he was
dead.

brook at daybreak on \uspicion of be-
ing the Due who set tires in two barns
this week.

All yesterday a search was kept up
for the man whom Mrs. ilartlett had
seen going into her husband's barn
just before it was seen to be tn iiariioa.
At midnight Walter A. Wilcox was
notified that a man answering the dos-
cripiion of the one wanted had been
seen at a born In Westbrook. He sent
word to Constable Dawson A. Ayer,
who, with another man met Wilcox
and started out to follow the roads to
Westbrook—«me party being made up
to take the old road and the other to
go around Winthrop.

Constable Ayer‘s party reached the
barn at which ii suspect had been seen.
and went in with arms and pltchforks
and made what they thought was a
thorough search. even to forking the
bay. The man could not be found, and
so they continued along the road.

About 4 a. m.. upon returning to the
barn, ‘which had previously been
searched. the man was seen and
caught. lie was brought here at 7 a.
m. Later Mrs. ,llartleti. and a neighbor
identified him as the one soon at the

DROWNING MVSTERY.

 

 

 

 

No Trace Found of Owner of Clothes
Found Under Roton Point Pavilion.

ltoton Point‘s drowning mystery re
mains Just as deep as over. Abso
liitely no tidings have beep received
from the man who disapiearcd so
iiiysieriously Thursday trig} from a
point near the dunfing pavilion.

A number of people have examined
the clothing left behind by the man.
but no one has been able to identify
their owner from them.

That the wearer of them was in the
water there is no question but there
is a possibility that he swam away to
a safe spot and landed. fearing that
he would be "done up." As slated yes~
terday, he had been accused of reach
ing up through open spaces near the
dancing pavilion and grabbing girls
by the'ankle. but denied It. claiming
he. was under the pavilion preparing to
take a swim. At the point where he

ewnt into the water the bottom is very
rocky and most unsuitable for bathing
purposes.

The clothes the manleit had seen
long service and the trousers had been
patched. The man also had two cheap
necktles of the “alreadytii-d" variety.

 

DREDGING 'NORWALK HARBOR.

 

Work Has New Progrelsed as Far as
Mesker's Coal Yard.

The Norwalk Harbor is being rapid
ly dug out by two or three large dred
gas. The Ilrat one has gone as far as
Meeker's coal docks. and will come up
as far as the docks of the SE George
Pulp and Paper Company.

With the new channel there will be
no danger of large boats and barges
getting stuck in the mud, as has been
the case several times in the past.

The course of ther‘channel has also
been chahged from-the old‘~crooked

snake like channel to as straight‘a
one as possible. One ofitiie greatest
changes in this is just north of the
launch works, where the long turn
has been changed to a straight course.

The dre ges have struck several big

stones in t elr work. which have caus- -

ed no enthof trouble. Most of them.
however. have been raised and placed

in the, soovrs.

All the Circuits Burning at One Time

Some little trouble was experienced
last night with the new East. Norwalk

who saw the lights fall to come

whole trouble was in the power fur

minor trouble was also found at the

Is confidently expected that by tonight

NEW STATE BUILDING.

The. breaking of ground for the new
state library and supreme courhbulld
ing at the junction of Capitol avenue
and Lafayette street is an event which
is bound to interest the whole state.
The structure is designed to supply
needed housing facilities for the state's
business. it will relieve the congestion
of the state capital and will minister
to the public convenience and comfort.

Primarily the building is intended to
fill a definite need. incidentally it
will add to the architectural assets of
the state. The structure will be no
less ornamental than useful. it will
have a dignity. a solidity and a bean
ty that will appeal to the public and
that will reflect .in an enduring way.
the standards of the commonwealth.

When completed the building will
be a structure in which everybody will
take pride The property will belong
to the whole state. and the whole state
will have the benefit of it. The mon-
ey expended in this enlargement of the
facilities for conducting the public burr

 

profitable investment; Now that the
work of construction has begun It will
be steadily pushed forward .—Hartford

"We have not enough contractors In

plete this work. There is a dearth of
road building contractors. ! shall,
however, visit the towns, make a se-
