sengers on the Steinway were uninjur-

After she had gone through Hell» Gate
she encountered a heavy ebb title,
which became so strong that when the
steamer was passing the ferry slip at
‘ Astoria the tide turned her bow around
and sent the Marion into the starboard
bow of the Steinway. I
The lighter Ethelridgc, of the Wer-
ner Lighterage Company, was moored
on the port side of the Steinway. The
ferry boat was driven into the lighter
with such forceIthat the women's cab-
in was stove in above the water line.

struck the bulkhead such a powerful
blow that the water rushed into a big

fathers‘ Day supper {as said by the
members to be a record breaker, it be-
ing one of the largest and fittest meet
lngs held at the church for many
years. It was an enthusiastic social
gathering, and the addresses by the
three speakers were very strong and
inspiring.
The evening opened with a recep-
tion, those in the receiving line being
Dr and Mrs. Macfarland, DI William
E. Chancellor, Rec. Frederick Lynch,
Deacons Dickerman, Lane and Glen-
son. Supt. iv). H. Gumbart, of the Bible

o'clock, under the direction of the
committee of church work on the W0-
men's Association, Mrs. John B. Law-
rence, chairman, and a special com-
mittee of which Mrs. John H. Light
was chairman.
The invocation was by Rev. Freder-
ick Lynch, and after singing the D011-
ology by the entire company, led by
Mrs. MAKE McCausland at the piano.
a regular forefathers supper was
served. The waitresses consisted of
about fifty of the mairons and the
young women of the parish. all of
whom were in costumes representing
the days of the Puritans.
At the bead table, the ends of the
table were occupied by Mrs. Mat-fur-
Iand and Miss Mary Cunningham. both
of whom looked unusually attractive
in colonial costumes. The others at.
this table were Mr. Lynch, Mrs. J. M.
Coburn, Dr. Chancellor, .Di'. Macfar-

aheth l. 'l‘olles. Dr. George S. Kendall

After the supper had been disposed
of. Dr. Macfariand made the opening
address, and spoke especially of the
gratifying way in which the forces of
the church were getting together, say.
ing that this was the finest gathering
of those forces since he became pas-
tor oi’ the church.
Rev. Frederick Lynch, pastor of the
Pilgrim Congregation church.
York city, who is well known and pop-
ular among the people. a former class-
mate 01’ Dr. Macfarland's at Yale, then
gave a magnificent addresa on “What
Makes a Nation Truly Great.“ His ad-
dress was both instructIVc and elo-
quent, and was received with great an-
plause. He believed that. our great
moral idealism is what makes our own
nation a really great nation.
After. the singing of oiie‘ of the
hymns of the forefathers, Dr. Mscfar—
land, extended the warm welcome of
the parish to one of Its latest acquisi-
tions. Dr. William E. Chancellor, su-
perintendent of the South Norwalk
schools. Dr. Chancellor spoke of the
North and the South. and gave a com-
parison of their varied and contrasting
characteristics. Dr. Chancellor is a
son of both Virginia and Massachu-
setts. His address was that of the
scholar, and was exceeding unique and
illuminating with regard to present
day problems which face the nations-
The closing address of the evening
was by the pastor of the church, and
in it be brought together the thought
of Dr. Chancellor. the scholar, and Mr.
Lynch, the sear and prophet, showing
how the one had set before us our
great problems, while the other had
shown us how they were to be solved
by the forces of a great and glowing
idealism.
The gathering closed with the sing-
ing of “My Country ’Tis of Thee." Ali
present felt that it was the best yet
of the large and popular gatherings for
which this church is becoming so-Icon-
spicuous in the life of the city. _

Judge oi Probate Gregory Trying io
Solve the Myslcry
Judge Henry W. Gregory, of the
Norwalk Probate court, has the sol-
ving of a case which bids fair to re
quire Soloman- -like wisdom, and In the
balance hangs the fate of a 810. 000 es-
late.
About a year ago, Pciei-IVogel and
his wife. Minnie Vogpi, formerly of
Wilton avenue, were found dead in
Brooklyn, and indications were that
Vogel had shot his wife and then him-
self, and the Interesting point which
has since arisen is whether Mrs. Vogci‘
or her husband died first.
if Vogel was the first to cease
breathing, then the estate goes to M rs.
Vogol's aged mother and a sister in
Saxony. but if. on the. other hand, Mrs.
Vogel was the first to (lie. the estate

The case is complicated especially.
in view of the fact that the bodies of
Vogel and his wife were not discover-
ed until about twenty four hours after

examination showed that Mrs. Vogol
had been shot three times. One bul-
