 Miss Celia Butler, seventeen years of age, the daughter of Samuel Butler of 213 Con- gress avenue, tried to commit suicide Thurs. day night by taking a dose of laudanum. The girl, who is about to become a mother, thought death better than disgrace and so going to West bridge she drank the laudanum she had purchased and was lying unconscious near the bridge when she was discovered by Mrs. Hubbard of West Haven, who was driving over the bridge. Mrs. Hubbard reused the girl enough to make her get into her carriage and then took her to the Board of Associated Charities on Church street when Dr. White was summon ed and after seeing that she was out of dan ger had her sent home. She was arrested yesterday, however, and will probably be sent to the State Industrial school

We have come to dedicate portion of it as the final resting place of those who here gave their lives that the nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
 "But in larger sense we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here have consecrated it far above our power to add or de- tract. The world will little note nor long remember what we SAY here, but it can never forget what they DID here. It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they have thus far so nobly carried on. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us-that from these honored dead we take increased devo- tion to the cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion-that we here highly resolve that those dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation shall, under God, have new birth of freedom and that government of the people, by the people and

The memorial arch stands at the southern extremity of the bridge which spans Park river and is the direct entrance or driveway to Bushnell Park. It is thirty feet wide and springs from two massive round towers, one on either side. These towers are each sixty seven feet in circumference and rise to a height of over 130 feet, terminating in conf cal roofs, which increase the apparent height of the memorial and add considerably to the artistic effect by the variety they give to the sky line.
 About forty feet from the ground above
