STILL HALE AND HEARTY.


Mr.. and Mrs Jay Peck Celebrate the
Fifty-Ninth Anniversary of Their
Marriage.
Mr.. and Mrs Jay Peck of 35 Whalley
avenue yesterday celebrated the fifty
ninth anniversary of their marriage.
Only their immediate family, consist
ing of four children and three grand
children, assisted in the celebration,
which was a quiet family reunion.
Mr.. and Mrs. Peck were married in
Monroe, Conn, September 80, 1888, by
the Rev, Cyrus Silliman, Baptist min
ister who has long ago gone to join the
silent majority, as has everyone who
witnessed the ceremony. Mrs. Pecks
age is seventy-seven.
Mr. Peek's life occupation was that
OF a painter, at which he was an eX-
pert. While working in Bridgeport for
the firm of Tonlinson, Wood & Co., Mr..
Peck striped the carriage Of Millard
Fillmore, who was then president OF the
United States, and also the carriage
which the merchants of Boston present
ed Daniel Webster. Mr.. Peck, who is
lightweight years old, Is one of the old
time, true blue, staunch republicans,
and in his younger days, especially In
the days before the war and during the
war, he was power at the ward prim-
aries. He is a good example of what
temperate living, exercise, good habits
and even temperament will do to bring
health and long days.
| MI Peck is still active, and on pleas
ant days usually takes stroll of sew
eral miles for enjoyment and exercise.
His mind is storehouse of the stir
ring events in the city and country In
the days of Presidents Lincoln and
Grant. Both he and his estimable wife
are still hale and hearty and bid fair
to live to celebrate their diamond jubi-

England railroad, was partially wreck
ed at 80 this morning three miles west
of Willimantic and between this city

but the rear section continued its speed
and overtaking the first, crashed into
it. Three cars were thrown from the
track and two of them were practically
wrecked. No one was injured.
A wrecker from Hartford cleared the
track so that traffic was resumed com

Bishop Thompson Honored.

Jackson, Miss, May 15.-Right Rev.
DR.. Hugh Miller Thompson, Protestant
Episcopal bishop of Mississippi, has been
invited by the archbishop of Canterbury
to preach the anniversary sermon for
the society for the propagation of the
gospel in foreign parts in st. Pauls
cathedral, London, on June 3d. This So
ciety is the oldest missionary organiza-
ton in the world, and had much to do
with the planting of Trinity church. New
York, 200 years. The sermon by Bishop
Thompson is part Of the program Of
the Lambeth conference and st. Angus
tine celebration, which extends over the
last few days Of June and nearly all the
month of July, and which will probably
bring together the largest number OF
bishops of the Anglican communion ever
assembled. Bishop Thompson has also
on the nomination Of the vice chancel-
lor been asked to preach the Whitsunday
sermon before the University of OK
ford on June 6. He has accepted both

DruaRed 20 Death,

Gustaf Carlstedt, the 13-year-old son of
John A. Carlstedt, living in Denver, near
the Argo smelters, met horrible death
recently by being dragged by n horse. The
boy was allowing the horse to feed on the
grass in q vacant lot at the rear OF his
homo and had tied the lariat around his
waist, presumably to save the trouble OF
holding 1t. The animal became frightened
and ran away with the boy. When the
animal stopped, the lad lay unconscious
and only lived n few minutes after.
It was just as the smeltcr hands were
Issuing from the big building OF the Argo
works that the terrible accident happened
and was witnessed by probably 20 persons.
The 19-year-old brother OF the boy, Axel
Carlsteit, claims to have seen the whole
affair, but was powerless 20 render his
brother any assistance before his fatal In
jurics were inflicted. Mountain
News.
The evening tribune. (Pawtucket, R.I.) 189?-190?, 1897-05-15
AS TO THE TARIFF.

The tariff debate Is, according to the lat
est advices from Senator Aldrich, to come
up on May "a before the Senate. Demo-
Gratis have expressed q desire to have the
debate put of few days longer in order to
give them more time to examine the bill
and compare it with the House measure.
The Senate committee thinks that time
enough has already been granted, and the
bill will come up for discussion on the
date mentioned, whether it is satisfactory
to all parties concerned or not. A delay of
few days, however, would have done the
promoters Of the bill no harm, and would
have given the opponents OF the measure
chance to look into each individual sched-
ule minutely and form careful estimate
as TO what changes, in their opinion,
shonld be made in the text of the bill.
The schedules, as a whole, arc as highly
protective as they could well be, even
under the guidance of high protective
administration. The president, 1t is true,
has had no hand in formulating the bill,
but his ideas are well-known and the
tariff plank on which he stands has been
closely regarded in both the draft of the
original bill and the amendments that
have been made by the Senate Committee.
There is no no hope of reducing the
measure to anything like reflex of the
Wilson bin, although the Senate will un-
| doubtedly be able to do some pruning
upon the schedules. The best that can be
hoped is that the measure will demon
strate the difference between the opposi-
| tion of the high tariff and the low.

USELESS STATUTES.

A few prominent business men in Provi-
dence have just signed and transmitted to
the Chief OF Police OF that city, petition
asking that the street cars and excursion
boats be stopped on the Sabbath day. 1t
is not to be thought for moment that
they are anxious to see such regulations
put In force, and 1t is apparent that their
motive is to give the public taste OF real
blue lawism. Nothing disgusts the apo
thetic so quick as TO get little OF the real
fruits OF their indifference and 1t Is judged
that the people who half think they would
like TO see blue sunday would be the first
10 become nsuseated with IT.
Certain very foolish laws are on the statute
books OF the State OF Rhode Island. Some
Of them are even unknown to the guar
