ist. There isn't a bicyclist in Wor-
cester who does not know of it, and it
is claimed that It's waters have medi-
cinal properties
Mr.. Boynton often remarked that
the purity of the spring had prolonged
his life many years, and he seemed to
value the spring more than any other
part OF the property. The water is
clear and cool, and is situated in the
heart of miniature forest of tall
pines. A natural fountain is there for
the water to flow through, and many

spring to partake of their lunches be-
fore winding up the days pleasure.
There is about 100 acres in the prop
erty altogether, and it was given over
to Mayor Dodge as the legal repre-
sentative of the city of Worcester. Mr.
Boynton's original idea was to deed the
property to the town of Paxton.
but on the advice of several of his
friends among them Hon. Ledyard
Bill, who argued that the town of
Paxton would have no use for such
large and extensive park as the
farm would make. They suggested
that he deed it to the city of Worces-
ter, and the suggestion met with Mr.
Boynton's favor.
The estate is in such a condition that
it will serve the people of Worcester
for the same purposes as Bronx park
does the people of. New York, and is a
delightful monument to the generosity
of the dead philanthropist.
1t was decided to name the new
park after Mr.. Boynton and, although
he demurred his prejudices were over
ruled, and it was accordingly named
Boynton park. He selected as trustees

The deed in escrow, which was given
by Mr.. Boynton, was signed by his
wife, and the property now reverts to
the city of Worcester as its absolute
property.
Mr.. Boynton's body was taken in
charge by Sessions & Sons and was
prepared for burial. 1t will be kept in
Worcester until tomorrow afternoon.
when it will be taken to the Congre-
gational church in his native town.
Services will be conducted in the
church at / o'clock and the interment
will be in the village cemetery. Hon.
Ledyard Bill has charge of the funeral
arrangements.
1t is probable that the death of Mr..
Boynton will be officially reported at
the meeting of the common council
Monday evening, and some action TAX

and he could have left no better monu-
ment to his memory than the beautiful
park which goes a great ways towards
making up a most elaborate and ex-
tensive park system for a city of Wor-
cester's size.

C. D. BOYNTON DEAD.
An Honorable Life
Ended at St. Vim
cents Hospital.
BORN IN PAXTON IN 1872.
Boynton Park is a Monu-
ment to His Wide
Philanthropy.

Charles D. Boynton, the aged donor
of Boynton park, died yesterday morn
ing at ST. Vincents hospital on Provi-
dence street, from a severe attack of
kidney trouble with which he was ia
ken several days ago. He has been all
ing for some time, and it was not def
nitely known for several days what his
trouble was.
About a week ago he was taken to
the home of Mr.. Perry, in Leicester,
and while there, his condition became
so serious that it was decided to have
him removed to st. Vincents hospital.
The removal was made, in the sick am
bulance and for a time his case seemed
to show improvement at the hospital.
Saturday evening his condition
changed for the worse, and Monday af-
ternoon, he failed rapidly. His death
was expected at any moment. At mid
night, Monday his pulse was very weak
and he lived but few hours.
Charles D. Boynton was born in
Paxton, July %, 1872, and at the time
of his death was over 81 years old. He
was the son of Ezra Boynton and wife
of that town, and has lived in Paxton
nearly all his life. He was a. farmer
| by occupation, and, being a typical New
England tiller of the soil, accumulated
a considerable property about his
home, where he lived for 70 years.
Sept. Is, 1898, he presented the city
with 100 acres of land about his home
in Paxton, and the only condition asked
Of the city on the presentation was that
he be allowed lifelong residence on
the estate, and that the same, when ac-
quired by the city, would be used as a
public park, hospital, a sanitarium or
for any other charitable purpose that
the city government might see fit to
name.
The need of a park beyond the limits
of the growing city had long been ur-
gent, and Mr. Boynton's gift filled the
want very acceptably. The location
of the land was such that it could not
have been eXcelled had the park COM
missioners picked the place out them
selves, and from the time of it's ac-
quirement it has not cost the city one
cent
The morning after Mr.. Boynton made
his intention known, he presented the
deed for the property to Mayor Rufus
B. Dodge, Jr. and at the meeting of
the city council, Oct. 8, the property was
accepted. The vote of the council was
approved by Mayor Dodge, Oct. 7.
The estate is one of the most valu-
able pieces of property in the town of
Paxton. Its assessed valuation at the
time of it's requirement by the city was
$4,000, but 1t was known at the time
that Mr.. Boynton could have easily dis
posed of it for much more than that
amount.
For years back the park has been
well known by Worcester people. On
the property is situated the famous Sill
yer spring, which has been the mecca
of many and many a Sunday excursion

DEFENDANT TAKES STAN[

The third day of the Paddy Shea trial
draw the usual crowd Of spectators who
hacked the district court room during the
morning and afternoon sessions. Most OF
those who have been attractd to the court
room were there to hear what Shea would
saw in his own behalf, as it was rumored
that the state had gathered abundance
of new evidence that would be introduced
at the trial.
Shea. took the stand yesterday and one
of the most lengthy CONGRATULATIONS
ever entered into by attorneys in any case
tried in the Sedgwick county district court
was gone into. The attorneys were very
keen in their conceptions OF the techhI-
calities in the points of law raised in the
rigid cross-questioning of the Defendant
and many objections were made and the
decisions of Judge Dale were frequent ana
delivered with decision. In most OF them
an exception was taken by one side or the
other. The case is being very ably con-
Quoted by the attorneys on both SIDES ana
the outcome will be awaited with cohslo-
cradle interest. During the day the wo-
man Whaley, who figures very prominent
ly in the case, passed through most try
ing ordeal while on the witness stand, ana
her Hfes history was gone into in man
ner never before remembered in the his
tory of a criminal case ever tried IN the
district court.
Much of the testimony which was intro
duced in the previous trial was intro
duced in rebuttal by the attorneys for the
state. Officer Sutton was one of the wit
nesses called by the state. He identified
revolver introduced in evidence and was
asked about the conversation he had with
one John Herrig concerning the remarks
made by Dawson shortly before Dawson
went to Sheas place under the supposed
pretense of recovering his pocketbook'
which he claimed to have lost at shea
| place.
The case may be argued today, and If it
| is will go to the jury late this evening.

brate the Event,

On March 20, 1897 Wichita lodge, No. 20,
n. R. A, was organized with MEMBER
ship of fifteen. Its members were or the
best business men of the city and they
banded themselves together for fraternal
protection to their families. The lodge
met in the building on South Water street
which at that tim was many lines too
large for the membership, but at present
its membership has grown TO such an ex-
tent as to force them to look for new
and more commodious quarters. They
have leased and fitted up lodge room
over 233 and 235 North Main street at con-
siderable expense, but have tenants
enough already to occupy the room every
night in the week and on Sunday.
The lodge room is papered with blue in
grain paper on walls, with an eighteen
inch border to match, and the ceiling IN
combination. The moulding is rich cop
per which sets off the effect of the paper
ing. The room is lighted with one double
and two single gasoline lamps. each OF
which equal a ninety-candle light, and Is
beautiful in effect, with a bright white
light and the blue walls.

joyed by all and the manner in which the
lodge entertained the crowd was COM

The PAY Train" drew a large crowd 10
the Crawford Grand last night. The play
is a melodrama of the sensational order
and is a scenic production The robbery or
the pay train Is very exciting and thrilling.
1t has an interesting plot in which the
villain of course finally succumbs and all
ends happily. Some good specialties are in
troduced in the play, but one of the best
was necessarily cut last night owing TO the
illness of Miss Rossiter. Miss Rossiter is
a sweet singer and her rendition Of the
Broken Heart is something very good.
The ladies of the cast are very strong.
Mr.. Denton, as Judge did some clever
work, and Miss Maize Molyneaux, as Bird

soubrette, while Baby Wava is one Of the
cutest and brightest of children. While
some of the situations in the play might
