HISTORICAL SOCIETY.

| Paper on Governor Trumbull Read Last Night.
 At the meeting of the New Haven Colony Historical society last night the principal
 paper was read by Jonathan Trumbull of Norwich, direct lineal descendant of Connectlcuts famous governor, Jonathan Trumbull. The paper dealt with the life and deeds of that famous man, revealing many numerous laudable traits of his char
 acter which are not matters of general knowledge. His many praiseworthy deeds
 were all recounted and the paper proved to be one of the most interesting of the | season. Judge Simeon b. Baldwin was the only one who offered any remarks and he said that Governor Trumbull was so near ly perfect and true that there was no room for discussion. A hearty vote of thanks was rendered the speaker of the evening.
 Judge Baldwin announced that the trus- tees of the Hopkins Grammar school had
 taken 1t upon themselves to catalogue all of the graduates and alumni of the school from the time of its inception and asked that all those present or. any others who had any data whatsoever concerning the old school favor the trustees by informing thom of such. The list of rectors from tho beginning up to the present time and alsd of the boards of trustees are now complete, but the matter of securing the names ol all pupils is a more difficult matter and can only be obtained by the help of those who have had ancestors, relatives or friends in attendance and have preserved any rec; ords of their attendance. Refreshments were served later and a general social time eniOyed

 The staging was simple, the grove before Dianas temple serving as seen cry for all five acts, There were no waits, and the costuming was most ef- fective.
 Miss Lange's impersonation of Iphise- nie deserved the enthusiastic applause she received. She was called before the curtain four times after the fourth act and rather oftener at the end of the play. Second honors were easily Herr Kierschner's.

NINE CARS OF TIN.


To Be Made Into Cans at the Kasaan Bay
 Company's Salmon Cannery
 Nine carloads of tin plate have been bought by the Kasaan Bay company and are now en route to Seattle from the American Tin Plate company's Mononga. hela mills, at Pittsburg. From Seattle this tin will be carried by the Pacific Coast conpany's steamers direct to the cannGly Wtarves at Easaan. The tin Is to 0e made into cans before the salmon season 0pens in June.
 The. company expects to pack 50,000 cases of salmon this year. each case containing four dozen cans They will have four brands, one of which will be the Yale brand covering only the choicest grade of selected red salmon.
 It may be of interest to note that 1t will take nearly twenty tons of solder to make and seal the two million cans required for this years pack. The company has bought two steamers to be used in connection with its business. The cost of the fishing seines and gill nets alone is about $7,0O0 These selp"s have to be of unusual size and strength, because as many as 15,0O0 or 20,7 900 salmon are frequently taken at one haul
 The product of the Kasaan cannery will be sold only to large jobbing houses in the east, and in carload lots. Ten carloads have already been placed.

 The swelling in my feet and ankles and the rheumatic pains subslded quickly, and during the past IS months l have enjoyed most excellent health and. although I have passed the 6Sth mile post l have never enjoyed life better
 Good health brings heaven to us here I know of many cases where wonderful cures of stomach and heart trouble have been made by simply throwing away coffee and using Postum."

Dorman what they thought of him. They swooped down upon him en masse last evening, taking along
 lots of choice eatables and gave MT. Dor man the happiest kind of a surprise. It is needless to say that a good time fol- lowed, for all who know MT. Dorman know that he is capital entertainer and most genial old gentleman. He. was assisted by his wife and daughter and by his son, the genial Harvey Dorman, who was for years Superintendent of Evergreen cemetery. When the happiness was at its height the visitors fshed out from concealment an elegant lance wood fishing pole, specially adapted for catching blaclfish, which is one of Mir. Dormans favorite sports This beautiful fish pole was then presented to MT. Dorman as a slight token of esteem. MT. Dorman was much pleased with the gift.

But before MT. Brewster. no one builder had set the standard. He was of the seventh en-
 eration in direct descent from Elder
 Brewster of the Mayhower, and was
 born in New Haven, June 8, 1S11 so
 that he was almost S5 years old His
 father had founded the business and
 originated the Brewster carriage, begin
 ming in New Haven in 1810 and opening
 in 1927 the large New York mart near
 where the stock exchange now stands.
 Thence it was removed to Canal street, and afterward by successive steps to

 twenty-seventh street, to Forty-second street on Fifth avenue, and finally to Broadway and Forty-ninth street, where the business onw stays, The late MT.
