 | With the presentation of two colored
 ribbons appropriately marked, which colors were pinned to the flags of each of the visiting and local societies, the twenty-first annual meeting of the Con- necticut Turn-Bezirks came to close yesterday afternoon. The Funniest be- gan on Thursday night and has been 1 the most successful in every particular | yet held by the association. It was largely attended, and the interest man. l ifested in the var oIs contests, both ath- l letic and musical, was greater than at any previous fest.
 The prize singing contests took place yesterday morning in Turn hall and there were ten contestants. All of the selections given were exceptionally well rendered and it was difficult for the judges to determine which deserved the prize. After careful consideration the judges awarded the first prize, diplo- ma, to the New Haven Arions, who are the singing section of the New Haven Turn Verein. The Holyoke and Meri- den societies tied for second prize.
 In the afternoon all repaired to Schuetzen park, where several hours, until late in the evening, were spent in delightful manner. An excellent mu- sical programme was carried out in which selections were given by the sev eral societies and also by the combined number of singers.
 Late in the afternoon President Schenck. of the New Haven Turner's, addressed the gathering and thanked all for their participation and their efforts to make the fest a successful one. He said that the propitious weather throughout had much to do with the success of the gathering. He then pre- sented each of the societies with the colors above mentioned. Mrs Elizabeth Ullrichs. president of the ladies society of the New Haven Turn Verein, pinned the colors to the respective flags. These colors are mementos of the occasion and are presented each year. Several of the flags were covered with those re- ceived in years past.
