OBITUARY NOTES.

Death OF Mrs. A. O. NJ. IIingman.
To the Editor Of the Journal and Courier:
ut was with deep regret and keen
sense of personal loss that the relatives
and friends Of Mrs. A. G. M. Kingman
learned OF her death at her home, 10
Livingston street. New Haven, after
brief Illness. in her eighty-fourth year.
Mrs. Kingman's life was one of prac-
teal godltness. of bright Christian SER
vice, and, latterly, of wonderfully brave
endurance. Those who stood nearest to
her bear witness to her sweetest of
temper, staunch loyalty as friend,
open hand. frank cordiality, clear in-
sight, resolute will. She has passed
from our sight, but never from our love
nor our memory. The empty place in
the home can only be filed by Him that
has made it empty. Every member Of
the Humphrey Street Congregational
church (of which Mrs. Kingman was a
member) who knew her must feel that
a loyal supporter and faithful mem
Der has gone to her reward A wider
circle will mourn the loss of philan-
thropic friend; far wider one, in the
unseen world, will rejoice to welcome
her in the Fathers house. where the
many mansions are"

latest offering opened it's return engage
ment at the Hyperion last night. There
will be a bargain matinee this after
noon and the. concluding performance
this evening. on the occasion Of it's
former visit to this city it received the
unstnted praise of all who witnessed it

an urgent demand for return date. THE
Wild Rose" was given last night by the
same superb and carefully selected
company which appeared here before,
and they met with q hearty reception
last night.
The piece Is without the semblance Of
a very strong plot, yet there is enough
to serve the purpose of introducing
many capable comedians to deliver
their funny wares. The songs are tune
full. catchy, and original and Just the
kind which linger in the mind and con-
stantly recur for weeks after the per-
Torrance. The chorus is one Of the best
of the season and they sing the several
numbers with a dash and finish. The
young ladies are petit and winsome and
their costumes quite elaborate.
In the cast are numbered several old
time favorites who have many warm
admirers in New Haven. among them
being Frank Deshon, who is funnier
than ever; Albert Hart, Francis Jones,
Addle Sharp, as the Wild Rose, and
Emma Carus. They last night fully sus-
tanned their previous enviable reputa-
lions and were GREETED with vociferous
applause.

musical comedy perfectly presented by
company of artists of rare ability
should avail themselves Of this opportu-
nifty to see THE Wild Rose"

BRITISH wARsHIPs DEFENDED.
Government Reply to an Attack in the
House of Commons.

House of Commons.
London, Feb. 20-When the debate on
the address in reply to the kings speech
at the opening of parliament was re-
stunned to-day in the house of commons
Sir William Allan. advanced radical,
who is largely interested in shipping,
moved an amendment to the address
expressing regret at the fact that the
speech made no reference to the ineffi-
cheney OF the British navy. He vehe-
mently attacked the admiralty's policy
in regard to marine engine boilers and
declared that all the ships fitted with
Belleville boilers were unreliable.
Mr.. Arnold Foster. secretary Of the
admiralty referring to the "extrava-
CANT statements" of Sir William, said
the admiralty had discontinued the use
of Belleville boilers, was now testing a
new type of cylindrical boilers and. fol-
lowing the lead os the United States,
had adopted the McLausee boiler. AS
to armament and armor the latest Brit
ish battleships, the New ZEALAND, and
the latest British cruiser. the Duke Of
Edinburgh. would be without parallel
in the world.
On the subject of submarine torpedo
boats, the secretary of the admiralty in
formed the house that as the result Of
experiments with the purchased sub
marine vessels. the British admiralty
had produced a submarine boat Of
wholly British design. which was a
great Improvement on the originals.
Sir William Allan then withdrew his
motion.

DEPENDENT CHILDREN
And Their Proper Care Considered at
Judiciary Committee Hearing.

And Their Proper Care Considered at
Judiciary Committee Hearing.
Hartford, Feb. 20.-The judiciary
committee of the general assembly
gave hearing to-day on the bill pro-
viding that dependent children under
the age of four years may bea-commit-
ted to county homes. The bill was IA
vored by Thomas Gotsel of Farming
ton. Secretary Kellogg Of the state
board of charities believed there should
be better means for caring for these
small charges, as almshouses offered
poor accommodations. Miss Mary Hall
of the state board of charities said it
would be a great hardship to counties
if additions had to be built to homes
to provide for these children. Judge
Pearne Of Middletown appeared in be-
half of the Middlesex county commits
sioners. He said the bill sought to
change the nature of the county homes
entirely, and he opposed it vigorously
Attorney General King opposed the
measure so long as it would add to the
expense of the state. If clause were
to be inserted placing the extra ex-
pense on the towns, he said. he would
not object.
