SURPRISING CASE
IN CONNEMARA PATCH
Aged Woman Becomes House
keeper for Fritz the Hermit,
and Likes the Position

Inere is always much to talk about
down in the "Connemara Patch" along
the borders of Phaien creek, in the
raVine north of Third and Commercial
streets Surprising things happen
nearly every day in this little Irish
colony. where the houses alone would
surprise the residents of more hum
drum neighborhoods-fr houses
with sheet iron roofs, houses as blue
as Monday morning, houses brilliantly
adorned with such notable statements
relative to tobacco that certain of the
red and yellow letters extend boldly
from the ground floor to the roof, and
tue entire phrase behind which the
FAMILY dwells quite obscures both win
dows and the door;
T Yesterday the surprising thing at
the Patch concerned Fritz the Hermit.
Fritz the Hermit had taken a house
keeper!
And the Hermit had lived alone In
the Patch for ten years. He had come
10 the Patch because, being a German
ne didn't know anybody there. as he
explained, and he didn't want to. He
had visited none Of his neighbors, he
had permitted none to visit him.
Had Regard for Women
His regard for the ladies was so re-
.sfrlcted that he had smoked his pipe
indoors on the hottest summer even
lngs, and had never ventured to sit
out By the creek and watch the ducks
until all the women round about had
gone to bed.
But when Secretary Hutchins, Of
the Relief society. learned the other
day that Mrs Eleanor Clark, aged
eighty-four. was starving to death"
In blue house at the Patch, he made
Inquiries, accidentally, of the Her
nit Old Fritz didn't know her; he
didn't know anybody, he was glad to
say. But she was a good neighbor;
she "never bothered him.
Mrs. Clark herself denied that she
was starving. She never kept much
food about the house in summer, she
admitted. She hadn't eaten much
lately because she didn't care to eat
No, she wasn't strong. When she felt
stronger she would go and buy ga lot
of food" She felt sure she could get
money from her son. He had ga
steady job on the railroad. and he was
very well, the Lord be praised" but
he hadn't been home for some weeks
Half ironically Mr.. Hutchins asked
old Fritz If he would look after Mrs
Clark until her son could be sum-
moned. The Hermit looked astonish-
ed. But after finishing half a pipe he
said abruptly. why not? A good
neighbor she was always"
Yesterday the son was found. He
didn't know his mother needed help,
he said He would get anything she
wanted.
The Hermit Protests
= But when this message was carried
to the Hermit he protested. He would
not let old Mrs Clark Oh hack tn her
blue cabin. God sent her, guess
he said. my house is real house
now, with haus frau. :. If she'll let
me. I'll take care of her. Better ask
her.
The haus frau answered, s"Well, 4
feel stronger here. I can cook some
times. 1 think I'd like to stay
Even the ducks seemed to quaek4 as
tonishment yesterday afternoon when
they beheld the Hermit smoking his
pipe as he sat at his cabin door be-
side a woman.

ADVENT CAMP GROUND.

So Many Decayed Trees in Dunham's
 Grove That it is Considered Unsafe,
 Meriden, Jan. S1.-The Connecticut Advent association decided, at a meet ing recently held in Plainville to discuss the question to continue holding camp meetings in Dunham's S Grove. The meeting was largely attended by mem bers from Southington, Meriden, Wall lingford, Plainville, Waterbury, New Britain and other towns of the state. Since the camp meeting held in the grove last August. it has not been con- sidered a safe place to reside, by seve- ral members of the association, on ac- count of the decayed condition of many of the trees. Three trees fell over dur ing the meeting last August and crushed in two tents. Should all the decayed trees be cut down, it was feared that the place would be left without much shade, which was not desired by some of the members. The matter was talked up among the mem bers recently and it was decnded to call a meeting to settle the matter.
 A committee of five was appointed to see that the grounds are made safe for dwellers, even if it is necessary to cut down all the trees. A majority of the members were not in favor of making change this year. There is no other place as conveniently located available at present, and the meetings have been held there for years.
 Oliver D. Woodruff, of this place, is president of the association.

MIR. sPERRY's TRIBUTE.

Never. a Suspicion of Wrong in General
 Kellogg's Career He Says.
 Congressman Sperry, who perhaps knew General Kellogg during his con gressional career better than any other man in congress, spoke of his dead friend yesterday as follows: T have known and loved General Kellogg for the past fifty years, and there never was an unkind word passed between us. We remained steadfast friends through all these years. esteemed General Kellogg most highly. There never was a suspicion of wrong during all his long life of public usefulness. He was a splendid orator and man of character. Connecticut lost one of her best men in the death of General Kellogg. He was an ornament to the city of Waterbury and one of it's most useful citizens. He lived long enough to see the city grow. into a place of importance, and above all to see it recognized by the national government in the erection of a public building, one of General Kellogg's high est ambitions. He was the father of the bill to erect this building when he was in congress way back in 1869, and from that time on he never tired in his en- deavors to push this matter through. Every year he used to come to Wash ington to watch the progress of his pet movement, and when it finally passed, General Kellogg was one of the happiest men in Connecticut. I am sorry he did not live long enough to see this monu- ment to his energy and perseverance finished. but the people of Waterbury recognized the work he did, I. am sure, and honor him for it. His memory will live long time in the hearts of his fel- low citizens''

But there were others-others who,
believing in Goldfeld' q future, remarked
to themselves as did the stout young
lady when she pulled on her stocking:
81 believe there is something in it,"
Among the few who believed and
stayed and worked, were A. ID. Myers
and Tom Murphy. They and partner,
after many discouragements, opened up
ledge on the Combination, IA feet
wide, which averaged $40 to $50 per ton
in gold. This was in midsummer, but
neither the blazing sun nor the gold in
sight prevented their partner from get

little music in it as that of the stubborn
but useful burro. Myers and Murphy
continued and the good team work of
these two soon opened up another ledge
10 feet further in the tunnel-which
was 8 feet wide and which averaged $3.50
per ton.
Then the second stampede took place.
Every horse and rig in Tonopah was
pressed into service, and many walked
twenty-five miles over the desert sands to
Goldtield. Few brought tents with them,
and at night, after weary day in the
hills, they spread their blankets on the
ground with the sky above for roof, and
to the music of the burro's bray and the
coyotes yelp, they lay down to sleep
and dream of the riches the morrow
would bring forth.

After one has written the story OF
Goldfi.ld a number Of times, it would
become monotOnOus to do so again
were it not that, like the old, old story
of love, it is ever new and ever interest
ing, both to the writer and the reader.
In preparing a resume of the camps
history for this issue the editor deems it
wise to tell of the early days by repro
ducing his article which appeared in
the August number of the Sunset
Magazine. Another object in repro
ducing this article is to show it's con-
servatism, both as to what were stated
to be facts and anything that savored OF
prophecy. The article follows:
When Harry Stimler and Will Marsh
failed to make their pile at Tonopah
they accepted their fate with eqrani-
nifty and refused to be discouraged.
They were young men, natives Of Ne
vada, and they had "hunch" that
some day they would discover a region
where mines would be opened greater
even than the famous Mizpah, with it's

and awaiting the completion of the rail-
road to Tonopah, which event will
doubtless take place before this article
appears in print.

strike created great excitement and the
price of stock in the company doubled
in day. The ledge il 40 feet wide,
and nearly the full width will pay hand
somely to mill.
Southeast of the Combination lies the
Florence, owned by I. &. Lockhart and
others. This property is being opened
up by lessees who are producing, in
good quantities, such rich ore that II
shotgun messenger accompanies each
shipment. Mr.. LGkhart is also the
principal owner Of the st. Ives, on
which rock has just been found which
is as plentifully sprinkled with visible
gold as is boys face with freckles.
Some of this ore is worth So to 81 per
pound and here again the armed guard
is necessary. Smith and kernick have
the extension of this ledge in their
Spearhead group, and the values are
little less sensational.
Near the town of Di:mondiield, four
miles northeast of the Continuation, are
several properties with excellent show
