OBITUARY NOTES.
Henry R. c Knecht.

The funeral of Henry Robert Charles Knecht, only son of MT. and Mrs. Hugo Knecht, who died Friday evening as the result of an attack of appendicitis, was held yesterday afternoon. Prayers were said at the house, 15S Humphrey street, by Rev. George Heczko, pastor of the Humphrey street German Luth- eran church. The house was filled with sorrowing relatives and a host of the little boys friends. The floral offerings were noticeable for their profuseness, the room in which the casket lay being banked with these memorials of friends. All kinds of flowers were included in the selections, which were beautiful tribute to the boys love of flowers. Among the larger pieces were a pillow. with the name 'Hennie'' from the father and mother, and large wreath on a stand, with streamers of white ribbon, with the wordr Playmate" in letters of gold, from a number of little l playmates of the deceased.
 ] Following the service at the home there was touching service at the Humphrey street Lutheran church. When the funeral procession drew up the members of the church Sunday school, of which the deceased was a member, were drawn up by the side of the church walk, where they stood as the casket was carried in. Then they
 went into the church and one of the hymns of the service was sung by the
 children alone. At the close of the ser- vice the children all marched by the casket to take their last look at their little schoolmate.
 | The interment was in Evergreen cem- etery The pallbearers were Charles Spirrel, Charles Nagel, Frank Cahill and Clarence S. Hut.
 Henry Knecht was eight years and seven months old and was an unusually bright little fellow. He was to have entered room 4 ir the Lowell school when the school year opened in Sep- tember. He was i'll but short time. He leaves a father and mother, who have the sincere sympathy of a large
 circle of friends in their heavy bereave- ment.

OLDEST VETERAN OF 15TH c. V.

Leonard Gillette is Ninety-four and
 Made Shoes for Mrs. Abe Lincoln.
 William Ellis, of No. 19 Greene street, declares that Doctor Potter, who was thought to be the oldest living member of the Fifteenth regiment, Connecticut volunteers, which is to hold reunion at Savin Rock August 9, is far from enjoying the distinction, and that the honor belongs to Leonard Gillette, Of this city, who is ninety-four years old, having been born at East Hartford April s, 1911. Gillette has been at the Soldiers Home at Noroton for the last four years, but still possesses all his l faculties practically unimpaired and a 1 remarkable sprightlineSs. MT. Ellis says that his father, the late David FL lis, and Gillette were both in Company ] E of the Fifteenth. An effort will be made to have Gillette attend the com | ing reunion of his regiment, and if it is 1 successful the old worrior doubtless will be the most interesting figure on l that occasion.
 | l of all the surviving veterans of the civil war, Gillette can put in a positive claim to distinction as the shoemaker who fashioned a pair of shoes in which Mrs Abraham Lincoln danced while she was the mistress of the White | House. For many years before the outbreak of the war Gillette had fol- lowed the shoemaking trade, and he
 was an adept at the cobbler's bench In the army he was so useful to his comrades in mending their footwear that his fame in this respect soon reached Washington, and he was asked to make a pair of pumps for Mrs. Lin coin. It is said that while re was
 making the shoes for the Presidents wife he wore silk handkerchiefs on his hands in order not to soil or mark the
 shoes in the slightest way. For tht work President Lincoln paid him forty dollars.
 With the exception of a few weeks 1 Gillette served continuously throughout the war. The roar ofsthe guns at Fort
 Sumter hardly had died away when ht
 enlisted in the Seventh regiment, Con-
 necticut volunteers, with which ht served three years. He re-enlisted 1T the Fifteenth, and was member oi
 Company E until mustered out after
 Lees surrender. His wife died soor
 after the war. and for twenty-sever
 years Gillette kept bachelors hall ir
 this city and worked at his trade, being
 a highly valued employe of the vel
 known State street house of Joyce ant Company.
 Gillette, from youth an omnivorou:
 reader, spends a large part of the time in his favorite pursuit.

TIN WHISTLE IN THROAT.
Peculiar Discovery by Waterbury Phy-
 sicians.

Peculiar Discovery by Waterbury Phy-
 sicians.
 As a result of an X-ray photograph taken Wednesday, says the Waterbury American, by Drs. Graves and Andes son of the tin whistle which little two- year-old Helen Meeser, of Phoenix ave- nue, swallowed on June IS, it developes that the whistle never was in the child's stomach, but has remained in her throat all these days. Dr. Graves has succeeded already in forcing the whistle two inches further toward the stomach, and believes that if he gets it there finally nature will take care of it. Should there be difficulty about this an operation will be performed. The girl is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles W. Messer.
 Up to recent days the belief preva lent in the Messer household and among the friends of the unfortunate little one was that the tin whistle was in the child's stomach. To-day's work by the physicians removes all doubt as to it's location. The doctors hope to re- lieve the child of her burden in a com paratively short time.
 Helen was sitting on the doorsteps watching the children play near hel home when A. Anderson, fifteen, son o1 Adolph Anderson, who lives in the sec. ond tenement of the house, threw small wads of paper at the Messerchild to at. tract her attention. Then he pulled the small whistle out of his pocket an6 dropped it near the baby. She saw the bright metal, quickly picked it up anG swallowed it. Suddenly she turned black in the face and was choking The young girls who were playing near by screamed in fright. Mrs. .Messer hur. ried to the steps. She pushed her fin. ger down the child's throat and proba bly pushed it into a more comfortable position, for the agonized look on tht child's face disappeared. It was thought, of course, that the whistle went into the childs stomach.

BABY'S INSTINCT, Shows He Knew What Food to Stick To,

Forwarding a photo of a splendidly handsome and healthy young boy: a happy mother writes from an Ohio town:
 ''The enclosed picture shows my four year old Grape-Nuts boy.
 Since he was two years old he has eaten nothing but Grape-Nuts. He de- mands and gets this food three times a day. This may seem rather unusual, but he does not care for anything else after he has eaten his Grape-Nuts, which he uses with milk or cream, and then he is through with his meal. Even on Thanksgiving day he refused tur- key and all the good things that make up that great dinner and ate his dish of Grape-Nuts and cream with the best results and none of the evils that the other foolish members of the family experienced
 "He is never sick, has beautiful complexion, and is considered very handsome boy. May the Postum com pany prosper and long continue to fur nish their wholesome food!" Name given by Postum company, Battle Creek. Mich.
