LEGISLATURE ENDS.
FINE GIFTS FOR SPEAKER,

Governor Roberts CongratuIates the
 General Assembly o nGoOd Work
 Fun in the HOuse-Connecticut Legis-
 Iature Club Organized.
 Hartford, July 19.-With the disposi- ton of some tail end legislative busi- ness the general assembly of 1905, after the longest session ever held by a Con- necticut legislature, adjourned to-day sine die.
 During the session in the neighbor- hood or 300 public acts and 45 private and special laws were adopted, which is considerably in excess of the volume of legislation adopted at any session since that of 1895.
 Sore 1000 bills, resolutions and petit tions came before the general assembly for consideration apart from miscellan- eous resolutions pertaining to various appointments by the governor and the general assembly. Of these some 500 ca me before the senate and 400 before the house.
 Two bills, passed by both houses, were vetoed by Governor Roberts. One of them, affecting the board of pardons, was passed again by the senate, the veto notwithstanding. The house, how ever, sustained tke veto and the pro- posed law failed. The other bill, in- creasing the salaries of the judges of the supreme and superior courts, was passed by both houses over the gover- nors veto.
 In the respective houses the custom ary resolutions of thanks and esteem were passed in favor of the presiding officers, the ihaplains and the clerks. These officials were also presented with gifts: Lieutenant Governor Woodruff received a handsome diamond ring; Senate Chaplain Parker and Clerk Baldwin, gold watches; House Repub- lican Leader Kenealy, silver loving cup; House Chaplain Sheldon, a set of bronze andirons; Representative Con- nor, democratic leader of the house, a diamond ring, and Assistant House Clerk Durant, diamond cuff buttons. All the recipients responded.
 At the completion Of business in the two houses recesses were taken and then a joint convention for final ad- journment was held in the hall of rep- resentatives. Governor Roberts, his staff and the state officers, occupied

SWEPT OUT TO. SEA,
VERY NARROW ESCAPE OF TWO
 BOYS AND COOK

During a Fierce squa11 Off Madison
 Beach fin the Thunder Storm Yester-
 day AfternOon--Rescue at Last in
 the Nick of Time-New Jersey Boys
 Brave Work by Mir. and Mrs. Hurst
 in a Small Boat.
 A very narrow escape from watery grave was that of two boys from New Jersey and a colored cook out in Long Island sound off Madison beach, yester- day. Four New Jersey Y. M. c. A. boys had just arrived to join the boys camp at Tunxis Island. The colored cook at the island took boat and came ashore and conveyed two of the boys to the island and then returned to bring the other two over. As this was being done and when the boat was some distance from the shore fierce squall came on and blew the boat out to sea. During the desperate efforts of the cook to keep the boat headed for the island the rowlocks broke and padding had to be resorted to which was almost use less In the heavy sea. The great peril of the occupants of the boat was seen by people on shore and MT. and Mrs, Hurst, cottagers at the \beach, went out in a small boat to the rescue. They had gone but a short distance when the storm began to subside, giving hope of a successful rescue, but at this point it was seen that the boat in which were the cook and the boys had swamped and that all three were struggling in the waves MT. and Mrs. Hurst succeeded in picking up one of the boys. The other boy and the colored cook, who could not swim, were hanging on to the boat for dear life. Just then big dory came upon the scene, and the cook and the remaining boy were rescued. They were in a much exhausted condition, and but for the immediate aid must soon have perished, as the seas were running high The dory came out from Tunxis island to the rescue and when it took off the cook and the boy they were three-quarters of a mile from land

FISHERMEN COMPLAIN.
Sport and Business Injured by Naval
Target Practice

Protests have been made to the Navy De-
partment against the continuance of the use
of the waters south of Martha's Vineyard
by vessels of the navy for target practice.
These protests are based on the ground that
the firing of naval guns at that place is a
serious injury to the fishing industry of
lower New England. Not only do the pro-
aessional fishermen complain against the
lists who visit those waters to fish for sport.
1t is represented that the target practice
has driven the fish from their usual runs.
and to that extent interferes with the in
dustrieS of the Inhabitants of the neighbor-
hood
Many numerously signed petitions have
been received at the department. They rep
resent that the firing of the guns frightenS
away the schools of mackerel, bluefish cod
fish and other fish and turns them offshore
thus interfering with the occupat ton of the
petitioners, depriving them of making their
usual catches and causing serious depriva-
ton and hardShips among the fishermen of
Massachusetts. Rhode Island Nantucket.
Vineyard Sound, BuZzard's Bay, Block Is
land. etc.
The Navy Department is giving careful
and thorough consideration to the matter.
1t is stated that this particular neighbor-
hood is specially adapted to the purposes Of
target practice and that there is no other
place along the New England coast that will
answer the purposes. 1t is necessary to have
shallow water in order to anchor the tar
gets and remove them to places of safety,
and 1t Is also necessary that the practice
shall be within a convenient distance of
some port where necessary, supplies can be
readily obtained. 1t is candidly admitted
that the department will be seriously em-
practice If ii is obliged to give up the pres
ent grounds near Marthas Vineyard

DOUGLASS DAY.
Celebration at M Street High School
Yesterday Afternoon.

Douglass day" was celebrated yesterday
afternoon at the NJ Street High School,
when the life and public services of Fred
erick Douglass were fittingly commemorated.
This day in the local colored public schools
is made to some extent an occasion for in
cuIcatng in the minds of the pupils the
lessons of patriotism and good citizenship
The speakers were Rev. Walter H.
Brooks and Rev. Edward Everett Hale
chaplain of the United States Senate Mr..
Brooks dwelt upon Douglass early struggles
to secure a good education, his devotion to
the cause of human freedom and his fidelity
in the public offices with which he was
honored.
"Reminiscences of Douglass early efforts
and his early triumpbs were given by DR..
Hale, who compared him with Lincoln and
Washington in his devotion to his country s
welfare. This spirit of patriotism and self
sacrifice was highly commended by the
venerable chaplain of the Senate. In an
eloquent peroration DR.. Hale urged his
hearers to profit by the example set by
Douglass.
Under the direction of Miss Harriet F..
Gibbs the pupils sang number of patriotic
songs.
The Wormley School held exercises COM
mernorative of Douglass birthday Monday.
Rev B. I. Perkins, pastor of Mount Zion
NJ E. Church, West Washington, presided
and delivered an address on Character"

POURING IN FROM RUSSIA.
Commissioner General Sargent Reports
a Tremendous Immigration.

Commissioner General Sargent of the
bureau of immigration returned from New
York today, having made an inspection of
the Ellis Island station of the immigration
bureau He said that the tremendous influx
of Russians had by no means abated and
that from present indications it appeared
that this years immigration from that
country would be far in excess of any pre-
ceding period in the history of the service.
There were nearly 1,09o00e of these immi-
grants admitted to the United States last
year. and the significance of the prophecy
of Mr.. Sargent may be gathered from a
study of those figures.
1t has long been his desire and wish that
Congress might enact such legislation as
would save the country from this tidal
wave of generally undesirable immigrant ton
and his efforts have been by no means les
sened by personal contact with the deluge
as it comes into the ports Of the country.

Had not neighbor gone to the woman S

""You ought to- be ashamed of yourself to

would?" .4

An Old Hoax Recalled.
tor al The Evening Star:

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
The notice in The Star Tuesday of the
death of DR.. Frank Cowan, the Green's
burg (Pa.) philosopher" recalls the re-
markable story published In the Evening
Union a Washington paper July and Is.
1867 of the discovery near the Great Falls
of the Potomac of an Icelandic woman bur-
led in A ID. 1861. together with trinkets
coins etc. and runic inscription. This
announcement created a great sensation in
scientific circles and the account was pub
lisfed in all parts of the world and firmly
believed by many to be true and authentic.
This hoax one of the most successful on
record, was the work of Edgar Cowan, son
OF Senator Cowan of Pennsylvania. who
was studying natural history at the time
in the Smithsonian Institution and was only
twenty-three years old.
