DEATHS.

Mary E Mossman, wife of DR..
E. J. Mossmau, the we'll known
physician and surgeon of this city,
died November 7. 1907, at 1890
A. M. Interment in Lone Oak
Cemetery, Friday. at 2:30 P. NJ,
Rev. Barth, of the Presbyterian
church, of whose church she was a
member, officiating.
The best medical skill was
sought-both at home and in other
oities-but all that could be done
was to only hold in check the fatal
malady. Being extremely sensi-
tive about her trouble. she hid it
from her most intimate friends and
sought the solitude of her own
home much of the time; going
from it only at intervals to visit
her most loved relatives, Mrs. Mary
Margaret Jones and family at
Charleston, w. Va, in whose home
she was made to forget, as far as
possible, her sfliotion; and her last
loving messages we're to them.
Mrs. Mossman bore the many years
of suffering with a patient and
christian fortitude seldom seen.
To the bereaved husband we ex.
tend our heartfelt sympathy.
Died, Nov. 9th, at mis- home in
New Haven, of Bright's disease,
Mr.. Jesse Lane, aged Is years, 8
months and IL days. He leaves a
wife and five sons, all of whom are
grown to manhood. The funeral
was held in the church of his faith
in New Haven, Saturday at 2
O'Clock, after which the burial took
place in the Odd Fellows cemetery

NATURE COMES ID SOLVE
 CRAWFORD TROUBLE
Cold Weather Threatens to Drive Late stayers from
 Short Beach.
SCHOOL BOARD WILL MAKE NO COMPROMISE
Local Chil-r9n Should Have Preference of Shore Res
 idents in Matter.

| There is a possibility that the strike of the residents of Short Beach against 1 sending their children to school at the Canoe Brook house may die natural death. Nature has come to the aid of | its worshipers at Branford and yester- day the cold wind sweeping along the shore reminded the people at Short Beach who are making the trouble that soon they must return to their homes in the city and that there would be no need of instruction of their children in the rural districts.
 It is this consideration that has led the board of education of Branford to close the school at Short Beach, ac- cording to the statement of member last night. The people stay at the Beach late, later in fact than. at most of the beaches along the Connecticut coast. but not long enough to pay the town of Branford to hire teacher for the Short Beach school. For this req son the town has always transported the children from the Beach to the Center school and now offer to follow the same policy in regard to the Canoe Brook school
 The board of education at Branford is uncompromislng. In reply to the ar- gument made by the people of Short Beach that the children have to walk five minutes to get from the trolley cars to the Canoe Brook school while the cars stop in front of the Center school, the sturdy residents of Bran ford say that their own children have to walk much farther generally to get to either of the schools and that up to the present time no material damage has been seen to arise from it. They claim that the accommodations at the Canoe Brook school amply repay the trouble of walking to it.
 The Short Beach residents say that discrimination was shown in singling out their children to be transferred from the, Center school to the Canoe Brook school, but the Branford board of education members say that they were chosen as the slightly longer ride on the trolley made no difference to the Short Beach children and that as they were practically transients and the Branford children permanent at tendants at the schools, it was deemed advisable to keep the Branford chil- dren altogether in the Center school.
 If they had to walk from the Center
 to the Canoe Brook school many oi
