FLOWERS BROUGHT HERE
 FROM THE QUAIL TRAP
Regularly Placed on Rawson Lot in
 Yantic Cemetery.

The woodstock Gazette of June 3 says:
 Shower bouquets of native wild flowers are regularly carried down to the large family lot in the Yantic cemetery in Norwich by C. L. Raw son of the Quail Trap. In April he carries arbutus, in May orchids. in June a sheaf or pillow of painted la dies-calied election flower in Wood stock-and in July. August and Sop tember many water lilies. The first memorial offering was placed in Yan- tic cemetery at an early hour Satur- day morning by Mir. Rawson. It was made up of 100 orchids with a fringe of clintonia borealis, gathered in the English neighborhood. The lemon coiored spikes and orchid like leaves suburbs of Norwich. which is about forty miles south of its local habitat.

DR. KAUFMAN'S PAPER
 BEFORE MINISTERS' MEETING
Sidney Lanier, Poet Laureate of the
 South, His Topic.

The paper presented by Rev Dr. M- s. Kaufman at the Norwich District Ministerial association meeting, held in North Grosvenordale Monday and Tuesday. had previously been publish ed in the Methodist Review which is the leading literary periodical of Meth odisln. His subject was Sidney Lam fer, Poet Laureate of the South. The reading of it required forty-five min uteS. A brief abstract is here given.
 The only absolute greatness is the greatness of. personality. All else is relative. Things are insignificant com pared with persons Men are more majestic than mountains They are grander than oceans. sublimer than starry heavens. Then the richest find in this age of marvellous discoveries is the finding of a mana man with vision so clear that he sees the divine purpose in his creation and with mo- tive so pure that he bends all his be- ing to the realization of that high pur- pose. Such a man was Sidney Lanier. We have titled him poet laureate of the south, in the settled conviction that both literary criticism and pop ular favor are, with strengthening ten dency, inclined to crown him with this honor His most conspicuous rival is Edgar Allen Poe. The genius of that strange man is richer and more in- tense than Lanier's.l But next to poetic passion, sanity is the poets finest en- dowment. In this Poe is almost a pau per- while LanieD is a prince. Then, also. personal character counts for much in an author. Here the contrast is very marked Pure passion and TO- bust sanity are so blended with Lan- ier's refined and elevated spirit that his artistic productions are the nat ural manifestations of the man.
 His song was only living aloud.
 His work a singing with his hand"
 He first saw the light in Macon. Ga. February 3, 1S42. and passed to his reward September z, 1881. In that short life he achieved an immortal place among American literary celebri- ties.
 That which captiYates us in Sidney Lanier is his unflinching fidelity to worthy ideals. These he will follow, no matter through what pain and sor- mist of the most approved type, hay ing an unconQuerable faith in the best things and in the ultimate triunNDh of the best persons. A refined, cultured, sensitive, harp-like nature responding musicalIy to every breeze of truth goodness. beauty and love. MT. Lan- ier's spirit was delicate and rich as that of noblest woman But alongside with this delicate and sensitive Qual- ity. we find that sturdy. stalwart, chiv- alric element of manly hardihood.
 As a sound and wholesome teacher of universal truths, a peer. with strong clear vision of permanent principles in their true relations, a poet with splendid imagination warm. pure pas sion and noble sanity, and. higher than all. manly man, heroic in purpose, unimpeachable in motive. above sus- picion in practice. symmetrical in an honor to the south, but is one of the rarest treasures of the highest form of American wealth.

The Charities Question Unsettled Brought Out Mems League Meetine-Prison Life Dis
 cussed by Warden Garvin of State Prison.

Invited by the Mems league of the Central Baptist church to meet to hear Warden Albert Garvin of the Connecti- cut state prison at Wethersfield, an audience of about 150 men was pres ent on Tuesday evening in Bushnell chapel including representatives from the mems organizations of the other city churches, enjoying an interesting talk on prison matters from the war den.
 President Gilbert S. Raymond of the Central Baptist Mems league ex- pressed the opening welcome and then Rev. MT Wright made reference to the citizens commiteee which some time ago had taken up the matter of in- veStigati ton of the admins tration of charity in Norwich and he suggested that a statement from them might be given at this meetin, instead of calling a gathering especially to hear their re- port. He called upon B. P. Bishop and Rev. c. A. Northfop. the two other members of the committee, to make reports.
 Mir. Bishop spoke first, telling of meetings of the committee and also of a conference with the civic committee of the board of trade and of confer ences with the selectmen. He said that it seemed they could not do mush in the way of cooperation between the Se- lectmen and the United Workers.
 Rev. Mir. Northror followed him and made it quite evident that he felt that the whole thing was being shut up and choked off and he wished to en- ter his protest against it. The se- lectmen had at first expressed them selves as favoring the commission idea and they had accepted some of his help in Investigating cases, but nothing had been heard from them since. and they are not availing them selves of the help offered. It seems that somebody doesn't want a saving to be made. He said he was not look ing for job for himself in this mat ter, as had been suggested by some people. It seemed impossible to get a meeting of the selectmen to get the matter discussed
 John H. Barnes spoke briefly, say ing that a petition signed by 150 vot- CTS would make the selectmen sit up and take notice, and he moved that such a petition be drawn.
 This motion was later withdrawn aft

CT Rev. M. Wright had spoken. depre- eating the turn that the matter had a much larger question than the se- lectmen.
 Warden Garvin Heard. At the request of President Ray mond Rev. MT Wright then intro duced Warden Garvi1l. who spoke for a little over half an hour, showing in detail much of how prisons had inn proved in the last century, giving the daily programme of Connecticut pris- on life and speaking of the uses made of the library by the men confined at Wethersfeld. As the chief causes of downfall he mentioned idleness, ig- norance, greed, selhshness. immortality. whiskey, and trying to get something for nothing. The better educated man is, the better prisoner he is. said the warden, drawing laugh when he remarked that it might be said that a college education is the most valua- ble preparation for prison life.
 In answer to some questions at the close of the address, he praised the Connecticut Prisoners Aid association that it was rarely he spoke to an au- dience without seeing one of his ''boys" before him, and he thought he recog- nized one there tonight. This proved to be the case, as a man in the audi ence stood up and acknowledged that he had at one time been in Wethers- field.
 The regularity of life food, sleep and fair treatment in prison life. said Warden Garvin, are sure to result in bettered health, even without the sum- shine and freedom of outdoor life.
 His address received a hearty rising vote of thanks.
 After the address a social hour was enjoyed. at which a special committee of the ladies of the church served re- treatments under direction of Mrs. Eva w. Caulkins. Lemonade was served by Mrs. Reuben P. Potter and Mrs. Joseph S. Adams. coffee was poured by Mrs. F. S. Purvis. Mrs H. J. Adams. Mrs. Charles Fox and Miss Fannie Arnold, Mrs. c. Henry Smith, Miss Maria Briggs and Mrs. Louise Taylor. The decorations. in laurel and wild iris. were by Mrs. Caullins and Mrs. Fox.
