Misplaced Pity.

He was real philanthropist. for he
gave his brains as we'll as his money,
and he did not advertise. Some years
ago he was showing some acquaint
ances-millionaires, like himself-oyer
school he had lately founded 1t was
the first manual training school in thu.
country, and as the captains Of indus
try went through carpentering classes
and sewing rooms and kitchen and
forge they were greatly impressed
Finally one of the visitors pointed TO
a boy in science class
There, see that boy yonder in the
second row next the window? clean
cut youngster and as neat as any of
them, but you can tell by the fact that
his hair hasn't been cut for three
months what struggle his folks must
be having. I'd like to give that boy
something, if you don't mind" he said,
turning to the founder of the school.
$50 he can have his hair CUT
But that gentleman explained that
he would look out for the boy, and aft
erward the visitors learned that the
boy who needed the hair cut was the
son of the founder Of the school Lip
pincott's.

WEST HARTFORD CAN
 HAVE WOMAN'S COLLEGE
Asked, However, to Put Up Money in
 Addition to Site.

Whether West Hartford gets the new Connecticut Woman's college or not seems more problematical now than several days ago, when indications seemed to point that the site commit tee had practically decided to locate the college in West Hartford, provided that town would furnish a site and would offer a substantial sum of money as well. According to members of the site committe at that time, they understood that West Hartford residents intended to take right hold of the matter and see what could be done about raising fund. It was even reported that special town meeting would be called to see if an appropriation could not be made.
 However, West Hartford resident who has been active in trying to get consideration for his town has told the Hartford Post that there was no like lihood whatever that West Hartford would put up money in addition to a site. He was sure there was no move ment on foot calling for a special town meeting, as had been suggested.
 If West Hartford's getting the col- lege depends on our raising a sum of money to go with the stie,' he said, then we shall decline with thanks" " According to this man, and he is in q position to know, there is absolutely no likelihood that West Hartford as Q town, or on the part of it's citizens, will offer any money above what it costs to procure siite."
 The city of New London has already appropriated $50,0O0. which goes to the college if site offered in New Lon- don is selected. It is known that members of the committee favor West Hartford, if a gift somewhere near equal that of New London can be se- cured along with the site.
 One of the members of the site com- mittee, when informed of the attitude of the West Hartford citizens, was very much surprised, as 1t has been SUD- posed by the committee that West Hartford had plans already under way for raising money, and said:
 'If that's the case I am afraid the college will go to that New London site"
 As the matter stands now West Hartford will not do thing, it seems, until the committee decides where the college is to be located. We are not going a head and buy a site and then have the college locate somewhere else" said West Hartford citizen the other day If the committee decides to locate the college here then we will go ahead and get the site.'
 A member of the site committee said that there was not particle of doubt but If West Hartford would put up a sum of money along with its site that the college would go there.

AUTO MADE QUICK
 RUN TO THE FIRE
Alarm from Box 1s Called Department to Summit Street for Exploded Lamp but Blaze Had Been Put Out.

At S.20 o'clock Saturday evening an alarm was sent in from box 19 for fire at the corner. of Summit and Mt. Pleasant streets in the old Ward house. It was the first bell alarm at which the automobile stationed in the central house was used and very quick response was made. The only other companies going to that box are Chemical No. ? and Chemical No. 3. The auto erached the house before the other companies, but their services were not required, as the fire had been practically extfnguished.
 A kerosene lamp in the tenement of J. Connors had exploded, but by smothering the blaze and using some water it was put out without the serv- ices of the firemen, and the recall was sounded as soon as the alarm had fin- ished striking. The house is owned by Richard Sullivan. There was lit- tie damage. The auto had been call ed out previously on telephone alarm.
 Chemical company No. was called to the Budnick store in West Main street early Saturday evening for a supposed fire, but it was found to be sparks from a chimney, a new fire having been started.

cANTATA AT TRINITY CHURCH. The Kingdom of Heaven Finely Sung
 by Choir-Pleasing Solo Work.

As an innovation in the Sunday eve ming service at the Trinity Episcopal church, a cantata, The Kingdom of Heaven, piece especially appropri- ate for the Advent ason, was rem dered in a pleasing manner by the church choir, under the direction of Miss Caroline H.. Thompson, organist and musical director. This followed the regular prayer service, which was conduo/ed by Rev. J. Eldred Brown, and lasted for about one hour.
 The eantata itself is a magnificent piece, with lofty conceptions. and was carried out in such a way as to show forth perfectly the grand thoughts contained in it's several parts. For their solo work, especial credit is due Miss Macel S. Clark, William Scott and Hugh Kinder. They were assist ed in the chorus parts by Miss Phoebe McNeely, Miss Marian R. Parkinson, sopranos; Miss Ruth Bee, Miss Alice Dat and Mrs. Ranger. altos: Walter M. Buckingham and Charles B. Lucas, passes.
