NORWICH MOTORCYCLE CLUB
 DISCUSSES QUARTERS
But No Decision Was Reached and New Rooms Committee Was Ap- pointed-FiVe New Members.

The Norwich Motorcycle club held 2
 lengthy session on Friday evening at
 L. s. Manchester's on Franklin street,
 the 15 members present going into a
 while other matters in regard to get
 ting the organization onto a working
 basis were touched upon.
 Temporary President Joseph Des-
 mond called the meeting to order tt 8.15 o'clock and when adjournment
 was taken about two hours and a
 quarter later the motorcycIists had d clearer idea of what to do and how Co do it.
 The report of the committee on quarters chosen at the last meeting was given each of the five men1b
 being heard. The committee had wis tied three places, the Cook, Chapman and Oat buildings and four rooms, two in the second building. had been
 inspected. Each location presented ad-
 vantages and disadvantages that pro- } V1ded an abundance of material for discussion. The majority seemed to favor the Chapman building. but no decision could be reached, and on mo- ton of H. F. Holden the old commit tee was discharged and another com mlttee of five members was appointed q to continue the search for quarters and report at the next meeting next Fri day night at c. V. Pendleton's on Broadway. The members Of the new committee are W. c. Bode IT, chair man. F. R. Wilson, secretary, Mauri te F. Sherman, G. A Desiardins and P. Joseph Desmond.
 The meeting instructed Captain Pen dleton or his ieutenants to take up the matter of holding a motorcycle meet under the club auspices on Labor day at the county fair grounds Pres ent indications would seem to show that an excellent programme could be
 arranged if the fair people are agree able.
 The choice of a second lieutenant to assist Captain Pendleton and First Lieutenant Manchester in their duties Of arranging meets, runs etc. aroused good natured rivalry among the mem hers, and not until after half a dozen ballots was Edward Adams chosen for the position.
 It was voted to have each member of the club presented with a con- of the F. A. M. bylaws.
 The membership of the club was in creased by five new names at the rolled to date 36. They are as follows F. R: Wilson. c. V. Pendleton. Jr.. c c. simpson Jr.. John P Post. F. w Lowell. M. F.

HIkERS RETURNED.
Y. M. c. A. Boys Had Fine Trip to
 Gardner Lake-Now Planning Others.

Assistant Secretary J. H. Ely and the party of ten Y M. c. A. boys, who hiked out to Gardner Lake on Thurs day and stayed over night, were back here about Friday noon While at the lake their programme included swim ming, dinner with the Camp Central boys, supper which they cooked them selves. and a moonlight swim. Every minute of the time was thoroughly en- joyed.
 Their travelling time on the road was about three hours each way. Thurs day afternoon two other boys drove out to join them and then carried the blankets home for them on the return trip.
 Former General Secretary Frank H. Merrill, who is in camp at Groton Long Point. has extended an invitation to Mir. Ely to bring a party of boys down there on a walk, and it is probable that the invitation may be accepted if the right arrangements can be made. The boys would walk to Noank on this trip. Other trips which are talked about are one to Watch Hill and one to South Windham, where the boys would pay a visit to cook Murdock, whose ministrations in his department while in camp we're such popular feature with the boys.

SNAPPED A BURSTING BOMB.
Luck Of Photographer IN Getting .
Wonderful Picture

One of the most remarkable pho
tographs ever obtained was that Of
the actual exploding of the bomb
which was thrown at the king and
queen of Spain On the occasion Of
their wedding.
1t was secured by an operator for
one of the largest firms OF press
photographers and, according to the
London Strand Magazine, proved a
veritable gold mine, appearing in
close on 5000 publications.
The photograph was secured
more or less by piece Of good luck.
The operator was on a stand with
his camera in the place allotted to
him by the police, waiting for the
procession to appear. The camera
was placed facing down the street
up which the procession was to
come.
From the moment It came in
sight until the royal carriage was
within about thirty yards Of him
the operator secured three pictures.
He then resdjusted the camera 90
as to get good picture OF the king
and queen In their carriage, which
was about ten yards from him
At the instant that the operator
pressed the ball and exposed plate
q dark object was hurled at the
royal carriage from q balcony win
dow, and then followed instantly q
binding fash and noise like a
thunderc!ap The operator was
hurled half stunned to the ground,
his camera following him. When
he was able to stand he saw a ter
rib!e scene below him. The large

In that storm Of rushing humanity

and several did fall Some thirty
people in all were killed ON that oc-
casion, Of whom ss least half were
dmpiy crushed o. trampled TO

that all the plates In the operators

Walking SttoIo

Probably the patriarch's staff was
the first adaptation of the walking
stick, and from its first inception to
the present day it has undergone al
most endless changes In 1901 foot
men attending gentlemen were for
biddcn to carry swords, these be-
ing replaced BY a porter's staff.
Thirty years later gentlemen were
forbidden to carry swords but al
lowed to carry large oak sticks. Be-
fore many years vanished and pol
ished woods with ornamental heads
came into use and in one form or
another have held their own.
