Rumor has been rife with many
stories as to size and cost of the new
Catholic church to be built at this
place. 1t is to be hoped that some one
of the many stories will come true in
time, but as yet nothing definite has
been determined as to whether q
church will be erected or of its cost
if decided upon. However, it is hoped
to come to a decision at the meeting
on the second Sunday in March, and if
possible to secure the funds, it is hoped
that plans may be made for the con
.struction of a cement building, 30X60,
on Main street north of ReXford's
building, n hat will cost about 3d.,
500.

An entirely new and one Of the

ever been presented in the lyceum
world is a patriotic program, called,
"The Blue and The Gray" which
will be presented here on Dec. 9th at
the Kennedy Opera House under the
auspices OF the local military company.
The entertainment takes it's hearers
back to the days Of the civil war. Few
people know the true causes and the
real history that led up to the civil
war and the two men paint word pic
lures that leads one back to the bat
tledelds Of the early sixties.

THE VETO

One of the most encouraging signs of the day is the veto by Governor Baldwin of the bill substituting the Taylor Souvenir. It is small steal that has been punctured by the gub- ernatorial pen, but it creates a mod est inference that the executive may be waiting for larger grabs, with the same weapon. There are franchise bills to come. There is the bill grant ing million to New London, to build ocean terminals for ghostly trans atlantic steamers. There is the state tax bill. waich is likely to get legis- lative approval. There are the ap- propriations for the support of the Criminal Common Pleas Court, use less as fifth wheel to a whale Large things from small beginnings grow. Let us have flood of steal vetoes.

TAKING THE RISK.

Lieut.. Philip Hesarty. in becoming ness" He was killed in the instant of duty on his way to a. fire. The fire commissioners met promptly and voted to obtain a pension for his widow, which the dremen's pension law. curiously enough, does not pro- vide for the dependents of firemen killed on duty. although superan- nuated firemen are cared for.
 So far as we know, not a single man has arisen to proclaim that it will be wrong to pension Lieut.. Heg- allowed to struggle along the best way she can, ''beeause her husband knew that fire fighting was a risky business and ought not to have gone into it.''
 Yet eminent citizens. who want his widow to have pension, get turkey mad if it is suggested that the needy widow of every workman killed at his post ought to be pensioned.
 Fire fighting is not the only haz- ardous business. All industry is hazardous to some extent. Fire fight ing is not the only social service. All duty done for the collectivity is social service. Hegarty was a soldier of in- dustry. So were the men who con- stituted the crew of the Federal Elk press. who were killed on duty. But the widow of the brave Hegarty will get a pension and get it promptly. The widows of the brave trainmen will get no pension at all. That is one of the differences between pub- lie. employment and monopoly ern- pleyment. Fortunately the state is about to intervene with a compensa- ton act to rectify the gross injustice which treats the widows of public servants publicly employed as they ought to be treated. and leaves the widows of public servants privately employed to get along the best way they can.

Church Struck
 During Mass Congregation Comes Out to See Bremen Hard at Work on Blazing Steeple

It was while Rev. Thomas Laden Of Hartford, was saying mass yesterday morning in Holy Trinity church at Wallingford and group of worship pers were in attendance, that the spire of the church was struck by lightning and the priest and his people all un- conscious of anything but the terrific roar of thunder that accompanied it.,
 continued the worship until the mass was finished and then filed out of the edifice and were astonished to see ai- most the whole of the town on the spot and the hose company ready to play on the burning steeple.
 The older residents of the town re- called the dreadful tornado of over thirty years ago, when they saw the blaze, for the first church of the par ish which stood in the cemetery on Colony street was destroyed in that catastrophe. But for the effective work of the borough firemen. under Chief John Luby. the church might have been destroyed As it was, a damage of S15,OO0 was done to the church, which through the able ad- ministration of Rev. John Carroll had almost been cleared of debt.
