HUNTINGTON .HoNoRED HALE.
Lona Island Towns Memorial to Patriot Whose Birthplace Was South Coventry.

c, E. Breckenridge of East Wood stock writes:
 After visiting the Nathan Hale Me- morial schoolhouse in New London re- gently. I was interested to note the estimate of Hale's character over on Long Island, the site of his experi- ence as spy and of his capture by the British. He was born at Coventry, Conn.,, in 1755, and educated at Yale for the ministry. In 1776 he accepted Washington's commission to spy out British territory. He crossed Long Island sound from Norwalk, Conn.,, to Huntington, L. l.. in Suffolk county After two weeks spent in spying the enemy's works, he returned to Hunt ington, expecting to meet a boat from Norwalk to take him back to Connecti- cut. He saw a boat which he supposed was the one containing his friends waited for them to land, and found to his sorrow that the men were British, and he was captured and the evidence found upon his person condemned him to the death of spy. He was exc cuted in New York Sept. 22. 1776
 Huntington is proud of it's connec- tion with the patriot, and in 1891 erected a neat fountain lamp in the village. on the shore of the bay near the location of his capture, they placed 45-ton boulder in his honor, and upon it were put three massive bronze tablets which tell his story.

Passes of Without Any Violation of the Law--Two Good Performances.

Both the afternoon and evening perfor- mances, that were presented on the fair grounds, were well patronized, es- pecially the evening one, and were en- tirely acceptable to the majority of the patrons, who thoroughly enjoyed the stunts that a real circus offers. There were no new and startling tbrills-just plain, everyday. circus acts that could not be censured by anyone.
 The police authorities were on hand early in the day. Chief E. H. Rich
 Dond gave the promoters of the va gsDus games, etc, to understand that everything must be o. K. or something would drop. No strong games were permitted, and there were no obnox- ious side shows. Lieut.. Daniel Kill lourey and Officer Louis Paulhus were on duty at the circus during the day and fin the evening other patrolmen were on hand to see that Chief Rich mond's orders were obeyed. The chief himself was also on the alert through out the day to see that the law was not violated. iS
 Everything in connection with the coming, stay, and going of the really good circus was quiet, orderly and satisfactory as far the authorities were concerned.
