BROTHERHOOD SUPPER.
Last Get-Together was a Record
 Breaker for Attendance.

Breaker for Attendance.
 The third Union Brotherhood supper given in the social rooms of Pilgrim Church, Friday evening, was record breaker, at least in point of attendance. llS men being present, which was sew eral more than the last previous crowd at the Methodist church. It was, aE the first union supper was, a "hash ban quet" and the amount of hash consum- ed must have been something enor- nous. The hash, by the way, was con cocted by, or under the personal super vision of Mrs Elizabeth Richmond, and was all that the most experienced con- nolsseur In hash could ask for.
 All religious denominations were rep resented in the assemblage, and it was literally a union affair. The men as sembled i'll the church auditorium and visited in real brotherhood fashion until Rev. MT. Gillette announced that the ladies In the "realms below" were ready to serve hash, when they descended and took seats at the tables, filling the ca pacious dining room to its limit. The speakers and honor guest table was at the west end, and a distinguished array of talent and importance surrounded it. The "wai tresses," score of demurs young Pilgrimesses, stood at right dress'' against the kitchen side of the room as the guests filed down, and got down to strenuous business when aIl was in readiness; turned on a stream Of hash that looked as if it might enguIE the company-but it didn't, the enguh- ing process worked otherwise.
 Rev. MT. Gillette toastmastered the feast, in in his characteristic, felicitouE manner.
 Rev. MT. Atwood asked the blessing at the beginning of the feast.
 The first speaker introduced, when the hash and ice cream were disposed off, and the cigars were unlighted was Rev. Harry Cornford, the witty pastor of the Methodist church, who paid back the pointed allusions of his brother Gillette with something just as good," and who mingled humor with philosophy. ina a manner that pleased and entertained the guests. He was warmly applauded-
 State Treasurer-elect E. s. Roberts was next introduced, and although che summons to speak was unexpected Mir Roberts gave fine heart-to' heart talkr as to old.time neighbors and friends He received a tumultuous ovation.
 Mir. Frederick Garvin, of New York and "Anketel Farm" was introduced tS a Canaan assemblage to whom he ha been summer time neighbor for A couple of years. MT. Garvin is a law yer, and made a good speech, full of witty quips and sound sense, and pleased the guests immensely.
 Frank Whiting, president of the men fE class, of Pilgrim church, was called on to give an exposition of the aims and purposes of that class, which he did in an interesting way.
 AS usual MT. Gillette kept his strong card for the last-Rev. Dr. Smith of Seattle, who gave scholarly discourse which was listened to with great inrer- | est

Suffrage CaIumnies .

Evidently the Anti-Suffragists are at their wits end for weapons to light tho rapid advance of suffrage sentiment. i'm the State and ill the country generally The handiest weapon evidently seems to be calumnies heaped upon the suffra- gists and upon women voters in suff- rage States. An instance of this kind of fighting occurred in Guilford recently at meeting addressed by Miss Alice Chittenden of the National Association opposed to Woman Suffrage. Miss. Chittenden, thinking no doubt that she was safe in slandering women thusU thousand miles away, made an attack on the women voters of Los Angeles stating that whereas before the women voted, the men had preserved a dry city, the vote of women had recently swung Los Angeles over to the wet oole umn. Unfortunately for Miss Chitteu- den there happened to be in the audi ence man from Los Angeles-Mr- Charles J. Hall, one of the Prohibition party campaign orators-who was very well acquainted with the real facts in the case. When at the close of Miss Chittenden's address, questions were called for, MT. Hall rose and courteously requested permission to make a state ment. He told the exact trutL, about the vote ill Los Angeles and\ showed that no such change as Miss Chittenden stated had come about through the votss of women but that on the contrary tise Prohibition party was convinced by Sire experience of Los Angeles that the wo- men could always be relied, upon tc, bs, on the side of temperance:. The Chair man received MT. Halls explanateB and turning to Miss Chittenden asked if she had any answer to make. MdBsq ChittendeD had no answer-none wAs possible except an apology to her fellow country women on the Pacific Coast.
 This did not end the episode, for Mr.

Suffragists Celebrate.

About 10000 women, girls, some of them Very little ones, by the hundreds, and several thousand men and boys marched in New York Saturday night for the glory of woman suffrage. It was wonderful spectacle, and was wit messed by 8 crowd that jammed Fifth Avenue from Fifty-ninth to Fourteenth Streets, where the paraders turned east to Union Square. The watching throngs the police estimated, numbered 400, 1000 to 50O,0O0 persons.
 The demonstration was in striking contrast to the parade earlier in the year when the women and girls passed through inadequately policed lines of spectators, many of whom jeered and ridiculed the cause the marchers repre- sented. Saturday night there was none of that. The crowd was as big as Fifth Avenue could hold, but not once was there an ill-natured jeer or word of ridi- cule.
 The suffrage parade last May was an argument. The parade Saturday night was @ celebration with Michigan, Kan sas, Oregon and Arizona added to their roll of states, with every political party in New York State pledged to the refer endum, the women who had worked so long and hard for this result felt that they might pause for a moment and play.

FIREMEN MAKE RECORD.
Hose Company Boys Assembled and
 Got to Fire Quick.

Canaan Hose Company distinguished itself Monday night by the record made in mobilizing it's forces, getting under way and doing effective service at the fire in East Canaan, when the Moore & Roger store was destroyed.
 The news of the fire was sent out by the telephone central here, and the heads of the fire department lost no time in scurrying around to get the boys to- gether- It didn't take long. A number of the firemen who were attending the Choral Society's annual meeting, in Town Hall, were summoned and de- parted almost precipitately from that congenial presence. About twenty of the firemen were at the hose house in an incredibly short time, and in Brew er's auto about dozen of them were transported at top speed, to the fire. Allyn Fuller took load in his auto, and Con Hitchcock, with the chemical engine in tow, followed not far behind. The record shows that in just 12 min utes from the time the boys were called out of the Town Hall, the company were at the scene of the fire and work ing like beavers to save adjoining prop erty. It was fine record.

The Sousa Concert,

MT. W. Mahaiwe Hewitt, the Great Harrington theatre manager, provided a fine feast for his patrons, Tuesday af- ternoon and evening, in the Sousa con- certs, and good audiences attended both performances. A Sousa concert is an event in any musical community, and the genius and versatility of Sousa are everywhere recognized. The programs, afternoon and evening, were a variety designed to gratify the taste of the con- noisseur in the classics and the lover of popular melody and swinging march time, and every number was given with true artistic spirit that elicited spontane- ous and enthusiastic applause.
 Canaan was we'll represented in the audiences both afternoon and evening.

Boy Scouts Dance.

The soclal dance to be given by the Canaan Boy Scouts, in Town Hall to- morrow night should be we'll patronized, judging by the number of tickets which the boys have disposed of. The public generally have shown disposition to help the organization along. which is eminently right and proper, for the Scouts organizations is one of the best agencies for making manly boys that ever was devlsed. The Scouts are plan ming to fit up club rooms in the Whit ford tenement building near the Whit. ford-Bullock store, and the proceeds of the dance will be applied toward defray ing the expense of furnishing and equip ping the quarters.

Policeman Bound Over.

After trial of over a week in the po- lice court, John F. Greene, a former member of the New Haven police de- partment. was bound over to the Jan uary term of the superior court today by Juqge Walter H. Clark of Hartford on the charge of assaulting 15 years old Ella Blau last May. Lawyer Jacob P Goodhart, counsel for Greene, in his argument, fatly charged that Patrol man Thomas D. McGovern, one of Greene's former brother officers, com mitted tbe assault and that he is being protected by political influence. Greene, Goodhart said. was being made the goat" by the so, called system" so as to protect McGoyern.
 The assault for which Greene was bound over was alleged by the state to have been committed by him while in uniform. He is alleged to have taken the girl to a shed in the rear of Grand avenue on the pretense that he was arresting her. City Attorney John R. Booth branded Greene as a "dastard" and "coward" in his argument for the state and said that his story on the stand sounded like the Authorizations of an opium smoker"
 Judge Clarke fixed Greene's bond at $2, ,500 which was furnished by Francis W. Foley, ex-director of public works and prominent democratic politician.
