Mothers darling, age four, was not

the language they used. One day.
while mother was busy, he slipped
over into the next street and played
for half an hour with a crowd OF older
boys. In that half hour he took a com

FIRST PARADE In 1882
Knights of Labor Of New York Inaug-
urated the March, as Celebration
of the Day, in the Eastern
Metropolis That Year.

UNLIKE other holidays that are
observed by the American peo-
u pie, Labor day did not have it's
beginning in the commemora-
ton of any great event in the worlds
history and for that reason there is
considerable doubt as to who was re-
sponsible for it's birth.
There are many who lay claim to
being the originators of Labors ma
tional holiday. and there have been
many chronological tables produced
in support of each ones claim. Au-
thorities, however, are almost unani-
mously agreed that the celebration
that has now become one of the ma
tional holidays was given its first
impulse by the Knights of Labor in
New York in 1882.

movement did not. they say, at that

CITY COURT CASES


 Henry J. Bunce, formerly of Kings ton, N r., but for the past four years a resident of Bridgeport at 146 Bridgeport street, was in the city court this morning on charges of de- sertion and living with woman not his wife. Probable cause Hwa,s found and he was held in bonds of $1,oO0 for appearance before the criminal superior court.
 The evidence showed that married 23 years ago, he first deserted his wife IS years ago, after the birth of five children. He returned at odd times until five years ago. Three mora children were born and one is now dead. He was arrested while living with three sons and Mrs. May Taylor, at 695 East Main street. On the wit ness stand he attempted to deny the legitimacy of one little girl, Il years old, but was roundly scored by both court and Prosecutor Delaney. Bunce had told the neighbors his wife was dead. In his own defense he alleged that Mrs. Taylor was only a house keeper and that no improper relations had existed.
 Patrick Heating, a. railroad watch man was fined $1O and costs and AL onzo c. Chf1ds, S15 and costs for an assault upon Thomas Byrnes and an other ten days ago in the Whiting street railroad yards. Bonds of $1oo for an appeal were furnished4 though

 He said that the shift was made in different places. All he had to go by was the two men on the track
 On the other runs he said he cut off east of the tower, Most of his three years as passenger fireman was in &C., connodation trains, he said. He said he reduced 15 when he saw the dis tance signal, say 250 feet away. When he passed the distance signal he gave the emergency, 300 feet from the first section.
 Attorney Fitzgerald clashed with Spock when he began to question the engineer as to the method of changing engines at Stamford. the purport of the questions being to show that Doherty should have been expecting to make stop, at that pont.
 Commissioner McChord ruled that if Spock wished to bring out anything as to the physical conditions he was able to do it through other agencies than Doherty.
 Other questions by Spock along similar lines brought similar objection from Fitzgerald. who was sustained by McChOrd. AsSo ocia.ted with Fitzgerald as counsel for Doherty is Former Sen ator Mitchell of New Haven.

Funeral of Father Lynch toI Be Held Saturday Morning
CContinued from Page 1.)

As a mark of appreciation of the splendid services of Father Lynch the bishop honored him by making him the first pastor of the new parish. That was in November 1902. The task of erecting a suitable place of worship for his flock confronted the young pastor and with his customary zeal he entered into the work He purchased the splendid church prop erty where now stands the uncomp1et- ed edif1ce that some day will be car ried to its final completion, and which is also the scene of a, large and com modious brick school with a fine au- ditorium. During the work on the church building he was able to hold divine services in the auditorium of the school building.
 For the education of the young of his flock he brought here from RocheS- ter, N. T., a band of the sisters of St. Joseph noted for their educational equipment, being foremost among the teaching corps connected with the church.
 He lived to see his people happy and contented and ever willing to give Of their mite to encourage him in his great work. Had he been spared un- til the z9th of this month he would have been 25 years a priest.
 It is only few weeks ago that his parishioners presented him a purse of g, ,500 in the hope that he would be able to take a sea voyage 1OE HIS health This he intended to do but his Maker decreed otherwise.
 Father Lynch was first stricken several years ago with an ailment which developed into arterial trouble and the best specialists in America all agreed that his illness was incur able. It was their judgment that his break down was due to his unremit- ing labors which completely wore him out A man of magnificent physique and handsome countenance Father Lynch when he first came to this city, looked like a. man who would be blessed with a ripe old age. But he paid the penalty that so many of his calling have before him who like him have tried to burn Sthe candle at both ends. He was true priest Of God. He loved the poor and he loved the people whether they were of his own faith or not. No Catholic priest was ever held in higher esteem by his r1on-Catholic neighbors. A man of wonderful activity, mental and physical. throughout the quarter cen- tury of his career as a Roman Catho- lie priest, there never was a moment when the spiritual welfare of his peo- pie was not uppermost with him.
