 At the time of his death Mir. Briscoe was recognized throughout the state aS an able, conscientious and success fui lawyer. He loFed the law and took pride in honorable and honest his life, he became connected with n1any important financial and indus trial interests, and for his service in there directions, this. community has recognized and will not soon forget it's lasting obligation.
 In his private life MT. Briscoe was retiring and simple in his tastes, and fin manner unasSunling almost diffl- dent Of a somewhat sensitive dispo- siticn he was not of the type of the '-hali feilow well lnet-'' He disliked ostentaticn and destested sham. To his friends he was most loyal and gen. eruus. He loved hdS home and de- lighted to share itsE attractions with those who knew hint best
 Tn the death of Willis A. Briscoe the profession which he loved and the community which he served suffered R profound loss.
 Surely the ranks or this bar have lately been sadly deLHeted Some of the brightest and best have fallen. The loved and honored .fudge the wise counsellor, the skilfnls advocate, so prominent in the trial of many causes. the young man at the very beginning of his professional career have all been taken from us- Their work here Is ended. We remember their sue. ccsses, we know some of the difficult ties which they had to meet, perhaps some of their apparent failures From all their experiences, as we know and remernDer them, it is for us to gather an inspiration for more faithful and efficient service.
 Tribute from Lucius Brown.
 Judge nsucius Brown added his re- marks in honor of the memory of At tcrney Briscoe:
 It is not necessary to speak here of the inheritance or the early train ing which so well fitted MT. Briscoe for his work. Of unquestioned integ- rity, loyal to truth and honor, he cas- fly won the confidence of his fellow men. He was positive in his con- victions and perhaps, when some of us who were younger first met him. he seemed somewhat impatient of views differing from his own. In his later years, he became more tolerant of theopfnions of others aId more con- siderate of their circums tances. Few of the opinions of others and more con- to me, have shown more of that broad ening influence which our profession ought to have.
 Mfr. Briscoe was a clear thinker His keen and discriminating knowledge of the law, as well as of practical af- fairs rendered him a most valued coun- seil0r.

 It is a matter of regret that the Polish choir and school children will not be heard separately. At first the choir was expected to sing one or two. hymns in Polish Christmas night and the children were to sing Adeste Fi- deles fn Latin Saturday afternoon, Or ganist Leo N. Mal0owski directing both. Because of lack of time, for rehearsals their director deems it wiser for them to join in the general singing, but promises that hext year all will be ready to do their part
 Old English Carols.
 The mems chorus from the Bass Clef and Academy Giee club, directed some oId-tirne English carols sure to prove inspiring. Some of the best voices in the city will be heard Tn these
 1t is expected now that the two German singing societies will be heard from Christmas night. and this will be certain to prove a popular feature,
 Children to Rehearse Again.
 In all probability another rehearsal of all the girls and boys. big and lit tie, from all the schools, will be held at the town hall Friday afternoon, at an hour to be decided upon. Those children who rehearsed Saturday made a fine chorus: but there was a misun- derstanding about the character. of the rehearsal, some of the children had other duties for that afternoon, etc. As it will be vacation Friday, a big com pany should get together to go over their hymns and carols under the leadership of Professor Georfge.

 This is busy week, probably the busiest of the year, for Capt E. w. Wilbur of the Salvation Army and his corps of assistants. They are all at work perfecting their plans to provide the needy poor of the city with Christ mas cheer In the form of neatly packed baskets of provisions for their Christ mas dinners. Captain Wilbur has al- ready the names of between 300 and 400 on his list who will receive one of these baskets. and as all the names are not yet in 1t Is probable that the number may reach the half thousand mark. These names reach the busy captain in various ways. Some are turned in by physicians who are called to homes to attend the sick in families many of whom are destitute. Often times a name finds it's way into the army's hands through some thought full insurance collector who in his rounds comes across a family in needy circumstances from time to time, and there are various other ways in which the captain becomes acquainted with the city's poor. All these reported vestigated by the army workers and the names of all the deserving poor are listed down in the captains book to be remembered with Christmas dinners.
 Tn the baskets, which will undoubt- edly bring joy and thanksgiving to the QOOA0 Ol 411d11S, lich6 WlAl OS d Gl11CkSi1. potatoes, turnips, butter, tea or coffee. evaporated milk, sugar. bread and mince pie. The baskets are to be packed at the armys hall and the greater number of them will be deliv- cred at the doors of the families. Last year there was a good deal of con- fusion in the distributing of the bas- kets. as those who were to receive them had to go to the building In which they were packed The new plan will eliminate this confusion and will prevent anyone from being over looked. Mrs. E. w. Wilbur, wife of Captain Wilbur, will have charge of the packing of the baskets
 To carry on this worthy work con- tributfons of money or provisions are necessary The two pots that have been provided to receive voluntary con- tributions from the passing public are reported as doing well, especially the pot located on Franklin square. How ever, there is still need of more con- tributions in this line and the nickel or dime of the passerby will be gratefully acknowledged by Captain Wilbur. Those who do not wish to contribute money to the cause may do just as much good by donating provisions, as chickens, sugar, butter, tea or coffee are in demand. One generous business man of Norwich contributed 10 bushels of potatoes towards the dinners last week. Those who wish to make con- tributions of any kind may communi- cate with Capt. E. W. Wilbur, 61 Otis street

EVERETT j. LAKE.
Much Sentiment Tn His Favor for Neu. Republican Candidate for Governor.


 That the republicans of Connecticut would hail Everett J. Lake as the avatar of a new dispensation in 1914 would have been regarded not so many months ago as on @ par with the uti1- ity of bringing sunshine by wishing or of raising the wind by whfstling for 1t, and there are some evidences lacking now that such possibility is to be re- alized. But ft is 8 fact that in the short time which has intervened since MT. Lake returned from an extensive trip abroad, and during which he shas been lammering away at business with no politics on the side, there has been a noteworthy expression of sentiment in favor Of him as the republican nom- inee for governor This expression has not been confined to any coterie of politicians or to any geographical or political sub division of the state but has come from nearly all parts of Con- necticut where the subject of the com ing campaign has been broached.
 Were the republican party of Con- necticut in the ascendeney today as it was ten or even fewer years ago, the mere mention of MT. Lakes name in connection with the governorship would provoke powerful opposition, political and otherwise. Were the republicans possessed of even the theoretical mar gin of safety in control which they had pbtable clements to the same adroitly antagonistic activity that 1t did then The lesson learned in 1910 of the folly of thwarting the popular choice would go unheeded now were the republicans confident of electing any strong and popular man governor.-New York Sunday Herald.

ed for Rock Island. The lad, Rudolph

boy, and this morning Chief Brinn re-
ceived a communication from John J.
Halpin, chief of the Chicago detective
force, giving a description of the fugi-
tive. The lad is Il years OF age, six
feet tall, weighs about 1875 pounds, and
is dark compleXioned. When last seen
he wore a gray suit and cap, a red
sweater shirt and a long gray over

clear, however, that he does not guar
antee the character of any Of his pros
poets. He tells each applicant to be
sure and look into this point before
he takes any steps that will be be-
yond recalling.
! THE young men of this country are
not doing their duty" says the minis
ter, "and a whole lot of young women
are not doing their duty either. But am
sure there are hundreds and thou
sands who would be glad to get mar
ried If they knew just where to look.
The present strenuous life of the
city man or woman is not conducive
to marriage. I'm going to put stop
to that condition so far as it is in
my power TO do so.
Get these people together. Here's
a girl in a town who would like to

And here's a man in a city who would

girl at the head of a home is worth

where men belong"
When DIR. Savidge started in the
work of matching mates" it tool
only a small part of his time. Sue

that accounts for his taking a down

and a secretary.
