HOLIDAY sERENApEs.
Given Chief Woodward and Others by Those Engaged in Noisy ceIebrat-

Lively serenaders gave the old town good time during the early hours of Monday morning-and a noisy one. The stroke of the midnight hour was accepted as a signal to turn loose the noise brigades and what the brigades did with their opportunity was ample and can be proved by almost every body.
 They had a full, supply or n,Sp and turned loose the most rattlesome ht- tie welcome to the good old Fourth, a day late, that it has received here abouts for some few years.
 r A fine feature about the celebration was that there was no rough stuff. There was plenty of noise and then some to spare, especially in the vfcfn- ity of where a parade was organized, led by fife, bugle and~drum corps; but there was no wrecking of more or less valuable property, as used to be considered the proper thing. Here and there a wagon was seized and given a new station in fife and there were some other stunts of that kind, but on the whole, the celebration, if the noisiest ever, was conducted with all respect to property rights.

Woodward of the fire department was given tremendous ovation at his home on Academy street along about 2 o'clock and the dose was repeated a few minutes AdhSA OCiOI0 lIAC 1AOQSS Ol J JaQS0 w. '.

 Altogether the welcome to the hoIi- day was one of the greatest ever. No accidents were reported ether than of minor nature.

The weather Monday forenoon was anything but favorable for athletic sports and up to noon it looked very much as though the community Fourth celebration would not take place. The rain let up about 12 o'clock and the sports were begun in. drizzling rain at 1 o'clock. At o'clock the sun be- gan to break through the clouds and good weather was the order for the rest of the afternoon and evening.

 Captain Murray started toward the man, but before he. could get into close quarters the fellow began to retreat and sneeringly and repeatedly invited the captain to catch him if he could. After some time of this by-play the fellow became so confident in his abil- ity to retreat that he must have felt as good as do the Russians in that line, for he offered to bet the captain dol lar and half that he couldn't get him.
 The captain apparently gave up try ing soon thereafter and leisurely sauntered down the street. MT. Fresh Guy immediately resumed his fool per- formance, operating from a doorway at the Ballard and Clark store. In the meantime the captain had swung down around the Pomfret street end of the square and up through Canal street. In about a minute later he qualified himself the quarry did not see the captain until the officer was within six feet of him, and a jump by the captain resulted in his landing within range. He grabbed the fellow be- fore he could make a break and took morning the prisoner will have an op- portunity to tell the court who he is; he refused to give his name to Captain Murray.
 A Quiet Holiday.
 Putnam's safe and sane Fourth plans worked out as we'll as was anticipated There was not great amount of dis turbance during the early hours oi Monday morning, which was used as the night before and little rodyism. Special officers were added to the reg ular force of police. A considerable amount of noise was produced in the city during the day. but nothing extra ordinary on the whole. There were fewer accidents of a serious nature in this city than for a number of years and the heavy rains of the past few days proved a good protection against the usual Fourth of July fires.

Mrs Annie Cozenk, IS. wife of Ste- .pfien Cozenlx, was shot in the neck about o'clock Monday morning, the bullet entering at the left side and passing out at the right side In it's swift passage through the flesh no in- portant structure was injured, al- though "a slightly different course by the missile would have meant death for the young woman.
 ] The bullet that hit her was a stray one evidently from a revolver in the hands of some crazy user of such a
 weapon. Who fired the shot had not been ascertained up to Monday night. Mrs. Cozenk was coming from a shed across the back yard to her home
 when she was hit. No one in the vi-
 c4nity is known to have been using a
 revolver at the. times Mrs. Cozenk was
 not seriously distressed by her wound.
 but Dr. E, F. Perry was immediately
 called. Mrs, Cozenk was taken to the hospital. No serious results are ex-

A large audience was present at the Snorning service at the Westfeld Cong Aegational church Sunday. being the sfxtieth anniversary of the first Sabbath service in the present church building, also the tenth anniversary of the beginning of the present pas torate. The service was also of ex- ceptional interest because of the re- ception Of thirteen into church mem bership. The pastor, Rev. c. H Bar Der, used as his text: Hitherto hath the Lord Helped Us After speaking of the fact that it was wise for na- tions and churches and individuals to erect their memorials and to write upon them the record of Gods protec- ting care, he said, Tt was just three score years ago. on the first Sunday in July, that the first Sabbath service was held in this church building.
