$9, 300 FOR ROYAL LINEN
 MILLS AT AUCTION.
Mystic Mill Property Was Bid in By
 Largest Creditor.

The Royal Linen mills at Mystic, were sold at auction there Thursday by Charles B. Wheeler in accord ance with an order of the court to satisfy outstanding claims against them. Chief of these claims was one of s10,000 held by Fred A. Sherman of Worcester. which with interest amounted to about $13,0O0, and a tax bill of $1,3S9.42.
 MT. Sherman bid in the plant for the next highest bidder would offer $9,300 which was $100 more than the next highest bidder would offer. That bidder was George Barker of Warren, R. l., who bought in the ma chinery of the plant, sold separately by J. Elmer Ayers, for $2,000.
 It is said to be possible that MT. Barker will make some arrangement for taking possession of the factory and conducting linen manufactur- ing business there. There is also a possibility that MT. Sherman, the largest creditor of the plant, will re- move from Worcester his corset fla bric manufacturing business and oc- cupy the plant.

 A salary of $150 was fixed for the office of secretary. It has heretofore been done gratis, but it was apparent that to expect the labor that the posi- tior exacted from it's incumbent was unreasonable so the salary was fixed. Frederick c, Burrows made the mo- tion for the giving of a salary to the secretary and advocated it's adoption with a good deal of vigor, advancing arguments that carried the motion without dissent.

INSTALLATION AT GERMAN CHURCH
Rev. F. F. Werth Formally Placed in Pastorate to the People by Rev. E. F. EIinkeldey of Middetown-To the Pastor by Rev. J. Timm of New Haven-Special Music by Maennerchor and Mixed Choir.

Rev. F. P. Werth, who has been serving the German Lutheran church as pastor since the first of November, was formally installed in the pastorate at services held at the church on Thursday evening. A congregation that filled the church to it's capacity was present for the services, which began at 7.45 o'clock.
 The sermon to the Congregation was by Rev. E. F.. Hingkefdey of Middle town, who spoke impressively from the text 1 Cor. 4: Let a man so account of us, as of ministers of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God. Here, moreover, 1t is required in stew ards that man be found faithful But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of mans judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self. For I know nothing against my self; yet I am not hereby justified; but he that judgeth me is the Lord.
 He spoke of what the congregation could demand of the newly called pas tor, pointing out that he serves not man, but Christ, and that they were not to demand of him things that he could not fulfill. They were not to judge him, but to be patient.
 The sermon to the pastor was from the same text and was delivered by Rev. J. Timm of New Haven, who spoke of the paStorate as service and trusteeshtp. He is president of the

district of Connecticut of the New York synod of the Evangelical Luth- eran church.
 The formal installation was per- formed by Rev. MT. Timm.
 Twenty-two singers from the Taft vile Maennerchor rendered two selec- tions during the services and there Ssare anthems by the mixed choir of the church which led the congrega- tional singing,
 The benediction at the conclusion of the service was pronounced by the newly installed pastor.
 A lunch was served in the Sunday school room after the installation ser vice was over. This part of the eve ming was in charge of the ladies of the church. Pastor Werth and the visiting clergymen and the deacons of the church were seated at a special table, which was prettily decorated with bouquets of flowers.
 Pastor Werth was born and educated in Germany, but entered the ministry in Wisconsin in 1898, where for a year he had a pastorate at Janesville. He also did missionary work for year in Michigan, but in the fall of 1913 he left the west as a change of climate was needed on account of the rheu- matiSm with which he suffered. He bought a farm at North Franklin, where he has been located until his call to the passionate of the church here.

SKIRTS STIRRED AND FLARlNe.
Much Attention Given to Rems- Waists High at the Back, Sleeves Long-New Ideas in Hats.

While yet the temperature is we'll below the freezing point, there is be- ing displayed a bewildering line of tub and other summer frocks and suits. Palm Beach cloth suits, the skirt far ing modishly, the natty jackets effect ively trimmed. This style of spring suit wins instant admiration.
 Linen, lawns. dimit'es, defined and broken plaids, something entirely new in frosted silks, soft pussy willow taf- fetas, crepe de chimes, black and white in various materials, quaint, dainty silks reminiscent of Colonial patterns, are among the seasons offerings
 Skirts flare pronouncedly, and a fea- ture of dressy frocks is the emphasis given the hem. There are corded hems what are called by the trade deep cuff bottoms" hems with bows and round ed or Greclan border scallops, and ev- cry imaginab ble sort of trimming
 Combinations are in high favor, both as to materials and colors. The fash ionable sand tint is noted in coats and suits. There is much braiding, while ribbon enters largely into effective trimming.
 With reference to scalloped hems, they are so finished to match the fa- vorite style of sca1loped hat brims.
 And, speaking of hats, one noticed yesterday was a clever adaptation of the Harry Lauder idea, worked out in d lClS OO uS5IC Ih1IdU. UT it had bronze flowers and uncut velvet Florette ribbon.
 Handsome III the extreme was a tri- corne hemp in sand color, with Alice blue taffeta bow and a. ,ot of satin rosebuds in rose shades. N->
 A box turban in French knot braid was of black, with white top. There was a standing effect of black horse hair braid, and a line of cerise around the face and forming three small bows at the back. Poised at the front was an ostrich pompon
 An army blue large sailor in French crepe had a transparent brim with a garland of flowers inlaid. A band and tied bow with an underbrim bow of velvet ribbon made a smart finish
 On a hemp Gainsborough, covered with French blue crepe, the top brim trimming was of grapes and roses. A chic bow of Belgian blue ribbon was under the brim.
 Very beautiful was black sailor with rose edge and roses on the crown. This was veiied with black French crepe and had a dashing spider bow at the back.
 Gowns, Waists and Neelwear.
 It is difficult to imagine anything daintier than are the gowns displayed this season.
 Even in the cotton gowns; necks are high and sleeves long.
 This is emphasized in & blue and black striped taffeta, having black net sleeves and yoke. The high standing collar and long sleeves of the net are excellent examples of the favored modes of the season.
 Shirred skirts are top-1iners in pop ularity.
 One handsome design noticed at the openings Thursday was that of a gray crepe de chine in which the shirring lar cord finishing the hem. Belt and sleeves were in points of the gray over cerise velvet. Silver lace was inlaid in the waist and there was a rich f1n- ish of gray ends tipped with cerise beaded drops.
