Ex-Convict Killed by Accident.

Joseph Cenesky, 31, who was par doned from the state prison at Wethers- field few months ago after serving eleven years of life sentence for mur- der, was frightfully injured at the fac tory of tue Scoville Manufacturing Company in Waterbury, Saturday. The ex.convict was at work on huge drop forge used in the manufacture of shrap- nel when in some way his hand was caught in the machine and the drop came down, mangling his throat ter ribly. He died Sunday in St. Mary s Hospital.
 Since being freed from the state prison many citizens of Waterbury in. terested themselves in Cenesky's case and he had been leading a model life. While ill jail he maintained that he took no actual part in the murder of Thomas Lockwood, an aged farmer, for which he and two others were sent to prison. He said that he was tool of the other men and that while he did go there for the purpose of robbery he had nothing to do with the murder and was outside when it was committed. On leaving jail many business men offered him chances for work and be had been making good progress and supporting his aged mother, with whom he lived.

Dr. Goddard to Speak,

LIT. 1OuOdru 10 Speak,
 pr. John Calvin Goddard, the bril- liant Salisbury clergyman, is to speak at the banquet of the Salisbury Manu- lecturers Association, in the Stratfeld, February 24. Henry Dodge Estabrook. of Omaha, and ex Congressman J. Adam Bebe, of Minnesota, will be the other speakers. Of pr. Goddard, the Bridgeport Sunday Herald says:
 "As humorous speaker, few in the sfate, or, in fact, the entire east, equal John Calvin Goddard, the Salisbury, Conn, minister. He will talk on the Coming Connecticut and his address will be full of the little bits of humor that provoke a large audience into laughter. But little is required to make a large audience composed O. good spirited men laugh. but MT. Goddard has the reputation of making men more than laugh He has them rocking in their seats and is said to be one of the funniest orators of tine present day.
 "None of the manufacturers who were present at last years annual ball. quet will forget the humorous address of the Rev. w. w. Giles. The audience laughed until it's s:des ached and the tears came to the eyes of the various members MT. Goddard has the repu- tation of being funnier than even Mir. Giles, although this last is said to be impossible.
 "Mr. Goddard has spoken before the National Silk association, the Amer ican Anti Boycott association and other associations in various parts of the country. He has travelled extensively and is we'll informed on the various topics of the day. Nothing that can possibly be turned into laugh escapes MT. Goddard's attention.
 "It has often been wondered if the reverend gentleman spoke in as humor- ous vein to his congregation as he does to his after dinner audiences, but it must be, as he has never been known to speak to a half empty church or even one partly empty. He believes in preaching the gospel from human viewpoint and he does not rant and tear like many of his religious brothers. MT. Goddard is a man, a big man and whole hearted. He believes in having a good time with other men, and can face an audience composed of men who never before listened to a minister and before the close of his address he will have won every man over to his way of thinking.
 !. "Mr. Goddard will not, however, speak on religious topics before the manufacturers on February 24. His topics will be chosen from things that have been talked over at fireside and club, and he will endeavor to lend a humorous atmosphere to the whole oc. casion. Perhaps, after the heavier aG- dress of the other two speakers, the ad- dress of the Rev. MT. John Calvin Goddard will be appreciated. If this years audience is in the same frame of mind as was last years audience, MT. Goddard will receive a larger hand at the conclusion of his talk than the other two gentlemen combined. It IS the way of the world. Men would rather laugh than cry. and it is safe to assume that none of the members of the association who attend the banquet will do the latter"
