, BULLETINS CALENDAR
With Burning of Steamer City of New
London, on Which His Father Was
Lost,

One of those who found a particular
interest in the picture calendar pub
lished with The Bulletins New Years
edition, which showed the burning of
the steamer City of New London, was
Matthias w. Baker, now a resident of
Providence.
1t was his father who was chief en-
gineer on the vessel on Nov. p, 1871,
and was one of the II whos lost their
lives. The engineer, according to the
accounts of the disaster, stuck to his
post until driven from it by the flames,
but his persistency in keeping the en-
gines going enabled the captain almost
to succeed in his purpose of running
the steamer ashore near the Poquetan-
-uck drawbridge. Twenty-four of those
on board the boat were saved.
Mr.. Baker has written from Provi-
dence to. The Bulletin, asking for one
of the Observation-Disclosures that shows the
burning of the steamer.

Piece Of. Embroidery Comes to Primary
Class of ToIIand Congregational Sun
day School.

Last year, when the Belgian relief

was passed around in Tolland and
quite a sum was secured to buy -four
for the destitute people. In the money
given was a sum for a sack of -four
from the primary class in the Congre-
gational church. Last Sunday q piece
of embroidery. worked by the Belgian
children fors the children of America,
and framed by a friend in Hartford,
was presented the primary room in
Tolland. Only a limited number of
these embroidered pieces were sent to
America, so Tolland feels elated at re
ceiving such an interesting gift.

THROUGH CHESTERFIELD
RATHER THAN MONTVILLE.
Route That Tourists Through Mantle
Take to Reach Hartford Turnpike.

The selectmen of Mantle have sew
eral men at work on the Chesterfield
highway where new road is being laid
out north Of the Gadbois place, which
when completed will do away with a
bad hill there and make great i'm
provement in the road. The new
stretch of road goes around to the east
of the hill and eliminates it entirely.
However, in order to make the i'm
provement, it is necessary to remove
several large powders which will take
considerable time. This road is used
considerably now, as tourists go this
way to the Hartford turnpike rather
than through Montville, as the road is
much better.

SENATORG. 4. Sl4ZER
 MAKES IMPRESSION
ADDRESSES A CROWDED HOUSE AT NOME AUGUST FIRST,
 SAYS REPORT.

The Daily Nome Nugget of August ?. reports the reception given Senator Sulzer by the residents of the city in the following:
 NOME. Aug. 2.-Practically every male in Nome who was not otherwise engaged was in attendance at the A. B. Hall last evening to hear the dem ocratic candidate for delegate to con gress, Senator Chas. Sulzer, deliver his initial declaration of principles and intentions in the Second division.
 Also there was. a large gathering of the fair sex who followed the pro ceedings with close attention.
 The big hall was filled to overflow ing shortly after the designated hour and, for nearly two hours, the crowd listened with close attention to- the remarks of the gentleman who aspires to the highest office within the gift of the people of Alaska.
 Sulzer made an excellent impress ion Although not trained speaker, he possesses a quality of expression and a striking earnestness of manner which more than make up for any absence of highly developed forensic abilities. His principal appeal to the voters was based on the belief that change in the methods of territorial representation at Washington is bad ly needed and he presented his argu- ment at considerable length and with telling effect
 He opened his remarks by stating that he was highly gratified to stand before a Nome audience and consider ed that nothing more representative of Alaska could be found than the peo- pie of Nome. He was glad to be in Nome and to meet the people. He declared that he was an Alaskan and loved and was proud of the country which had been his home for fourteen years.
 For Nome and the Second division AG plOphSSAGu q DllAAldul AululO Ato glories are not all in the past and the future loomed broad and grand when the proper methods and condi- tions enabled increased development The country was languishing, not for lack of resource but absence of facil- ities. Roads were needed, a harbor and better mail and telegraph faeil- tiles He was able to appreciate the needs for he had himself endured the trials which afflicted the people of this section The reindeer industry in his view was one of the greatest possibilities and he forsaw the time when the northerly sections of Alas ka would be the greatest meat pro ducing district of the United States, if not the world.
 He then took up the personal side of his candidacy and speedily won the sympathies of his hearers by telling of his own experience since he arrived in the country, a mere boy, and had fought and won his way to independence, sharing in the tolls and hardships incident to the pioneer life of the early days Alaska was his home land by right of sharing in it's development and upbuilding and he

felt that he could do much for its future if allowed to represent it in the halls of congress because that his every interest was identified with the soil. Most politicians were long on promises. He promised only that he would do his utmost to serve the country-not one section or division but the whole country This he con tended had not ben done by the present delegate. MT. Wickersham had done little or nothing for the country, in his opinion, he had been long on promises and short on works. Mir. wickersham had not made good with the people although he had monopolized the delegateship for eight long years.
 He wanted only two years for him. self and if he could not do more than Mir. Wickersham within that period he wanted the people to throw him out, He declared that the delegate claimed credit for everything that had been granted to the country by congress whereas he had himself been respon- sible for little He claimed that the major portion of the disabilities un- der which the country is laboring are due largely to the failure of the delegate to fulfill his obligations  to the people.
 The balance of his remarks were largely devoted to showing wherein Mir. Wickersham was both neglectful and inconsistent in his statements relative to statehood and the conduct of the affairs of the territory. Mir Sulzer also strongly denounced the conservative policy, declaring that the people who bore the hardships of pioneering and barred the primeval land for the coming generation should be the ones to benefit by what their tolls and labors developed
 In conclusion he asked that the peo- pie send him to Washington where he believed that he could be of real benefit to the territory and bring it added benefit and prosperity
 Although speaking at some length. MT. Sulzer held his audience well in hand and made numerous friends. At the conclusion of the address mum bers went upon the platform and earn estly congratulated him on his effort and commandatory remarks were much in evidence as the large gather ing filed out
