The secret marriage of Nellie Deanes
aged II, and Thomas F. Hyde, 81, both
employees of the Locomobile Company
Of America, was disclosed last night
in a sensational attempt of the young
bride to end her life with a draught
of chIoroform.
Mrs. ffIyde, known to all her a,sso-
ciates only as Nellie Deane,, who is
little more than a school girl, drank a
large dose of ehloroforn at the home
of her father, Henry Deanes a railroad
conductor, of 104 Jewett avenue, at
7 80 last evening.
Prompt discovery of her rash act,
and. the fathers presence Of mind in
administering effectua1 first aid treat
ment saved her life. He gave her
large dose of mustard and hot water,
while awaiting the arrival of the
emergency hospital ambulance corps.
With the arrival of DR.. ]. r. Canavan,
the girl was found to be out of imme-
diate danger, and the ambulance sur
geon left her to the care of the family
physician, DR. o. L. Massinger.
None of the household at first knew
the motive of her attempted suicide.
When the girl became hysterical. she
disclosed to the family the facts of
her secret marriage to Hyde. To con-.

PLAN ADDITION
FOR CHURCH OF
SACRED HEART

Preliminary plans for improvements
to the Church yof the Sacred Heart on
Myrtle avenue, which are estimated to
cost about $685. 900, are now being drawn
in the offices of Fred. J. w. Colt, a
noted church architect of Paterson,
N. J.
Additions and alterations that are
not settled upon, will be made SO that
the church will become one of the
most modern in this city from a point
of comfort, convenience and decora-
tion.s Additions contemplated will be
of brick 1and stone. and not exceed one
story in height. There will be a gem
era1 interior remodeling of the church.
Sacred Heart church is one of the
oldest Roman Catholic church edifices
in this city. With the rapidly grow
ing population of the parish the
changes have been needed for some
time.
No radical improvements have been
made since 1899 when the rectory was
rebuilt after a disastrous fire. The

Rapid development of that section
of the West End of Bridgeport con-
tiguous> to State street extension is ex-
pected by industrial heads and real
estate men as the result of the rapidly
progressing facilities for freight
handling being made by the New
Haven road at the intersection of
State street and Fairfield avenues.
Bulk tracks already laid, are now
large steam rollers which are tempting
down the c1nder roadbed.
Increased trackage is believed to be
planned by the New Haven because OF
the recent sale of the Stanley Bronze
Co. property, which stood in the way
of proposed additions to spur tracks
on property owned by the railroad
company.
1t was admitted by officials of the
Bronze Co. today that their present
site at State and Dewey streets had
been sold to agents, believed to repre-
sent the raiI1oad. This sale was con-
sunnated with the utmost rapidity as
it was only last week that plans for
an addition to- this factory were filed
with the building commissioners.
The Stanley factory will now move to
Holland avenue. directly in the rear of
the Grant A1anufacturing Co., where
a large tract has been purchased from
he#Belknap Manufacturing Co. tina t.
purchased about two years ago with
the plan of moving to that spot.
The new factory of the Bronze Co.
will begin by a brick and steel build
ing, about 40 by $50 feet in length,
with additions Of brick and stone as
Another contemplated building is
that of the Blue Ribbon Auto &. Car
riage Co. which will erect a three
story brick and steel building struc-
ture, 100x6o feet, in the rear of its
present large factory.
E. A. Godfrey. president of the Blue
Ribbon Co., in speaking of the rapid
of his business today,
said: 1--WE are not the, only concern
that has been forced to seek increas-
ed accommodations. Everywhere in
Bridgeport factories are under the ne
cessity of jen1arging.
This section of Bridgeport is to be
greatly benefieted in a manufa acturing
way by the present location of spur
tracks. There have been several ru-7
mors of factories to locate in this vi
cinity and the rush of building on
the old circus lots is passing the ex-
pectations of anyone in this vicinity
