Rev. E. H. Smith Speaks at the Fed erated Church on Missions in China Surprise Party for Miss Ruth Boardman-Notes.

At the Federated church Friday ev- ening Rev. E. H. Smith, returned missionary from South China spoke to a large and interested audience on his work among the Chinese in edu- eating the Chinese boys and girls for the ministry. Rev. MT. Smith first told of the educational problems which missionaries from this country have to deal with. He then told of the cost of educating a boy or girl for the ministry, saying that for one year the cost per pupil was $22.50 in Mexican money or about ten dollars in Amer fcan money. He said that there were great possibilities for missions in that part of the country from which he comes. Rev. MT. Smith has a terri tory about the size of the state of Connecticut in which are twelve churches, one medical, one theological. and one preparatory school. There is great need of more churches and schools in this land and the American Missions can do a great deal along this line.
 Rev. MT. Smith is sent out by the Congregational church but his work is under the direction of the Interdenom- national Missions.

POTTER BROTHERS HELD
 FOR SUPERIOR COURT
Young Men Are charged7With Assault
 With Intent to Kill Police Officer.

Probable cause was found by Judge Colt in the cases of George and James Potter, aged 16 and 20, respectively, in police court in New London Friday morning and the brothers were bound over to the next term of the superior court in bonds of $750 each. They are charged with intent to kill Lieut.. Thomas Jeffers on the morning of Sept. 13. g 7 sse -1+45}tle 7e
 The court was informed that since the last appearance of the accused in court, Attorney. Clayton B. Smith has been engaged to represent them. and that it was his intention to present no testimony on the side of the de- fense. The states case rested with the adjournment of the preliminary hearing last Saturday and it was ex- pected to have the defense Fr1oay.
 The failure to present any testimony in defense, left no alternative for Judge Colt except to bind the two youths over to the high court for trial. Unless the bond of $750 is forthcom- ing in both. cases the boys will remain in the county jail until the next term of the criminal court in January.
 Three patrolmen figured in the gath ering of evidence and detention of the Potter boys in connection with the raid upon motor boats and subsequent assault alleged to have been commit ted on Lieutenant Jeffers.
 On the afternoon of the second day after the alleged raid, Patrolman Hammond detained the two Potter boys at police headquarters and with Lieutenant Jeffers put them through a rigid third degree, lasting fully an hour. The story which they told left no grounds on which the police could hold them. although the suspicious of the police remained the same.
 That evening, however, :. Patro1men O'DonneH and Cavanaugh, picked up an entirely new clue on which to work and when run to earth it led to the arrest of the boys early the following morning.
 The evidence which the two night patrolnen gathered left no room for doubt in the minds of the police, and the charge of theft from motor boat was fastened upon them. With their arraignment in police court, however, the officials had gathered sufficient in formation to warrant the changing of the charge to one of assault with in- tent to kill, on which they were bound over to the higher court Friday.

NOTED MEN WILL 1a SPEAK IN NORWICH. John M. Clinton and Robert w. Clark to Address Audience at Y. M. c. A.
 Hall.


 The public of Norwich and vicinity will have an unusual opportunity of hearing two men who have made their mark in the Far East. The men are John M. Clinton and Robert w. Clark, both of whom are co-workers with the noted Sherwood Eddy. in the great work for Young Men in the Far East
 Messrs. Clinton and Clark will speak building, Sunday, September 24th, at o'clock, and both men and women have been invited to attend.
 J. M. Clinton had some unique ex- -periences in connection with the Chi nese revolution and the birth of the years in Hankow, the headquarters of the Revolutionary party. Later in To- kyo, the real storm center of the Chi nese revolution. he was in most tinti- ment touch with the leaders of the movement which startled the world by throwing off the yoke of the Manchus.- When the provisional constitution for the new republic was drafted. Mir. Clin- ton, who had won a scoharship in law at Indian university, was invited into the councils.
 Tokyo was the real storm center of the revolutionary movement because of the presence of thousands of the best of China,s ynug men sent to Japan to seek the solution of the national prob lens confronting the nation. At one time there were 17,000 Chinese study ing in Tokyo alone. MT. Clinton was sent to Tokyo at the head of a staff of Christian men to work among these Chinese students. One of those asso- ciated with him was c. T. Wang, who later became vice president of the Chinese National senate, As a result of t1e work of this little group some 300 Chinese became Christians and thousands were won from a hostile to Q favorable attitude toward Christiani- ty. When the Manchu Dynasty was overtbrown and the new republic es tablished. more than half or the young CT officials in. national and provincial government positions were Tokyo stu dents, friends of MT. Clinton. Few if any Americans have the privilege of calling by their first names as many of China's leading men as has MT. Clinton.
 MT. Clinton was asked to remain in America for time as one of the ad- ministrative secretaries of the Foreign Department. During the past three years he has addressed audiences Of leading citizens in most of the larger cities of the United States and Cana da. Chambers of Commerce, Rotary clubs, conventions, prominent church es and association audiences all owe the country have heard him with pleasure and profit.
 R. W. Clark was born in Iowa, grad uated from Iowa college in 1907. He taught mathematics in the college and secured his M. A. in 1908. MT. Clark passed the Rhodes scholarship exam ination in 1907. He played on the var sity football. basketball and track teams and organized the Student Vol unteer band and was it's first chair man. He has been professor of mathematics in Chile Provincial col lege, Paotingfu. China, 1910 to -913. AS result of his outstanding influence among the university men of the city, he was called to the secretyship of the Paitingfu Young Mems Christian as- sociation which he has organized

PEQUoT RESIDENCE IS
 VISITED BY BURGLAR
Third Break in New London Tuesday Night Has Been Reported to Police

third break in the Pequot district Tuesday evening came to light Friday, in report filed with the New Lon don police by Miss M. S. Remsen, that her residence at 158 Glenwood avenue was entered and cash to the amount of $10 stolen. Jewels and diamonds which were lying about the dressers in the rooms entered on the second floor were undiSturbed.
 The finding of an ivory clothes brush, bearing the monogram of Mrs. V. c. Brown, on the lawn by the gard ener employed on the Remsen estate Friday, points to the robber having been the same who entered the homes of Vernon c. Brown and Robert Moore at 560 and TAI Pequot avenue between and 10 o'clock Tuesday night.
 It is the belief of the police that the Remsen house was the third entered on Tuesday evening, and that the rob- Der went there direct from the Brown house. A veranda, which extends around the house. gave easy. access to the second floor, by climbing one of the posts to the roof. Several rooms on the second floor were ransacked.
 Miss Remsen believes that the bur- glar was frightened away about 10.3O that evening. when members of the family ascended to the second floor to retire. Miss Remsen was a guest at the bridge party rendered at the Brown residence during the evening and did not return home until about II o'clock. She had learned of the rob- bery at the Brown and Moore houses before starting home but had no sus- picions that the robber would visit her own home.
 The robbery was not discovered un- til Thursday evening, when Miss Remsen found her purse empty. It had lain on her dresser and contained a $5 bill and small amount of change
 A further investigation in rooms on the second floor led to the discovery of the theft of a small amount of change from the room. of Mrs. R. D. Remsen and collection of dimes in a roll. It is believed that the total amount of cash stolen will exceed $16.
 Although Mrs. Remsen noted several chairs in her room disturbed when she returned home Tuesday evening, the dresser decorations were not dis turbed and there was nothing to arouse her suspicious that the house had been robbed. She did not give the changed position of the chairs a thought until the absence of the mon ey from her purse was noted.
 Members of the police department assigned to investigate the breaks, are bending every effort to run the nys- terious burglar to earth. The finding of so many articles of jewe1ry, ivory and diamonds, leads the police to be- lieve the houses were entered in quest of cash. The amount obtained. how
