THOUGHT CHILD
 HEARD WHISTLE FOR THE CROSSING

Engineer D. A. Tucker of the train which struck and killed five year old Earl s. Ede at Springdale last Thursday, did not know the fla taItty had happened until a few min utes afterward. he told Coroner Phe- Ian today. He saw the boy running g along a cross-road but thought he heard the locomotive whistle had been heard by the child.
 Instead of that the boy evidently did not see the train, which came suddenly around a curve. He ran against a car in the middle of the train and was instantly killed. The train was a passenger accommodation running from New Canaan to Stam- ford. Conductor H. D. r. Palmer said he did not see the boy and knew nothing of the accident.
 As counsel for the boys family have asked for an opportunity to in troduce other testimony, the inquest has been continued by the coroner until next week.

Four meetings of workers for the drive of the Irish Educational Fund campaign were held last night at St. AuEustine's hall. Sacred Heart school, St. Mary's school and St. Joseph's hall. The generals of the respective districts are William Hogan, Edward Hamilton, John Tague and Dr. W. J. A. O'Hara.

PACIFIC FLEET
 SAILS MAKING EPOCHIn HISTORY

 or in army khaki stood risidiy at at tcution, facing the bright flags flung from every staff in the gray fleet. Promptly at S:3O a destroyer stole slowly out from it's place in line be- hind the battlcships.

 On her heels came the Mississippi,

 The sailing of the great fleet today marks Q complete change In naval policy, a, change Outgrowing out of the defeat of Germany in the great war Not while the German fleet ex- isted nor while German eyes were Ievellcd covetously st the rich and undeveloped resources of South and Central America could American na- val strength have been divided.
 The composftfon of the Pacific fleet tells it's own story. The three most modern ships of the line in the navy, the New Mexico, Idaho and Missis- slppi, arc headed west. The people of the western coast are to see for the first time the ships of this type at sea.
 Not since President Roosevelt sent the Atlantic fleet to girdIe the globe, have the people of California, Oregon and Washington seen in their harborS q more powerful and modern fighting craft than the old hero ship Oregon, long out of date and retains her place in the navy list only because of her valiant record. Beside the 30,000 ton flagship of the Pacific fleet the Oregon will be almost Q pigmy against even the speed of more than r knots which made the old ship queen of the navy for. years, Rodman's main fleet, has eight big ships, can maintain about 21 knots for hours at a time, while his destrOyers can turn up 35.
