'sHow Story Grew"
Related by Aid Women
On Wednesday Evening


"How the Story Grew" was the
title of a play put on by divisions
one, two and three of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Ladies Aid Society
Wednesday evening in the base
ment of the church when the wo-
men of the fourth, who won the
membership contest were entac-
tanned.
Noding plumes, old-fashioned
shawls and tight-waisted bodlces
of a decade ago were worn by tire
women in the cast. The play con-
sisted of demonstration of how
women can talk. The gossip
started with a conjecture by "Mrs.
Brown" about the new tenants OF a
house in. the village" and ended
with "Mrs. Brown, murdered In
her bed by large foreigner" The
announcement of the tale came
when Mrs. Brown, very much alive
arrived on the scene and announc-
ed that "the new minister, Mr.
Morton" was to live in the house.
The cast included Mrs. I. w
Payne, Mrs. F. N. Morton, Mrs
Christina Larson, Mrs. Alfred
Anon, Mrs. G. A. Rupp, Mrs. G
w. Sherk, Mrs. Stradford and Mrs
II. N. Mueller.

Z MILLION NEEDED
 FOR INSANE ASYLUM
Hall Explains That St,M,@ Appropriation Will Be Asked

Hartford. Conn.,, May 9 R-Pre- liminary estimates by the state board of finance and control indicate that the proposed new hospital for the insane to be built in Fairfield coun- ty will cost $2.O0o.o0o. Of this amount it is probable that the next legislature will be asked to appropri- ate $1.5O0,0o0, the balance to be authorized at the 1881 session when the work hears completion.
 At the same time as the presenta- ton of the bill providing for the new institution for the insane, it is likely, Commissioner Edward r. Hall of the state department of finance and control said today, that the general assembly will also be asked to consider provisions for preventive work in the state to reduce the num- her of new admissions and re-admis- sions to state institutions is now be- ing given careful study by Commis- sioner Hall, the governor and others.
 The new institution decided for Fairfield county will at first be built to accommodate 300 patients, if the legislature accepts the recommenda- tons of the board of finance and control and the superintendents of the existing institutions for the in sane. This is the minimum neces- sary to relieve the present over- crowding at Norwich and Middle town hospitals, it has been decided.
 A site for the new hospital has not yet been decided upon, although several farms have been examined by state officials as possible for selection. It is estimated that the land will cost about $200,0o0. State officials concerned with the problem are practically unanimous in the plan to recommend construction of nine dormitories, power plant, ad- ministration building, service build ing, assembly hall and recreation building, storehouse, etc., etc.
