A. Jump Addresses Veterans Flays Those "Who lie About Their War Records." PLANS FOB MEMORIAL DAY IN NEW BRITAIN. Insane Woman Tries to Jump from Roof 300 Names Added to the Census. (Special to Tha Courant.) NEW BRITAIN. Monday, May 80.

Memorial Day service was held in the South Church last evening which was attended by the members of the a. R. Post and the other patriotic organizations of the city. The companies of the local militia acted as escort to the veterans. The church was decorated with flags, a huge one hanging over the high front of the organ.

The quartet of the church rendered several appropriate selections. In welcoming the guests of the church the pastor. Rev. Herbert A. Jump, expressed his satisfaction that at this patri-tic service it was possible for the women to attend officially as well as the They were surely as patriotic, and if; full Justice were done he wondered whether the graves of the wives and mothers of soldiers ought not to be decorated on Memorial Day as well as the graves of the soldier boys themselves.

He announced that he had just heard that the local chapter of the D. A. K. had traced out seventeen Revolutionary soldiers whose graves were In cemeteries in New Britain, and these were to be specially noticed. One of these heroes was the grandfather of Llinu Burritt.

Mr. Jump said in part on the subject: "One of the most fascinating personages In American life today is the veteran. There aren't very many of him and his number is growing smaller each year, but where-ever he lives, he scatters if he be true to his high calling an Influence abroad over the lives of all the boys In the neighborhood, and that particular kind of influence is exercised by no other individual. This being so, how sad to have the high calling of the old sol dicr prostituted by those who use it to reap a reward of admiration to which they are not entitled." There are veterans who lie about the war, who play fast and loose with the of their military career, who claim to have been in battles where they never were, who narrate adventures that never happened as being their own. From one point of view these men are to be pitied, snatching at an added glory, not realizing that the glory of having served one's country honestly and faithfully is enough for any mortal.

But from another point of view these men are blameworthy, for they are making contemptuous that character in American life who ought ever to remain sacred, the old soldier. There are those who laugh at the veteran, but the reasons for their dlsesteem come not from the real veterans, from the heroes in faded blue who offered their lives at their country's call; rather they have In mind the big-mouthed talker, the teller of war-tales who frequently never was in real engagement but who struts about as though he had ended the whole war by his own individual efforts, aided, to be sure, at some slight points, by U. Grant and Abraham Lincoln. These bogus veterans are a curse to our American life, for they poison the founts of patriotism by a dishonesty that creates suspicion everywhere. Such men you despise as much as I do.

Let us pray God to deliver us from their presence. "The first drum-beat of the new patriotism summons a man to a sentiment for his country which includes the whole country, hot one section of The second drum-beat of this new patriotism summons a man not so much to put on a uniform and carry nag as to put on overalls and roll up his sleeves and get busy working for very good cause, and the last drumbeat of the new patriotism summons us into that state of mind where we seek no further reward for our public service than the consciousness of having done our duty and helped on our country's good. One of the unexpected outgrowths of the Civil War was the pension bureau. Through the grateful land has testified to its gratitude for noble service rendered. But now everybody admits that the pension system has become the home of grave abuses.

Corrupt men have used it for their own profit. So devious has come to be the workings of this system that a hostility has grown up against it which would never Mve existed if it had remained true to its original ideals. But least of the unfortunate features connected it has been the taint of commercialism which It has given to what would else be unselfish service. By patriotism seems to have achieved for Itself a market value. It looks a though an easy way to get a steady income would have been to enlist in the army.

Today we see men getting Py for having been patriotic. Second thought corrects the first impressions; we realize that soldiers did not 'or tne sake of the pension in the eld days, for they did not know that a Pension was coming to them; but the 18 done nevertheless.

May ii. Burglars were busy In Windsor Saturday night They made attempts to enter two residences and succeeded in entering a third. They began operations about 9 o'clock by trying to gain entrance to the residence of Lawyer Henry A. Huntington on Windsor Green. A man climbed on to the veranda roof on the south side of the house and cut out a screen from one of the windows.

His operations attracted the attention of Miss Ida nurse at the Huntington home, and she went to the room where she heard the noise, bellevelng that something had happened to Mr. and Mrs. Huntington's year and a half old boy. On entering the room she heard the man at the window and turned on the electric lights, whereupon she saw the man. She grabbed the hoy from his crib and carried him to another room.

Then she secured a revolver and returned to the room. Her appearance with a revolver evidently frightened the Intruder away, for he clambored off the roof. Meanwhile, Mrs. Huntington, who was in front of the house with other women watching the comet, heard the noise and she ran to the room. She relieved Miss Neuhaus of the revolver and stood guard while the latter went to the telephone and notified the central office and the operators there quickly got in touch with Mr.

Huntington, who waa busy at the town hall and Deputy Sheriff Edson A. Welch was quickly notified. On reaching the house it was found that the burglar had Climbed tn mnf the conductor pipes. wniie the local authorities were investigating at the Huntington home the burffinr. their work.

Harvey saw the flash or the light and screamed and the burglars beat a hasty retreat. From here they went to the homm of Rev William B. Cary at the Stony Hill. A man got on to the roof of the veranda and was trying to open a window, when Miss Anna Cary was awakened. She called her father, who came with revolver, but during the interval the man had Jumped off the roof.

(Special to The Courant.) Bristol, May 21. A freight wreck occurred at 5:30 this morning at Casey's crossing, a mile north of the center of the town.

The first section of east bound freight No. 1,832, In charge of Conductor Charles Kenyon. Engineer J. C. Walling and Ftremas H.

E. Stone, was coming down the grade west of Bris- tol at. a good rate of speed. There were nineteen -cars in the train, all of them loaded with anthracite coal. Just as the locomotive had crossed over the North street crossing the flange of one of the front wheels of car number twelve from the engine broke off and threw the car from the track.

This car dragged seven or eight others from the tracks before the train could be stopped. This spread the rails In such a manner that they finally gave way altogether. Before the locomotive was finally stopped fifteen gars had been thrown from the track and several were badly-smashed. All were of the "gondola" type of coal carrying cars, and all except four were made of 1 CITV PRESSURE ONLY. THROWN other four being similarly concentrated into another large nozzle.

Different s.zod streams were played, sometimes one. sometimes two together, the pressure readings at the hydrant and nozzles noted and calculations made as to the amount of water used and the friction loss In the hydrant. Two good szed streams were tried at first and they carried up to the cornice of the Travelers building, the tallest building in the city, while a single heavy stream rose a few feet above the cornice. It was not an effective, fire stream at that height, but it showed that the hydrant was going some to give such a stream. Ten combinations were tried and at one time over 1.800 gallons a minute was let loose from the hydrant Just as a capacity test, the two nozzles used being the largest on hand.

The pressure then dropped nearly a third, rendering the streams weak. i ABOVE CORNICE OF TRAVELERS BUILDING. HYDRANT STREAM WENT TO TOP OF TRAVELERS. Some more stunts with hydrant pressurewere tried on Main street early Saturday morning, before there was traffic enough to be interfered with, and good results were obtained under the circumstances, though not as good as obtained on the Boulevard couple of months ago, because the hydrant used Is smaller than that on the Boulevard. All three chiefs of the fire department were on hand.
