TALK ON PANAMA CANAL 
The Panama Canal served as the 
subject of ia very interesting talk one 
/ evening last week before the mem- 
bers of the Manchester club. Clar- 
ence Bayne, who has lived in the 
Canal Zone and seen the actual work 
of digging the canal, and who is now 
going about the country lecturing on 
the subject, was the speaker. He has 
been lecturing in Filene’s, Boston, of 
late, and in making his headquarters 
in Manchester. He talked of the 
mode of living in Panama, of the pre- 
cautions the government has taken to 
guard the health of the workmen, and 
of the wonderful advance made on 
the big ditch. He gave some inter- 
_ esting details as to how the work was 
carried on and the system employed 
in looking after the men doing the 
work. ,

Chief of Police W. Henry Sullivan 
of Manchester “slipped one over” on 
his many friends Wednesday morn- 
ing of this week when he was mar- 
ried to Miss Mary Holmes at the 
parochial residence in Manchester. 
‘though it was surmised the happy 
event would take place sometime 
soon, nobody knew that it had actual- 
ly taken place until Chief Sullivan 
and ‘his bride were well on their way 
to New York for a short honeymoon 
trio. Not even the members of the 
police force knew in advance just 
when the event would take place. 
The ceremony was performed at 9 
o'clock Wednesday morning by the 
Rev. Fr. Mark Sullivan. Geo. 
Holmes, a brother of the bride was 
one of the attendants. An automo- 
bile took the bride and groom 
through the Chebacco woods to Ham- 
ilton, where they connected with a 
Boston train, and from there they 
went to New York. They will return 
Monday and will live this winter in 
Mrs. John Campbell’s house, School

nia.

chester, and was well attended. The 
following officers were elected: 
John L. Chapman, Beverly Farms, 
president; Frank Foster, vice-pres. ; 
Albert Sims, secretary; John Jaffray, 
treasurer; R. A. Mitchell, librarian; 
A, E, Parsons, Wm. ‘Till, Herbert 
Shaw, T. H. Stiles and H. Sanford, 
executive committee. 
The various officers and committees 
made their reports, all of which 
showed the society in a strong, heal- 
thy condition, though there is much 
need of funds before next year’s 
work can be carried on. The flower 
shows the past year did not net any 
increase in the treasury, but on the 
contrary, caused an outlay. 
The next meeting of the society 
will be held next week on Friday 
evening, when Thomas J. Grey of 
Boston will lecture,
