WoopBuRY. Conn. luly 9Th. lsA.


This has been glorious day for the Wings OF
Woodbury. and the surrounding towns. We only
cxpecteG thousand or 50 people 10 witness the
presentation Of a Prize Banner to the Wings OF
this town, it having givea the greatest increase
over its vote Of 1910 of any town in the State,
when. to the surprise of every body, it was found
that here were over 5000 Wings on the ground,
beside some one thousand ladies. The Banner
was presented in behalf of the Wings of Bristol
by Charles Whittesey, Esq. and received by H.
II. Hotchkiss, Esq. the President of the meeting.
Eloquent Addresses were made by Messrs. W.
+. Robinson, j. F. Babcock, L. &. Peck and
Hon. W. w. Boardman, of Ncw-tlaven, Hon
d. p. TYLER, of Windham, and G. III. llollIster,
Esq. of Litchfeld.


The Iocos held an opposition Convention here
at the same time to counterac the effect OF ours,
but with all their drumming up and offers OF con
veyances to all who would attend, they did not
at anv time have 1890 men on the ground, and
not ono half that number when the Wing Con-
yention was in session. This is the fact, and not
denied by the Locos present, although the Regis
ter o.dav claims or 1000. No accident oc-
CURED. except that The LocoS stand broke down,
which the New.uaven Herald says would not
have occurred if the speakers had held on TO it
