Notice of funeral hereafter. OLD 47TH IN BATTLE; CASUALTIES LIGHT, WRITES LT. H. E. FINN 53d Pioneer Inf.

in Recent Drive to Victory--Germans Didn't Wait for Bayonets. The old 47th Regt. of Brooklyn, now the 53d Pioneer has been action on the other side and has been a factor in one of the recent big American drives against the German lines. This was disclosed today in a letter from Lt. Harold E.

Finn of the 63d Pioneer to his mother. Mrs. Maude C. Finn of 658 Flatbush ave. The letter, given out by the young officer's father, Police Lieutenant Frank Finn of Police Commissioner Enright's staff, gives the first definite word of the old 47th since it arrived overseas late in August.

Lt. Finn, in his letter home, does not make clear where the 53d Pioneer Inf. is or just what was the battle in which it took part, He states merely: "As you no doubt read in the papers over there there was a big American drive over here, and we were in It sure was a great victory." Aside from this, there is reassuring news for Brooklyn mothers who have sons with the 53d Pioneers. Lt. Finn states that "the casualties were lighter than we expected, mostly being caused by the artillery.

We certainly were pretty lucky." This report that the 53d Pioneer contingent has been in action has much of a surprise in it for Brooklyn. It had been generally assumed that the 53d must be in training or might be engaged in guard work the same nature as that recently reported for the 2d Pioneer which was created around the skeleton of the old 14th Regt. of Brooklyn. The 53d Pioneer force was at Wadsworth, Spartanburg, S. until August.

It remained behind after other units of the 27th (New York National Guard) Division had sailed for the other side. Its forces had been pretty well thinned out by many drafts to other units of the 27th Division, and there were probably not 500 of the original Brooklyn men left to the regiment, the old 47th, when was decided to re-establish it as the 53d Pioneer Inf. Its ranks were filled up largely with drafted men and reached France the last week in August. Lt. Finn, whose letter now gives the first word of the activities of the unit in France, is 21 years old.

He was the youngest lieutenant graduated from Plattsburg. is a graduate of the Brooklyn Law School. Before joining the colors, he was connected with the law firm of former Justice Morgan J. O'Brien. This is his letter: "At the present time we are in' what they call a rest camp for a few days, and expect to move in a couple of days.

"As you no doubt read in the papers over there, there was a big American drive here and we were in it. It sure was a great victory. The Germans did not wait for the bayonets but took it on the run when the Americans went after them. We finally reached a place that the Germans used for a 1 headquarters. It was in the woods and they had bowling alleys, pool and billiard tables, pianos, upholstered furniture.

with plenty of electric lights. By the look of the place they thought they would live there until the end of the war. "All during the drive we never took our clothing off and slept only about two hours out of each 24. The casualties were lighter than we expected, mostly being caused by the artillery. We certainly were pretty lucky, and with the help of God and the prayers of our friends in America we hope the luck will keep up." 77th Division Fought Like Veterans, Says Hungerford.

The 77th Division, composed of New York troops, received warm tribute yesterday from Arthur E. Hungerford, special agent of the Y. M. C. A.

overseas forces. just returned from six montha in Europe to enter the army. Mr. Hungerford, formerly city editor of the Baltimore Sun, was attached to the 77th during two months of its greatest activity. The division is unusually cosmopolitan in character, he said, and not only is there great variety of nationality, but also there is wide diversity of social position--boys of wealth, unaccustomed to hard work: clerks, waterfront workers, doing team work.

He declared that he saw them weather gas attacks, bombing. bombardment and liquid fire with the indifference of veterans, at Baccarat in July, though at the time they were little more than novices. When American advance was halted at the Vesie by the superiority of the German position and the heavy rains, they lay in sandpit graves without trenches, for three weeks, under constant shell fire and gas attack, and with scarcity of water, but their spirits were undaunted. When the French got the Aisne, thus relasing them, they were up at once, ready and eager for the attack. Mr.

Hungerford has brought the seat of the plane in which Quentin Roosevelt lost his life on July 14 and will take it to Oyster Bay today. He deplored the effect of the peace talk in raising unwarranted belief that peace is close at hand, asserting that the situation, from a military point of view, gives it no substantiation. He predicted that the war will terminate about a year from now. The Germans, he said, have created in America the "pernicious attitude that the war is waning." and he aded, concerning the American soldiers, that "they want nothing but DEATHS WEINBERG-On Wednesday.

The committee working in his behalf includes prominent men and women of the district.

The women are Mrs. Minnie Wichman, leader of the women; May Lowenthal, Lottie G. Cornell, Margaret Kealey, Clara Raymond, Annie I. Corley, Margaret Quirk, Catherine Ellie, Mary G. Ochsenreiter, president of the Bath Beach Branch; Alice Morrissey, Ella Wacke, Anna Nash, Marguerite Guirardot, Euphemia Thompson, Loretta Bagley and Genevieve McDonald.

The Fourth Congressional District Republican, including the Third, Seventh and Eighth Assembly Districts, held meetings in which practically the same speakers took part. The women took an active interest in the Seventh and Eighth, and planned the one for the Eighth. Miss Helen Varick Boswell, vice chairman of the New York County Republican Committee, and a pioneer among women in politics, speaking for party candidates, was the principal speaker except at the Eighth, where Senator Calder made a brief address. Mrs. Jessie McGahie, assistant secretary of the Kings County Republican Committee, and recently president of the Eighth Assembly District Women's Organization (now merged in the district club), presided at the Eighth A.

D. rally held in P. S. No. 6.

The influenza prevented a large audience, but the array of "talent" was formidable. The speakers, most of whom went on to the other districts, included Senator Calder, Miss Boswell, Mrs. Kate Farrar Southmayd, candidate for Senate: Frederick S. Martyn and Judge Marcus B. Campbell, candidates for County Judge; William Boardman, Deputy State Controller, and Ralph W.

Bowman, candidate for Congress. Senator Calder said in part: "I have always felt that somewhere in America there should be a sort of American forum, where men could discuss freely national questions. I feel that we have found that forum in the United States Senate." In showing the part New York State is allowed in the present Congress, he said "New York has only two chairmanships, one for acoustics and one for the disposal of useless papers. The thirteen Southern States have the entire Democratic chairmanships, although New York State paid into the Federal Treasury more than three times what those States have during the last year. We have a right to protest against this discrimination." Mr.

Boardman made A concise statement of the differences in legislative and financial measures between the present administration and the previous Democratic terms, The Third A. D. meeting was in the clubhouse, 105 Rapelyea with the rooms well filled. Miss Boswell did not speak as the meeting was late in beginning and her other engagements prevented her waiting. At the Seventh there was a real crowd, and many women.

After the speeches, a motion was made and unanimously carried to pledge every one present to vote the straight Republican ticket. The Woman Suffrage Party of the 11th held 2. non-partisan political meeting last evening in the Bedford Branch of the Public Library on Franklin ave. to give the prospective voters of the district an opportunity of hearing the local candidates. Mrs.

Julia N. Perkins presided. John B. Johnston, Democratic nominee for Congress, spoke. The other speakers were: Daniel Lyons, Democratic candidate for the Assembly; George A.

Green, Republican candidate for Congress: Charles Murphy, Republican candidate for the Assembly, and O. Grant Esterbrook, Republican nominee for Justice of the Municipal Court. None of the Socialist candidates who were expected appeared. EDGE HITS AT PRESIDENT. Criticises 1 Him for Entering New Jersey Politics.

Trenton. N. October 24-Governor Edge last night issued a statement criticising President Wilson's action in urging support for the Democratic Senatorial candidates in New Jersey. "I had hoped," said Governor Edge's statement, "that when President Wilson advised that politics be adjourned the gavel had fallen on politics in the President's home State at least. regret that the President has seen fit to enter into the State campaign.

From the standpoint of personal advantage, perhaps, I should welcome it. History may repeat Itself. Who knows?" GOOD JOBS FOR MEN AND WOMEN Are listed every day in The Eagle's "Want Ad" columns. Look the Opportunities Over. POLICEMAN STOPS M.

Towne: Dear Member-Do you want to spend a good golf day? Do you want to see our golf course extended? Do you want to help bring this about? Can you lift sod? Can you lay sod Can you haul sand?

Report at Tower Hall at 9 a.m. in your old clothes. Prepare yourself for a full day's work. Consider this a golf date. No real golfer ever breaks a golf date! The club force worked in two relays, the morning and afternoon shifts.

Without any desire to make invidious comparisons it may be stated that the hardest workers in the morning force were former President Paul R. Towne, J. W. Barnes, Dr. Graham and B.

H. Seward. Their laboring attire also a hit. Suggested Bill Hart. a big rock.

Club Professional Sang. To add to the solemnity of the occa- Perhaps the most impressive was that of Mr. Towne, who at a distance of 20 feet looked like a cross between a Panama Canal digger and William S. Hart after one of his saloon fights. Shortly after 9 o'clock the morning shift, marshaled by Mr.

Towne, marched from the club at the foot of Bay 13th st. to that part of the golf course to the east of the present long 15th hole. The present work has to do with lengthening the 16th hole and putting in a new tee for the 17th, to make two shotters of both these holes. The momentousness of the occasion duly impressed Dr. Graham who, on arrival at the scene of their labors, suggested that Mr.

Towne, in appreciation of his years of effort to have the course lengthened, be allowed to turn over the first dirt at the base of sion Ed Galligan, the club golf professional, was asked to sing. Mr. Galligan fifteen years ago was first tenor in the Liverpool cathedral and a voice comparing favorably with that of Francis A. Weisman, the sweet singer of the Wheatley Hills Golf Club. Doffing his hat, Mr.

Galligan touchIngly sang these words to the tune of Uncle Then hang up the driver and the clee-ee-eek, Take down de shovel and de rake, For there's no more golf For the M. and F. bunch Till we work on the new holes this week. Under the inspiration of this song the big rock was speedily rolled out. Then occurred the dispute already referred to.

As the big hole was disclosed, Dr. Graham remarked: "Say, that puts me in mind of one of Joe Grant's divot holes." Mr. Towne Resents Slur. "Sir," said Mr. Towne, sternly, "out of respect not' only for the exalted office Mr.

Grant now holds as president of our club, but also for his very fine golf, I cannot permit such a slur to pass unrebuked." Dr. Graham insisted he had played with President Grant enough to know. Finally Mr. Towne raised his spade to illustrate the beauty of the president's swing. Patrolman George Schaefer, who is captain, sergeant and roundsman of the M.

and F. police force, seeing the iron raised menacingly, rushed upon Towne, and throwing his arms around him, cried: "Gentlemen, let's have no bloodshed." honor of his pacifist intentions Shaefer was at once put to work. Golfer Nearly Stopped Work. The appearance of Dr. Adams on the course with a bag of clubs threatened to stop all work, as each "laborer" asked Mr.

Towne to be allowed to try just one shot to the new green. But the permission was refused and Dr. Adams was given five minutes to quit the links under threat of being put to work. The morning bogey at which this afternoon's shift is shooting was established by Mr. Barnes.

He worked 10 minutes and 12 seconds without stopping. Mr. Seward almost beat this with 10 minutes and 8 seconds. Big Afternoon Force. A larger representation turned out for the afternoon work, owing to the report by Professional Galligan that nothing is so good for developing the wrists for mashie pitching as work with the shovel.

The most prominent in the afterlunch detail were President Grant. Club Champion John W. Faison, exChampion C. S. Jacobus and C.

D. O'Brien. Mr. O'Brien made a new course amateur record of 66, Monday, but was as modest as anybody else. The afternoon start was delayed a trifle when Mr.

Jacobus found with a mashie instead of a spade. When called down for trying to evade the work he excused himself by saying: "Oh, I thought you wanted us to do some digging."

and Irving has resigned, and on Sunday morning will preach his farewell sermon, his subject being Minister and His People." During the last two years sickness made it impossible for Dr. Brundage to carry the full weight of active church work, and for the last year the Rev. Joseph A. Kyle has been associated with him in his work. At a meeting of the congregation Dr.

Brundage felt compelled to resign as minister of the church. to the deep regret of the congregation, who have grown fond of him in the years of their association together. By unanimous vote of the congregation, the associate pastor, the Rev. Joseph A. Kyle, was invited to become minister in charge of the church, Dr.

Brundage to be pastor emeritus. Mr. Kyle will take charge November 1. CHURCH MINSTREL ENJOYED The minstrel and vaudeville entertainment by the young folks of St. Brigid's Church, given last night.
