Ewing took as his first text Job 38:30, speaking to the boys and girls of how we see the beauty of the Lord in the works of his hand. | Rev. Mr. Ewing’s second text was | from John 14:6, T am the way, the truth and the life, no man cometh unto the Father but by me. Jesus never oned his way, but when occasion demanded He could assert himself as no other man ever has. The words of | the text are full of movement and the pri Christian life is a journey and the | movement is a definite goal. Jesus is the only and sufficlent way. Man is the only one of God's creatures that is always unsatified. ‘The soul is rest- less until it finds its rest m Him Majke Christ the sum and substance of your life. The Christian faith is a erown of glory. Jesus Christ is the one true way to life eternal. At the Methodist Church. On Sunday morning at the Methodist Episcopal church Rev.

Paul Brosofske Broke Through Thin Ice at Spalding’s Pond—Another Boy Rescued. Paul Brosofske, the 15 year old son of Mr. and Mrs. William Brosofske, of No. 565 Boswell avenue, broke through the ice and was drowned Saturday af- ternoon about 3.30 o'clock at Spalding's pond, in Mohegan park. Another boy of about the same age, Dan Willlams, who lives on North street, also broke through the ice just afterwards, but siruggled towards shore until he was reached and pulled out in safety. The body of young Brosofske was recover- ed from the bottom of the pond about 8 o'clock Sunday morning. When found it was by the side of a stump on the bottom and the position of the arms indicated that he probahly grasped tic stump In his drowning struggles and thus kept himself from coming tq the surface. The unfortunate accident, which put an end to skating there for the rest of the afternoon and evening, occurred when tho pond had a crowd of about 300 skaters on it, the ice being about four inches thick and furnishing fine skating except at the upper end near the shore, where there was a stretch of thin black ice which had been newly formed in the last freeze. While ska'.- ing alone, young Brosofeke broke through here and sank after a short struggle. It was suld that he could nit swim. As soon as he was seen in the water a number of men skated down the pond to where Superintendent Duft had a rope which he had provided for such emergencies, and this was throwa to the boy, but fell short and he sank, and did not rife again. Just after he had disappeared from view the Williams boy broke through some distance farther along the shore and the rope was rushed over there to rescue him and planks were also brought which Superintendent Duff keeps in the pavilion, having provided them last week with a view to possible accidents. The Willlams boy couid swim and broke a path through the ice for some distance until he was about ten feet from shore, where a tree trunk was pushed out on the ice and Harry Chounaira climbed out on it and puked young Willlams in. The rescued boy was taken to the pavilion, where his clothes were dried out in front of the log fire. While watching the search a third boy broke through, going only up to his knees. W. Russell Baird with his automobile drgve down to police headquarters for an officer, returning with Policeman Irish, who cleared the pond. assisted vy Supernumerary Sullivan, as it was not considered safe to have a blg crowd gather on the ice while the recovery of the body was attempted. Archibald Torrance, the contractor, offered his team to Superintendent Duff, who came to the city and secured a boat Dwus Calvin Briggs of the Fast Side and grappling irons from Charles H. Butts of Thames street. When these had been brought up to the pond a search for the body began, H. Levitsky and Philip D. Wilhelmi dragging the bot- tom, but without success. This was given up at dark, when the grappling irons were lost. The boy’s father also helped in the search At daylight Sunday morning Super- intendent E. L. Burnap of the water department, Calvin C. Willlams and William Blicq went up to the park with Superintendent Duff and locatea ine body in atout twelve feet of water, just about where he went down. They lo- cated the spot with a stick and Mr. Burnap brought the body to the surface Wwith a hook that Mr.Wiihelmi had made and had brought up to renew the search. The body was taken ashore, whers it was viewed by Medical Examiner Paddock, who returned a verdict of accldental death by drowning and gave Urdertaker Murphy permissicn to take charge of it. Dr. Paddock expressed considerable surprise that there was no koat at the pond and said he thought this was a precaution the park authorities ought to provide besides having the rope and planks on hand. The drowned hoy was one of a fam- ily of mine children, being the fourth, and would have been 15 on the 18th of this month. He was a native of this city and was well spoken of by a who knew him, and much sympathy is expressed for his family. PRAYER MEETINGS Will Be Continued Five Nights This ‘Week at First Baptist.
