The members receiv- ed holy communion in a body at the 7.30 o k mass. The reception’of the society s held in the evening at the special vesper service at 7.30 o'clock, which was largely attended. The service was celebrated by Rev. James J. Smith. The sermon for the occasion was preached by the Rev. James A. O'Meara of Bridgeport, a former curate of St. Mary's church. Father O'Meara took for his text, These are written that you may be- lieve that Jesus is the Son of God and that believing you may have life in His name. In his 'sermon Father O'Meara dwelt chiefly on two points, has_Christ done to deserve the name? and What has it cost Christ to merit this name? The two points were clearly brought out especially the second which was shown in the thirty years of his private life and the sufferings in the last three years of his public life. In closing he urged the honoring of the holy name that in the end we would receive the bless- ings due us. Quinley-Daniels Wedding. In Preston City, Satnrday evening. Rev. N. B.

Gordon, Abraham Fox and Moses Goldfaden, who are charged with receiving $100 worth of copper wire, which was stolen from the Consélidated Railroad company in March, 1907, by H. C. Gertz and Jake Lewis. Last August the men were tried for the offense and discharged in the city court. Now they are before the court again because of alleged new evidence, and the amount of the wire is fixed at $130. The accused are de- fended by Attorneys W. H. Shields and- C. F. Thayer, while City Attorney Hall is assisted by State’s Attorney Hull. A plea in bar was made in writing by Attorney Shields, which is to the effect that Attorney Hall be barred from bringing the case, - inasmuch as the men were tried and acquitted last Au- gust, and this is but asking that that decisfon be set aside. A written de- murrer was made by Attorney Hall, who claimed the plea was not sufficient and that it be set aside and judgment given. He claimed that the men had not been put in jeopardy and that the court was not one of final jurisdiction. The August hearing was but prelimin- ary, it being only possible to bind the men over or discharge them. The men could have been taken to the higher court on a bench warrant or even to another justice court, had there been one in town, after the discharge in Au- gust. The case was brought again at the suggestion of State’s Attorney Hull. Attorney Shields claimed the case was unprecedented In his 35 years’ ex- perience in the court. He claimed the court could have inflicted a penalty of $200 and six months in jail, and were tried wholly within the court’s juris- diction. ([He thought the superior court did not look upon the offense of the men who stole the copper as very great, as they were only fined $50 and costs. Attorney Hall replied that the action of the other court made no dif- ference and that there is new evidence now in this matter. The Case Against Three Junk Pealers Come Up for the Second Time—Four Lawyers Interested in Matter, Decision Being Reserved. Judge Brown asked for a full sion of the matter, claiming that it his first case of this kind in his long experience; that he knew of and Justice should be given all and no man placed in _jeopardy. Judge Brown asked State's Attorney Hull regarding the matter, and the lat- ter stated that such caszs are few, but an Old Lyme justice once sent a man to jail for assault after being charged with intent to kiil. After serving his time the accused was arrested on a bench warrant and sent to prison on the charge “to kill.” Attorney Thayer stated that he had been called into the case but the night before, but inquired if a new trial would have been asked if the men had been found gulity and fined. He main- tained the court was right. State’s Attorney Hull informed the court that the matter had come to his attention through men in the interests of the Consolidated road. A bench warrant had been considered, but he preferred to have the matter take its regular course in view of tha fact that there is an old and capable lawyer as judge of the city court. If it had been a justice court, in which law was not as well understood, other action would have been taken. There are few authorities on the matter and In view of that fact Judge Brown stated that he desired time to consider it. It was agreed that briefs would be filed within a week with Judge Brown and that the decision will be delayed until March 1st, inasmuch as State’s Attorney Hull is now en- gaged with the criminal session of the superior court. The matter was heard by many as- sembled in the court room, there being many witnesses also for both sides. Attorney Shields stated that he had twenty witnesses. The case has at- tracted much interest and Detective Hazelhurst of the New Haven road has secured the evidence, having run down both of the men who did the stealing and had them prosecuted in ‘Windham end this county. GIRLS’ DETACHMENT, TIERNEY GUARDS, Organized Here Sunday by Brigadier General Lawless of New London. A girls’ detachment of the Tierney Cadets, to pe known as St. Anne's de- tachment, was successfully organized here Sunday afternoon at the T. A. B. building by Brigadier General James J. Lawless of New London, under the auspices of St. Anne's Ladies’ society. This organization, Generg Lawless states, puts St. Anne’s society right up in the front ranks of temperance work for girls in this state, as this is the second soclety of the kind t obe form- ed, the first having been organized about a month ago in Meriden, under the auspices of the first state yice pres- ident. The general also commends the interest of the St. Anna's president, Miss Mary Foley, and the committee who assisted her, the Misses Annie Mc- Guinness, Annie Driscoll, Katharine Donohue and Margaret Bresnan. They were all present at the meeting Sunday afternoon, when assistance was also rendered by Walter G. Casey, past president of St. Mary’'s society. The detachment starts with a char- ter list of eighteen, which was consid- ered a good number to have present in view of the stormy afternoon, and as many more members as possible will be added at a meeting to be held next Sunday. The following officers were elected: President, Harriet Sherry; first vice president, Bessle Fitzgerald; second vice president, Mildred Harrl- gan; recording and financial secretary, Cathrine Tracy; corresponding secre- tary, Jennie McVeigh; treasurer, Mar- garet McCaffrey; sergeant at arms, Margaret Smith. The buttons of the Tierney Cadets were distributed to all, and General Lawless explained the principles of the organization, which gives its members tha pledge to abstain from liquor and tobacco, also to prevent these sins in others as much as possible, and to dis- countenance their use in society. Need- lework will, be taught the girls, and they will be given instruction in drill- ing. As the closing feature Sunday afternoon General Lawless put them through a short drill, with which they showed themselves much pleased. RECEIPTS OVER $22,000. Magnificent Year’s Effort by Pastor and People of St. Patrick's Parish— Church Redecorating Cost $11,000— Rev. Hugh Treanor’s Annual Report, Sunday, at St. Patrick’s church, the epistle of the second Sunday after @piphany was read, Acts iv:6-12, con- cluding: For there is no other name under heaven given to men, whereby we must be saved. It was the feast of the Holy Name of Jesus; and at the different masses the members of the congregation, standing, renewed the pledge to abstain, God helping them, for the coming twelvemonth, from the sin of cursing, swearing, ob- scene language and the irreverent use of the name of God and of His Divine Son; also to use their influence to lead others to abstain from this sin, At the three masses the tor, the Rev. Hugh Treanor, read his annual rqport, which was an indication of the gnificent effort of pastor and peo- ple during the year just ended The receipts were over $22,000; and al- though the redecorating of the church amounted to over $11,000, and there were repairs and improvements requi ing extraordinary expenses, the par- ish ig entirely free from debt, with the exception of two notes amounting to about $7,500, which will soon be met. During the year $1,592 was expended for the poor; and in this department of parigh work Rev. Father Treanor stated that he had had most valuable aid from the Catholic Woman’s club. The services were well attended, in spite of the storm. During the high mass, at the offertory, Roderick F. Sullivan sang an “Ave Maria” with customary smoothness of tone and nicety of phrasing. Cadets Have Drill. In T. A. B. hall Sunday afternoon Company B of the St. Mary’'s Cadets, Tierney Guard, held their regular meeting.

August Pearson, who recently re- signed as overseer of the carding de- partment of the Shetucket mills, where he had held the place for sev- enteen years, was given a most en- joyable surprise on Saturday evening when about seventy of his help there called at his home, No, 611 North Main street, to show their esteem for their former boss. The visitors were completely unexpected, but the genial host knew exactly what to do, for there have been numerous occasions before in the thirty years in which he has been an overseer when his help have favored him with the same kind of surprise parties. In the course of the evening John Heibel spoke the sentiment of all present in giving Mr, Pearson a neat sum of money, Mr. Pearson respond- ing appropriately, and others also speaking. The evening was filled out with music and refreshments, making a social time long to be remembered. Before coming to the Shetucket mill, Mr. Pearson had been overseer at Grosvenordale, and at Crompton and Centerville, R. I, and had established a reputation for always having the in- terests of his help in mind, while also Xm:king out for his employers’ inter- ests. NORWICH TOWN. Rev.

Congregational Pastor Speaks Characteristics of Each. on At the First Congregational church Surday morning Rev, George H. Ewing took for the children’s sermon Proverbs 30:19, The Way of an Eagle in the Air. His other text was John 10: 2, He that is a hireling and not the shep- herd. Rev. Mr. Ewing compared tns hireling and the shepherd; often the hireling is not watchful and something carries away one of the lambs, but we find the shepherd always watchful, for he is a partner and owner and there- fore takes more interest that none go astray. The Christian life is a motive life dominated by a purpose. There are always those who get and.those who give. The hireling spirit looks forward to becoming rich on wages, but we find this is quite as rare as in the spiritual world. Sin pays wages and the wages of sin is death. Christ does not pay us eternal life as our wages, but freely gives it to us. It is the gift of God and cannot be bought. At the morning service Miss Helen Wood Lathrop of Columbus, O., was heard, singing very pleasingly the so- prano solo parts, and also at the offer- tory selection. Miss Lathrop is the guest of her g-andmother, Mrs. Jabez Lathrop, of Washington streer. Epworth Lsague Meeting. The Epworth league meeting was conducted on Friday evening by Miss Marion Randall and Rev. Jerome Greer, Miss Randall opening the meet- ing, following which Rev. Mr. Greer took charge. The topic for the even- ing was How We Find the Father. The pastor introduced Rev. Edward Hunt- Ington Smith of China, who spoke briefly, telling of the great transforma- tion of those in China when they find the Father. The meeting was in part a continuance of the special services which have been held. The closing prayer and benediction was given by Rev. Mr. Smith. There was a good attendance and much intersst mani- fested in the meeting. Birthday Celebration, On Saturday Master Huntington Smith entertained a few of his little friends in honor of his fourth birthday, A very enjoyable afternoon was spenut | by the little folks, eleven sitting down to a table of dainty refreshments.

If you wheeze or sneeze, hawk or spit, snuffle or blow, something is the matter with the membrane of your re- spiratory tract, and you need Hyomei. And you need Hyomel because it will cure you of any catarrhal or in- flammatory condition that exists. It isn't a stomach medicine, or spray, or douche, but a very pleasant, healing, antiseptic balsam, from the eucalyptus forests of Australia. You breathe this balsamic air through a small, hard rubber inhaler, and it reaches every nook, corner and crev- ice of the membrane, and promptly kills the catarrh germs. The Lee & Osgood Co. will sell you a complete Hyomei (pronounced High- o-me) outfit for $1.00, on the money- back plan. “The use of Hyomei cured Mr. Cut- ler of catarrh in 1904. He has stronely endorsed the use of Hyome{ in many instances, and we are glad to go on record regarding this marvelous ca- tarrh cure, and endorsing its use."— Mrs. A, Cutler, 201 Post Ave, Battle Creek, Mich.,, Oct, 12, 1908, Ymnfiydb&cckiidm".
