Hnndgong’ Instrument m‘C Gift of Connecticut After working Friday night and Saturday, the work of setting up the new pipe organ in the Masonic temple was completed Saturday with the ex- ception of the work of tuning and regulating, which will be done today and tomorrow. The organ has been played on, however, and has a beauti- ful tone, the accoustic properties of the commandery room in which it is located being excellent. The organ has been placed in the northwest corner of the asylum of Columbian commandery, being built entirely in the asylum with the exception of the biower, which is in the store room, the electric connec- tions for this having been completed on Friday. The organ is a gift of the Connecticut Sovereign Consistory to the Masonic Temple corporation and occupies the entire corner of the room from floor to ceiling. The case is of cherry to match the furnishings of the commandery room, and in this the makers were very suc- cessful in getting the proper shade. Sovereign Consistory. It is a two man organ with ten stops s'wlt}. ugfi * pneumatic action throughout, with the display pipes of aluminum. The stops are as follows: Grat organ, open diapason, melodia, dulciana, flute d’Amour, swell organ, stopped diapa- son, salcional, aeolite, flute traverso and oboe, pedal-bourdon. There is a full set of couplers and the wind is supplied by an electric motor of one-half horse power. There is a balanced swell pedal, balanced crescendo pedal, swell unison-off trem- elo, six adjustable combination pistons underneath the manuals which affect any desired stop in the organ. The gift is a handsome one and fully appreciated by the corporation. It will be used in the work at the temple and also at the sessions of the Connecticut Sovereign Consistory, which meets here. The organ will prove a great addition to the work of the different bodies. The organ was furnished by H. Hall & Co, of New Haven. FINAL UNION SERVICE OF CONGREGATIONAL CHURCHES Rev. B. W. Bacon of New Haven Preached at Broadway Church. The last of the union summer ser- vices of the Congregational churches was held Sunday morning at the Broadway Congregational church with a good number in attendance. Before the sermon the preacher, Rev. B. W. Bacon, D. D, of New Haven, reminded the congregation that this was the an- niversary of the birthday of Oliver Wendell Holmes and one of the hymns of the great American poet was sung, Lord of All Being. The sermon was a scholarly exposi- tion upon the theme The Simplicity of the Gospel, based upon the text, II Corinthians, xil. 2, I fear lest by any means your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. As his introductory thought Dr. Bacon advanced the statement that in_the first two chapters of Corinthians Paul was warning against the disposition to transform the gospel into a transcen- dental philosophy, but it is the simpli- fication of the gospel that is the need of Christianity. The spirit of brother- hood seems to be in many minds, and the world is crying for Christianity, and this demand for the simplification of the gospel is from both the cultured and the educated classes as well as the masses. The preacher cannot expect a hearing today unless he can make the gospel simple as in the days of Christ and of Paul. There is no longer any need to argue the importance of Christianity. It is hopeless to sneer out of existence this greatest dynamic force of twenty centuries. There must be a religion of humanity. But it is not to be Buddhism with its note of despair. It will not be Mohammedism, for this has no_chance when opposed to Christianity. Yet this coming religion is not to be mere Calvinism or Au- gustinianism. It will be Christianity for that is the only religion that ha: in it the power and potency of the spirit of God. There is no impatience today with the kind of religion that Jesus taught, but with the preachers who cannot make it plain. But that kind of simplification that is needed is no easy matter. One of the greatest of the church historians has answered the question of what Christianity is by reviewing its work actually done In the world. This wag the Pauline way and he an- swered it as Paul did plus 1900 years of history. One of the philosophers has answered it as a philosopher would by extracting the quintessence of Jesus' teachi Jesus simplified and reduced to ed system that had grown up under the synagogues, and these he said were love and trust, a brotherly disposition towards man and a filial attitude tow- ards God. This was his teaching as to duty. And what was his teaching as to destiny? This he solved with the same magic word with which he had solved the other-father. With Jesus the es- sence of the coming kingdom was not in the externals, here or hereafter, but in the disposition of man towards his Dbrother here and his father in heaven. You can sum up the whole message of Jesus as to duty and destiny in three syllables—our father. Se he simplified it and the people who heard him rec- ognized his message. Paul began where the older apostles had left off. Paul's gospel was of his personal experience and the doctrine of the Lordship and divinity of Christ was his message. His definition of Christianity was that it was the power of God unto salvation, and it rested upon his own experience. God en- dorsed the gospel of Jesus through his resurrection. The whole history of Christendom tells us whether Jesus is a power unto salvation and wa don’t need to go_to the remote past for con- firmation. Men's lives have been trans- formed, and the man who sits beside you can tell you whether or not there is a_redeeming Christ, whether he perished there on the cross or whether there is today a living Christ, the pow- er of God unto salvation.

FRENCH SOCIETY HAS ITS ANNUAL OUTING Delightful Time Enjoyed at Poguetan- uck Drawbridge. Members and friends of Lafayette council, No. 307, L’Union St, Jean Bap- tiste D'Amerique, experienced a de- lightful day Sunday at the drawbridge where the annual picnic of the society was held, with a good number in at- tendance, and the arrangements well carried out by the committees in charge. Those whose hard work con- tributed to the pleasant outing were the president of the society, Dr. G. A. Comeau as general chairman, assisted by J. St. Onge, P. H. Ethier. J. B. Caron, L. H. Brunelle, Samuel Guil- beault, Pierre Lessard, J. P. Brunelle and Edward Boucher. After the arrival on the 9 o'clock train at the grounds, there were vari- ous forms of amusement until the petizing Barnes chowder was ser about noon. The athletic features of the day were two ball games between the ‘single men and the married men. One was played in the morning and one in the afternoon, and in both the single men showed they were masters of the ben- edicts on the diamond. In the morns ing game the married men had the bachelors 6 to 0 in the sixth inging, but the single men then put three new players into the game, Bert Caron, Bendett and Gelineau, who turned the tide the other way, and the single men won out, 10 to 9. Manager Racine of the married men protested the game because he ordered his pitcher from the box in the eighth but he refused to_go. For the afternoon game the lineup as as follows Single men—Bendett p, Kiess c, Bus- sey 1b, Gelineau 2b, Hewitt 3b, Barnes ss, L. Caron 1f, M. Caron cf, Mor- iarty, rf. Married men—Ravenell ¢, Gagnon p, Ethier 1b, Mayioux 2b. Pierson 3b, Felix ss, Labrie: 1f, O. Caron <f, Henault rf. The rain broke the game up in the second half of the third inning with the score 9 to 0 in favor of the single men who had landed hard on Gagnon's curves. Features were a home run by Bussey, the work of Felix at short and stops of wild throws by Ethier on first. R. C. Plaut umpired impartially. After a short time; during~ which the crowd took refuge in the pavilion, the rain stopped and the bake was en- joved at the tables set in the grove. While Chet Barnes and his assistants were preparing to spread the tooth- some ingredients of the bake before the hungry feasters, Hon. N. P. Bis- sonette of Bridgeport, state vice pres dent, was introduced as the speaker of the afternoon, responding with an eloquent address both in French and English. The rest of the afternoon was spent in a social way till the return by the 6.35 o'clock train. CAPTAIN HAGBERG RETURNS FROM CAMP PERRY. Connecticut Rifle Team Much Pleased With Their Showing—Captain Hag- berg Second on the Team. On Sunday evening Capt. J. A. Hag- berg of the Third company, C. A. C. C. N. G., arrived here from Camp Per- ry, Ohio, having been away two weeks today. Captain Hagberg did some fine shooting in_the national contest and the entire state team distinguished it- self, much in contrast to the result of the shoot last year. Captain Hagberg's total, 309, was next to the highest made bv the state team, the only one better being made by N. Johnson of New Haven, who made 318. The total score of the state team was and they jumped from thirty-second place last year to four- teenth place this year. The only disappointing feature in the shoot was the fact that they were not awarded the C class trophy. Be- ing thirty-second last year, the team was placed in Division C this year, the trophy for which was a bronze Mara- thon runner and a cash prize of $300, besides individual bronze badges. Al- though they won out in their class and were entitled to this trophy and money, by the rules they were obliged to take the prize in the class above which their score called for. This gave them the prize in B division, calling for $225 cash and individual bronze medals, being $75 less than the first prize in their class. The money was divided among the team members and each received a medal. Their expenses for the trip were paid by the state and they were dismissed at Springfield Sunday, but Captain Hagberg and Captain Wood- ward of Danielson came home by way of Worcester owing to better connec- tions. The trip proved a fine one, but they had some very hot weather. They went and returned by special car attached to regular trains. Because of the tak- ing of fourteenth place this year the team must shoot in Class A next year. In the regimental team shoot Saturday tl‘u- Second regiment team won second place. GREEKS GO HOME. One Goes to Get Bride, While Others Will Join Army. A party of ten Greeks left here by the boat train Sunday night, some of them going back to enMst in the army.

The Fairmount orchestra opened its season Saturday evening in Maher and Kennady's academy on Broadway, giv- ing a_dance, at which there was a fair attendarice or. the first night. The floor was in charge of Prof. Kennedy, ang everybody had a good time. Work on New Buildings. At the new mill grounds work is pro- gressing rapidly. ‘The foundation wall of concrete on the south end is all up, and on the side toward the street the concrete foundation is about half finished. The concrete rlll.u‘l upon which the steel girders will rest are being constructed rapidly, about half of the necessary being al- ready made. On the south end of the grounds and on the street side as far as the concrete foundation is finished the brick work is being done, and window frames set up. The concrete mixer has been moved from the south end of the grounds to the north end, ‘where the concrete work ¢s now being done, The work on the spur track is well underway. To form a good grade from the mill to the main ftrack con- siderable filling in is necessery. Down near the mill and up near the main track the bank is being cut through and graded. The new convent of the Sacred Heart prisa begins to look finished. The outside work is practically com- pleted, and inside the building the plumbers and plasterers have begun. The building has been wired for elec- tricity for several weeks. Part of the cross on the roof has been erected. On the new schoothouse the brick- laying is being pushed as rapidly as posstble.

Four are already put up and the cellars and foundation work of two more are near- 1y comnleted. Ball Games. On Saturday afternoon the Run- awaye met and defeated a nine from the Taftville Athletic club by the closre score of 5 t> 4. The T. A. C. nine might haye tied the score in their half of the ninth but for a very question- able decision by -the umpire, which al- lowed the Runaways to complete a double play, nailing a runner at home for the third out. The game was fast throughout, the features being Kro- Jel's pitching and Hague's flelding for the T. A. C., and a catch back of sec- ond by Richard Pilling for the Run- aways. The batteries were: Runaways, White and Murphy; T. A. C., Krodel and Pilling. The T. A. C. nine is not satisfied with the result of this game and think thet 4f another game is played the Runaways can be walloped. Since the Runaways are of a very dif- ferent opinion, it is very likely that a game will be playead for a side bet. A nine captained by Joseph Roberts journey to Voluntown Saturday and swamped a nine there with the score of 18 to 8. Birthday Party.
