The Central Vermont railroad pas- senger train, due in Kew London at 910 p._m., was delayed in its_arrival here Wednesday night from Brattle- boro ‘because of the falling of six tél- egraph poles to the track about two miles north of Yantic. The poles had ‘been felled by the gale, The train ap- proached the plate unaware of-the danger until close to the fallen poles. The poles were observed by the en- gineer in time to bring the train to a stop without serious damage, although the headlight of the locomotive was demolished and _trivial damage was done through the locomotive hitting one of the poles before the train was brought to a stop. AT BROADWAY THEATER. A Southern Rose. The Thanksgiving attraction at the | Broadway theater was A Southern Rose, at which a fair sized audience was present to witness the four acts of a story of the rebellion. The play was presented by & com of reper- toire caliber, with scenery furnished by the house, and the audience could g2t uo but little enthusiasm over the play.

STEAMER CHELSEA LATE ON TRIP UP SOUND. Heavy Storm Caused It to Lay Up in New Haven Harbor Until Thursday Morning. The steamer Chelsea had a rough trip up the Sound Wednesday night, and did not arrive here until Thursday afternoon, instead of early Thursday morning, ' as scheduled. The storm comp-lied Captain Colberg to put in at New Haven and remain until Thurs- day morning, and he left there about 830 o'clock for the remainder of the trip, which was none too smooth. In accordance with the annual cus- tum, General Manager A. P. Browning presented the agents of the company here and in New London, as well as the captain, mates and engineers and other officers of the line, with turkeys for ‘Thanksgiving. The birds were aboard the steamer Wednesday night, and of course were too late for any Thanksgiving _dinner, but they wiil come in for their share of the dicus- sion later in the week. General Man- ager Browning's sifts were none the less appreciated, however. On Wednesday the government boat which carries the supplies to the forts in the New London district was un- able to land at Terry or Michie, but the wide expanse of water which separated some of the soldiers at ¥ort Terry from their Thanksgiving dinners was crossed Thursday morning, and the steamer Genera 1 Nathaniel Greene docked at Plum Island. 'The fwo tons or more of freight, including material for the dinners of several hundred men, was _put ashore. It was still very rough, but a change of wind to the southward helped somewhat in lessen- ing the fury of the waves and permit- ted Captain Proctor to land some val- uable freight. The turkeys were not spoiled a bit. The ice cream was intact, except that it was harder than wken ‘first packed. The bread, pies, cakes and a score or more of delicacies of various kinds were calculated to be in good condition after a night's storage at the freight shed on the wharf in New London. There were other luxuries encased in glass, which would not spoil anyway unless they were uncorked, and care was taken not to have these frozem. WEDDINGS. Osborn—Hanchett.

Florence Benjamin, the comedienne who is scoring a big hit at the Audi- torium this week, had the right kind of a Thanksgiving remembrance, when an admirer sent up an immense bunch of chrysanthemums over the footlights to her at the last performance Thursday evering. The show played to crowded houses all the afternoon and evening. Hit Behind the Ear.

By mail to any address SMITH The Drug Man, Franklis Square, Nerwich, Cl. noviSd ing in Evening. Usually the three Congregatiorial and the Baptist church in the center of the city have united for the Thanksgiving service, but this year all the churches were invited to unite, and the service was hell in the Central Baptist church. Seated on_the platform with the pas- tor, Rev. P. C. Wright, were Rev. Dr. S.'H. Howe, Rev. G. H. Ewing, Rev, J. I Cobb, Rey E. S. Worcester of this city, and Rev. H. B. Rankin of Noank, all of whom took part in the service, by prayer, scripture reading or_benediction, The sermon was' preached by the Rev. P. C. Wright, who explained that Rev. M. §. Kaufman, who had intend- except where scrvices are always hlld1 ed to take part in the scrvice, had been | called away. Rev. Mr. Wright took his text from David's Psalm, “Give Thanks Unto the Lord,” and said that the Lord was uppermost in David's mind all the time, and his writings and utterances show it. It was during the early days that we first heard of the birik: of the thankful spirit. It was after the first harvest by the settlers that Thanksgiving was first inaugurated, and it was an occa- sional observenge, but gradually be- came a custom, and Is now an annual observance by national proclamation. In the first place it was & siriotly re- ligious observance by a religious body, There i5 now the additional feature of homs gatherings, and a thanksgiving which touches experiences in all things. We. came to it not only with the thought of the blessings, but there are the depressions and hardships. With the past year of depression, the corrup- tion and mine discsters, can we come to this season with a true spirit of Thanksgiving? We come to it with a broader view than when it was first started, and with the totality of the vear's experience. The founders of the custom did not do what they did be- cause they thought they ought to. They founded it on eternal heritage and they did it because they were possessed by the great conviction laid upon the eternal thing, out of a_conviction of their God. God was behind and over their lives. With them the crops didn't depend upon the farming, it was the work of God. God wasn't'a force or influence, but a being With them. Growing _out of that . conviction, Thanksgiving was so invigorating that it sought expression and found it in the yearly observance. Many of us in following the tempo- rary lives that we do should follow the Psalmist, and keep our eyes on God, and it will tend to have.a balancing effect and give us an anchorage. If we would realize that God is back of every purpose we would feel less the strain and anxiety. We need the proper per- spective of God moving men to right- eousness. God’s help gives Is courage in_life's battles. We may be thankful today, for God is not changed. The same God who was Dayid’s God is our God. We are thankful to God for the splendid bless- ings given to us recently, for the vis- jons of larger things and fellowship in the Kingdom of Jesus Christ. God has answered our prayer and made him- self more real. We are thankful for the blessings of the past year and that no great calamity has come to us as a nabion, and that while wrong exists, yet the great mass of the people are moving on to righteousness. Episcopal Service. Christ and Trinity Episcopal church- es united on Thursday morning for a Thenksgiving service, which was held at 10.30 o'clock at Christ church. The rectors of the two churches, Rev. Neil- son Poe Carey and Archdeacon J. El- dred Brown, conducted the service, and the sermon was by Archdeacon Brown. In an able discourse from the text Psalm 92, 1: It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to _sing praises unto thy name, O Most High, he said in part that it is the sorrows rather than the joys that make the deeper impression, so occupying a dis- proportionate place in our picture of life, but events should be viewed as a part of the whole plan, and each deal- ing of God with men has its position in the sum total, although at times we may not b able to see how the parts fit. God’s dealing with men has for its supreme end the moral welfara of man and even through their calamities men are brought to think of God and come nearer in spirit to him. How fre- quently it may be observed that the things most blessed in the result have arisen out of severe calamity. Perhaps one of the chief causes of man’s lack of gratitude to God is be- cause he does not stop to consider and think. It is memory that testifies to the righteousness of God's laws, re- minding us that honesty is the best policy, that right is might, that right makes might, and that right comes right. By memory and reflection we see also the divine mercy of God tak- ing shape as a discipline. A thankful spirit guards against forgetting whence the blessings flow, softens and sweot- ens the disposition, helps us to see God in everything, and inspires in us a warmth and zeal for social causes and missionary enterprises, ripening and ennobling the lives which it touches. Psalmist_says that praise is no private thing. If the man is sincere he feels the impulse fo say so to some- body. Genuine praise is less a duty than a ministry, for true praise never fails to help somebody. God's mercies and beneficences to us are for the pur- pose of making us merciful and bene- ficent. Therefore they ought to be ac- knowledged by liberal gifts and hearts open to other in sympathetic expres- slons. Thanksgiving reminds us that —Special Dinners at Public Institutions—Barrel Burn- Baptist and Christ Episcopal . ‘we are not proprietors in anything, but merely temporary stewards of God. The mentioned several spe- cific things for which we as a nation had reason to be thankful for in the last year. The crops had been two per cent. larger than the year before, and nine per cent, greater than the average for the last five years. There is also a growing evidence that people are insisting more and more upon hon- esty in public office, as instanced by the political housecleahing in New York city. Another cause of thankfulness to be noted Is the fact that there is tak- ing place all over our nation a most remarkable laymen’s movement for the Christianizing of the world. The sig- nificance of this can hardly be estimat- ed, but the larger and more generous support to be given to foreign missions is an assurance that there can be no lack of vitality in a religion that is rising to such a magnificent effort. The year has been notable also in the ex- traordinary amount of individual bene- factions to missionary and other ob- Jects, totalling hundreds of millions of dollars. Surely the consideration of these things gives us cause to echo with the Psalmist “It is a good thing to_give thanks unto the Lord.” The offering for the day was for the City mission of the United Workers. BULLETIN'S TURKEYS GREATLY APPRECIATED. County Home, Rock Nook Home and Sheltering Arms Found Much Ple ure in Thanksgiving Dinners—Spe- cials at Other Institution The large native turkeys which were presented to the County home, Rock Noow Children’s home and the Shelter- ing Arms by The Bulletin for Thanks. giving dinners were thoroughly enjoy-. €d by the people in those institutions and addeq greatly to the pleasure of the special noonday meal.

BARREL EU;N]NG. . Rain Interfered With the Boys’ Fun, but It Was Not Allowed to Present It As usual on Thanksgiving night there were hundreds of barrels burned at the various sections of the city and while there was some trouble getting the wet stacks té start, when they did burn it was briskly and the danger from the sparks was lessened. There were several stacks off North Pear] street which loomed up' prettily, while off Elizabeth street a half dozen poles filled with barrels could be seen for a long distance. Off Washing:on street and off Laurel Hii avenue thers were big fires burning, wh.e on Lamb's Hill and on the East Side there were many other fires burning. Off Elizabeth street a gang had a fire and strings of barrels on Maple's Hill, while in various other localities the small gangs had good sized displays. BOY STOLE MONEY FROM SALEM WOMAN. Constable Stanton Had Him Within a Short Time After He Was Notified— Boy Confessed. According to the story told by him- self, Herman Baker, aged 16, of New York, went into the house of Mrs. Lena Whitaker of Salem and stole $§ and escapsed Thursday. He went in while Mrs. Whitaker hanging out clothes, by w collar, and came out the same He at once started for thi city, and says he took the money so that he could go back to New York.

ALL THIS IS EXPLAINED in doctor books; how undigested food causes gases by fermentation and fomenta- tion in which process some essential fluids are destroyed—burnt up—wasted by chemical action, followed by defec- tive nutrition and ‘he distribution through the ailmentary tract of chemi-~ cally wrong elements and as a conse- quence the stomach and entire system is ved.

A DERANGED STOMACH is the ep- itome of evil; nothing too bad to ema- nate from it but the gas it generates is probably ‘its worst primary effect and the only way to do away with this is_to remove the cause. STUARTS DYSPEPSIA TABLETS go to the root of this trouble. They attack the gas making foods and render them harm- less. Flatulency or wind on the stom- ach simply cannot exist where these powerful and wonder-working tablets are in evidence. THEY WERE MADE for this very purpose to attack gas making foods and convert them into proper nutri- ment. This is their province and of- fice. A .whole book could be written about them and then not all told that might be told with profit to sufferers from this painful disease, dyspepsia. It would mention the years of patient and expensive experiment in effort to arrive at this result—of failures innu- merable and at last success. It would h correctives that enter into this tablet and make it faithfully represent all. STUART'S DYSPEPSIA TABLETS are not alone intended for the sick, but well folks as well; for the person who craves hearly foods asd wants to eat heartily and run n.. risk of bad effects, they act like a charm and make eating and digestion a delight and pleasure. They keep the stomach active and en- ergetic and able and willing to do ex- tra work without special labor or ef- fort. Don't forget this. Well people are often neglected, but the STUART DYSPEPSIA TABLETS have them in mind.
