At the First Congregational church ning, the first of a series of evangelical meetings was held. There was a good number in the Spooner chorus choir and in the audi- ence. The ministers present were Rev. C. H. Ricketts, Rev. Edward S, Wor- cester, Rev. Jerome Greer, Rev. P. C. Wright and Rev. G. H. Ewing. The service opened with the hymn, Stand Up, Stand Up. for Jesus; other songs by the choir followed. The 37th psalm was read by Rev. Mr. Ew- ing and prayer offered by Rev. Mr. Greer. A sclo, Jesus Is Standing in Hall, was rendered by George ner. P. C. Wright’s text was, Paul. an apostie of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which s in Christ Jesus. He said: The gospel of our Saviour is an ageressive, inventive and triumph- ant gospel. There should be a pur- pose to win men to know Jesus Christ. hrinking from confessing Christ and from His service looks like distrust- ing God and God's power. God will #ive power to know Him, to titness and to live for Him, power to live the life that now is and that which is to come. People living near this church and in this community feel that you as followers of Christ ought to speak to them. FEach of you should €0 out as the disciple of Jesus Christ, as His embassador and as His wit- ness, into the world. I can only stand and point to Him who sitteth on the throne. and saith My grace is suffi- | cient for thee. At the close of the address the speaker prayed for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on each one present. Many short pravers for the same object followed. The clos- ing hymn was Blessed Assurance. Rev. P. C."Wright pronounced the benedic- tion. n Committees Named.

On Monday Judge Gardiner Greene ‘handed down a decision in the case of Jeremiah J. Desmond, tr. vs. Mary Otis and others, which was completed last week, giving judgment for the de- fendants.’ In his ‘memorandum he set forth his decision as follows: This suit is by the trustee of an express trust against the distributees of the estate of a former trustee of the- fund, and the complaint alleges that the deceased trustee, Otis, commingled the ‘trust fund with his own_property and that the distributees of his estate have received the fund among the as- sets distributed to them, and still have it or have consumed it. The relief asked for i3 a decree requiring them or such of them as have received the estate of the deceased trustee to re- fund to the trustee the fund, and the imposition of a lien upon the realty left Dby the late trustee, in order to secure such refunding, 4pd also damages. The evidence, shows, however, that the trustee never commingled the trust fund with hi§ own property. but in- vested the trust fund in a Minnesota mortgage which he afterwards fore- closed. - The morigage note was made to sald Otis as trustee; the mortgage was not in evidence: and the fore- closure vested the title to the land in “Amos T. Otis, trustee of Mrs. Abby C. Aloro.” It does not mppear that any transfer of title has been since made. The distributees of Otis’ estate re- celved no part of the trust fund. The proof raises from the allegations of the compiaint. If the allegations of the complaint conformed to the facts proved, the plaintiff would not be entitled to a decree requiring the distributees of Otis’ estate to pay the plaintiff the amount of a trust fund which they have not received It the defendants could be required to pay anything, it does not appear what the amount would be. There is no proof of the present value of the land in which the trust was invested. It would not be equitable for the plain- tiff to take that lang and also make the defendagts pay the whole. fund, and, till the vajue of the land s known, it is impossible to state the loss caused by the unauthorized investment made by the trustee. The life tenant, Mrs. Albro, and the plaintff seem to have been guilty of some leaches. The former knew of the nature of the investment at least) as edrly as 1897, and Otis, the trustee, did nét dle unul 1904; yet it does not appear that Mrs. Albro ever attempted to compel the trustee during his life- time to make good any loss occasioned by the investment; and on Mr. Otis’ death in 1904 she presented no claim against his estate, and procured no new trustee to be appointed till about twenty months after Otis’ death, too late for such trustee to present a claim. The plaintiff, the new trustee, waited four years after his appointment be- fore bringing this suit, and did not for years after his appointment inquire of Mr. Otis’ administratrix or distributees about the investment and state of the trust fund. The administratrix was in possession of papers showing the mak- Tng ana state of the investment, which papers were in evidence at the trial. After Mr. Otis’ death the taxes on the trust land remained unpaid, so’ that the land may now, for that rea- son, have become last to the trust. Also the greater part of the deceased trustee’s estate was distributed to his distributees in the form ©of a stock then of value, but now valueless. It would be a greater hardship to them to pay now when most of their assets have disappeared than when they were of considerable value. Judgment is rendered for the defendants. Appeal in Hendrick Case. Notice of peal was flled with the clerk of the stperior court by Attorney Thayer on Monday in the case of R. A. Lowe of Waterbury vs. Philip E. Hen- arick of this city, in which judgment was given the plaintiff to recover the amounts of the two notes with inter- est. The perfection of the appeal will take the case to the supreme court.

Salvation Army Getting Little Encour- agement, Says Ensign Evans. Ensizn “Bob” Evans of the Salva- tion Army conducted an outdoor meet- ing in Bath street just off from Frank- ling street, on Sunday evening, this being the first time the Army has used this spot, for which it has ob- tained a permit from the police de- partment. The ensign was well pleas- ed with the results, finding that a good sized crowd was attracted, resulting in a well-attended _meeting when they marched to the Bath street headquar- ters. Since the ensign has Dbeen here, he stated on Monday, ils meetings have averaged about 1S in attendance. and this week on Wednesday he expects to have Capt. Robert Thorne and Mrs. Thorne here from New London to conduct the meeting, ccording to Ensign Bvans, Nor- wich is proving e particularly hard place from tge financial side of the proposition, #d the returns in the month he has been here have been so small that they have amounted to al- most nothing in the support of the work at headqifarters and the home expenses of the officers in charge. Each corps is expected to support its own work through the contrfbutions that are received in its field, but the en- sign has found the local people he has called upon very unresponsive. But even with this discouragement, he has been able to report eight men influ- enced for better things in the month he has been here, and he is hoping to see the financial side of the Army's work helped out, when the local peo- ple become awake to what it is do- ing here.

WINNER OF 13 RACES Taken from Wrecked Schooner by Horace Allen. e Horace Allen, son of Dr. and Mrs. J. H. Allen of Church streei, spent part of Saturday and Sunday at his home here ,returning on Sunday night to New London to join the wrecking tug Taseo. on which he is a fireman. Among the trophies which Mr. Allen ‘brought home from one of the latest salyage jobs of the Tasco was a horse shoe from over the cabin door of the six-masted schooner Mertie B. Crow- ley, totally wrecked on the south side of Martha’s Vineyard the last week in January. The Tasco was successful in salvaging the big mainmast of the schooner, about 100 feet long, also the anchors ‘and chains, and a varlety of miscellaneous _wreckage. Mr. Allen boarded the wreck and found the gold bowed spectacles of ths captain's wife which he has forwarded to her. From a card which was tacked by his sou- venir horse shoe, it is shown to be from the racer Nepcourt, winmer of 13 races out of 15 at Dublin, March, 1897, and presented to Captain H: keli'of the schooner by Joseph Man- ley of Castle Knock, Phenix Park, Ire- and. One of the best bits of salvage work done by the Tasco was taken up im- mediately atter finishing with the Mer- tie B. Crowley, when the tug went to Handkerchief shoals and pulled off the lumber laden schooner S. G. Haskell and brought her to New London. The Haskell was saved by the Tasco aft- gr the Boston wreckers had descried er. IN THE BANKRUPTCY COURT. Dividend Declared in the P. E. Hen- drick, Wilson and Schwartz Estates.

The Fairchild sisters sing and dance with the proper degree of efficiency. gaining for them rousing applause and clamors for more, while Iry Clouse, the German comedian, makes a big hit. He is one of the best in his line seen here for a long time and kept the house roaring with laughter.

The Olym. ;lux‘h.n & _preliminary_game with C. A five Friday for New DR. KAUFMAN'S SERMON | AT METHODIST CHURCH Proached on The Shepherd’s Psalm— its Popularity, Power and Beauty. Rev. Dr. M. 8. Kaufman spoke Sun day even at Trinity m Baatmly rop:'-m“'m- and s Y, Beauty.” His text was “Thou art with me.” Psaim 23-4. He sald in Davia the -king may eweil be Tecognized as the poet-laureate of huo manity; and, more, the poet-laureate of the kingdom of God. Surely 10 other singer of secular or sacred lyrics ap- proaches the mweet singer of Israel in the myriads of hearts captivated by the music of his verse, In his power to comfort ‘and inspire, ‘and in the su- preme sy city, warmth and beauty of the truths he utters, Nearly every great poet has written oné poem which l’f regarded as his maste Ilo'vnl(-: nest expression, of his lc geniu: This 15 frae of Homer, Virgi, Dante, Milton, Tennyson, Browning. less true of David. Most likely critics would ?leh.!‘.fl)' agr masterpiece, the finest expression of his poetic nature, is the twenty-third Psalm, measured by its popularity, its power and its beauty. It is worthy of note that in the Bible it stands be- tween two other Psalms which strike the deepest depthis of sorrow and the loftiest heights of joy. The twenty- second Psalm opens with the very words of Jesus uttered at His darkest moment on_ the cros “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" Apd the twenty-fourth Psalm closes with these ilant words: “Lift up your heads, O ve gates; even Jift them up ye everlaming doors and the King lory shall come in.” One is term-— ed the Psalm of the Cross and the other the Psahm of the Crown. The former tells of the Good Shepherd who died for His sheep; the latter of the Chiet Shephera who has prepared safe fold for all that e His while this twenty-third portrays the Great Shepherd who ever guards His flock securely and provides for all their wants with royal bountifulness. David himselt had been a erd and un- derstood perfectly well ti intimate re- lations existing een shepherd and sheep. Hence he spoke out of his own personal experiences. For God had ac- tually been to him all that he here declaree. It is truly a wonder Pralm—a glori- ous revelation of one of the ‘hearts God ever made. Its chief charm comes to us in the fact that it is in- spired of God. This gives it unques- tioned autbority. Tt is all true. We may resc assured of this not upo David's testimony alone but hecause God endorses it. Its blessed truth, so full of comfort and cheer, reach us from God's heart through David's heart and life—thus affording us two credible ‘witnesses: both the humand and the di- vine, making assurance doubly sure. So that every one who is recognized by the Good Shepherd as His sheep— every one that knows His voice—may be just as certain as David was that all the claims of this cholce lyric are absolutely reliable. Untold millions of the sincere followers of Christ—the arding, guiding, ever leading divine Shepherd—have felt just as sure as David did that all was well with them and would be well forever. Our text, “Thou art with me,” stands ag the exact center of the Psaim. This is its throbbing heart. God's co fous presence with His children is a rich and strengthening truth. If we exam- ine carefully the construction of this pastoral song we shall find it consists of two parts of nearly equal length— the first gathers about the figure of a shepherd and the sheep of his flock. “The secqnd presents a father and his family. In the former we have'an out- door scene; pasture, valley, paths, still waters, the overarching sky. In the latter we are in a commodious house with host and guest—a banguet room where tables are spread with abun- dance of choicest viands and ‘hearts are overflowing with joy. “The Lord is my shepherd,” and this is a very delightful relationship. But He is much more. He is my own powerful, wise, loving Father. ‘The shepherd idea of God is very significant for the Old Testament peo— ple. * But the Father-conception be- longs to the New Testament era in which Jesus Christ places o much em- phasis upon Go&s actual Fatherhood. The subordinate idea of our being God's guests in this world is charm- ing. I like it. But it is not &0 charm- ing as the deeper, richer, sweeter truth that we are His children—members of His royal family, princes and princess- es of the BEternal King. Gues how- ever well treated, come and go. But the sons and daughters of God's great spirftual home abide forever.
