The unsanitary conditions that pre- vail in the vicinity of Walnug street near the corner of Summit street has become very noticeable the past few sultry days and the stench in that neighborhood has been so announced as 1o be bevond the patience of the vitizens in that locality to stand. Consequently a complaint has been made to the City Health Officer, Dr. W. P. S. Keating, to see if something ©an not be done to. relieve the situa- tion, On the upper part of Walnut street the hill section between Prospect and Summit street, there is no sewer and consequently the houses in the nelgh- borhood of Raynes court, some four five. containing about nine or ten temements are not properly sewered; n . there is an utter lack of such convenience. and as a result most auseating odors poison the alr and tend to breed disease thereabouts.

After the praise service, M. Taylor said “the prayer of life is the essential Nfe of the Christian,” and he urged all to pray as Re: C. McGil- ton, D. D., of Westerly prayed Jas. 4: 2 and 3, was Rev. Harry Tay 1or's text. Many people say God never answers prayer who have no right to say it. Keeping the commandments is a condition of having prayer answered. Do you keep them? No! Then vou have ne right to say God don't answer prayer. Two classes are mentioned in the text, one don't pray at all,. the other pray wrong. They ask amiss. Bro. Taylor told how Jesus taught the principles of praying. Don’t pray fo be seen of men, but g0 to the secret place. Forgive, belleve, be importunate, agree together in wrestling for a bless- ine. A number came forward at the evan- gelist’s invitation and sought God's blessing. Friday’s Services. Human Derelicts was the subject and Amos 8: 7 was the text, “They shall wander from sea to sea,” on Friday morning, when Rev. F. W. Gray of East Hampton preached in place of Dr. Me- Gilton of Westerly, who was called home to a funeral. lsrael was wander- ing from God time after time. So in these days there are human derelicts arifting aimlessly over life’s seas, with- out captain, pilot, crew or port. Here the welcome drops of a shower were heard on the limitad roof of the audi- torium and the people sought its shel- ter and the books of the Methodist Book concern were hustled beneath it. Human derelicts are not only the bums but the so-called liberalists who tie up to nothing, who cut out Christ, the in- different ones who let down the bars to little sins, as they term them. Miss Walker sang Let the Lower Lights Be Burning, Rev. C. H. Van Natter accompanying. Evangelist Taylor said: “Conscience is not infallible, but the word of only. Some say if a man is only in earnest he'll come out all right. It's false. The mote earnsst a man sails ard the rocks, the bigger will be the smash.” Friday Afternoon’s Services. At 1 p. m. Rey. Harry Taylor ad- dressed the children’s meeting in the tabernacle. It was largely attended, many aduits also beins present. At 2 p. m. Rev. Ernest G. Wesley of Providence, a lineal descendant of the English Wesleys, was the preache He read his scripturs lesson and Re L. M. Flocken of Willimantic offered prayer. Mr. Wesley's text was I John v: 10, “The record God gave of his on.”’ Do you know if you do not be- lieve the record you throw the lie in Sod's face? All the truth man needs to know is in this book. Other so-call ed religions have bits of tiruth but lots of error. The Bible has only truth. Cut_Christ from scripture, what would be left? Completeness of life comes only from trusting this record. The 4 o'clock meeting was hld tn the grove and was conducted by Mr: Morgan. The usual 6 p. m. meetings were held in the tabernacle and the Stafford Springs house. Camp Notes. Mrs. M. H. Adams of Groton has been at her cottage, Pilgrim’s Rest, No. 16 Haven dvenue, all summer.

The committee in charge of the ar- rangements has arranged a list of events that is expected to furnish an unlimited supply of interest for the visitors, who, with favorable weather, will be present in large numbers. Passengers on the trolley line are interested in the manner in which the “juice” spits and cracks at points where the streets have been given a Dath with oil. The cars are not more difficult to run because of the oll, the phenomenon is nevertheless one that attracts attention. An agent of one of the large New i York agencles that makes a business of securing knowledge as to the fi- naneial standings of business men has been working in Danielson this w His opinion is that there is a good prospect ‘for Improved conditlons this fall. Loved Man, Not Maid. Even as Jonathan bore an extraor- dinary love for David and_even again as Damon and Pythlas were to each other a source of affection irresistible, so also, it is said, was the degree of devotion that Robért J. Marr, the park pianist, has held for the male friend to whom the letter bearing the signa- ture “Robett” was addressed, a let- ter now held by Attorney Arthur G. Bl This, though it is somewhat astounding, is an interpretation that has been made by readers of the mis- sive, though Marr is still in such a condition that a statement from him relative to why he wrote such a letter is_not obtainable. Inquiry Friday developed the infor- mation that there is mo statute in Connecticut covering attempts at sui- cide_ but under the common law it is regarded as an indictable offence.

Hotchkiss of Waterbury received a letter from the Carnegie Hero cominission asking for information concerning the death of! ¥red Kilroe of 320 Willow street, who was drowned in Lake Quassapaug a few weeks ago while trying to save| the life of George Massicotte. Mas— sicotte was unable to swim, and when Kilroe went in after him the two boys went down together. The mavor will send the commission full details of the tragedy and it is probable that the dead boy's heroism will be fittingly recognized. Yale Honors for Manchester Boy. Percy W.

A ladge in Woodstock avenue is giv- ing Contractor Suzio his troubles in clearing a trench for the sewer pipes. At this_point, near the residence of Simon Farley, the excavation js about twenty feet in depth. In Marshail strest the progress is more rapid. It is expected that by Sept. 15 the con- nections for carrying the sewage from Notre Dame academy and other points near by will have been completed. An Improbable Story. A story that is apparently without foundation has been going the rounds to the effect that a former resident of this city is held in e Canadian town charged with murder_and that he not only admits the charge but also con- fessed to killing one of the men found dead on the railroad tracks here last winter and who in two cases were never identified. Captain Murray, after a thorough effort to trace out the source of the story, promounces it a fake. It is not probable, in the first place, that such e confession as s claimed has been made to Canadian officers would not be repeated by them to local officers, and again the evidence is all againet any othar theory in the cases of the two unidentified dead men than that they were killed by trains. Surveys for State Highways. Engineer F. Walden Wright of the state highway commission has com- pleted a survey of a section of road to ‘be Improved in the town of Canterbury and with his aasistants has returned to Putnam.
