“ SUES MARTFORD CHURCH. Claime Salary $210 is Dus Him " Under Agresment. “The suit of the Rev. Walter Gay, pastor - of Grace Memorial Baptist church in this city, ly pastor of the Union (celored) Baptist church, Hartford, to recover $210, which he claime is due him from the church as the amount allowed him under the customary three months’ netice agree- ment, which ha claims wes In force at the church when he resigned, owing to the action of the church members, last April, was gevmln before Judge Coats ‘ednesday morning in the court of common pleas at Hartford. Barbour is atterney for Mr. Gay, and h2 is opposed by John ‘W. Coogan, who represents the church. Most of the morning was spent in ar- guments een the attorneys as to the admission of portions of evidence and the rulings of Judge Coats ex- cluded most of the sensational features which are suppesed to be connécted with the case in cennmection with the resi; tion of Mr. Gay. ‘The complaint alleges that Mr. Gay became pastor of the church in 1900. and that in July, 1909, his salary of $720 a vear was raised to $840 a year. The trouble between the church and its pastor occurred in the following April, and Mr. Gay alleges that he was forced to_resign without notice and that the rules of the church: require that he should have three menths. He claims the amount due for this tima. The case was not finished Wednesday. Has Been to Mexico. ‘William Buckley is at his home in this city fer a short visit. He has Just returned from a triy of thirty days to Mexico and Cuba for a spe- cialty company at Buffalo, N. Y., where | he is employed and has been located for the past twe years. He is export manager of the large company. All but a week was passed in Mexico, and 200 shots were fired at one train on which he was a passenger. He says that many of the stories about the Mexican trouble are greatly exagger- ated. He says that American trade in Mexico is ‘good. ©On the three story addition to the Backus hospital all the exterior work has now been completed, so ‘that the scaffolding was removed this week. Plastering was begun on Wednesday, having been delayed somewhat while waiting for the plumbing to be finish- ed, but this has now been done and the interior fitting can be proceeded with throughout. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Socialism Will Destroy the Home. Mr. Editor: This is one of the charges often brought against social- ism by people who do mnot really un- derstand what socfalism is; but this is nevertheless true with regard to certain kinds of homes. Where so- cialism has the power, as in Milwau- kee, and many cities in Europe, it is already - destroying the old, worn-out, vermin infested, damp, dark and dirty tenements that have been called homes by many of the working class, in the cities, and the shacks that were called homes by the workers in the mills, mines and other industries; and put- ting in their places clean, dry, light, and airy dwellings; and selling or renting them to the workers at cost. Socialism 1s also destroying the homes or dens of the robbers and grafters; and as fast as soclalism has the power it will destroy the dens of the gamblery and food speculators, in Wall street, and every other street where such dens exist. And the dens where our food is adulterated and poi- soned, and all the homes or dens where poisonous alcoholic beverages are made and sold, And it will de- stroy all the dives of prostitution, and the dens of the white slave traffic. This it will do by making conditions hetter for the, working class, by plac- ing women on an equality with men, giving them all the political rights that men have, and paylng them the same wages that men are paid for the same work; by furnishing employment for all who want work, reducing the working hours and paying them good wages. By doing away with child labor and by improving and extending the school system so that every child of school age can be accommodated. These things and many others in the same line will be done; and are now being done, by the sociallsts; and it i easy to see that under these condi- tions young people will naturally mar- rv and make homes such as the world needs, and such as sociallsm will fos- ter, but never destroy.

Zabriskie Found Sail a Long One but Finds Everything to His Liking. ds of Luther K. Zabriskie of , who recently entered the American’ consular service,- have been receiving postals from him telling of the delighitful country he is located in, being at the American consulate gen- eral at Callao, Peru. Writing to friends of his trip and location, he says: Here is am, at last, in the land of Peru. The entire trip to this far-dis- tant country was exceedingly pleasant, but was much longer than I had thought, and at times was a bit weari- some, especially when the steamer would stop at some uninteresting port for a_considerable time. I saw much that I had never seen before, enjoyed good company all the way down here, nd, all told, had an interesting expe- rience. The sea voyage from New York to Colon was rather rough, but | from Panama to Callao it was simply fin We saw a number of sharks, fly- ing fish, porpoises and a large number of birds that are peculiar to this| ountry. We were able to see San Salvador, and made a stop at Kings- ton, Jamaica. This was a perfect par- adise. with its profusion of = green shrubbery and beauitful flowers, its magnificent cocoanut palms -and ba- nana trees and the lovely sunshine I was often reminded of Hot Springs, Ark. during my stay there. The peo: rle jhere are very poor, and are most- ade up of the negro class. This iz an English province, so English and Spanish are both spoken. Conditions at Colon and Panama are similar to those in Kingston. I. had a splendid opportunity to see the work on the: ssed eanal, and it is simply won- derful. 1 thoroughly eénjoyed my trip: across_the isthmus. ‘Coming down on the racific coast we’'made stops at five Peruvian ports, where we took on sev- eral passengers and a large amount of freight IEvery one of these places were barren and desert like, without a show of vegetation, and did not offer a very inviting appearance. I was thankful to learn that Callao was dif- ferent. morning, and after going ‘through the custom house inspection I at once made my way to the American con- sulate. I was given a most cordial reception by the consul general and his several assistants and I know that I will like them all. I entered upon my official dutias Thursday morning. This work, of course, is all new to me, but I feel confident that I shall like it. Every- one in the office seems to be anxious to help me in every way, and already I am looking forward to a thoroughly enjoyable experience in this place. The consul general had made partial ar- rangements for a room and table board for me with a splendid English fam- ily. The treatment I receive there is A No. 1. The price I have to pay is A No. 1 also—$35 per month. But liv- ing and everything else is unusually high in this place, and I am perfectly, satisfied. 2 £ It would take me a long time to tell you all there is to tell about this place. I will simply say at this time that I am perfectly delighted with most ev- erything I have seen. The city proper is a fair sort of place. The ocean is on both sides, and at night, as I lie in bed, the sound of the waves is as sweet music to my <2ars.
