Ricketts Speaks on The Manifested Christ—Notes. Rew. Charles H. Ricketts spoke on { The Manifested Christ at the Congre- /gational church Sunday morning, tak- {ing his text from John 14: 21, “and WALl ranifest mys2lf to him.” He spoke/in part as follows: The fourteenth chapter of the gospel of John is the most peaceful of all our Lord’s discourses. It is entirely free from all warlike imagry. There is no sugla call to arms, no blast of trum- pets, no clash of swords, and not even he ' tread of Christian soldiers ‘marching as to war.” St tide, Rev. There is not evem a trace of the belligerent spirit which, from the standpoint of the higher = Christian revelation, so/defaces the early and the middle ages £ There is no portrayal of the biacker side of the human heart that makes even portions of the blessed Bible re- pulsive. Tt is a triumphant anthom making known in sweetest strains the inner- relationship that subsists be- tween the heart of the Redeemer and It is a symphony in which faith, trust and mutual love ara the attributes. It was the fuller ex- position of the kdynote in the An- nunciation, “on earth peace, good will toward men.” It was a_sort of Holy of Holies in which our Lord unveiled his inmost soul to his followers, as ne saw what was kindly concealed from them, the outline of the coming cross. Nothing reveals the grandeur of our aviowr’s spirit mone forcibly than ‘the circuamstances under which He ad- dressed his followers. The infamous Wwretch who had betrayed Him for the paltry bits of silver had just kissed Him—and with that kiss burning into His 'very soul—a kiss that would have made an ordinary man, under the cir- cumstances, beside himself with rage —=a kiss of mingled shame, mockery an@ hypocrisy—we find Him so for- getful of Himself and His wrongs, 1 #pite of the near approach of Annas and Caiaphas and Pilate, together with the insults, the scourging, the crown of thorns and the crucifixion, as to en- ter into spiritual communion with His disciples. I say in spite of all this and forgetful of all this, we hear Him talk of love as ths highest manifestation of the Divine Personality. In that calm- ness and peace we see the triumph spirit over matter. It is the “sti *f small voice” of peace and love, rather than the voice of hurricanes, or earth- quakes, or even the din of war, that is to conquer the earth. It reminds one of the eternal peace and potency of the sea just beneath the perpetual un- rest of the surface. It is this “peace of God. that passeth all understand- ing” the manifestation: of God in Christ that alone will wear the crown of immortality. It is this manif§sts- | tion of Christ to His followers that I must be familiar with if I am to be | Christlike in all my ways. It is this [ that will “change me into the same image from glory to glory.” As His spirit Tose in majesty above every earthly trial He comforted His disciples with the hope of heavan: The pathway to their future home, thoush strewn 'with thorns. would not be cheerless, because He was the “way. the truth and the life.” Tha nower of such security was derived from the Father who was Almighty. but He and the Father were one. With this assur- ance why should their hearts beo troubled? Aye. why should any hea:t, anywhere on the broad earth, at any time, be troubled, as long as it has the same transcendent and glorious promises? But Christ was to separate His bodily presence from them, and still b2 with them fhrongh the Com- forter, the Holv Spirit whom He would send in His stead. And this brines us to the idea of the continions mani- festation of Christ to His disciples, as recorded in the text. The speaker then brought up two main thoughts: (1) The underlyving conditions on which the manifestatina is made; (a) voluntary action: (b) a mutual understandine:” (2) What does the manifestation itself involve? ra) Quickening of the believer to a fuller and richer Christian life: (b) A larger and mor2 intelligent conception of how the Christian's life works in ns: (c) The only substantial _consolation in seasons of trial: (d) The consecration of every talent and gift to Him.

Low and poor water is being experi enced at Fishers Island by the mem bers of the Coast Artillery companies who are there for ten days. The sup- ply is short and only a stated quanti~ ty can be secued each day. ' The pres- ence of the Coast Artillery corps there, with about 700 additional men to sup- ply, makes a big drain on the reser- Vvoir, so that for many hours it be- comes necessary to shut it off entirely. The low state of the water affects the quality, and orders have been giv- en for no one to drink it until it has been boiled. This means additional work for the cooks, but the amount obtainable is limited. The company members are adhering strictly to the order. There is no sickness, the health af the camp being excellent, and it is believed there will be no trouble if the orders are obeyed in every respect. Members who have been home report the boys as delighted with their loca- tion and that they are having a fifie time. This is their first visit to Fort Wright, but they are well pleased. Sunday was a» day when there were many visitors at the camp. The day was quietly spent, there being no work for the men except guard duty. Work on Guns. So_readily have ths Connecticat coast artillerymen in camp at Fisher's Island acquired knowledge of the big guns that Saturday it was decided no further gun drill would be necessary. At 1.45 in the afternoon the companies of Maj. Vincent M. King's fire c mand began sub-calibre practice. This will continue today and tomorrow. This week the Connecticut men will have practice in firing_at_stationary an moving targets with full service am- munition. The battery, gun and range section drilling was resumed Saturday morn- ing. Capt. Malcolm B. Andruss, the | chief regular instructor, considered that the officers and men had mastered t! manual sufficiently to warrant calibre practice being taken up. THREATENED TO SHOOT NEPHEW IN TALMAN STREET Joseph Falcone Claimed Revolver Be- longed to Him and Was Arrested With His Brother Frank. There was plenty of excitement in Talman street Sunday when a dispute arose and during the melee it is claim- ed by Michael Falconz that his uncle, Frank Falcone, jumped back of his uncle, Frank, drew & revolver and threatened to shoot him. Michael says that his father, who is Joseph Falcone, and brother of Frank, grabbed .the re volver and took it away from Frank and put it in his pocket. Complaint was made to the police and Frank was arrested. Joseph was searched also, and the revolver was found on _ him. Although Michael said that Joseph had taken it away from Frank. Joseph declared that he had not, and that it was his ravolver. It was loaded. The weapon was taken away from him - and both were locked up for carrying concealed weapons and Frank was charged with breach of the peace. In the evening they secured bail.

NORWICH TOWN Big Thirty-Ton Hay Rick at Casper Bailey Place—Mr. and Mrs. Charles Kimball and Daughter to Sail on Giant Liner. Casper Bailey of Pine Grove farm, Scotland road, has an immense hay rick which is attracting attention. It is about 40 feet long, 21 feet wide and 15 feet high, and is composed of 30 tons. A large gang of men built it in one day under the superyision of Tree Warden Davis, who is an expert in such matters. It is protected on top from the weather by a huge canvas. This is a big amount of hay to be cut from about 12 acres of land, consider- ing the dryness of the season. . On Auto Trip. A party made up of Mr. and D. B.

Saturday was the last day for Camp Baldwin at Niantic, and many ot the boys were not sorry, as thay have had a week of hard work and have been pretty thoroughly drilled by the U. S. army officers. The soldiers all got away by special trains during the af- ternoon. The tents will be taken down and shipped to the arsenal at Hart- ford and the camp cleaned up next week, when Niantic will resume its usual quiet for the remainder of the year. The work of shipping the camp equipage to Hartford will be under the supervision of Colonel Wise, as- sistant quartermaster general. ; If the men of the First infantry thought they would have an easy day in camp Saturday they found out their mistake, for most of them were out on the highways for field work all the morning. They got back on the mu: ter field in time to get ham sand- wiches and coffee served by the com- pany cooks. No time was allowed for regular mess, as the companies we all rembarked on special trains b tween 1 and 2 o'clock and there was no time to indulge in any elaborata preparations for breaking camp. The baggage squads during the forenonn 1->cked up company effects and carted them to the station. The infantry came in from outside work and. after getting a bite to eat were ordered out for the last dress parade. -The com- mands then marched to the statio The cavalry and signal corps men had a short drill and then they, teo, made ready to leave. FOURTH OF THE GREAT AMERICANS Rev. P. C. V‘l:ighk Speaks of Life, Work and Character of Frances Willard. For, the last of his series of four summer addresses on Great Ameri- cans, Rev. P. C. Wright considered Frances Willard, her life, her work and her character, at the Central Baptist church, on Sunday evening. There was a go l.ed congregation and George A Turner sang in excellent voice. Many qualities and characteristics enter into life to make men great, said the speaker. But there is one great, unshifting quality and that quality is virtue. In every great life there must be virtue. A man may be bril- liant and a man may have a splen- did education, but great moral strength is necessary for greatness, and this may be achieved by a man without brilliancy and one deprived of the ad- vantages of an education. The lack of opportunity for devel- opment in the early life of Frances ‘Willard, her inability to attend school until 14, and the subsequent. steps in her education, were touched upon up to the time when ill with typhoid fe- ver, her religious faith was awakened. The speaker divided her life into four periods, those of her youth, her teach- ing, her travels and finally that of her great life work. The hour of deeis- ion in Boston, when she declined the presidency of an institution of learn- ing to accept the presidency of the W. C.-T. U., of Chicago, so profoundly impressed was she with the awful- ness of the curse upon the land and the influence that women might have, was described. She was endowed with the conviction that life should be spent according to the vision that God gives us and not controlled by worldly de- sires. In her character she had those | qualities that men and women need to build into their lives to make th useful - She was a born leader, with a clear-cut conscience and an oppor- tunity. She was a reformer who stood for absolute sobriety in both high and low places, vet mellowed by sympathy, by her loving, gentle spirit, instead of repelling, she drew people around her. Her tender sympathy, her deep moral purpose and her ~unbounded faith in God were eminent character- istics of Frances Willard. AVERY ASSOCIATION. Annual Business Mesting Makes Dr. Avery President. The Avery Memorial ociation of Groton held its annual business meet- _.There has been a deal made with J. T Collins, holder of the process for making wood pulp from waste mater- ial as weil as for other available wood, including yellow pine, by which the Fibre Process company secures This company is a holding company for the process and the jntentions are, it is stated by one of the officials, to lease or sell the process to manufac- turers of wood pulp, There are nu- merous Canadian pulp makers and some in this country, including one at Portsmouth, N. H. with whoh it is thought a deal can be made for the use of this process. The incorporation and organization of the company have previously been referred to. About a year ago, W. F. Hill inter- ested Mr. Collins in coming to this city for the purpose of showing what he could do in the way of making pulp and with the idea of starting a pulp mill here, The process was tried out here, the necessary machinery being located in the Bacon Arms company building, where a batch of Wwood was “cooked,” as it is termed, and samples of the white pulp obtained were sent away to’ be made into paper. It was found that there was an excellent fi- bre and excellent results were obtain- ed when' the material was put through ! the paper machine. " The pulp was pronounced excellent in every respect and a number became interested.in the project, with the view to locating a ! large plant here, to make pulp, and | possibly to make paper. | Efforts to interest capital were suc- ! cessful, but it was impossible to se- | cure it as desired. Morton F. Plant | became interested in the project after giving it a thorough inspection, com- | ing here to see it made, and it is un- derstood he was willing’ to finance the project to start a_ plant capitalized at | over a million dollars. The terms of | the deal were not satisfactory to Mr. | Collins and it was dropped _ H Others were then interested in the plan, and now the first step towards| putting it into use have been taken. | There is no probability of any immedi- | ate steps being taken to start a con- | cern to use this process, said one of the officials, and nothing has been dore concerning ‘a local factory. It is pos- | sible that in time there may be such a | plant on the Thames river, hut ft wiil | require a capital of about a million dollars to start such a mill. There are! available locations at Tradiag Cove, Kitemaug_and Best View, hut it thought that not emough water could | be secured here for the use of the b iness. 3 | There will be a big demand for the | product of the company making wooa | pulp by that process and could a com- | pany have been started for the purpose of manufacturing it the entire outpal could have been contracted for. It is a chemical process which .Mr. | Collins has worked out and by it it is| possible to reduce spruce to pulp in an hour and a half against eight w« nine by the present method, while v low pine can be “cooked” in four! hours while %y the other methods. sulphite and ‘soda. It is understood that options on a large tract of la have been -secured which will furn: the wood for such a mill, the tr: containing about 200,000 acres. There are endless uses for wood pulp an from yellow pine there would be nu- merous by-products. STATE ROADS HERE ARE BEING OILED. Three Carloads of Dust Layer Has Three Carloads of Dust Layer Have Been Received—Have Been Working at Norwich Town. Three tank cars of ol have been re- ceived here for the state roads, and it is being applied by the town.

L, U. hall on Sunday eve- ning, Meyer Rich acting as chairman, and K. Raisin as secretary.
