Rev. ‘tgr ‘Hatfleld, who has spoken here before, was heaid ‘with interest by a good sized congre- lltlo PFrom the scripture found in Nnmberl x, 29-32 verses, the preacher took tlie. text for a forceful and searching ser- mon. Describing the observance of ‘the first passover after the deliverance from Egypt, and the beginning of the long march to the = promised land through the grim unknown desert, speaker dwelt on Moses' feeling of fle@fl for an experiencedjguida to show them the way. And Hdbab, whom he asked to lead them, becsuse of his acquaint- anee with the desert, refused to go for his own gain because they would “do him good.” But the second in- vitation to come to serve, “to be to us instead of eyes” .he dccepted. He would not go for what he could get out of it, but he would go for the help he could bring to other lives. Moszs sought for human aid in the journey, although God was his guide, because while God is all sufficient, He is ready always to use all the means availabi that will aid in carrying out His di- vine purpose. Life is a pilgrimage through a rough and unknown land, and there are dar gers and barren and solitary places in spite of love and companionship. Yet it is true that our own little world is very largely what we make it. God has filled life not with happiness, al- though, there are times when life reaches harmony for a little while, but with the element of struggle. And struggle it is that determines whether our lives shall be lived on a high plane or on a low on2. Life provides a dis- cipline that trains for the higher things to come. And this discipline need not be always painful, for God glves us joy, peace comfort. rest, cheer, tb counter act the bitter things of life. God was the real leader, not Moses nor Hobab.

We are 80 slow to hear what God says, so quick 10 hear the noise of ths world, of the thousand and one things that woald distract our attention. We are quick of intellect, it flashes out in every di- rection, but we are slow of heart. Our divine elder brother Jesus Christ has traveled over all our way. By ex- perience He has learned the perils and discouragements of the journey, the safe camping places, theé refreshing springs, and He can show us. There are times in the lives of all of us when we ne2d a brother to cheer us, and a brother's example to inspire us, and Jesus can do it for us. Moses saw by faith the promised 1and, and he wanted Hobab to share in the blessing. If a man's a Christian, he wants someone else to be a Chr. tian. This invitation of Moses 1 Hobab is the invitation of the church to the man outside.

Christ himself was the foundation one laid for the building of Christ- ian character, tried and proven by every test that could be put upon him, and found worthy to be the foundation of the gospel church. Rejected by the Jews and high priests of his time, yet he is become today the chief stone of the corner.

Now that Lieutenant Dunn has been transferred to Rutland, Vt, having left last week, Captain Douglass is once more alone in the army work in this city, and, as far as he knows, there will be no assisting officer here until Christmas. Although there is plenty of opportunity for the work that the ar- my is doing in Norwich, the support that is given it has been inadequate, this being one -of the main factors in Lieutenant Dunn’s removal o a more promising field. Considering all things Captain Douglass has been doing splendid work here, and friends of the army are hoping for a betterment of the financial condition, without which many of its philanthropies will be held up. HARTFORD BOWLING CLUB Makes Summer Tour Through Here in Four Automobiles. * CRACKER STOCK DAMAGED. Leak from Hot Water Boiler Floods N. B. C. Store. ¥ Damage estimated at $2000 was done on Sunday morning at the National Biscuit company store, No, 81 Frank- lin street, by water from a leaky hot water tank in the tenement over the store. The leak was discovered about 5 o'clock Sunday morning, having started about 1 o'clock, it is believed, and by the time Manager Stenberg of the biscuit company was notified and ‘was able to reach the store, there was anginch of water over the floor of the north half of the store. The water was also running down into the cel- lar, where a large quantity of broken crackers were wet down. In the store the water dripped through from the ceiling in a number of different spots, so that a large number of boxes of crackers, both tin and wooden boxes, were wet, and ‘their contents either wholly or partly spoiled. Manager Stenberg and his assistants spent the greater part of the morn ing sweeping the water out and sep- arating the damaged crackers from those that had not been touched by the water. His stock had just been replenished by a large shipment, so that the flood caught him at a par- ticularly unfortunate time. SUSPECTS FOUL PLAY, Middletown Coroner Thinks Fort Ter- ry Soldier May Not Have Died from Natural Causes. Twenty members of the Hartford Bowling club, traveling in four auto- mobiles, journeyed this way on Sundoy for their annual summer excursion, reaching here about 1 p. m., after hav- ing been met at Baitic by County Road Inspector John Donovan, As four mem- bers of the club are from the office of State Highway Commissioner MacDon- ald, they are well lcl}flain!ed with Mr. Donovan, who annual makes the loca arrangements for their tour. They stopped for a short time at his home on North Main street and then made a stop at the Wauregan house before going on to the Griswold at Groton for dinner. At 5.30 they left for Hartford via New Haven. The members of the party includel D. Church, C. G, Neibos, W. S, Por- ter, R. F. James, J. H. Magee, J. B. Brownell, Walter Hogan, John Hogan, Fred Reed, J. G. Brownell, H. B, Burr, W. A. Hinckley, J, L. Cook, Charles Griffin, Georgz E. Holmes, Walter Grinnell, Robert H. Fox. In the opinion of Coroner Stephen B, s of Middlesex county, Corp. Har- ry Miller of the Eighty-eighth company of artillery, stationed at Fort Terry, whose body was towed into Saybrook Point, Friday, came to his death by The.coroner will write to Colonel Terry, informing him that the jurisdiction of holding an inquest lies with Coroner Franklin H. Brown of New London county. However, Cor- orner Brown stated Sunday evening that from all the information he had about the finding of the body he thought it would come under the ju- risdiction of a New York state coro- ner. He said he had heard nothing from the authorities at the fort. G, H. Tember of Providence, whose yacht towed in the body, went to Mid- dletown on Saturday and made an affi- davit to the finding of Miller's body floating in the Sound, “The body was buried on Saturday by order of Coroner Davis and will not be @isturbed until an order from the registrar of vital statistics is given. Officgrs from Fishers! island were at Old Baybrook on Saturday to claim the body. The statutes provide that no body shall be removed from the grave during the months of June, July, August and September unless a crimi- nal act is proved. The officers returned to their quarters and will probably ask fer the necessary papers ‘o remove the body for investigation, stating at the same time they had the right to claim the body as it was found in the government’s domain and not in the town of Old Saybrook, where the body is interred and furthermore that Miller ‘was a soldier under the jurisdiction of the United States government and can be removed at any time on demand. The authorities there differed with them and demanded the necessary pa- pers for removal Medical Examiner W. L. Kelsey of Old Saybrook is quoted as saying that he was not positive that the body of Miller was without life when it en- tered the water. The state of decom- position was such that it had been ime pouxble to perforn an autopsy. Dr. Kelsey said that it could not be told for a certainty that the cuts in the throat and neck were made by a knife. They may have been, the medical ex- aminer said, or they may have been caused by part of a boat striking the body. Christening Party.
