CONNECTICUT’S DEATH TRAP. The Railroad Cross ing at New Londen a Dangerous Place. ®We read in the New London Day, =8, the Hartford Courant, that the crossing tender at the State street crossing in that city has resigned after 18 months’ service. We do not blame him: indeed, we congratulate him on living so long while on that hazardous post and on saving his life by getting out ahead of the undertaker. If there i3 a death trap in Connecticut, it is just where the principal street of New London runs down to the waterfront and crosses at grade all the tracks of the railroads. You've got to cross if You wish to go over the ferry or to Fisher's Island or to Bastern Point or to Block Island or to the New York boat. New Londan's boast is her har- ber, and to reach it one must somehow pass in front of all the engines and cars of the great trunk line of railroad ard also of the agile and uncertain switchers. It strikes the Courant that thig crossing tender, wheo is going now into the construction business, might turn a neat penny by writing after hours his reminiscences of 13 months in ‘the jaws of death, telling how many imes e just escaped and how many less fortunate he saw maimed or Kill- ed. The only element of safety at that crossing is in jts excessive peril; it is 50 dangerous that the danger impresses almeost everybody who s*~ns within the zone of probable destruction. MISSIONARY MEETING. First Baptist Organization Met With Mrs, Mary Dolbeary There was a good attendance at the meeting of the Woman's Home and Joreign Missionary circle of the First Baptist church, held Tuesday with Mrs. Mary Dolbeare of West Thames . 7he presidint, Mrs. William Gilchrist, opened the meeting by read- ing from Luke, tenth chapter.

Chairman McGuinness then intro- duced the saciety chaplain, Father Cavanaugh for the address of the avening, which was eloquently given and enthusiastically applauded Thi assemblage, he said, was to pay fitting testimonial of our affection and gratitude felt for our saintly founder, Rev. Theobald Mathew. 1t was the speakor’s intention 1o speak of the un- derlying purpose, the Jominant hope that aeliated Father Mathew, that we, Dbeing editied, may emulate his example and practice the same devotion to the cause of total abstinence as did tne patriotic, whele souled Father Ma- thew. Ireland, though persecuted by a tyrant who would reb her of jher faith, yet remained true to her religion and her God, hut alas! another enemy s0on appeared, more insidious and for- midable than-the combined forces:of tyranny, the desire for intoxicating drink. Refore Traland conld realize ner dangcr-she had fallen into the. merei- less clutches of. thai oetépus of de- struction. 2 But God heard her prayers and as i by divine intervention Father Mathew resolved to stem the tide of inighity, offering hineelf a sterling champion: who consecrated every . drop of” his blood, every fibre of his being, to. the service of his native land. Kriew the Value of a Soul. But think you that patriotism was the principal motive of this giant of charity ? . Ah, no! The peace he would bring would be spiritual comfort, for he was a Calholic and a priest, an- ointed to the sole service of his God, and his first thought was far the souls lost forever by sins of self-indulgence. Well indeed he knew the value of a soul and that its loss was infinitely move dreadiul than the wreck of orlds. Such was the underlying mo- tive we would analyze tonight, the desire to heal mankind afflicted by the stourge of mortal sin: And the remedy he applied was totai absti- nen: Thac is why he signed (he pledge in the name of God. It was with the supernatural intention of in- creasing God's kingdom on earth and to do all for the good of souls and the greater glory of his maker. Is not this a worthy cause we have chosen tonight? You who pity the victims of plague and pestilence and sorrow for the exiled lepers in Molo- ing to save the drunkards, those im- mortal seuls dving forever at your very doors. dving of a dread infection at finds no relief in death, for a drunkard can never enter the kingdom of heaven. His mind is paralyzed by the efiects of drink, his will is broken by the voluntary sin, and he cannot even cry, “Oh, God, be merciful to me, a sinner!” Gospel of Self-Denial. Like St John the Baptist, Father Mathew preached a gospel of self de- nial; he made the rougin ways smooth, he opened a new era of hepe to 4 cheerless 1and, Moved by his example and nis elogquence, people flocket to his standard, and the world begaimec better, although enemies assailed’ him on all sides and scoffers dubbed him madman, mariae, fanatic. Is it strange that Ireland again rejoiced and that the light of faith still burted in Irish hearts? is it wonderful that at men- tion of his pame, prayers and bene- dictions ascend like incense to the throne of mercy? Truly he was a pat- riot and prige of his peaple and a benefactor of mankind Will_you not resolve tonight to em- ulate lis example and spirit of self control? Be infused then, not with a spirit {hat passes like tme night, buf with the constant determination that counts all burdens lizht when borne for the good of souls and the glory of God. d for Such Sec The need for total abstinence socie- ties is great, the harvests are abund- ant, but the laborers few, Our coun- try Is threatered, though in a less de gree, by the same dangel that im- Deriled Irelard, so consecrate your selves to the service of your and fo God.
