Motorman Edward Florence had his Bead laid open with a bottle and Con- uctor McNulty was roughly handled Saturday night by a gang of six Polish residents of Montville who made the trip of the Montville extra trolley a roughhouse for a large part of the way. The motorman was cracked in the back of the head with ‘the bottle as he was stooping to push in the fender at Montville before starting the car on the return trip to this city. The blow laid open a gash that cov- cred him with blood, but he jumped for the man who hit him, a Polander by the name of Mike Smith,, and choked him .Into insensibility, tossing him onto the fender. The man was carried off by his friends, who also stoned the car and broke several win- Qows. In.iteas it started off to return here. The gang of six that made the trouble got on in this city and evi- dently noticed that Special Constable Yerrington was not on board. as is his custom on this last trip every Satur- day night. They were noisy and bois- terous on the way down and women passengers on the car were frightened. One passenger who got off below Trading Cove warned Conductor Mc- Nulty that one of the men in the party had ‘said he was going to “get” the conductor. Constable Yerrington ordi- narlly rides on this car to look out for possible trouble since there was trouble like this one night some timc ago. “Approaching Montville the six got so noisy that the conductor went in to try to quiet them down and was being on : " sailant—Gang of Six Made Rough-house Trip Saturday o v!/ i e Fight Out of His As- —— roughly handled when Motorman Flor- ence, Who is considerably heavier than fhe “conductor, came In and rescued m. When the car reached the end of the line the man Smith watched-his chance and landed the blow while the motor- man wasn't looking. The bottle was found in the road Sunday, smashed. Without walting to shift the irolley, Concuctor McNulty grabbed the trolley Tope at the {ront of the car, holding it while Motorman Florence shot the car out of reach of the gang, who were throwids stones. Motorman Florence ran the car to the cily and them to the Greemeville barn, where he arrived somewhat shaky from loss of blood. Night Start- er Kinney had a special car to take the motorman to Dr. LaPlerre, who sewed up the wound with four stitches. The car then took Motorman Florence tu his_home in Taftville. 2 - Sunday afternoon Constable Yer- Tington went to Montville and arrested Mike Smith and another man as they were getting off a car from New Lon- don at the Montyilie switch.

Constable Hickey arrested one of these, Michael Tataro, in Montville late | Sunday and brought him to police headquarters here, where he was lock- ed_up. Mike Smith is the same man who made trouble in a car several months ago and was overpowered and brought hers with one or two men sitting on him on the floor to keep him quiet.

The sermon at the Sunday evening service at Christ Episcopal church was by Rt. Rev. George Biller, Jr., mission- ary bishop of South Dakota. who gave an interesting account of conditions in hat missionary district. The pastor, Rev. R. R. Graham, and Archdeacon J. Eldred Brown assisted in the service. Largest Mission Distriot. In opening his remarks, the speaker said that he did not propose to deliver a sermon, but to give an account of the work of the mission district of South Dakota, a work which, he said. ur interest and is unique in several ways. It is the larg- est mission district in the American church; not the largest in area, though it is large compared with eastern states, but the largest in the amount of worls already developed. In the dis- trict there are 150 missions 100 of them devoted to the work among the Indians. There are 25,000 Sioux In- dians in the district, and of these one- half belong to the Episcopal church. Every other Indian in the district has been baptized, and 6,000 of them have been confirmed.in this church. Thera are 100 chapels or stations where ser- vices are conducted for the Indians in the Dakota lands. Hymns and the same prayer service which you use they have tramslated into their lan- guage, and they have the sacrament as you have it and they love it. It is hard work, for there are but ten white men and twenty Ingian preachers to teach the people. Those who conduct many places are lay readers, or catechists, as they are call- ed; men of perhaps little education and intellect, but men whose characters are known to be of the best. These men lead the services Sunday after Sunday in the little cabins or chapels through- out the district. Were a Barbarous People. When Bishop Herr was first sent to lead the work among the Indians, forty vears ago, they were a barbarous peo- ple. with little civilization and meager ideals. They were controlled only by the soldiers. Now the missionaries among honorable, people. They make their mistakes, as who does not? I know them, love them, live with them. The Christian Indians measure up well with any class of Christians in this country, loving the church above all else in their meager lives. The hardest part of the work is com- ing. The South Dakota Indians have reserva- tions as large as the state of Connecti- cut, with small tribes scattered about over the aera. There were no whites near them outside the missionaries and the government officials. This is all hanging, and the work of the church is becoming harder than ever. The res- ervations are being opened to settle- ment. It must be, it is the advancing of civilization, but it will bring to the Indians hard problems. The Indian believes the white race a race of Chris- tians, and yet the first things which he meets in the towns which the whites are bringing into existence are whiskey, gambling and dive ‘These are fron- tier towns, and the frontier man is Jargely a bad man. The Indians have been teught that- Christianity with liquor and gambling and other evils is impossible. Two Menacing Evils. There are two evils which menace the Indians—the divorce evil and the Indian dance, which is being revived. Bishop Herr found the Indian a polyg- amist. The Indian youth stole his bride, and several of them Today throughout the mission field there are Christian homes in the best meaning of the term. South Dakota has in the past been notorious for its divorce evil, but this has been in a measure over- come by changes in the Jaws. Those seeking divorces now go to Reno, Nev. With the change in the laws some of the white lawyers found {i hard to make a living, so they went to the In- dians, When a shyster lawyer hears of a tiff between an Jndian and his wifs he goes to the man and tells him that for $25 he can get a divorce. The Indian falls.

In any other case in which the Indian is concerned the federal courts are called in, but in this instance the state magistrates try the cases. The Indian Dance. In the revival of the Indian dance is a step backward. Colonel Cody found that_money could be made by showing the Indian as he was before the mi: sionary found him. Other people caught the idea, and soon the Indlans decided they could make the money for them- melves by doing it Inndian dance houses ure now in existence all over the reservaticus,ang with the old dance go all the bad habifs of the fermer ife Defore the coming of Christianity.

The Indians are not the only people for . whom work is carried on in South Dakota. There are 800, people there, and the number is ever | increasing. This is the last frontier | of the country. One vast significance ' of the work for the white men lies in | the fact that hundreds of the best| young men of the east are. flocking to | these frontier towns and cities, to grow | up with the country. It is.a strong| and upright young man who can pass through the evils and temptatons of the frontier town without falling. The great hope for these young men is to have the church established there be- fore they get there. In many of these new towns the only place that is ciean s the littie mission house. There are &o homes there, for the frontiersman nows the country and leaves his wife ang daughter back east. The dives are the only places of entertainment and recreation for the young men, unless the church gets them first. Rev. Mr. Biller closed with an appeal for support of the work in his mission fleld, and at the close an offering for | this work was taken, E 1 LARGE CONGREGATIONS | : BID PASTOR FAREWELL.' At Central Baptist Church—32 Receiv- ed Into Fellowship—Gift from City Bible Cla: . | Sunday was a day of large congre- ' gations at the Central Baptist church: at all services, due to their farewell nature as marking the last Sabbah in the pastorate of the Aev. P. C. Wright, ere he leaves to assume the pastorate of Gethsemane Baptist church in Phil- | adelphia. At both the morning® and evening church services there were congrega- tions of over 600. At the morning ser- vice, which opened 15 minutes earlier than usual. there were twelve persons baptized and 32 were given the right- hand of fellowship in joining the church. The impressivé sermon by Rev. Mr. Wright was upon the theme, Triumphing, from' the text, We are more than conquerors through him that loved us. In the Sunday followed the church service all the Toom: were thrown togethes and Lang's five piece orchestra, which was playing for the City Bible class, ren- dered selections which were greatly enjoyed as the school was gathering. | When school opened Charister James L. Case led the singing with two pi- anos and the orchestra playing the hymns. The school attendance was the largest in the recollection of y member present Of these 175 were' the men of the City Bible class. ‘When Pastor Wright had the class to itself the orchestra gave another fine selection, for which he expressed his personal appreciation. behalf of the class, Secretary Bdward Y. Messinger then presented | the pastor the following set os resolu- ttions, suitably fromed: Resolved, That is was with much | sorrow and regrets we learned of the| final decielon of our able and beloved leader, Rey. Peter C. Wright, to sever | his connection with the Central Baptist | church and this Bible class, and re-| move to the city of Philadelphia.

"This was followed by furiher words ! of appreciation from Col. Charles W. Gale, Judge oJhn H. Barnes, County Commissioner Charles D. Noyves and the gift from the class of an enlarge- ment of the closs photograph. This was presented on behalf of the class by Charles L. Stewart.
