It {s expected that some of those who enlisied in the campaign will do & it tle quiet work towards making up tiis | amount, and it is hoped that those who did nof cantribute during the cam- paign will Send in voluntary subscrip- | tions that the association may continue at its highes degree of usefulness.

Meetings are held several | times a week ,Tuesday and Friday | evenings and Sunday morning and eveninf, and all who care to attend ‘are weicomed. At these services there is preaching by the leader, Thomas Pea body, and sometimes speakehs _are present from out of town. Saturday evenings free suppers are served all men of the streets, who are homeless and supperless.

But to accomplish this result it is vital, in the opinion of the dirccio of the company, that the stockholders shall at once. with substantial unani- mity, commit thelr Interests to the commitfee, granting it not only the power as' the representative of the stockholders to deal with the bank creditors’ committee, hut also with those who may be expected to con- tribute to the necessary new capits To this end the inclosed power of attorney has been prepared.

A portion of the larger of the two old Coit elms on Washington street, | opposite the residence of Mrs. Louisa | Gilman lane, opposite Lowthorpa | meadows, fell down Sunday night about § o'clock with a crash and in- terrupted the trolley traffic for a short time. The history of these two trees is thus shown by a letter from Cap- tain Erastus Perkins to the late Wil- liam C. Gilman in August. 1839, as fol- ows Sir: A few davs ago vou inquired of me what I knew of the two elm trees near the home of the late Daniel L. Coit. In answer to to which, when young was iuformed that my father, Jabes Perkins, brought the trees from he woods and set them out as a shade to his shop. This, T think, was about | the year 1750, compuling from my age. oure, ERASTUS PERKINS. | This establishes the face with such accuracy that It may be asserted that the trees are now (1913) not less than | 164 vears oid, having been transplani- ed o the spot where they now stand | in the 91st year of the settlement of | the town. They are remarkable not | so much for their girth, for t e | not the largest elms in New England, | as for thelr lofty domelike tops and | their widespread interlacing branches. | They have had constant attention all their days. Deadwood has been clear- | ed_away, weakened limbs have been | supported with bolts and chains and | swarms of elm heeties have been | fought each year with patient persist- ence. In the summer of 1908 a limb mea uring twenty Inches in diameter at its junetion with the main trunk sub- sided without obvious cause and crashing across the trolley wires and the fence opposite obstructed traffic for | several hours. Careful measurements of their girth | has been made from time to time, the larger one in 1834 having measured 15 feet in circummerence. and in 1909, its clrcumference wag 1§ feet 6 inches, and ‘the spread of the branches was 150 feet. About half the tree is affected by the | portion which fell Sunday night. Disturbing Politics.
