SALVATION ARMY IN EUROPEAN WAR ZONE Reports Heard by Ensign and Mrs. Wilbur at Hartford Convention. Ensign and Mrs. E. W, Wilbur have returned from the Southérn New Eng- land councils held at Hartford last week. Many distinguished officers of the Salvation Army were present and the work for fall and winter was duly mapped out as well as plans to help those in distress across the sea. Hundreds of the Army’s officers and soldiers of all the nations now at war have gone to the front and many have already laid down_ their weapons to take up their abode among the ron- somed throne of God. In Europe the Army girls are sheltering vast num- bers of homeless women and children in thelr quarters and cellars and show- ing’ their strength to encourage the hearts that are so fearful. That the Army is absolutely impar- tial everywhere is shown in the re- nort of a ritish captain, who writes that she with her lieutenant made 'unch for the British ‘while they were “uf'ding trenches and when the Ger- mans came along that- they carried hot coffee and rolls to the soldier Fermans while bullets whizzed by their ears in both directions. One sergeant of the Salvation Army has been sent home wounded, with “oth legs gone, one arm and both eyes rone and in_this wretched condition re is_assured of support for the re- nainder of his life by the Salvation Army. The song Tipperary was being sung along the firing line by the British- ers and this fellow who is now so crippled for life had composed sacred words to_the same tune before he left home and he readily made use of these which carried a strain of protection in God, “I'll put my trust in the safest guide I know” until many of the b learned the Army sergeant’s version and the captain of the regiment sent for him and asked that he tell him the words. Conseguently, the whole regi- ment, from the captain down, sang the tune of Tipperary to sacred words. The Army girls are doing noble work on the battlefield and they tell us that it is mone other than the Great God who protects them as they travel be- tween shot and shell and bring com- fort to the men in line. JUDGE ALFRED COIT PRESIDED AT BOSTON. New London Attorney Was Chairman at Meeting of Congregational Churches. Boston, Nov. 12—The attitude of the churches' toward the nations was crit- icized in an address today by Rev. Dr. Frederick Lynch of New York, a rep- resentative of the Church Peace union, before the New England Congregation- al church. “One cause of this war is that the churches have had a double standard of ethics,” he sald. “They have not condemned the great nations for attacking weaker ones. The church must preach to the nations as swell as to_individuals.” Judge Alfred Coit of New Londen, Conn., presided at the meeting. Chimney Fire in Lake Street.

The sufferer is in constant dread, the water passes sometimes with & scalding sensation and is very profuse; again, thers is diffculty in avelding it, Bladder weakness, most follea eall it, because they ecan’t control urination, ‘While it s extremely anneying and sometimes vory.rllntu this is really one of the most simple allments to overcome.

This would be work enough for even the most ambitious statesman. But the republican majority has no intention of thrusting so great an amount*of work upon the handful of democrats. It would change the rules, but it was surprised to find how easy was the way paved. All that need be done is to have some senator and some member in the house, on the opening day of the next session, move the adoption by this assembly of the joint rules of the semate and house of representatives of Connecticut, aj pearing on pages 115-122, inclusive, of the state register and manual, the official pubiication of the state. Rule 2 reads: “On or before the third day of every stated session i the general assembly, there shall committees, each of which shall con- sist of two senators and nine Yepre- sentatives, except the committee on engrossed bills, which shall consist of two senators and two representatives, one from the majority and onme from the minority In each house.” To be sure, the last assembly adopt- ed a different rule, but the new rule has not been inserted in_the official publication of the state. Perhaps the compilers of the register appreciated that the old rule would be restored, and did not bother with giving the new one_ posterity. The rule as it appears in the pocket manual of the last assembly reads as follows: “On_or before Jan, 23, 1913, there shall be appointed 35 standing com- mittees, each of which shall consi of three senators and nine represen- tatives. and on each committee a ma- pority ‘and no more of the senators shall be appointed from the political party whose members are in a major- ity in the senate, and a majority and no more, of the representatives from the political party whose members are in a majority in the house of repre- sentatives; provided, however, that the committee on engrossed bills shall con- sist of two senators and two represen- tatives, one only to be appointed from the majority party of each house. So it can be seen that the compiiers of the state register have made easy the way for the republican majority- to relieve their democratic brethren from overwork through excessive committee appointments, Of course, the change could be made anyway, were the new rule incorporated in the state publica- tion, but there wou'd be the necessit of a little more strategy In the ap proach. ADDS RARE DOCUMENT TO HIS COLLECTION. William H. Shields Secures Notable Proclamation by Governor Ellsworth In 1842, Attorney William H. Shields, who s constantly adding to an already large collection of old and rare books and documents, has just made a valued addition to it in an original copy, in a remarkably fine state of preservation, of & proclamation for a day of fasting and prayer in 1842 issued by Governor William”W, Ellsworth. One of the most brilllant men of his aay, and twice declining election to the Unlted States senate, Governor Hlis- worth's proclamation evokes admira- tion and challenges comparison wi‘h similar present day efforts for Its lofty spirit and diction, 5 The_proclamation was as follows. By His Bxcollency, Willlam W, Ells- worth, Governer of the State of Con- necticut, a. Proclamation: The religlous mentiment i one of tha most powerful impulwes of the huma1 mind,” All nations in every age of the world have believed in the existence of gome superior power, and have had their pecullar religlous rites, Often indeed it had its origin amid the lowent depths of ignorance and depravity, and led to the grossest jdoiatry an the wildest fanaticism, The history of the world through long ages of dark- nress and error hes ed the jnsuff- olenoy of unalded human reason to discover the light of religious truth, To the Hely Beriptures we are In- debted for all certain knowledge of the nature and character of the Supreme Being, our der.ndunes upon and_ob- ligations to Him as eur Creator, Pre~ server, Redeemer and Ruler, Bellef in_ the inspiratien of the Seriptures leads to the contemplation of the Deity in the physical world In which His infinite power, design and benevolence are so fully displayed; it impels algo to the study ef man, made at firet ‘in the image of his Creator, but presenting on every hand the proofs of a fallen, ruined state, Threugh disobedience to our Maker's will, gjn entered the world, and with sin ‘came pain, want, hardened Indef. ference and blighted hepe.

To such a Being how natural and be- coming is the attitude of humiliation and prayer, to deprecate the merited anger of a Holy God upon individual, as well as upon national offenses. And how suitable is it for all this people to unite in making confession of sin to their common Father, as one family, with.one heart and one voice to pouf out their supplications to a prayer hearing God, “whose compassions fail Bets For this purpose, in accordance wita established usage, 1 do hereby appoint Friday, the twenty-fifth day of March next, to be observed throughout this state‘as-a day of fasting, humiliation and prayer; and invite the people on said day, to review their lives during the past year, with Christian faithful- ness; to assemble in their respective places of worship, and with deep hu- miliation of spirit implore the pardon of Almighty God; to be humbled for the little reverence there is among us for His authority, and His sacred word and institutions; for our cold and thankless reception of temporal and spiritual benefits: for the existence of pride, falsehood, avarice, intemper- ance, injustice and discontent; for dis- regard to the claims of the poor and ignorant and oppressed in our own and in heathen lands; for the continuance of the traffic in human beings in this free republic; for a spirit of war fos- tered and unrebuked; for the restless ambition, violence and party zeal manifested in our public councils. as well as for the want of activity and liberality in the promulgation of tae truths of our holy religion. While we mourn for the past, let prayer be offered that God would con- tinue to bless this state; that He would direct us in the path of dut make us acknowledge His supremacy; avert the consequences of our sins, and Derpetuate our numerous civil and philanthrople institutions, Let prayer likewise be made for the President of these United States and for all that are in authority, that they may be inspired with the fear of God the love of their fellow men, and & hearty devotion to the country which has intrusted. her dearest interests to their wisdom and integrity.

SETTLEMENT REACHED IN WOOD CUTTING CASE. Common Pleas Court Matter Did Not Come to Tri The court of common pleas had the case of Reuben Potter against Harrlet E. Wheeler and others assigned for trial when it came in here Thursday morning, but after a short delay waitin= for the principal witness for the defendant, the attorneys in the case, who were Brown & Perkins for the plaintiff and Andrew B. Davies fur the defendant, had & conference, as a result of which the court was informed that the case would not engage the at- tentlon of the court. Court went out till Tuesday next weelk, The case grew out of the cutting of timber in the vicipity of Bailey's ra- vine in Frankiin, ‘It was alleged that Reuben Potter bought timber of the Wheeler family and he was given to understand the timber was on cer‘ain lands and he cut it. Then Crandail Brothers ‘proved they owned some of the timber and Mr. Potter pald them puss with her dainty slippers.
