Then each etarted his vehicle as though to pass, with the result that the two vehicles came together.

Barber of Danbury, Everett Hubbard of New Haven and Presi- dent Lincoln. Sermon by Rev, T. H. Saunders. The occasiopal sermon was deliv- ered by Rev. T. H. Saunders of Mer- iden, who spoke impressively upon the theme, The Coming Kingdom, from the text Matthew 11, 12: From the days of John the Baptist till now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence and men of violence take it by force. He mentioned violence, authority and education' as three of the ways by which' attempts have been made to bring the ideal kingdom to pass, un- til we now reach the conviction that service will be the first principla de- manded in bringing it to pass. Sel- fishness has ruled and has been the great sin, but service found its per- sonification in Jesus Christ.

MISS HOLLOWAY’S WORK Had Made Valuable Report on State’s Industrial Conditions, The New Haven Register says: All interested in suffrage and better industrial conditions = for women will be most appreciative of the fact that the house and senate unanimously passed the appropriation for Miss Charlotte Molyneux Holloway, the spe- clal investigator of the industrial com- mission of the state. This is a merlted recognition of the ability and conscientious work of Miss Holloway, whose work as “special in- vestigator in industrial conditions of wage earning women and girls in Connecticut” " has been highly com- mended by the most prominent mem- bers of the house and senate, and is and certainly should be most appre- ciated by the people of Connecticut. Miss Holloway is a native of Con- necticut, is a D. A. R, and is very prominent In Catholic circles and is president of the Ladies of Isabella of this state and other organizations. In her report she has presented a clear, concise and accurate state- ment of conditions. It is one of the most Valuable revelations to industrial conditions vet published. Miss Holloway devotes a chapter to Woman as an Asset. Each of the large cities in the state have a chap- ter devoted to the industrial condition of its women and also the relations of work and wages. The smaller cities are grouped. The stories of the women workers should make suffrage popular. They need it, although Miss Hollo- way’'s report only deals with facts and certainly avoids all sensational statements. Promotion for Carleton P. Browning. By a recent promotion Carleton P.

The fragment of “Pickwick” manu- script now awaiting a purchaser at Christie’'s on behalf of the Red Cross bears witness to a characteristic of the great novelist which has seldom been noted—the excellence of his penman- ship.. Though apt to be microsopic and plentifully interlined, his manu- scripts are excellent “copy” from the compositor’s point of view, with every letter perfectly ed and unmistak- able. This is the more surprising when it is remembered that Dickens came to novel-writing after a long spell of re- porting, in the course of which he fre- quently hed to transcribe his notes in a coach, “by the flickering aid of a carriage lamp, while jolting over roads that almost jumped ~him out of hig “~Pall Mall Gazette.
