Lively serenaders gave the old town a good time during the early hours of Monday morning—and a noisy one. The stroke of the midnight hour was accepted ag a signal to turn loose the noise brigades and what the brigades did with their opportunity was ample ;;ldd can bé proved by y. They had a full. supply or-w.op and turned ‘1oose. the midst. rattlesome fit- tle welcome to the good old Fourth, a_ day late, that it has received here- abouts for some few years. A fine feature about the celebration was that ‘there Was no tough stuff. There was plenty of noise and then some to spare, especially in the vicin- ity of where a. parade was organized, led by a fife, bugle and~drum corps; but there wag no ng of more or less valuable property, as tsed to be consi@ered the proper thing. Here and there a wagon was séized and given a new station in Nif¢ and there Wwere somé other stunts of that kind, but on the whole, the celebration, if the noisiest ever, was conducted with all respect to property rights. Chief A. P. Woodward of the fire department was given a tremendous ovation at his homie _on. Academy street. along .about 2 oclock and the dose was repeated ‘m féw minutes later before the house of Judge W. F. Woodward and Former Warden W. I Bullard. The racket was suffictent to awaken a whole flock of Rip Van Winkles, though no reflections are in- tended. There were cheers by the 100 or more of the serenaders, ealls for speeches, ete., some of thém succes- ful. In_other parts of the borough other groups were doing their most- est to sweep all the trenches of sleep and they were no less successful than the Bread street paraders.~ Altogether the welcome to the holi- day was oné of the greatest éver. No accidents were reported other than of minor nature. The Monday celebration fa Daniel- son was quiet. All day long there was a_ sporadic discharge of explo- sive, but the deluge in_the morning seem\d to drench everybody's spirits as well as to ypset the arrangements for most of the events planned in this section for the day. almost évery- ANNIVERSARY SERMON.

The service was also of ex- ceptional interest beeause of the re- ception of thirteen into church mem- bership. The pastor, Rev. C. H, Bar- ber, used as his text: “Hitherto hath the Lord Helped Us’ After speaking of the fact that it was wise for na- tions and churches and individuals to érect their memorials and to write upon them thé record of God's protec- ting care, he said, “It was just three score -years ago, on the first Sunday in July, that the first Sabbath service was held in this churgh building. Mermorable Service, That too was the communion- ser- vice; and it always be memorable because at that sérvice/70 were re- ceived into the church om confession of faith. Rev. Thomas O. Price was the pastor; and his ministty here ox- tended over a period of fthirty years. The day is memorable also not merely for the numbers received, but for the character of those who came.

He was graduated at Amherst college and East Windsor Hill Seminary, his first sermon was preached in this audience room. He was/ pastor at Woodstock, Pomfret and Rockville, and when he died in 1880 few pastors in the stite of Con- necticut were more deeply loved. Officer More Than Fifty Years. Another of the young men received that day was William H.

The average attendance in our Sun- day school is almost exactly the same that it was then, but the school is so graded and organized b Teacher’s Training elass, its Beginners and’ Primary departments, its Cradle iFoll, and its Home department are so carriéd on that it can safely be said that never was our Sunday school a more efféctive agency in the work of| the church than it is today: Liberal Giving. In thé last ten years the amount which our church has raised and used in meeéting home expenses and making improvement on the church property is something over $30,000, and our benevolent contributions for outside missionary work have exceeded $7,000.

Captain started toward the man, but before he could get into close quarters the Yellow began to retreat and sneeringly and repeatedly invited the captain to catch him if he could. After some time of thig by-play the fellow became so confident in his abil- ity to retreat that he must have felt as good as do the Russians in that line, for he offered to bet the captain a dol- lar and a half that he couldn’t get him, The captain apparently gave up try- ing soon thereafter and _leisurely sauntered down the street. Mr. Fresh Guy immediately resumed his fool per- formance, operating from a at the Ballard and Clark store. .l meantime the captain had swung down around the Pomfret street end of the square and up through Canal street. In about a minute later he qualified for that $1.
