Smith of Ing-hok, China, spoke Sunday at the morning service in the First Congregational church. Many a Sunday as the sun was set- ting over there in China and you were Deginning your service here have I ‘wished we could be with you, he be- gan. God has been with us, our church seating over eight hundred, and par- ish house has been secured; you hgres) have had a part in building that church. Referring to results of the Sherwood Eddy campaign in China, he said, Over one hundred men came to the mission, business men, leaders in gov- ernment, and asked to be taught the principles of Christlanity. They bave seen its workings in the graduates of the Ing-hok schools. The most far- reaching satisfactory work is that of taking boys and fitting them for Christlan work. Our orphan boys in their poverty, hunger and thirst for learning, and ‘when fitted, go out from our schools into the hard places to work for Christ, for far less salary than they could receive outside. ‘The wonderful influence of the girls’ schools upon the life of the. women, their Christian character and educa- tion, resulting in splendid types of young womanhood, is going Lo revolu- tionize the work in China. The gov- ernment, seeing that these boys and girls make good, wants these Chris- tian teachers for their schools, wants us to take up their schools, gives small subsidies to help run our schools. In fifteen years there has been an almost total change in the attitude of the government, the foreizner is the coun- sellor in all forms of work. What is the message of the cross of which Paul speaks? It is God’s way of ruling the world through sacrifice, through service, the mass movement by which God is bringing the world to Himself. One should go to the east to learn what Christianity really means, that which Christ meant to es- tablish. It wings its way into the very life of the people in the city, the message of the cross overcoming the philosophy of the world. The great movements of the have been done without money. ey and the grasping for power have cursed the world. The message of the cross is the highest wisdom. God’s method of saving the world is being vindicated today. Missions are a part of .great movements. that shall exalt righteousness, fill the nations with the hristian thoughCt. Your prayers and your help go to the building of Chris- tian nations. By the sigl of the cross the world is to be conquered. ‘world Mon- Entertained at Beebe Home.

Spencer has filed his findings with the clerk of the su- perior court and the attorney general concerning the dpath of Willlam Per- ry Sisson, age seven, son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Sisson, who was struck and killed by an_automobile owned and operated by Walter F. Miller, when on his way from his work in Westerly to hts home in Hopkinton City. The coroner says: “The testimony all seems to agree that the boy éame out from behind the team and that the first that Mr. Mills could have seen of him was when he was right upon him and then too late to do anything to avold the accident. It is evident thal the team obstruct- ed the view and prevented him from seeing the boy any sooner. “There is no evidence that Mr. Mills was in any way driving fast or in a manner that was other than careful. After carefully considering the testi- mony I hereby certify that it is. my opinion and I find that the death of said William Perry- Sisson was caus- ed by being strus: by an automobile owred and driven by Walter Mills. I further find and am of the opinion that said death was causéd by acci- Ceat and unavoidable.” Mrs. Elizabeth McCarthy who had many acquaintances in Westerly, and who formerly resided in Willimantic, died Friday at her home in Provi- dence. She was 'born in Prince Ed- ward Island in 1884, the daughter of Michael and Elizabeth Cantwell and married Dennis F. McCarthy in St. Joseph’s church, Providence, in 1864.

The loco- motive and four cars went over the defect, but the fifth car and the five that followed were deralled, being thrown to both sides. They _were dragged along the rock ballasted road bed fer a distance of several hundred feet, and tore the rails and ties from place in the irregular run. The train the trucks of the four rear cars were town away, and the wreck resembled a tangled mass of steel, and piled high above the average height of a car. None of the cars was capsized, but two of Terryville to the upper apartment of Mr. and Mrs. Abner's house on Hunt- ington avenue. Mr. Brunelle will come later.

TONINGTON Rally Day Exercises—Barough Foot- ball Eleven Defeats Bulkeley—Two Join Tierney League. A leading democrat of the town of Stonington declares that the town would have gone democratic and that Joe Cheesbro would have been clected representative over Cap Wijcox, had the democrats coin enough for the general election expenses. He said that State Central Committeeman John C. Geary sent to the town the munificent sum of $30, that is $6 to each of the five voting districts. Not enough to pay for the use of an automobile to get out the party vote. There was no money to pay for the expense of get- ting voters who were employed out of town, who would like to come home to vote, but could not afford to pay for the transportation. The leading dem- ocrat says there were enough of these class of voters alone in the Pawca- tuck district to insure the election of Cheesbro, who was beaten by less than twenty votes in the town.

Paris, Nov. 12, 12.45 p. m.—A wire- less despatch from Madrid says that It was a German submarine which sank the American steamship Colum- bian. According to this information, the Columbian encountered the submarine on November 8 during a violent tem- pest. The submarine compelled the Columbian to interrupt her voyage and lie-to under surveillance until Novem- ber 8. When the storm subsided, the despatch says, the submarine ordered the crew to abandon ship and then sank her. A Havas despatch from Madrid quotes the newspapers of Corunna, Spain, where the crew is reported to have landed, to the effect that when the Columbian was held up the sub- |’ marine ordered the crew to disem- bark, but that the storm was so severe that this was. impossible until two days later. ‘The despatch also adds that the Nor- wegian steamships Balto and Forda- len weflre destroyed in the same man- ner on November 9. (A report of the sinking of these ships was received from London last night.) Berlin, Saturday, Wireless to The A: Sayville, Nov. 12.)—“The report of the commander of the German submarine whick. sank the British steamship [Rowanmore on board which were sev- eral Americans has been received by the admiralty and indicates that the captain of :he steamship was re- sponsible for her bombardment by the submarine. The report says the Row- anmore disregarded the submarine's signals to halt and endeavored to es- cape at full speed, making it neces- sary for the submarine to fire a few shots in order to bring her to. The crew showed its opinion of the captain’s course, the report says, by piling into boats, leaving the master alone on the steamer. He was forc- ed to lower a boat unaided and was paddling around alone when pick- ed up by the submarine. The Americans on board, as far as can be learned, consisted of several rezro firemen. : The report has been recelved In the case of the Pritish steamship Mari- na, which, with fifty-two Americans _ in her crew, was sunk by a submarine % off the Irish coast. Inasmuch as she Wwas sunk on the same day as was the ‘Rowanmore, a renort is expected soon. Three other cases of the sinking of i steamships have been submitted by the American embassy to the forelgn office. These vessels were destroyed in September. o evidence was pre- . sented in this connection that Ger- - thany’s assurances in regard to the conduet of a submarine warfare have * not been ohserved. No reply has been received by the embassy. Nov. ¥ ° — SIX HEAVY CARS OFF TRACK AT CAROLINA, R. I. Tore Up Both the East and West Bound Tracks and Impeded Traffic Carolina, R. I, Nov. 12—Six heavily loaded cars, part of a mail and ex- press train bound from Boston for New York, on the New York, New Ha- ven and Hartford railroad, left the rails while passing through here early today and were dragged along the roadbed for a considerable distance, tearing up both east and west bound tracks and seriously impeding traffic throughout the day. The accident is believed to have been due to a defec- tive rail. John Barrett, of Norwalk, Conn., a mail clerk, was slighily in- jured. Passenger trains were re-rout- ed while. the damage was being re- paired. Arn informal request for information in reward to the sinking of the Row- anmore and Marina was made to the German rovernment by the Amerfcan gy ment last month. There were two white Americans and five Filipi- nos in the crew of the Rowanmore, all of whom were saved.
