PEACE SOCIETY.

Third AnmMal Meeting of tho Mothers
Peace Society n eadt,tg and Hpe0king-
Election Of officers.
The third annual meeting of the Mothers
Peace Society, of this city, was held yester-
day afternoon in the First Unitarian
Church, Mrs. Fielder Israel in the chair.
The meeting opened with devotional exer-
cises, conducted by Rev. Mr.. Israel.
The Secretary, Miss Emma Worrell, read
an interesting letter from Julia Ward Howe
after which the President read an essay on
"War," from the "Friends in Council" !"
This was followed by an essay from W. E.
Channing's writings, entitled "The Bles-
sings of Peace" which was read by Mrs.
Warner. Mrs. Israel then announced that
the Society would be happy to hear from
any present, whereupon Mrs. Albert Smith
arose and addressed the meeting for few
moments. She said that while listening to
the reading of the essays, she was reminded
of the words of Jesus of Nazareth, which
he uttered in his sermon on the Mount
"Blessed are the peace makers, for they
are the children of God" "Jesus Christ"
she said, "laid down his life to illustrate
this principle of peace" She thought that
the world had advanced but slowly in 1900
years toward right understanding OF the
principles as taught by Jesus.
Rev. Mr.. Israel, DR.. Hicks and Miss
Emma Worrell followed with remarks ap-
propriate to the occasion. The society then
went into an election of officers, with the
following result
President, Mrs. Fielder Israel; Secretary,
Miss Emma Worrell; Executive Committee,
Mrs. NJ. A. Fulton, Chairman; Miss Anna
White, Mrs. s. s. Butler, Allen Gawthrop,
DR.. Thomas Hicks.
The meeting was interesting throughout, !,
and should have been more largely attended.
Among the floral offerings were some very
handsome bouquets and baskets of flowers.

ANOTHER VlLLAINoUs ATTACK. - Last
week we mentioned an attempt to shoot
and rob young man named Monnin on
the Berlin road, near the Poor House.
On last Thursday evening, as Rev. L.
M. Kuhns and wife were returning to
town in a buggy, from the residence of
Mr.. Ruthrauf, near Berlin, they were
startled in similar manner, near the
same spot where young Monnin was at
tackled. AS they were coming along
they heard a sudden pistol shot short
distance ahead of them, which was fol-
lowed by command to "halt," but Mr..
Kuhns gave his horse a cut, and it start
ed away at lively rate, and as they
passed the villain in the road, he at
tempted to grasp the reins but was un-
successful, and as they sailed by him he
ran after, yelling and commanding them
to stop, but the horse made better time
than the villain, and they escaped. If
some lonely but resolute traveller causes
a corpse to be discovered on the Berlin
road some night the community will be
grateful.
