Improvements i'm State street Church.

~PASFO-AkChts Ah St0tC StHOCs
During the past few weeks in which State
street Church has been closed marked improve
ments have been made in the interior. 1t will
be reopened for service tomorrow, the repairs
having been completed, and those who have
not visited it since it was closed will be very
agreeably surprised at the general appearance.
AS the fresco is perhaps the most marked OF
the Improvements, mention of that first may
not be out of place. The work has been very
faithfully done by Charles j. Schumacher, and
those who have visited the church are highly
pleased with the result. The ceiling is painted
with light green laid out in panels of drab
style with cone mouldings and gold line in each
panel. The walls are as before, blocked in
imitation of Cayenne stone, andIthe imitation
is as good as ever seen in New England. The
recess for the desk has been greatly improved.
Formerly it was too high and looked out of
proportion to the audience room, but the care
full touches given it has changed the effect en-
tirely. 1t is now filed with pretty tracsry en-
twined with gold. ornaments in the panels.
On either side of the re cess are modest looking
tablets in Gothic style. upon which are scrip
tural passages in gold letters, the ground being
rich brown. The lettering was done by
Thomas Jones, and is very fine piece of work.
The following are the passages upon the tab
let's
There is one God and one mediator between
God and man. the man Christ Jesus. But if
the spirit of Him that raised up Jesus from
the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ
from the dead shall also quicken your mortal
bodies by His spirit that dwelleth in you.
Thus saith the high and lofty one that in
habteth eternity whose name is Holy. L dwell
in the high and holy place with Him also that
is also of a contrte and humble spirit. The
same Lord over all is rich unto all that call
upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the
name of the Lord shall be saved.
New windows of the latest pattern of Cathe-
dral glass have been put in. Good judges say
that there is no finer specimen of stained glass
in the city. Each window has beautiful en-
blem at the top. Ths following are the en-
blems:-The Lamb, 81. Fl. 81, tie Lily
emblem of st. Joseph, Crown and Cross,
Alpha, Omega, the triangle representing the
Trinity, the Sacrament. the Revelation and the
Dove. The emblems are Of very beautiful de-
sign and of peculiar significance.
The wood work has been repaired and reno
waited by Mr.. Washington Libby, and now
looks as good as new. New steps leading to
the church and also from the audience room to
the desk. also from the pastors study to the
desk have been constructed. The gas fixtures
have been rebronzed and present fine appear
ance. A new carpet of handsome design covers
the floor, while the pews have received new
cushions

DANIEL NEEDHAM,
Secretary N. E. Ag. Society

a THIN SToRY.-Yesterday morning, about
o'clock, man giving the name of M, NJ Gil
bert and representing himself as drover from
Lewiston, called at the police station and stat
ed that he had been robbed on the steamer
John Brooks. He said that he retired at
o'clock in the gentlemen's cabin, first taking
off his coat placing his watch in the inside
pocket, and coat and watch under his head.
When he awoke he noticed strong cdor of
chloroform. His vest had been slit across by
some sharp instrument, and his pocket book,
containing $2400. was gone. The money con-
sisted of seven 800 bills, seven $50 bills, and
coat and watch were safe.
The strange part of the affair is that this
man who reports that he was robbed of $24O0
did not report the matter to the officers of the
steamer, nor to the agent of the company. The
first information they had of the affair was a
letter received from friend in Lewiston to j.
B. Coyle, Jr., stating that he would probably
learn that man named Gilbert had lost a
sum of money, but that little stock should be
taken in the story until it was investigated.
This letter was received at 5 O'Clock, ard on
going to the boat nothing could be learned of
the affair. No chloroform had been smell
and the usual watches had been on duty, thus
rendering the robbery simply impossible.
There has never been a robbery committed on
these boats and the strctest watch is kept to
prevent it. The officers are unusually vigilant
in this respect, as their record shows, and they
consider it utterly impossible that the robbery
could have taken place as reported. The
maBy friends and patrons of this popular line
would be surprised to learn that the boats had
become infested by a pack of thieves who
plumber the passengers at will.

Our village is now returning to its accustom-

mer visitors have nearly all returned to their
city homes. One and all express themselves
much pleased with this magnificent country
resort and propose to come again another sea-
son.
The church edifce erected by the Methodist
Society is completed, and it has been turned
over to the trustees. 1t is very fine building
and adds much to the beauty of our village
The dedicatory services will probably take place
sometime in October.
Prof. Harper, assistant teacher in our Nor
NAL School, is recovering from his late serious
illness. Prof. 81. has recently moved in our
midst. but he has already made many warm
friends both in and out the school. His family
had been here from Michigan but short time
before they were deprived by death of their
only child. In this their great bereavement
they have many earnest sympathizers.
Rev. Jacob Abbott, the noted author, is re-
siding here now permanently. His country
residence here, "Fewacres,' is a model of beauty
and elegance.
