 and South.
 A convention of the National Congrega- l tional Benevolent societies was held yester- day at the College street church. An atten- tive and appreciative audience of seventy or eighty persons were at the morning session and about one hundred and fifty at the after noon. Seven cooperative missionary and educational Congregational societies were represented. All the addresses were of the
 first order and of very friendly and general interest The Rev. MT. Kelsey presided and introduced each speaker very happily and appropriately with feeling words of explana- ton and courtesy. MT. Cobb, of New York, secretary of the American Congregational Union, gave a full, clear and impressive ac- count of ald in church building work at the West and in the frontier settlements, the founding of schools. Sunday schools, acade- mics and colleges. Facts Illustrating the methods pursued and the more than success full results of the societies. work were related. American Missionary association, the next
 
 thought in an address carefully prepared and full of interesting information. He spoke chiefly of the education of the colored people in the South and the Indians in the West. ''The Building Up of the Sunday Schools in the West and South" was dis cussed by Rev. E. Dunning of Boston, sec- retary of the Congregational Sunday School Union. Several of the clergy present took part in the general discussion of these sub- iects. At 12 o'clock the convention adjourned for dinner.
 The larger afternoon audience added great ly to the interest of the addresses. Dr. In- crease N. Tarbox, the first speaker, spoke of education as the peculiar and important feat ure in New England colonies from their first landing in America. Seventy of these early colonists were college graduates, fired with zeal for high education. Harvard college was founded only eight years after the set clement in Boston. Its graduates, as pas tors of churches, magistrates and men of learning, impressed the people with the value and importance of education. The Educational society was founded in 1915. Christian education is and ever was it's ob- years of this country was alluded to, the ef- fects of war and foreign inadel influ- ence. This was overcome by seasons of great revival in which Timothy Dwight had conspicuous part. The speak CT continued his interesting historical ac- count to the present time. Miss Garter, the lady teacher from Lehigh, in Utah, was is- tened to with thrilling attention. One so gifted and rightly fitted for her grand good work of teaching Mormon youth and children has never before been found. Her one or two years work has been full of usefulness. MT. Blanchard and others gave addresses of great interest.

A Brilliant Meteor and an Earthquake i'm
 Connecticut


 Many Guilford people saw a very bright and large meteor Tuesday evening at 10 o'clock and it is believed it was the same seen in Norwich at about the same time It was very brilliant. Cautiously enough an earthquake shock was felt in some places and simultaneously with the appearance Of the meteor. The meteor shot through the heav- ems from east to west. It of course had nothing to do with the earthquake. The earthquake was strongly felt at Norwich, rattling the houses, and was also very dis tinctly manifested in Hartford. It was &C., companied at Hartford hy deep, sudden rumbling noise, like the sound of some enor- mously heavy vehicle passing in the street, which jared the houses. There it was but momentary; in Norwich it appears to have been a little longer and in Newport, Rhode Island, there were two shocks. There, as in eastern Connecticut it was quite 8 sharp shock, and caused some excitement. The shock was indeed so severe that the officers at the torpedo station thought the magazine had exploded.
