County Conference of congregational
ChurchaS

The annual county conference of the
Congregational churches of Addison
met with the church in Orwell, May 20
and 80. Owing to the unpropitiOus
weather. the conference did not organize
until 3 o'clock p. m. of the first day,
instead of 10 80 a. m. as was the plan TO
do. This delay crowded the work of the
first day. But the regular programme
for the second day was carried out with
out extras and proved interesting and
profitable. The churches were quite
well represented, considering the wealth
er. The discussions of all the topics
were well opened by the several pastors
and laymen appointed to that duty, and
promptly participated in by as many
delegates as time would permit. The
programme, as originally prepared, was
as follows:

DECORATION day has come to be the
only day of patriotic observances. The
Fourth of July, which fifty or sixty
years ago gave opportunity to the orator
who would speak of the country's his
tory and future, has degenerated into a
mere holiday, without significance. The
event it commemorate is too far in the
past to mean much. But with Memorial
day the case is different. The struggle
which it brings to mind is yet fresh in
the memories of men and Yet
there are indications-not in this vicinity,
however-that Memorial day, too. will
before many years degenerate into Il sim
pie holiday. This is perhaps to be eX-
pected, but it is worth the while to keep
up its appropriate ceremonies as long as
possible, foi the sake of the education in
patriotism it gives to the younger gener-
ations, if for no other reason.

GENERAL CROOK is fighting the
Apachcs; but reports of his doings are
contradictory. One day it is said he has
achieved a victory owe the hostiles, and
the next that his forces have been over
powered. The latest is that with 800
troops he fought 100 Indians and killed
80. 1t is supposed he keeps his move
ments secret because he has been so
severely criticized for what he has done
heretofore.

he HAD men IN his employment who
