The United Thanksgiving Service in

successful ever held in this city. Rev.
Messrs. Woods, Presbyterian; Land
street, Nj. u. Church south; Holland,
Lutheran; Pitt, Baptist, and Leech,
Meth. Episcopal, with their congrcga-
tions, took part. The singing, led by
the choir of the church, with members
of other choirs and the entire congre-
CATION taking part, was admirable.
Rev. j. II. Pitt delivered the discourse
from John 4:3S, ..Other men labored
and We are entered into their labors.'
1t was excellent and appropriate. The
offerings of the large congregation, ag-
gregating nearly $50, were divided
equally among the ministers who dis.
bursed them TO number of families,
thus making many hearts glad. The
entire occasion was a beautiful exam.
pie of true religious unity, and the re.
joicing appropriate to a thanksgiving
time.

The silver contribution plates sto-
stolen from the Reform church some
time ago, were found by some boy
in pile Of dirt below the gas house
last Sunday. One of the plates had
been cut in two. 1t is supposed that
the theef or thieves, after cutting
the plate in two, and discovering
that they were not solid silver,
threw them in the dirt pile where
they were found. The circumstances
surrounding the affair point to it
as being the work of tramps.
