Union Lent Service.

Rev. Dr. Spencer Trenches at Trinity on
 Responsibility in Respect to Belief
 A large congregation attended the first united service of Lent at Trinity last even- ing. Revs. Spencer, Harwoed, Sanford, Lines, Means, Vibbert, Crockett, BeardsIey, Beckwith, Spencer and Nichols were present.
 Rev. Dr. Spencer preached the sermon, taking for his text eighth chapter of St. Johns gospel and forty-sixth verse. He con- sidered the moral sense in man. Without that sense there could be no social organism It must be 8 part of mans selfhood. The supernatural element must be admitted or conscience must be denied. Mans moral sense originGt in God, whose witness it is, and apart from him it is inexplicabIe. We owe this to God. Conscience means re- spensibility. We must give account of our selves to God. A mans true self lies in that wherein he is deferential and set of from other animals His life is in what he does. He is revealed to himself by the complex activities of his mind A knowledge of ones real beliefs is of great importance. What we believe gives force and character to the inner life Our beliefs have moulding power. God sum- mons us to think and to believe. Reason pieroes superstition and banishes it. It can- not anticipate the thoughts of God. It isnot strange that some things are inscrutabIe. Reason sees much that she does not com. prehend. The mode of the divine existence is inscrutable. It is not the mission of reason to pierce mysteries.
 It is sometimes said that we cannot con- trol our beliefs. This idea is put at rest by the lawless fashion of thinking on this very subject. How frequently caprice forms be- lief. It is said also that whatever a man be- ieves is truth for him. This is the same as saying that lie is as good as the truth. Ask yourself the question, can man make truth? Truth is here confounded with fslsehood, darkness with light. Truth is Gods reflection Tn the mind of man. Here we are brought lace to face with the responsibility of our be- lief It should solemnize every heart. To have been wrong in our belief cannot be the same as being right. Few are innocently wrong. Truthis is outside our being and is ap- propriated only as it is loved. Until we are inspired with right beliefs we may be sure that our hearts are possessed by some sin "He that believeth not is condemned al. ready" The wrath of God is upon him. Jesus Christ asked. "If say the truth why do ye not believe me?''

The ChappelI Murder.

The Arrest of Oliver Kingsley, Sneak
 ThIsE-CIafms His InnOcence.-
 Oliver Kingsley, who was arrested Tuesday afternoon on suspicion of being the murder CT of Harvey Chsppell, of Lebanon, belongs in Lebanon, and was seen about Chappell's house on the night of the murder. His statements as to his whereabouts on the night of the murder are conflicting.
 He is the son of the late Thomas Jefferson Kingsley, of Lebanon, and is 35 years old. Several years ago he inherited 5000 from his father. He went to WilIimantic and bought out liquor saloon and dressed in broadcIoth and silk velvet, and at the end of nine months had squandered all that he in- herited. As soon as he was out of funds he took to stealing and has been sent to jail several times for petty thieving. He is the fellow who broke jail and ran through the streets of Willimantic in broad daylight, few years ago, with nothing on but pair of handcuffs. He eluded pursuit, however, had the hand cuffs cut off his wrists and got into a secend hand suit of clothes before he was captured. When arrested, he admitted that he was in the neiPhborhood of Chappell's house, and pretehded that he spent Tuesday evening. February 19, with neighbor near by, but the neighbor denied KingsIey's story. He then told several conflicting statements as to his whereabouts during the night of the murder. He positively denies that he had anything to do with it.
