Easter Morning Servtcs-FIns Singing
 and an Impressive Sermon.
 A large congregation attended the morn- ing service at St. Pauls's church yesterday. Large banks of flowers graced the chancel railing and upon the altar were Q cross of lilies and two bouquets. The singing was especially fine and appropriate. The rector, Rev. Edwin s. Lines, preached the sermon. His text was taken from the twenty-thlrd verse of the fifteenth chapter of the first epistle of Paul to the Corinthi ars, 'Bus every man in his own order; Christ the frs fruits; afterwards they that are Christ's at his coming" The preacher spoke of the Jewish passover first as being similar to the Christian passover to which we have been brought once more in that the first fruits are offered up. The first great truth that is prominent in connection with the Easter season is deliverance. The children of Israel were delivered from the bondage of Egypt. This is our day of passover and we celebrate Christ's dsliverance from the bond age of death. Sad would it have been for us if the last words spoken about Jesus had been that he had been crucifed. By his ris- ing we have joy and hope.
 Christ the first fruits. The inheritance of tho first Adam is sin and condemnation: of the second Adam, life and mercy. In Adam came the first fruits of a harvest of sorrow, pain and death; in Jesus Christ came the first fruits of hope, blessing and life. He was the first to come back from the grave with the assurance that death has no power over him. and it is 8 truth of the richest meaning that he came as a man to triumph for men over death It is one of the most important truths of our religion. One after another we fall; the grave closes over us and our lives seem. for time blighted- The wise men of the earth can tell us nothing that will console us. Wisdom and learning of as little worth as wealth and power beside the open grave. We need word out of the land of everlasting life. We need to know that death has been conquered.
 Note the closing words of the text, "After- l wards they that are Christ's at his coming. , l In the great order Christ comes first. Only l his followers rise after him. If we wish to make sure of our places then we must make | sure Of our places now. If we suffer, we shall also reign with him. The time may not be long ere we shall be called to pass l through the valley of the shadow of death. In the afternoon very interesting Sunday
 school festival was held in the church, ] Carolg were sung and the offerings presented as usual. The school is very prosperous.

A Beautiful Floral DIspIay-sermOn by
 Rev. MT. Bray.
 The pastor, Rev. Mir. Bray, preached an Easter sermon at Humphrey street Congre- gational church yesterday morning. He read the goth chapter of Ss. John's gospel which was the basis of his remarks, the subject in brief being Ohrist's resurrection from the death and the joy of that event, and it's promise in all the ages to the Christian of hope beyond this vale of tears. He drew beautiful lesson from the present season, the change from the habilimsnts of decay and death to the bursting of the buds and the opening of the flowers, the change from winters garb to the indications of re- newed life on every hand. Christs resurrec- tion, to the Christian, meant the promise of hope beyond and of eternal life.
 On either side of the sacred desk were ele- gant floral displays and 8 wreath of vines added to the Easter decorations. The pastor in his announcements gave notice of the com bination concert soon to be given at the Carll Opera House by the Yale and Wesleyan Glee clubs He said it afforded him special pleas ure as the concert would be given for the benefit of the Methodist church in Tor1ing- ton, of which he was formerly pastor. This church had debt upon it, incurred in giving it needed improvements, and one change had to be made in order to remedy defective acoustic properties of the edifce. Extra re- viyal meetings will he continued at Hum phrey street church this week.

 psnsss-Eiantic Land Purchase Post.
 pOned.
 The Waterbury military circles are natur- ally astir over the succession to the colcnelcy of the Fourth regiment rendered vacant by the death of Colonel Crefut. Major T. L. Wat son, of Bridgeport, and Lieutenant Colonel Skinner, of Waterbury, are most prominent ly talked of for the position, the Bridgeport company being solid for Watson, although to take him would be going outside the regi4 ment for colonel, which is not ''according to Hoyle," as the Waterbury boys cont end. RtilI the choice of Major Watson is strongly urged by some as the best, all things consid cred, for the interest of the regiment. The name of Captain Christian Quinn, of Dan bury, is also mentioned for the position He is a war veteran. Some who claim to be posted think victory will perch finally with the packers of Lieutenant Colonel Skinner.
 The following were the members of the Blues qualified to compete for badges at Quinnipiac range on Friday Sergeant Q. l.. Parsons, Sergeant W. Beach, Corporal Phil. Jerold, Corporal John Scranton, Corr poral Chas Merwin, Corporal Chas. Hofack- CT. The shooting was at 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 yards. Every man present qualified at the 100 yard range, and all but two qual- flied at 200 yards
 The Second regiment question puzzles the quartermaster general. The armory asso- citation proposes to step down and out on May 1. Since the Second regiment armory has been occupied 1t has been in the hands of what has been designated as an armory association, composed of all the commission cd officers of the regiment As has already been said, this association in order to defray expenses, (of heating, lighting and the jani- tor) was compelled to rent the armory, and it has been rented so much that but little opportunity has been af- forded for what might be desig- mated as it's legitimate uses. As the vari- ous companies were deprived of their regular drills much dissatisfaction arose, and the complaints became SO numerous that the committee in charge were directed to turn the custody of the armory over to the State. General McManus will be in town this week, when meeting of the officers will probably be held to see if some amicable settlement of the difficulties cannot be made.
 The camp at Nisntic will not, probably, be enlarged this year, as too high a price is asked for the land that IS wanted for the ex- tension. The last Legislature voted an sp~ propriation of $5 500 to buy additional land and grade it for tho required purpose Quartermaster General McManus was at Mantle last week and being unable to come to an agreement with the owners of the prop erty desired, he has declined to purchase at the prices named. The piece wanted is To- cated on the extgeme east end of the ground and consists of about six acres. That pore tion owned by Mrs. Werner $2, POO is asked for. while the Smith heirs demand $1 900 for their piece. The prices asked are considered too high and General McManus has indedn- itely postponed the subject.
