 tlemanly and well-to-do men of this place re- gently proposed to act as sexton of the Con gregational church, provided the society would not pay him for his services. He is now on duty and discharges his voluntary services with credit to himself and to the comfort and admiration of the congregation. At his suggestion village library has been procured and magazine club formed. He and his excellent wife, the church organ player, devote room to the library, take care of the books and circulate the maga- zines among those subscribing for them. Ap- parently this man and woman know that it eis more blessed to give than to receive , Till within few years they were citizens of New Haven.
 The Governors Thanksgiving proclama- tion was read in the Congregational church last Sunday, the officiating clergyman re- marking that all present must concede that short as it is it is an excellent production.
 One sees with wonder that the General Association of Connecticut Congregational petitions the Governor to refrain from issu ing the customary annual Fast day proclama- tion. Not an over Christian petition. And the Christian petitioners ought to know that the Governor acts in this matter virtually in behalf of the General Assembly and of the good people of the State.

sLOssON KEATS VIGNAUx.
An Exciting Game Between the Great
 Billiard Experts.

A HI 1ACAt1HS Oam6 HeGween the Great
 Billiard Experts.
 CHICAGO, Nov. 16.-Central Music Hall was packed to the doors this evening to wit ness the opening game between Vignaux and Slosson in the great billiard tournament Judge Gary introduced the players to the au- dience in short address. Both Visnaux and Slosson appeared trife nervous Up to the ninth inning no remarkable shots were made and the playing was rather below the average of the two experts. At this point of the game Slosson seemed to get the run of the cush- ions and the speed of the table, The French man kept close to his heels until the seven teenth inning when Slosson by careful play ing added S9 points to his string. In the nineteenth he ran 77, gaining lead which Vignaux was unable to overcome. In the thirtieth inning vignaux, who was now 152 points behind his opponent, went at the worries with deter imitation to run the game out After he had increased his score by 1O6 points he still had the balls in splendid position, but "miscued" on 8 very simple shot, Slosson, who had but five to go, then ran the game out amidst the most deafening applause The following is the score:
 Slosson-1, 13, O. 0, H. O. 6, O. s5, a7, O. 43, aO 10 Q z 89. 9, IT. l, 69 25 16 3, 26 0, fl. l. 63. o, 5-

Assistant Secretary Hunter HI.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-William Hunter,
 second assistant Secretary of State, is ill at
 his home and his associates in the office never expect to see him at his desk again.
 Mr. Hunter is the oldest official in continu-
 ous service living to-day. He was appointed
 a clerk in the State department from Rhode
 Island in 1899 and filled several other posi-
 tions up to 1866, when he was commissioned
 second assistant secre tary, which office he
 still holds There is probably no man living
 to-day so intimately connected with the di
 plomatic affairs of the United States or whose
 knowledge of the diplomatic moves of this
 government is so thorough as that of Will
 liam Hunter. There is little in the secret
 history of the affairs of state of the United
 States with which he is not familiar. His
 most celebrated work was the letter which he wrote to the Austrian government in the Costa case which was signed by Daniel Web ster while sick in bed. The only change in that well known document which MT. Web ster deemed advisable to make was the sub stitution of the word s'cannot" for twill not" in the sentence defining the position of the United States with regard to naturalization. In politics Mir. Hunter was staunch Demo- crat. He frequently asserted the strength of his Democracy and always added: sI have not voted in fifty years"
 Friends of MT. Hunter say tonight that while he is very ill there is no immediate ap- prehension felt, that it is quite probable that he will finger for several weeks and may re- gain sufficient strength to get about again.

front of the newspaper offices eagerly waiting for news of Riel's hanging. Even then the belief was expressed that something might occur to prevent his execution and bets were made-one man betting $2O-that he would not be hanged. When the news of the hang ing arrived the crowds quietly dispersed There was no disturbance.
 QUEBEC, Nov. 16.-The excitement here over Rlels execution is indescribab1e. Many French Canadians shed tears when the news was received. Their tears were turned to re- joicing, however, when the news was re- celved that he had died game. Although agltated in the extreme no outbreak has oc- cured. The Cabinet ministers are criticised greatly on all sides. A public meeting is to take place at St. Roche tonight. Some trou- ble is expected there

A Murderer Forced to Confess

NORFOLK, Nov. 16-Noah Cherry, the ne gro who murdered little Alice Powell in Princess Anne on Friday last, was taken from jail last night and hanged to tree. His body was afterward riddled with bullets When taken from the jail Cherry was only partially dressed, having on his shirt, trous- CTS and socks. He was taken down the road about quarter of mile to the Hickory Bridge school house, the place selected for his execution. Upon arriving there he was told that he had but short time to live. In response to questions he gave two versions of the murder, first saying that another ne gro committed it, but upon being told his wet clothes had been found with the books rolled up in them he confessed the truth and said revenge was his motive. He said that the deed was committed with an axe. He described how he waited in the road for lit tie Alice. She was on the opposite side of the road coming towards him singing E'In the Sweet Bye and Bye" When he made the attack she made no outcry, but when he dragged her into the path she said 70 Lord, have mercy on my soul" The brute said he carried her into the pine thicket where he killed her with the axe and afterwards hear ing somebody coming down the road took hold of her feet and dragged her further into the thicket

About 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon Al bert c. Williams was arrested for keeping policy shop. His place is on Union street, of "slips" and records of the drawings was found in his possession. A person who says he bought slips of Williams will also be used witness.
 Dominick Breneieri, who keeps place at 352 West Water street, was arrested last evening for violation of the Sunday liquor law and also for selling liquor without li- cense.
 James Cunningham was arrested last even ing for breach of the peace. He was fight ing with Charles Harden.
 Patrick Early and his amiab1e @ wife Rose, when they moved from their domicile on Dow street where they had been terror to the neighborhood for many years, landed in "Sandy Hollow" A brief stay in that locality and they took their departure, locating this time among the quiet people on Elm street in the vicinity of Garden street. Their whereabouts did not long remain mystery to the police, how ever, for last evening call was sent to the police office announcing that 8 TOW was in progress at 514 Elm street The patrol wagon and stalwart policeman were quickly sent, and on reaching the place it was found that Patrick Early had located there and had aroused the whole neighborhood by his loud and profane talk, which he was dealing out unstintedly to his wife Rose. Everybody was in the street and the neighbors thought murder was being perpetrated. Rose was sober for a wonder and was not disturbed, but Patrick was hur ried to the police station.

cited.
 MONTREAL, Nov. 16.-There was much ex- citement among the French Canadians here when the news of Riel's execution was re- ceived. French Canadian students in num- Der about five hundred carrying the tri-color marched through several streets in the city giving vent to cheers for Riel and denouncing Sir John. They groaned as they passed La Minerva office. Flags are at half-mast in many parts of the city.
 Flags were half-neasted upon some of the French Canadian newspaper offices and pie lures of Chapleau and other French Canadi- an Cabinet ministers were exposed in the windows with representations of Riel's blood on their heads Loud threats were made against Chapleau, Langevin, Sir John and other members of the government. At regular meeting of the city council this afternoon Alderman Gamer moved a vote of censure upon the government for having hanged Riel and that the council ad- iourn out of respect to his memory. The chambers were packed with sympathizers and after several speeches had been made the motion carried, two of the seven English speaking alder men present voting in the affirmative, and the council adjourned. Tonight 8 crowd of about one thousand French Cana dians assembled on the Champ de Mars, the number being swelled by the usual crowd of | curiosity seekers. Efigies of Sir John, Chapleau, Langevin and other Cabinet min 1 isters were burned and @ procession was | formed and marched through the principal streets singing "LaMarseillaise" and carrying notices inscribed "To Our Martyr | Hero Riel-Down with Judge | Richardson-Down with Chapleau." <" Passing the English newspaper office groans
 were given, which compliment was repeated
 at the Windsor Hotel and other public places. The processionists were quite orderly an
 apart from their singing no breach of the peace was committed. They returned home in little knots. No further trouble is antiei- pated The armories are all guarded to- night and the Victoria Rifles were under arms, their annual examination taking place to- l night.

MEDFoRD, Mass, Nov. 16.-Ernest L. Harndon, proprietor of the skating rink, has paid attention to the daughter of Henry A. Walker, of West Medway, for several months and was believed to be single. Mrs. Harm don turned up from Boston this morning and claimed him. He was married to Emily Houghton, of Attleboro, February 23, 1884. and they lived together till last June, when he deserted her. She saw his address in the ssRinklets" and wrote to him. He asked un- successfully that she should claim to be his cousin. Miss Walker refuses to tolerate him longer.
