Interesting Exercises By the Bibl School Last Evening.

Interesting Exercises By tho Bible School Last Evening.
 At Trinity M E. church last evening there an interesting Christmas service by the Bible school. The school occupied the cen tral portion of the church, only the seats ad- jacent to the side aisles being open to the public. The church was filled to it's utmost capacity, the large school (about six hundred members) occupying large portion of the space. The preachers desk and choir gal lery were tastefully decorated with ever greens and flowers, which added to the beau .ty of the scene. Neatly printed programmes were provided for members of the school and congregation and were entitled "Gifts for Christmas Tide"
 The exercises, which were under the direc- ton of Superintendent Charles P. Arm strong, opened with singing by the school and congregation, the selection being from the ''Epworth Hymnal.' It was the cid fla miliar hymn set to the tune "Antioch" and commencing
 Joy to the world, the Lord is come"
 Responsive readings followed by the super intendent and congregation. Prayer by the pastor, Rev Dr. Peck, followed. After the prayer the first part, ssGifts at Bethlehem, D followed, the subject being "The Gift of God" Responsive readings by the superin- tendent and school were next on the pro- gramme and on the conclusion of the reading the school sang very beautifully the hymn commencing,
 ''This is the winter morn Our Saviour Christ was born"
 In the parts which followed and which were made up of responsive readings of ap- propriate selections of scripture and sing ing appropriate hymns the following "gifts'' were enumerated at the head of each section of the service: sThe Gift of the Angels" 'sThe Gifts of the Wise Men, 3 t'The Gift of Ourselves" 'tThe Gift of our Love" "The Gift of our Praise" and "The Gift of our Charity" The exercises were interspersed with appropriate readings by members of the school, which added interest to the occasion.
 The exercises concluded with short ad- dress by Rev. Dr. Peck, his subject being 'For Sweet Charity's Sake" The collection of Christmas offerings was then made and amounted to very handsome sum- The concluding hymn, "God be with you till we meet again, was then sung, the pastor pro nounced the benediction and the interesting exercises were brought to close.

A Good Deed.

correspondent says: Through specially commendable efforts of Captain Frank Hin man, whose articles in New York journals placed prominently before the public the un- fortunate case of F. O. Ross, who has been imprisoned in Ludlow street jail more than six years for an $500 debt incurred by a de- faulting partner, Ross at last received help from Eurastus Wiman of Staten Island fame and through their efforts was last week re- leased.
 Hinnan has visited MT. Ross frequently the last month and has devoted his time al- most wholly to accomplish this successful re- suit.
 The case of MT. Ross more in detail is as follows: F. O. Ross, Canadian, was six years ago in partnership with man in New York who absconded with the funds of the firm after running into debt some $500. When this happened Ross was absent on a wedding trip and on his return he was ar rested and jailed. His case was carried to the Court of Appeals, which confirmed the judgment and the Supreme court could not relieve him. At the end of three years he got bail, but was soon surrendered and re- mained in prison until friend, learning of the case, satisfied the debt and MT. Ross was released to go home to his wife.
