MT. Hine ImprovIng-Th The Roads Lively With Teams-Personal Jot- ttngs.
 Warden Rollin Hine improves in health slowly, but is not able to attend to business. He is able to ride out little. He was con- fined to the house about two months with nervous prostration. Luther Fowler was out with the patent road scraper last week grading the different avenues where needed, and there is no place in the State where the driveways are kept in as good condition as they are in West Haven borou h.
 Frank Hale is still very sick at his resi- dence on Center street. The different avenues leading to the shore were lined with vehicles of every descrip- tion all yesterday afternoon. The borough and the shore never had so inviting an appearance as now. The different shade trees have put on their autumn dress and the foliage looks splendid it it's variegated col ors.
 Letters from Mrs. Warren Dill from Fargo Dakota, states that MT Dill's farming ven ture has been success. The past season he has raised {, 900 bushels of wheat and 800 bushels each of corn and oats, besides other products. She also states that the health of Mrs. Dexter Dill, her husbands mother, who formerly resided on Howard avenue in this city, is in 8 very critical condition. She had stroke of paralysis about three weeks ago.
 Business is very brisk in all the manufac- tories in the borough, which makes both em- ployers and employees feel happy.
 Water pipes are being laid on Washington avenue, between Elm street and West Haven Buckle O. shop.

DeaIh of Child

MT. and Mrs. Daniel Gilhuly lost yester. day ther little son, aged thirteen months, who died after a three months illness with cholera infantum. When a change of air was ordered by the physicians a member of the family accompanied the child to West Haven, where a portion of the summer was passed, after which, as another change was advised, he was removed from the shore tc the country with the hope that the change would prove beneficial. All efforts in its behalf proved unavailing and he was taken home, where he died Saturday night. The neighbors and many friends of the family, with whom the little fellow was general favorite, mourn with them in their bereave, ment and sympathize with the family in their loss. The funeral will be attended to- day at p. m. from the residence of the family, No. 57 St. John street.

CHRIST CHURCH.
Interesting Harvest Festival Exercise

Interesting Harvest Festival Exercises
 Held Yesterday Morn1ng-SermOn on by
 Rector Van Deerlin.
 At harvest festival yesterday at Christ church an appropriate sermon was preached in the morning by the pastor, Rev. C.. J. H. Van DeeTlin. The chancel was trimmed and decorated with all kinds of autumnal fruits. The sacred desk was a mass of choice grapes, pears and apples. In front and at the edges of the altar punches of barley and wheat were strewn. The scene was very significant. The pastors text was:
 when ye have gathered in the fruit of the land ye shall keep feast unto the Lord.'' Leviticus, 2ad chapter, 39th verse
 We are met together today, said the pas tor, to praise God with joyful and thankful hearts for the blessings of harvest. And this is good and right. If we Christians did not have these harvest Thanksgiving services we should be far less thankful than were the Jews. They had three great festivals every year, each of which was in a Thanksgiving service, and their harvest festival was usually one of great joy. The tss'' ss bppas sf Rs o S. bsv fsp at when sheaf of the first ripe corn was waved before the Lord in deyout thankful ness to him who openeth his hand and filleth all things living with plenteousness. At the Feast of Pentecost also two loaves of fine flour were offered as first fruits unto the Lord. The feast of Tabernacle was also the feast of ingatherings. When the corn and wine was being gathered in they met to "praise the Lord for bis goodness and to de- clare the wonders that he doeth unto the children of men," Let us never forget sol emn theme for reflection which harvest ought always to suggest. When the grain is falling before the reapers in the fields and the autumn wind is sweeping the faded leaves from the trees, think of that other harvest which is the end of the world, when every eye shall see the Son of Man seated in cloud and every ear shall hear the angels voice proclaiming, "Thrust in thy sickle and reap, for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest Of the earth is ripe" Each season, like the pres ent, should serve as call to us from the book of nature bidding us look beyond the dull fields of this lower world with it's storms and strife and turmoil, to the peaceful gar den of paradise, shining in the light of love, and watered by the crystal fountains of the river of life. And at the last great day when we are callad to give account of our stewardship and to answer for the talents entrusted to us, may we not be rejected, but be counted worthy of a place among the wheat that shall be carried by rejoicing an gels into the joyful shelter of His harvest store.
 The evening service at Christ church was a continuation of the harvest festival.

THE GREAT EXPLOSION.
Professor Waldo of Vale Observatory and the Vibrating Waves Travels The Shock Not Felt Heres

professor Waldo of Yale Observatory
 and the Vibrating Waves Travels
 The Shock Not Felt Here.
 Dr. Leonard Waldo, of the Yale observa tory at this city, was on board the Castleton during the explosion of Flood rock Saturday.
 He left this city early in the morning, pre-
 pared to take the exact time ot the explosion for the purpose of comparing with observers
 at Yale in making computations as to the
 rate at which the vibratory wave travelled
 along the earth's surface. Dr. Waldo said
 that this explosion was one of the few oppor-
 tunities offered to scientists to make such a
 computation, earthquakes unfortunately not
 being announced beforehand. He doubted,
 however, whether the tremor would reach
 this city, a distance of seventy-four miles in
 direct line. Sidereal observations were
 taken on Friday night in this city for the
 purpose of getting the exact meridian time at this point. Dr. Waldo set trustworthy timepiece exactly in accord with those at the observatory and took it with him. At the observatory the operators had placed glass tubes containing mercury on stone piers which set deep in the ground. Each tube of l mercury was placed so that it would reflect 6 ray of light on a screen. If the tremor reached this city the mercury would vibrate and the reflection on the screen would shake. The observers would take the exact time and compare it with Dr. Waldo's timing of the explosion. Dr. Waldo timed the explosion at precisely 11:14 by seventy fifth meridian time.
 At the observatory last evening it was as certained that the shock had not been felt in this city in the least, shown by the tubes containing the mercury.
 Captain Fred H. Peck of the c. H. Nor than was as near as anyone at the scene of the explosion. He was with Commodore Boyd on the United States flagship Tennes-
 see of the north Atlantic squadron, on the little launch of the Tennessee, which was located 1 1000 feet from the disrupted area. The launch was not shaken by the shock. A slight jar was felt. A sudden turn of the
 launch's screw would have produced sim. liar effect. Captain Peck says that the sight was one of indescribable grandeur. An i'm mense wall of water shot into the air directly in front of him, foaming at the summit and terraced on the sides, resembling for the
 nonce bubling iceburg. It was hardly
 recognized when it collapsed.

Lincoln Rink.

 Edward R. Parry-Miss Mary s. Good-
 win.
 MT. Edward R. Parry, of New Haven, is to be married on next Wednesday evening to Miss Mary S., only daughter of George F. Goodwin, of Westville. The ceremony will be performed by Rev. A. H. Mead at the brides home in Westville. After the we'd ding Mr. and Mrs. Parry will go to New York by boat, thence up the Hudson river on Thursday, which will afford an opportu- nity to view the beautiful river scenery by daylight. From Albany the couple intend to make a weeks tour of New York State, after which they will pass week in the State of Vermont, returning to this city after visit at Springfield, Mass.
 MT. Parry has been for four years connect ed with the State street firm Coburn 6 Co.,, and to be connected for that length of time with a firm of the standing of Coburn & Co. is a sufficient recommendation.
 For several years MT. Parry has been a member of the Sassacus drum corps, and was with the drum corps on the 2nd of last Sep tember when they won the first prize at the competitive tournament. After the wedding trip Mr. and Mrs. Parry will reside in this city.
 Through MT. Parry's connection with the firm and with the drum corps he has formed an extended acquaintance which has ripened into many friendships. The young couple will have the best wishes of their numerous friends
