THE BAPTIST oHURCHEs.

Union Thanksgiving Exercises at Cal-
 vary Baptist Church-A Large At-
 temdance-Addresses by Local Pas-
 eors.
 The Baptists of the city held their Thanks giving exercises last night at Calvary Baptist church. There was large congregation pres- ent, representing the various churches of the denomination.
 The plan of holding the Thanksgiving ser vice on Thanksgiving evening has thus far attendance is secured than when the service was held in the forenoon as formerly.
 Rev.Mr. Poteat of the Calvary church con. ducted the exercises, and the rest of the Bap- tist clergy of the city occupied seats on the platform.
 The meeting was opened with singing and after prayer and scripture reading a collec- tion was taken for the Baptist Ministers Home of New York, in which it ia said there Is former New Haven minister who has been reduced in circumstances through ill., health.
 Rev. MT. Evans of the Grand avenue church was the first speaker. He laid stress upon the fact that thankfnlness is due for what is known as the everyday bleesings. He made an appeal for stronger and closer recogniz- ance of the imminence of God.
 Rev. MT. Butrick of the First Baptist re- counted what is his idea of Thanksgiving and told in wonderful simplicity how in his younger days 1t was observed before pros claimed by the Governor and President.
 He spoke for the home attachments which are made prominent on the day and said that the home is one of the things that is fast going out of existence.
 Rev. MT. Poteat said that he regarded the time to come more cause for thankfulness than what has gone before. However precious the past has been, the future is more SO. The future is always bigger than the past, and always will be.
 Dr. Phelps offered the closing prayer and the meeting closed with the doxology.
 After the service there was a short infoE- mai reunion of the members of the various churches.

THE PRESIDENTS TURKEY.

North St0n1ngIOn and Turkeys By the
 Thousands - Cheatnut-Gorged Tur-
 Key For Grover.
 Although the population of North Ston- ington is not over ], 1,50O, yet it is definitely known that between 25 and 30 tons of tur- keys have been and are being shipped from the town this week to tickle the pslates of Thanksgiving epieures.
 A great portion of the territory of the town is covered with woodland and huck1e- berry brush. The turkeys secure great quan- titles of the berries in summer, and of chest nuts in autumn, which accounts for the de- licious flavor of the North Stonington birds. For nearly twenty-five years North Stoning- ton has furnished with each succeeding Thanksgiving the turkey for the White house. It has already contributed three to President Cleveland, and on Monday the fourth, forty-pound fowl from the farm of A. J. Hazelhurst, of Pendleton Hill, waa shipped by express for the Presidential ta- ble. It was a handsome, white skinned spring bird, plump as a partridge. For six weeks before butchering time Mir. Hazel hurst, who had been competing for the hon. or of supplying the White house turkey, had been filling the fowl up with chestnuts-a handful every day. As result the turkeys flesh increased with amazing rapidity, and it is safe to say that no more luscious or tooth- some fowl will come under President Cleve- lands carver than the bird from the wilds of old North Stonington on Thanksgiving day.
 The great bulk of North Stoningson tur- keys is divided between Boston and New York

A Sensation I'm Police OIrcIeG-GenlaI
 Ofaeer Bradley's Stunning Surprise.
 Chief Boliman yesterday suspended Officer George Bradley from the police force for one day. It seems that the genial officer started on starting out on duty in the morning step ed into an establishment on Center street to get his shoes shined. He had hardly got seat ed and the boy begun to put the shine on when Chief Bollman's countenance was seen at the door. He walked in, surveyed the place and then smiHngly said:
 "AhI I've caught you, haven't Ia'
 At the same time the chief also took 8 seat and another boy went at his shoes.
 The officer in his reply jokingly said, s'I guess you have, chief" When he got his shoes shined he left and thought no more of it until he again reported at police headquar- ters when Captain Hyde informed him that he had orders from the chief to suspend him for the day.
 Officer Bradley's friends think that the chief went little too far and took advantage of teehnicality in the rules. The officer has been on the force for seventeen years and this is the first time that he has ever been suspended.

 There was drunken brawl in Herman's saloon on George street last night between and o'clock, in which John A. Brown, a young man, was seriously stabbed.
 In the saloon was Brown with three com- panions and Michael Novillo, Dominick De bello and Carmen Ziko, who are tough Ital ians. They were drinking and having good time over their glasses, when an argument was begun. There was good deal of swear- ing was indulged in by all, and shaking of fists between Browns crowd and the Italians.
 It finally resulted in fight. Novillo sud- denly pulled stilletto from his pocket and drove it to the hilt into Browns abdomen.
 Brown staggered for an instant and then cried "murder" several times. His assailant with his friends tried to escape, but Officers Laughlin and Nichols had been notified of the row and they made them prisoners. Brown was placed under arrest, but his friends escaped. He had to be lifted onto a stretcher, as the wound was 8 deep one and the entrails protruded. Dr. O. Purdy Linds- ley sewed up the cut and the wounded man was taken to the hospital.
