Rev Mr. Hoyt's Annual.

Rev Mr. Hoyt gave his annual address,
Sunday, from which the BEE is kindly
permitted to compile these facts. After
Is years of service in the ministry, Mr.
Hoyt is able to say, what few can say,
that he has not been absent from his
pulpit once on account of sickness. Dur
ing 1888, he attended one wedding, six
funerals and eight baptisms. OF the two
members of the church removed by
death, this memorial was offered, in part !:
''Mrs Stephen Ferry and Mrs Charles
G.. Brakeman were remarkable for their
kindness to the sick and afflicted and are
held in loving remembrance in many
homes. They both possessed firm trust
in Christ and went forward into the val
ley of the shadow of death, fearing moth
ing in it or beyond it. Upon the hope
the gospel imparts and the comfort re-
ceived from it they leaned. Mrs Ferry 8

Trinity's Decorations.

Even more elaborate than usual were
the preparations for Christmas at Trinity,
this year. The holly branches and ber-
ries, so long an essential part of Christ
mas with our English consins, were a
new feature and added to the beauty and
effectiveness of the whole. From the
apex of the chancel depend great stream
Christmas bell. The panels at either
side of the altar were especially fine and
showed careful and elaborate labor. An
evergreen cross surmounted the font,
which was covered and almost hidden
by masses of holly and ivy. The me-
mortal tablets appeared in frame of
green, whose shape was in no two in
stances the same.
In front of the organ gallery was the
motto. sWe have seen his star in the
East and are come to worship Him. in
pleasingly irregular letters of red on a
background of white cloth. The scarlet
berries and glossy leaves of the holly
produce a happy effect placed with care
less profusion upon the cloth, both here
and wherever notices are seen. Small
pine trees were also placed in the gal
lery.
| In the chanccl, the Christian emblems
the Alpha and Omego and the Chi Ro
are everywhere present. At the back OF
the altar and on either side of the chan
Gel window are panels and arches of hol
ly and greens, all on the white back
4 ground, harmonizing with the Gothic ar
chitecture of the church.
New altar cloths Of the richest ant
heayiest designs were used for the frs
time, Christmas. They were seasonabl
gifts to the church and are of the highes

Druggist Sanford spent Christmas in

As they now stand, the bylaws of the
borough preclude the warden or court of
burgesses from rebating taxes as an in
ducement for manufacturers to locate
here. An amendment granting this pow
er will be asked for. If obtained, it will
do much to further Shelton's growth.
Three taxes, borough, town and school,
are assessed and the total is % mills
Birmingham's tax is "a mills. If abated
for one or more years, it is easy to see
how new firms wishing to locate here
would be benefited and how Shelton
would receive abundant return.

At Hawleyville.

Hawleyville's Sunday school held its
Christmas festival, last week Wednesday.
The brick school house was filed to
overlooking with the scholars and friends,
filled with the spirit of Christmas. The
services were opened with the carol, SIN
the East the light is breaking," followed
by other carols, prayers, address of Rev
Mr. wilkins, the customary report and
distribution of gifts. Festoons of greens
over windows and on the walls and bun
ches of holly on white background, at
either side of the entrance, lent cheer
full air to the room and gave it a holiday
appearance. The Norway pine from
which the gifts were distributed was that
used in Trinity and was taken from the
church yard. The carols were those used
at 1'rinity,s Christmas services and were
nicely sung. Mr. and Mrs Frank K.Haw
ley lead tie children's songs.
Over 40 are now enrolled at the law

Trinity's Music, Sunday.

The opening voluntary, played by the
organist, Prof G.. S. Plat, was from the
Oratorio of Elijah, Mendelssohn, ''IIe
watching over Israel"
The anthem, key of +, by Hatton, is a
fine composition. There is little solo
work In the piece, but the voices sing in
the proper compass for the best effect.
The elaborate accompaniment for the Or
gan was not only great support for the
voices, but was full of life and meaning
in itself. 1t is a good specimen of what
the English composers can do in the an
them style.
The re Deum by Bridgewater was
another fine selection. IL is less festival
in its character, but full of the true spir-
it which should characterize church mu-
sic. The regular choir had the assist
ance of Mr. GeoIge Il. Nichols, bass, of
somerville, Mass. and Mr. William Tom
lin, tenor, of Bridgeport. These two gen
tlemen were heard in various short solos
and duets, which came in the course of
the selections. Mr. Nichols, although
really baritone, sang his part with
great ability, sustaining his part with
power and. adding foundation to the
whole music. In the lie Deum, Mrs Ed
gar Hawley and Miss TAME Sanford sang
the solos ia unison, also in the hymn,
clark the Herald Angels Sing" The
voices blended together, so that the effect
was like one singer and the tones pro-
duced were a decided pleasure to listen
to. Mrs Plat was heard in trio, which
forms part of the lie Deum and also in
solo in the hymn, ''Shout the Glad
Tidings." The solo showed to advantage
her power and smoothness in the lower
tones of her voice.
AT the close of the service, which is
said to have been, in a musical way, the
best heard in Trinity for Il long time, the
organist played as voluntary Il chorus
from the Grand Mass No. l of Weber
Prof Platt never showed his musical tai
ent to finer advantage and it was fortu'
nate that large congregation was out
TO enjoy the treat. The program:

At the Congregational church, last
Friday evening. the children's celebrat-
ion was carried out according to pro-
gram, the little ones doing especially
well. The recitations, s'Confidentiaf' by
Mabel TAYLOR and "Funny Uncle PhiF'
by little Miss Jessie Taylor were greatly
enjoyed by the large audience, as was
the solo by Master Curtis Morris; aServ-
ing the King" by the primary class also
deserves mention. The pastor made in
teresting remarks to the children, de-
scribing the Bethlehem scene. The dec
orations were unusually fine, this year.
OF course, the picture of Bethlehem was
the principal decoration and it received
many deserved fiattering compliments
for its beauty. The other decorations
consisted of large fir streamers festooned
from the center of the ceiling to either
corner, ropes of ground pine wound
around the posts and Topped between
them; on the front of the gallery, neatly
framed in greens, were the words in large
letters: ''Glory to God in the Highest
and on earth Peace, Good viii toward
