throughout the State, cuts and personal
points about all the Democratic Congress

RUNAWAY AND ACCIDENT.

Probable Fatal Accident on Orange
 street Caused by Runaway-One or
 the Victims Seriously Injured-HeF
 Recovery Doubtful.
 Mir. and Mrs. Bishop of Hamden, with their little eight-year-old daughter, were driving on East Rock late yesterday after noon. At7 o'clock they started toward this city and as they crossed the bridge over Mill river the horse was startled by . loose coil of wire lying across the road. The frightened animal reared and kicked against the dashboard, striking the young girl in the face and iniuring her seriously. The horse then started on 8 run down Orange street at furious rate. When the team arrived in front of the Palladium building plucky young man, J. Y. Peck ham of Orange street, seized the horse by the bit and succeeded in bringing the runaway to stop. The car stables on Court street and the injured victims of the accident were con veyed to pr. w. O. Al1ing,s office on Or snge street. Upon examination of their injuries it was ascertained that Mrs. Bish- op had sustained an abrasion of the skin under her chin, caused by contact with the wire, but her injuries are not serious. The little daughter was not 80 fortunate, how ever. The bones of her nose were fright fully crushed and long, deep cut extend ing the full length of that organ was sus- tained. Her injuries are considered very serious, and she was removed to the hos pital for treatment. Her recovery is con- sidered extremely doubtful. Mir. Bishop escaped without injury.
 At an early hour this morning reports from the hospital were to the effect that the patient was resting quietly and that the results of the accident would probably not be 50 serious as was at first appre- hsnded,

 CHURCH OF THE. MESSIAH.
 Rev. L. H. Squires occupied the pulpit of the Church of the Messiah yesterday, having returned from his vacation trip in western New York. He preached two ad- mirable discourses to his people, who were present in good numbers to welcome him. His morning theme was, Lessons from my vacation trip, n passing his remarks on the words found in Isaiah, 10th chapter and 31st verse: eThey that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength" Many interesting and instructive lessons were drawn by the speaker, which pleased and edified his hearers. The Church of the Mes siah continues to prosper under the faithful ministrations of MT. Squires, who has en deared himself not only to his flock, but to very many persons in this city who re- spect and esteem him as faithful minister and Christian gentleman. The outlook for continuance of useful and effectual work in this church is decidedly good. AN INTERPRETING ADDRESS MT. c. E. Raymond, for many years well known as one of our most bright and en- tertaining business young men now located in New York city, made Q brief visit here last week. Yesterday afternoon he attend ed the Sunday school of the Church of the Messiah, of which he was at one time superintendent, and in response to an in vitation addressed the school. His remarks were concerning trip which he recently took to the far west, and embodied much that was interesting and instructive. AT HOPE CHURcH-sEvEN NEW MEMBERS. Rev.
