BLEW OUT THE GAS.

Narrow Escape From sphyxiation
of Two Men In the Central House
Saturday Night-0mcer DippOld's
Timely Aid-He Succeeds in Nesus-
cttarfng One Nan and the other Is
Sent to the Hospital, Where 1t Is
Said He VIII Recover.
The Central house on Church street was
the scene early yesterday morning of
case of asphyxiation which, but for the
promptness and presence of mind of Off
Ger John g Dippold, might have resulted
fatally.
About 8 o'clock Saturday evening a
party composed of John Benson, John and
James Cronan and William Legion, all OF
Wallingford, went to the hotel in question
in an intoxicated condition and were as
signed to two rooms. The party immedi-
ately retired and it is supposed that
Benson blew out the gas before getting
into bed.
About o'clock yesterday morning some
through one of the Railways detected the
smell of gas. A closer investigation re-
vealed the fact that the gas was emanating
from the room occupied by Benson.
Patrolman John Dippold was summoned
and the door of the room forced open.
The two men, Benson and Legion
were found on the bed in o semi
comatose condition. Officer Dippold at
once notified Medical Examiner White and
while awaiting his coming secured some
ammonia and other restoratives and pro-
coded to endeavor to resuscitate the un-
conscious victims.
Benson was in the worst condition of
the two and his condition was really seri-
Gus, and upon the arrival of Medical Ex-
| aminer White he was at once sent to the
hospital, although Officer Dippold's efforts
| in his behalf had been attended with some
success. Legion, who was the less af-
fected by the gas, had been completely re-
suscitated by Officer Dippold's efforts and
he was allowed to depart. He was, how
ever, unable to give any connected state
| ment as to the manner in which the af-
| fair occurred. Officer Dippold was high
| ly complimented by the medical examiner
for the promptness and ability with
which he went to work and his knowledge
of exactly what to DO, thereby possibly
saving two lives.
| Benson was removed to the hospital,
where he lay in an unconscious state dur
ing the forenoon. In the afternoon he
was taken to his home by his friends.

AT BATTELL CHAPEL.
Rev. DR.. Fatrbairn Of England Adj
dresses the Students.

Rev. DR.. Fairbairn, principal of Mans
field college, Oxford, Eng, preached in
Battell chapel yesterday morning. His
text was Philippians 1:21, ''For to me to
live is Christ, to die is gain" He spoke
briefly as follows: Chow are the services
of God and of man reconciled into one, in
the service of Christ? The text should be
read in the light of the life of the author.
A convert when he changes sides changes
views. Apply this standard to Paul and
see how eminent he stands as convert.
The nobility of his character is also to be
noted. The Jews hated him, but never
could they compel him to repay hate with
hate or to be untrue.
''In discussing the relation of the service
of man to that of God there is an intimate
relation between a mans character and his
service to his kind. Eminent intellect
without eminent character is dangerous.
If man is to serve men he must be good.
Only the holy can heal, and the holiness
must be real, not apparent. Virtue, to be,
must be real. If a man is to serve Christ,
In the way of Christ, he must have the
spirit of Christ. In spite of the superiority
of formal excellence over formal evil,
there IL almost an infinite distance between
It Ind true Christlikeness. without
character, no service; with character there
kcannot but be service. With the heart per-

DEPARTING PASTORS.

Rev. Mr.. Blakemanss Farewell Ser. |
mon In the M. e. Tabernacle |
S1xty.eight New Members Added
During His Passionate Here-Twen-
ty.eight Yesterday.
Rev. Mr.. Brakeman preached his last
sermon as pastor in the NJ. E. tabernacle
on Edwards street last evening. He took
for his text Ezra viii, 18, "And by the
good hand of our God upon US they
brought US man of understanding" He
described what the true minister of God
should be- He may not be man of super
eminent genius OF of great literary attain
ments, but there is one thing of which he
must be thorough master--he must I'M
derstand the Bible and know how to preach
it. He must also have deep insight into
human nature. Above all he must know
how to save souls.
This last point had its illustration in the
morning service, in which twenty eight
members were Neutrality-suspicious. up
on probation, two by letter and three into
full connection from probation. This
makes sixty eight which Mr.. Brakeman has
received since last May, the date upon
which the society entered upon its new
field. Members have been added at every
monthly communion since that date ex-
cspt one. Much praise has been accord
ed the outgoing pastor for his pulpit
abilities and he has made many friends
durirg his short passionate. The financial
condition of the church is the only reason
for his leaving the society, finding It.
self launched upon larger enter
prise in church building than was contem-
plated when he assumed its passionate. His
successor, the Rev. Mr.. Cooper of New
Milford, has accomplished work in this
line that has been impossible to all others
and is doubtless the only minister in his
conference capable of lifting the great
financial burdens which this society must

gins his labors in this city Sunday after
next. At yesterday mornings service an
nouncement was made by Mr.. James White

. NEW CATHOLIC CHURCH

ror the Northern Part of the City
somewhere in the Upper Part of the
Efshth Ward- The Subject Again
Hinder Serious CONFEDERATION - A
Meeting to be Held Next sunday.
For several years past the building of
new Catholic church in the northern part
of the city has been seriously talked of.
The people on the dividing line between
St. Mary's and st. Patrick's have taken
into consideration the crowded condition
of ST. Patrick's church and the distance of
St. Mary's and have decided that new
church was necessary.
As far back as seven years ago the SUBJ
ject was agitated and at one time lot on
Edwards street was almost purchased.
Again, not long ago, petition signed by
about 800 Catholic residents of that Sec
ton was sent to the bishop, asking him to
| establish parish there. 1t was proposed
| that the new parish be bounded on the
| east by the Hartford division of the Con-
| solidated railroad as far IN as Franklin
| street, then Franklin to State, to Humphrey,
| to Whitney avenue, to the city line. This,
| it was considered, would greatly relieve
! the pressure on st. Patrick's church and
| be of convenience to those of st. Mary
parish who lived rather far from the
church. Last year a lot was definitely
settled upon, but for some unaccountable
reason there was nothing more said
about it.
Lately the subject has been agitated
again, and has aroused a lively interest.
Yesterday there was to have been meet
ing of the Catholics of that section at q
residence on Nash street, but on account
of misunderstanding as to the time il
was not held.
A prominent Catholic said last uight il
interview: 81 am in favor of the project
and will give it my support, financially al
well as morally. We need church here
whether it is in connection with one of thu
other churches or separate parish church
I have been spoken to on the subject, ane
have offered my support. We are too fa1
from the other churches in this section
and hope we shall soon have a curacy.
1t is proposed to hold a meeting of thu
Catholics Of that section next Sunday.

Tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock the
special matinee seats for the Elijah will be
sold at the Hyperion. This matinee will
be held at $50 on Friday afternoon, April
1, with all the soloists, the orchestra of
forty and the great chorus. The price of
these seats will be one dollar. There will
be rush for them undoubtedly, as hun
dreds of people are coming from out of
town. There are parties forming from
New London to Waterbury, and from
Stamford and Hartford, in fact, nearly
every town in this part of the state will
send delegation. This exhibition of in

of the grand old oratorio is the eloquent
witness to its wonderful popularity.
The directors of the Gounod society
wish it distinctly understood that, as an
nounced some days since, no seats for the
evening performance of Elijah will be
held after 8 o'clock tonight. All seats
now at the box Office of the Hyperion and
uncalled for after that time will be sold to

continues undiminished there are still

Church OF the Messiah-An A bic Dis
course.
Rev. L. d. Squires preached an interest
ing sermon last evening in the Church of
the Messiah on the words found in Job,
eleventh chapter and thirteenth verse: eff
thou stretch out thine hands toward him {"
The sermon was a companion one to the
previous Sunday evenings discourse. On
that evening the subject was the "Prepa-
ration of the Heart" and it was then shown
that those who desire to be saved should
come in the right attitude. But it was not
sufficient simply to make the right choice,
although that is the first necessity-not
enough to think right. Many persons
think good thoughts, yet do wrong. In
fact, none of us do as well as we think
Our ideals are better than our lives. One
must have not only good intentions, but
also "the perseverance of the saints" in
order to succeed. Faith alone cannot
save. Gath without works is dead 2"
It is said that '.hell is paved
with good intentions" Multitudes
have wrecked their lives and have
gone down to destruction, carrying
with them "good Intentions" Men will
make resolutions and sign pledges, but if
they lack character to enforce them they
will signally fail. A large part of the
wisdom of the world is kept busy in try
ing to correct the blunders Of simply good
people. It took long time to convince
many good people of great faith and much
ignorance and bigotry, that the world was
round and not fat. It took long time
before the curse of ecclesiasticism, which
imposed 80 much cruelty and suffering on
multitudes of people, was swept away by
ton does not consist in going to church
simply. It does not consist in saying
'Tord, Lordp'
A saving faith consists in not only look
ing Godward, but also MAYNARD; not only
in praying, but in doing; not only in hav-
ing earnest aspirations, but in ministering
to those who need help. In short, he who
is ssaved" is the ono who has the heart to
feel and the hands to help those who are
helpless and dependent. They are the
true Christians who follow the steps of
their Lord and Savior. They are lights in
the world, shedding beams of mercy and
love, Frightening the lives Of the weary
ones Of earth, and extending the kindness
of God and his Christ among the children
Of men. (
