FOUND IN THE WATER.
A Body Supposed To BE That of Patsy
Burns. Drowned Last November.

Last evening D. A. Gardner found the
body of man floating in the water at
Central wharf and notified Mr.. Andrew
J. Rich, the undertaken, Mr.. Rich had
the body taken from the water. 1t was
badly decomposed, the head having en-
tirely disappeared, but some of those
who saw it thought it was that of Patsy
Burns, who is supposed to have fallen
from the wharf last November. At that
time Patrick Kilcannon was found on a
lobster car by the wharf from which he
had fallen. Kilcannon had several ribs
broken. He said that Burns was with
him on the wharf, and as Burns has not
been heard from since it is supposed he
lost his life. Burns's brother, however,
viewed the body and said he could not
tell whether it was his brother. Later,

a MAGNIFICENT INSTRUMENT.
The New Roosevelt Organ ut State Street
Church,

Last evening quite prrty of musical
people gathered at the new State street
church to hear the rehearsal of the choir
for the reopening and installation servic-
es, and consequently the new Roosevelt
organ, the only one of the kind in the
state.
The organ is a magnificent instrument,
and to those who 60 inside Of it, it is a
revelation. The numerous pipes, the
convolutions of the thousands of air duets
and the admirable: arrangement by
which any break or defect can be located
Immediately and repaired without diff
Guilty, speak volumes in its favor.
The organ stands in the large gallery
over the main entrance. 1t presents a
case of imposing design and proper.
lions, dark in color to harmenize9 with
the church fittings and finished i'm hard
oils,sand the pipes handsomely!
ed and arranged in . graceful symmetry
The excellence, durability and, finish of.
the work in every detail have; been. car
ried to the highest standard, and the in
strument is representative of the psr-
lection to which organ building can be
carried. The number of 16 and 5, stops
is in excess of what is usually met with,
giving a most impressive and dignifed
body of tone. There is a carefully regula-
ted proportion of the diapason, flute,
string and reed qualities. the strength Of
each being admirably balanced adapted
to the acoustics Of the building. Every
stop extends through the entire COM
pass. There is extensive use of swell
boxes. In addition to the swell organ
which contains II stops, the choir organ
is enclosed in box Of its own, device
which greatly enhances its value and pro-
ductive of charming effects generally
produced only by the swell organ.
Then all the stops Of the great organ,
except the first two, are included in the
choir swell box, thus enabling the or
ganist at will to subdue these asserta-
tive stops and to utilize their tones in a
very extensive fieldsss Thus 20 stops out
of 81 are placed under absolute control
SO as to give the most delicate gradua-
tons of cresceado or dinainuendo. A
most beautiful and novel effect can be
produced by gradually closing one box
and opening another. But it would be
impossible to mention all the improve
ments and novelties, the use of over
hanging keys for all three manuals, the
draw stop action, consisting only of
"trackers'' and squares" the tubular
pneumatic wind chests; the bellows run
by hydraulic motor in the basement
beneath the organ and operated by the
foot of the organist the voicing after the
best European schools.

west Congregational Chnrch,

The annual meeting of "The vestry
Builders was held Saturday last. The
organization was formed a, year ago, to
raise funds to enlarge the church build
ing, SO as to bring it into line with mod
ern requirements. Atpresent the church
work and progress is cramped for lack of
convenience, which it is thus purposed
to obviate. The report of the treasurer
was gratifying. He announced the net
assets for the year from all sources as
$643.50. A new board of officers was
elected.
