Y. Ii. Sprague and family, who left
for their new home in Bangor, on Mon
day last, were rendered Il reception by
the members of the Bethany chHrch and
congregation in the chapel on Friday
evening of the past week. There was an
interesting musical program, which was
furnished largely by these friends who
were very helpful to the Bethany church
during their residence of three years in
our town. j. p. Longley, and Richard
W. Sprague, played two guitar duettes,
and were heartily encored. MIR. and
Mrs. Sprague chanted the Lords Prayer.
and, with their son, sung several selec
tious, which gave much pleasure to all
present. The pastor spoke appreca-
lively of the services of these friends, and
then in behalf of the Bible class of Mrs.
Y. IL. Sprague, presented to her a valu.
able oil painting, richly framed. The
picture was rose piece, and was the
work of Mrs. c. Davis Miller member
of the class. Mr.. Sprague responded
for his wife, and spoke feelingly of the
pleasant years that his family had spent
in the church. Nearly seventy were in
attendance, and the occasion was one
long to be remembered.

 "Fellow PAtriots-The ecclesiastical re- treat of the diocese of Hartford was to have begun the 18th of July next, but We have postponed the date of the convention to the Both and 3lst of July, 1895. in or der to give the reverend gentlemen an op- portunity to assist in the exercises.

 The service at the St Louis church will be held precisely at 9 a. m.

UNION RESCUE MISSION.

Meeting of the Board of Management
 Last Evening.
 At meeting of the Union Rescue mis- sion, held in the parlor of the Second church last night, it was voted that Super intendent Robert Wilson and President A. A, Benedict visit at least two churches at the time of the Sunday morning service and conduct the exercises, and that com mittee consisting of E. s. Robbins. Rev w. J. White and Mrs A, O. Peck be ap pointed to arrange for these events. Rev Dr Davenport and Superintendent Wilson were appointed to secure the publication in the local daily papers all matter of in- terest to the mission. Rev w. J. White, pastor of the Chapel street M E. church, stated that his church desired to become affiliated with the mission and s. 0. Gay lord, Miss Jennie Norton and Mrs Jennie Blake were appointed to act as delegates with the pastor. Rev F. s. Townsend re- signed from the executive committee and the Rev w. Eldridge was appointed in his stead. The treasurer stated that he had received $247 19 and paid out S180 19. A hundred persons gave pledges to con- tribute to the support of the mis- sion, but half of them have | not kept faith with the association, so that the receipts have not been so large as the | management had reason to expect. The delegates from the W. 0. T. U. suggested that a sign bearing the initials of their society be secured, but this was opposed on the ground that it might tend to keep Ro- man Catholics from attending the meet ings It might create false impression. leading the people to believe that the insti. tuition was distinctively Protestant, when in reality it is working in the interest oi men of all creeds. Mrs Cook, president oi the W. c. T. U disputed this and stated that when their sign hung over the en- trance to the rooms on South Main street fair per cent of the attendance were Ro man Catholics.

Thomas C.. White oSaS Trial For Not

 In the city court to-day Thomas o. White was charged with non-support. His wife and her mother, Sarah Belts, failed to appear when the case was first called, and writs of capias were ordered issued. They came in before court adjourned. however. Mrs White said that she left the hospital last Monday. where she had been under treatment for two weeks. She had lived with her husband but once in four years. He had provided her no sup port, nor did he help pay the hospital ex- penses, which were paid by her sister and the town. She did not have him arrested. Mrs Betts said that her daughter had lived with her of and on for four years. Se- lectmen Molris said White had called on him and promised to pay his share toward the hospitA expenses when he secured work. White told a pretty slick story himself and Judge Cowell adjourned his case for one week to see if he would fur nish his wife support.
 The case against Joseph A. Going charged with carrying concealed weapons, which had been adjourned for thirty days | was nolled.

THE WORLD OF SPORT

The Phlladelphias evidently made mis- take when they let Pitcher Harper go. He is playing a great game with Rochester. and it is said that several league mana gers have their eyes on him for next season.
 Mark Baldwin. who left the Pottsville club and joined the Rochesters, has been sustained by President Young on the ground that the Pottsville manager did not sign him for trial within the fifteen days prescribed by the rules.
 The best ball game of the season will take place at the West End grounds to- morrow afternoon, when the strong Hart ford team will be here. John Henry s team comprises such players as Gunshan- non, Doe, Kennedy and Beecher, all old leaguers. Donahue will be in the box again for Waterbury and in all probability there will be one or two new men. It will be game worth witnessing.
