THE SPECIAL TowNMEETING.

THE SPECIAL TOWN MEETING.
The town meeting was held in accord
ance with notice, Saturday last, and
about all the items in the warning were
passed by large majority. The library
question and the most important OF all
was passed by vote Of 81 for to "a
against. Egbert Marsh, a highly esteem
ed gentleman and to whom nearly all Of
the credit is due in establishing memo
rial building and library therein, adj
dressed the meeting in well chosen words,
stating that when he purchased the
building lot on which to erect a suitable
building for the library, etc., he only
asked the town to accept it with certain
conditions previous to or by January /,
1896, that such was only starting point
and IL now the town deemed it expedlent
and best to accept the gift that he had
also made provisions in q will leaving an
endowment fund of $25 200 for the main
tenance and support of the hall and
library. After hearing his remarks the
town voted authorizing the selectmen to
make loan il necessary not exceeding
$4,000 at four per cent interest, or not
exceeding that vote, providing that q
sum of $4,000 be raised by the citizens to
complete the estimated cost of the build
ing, grading, etc. 1t is now to be hoped
LIldb tuc ldblcI ducuDt Will OC SpCCoAy
raised and work on the construction of
the building will begin in early spring.
Plans for same are already in the hands
of the committee or trustees. We say
emphatically that we hope nothing may
happen to defeat the project for IL it ar
rives to completion it viii be something
useful and ornamental and of which New
Milford will be proud and we rave no
doubt nor fears but some of our wealthy
citizens will assist the enterprise by leav-
ing endowments later on and that it will
be arranged so to run it without further
expense to the town.
In regard to the elimination Of grade
crossing near Hubbell's shop, the town
voted to accept the railroad company's
proposition, which is that the town at
under the railroad track at point nearly
opposite Aspetuck bridge and joining
and improving the highway which ends
at Culvert City so called. This, when
completed, will we'll pay for all it costs
as it will do away with very dangerous
crossing at present existing. Gentlemen
we take off our hat and bow you vote
of thanks for passing he vote in favor
of this Improvement.
| In regard to continuing the macadan
road to the line of G. F. Schoverling's
property, towards which Mr. Schoveriins
agreed to give handsomely it was decided
to waive the matter this fall, owing to
the near season for cold weather, which
would not allow any party to do gooC
work. Your correspondent believes that
this was wise as the matter can be re-
considered another season or after Nj
Schoverling gets his warehouse built.
1t is reported that a movement is al
eady on foot to raise the $4,000 by pri
vate subscription and that $1,000 has beer
pledged. Let the good work 60 on.

A GOOD JOKE,

Last Sunday morning highly esteem
ed and worthy gentleman who resides on
West street and whose name we will call
for short M. s. g., started for church and
on his way stopped at the postoffice.
The church bells were ringing for the
morning service and it was time to close.
Either his mail interested him deeply OF
some notice hanging 10 in the office at
tracted his attention so much so that he
temporarily forgot himself and when the
postoffice clerk went out locking the big
doors behind him he did not notice that
any one was in the office. 1t finally oc-
CURED to M. s. G.. that he would be late
TO church IL he didn't start, when 10 and
behold, he couldn't get out and what
thoughts ran through that mans head
no one can conjecture. He paced the
floor to and fro like wild animal in
circus cage. 1t wouldn't do to break the
large plate glass windows for they cost
about 800 eapiece; esides II he did
break one and jump out he would be ar
rested for burglar. He didn't want to
be late to church for he is a man noted
for punctuality and he did not want the
members to think that he had been strick-
en- suddenly with an attack of malaria.
So he began to beckon to passers by
pounding on the windows and to attract
attention which he finally succeeded in
doing and made known his situation to
them. They divided in squads and went
in all parts of the village to hunt up
Postmaster Richmond or his clerks to
come and unlock the doors. Each mo-
ment seemed an age to him, as he was all
this time being deprived Of his liberty.
Alter space Of about half an hour the
postmaster was found who Embossed the
heavy doors and out shot the prisoner,
striking bee line for church, where he
found the services far advanced on his
arrival. He now thinks that the Sunday
mail should be discontinued and that all
public places when locked for Saturday
night should remain so until the follow
ing Monday morning in order that the
Sabbath may be better observed.

THANKSGIVING DAY OBsERyANCEs.
The usual family gatherings took
place on Thanksgiving day. The
Thanksgiving sermon was delivered on
the Sabbath following, from Thes,
8: 18 SIN every thing give thanks; for
this Is the will of God in Christ Jesus
concerning you" Two points were
considered. The extent Of the duty.
In every thing, and the ground and rea
son of the duty. s'For this is the will
OF God in Christ Jesus concerning you
Great point emphasized, constancy of
the duty, as constant as the duty OF
prayer of which it is part. II one is
to be without ceasing, so is the other.
Thanksgiving to God is to be not only
one day in the year, but every day OF
the year. 1t is a travesty to the religion
of the CROSS to divorce 1t from praying
without ceasing Of which it is the COM
pliment.

The significance Of it is the British

grease. But one of our tars very soon
climbed it, tore down the British flag

LONDON, Jan. t4.-The Speaker pub
fishes the following from its CORE
spondent at Constantinople:
I'm addition to the reports of Ar.
menians and the Catholic and Prot
estant missionaries in Sassoun we
have the testimony of Turkish regu-
lars who took part in the outrages,
and who, since their return, have
boasted of their deeds. There is no
doubt that they exaggerate. For in.
stance, one boosted that he had ripped
open twenty women, while another
declared that he took part in the
massacre of girls and women, their
blood running a stream beneath the
door. 1t is needless to accept such
stories literally, but they prove that
such things are done with the sultan's
full approval. Hundreds of these
statements agree on the essential
points.
THE feature of the situation which
presents the greatest possible danger
is that these men were rewarded and
Turkish officials everywhere under
stand that the sultan will reward
them for similar treatment of the
Armenians.
alarming reports come from the
farthest points of Asia Minor and
Northern Syria of the aggressive
activity of officials against Christians.
Even foreign residents are in great
danger. If the powers do anything
they should act quickly. 1t will be a
fatal mistake if Europe is contented
to secure the rights of Armenians in
Armenia and neglect the millions out
side the prorince."

ROME'S WARNING.
Bishop Fink Proclaims the Ban on
Secret Societies In Kansas.

Secret Societies In Kansas.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Jan. 14.-Catho-
lies of Kansas City, Kan, and vicinity
will be notified through their pastors,
of the ban put upon secret societies
recently by Rome. The Ri Rev. L.
NJ. Fink, bishop of Kansas City, Kan,
has made public the following letter,
which he has sent TO each parish
priest:
Rev Dear Father: l send you a
certain Roman document concerning
three secret societies and their con-
domination by the holy see. You will
read it from your pulpit, together
with this letter, in all the public
masses on the Sunday after its receipt
and if any Of our Catholics have been
so unfortunate as to join any of them,
you will endeavor to induce them to
cheerfully submit TO the decision of
the Holy See You will impress on
the faithful that anyone who would
refuse submission or neglect severing
his connection with any of them, will
cut himself loose from the church and
the use of the sacraments, no matter
what his excuse might be. The de-
cision is nothing new or unheard of,
but the reassertion of Catholic princi-
plies, which a false liberalism intended
to stihe. l congratulate our good
priests on the firm stand they took
in regard to secret societies and our
good people on their obedience to their
superiors by which they were kept
from them, despite examples to the
contrary around them. On this oc-
casion you will not fail to warn the
faithful not only against the three
societies which are specially men,
toned in the decision of the holy see,
but against all secret and uon-Cath-
Ole )cial societies, according to the
intention of the Third plenary council
at Baltimore, and urge upon them the
necessity of establishing Catholic
benevolent and social societies, or
forming branches Of such as
have been established elsewhere
in order to afford the necessary
relief and assistance in sickness
and death. The establishment of such
societies is especially necessary in city
congregations, consisting in great
part of mechanics, business men, Ia
borers, etc. The document in ques-
ton, whose English translation l in
sert, is addressed to the apostolic
delegate, who is ordered to send it to
all the bishops in the United States.
To this letter is attached the letter
from the pope condemning the Odd
Fellows, Knights of Pythias and other
secret societies.
The Rt. Rev. Fink's diocese ex-
tends about 200 miles into Eastern
Kansas and includes most of the i'm
portant cities of the state.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE chief
feature of Friday nights session of
the house was the debate which grew
out of the attempt of Mr. Springer
Dem, ILL., to pass a bill granting
500 month to Major General John
A. McClernand. Mr.. Jones dem.
Va insisted upon making the point
Of no quorum. Mr.. Springer, in a
heated speech, lectured those of his
Southern Democratic colleges who
constantly assumed an attitude of
hostility toward the pension of Union
soldiers. He called attention to the
fact that but thirteen Democrats had
been returned to the next house from
the North. He warned them that if
their course was persisted in, none
would be returned to the succeeding
co ngress.
The discussion was prolonged for
more than an hour and was marked
by several sensational scenes, one Of
which was the Kissing of Mr.. Jones
when he said that the widow of Gen
eral John A. Logan, who received a
pension of 81, 900 year, was living in
social luxury in this city ard annually
spent more than her pension money
for flowers displayed by her at her
social functions. Later on when he
proclaimed his pride in the Confeder-
ate cause that had gone down in de-
feat, the Republicans in chorus
shouted "We have no doubt of it, !"
but in the galleries many of the spec
tators applauded vigorously.
Mr. Springer was finally forced to
withdraw the bill. But even after
the bill had been withdrawn Mr..
Champ Clark Democrat of Missouri
got the floor, and in characteristic
speech scored Mr.. Jones roundly as
he said on behalf of his Democratic
colleagues of the North. He began
by saying the Democratic party pre-
sented q dissolving view, and would
soon be lost to sight, though to mem
DRY dear He attributed much of the
Democratic disaster last fall to the
course of the Southern Democrats on
the pension question, and charged the
defeat of at least five Northern Demo-
Gratis to the speeches of Mr.. Jones.
He then paid a magnificent tribute to
McClernand.
After appealing to Mr.. Jones to al
low this meritoriOus bill to go through
he turned to him and said impress
lively that the Democrats of the North
were sick and tired of having their
Southern party associates come to
congress and stab their party in
the back. eve are through with
you" Mr.. Clark concluded.
