On Monday most interesting Group
Meeting" Of the Epworth Leagues, under
the management of Rev W. D. Howell,
was held at Quassapaug. The company
gradually increased until by dinner time
several hundred enthusiastic Epworth-
ians and their friends had assembled.
The frat topic on the program, Chow to
enlist every member of The League in
Christian work." was treated by Rev Mr.
Trinkaus of Waterville. "How to devel-
CD the Social Life'' was most admirably
set forth by Charles Abbott of Water
town, in paper teeming with rich and
profitable suggestions. The Leaguers
were given a practical illustration of a
pleasant way to give Intelligent diver
sion. The plan and the outcome were so
charming, that Mr. Howelrs idea, as it is
not copyrighted, will doubtless be repeat
ed in many League socials. The after
noon hour was occupied by Mr. Maynard

THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

The Watertown fire department turned
out last Saturday afternoon to try the
apparatus and see whether it was in
working order. A. N. Woolson had q
fire built north of the factory. The ma
terial used to make the fire was the most
inflammable which could be procured,
viz : Japan barrels. Those, together
with a number of boxes and other rub
blsh, were smeered with tar and the
whole soaked with benzine. The alarm
was given as soon as the fire was lit and
the Chemical boys started from the en-
CINE house. They arrived at the fire in
about nine minutes, just giving them a
good start. The chemical was turned on
and In 80 seconds the fire was out. The
pump on the hook and ladder truck was
also found to be in good working order

CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH NOTES.
At the missionary meeting which was
held at the parsonage Wednesday after
noon, Mrs Edward Fem gave very in
teresting pape".
The Cradle Role cleared about $50.
The Christian Endeavor society held
their annual business meeting on Tues.
day evening. The room was very pref
tily decorated with flowers and branches
of leaves. Samuel Hollister was chosen
as president, Josephine Fem as secre-
tary and treasurer. At the close Of the
session social time was enjoyed and
ice cream and cake served.
DR. Raymond finished his afternoon
discourses on different books of the BIZ
Bile, last Sunday. The last two dis
courses were on the Apocalypse purport-
ing to be written by the Apostle John.
The internal evidence was against the
supposition, for the book is written in
illiterate Greek, while the Gospel of
John Is 10 beautiful classic Greek. The
Apocalypse uses 81 John" in profusion,
while John In the Gospel never once
mentions himself. To take the Apoca-
lypse as prophetic Is erroneous. The
idea that all who have died are sleeping
in their graves until some far off I'M
known day of resurrection, ia wrong.
Resurrection from death and judgement
are a continuous process constantly
going forward. The contamination of
God g kingdom upon earth and in Heaven
is growth, and not a spectacular drama
to be performed at the so called end of
time.
Rev Mr. Carter did not go on vacation,
last week, but preached an excellent dis
course on Christ's fulfilling the law.
Fulfilling thing is not to destroy, but
to perfect it, make ii complete. He

Maine woods. DIR Raymond is expected
to preach next Sunday. By the way,

THE wATERTOwNs AGAIN VICTORIOUS.
The Waterbury Traction company
ball team crossed bats with the Wa
tertown nine at the fair grounds, Thurs
day afternoon, September 2. The game
resulted in victory for Watertown by
seven to five. The Traction company
has the most gentlemanly set of ball
players that have been here this season.
Watertown had little hopes of getting
the game, as the Waterbury team was
reported to them as being the strongest
amateur team in Waterbury, and were
backed by some of the regular league
players of Waterbury. The score was
close one all the way through. Wa
tertown got the lead and kept it until
the seventh inning when Waterbury got
in four runs, making them one in the
lead, the score standing FIVE to four in
their favor. They failed to score after
this, and Watertown put in three more
runs. The star play in the game was
made by Henderson in left field. 1t was
d running catch of a long fly near the
foul line. The home team played as
we'll as they have done any time this
season. Batteries, Mann and Welton,
