When Rev Otis ". Barker was in Brooklyn last week he attended the Man hattan-Brooklyn Conference of Congre- gational churches at Plymouth church, and heard splendid address by Rev Ly- man Abbott, D. D., on 1.-The Evanselis- tic Work which Any Church Can sDo." It may be of interest to know that the representative of Plymouth church re- ported to the conference that st the May communion 68 persons had united with the church, most of them on confession of their faith, and this result had largely been brought about through the spiritual life that had been quickened in the church by pr Abbotts recent series of sermons on the Bible. This statement will surprise many who had supposed that such sermons could only have the result of unsettling faith and turning men aside from the true spirit of the Gospel.

The supper and entertainment given under the auspices of the Hawleyville Union Chapel Association, last Friday night, was pronounced success. From o'clock in the afternoon to late in the evening the refreshment tables were crowded, over 200 being present. Much praise is due A. c.

An entertainment was also provided consisting of farce by the la dies of Hawleyville, and selections from the graphophone.

A Letter From Bishop Williams.

In Trinity and SG Johns churches, on Sunday, May 9, as we'll as in the other churches of this diocese, the fol- lowing letter from Bishop Williams was read. There is general regret that this genial, and well-loved man must cease his active ministrations. He is held in high regard by all christians, irrespective of denomination. The bishops letter follows:
 To the Reverend the Clergy and to the Lalty ot the Diocese Of Connecticut; Dear Brethren-It has been my expectation and nope that might very soon resume the actlVe work ot the Diocese, But find that this hope must be given up. Moreover, the tune has come when, in my opinion, a due re- gard Tor the well-being of the Diocese and 8 proper consideration of my own condition make it right that should ask the Diocese to elect Bishop Coadjutor.
 According to Canon Is, Sy. Title I the Bishop of the Diocese in giving his consent to the election Of such Bishop Coadjutor, is required to state the duties which will be as- signed to him. It will be my purpose to as sign to him all the duties connected with the Vlsltat1od ot the parishes for confirmation ana other ordinary matters, and also from time to time to devolve upon him the ortlina. tlons to the Priesthood and the Deaconate the laying of fcorner-stones and Ethe consecration or churches. l shall also relinQuish one half or the salary now paid to me, for the benefit ot the Coadjutor, and hope that the Diocese will under take to make such further, pro vision for his maintenance as will be just and honorable.
 am sure, my dear Brethren, that need not say to you that l. is painful necessity which compels me to address to you tbls letter. l cannot contemplate without sorrow the practical severance ot ties which have so long bound me 10 your service for more than half Of my lite,. in which have received such un form kindness and torbearance on your part. deeply feel the additional burden which is to be laid upon the Diocese, and it is only alter long, earnest, and prAyerful con. sideration, and not without consultation with those whose Eopinion is entitled to we.ght, that have decided to ask the action of the Convention in this behalf.
 In case the Convention. which will meet on the Sth of June, should feel that there had not been sufficient notice to warrant immediate action, would suggest that it fx upon some tune to which it may adjourn, at which ad Journed session the special business shall be the election of the Bishop Coadjutor.
 Will the Reverend Clergy, at their earliest convenience, read this letter to their congre gattons.
 ASKlng your prayers that the Convention be guided to do that which shall be to the honor ot God and the prosperity Of His Kingdom, remaln' Ahec uonately your Bishop,- U. Vii. Hams, Middletown, May 5, 1897.

conditions of the loan is that the

Have You

This is a serious question,
one at which some folks take
offense, yet statesmen are under
the necessity of asking it.
Some folks deal near home,
settle infrequently, never in
vestigate to see wht ther they
pay more than they should and
too often allow their accounts to
go long over due. If you don't
care what the family expenses
are it's poor way to do if you
want to leave your children in
affluent circumstances when
you are gone. Now it is quite
an advantage to have an open
account at well-known house,
who can execute your order
promptly. Often persons say
they don't want an account aud
will pay in a few days. But

BOY BITTEN BY A LEPER.
Endeavor Made to Transmit the Dis
ease to the Lad Because He Pest
cred the Afflicted Man.

Oakdale, N. D., Dec. SIN revenge
for an insult, Lars MOerdahl, a leper
endeavOred to transmit his disease to
Lewis Carrick. a 15-year-Old lad.
Several cases of leprOsy exist among
the Scandinavian colony near Oakdale.
The patients were all suffering from
the disease when they came to America
and though no one was ever known to
develop it after locating in the North
west, the sufferers are usually given
wide berth by their neighbors.
MOerdahPs case is one of the worst.
His mind as well as his body is affect
ed and his actions are little better than
those of an idiot. The children have
greatly annoyed him by chasing and
pelting him.
One day he told Carrick. the ring
leader of his prosecutors, that he would
give him leDrosy if he continued to
trouble him. The boy gave the threat
no attention and a few days ago was
jeering his victim, as usual, when the
latter suddenly turned and seized him.
He threw him to the ground, bit him
repeatedly and rubbed his knOtty and
misshapen hands over the wounds.
When passersby came to Carrick's as
sistance they found him fainting with
pain and terror.
Physicians think there is little dan
ger of his developing MoerdahFs dis
ease, but such was his fright that he
was taken with brain fever from which
it is doubtful if he RECEIVERS. He is
convinced that he will become a leper
and vows he will take his life if he sur
wives his present illness.

WITH CEDAR TREES
J. D. Rockefeller Shuts Out a Quar-
relsome Neighbor's View


New York, Dec. S.-A special to the
Herald from Tarrytown, N. Y, tells of
a queer neighborhood quarrel in which
Millionaire John D. Rockefeller was q
principal. Thomas Birdsall, a resident of
Sleepy Hollow, near Tarrytown, is now
mourning because he did not accept an
offer made him recently by the Standard
Oil king.
Mr.. Rockefeller resides in Pocantico
hills and owns more than half the prop
erty in that district He is building
many magnificent roads through his prop
erty. He was desirous of building
short road from Webber avenue to the
old Sleepy Hollow road. In order to give
it an easy turn he wished to buy a cor
ner of the property owned by Mr.. Thomas
Birdsall. On that corner Mr.. Birdsah
has a small house which he rents for IS
per month. Bfrdsall demanded $1,000 or
nothing for the place.
Mr.. Rockefeller. although a little incon>
venienced, went to work and built the
road on his own property. Then he or
dered his superintendent to plant some of
the largest cedar trees he could procure
adjoining Mr. BirdsalTs property the
north. This has been done. The small
house has been hidden from view and its
occupants gaze out a cedar trees. Mr..
BirdsaTs beautiful view of Sleepy Hollow
valley of Revolutionary fame and also the
glorious Hudson is entirely shut from
sight.

4 MOST GRAPHIC STORY.
It is Taken Direct from Real Life.
A Charming New England Lady Tells
Her Experience Both Abroad
and in America

The unwritten romances Of life are
more wonderful and far more interest
ing than the most vivid works of fic-
ton The one we are about to relate
occurred in real life, and is both inter
esting and instructive.
Mrs. Jennie Ray formerly lived in
Manchester. N H Her home was
pleasant, her surroundings comforta-
bic. In the year 1880 she visited Eng
land, and while in that country began
to experience strange sensations. At
first she attributed them to the change
of climate, but they continued and in
creased, until finally, like many anoth-
er woman, she became utterly discour-
aged.
It was while in this condition that
Mrs. Ray returned to America and her
home. Thousands of women who read
this story can appreciate the condition
in which Mrs. Ray then was and sympa-
thize with her suffering. Two promi-
nent physicians We're called and en-
deaVOred to do all in their power for
her relief. In spite, however, of their
skill. Mrs. Ray grew weaker and more
depressed. while the agony she endured
seemed to increase. It was at this time
that noted physician who was called
declared Mrs Ray was suffering from
cancer. said there was no help and
told her friends she could not live more
than week at the farthest.
And here comes the interesting part
OF the story, WnlGQ We VIII enQeaNOr To
tell in Mrs. Rays own words. She
said:
Unknown to all these physicians. I
had been using preparation of which
had heard much didn't tell the
physicians because feared they would
ridicule me, and perhaps order its dis
continuance. During all the while that
the physicians were attending me the
preparation was steadily and faithfully
doing its own work in its own way,
and I had faith in its power. At last
the doctor said there was no use of his
coming, for he could do me no good. 1
had suffered so much that 1 was quite
willing to die, but it seems that 1 was
nearer relief than I knew. One week
from the day the doctor last called a
false growth, as large as a coffee cup,
and which looked as though it had been
very large left me / sent for a doctor,
and he declared it was fbTOid tumOr,
but said he had never known one to
come away of itself before. 1 imme-
diately began to gain health and
strength, and 1 unheSitatingly declare
solely 30 the marvellous effects of War

which certainly rescued me from the
grave 1t is my firm belief that many
ladies who are said to die of cancer of
the womb are cases like mine. and if
they could be induced to use Warmers

The above graphic accounts perfectly
true in every respect.It is said that
truth is stranger than felton, and

death, consider the story as above Civ

even although they may be now in the
depths of despOndency and misery. To
such ladies the above truthful account
