Central Falls Presbyterian Chnrch to BE
Occupied Tomorrow.
The First United Presbyterial Society of
this city will enter their new home to-
morrow for the first time. The new church
is one of the handsomest and best ap-
pointed in the Blackstone Valley, and is
from new design by l.. B. Walk d Sons of
Brooklyn, N. Y.
The First United Presbyterian Church
Society was organized in November, 1893,
and for period worshipped in Foresters'
Hall on Lonsdale avenue. Later the quar-
ters there were thought to be insufficient
for growing congregation and the
society moved to the Y. M. G. A. hall at
Pawtucket, where they have since wor-
shipped. The church was organized by
the Boston Presbytery, of which it is a
member, and at the time of organization
had membership of SO. Since that time
the congregation has increased several
fold, and now draws It's membership from
all the surrounding section, with Man
vile, Pleasant View, Woodlawn and
Saylesville as the extreme points.
Rev. William Barr, formerly assistant
pastor of the Eight United Presbyterian
Church of Philadelphia, and graduate Of
Princeton College and Allegheny Thelogi-
cal Seminary. For the present only the
vestry will be used, as the auditorium
room will not be finished until early
spring. The program at the services to-
morrow will be very interesting. Well
known clergymen will be present to ad-
dress the congregation and extend to them
encouraging words in their noble under
taking. Rev. Mr.. Barr will give descrip-
tive history of the parish and its future
work in the community.
Went to Rehoboth.
Yesterday afternoon a party of High
street young ladies, numbering about
twenty, chartered large sleigh for trip
to Rehoboth, where they called upon Mrs.
Daniel Cash, former resident of this city.
Mrs. Cash was expecting them, and a
sumptuous repast was awaiting their COM
ing. After justice had been done to the
table the balance of the day was spent in a
pleasant and social talk. The party ar
rived home early in the evening, delighted
with their trip to Rehoboth.

Taken For n Burglar.
A well-known business man of Central
street had an experience Thursday evening
which, for the time being, caused cold
shivers to pervade his system. Visions OF
highwaymen loomed up before him, and
he debated for while whether he would
throw his purse I'm the middle OF
the road and dash for place of
safety, or whether he would stand and
face the music. In a moment or so the
fears Of the liquid dispenser disappeared,
as he recognized the familiar form Of Ser
geant Louks. The sergeant was hunting
