One of the interesting and elaborate

RAILROAD MEN

From the Keystone eState-InterestinE Ser mon at the Howard Avenue Congrega- tional Church.
 At the Howard avenue Congregation nl church yesterday morning Rev. Dr. Mutch preached, taking for his text "The Seed is the Word of God"-Luke S:11.
 Dr. Mutch mentioned the soil repre- sented as productive. It is not barren nnd unfruitful, but it is occupied by all manner of wild growths, as well as by that which is good. The wild growth has never been fully subdued, and now 1t is growing more rapidly than the good seed.
 The class of people represented by this soil are very largely in the church. es. They are protesting Christians and have actually received something ot the divine life. There has, however been a serious defect at the outset There was not a complete surrender It was a partial conversion.
 In the evening the gospel train ha6 charge of the service. The crew of this train is from the Pennsylvania railroad department of the Young Mems Chris. tian association of Camden, N. J. These are all practical railroad men and prac tical Christian men. The crew is made up as follows: MT. T. J. Berrian, en gineer; MT. s. L. Jones, firemen; MT c B. Provost, brakeman; Mr. w. A.

Addresses a Large Audience at St..
 Aloysius Hall.
 A large audience heard Eugene ". Debs, the noted labor leader and head of the Social Democracy of America, speak at St. Aloysius hall, Saturday night. He spoke for two hours and was heartily cheered. He said that the number of the unemployed in this country reached into big figures Min CTS were working for starvation wages and living under conditions that dis graced civilization. This ought to be changed. This state of things ac- counted in part for the army of tramps in the land. Machinery has run men out of employment. All the organized forces of society are against the poor man. There is something out of gear. Extreme wealth and extreme poverty existed. Agitation is objected to, but how cure evils without agitation. Abolitionism was once as offensive in this country and unpopular as so- cialism is to-day. The national legisla- tors and the supreme court are tainted with the poison of capitalism. Evils can be rooted out, wrongs can be right ed.
 In Hazleton those miners were mur- dered in cold blood by the very men who are slowly killing them by other means. We don't want to oust the I foreigners. I don't take an extreme view. I believe things are coming out right It is coming out through the | ownership of railroads, telegraphs and | all such public benefciaries by the pub, l 1ip And in m other WAY

Another great attraction is announced for Poli's Wonderland theater this week when Mile. Troja will head the bill. Troja came to this country from Paris about three years ago under contract with Roster & Bial, and during the time that she has been here she has been appearing with short intervals of absence at that famous New York mu- dozen or two of bills in the house dur ing that time that failed to carry the name of Mile. Troja. She ranks as a comedienne of a very high order, hav- ing the peculiar Frenchy style that is so fascinating. She has a repertoire of very racy songs, too, which will be sure to make a sensation, even as they did when sung at Roster & BiaPs. Mile. TroJa will make no other appearance in Connecticut during her stay in America. To support her strong com- bination of stars has been gotten to- gether, including the three Powers brothers, the Fitzgibbons Trio, Pursey Ashton and Conrad, Miss Nellie Burt Professor Parker and his canine circus Derenda and Brein, and Parkinson and Rotta.
