REV. {. F. HoLWAY TO LEAVE
Pastor of Trinity Church viii Ask for Z
Change of Location.

Rev. r. F. Holway desires to sever his
pastoral connections with Trinity NJ. e..
Church, and at the coming session of the
conference in this city this spring will ask
for a change of location.
This news will come as very general
surprise, not only to the Methodlsts of the
CITY but to the congregation at Trinity M .
E. Church as well. Only the pleasantest
of relations have existed between pastor
and people since Rev. Mr.. Holway as
sumed the pastorate. and not until last
evening was any member of the church
aware that the pastor was even contem-
plating any such step.
The announcement was made by Rev.
Mr.. Holway at the adjourned meeting. Of
the official board of the church. which fol-
lowed the usual Wednesday, evening
prayer meeting last night. DR.. Holway
said that he should ask for change EN-
tirely from personal reasons, and did not
wish that his action should be construed
as being caused by grievance of any ma
ture. There were none, he said.
A committee consisting of John Legg, ii.
d. Barbour and 3. f. Miner was appointed
to confer with Presiding Elder Mansfield
in regard to the pastorate for another
year.
Rev. Mr.. Holway was seen by repre-
sentative of the Spy date in the evening,
but was unwilling to discuss the matter
He said there was nothing to say further
than what had been inculcated in his
statement to the members of the official
board.
During his pastorate here of three years
1879 persons have connected themselves
with the church, an average of 63 per year.
There are number of others who will be
admitted before the conference next April.
The church building has been renovated
and improved at cost of 5000, all of
which has been provided for.
A home and kindergarten department
have been added to the Sunday school,
there is a fiourishing Chinese Sunday school
and an elegant new parsonage has been
purchased by the Ladies Society

WANT THEIR MAILS.
Leicester People Blame ostmasterGreene
and Not the Snow for Non-anivaI
of Mails.

Early Wednesday morning, Postmas-
ter Greene heard from Leicester, and
was asked by citizens for a reason for
the non-arrival in that town of mails
from Worcester since Monday. The
postmaster explained things by tele-
phone as best he could for time, but
after a while the calls became so fire.
quent that he was forced, for lack of
time, to stop answering them. Later in
the day, some enthusiastic citizen of the
windy hill, telephoned in the Informal
ton that telegram was to be sent to
Senator Hoar, asking for the immediate
removal of the Worcester postmaster
Some one else suggested that Leicester
be made sub-station in order to make
sure of getting the mails. The mail
was started for Leicester Wednesday
forenoon, and got through before night.
The carriers are still having a hard
time of it, and it will be some days be-
fore full deliveries and collections can
be made. An effort is made to supply
to the sub-stations as far as possible.

AT TER TIE STORM
scontinued From First Page,

night fell, nearly all of the streets in
the city and those leading out to the
city line in every direction had been
broken out. A great deal of snow was
removed from Main street and Front
street, but little has been done with the
removal of snow from the side streets.
There is some criticism of the street
commissioner because he has devoted
so much time to breaking out the coun-
try roads, and allowed the snow to lie
piled up in the centre of the city Over
80 teams and 200 men are at work. I'm
less more men and teams can be Sc
cured, the work must necessarily be
slow. superintendent Prior is quoted
as saying that he has all the force at
work that he can handle with economy.
The longer the snow lies the more peo-
pie will kick The amount to be re-
moved is positively enormous, and one
not familiar with the work can have
little idea of the undertaking The
work is present costing the city fully
$500 a day.

n EPOCH OF SUICIDES.
What Does This Frightful In
crease Of Suicides Mean?
Are Our People Fast Becoming a
Nation Of Nervous Wrecks?
Some Startling Facts Which Stare Us
All in the Face,

Three suicides in one day in Boston and
five in New York on the day following. In
each case because of nervous breakdown,
encouragement or despair.
A sad story, indeed! And how import
ant the lesson it teaches 1t should appeal
to you'll These suicides needed not the
first symptoms of disease, the aching
head, pain in the back, loss of appetite,
constant distress from food, sleepless
nights, WEAKNESS and gradual breaking
down in health, until brain and nerves
gave way under the strain and severe sick
ness followed.
Heed the warning. Neglect is danger
Gus and the fate of these poor sufferers
may be the fate of many.
DR.. Greene's Nervura is the one medi-
cine of all others that is especially adapted
to the fortifying of the system against
such inroads of disease. 1t gives renewed
life, vigor and vitality to brain, nerves
and body.
