TWO CHURCHES UNITE.
Plans for a Union of Belmont and Sum-
ner Street in One Organization.


Plans for union between the Belmont
Church and the Summer Street Church
were initiated several weeks ago by a
letter from the Summer Street Church
which was favorably received, and a
joint committee is now engaged in
arranging the details. Neither church
is just now pecuniarily prosperous, but
the belief is that in union there may be
strength Belmont Church has a
heavy debt, and some Of its members
have been attracted away by the forma-
ton Of the new Congregational Church
at Adams square, Rfd the Summer
Street Church has become the centre of
and has lost a good part of its congre-
cation. The LATTER is in part mission
church established by the late Ichabod
Washhiafn, who left $4,000 for preach
ing <Fservices and $4,000 for the sewing
school, only the income of which could
be used. That income would cease IL the
church organization were to be given
UP, but, with the permission of the pro-
bate court, it is held that the church
might unite with some other body and
hold its services in some other part OF
the city and preserve its income.
The committee which is devising a
plan of union, is made up Of representa-
tives of the two churches as follows:
Belmont-Rev. W. B. Oleson, John A.
Sherman, D. w. Thompson. Charles e.
Hinckley, G. w. Chamberlain and Ma
thaniel Whittlesey.
Summer Street-Rev. orange W. Bal
ley, Samuel A. Pratt, c. w. Dodge, John
Morgan, ]. P. Crosby and Arthur Whip
pie.
This committee has appointed a sub
committee consisting of the two pastors,
John A. Sherman, c. w. Dodge and
William Woodward, representing the
City Missionary Society," which hopes to
be able to formulate a plan of union
within the next two weeks.
1t is understood that Belmont Church
has an offer for its property which will
clear off the debt and leave balance
os about $1,000 so that there will be no
outstanding debt on either church when
the two come together.

NEW LONDON PLEASED.

The result of the long wrangle of the Yale, Harvard and Cornell rowing men over the choice of place, and the in- clusion of Cornell in the race on the Thames, has been announced and re- ceived with genuine delight by the peo- pie of New London, who feel that this consummation so devoutly wiched is due in a considerable degree to the ef- forts of the board of trades boat race committee and the diplomatic and unwearying spirit it evinced. There is nothing that Is too good to say of that committee, and nothing that will too fully convey the pleasure of the New Londoners at the prospect of a race in which plucky Cornell will participate. That is something to be very proud of, that was growing and increasing. and might have caused some very unpleas- ant results in the future.
 It is the very best thing for all the colleges that this agreement has been made, and it remains now for the peo- pie of this town tosgive to Cornell such hospitality as will remove the impress sion so strongly in the mind of the Ithacans that New London did not feel the incumbency of hospitality and show it in a courteous and considerate spirit. The Ithacans will probably leave with all their prejudices against New London and it's people removed New London Telegraph.

JOE JEFFERSON's MEMORY NOT
 GOOD OFF THE STAGE.

"Mr. Joseph Jefferson has a poor memory" said D. H. Sothern, land one morning rushed to his apart ments to return call he had shortly before made me. I found him with MT. Henry Watterson in close confi- dence, regaling themselves with re- factions on the laxity of the present generation in many things aside from payments and politics. Something brought to Watterson's mind a line in Rip Van Winkle,' but he could not recall the words. He squinted his game eye at Joe, and Joe covered his own game ear and said: 'Eh ? to the three-cornered Wattersonian glance. Then he tried to remember the line. He stumbled hopelessly, and then said:
 Oh, don't know what 1t is.'
 '" What do you mean by "dont know it?" Haven't you been playing 1t years?' shouted Watterson.
 "'Oh, well, I play the piece, but l don't know it!' said Jefferson in his soft. musical voice, with its odd little snarl at the periods. Cleveland Plain Dealer.

The Connecticut Mutual Life.

We print elsewhere this morning the annual report of Colonel Greene, presi- dent of the Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance company, and the company's statement of it's splendid strength and usefulness
 During the year it has grown in all directions-in assets, in amount of in surance, in numbers of insured, and in surplus. It's strength is absolute. With it's funds invested in the choicest of securities, 1t has a clean surplus ex- ceeding seven and a quarter million dollars. It is insuring over 66,700 per- sons for total of more than $157, ,70O,- 900. The Connecticut Mutual is the largest moneyed institution in New England, and none is stronger.
 \ But the company is not in the wild race for costly new business and for sudden greatness that some of it's com petitors are now engaged in-and wish they were not. The Connecticut Mu- tual is not willing to sacrifice the ir- terests of its present members for the sake of getting new members at their expense. It Is already large and strong to the point of complete independence and it considers it's own members first. To these Colonel Greene says it gives the most protection at the lowest cost"
 From the organization of the Connec- ticut Mutual to January 1, 1898, it had received from its policyholders $780, 855, ,215.69. It had paid to them $1SS,- 791,557.40, and it still holds for their benefit $63, ,5SS, ,600.9S. In these figures is found suggestive evidence of the | strength of the company and the wis., dom of it's conservative management
 Colonel Greene gives a good deal of space this year to the subject of the taxation of mutual life insurance com panies, and what he says deserves the closest attention. The policy of our own state as well as that of other states in this matter is already burden l some, and there are threats, at each
 session of the different legislatures of adding to the load It is time people | looked into the reasons, and stopped to | think what mutual life insurance company is and what taxation of 1t | means. Such action by the state is | really the taxing of loss not of a pos- session. Because the money is there | in sight, some persons assume at once | that it is suitable subject for taxes. | Let them read the clear statement in l this report and they will see how illog- ical is such an assumption and how un- | fair and oppressive such tax. The l real agitation to-day should be for an entire removal of the tax, which is an
 arbitrary and unjust measure. There | is no part of the report more important l than this, none sounder. It is a timely
 publication and very proper one. The
 state treasuries everywhere need
 guarding against raids from outside;
 all the more because the success of
 such raids leads to injustice and | tyranny in the exercise of the taxing
 power.
 | The issue raised by this report should
 be kept before the people, until they
 realize the simple justice and common
 sense of it. The insured, whose inter- ests it affects, can secure this result.
