Anecdote Which Illustrates His Gift at
Repartee

| Anecdote Which Illustrates His Gift at
Repartee.
The Philadelphia Saturday Evening
Post has this to say regarding a New
Haven man who has made fortune in
the Empire state and has also risen to
eminent position in that state. and
whose father was a noted New Haven
man, who was member of congress from
this district and later United States col
lector of internal revenue, with head
quarters in the old Brewster residence,
this city, which stood on Chapel street
where the Collins building is now:
Few men of prominence in public af-
fairs can compare with Lieutenant Gov
ernor Timothy L. Woodruff in many
sidedness. In his young manhood he
was an athletic light at Yale and fore
most in students pranks and frolics.
When his college days were over he
went into commercial and manufacture
energy, industry and good luck made
himself a millionaire. During this peri
cd it is said that he never violated his
rule to live frugally and to devote him
self to business until his income was
$4,000 a year.
When he reached this point he enter
ed political life and applied himself to
it as engrossingly as he had to manu-
featuring, and 1t may be added, as sue
cessfully. He rose rapidly from the
ranks until he became one of the lead
ers of the state, and in 1896 was elected
as the running-m mate of Governor Frank
s. Black and in 1898 of Theodore Roose-
welt. He has very pleasing person
atty and looks far more like a York
shire squire than typical American
He Is fastidious in dress to such an ex-
tent as to provoke the satire of political
opponents, who have dubbed him Tim
O. the Wescots" and "Necktie Timothy"
He is fluent speaker and writer, and
is quick at repartee. Once when in de-
batting with wealthy politician the lat
ter said:
Wealth gives you no advantage; I'm
as rich as you are
yes replied Mr. Woodruff, "but you
made your fortune out of politics, and
that's where I'm spending mine"

CHURCH NOTES.
Services at Humphrey-First Baptist
Church Building Fund.

Services at Humphrey:-First Baptist
Church Building Fund.
At the Humphrey Street Congrega-
tional church yesterday forenoon the
pastor, Rev. Mr.. Luckey OBLIGATED at
the communion service and administer
ed the rite of baptism to one infant.
The First Baptist church service at
Republican hall, last evening was in
the nature of a praise service in which
the members of the church choir and
congrega tional participated. There was
also short address by the pastor Rev
Addison Moore. This church is by de-
grees accommodating an addition to the
funds for the erection of a new church
edifice. 1t has at interest the money de-
rived from the sale of it's former church
edifice on Wooster square, which is
considerable sum, but a large addition
to it is requisite before steps can be
taken for the erection of a new church
There is a good prospect that church
will be built before many months pass.

S. Eldridge.
Rev Gardner s. Eldridge pastor of
the First M. E. church, preached an
eloquent and edifying sermon last even

words found in the third chapter of
Genesis and the ninth verse "And the
Lord God called unto Adam and said
unto him, Where art thou" The
thought was brought out that Cod
voice is ever calling to us, and it is the
part of true wisdom to hearken to it
and shape our lives in accordance with
