FOR THANKSGIVING. I

| An Appeal From the City Missions.
To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
| Strive who have the privilege Of
service in the City Missions are always
glad at the return Of Thanksgiving time
because of the additional work it brings
to us. For those whose burdens we
have been helping to bear through the
year always hope for special uplift
on Thanksgiving day. And they have
always had it. Not from us alone, but
| from those of our large New Haven
| family who have 80 many times
| through us generously shared Of their
| abundance with the many members Of
that family less favored than them
| selves.
| AS missionary pastor my parish ex-
tends to all parts of the city. My call
to this ministry is not only the voice
| of God but the cry Of distress from hui
| man hearts. A claim to my care is an
existing need Of body or soul not yet
supplied by others. Miss Hume, our
faithful lady missionary, is closely link
ed to hundreds of homes through her
| untiring efforts for the women and chill
dren che finds there TO our doors
throughout the year come the people of
fifteen different nations Of the earth
here in New Haven and without any
other constant Christian care And
within their doors, on more than one
hundred different streets Of the city, we
stand in the behalf of Christ and His
church of many names. And at this
Thanksgiving time we wish to 60 to
these homes with gifts in our hands, as
well as with love In our hearts. viii
not your readers help to make it pos
sible for us to do SO? In their behalf
Miss Hume and myself will gladly dis
tribute whatever may be sent to the
Mission hall or to our homes
May l add these words from our gov
ernor's Thanksgiving proclamation:
ION that day let the hand of charity
spread feast in every home of pow
erty, for it is more blessed to give than
TO receive"
Respectfully yours,
w. d. Mossn1an.

A SLIGHT FIRE.

Box 10 was struck yesterday fore
noon. There was a slight fire at the
factory of j. j. Hart, manufactured of
wire goods, at so Commerce street, caus-
ed by sparks falling into varnish pot,
lively blaze ensuing. The fire was put
out before the firemen arrived On the
second floor of the building at the rear
is John #. Scholl's cigar factory and
when the workmen there saw the pot of
blazing varnish thrown downstairs and
the staircase blazing up they became
alarmed, fearing that the fire would be
serious one and their means of egrass
would be cut off. One of them, John
Isaacs. lost his head and jumped from
the window to the sidewalk, distance
of about ten feet. His ankle was sprain-
ed and the injury will probably lay him
up for two or three weeks.

last year. 1t never begins until after
copious or long rains. The fall has
been very dry, All the streams are
very low Until the streams are full we
shall have no extremely cold weather,
or much of anything in the winter
way" He has proven good prophet
thus far, and as the streams are still
very low and it will take fortnight s
rain to raise them, winter may not get
here this time until Christmas, which
is about month later than last year
Most people will get enough Of winter
If it doesn't begin till after January 1.
