HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH.

|
 Former Pastor Now Located in New i Lopdon-The Proposed Uniting With
 First Baptist.
 The people of Hope Baptist chapel are pleased to learn that their former
 pastor, Rev. MT Elder, has succeeded to | the pastorate in New London occupied | by the late Rev. Dr. Stubbert. They are much pleased and gratif1ed that Mr.
 Elder has received such an appoint ment He is young man only twenty eight years of age and Hope Baptist chapel was his first charge. Hhe New London church to the pastorate of which
 he has just been appointed is the first
 and only one he preached in as a can
 didate after leaving Hope church. He was immediately engaged after his trial sermon.
 The Hope congregation is still hold ing services in the chapel and the pro posed uniting with the First Baptist church is still in abeyance. Rev. MT. Sage formerly pastor of the Grand avenue Baptist church, Is supplying the pulpit and the people of Hope church are much pleased with his preaching. Now that Professor Wayland, prom inent member of the church committee is to return soon from Europe, the mat ter of uniting with the First Baptist church will come up for discussion III the near future. Although not formally announced yet it is said that Professor Wayland will, in case the two congrega- tions unite, present a lot on Orange street, near the rear of his palatial resi- dence, for church site. It is under stood that this gift will be made only
 in case the union is an emphatic and enthusiastic one that will make strong church The matter will be brought up after his return from Europe.
 The First Baptist congregation is still holding together and meeting in Republican hall under the pastorate of Rev Addison Moore. The church held it's annual picnic at Mansfeld's grove Saturday.
 Although the Hope church congrega- ton is attached to the old location of the church and would like to remain there, feeling is prevalent among the mem bers that it might be we'll to unite with a stronger church because the sec tion of the city in which Hope church is now located is well supplied with churches, the Epworth Methodist church, Humphrey street Congrega- tional church, St. Johns Episcopal church, the German Lutheran church. and the Catholic chapel on Lawrence street being all located close together in that neighborhood. It is therefore thought that location on Orange street with the accession of the strength of the First Baptist church would be most desirable

4 NARROW ESCAPE.
NIT. Charles MOnsOn Falls One Story Through m Elevator Shaft, Receiving Painful Injuries.

On Saturday afternoon last MT. of the Charles Monson company, the
 well known dry goods house, was busy
 about some matters in the basement, and, desiring to do an errand on the floor above, he stepped into the freight
 elevator and started it upward. Reach ing the floor above, he stepped out and in a moment or SO, stepping backwards
 he intended to re-enter the elevator to go down, but the elevator was not there During the very brief interval the ele- vator had been started down again by some one. The next thing he found himself in a dazed state lying on the stone floor of the basement. Mir. Mon- son in falling turned complete somer- sault and must have received his weight on one of his hands, which was badly sprained, but this doubtless saved him from breaking his neck. He was con- veyed at once to his residence on Whit ney avenue. Dr. Whittemore attended almost immediately and found+it neces- sary to take several stitches in a long gash on the chin, which was cut to the bone MT. Monson's chest, arm and hand were badly wrenched and he re- ceived a pretty bad shaking-up gener- ally. Yesterday he was as comfortable as could be expected, considering the mishap and on the whole he is to be Congratulated upon his miraculous es- cape.
