AT THE CHURCH OF THE RE
DEFMER

The new order of Sunday evening SER
vice at the Church of the Redeemer is
exceedingly interesting and very pop
ular.
A special musical programme is rem
dered by the choir at each of these SER
vices under the direction of Professor
Shepard. There is also a responsive SER
vice between the pastor and choir and
pastor and congregation, and short
address by the pastor upon the living
questions of the day.
Both DR.. Phillips and Professor Shep-
ard are so well known to the New Ha-
ven public that it is not necessary to
add shat these services are not only
highly entertaining but very instruc-
tive.
The members of the church extend
most cordial invitation to all to enjoy
these services with them. Ushers will
be at the doors to provide good seats
for all who may attend.

THE TAYLOR SIrIT

Interesting developments came out In
the superior court yesterday in the Mil
ford case of Margaret E. Conrey vs.
the executors (the children by the first
wife) of the estate of the late Fl. A.
Taylor, the millionaire of Milford, who
gave a library and a church to that
place.
A motion was made in the case yes
terday to have it defaulted for failure
to file an answer. The plaintiff, who is
the mother of TayIor's last wife, asks
for $4,000 for caring for the child of her
daughters union with Taylor, who was
his second wife. The Taylor appeal
| from probate, which is also soon to
come up in this court, is a part of this
same family affair The defendants in
the first named case wish to have the
care of the boy themselves
| An amendment by order of the court
was filed in the first named case yes
terday In 1t Attorney Talcott Fl. Rus
sell says for Mrs. Conrey that the obli-
cation from the executors to the plain
tiff is the obligation arising by law
from the facts stated. He goes on:
elizabeth Taylor Che mother of the
said Bayard Taylor, was the daugh-
ter of the plaintiff and the wife of the
| deceased, Henry A. Taylor. She was
divorced from him on September rs,
1890. BY agreement between husband
and wife, she together with the child,
| Bayard Taylor, then an infant, with
| the plaintiff in New York, resided
During all said times mentioned in
the complaint and during which the
board and necessarfes were supplied,
ead Henry A. Taylor was Of loose and
immoral life, and maintained, in his
own house and elsewhere, habits of
constant debauchery and drunkenness
which made his home a wholly improp-
err place and unsafe place for the resi-
dence of young children.
