Flourishng Condition

Rev. w. J. Mutchs Church in a Most
Flourishing Condition.
The pastor and congregation of the
howard avenue Congregational church
are looking forward to the time when
the improvements on the interior Of the
church will be completed and regular
services resumed, There has been no
sunday school or preaching since July
ana prayer and the young peoples
meeting. which have been held in the
ladies parlors, have been the only SER
vices. The church will be completed,
however, it is thought, by next Sunday
and a large attendance at the services
is looked for.
The improvements. while they have
not been 30 expensive as those of other
churches made recently are expensive
enough to change the appearance of the
interior most beautifully, The walls
and ceiling have been entirely repaint-
ed and refrescoed, and all the work has
been done In oil by Contractor Schenck.
1t has been greatly admired by those
who have seen 1t. AS the church has
been renovated entirely without recent
ly it will be in the best of condition. An
aohAtASl tliC pEftutlAdA Will
dow put in recently by Dr. and Mrs.
Lambert, whose young son Harold died
last summer.
An announcement OF Importance Is
that the remainder of the church debt,
to $1,000, will be paid off be-
fore the end Of the year. As the pas
tor, Rev. w. ]. Mulch, will celebrate
his fifteen years of pastorate with the
church the event will be the occasion Of
q large celebration.

THE BRANFORD RACES.
Entries Close TO-day--Thrce Races and
Special Attraction Patrons to he
Favored with Special Train The
New Stage Road.

Harry Cushman, the capable score
tary of the Branford Driving park, an
nounced yesterday that the entries to
the races to be held on Monday next
(Iabor day., at the Branford track,
will close to-day. The classes and
purses are as follows: 2:25 class, pace,
purse 5000; 2:40 class trot or pace,
purse 5000; 2:15 class, pace, purse, $500.
AS the amount offered for the last
named race Is a substantial one it Is
presumed that there will be an interest
ing strife for first money, $780, and an
equally close contest for the second
prize $75, in the same class. For the
slower classes the customary amount
offered will undoubtedly insure good
racing.
The special attraction that has been
secured to entertain visitors is the
Bates and Schufelt combination Of
trick and comedy cyclists. The comedy
part of their exhibition is very anus
ing. The concert by the band will
surely be very enjoyable.
The special train for race patrons
that is to leave this city at 1:10 D. m.
will stop at the new station on the
Shore Line railroad, from which point
passengers can enjoy ride over the
new stage road to the trotting park.

Life Imprisoument the Utm ost Penalty
f0r Murder Ina Italy,

Milan, Aug. 29.--The trial of Bresci
the anarchist who on July 70, shot ana
killed King Humbert of Italy, at Mon
ga, began here to-day An immense
crowd gathered about the court from
early morning, seeking admission TO
! the court room. where only a few places
We're reserved for the ticket holding
public. The hearing began at o'clock.
Bresci sat in the dock, calm and al
most Indifferent. His counsel, Stgnor
Martelli, had Of the Milan bar, and the
anarchist writer, Signor Merlino MADE
requests on various grounds for an ad-
| journment, which were refused.
| While the indictment, which was
very long, was being read, Bresci was
apparently unmoved, and scanned the
faces of the audience without signs Of
fear or effrontery. The indictment
showed that the assassin had practiced
much at target shooting, and that he
prepared bullets so as to render them
more dangerous.
The witnesses were then introduced.
There We're eleven for the prosecution
and five for the defence. The royal
groom, Lupi, described his seizure OF
Bresci by the throat after the assassina-
ton, and a witness named Ramella,
who lodged with Bresci and a friend
three days prior to the crime, said that
the prisoner was always perfectly calm
The examination of Bresci followed.
He declared that he decided to kill King
Humbert after the events in Milan and
Sicily ito avenge the misery of the
people and my own" He added: II
acted without advice or accomplices
The prisoner admitted the target
practice and the preparation Of bullets.
He spoke in a low, firm voice, and said
that he fired three shots at three yards
with his revolver. Two wooden targets
We're here placed on the table before
the judges.
A brigadier Of gendarmes, Salvatore,
recapitulated the story Of the assassin
alton Of the king. He said he saved
Bresci from the crowd, who nearly
lynched the assassin.
General Avogardro des Contes di
Quinto, the kings aide-de camp, who
who was with the king when he was
killed, recounted how he was shot, say
ing that in answer to question Of the
witness after the crime, the king re-

The testimony of witnesses Calm
bert and Oliviers did not adduce any
new facts.
Sgnor Merlino said he only wished to
do his duty and defended anarchy Of
the charge that it had inspired the
crime. All parties he declared, had
their regicides. He asked that those in
whose hands the PRISONS fate lay would
not act in spirit of vengeance but of
justice. He claimed extenuating cir
cumstances for the accused man.
