l their work Brother Smith has left three monuments-the shaft of an i'm | portant public position filled with con-
 spicuous success and faithfullness; the | shaft represented by Epworth church where he was a devoted member and worker, having been for many years a l trustee and the chairman of the build I ing committee when the present editice | was erected. The third shaft, greatest of all was the memory he leaves in the | family of a faithful and loving father,
 husband and brother. For fifty years Brother and Sister Smith lived together | in married life which was full of peace and harmony.
 4. The leaf fades and falls to the
 ground, but does not die. The nine
 teenth century has taught us the inde- structability of matter. Brother Smith has fallen to the ground but he is not dead He has gone to receive the crown
 promised to those who are faithful, His life may be epitomized in the single line of one of our hymns,
 Servant of God well done"
 Rev Duane N. Griffing, former pas tor of Epworth church, of which the de- ceased superintendent was a valued member, followed MT Adams remarks with fervent prayer. The choir of the church sang several hymns very beau tifully.
 The procession at the funeral included the Second regiment band of twenty two pieces, the superintendent of police, the captains and sergeants and about c,iy of delegation from City lodge I. O. o. F., and delegations from the Order of Unit ed American Mechanics and Eze lodge, Knights of Pythias.
 The body lay in a handsome broad cloth-covered casket with oxidized ham, dies. The floral offering from the police department was cross of white roses and galix leaves four feet high. There was wreath of beautiful pink roses from the family, and the o. U. A. M. sent a handsome tablet of white and yellow roses with letters worked in with purple violets Eze lodge sent a hand some tablet indicating the sword and shield. There was also large wreath of white roses and ferns from ex-Police Commissioner Joseph c. Hubinger and there was wreath of roses from MT. and Mrs. c. L. Warner.
 The pallbearers were delegation from City lodge, I. O. o. F.-E E. | Woodruff, F. R. Thompson, William R. Happin, w. L. Tompkins, J. W. Stone and w. R. Mattson. The musical se- lections were furnished by the Epworth | church quartette, led by C. A. Morse. l The interment was in Evergreen ceme | cry

 Deacon A. W. Minor on "The Story of | Bethesda Mission as Told in Old Let | ters." The paper was very well given l by MT. Minor and the letters that he | read were enjoyed greatly Another | paper on "The Story of the Church as Derived from Old Records and Docu- | ments' was read by w. N. Butrick This paper was of great interest to the members of the church, as it gave an account of all the main facts in con- nection with the history of the church since it was founded. A number of "reminiscences were recalled by Rufus s. Pickett, and these, too were very in-
 teresting. The choir sang with beauti- ful effect at the evening service. There
 was no sermon at the evening service

FUNERAL OF EX-SUPT. SMITH
4 LARGE AITEND4NCE AT THE SERVICES AT TEPWORTH CHURCH.
pertinent Do Honor to Ex-Chiefs Memory-Eloqucnt Address by Rev. F. w. Adams.

The funeral of Treadwell Smith, for merly superintendent of the New Haven police department, was attended Satur- day afternoon at 2;30 o'clock from the EpWorth M. E. church. This service was preceded at o'clock with prayers at his late residence, 14 Cottage street. The services were conducted by Rev. MT. Adams of the Epworth church. There was large attendance of rela- tives and friends. The remains were escorted by seventydve policemen, pre- ceded by the Second regiment band. The services were solemn and impress Eive. Rev. MT. Adams paid an eloquent tribute to the deceased, of which the following is a synopsis:
 He likened his life to leaf He said: How does leaf fade? The green leaf of spring Is beautiful and full of prom ise, but by and by with the summer rains and the cooling days of Septem- Der, the sun begins to fringe the edge with soft yellow tints then little gold en shafts of sunlight take up their abode, with delicate brown and crimson tints and just a twinkle of green until a1e Whole leaf is infused with that ex- 9llslte coloring which is at once it's : larm and glory. It has grown old, but rown old beautifully.
 s"This was true of Brother Treadwell lnith. His three-score years and ten Eere but the autumnal foliage of a leautiful life-beautiful because true, aithful, sweet and obedent to duty" q MT. Adams then likened the late su- serintendent's life to leaf in the fol- ! Owing ways:
 H. The leaf is a worker It gathers H1e carbonic acid gas which is poison- Jus to man and animal, and gives out R1e oxygen which is life. The deceased Eas a purifier In that his work was to Yeanse the city from crime and wrong, sssnd to make life and property safe.
 t2. The leaves are builders. Ruskin hys they receive the sunlight and mois- 1lre that build the tree. Brother Tread we'll Smith was builder of a character that was manly and true.

THE LATE ABBY SAGE RICHARD
 SON.
Noted Dramatist, Authoress and Act

| Noted Dramatist, Authoress and Act
 ress Taught School in New Haven A recent issue of the New York Her aid contained an admirable article con cerning one whom many of our citizens will remember as teacher in the Web
 ster school, this city in the later fifties.
 She came to this city with Principal M.
 T. Brown, now connected with Tufts
 college, Boston, Among her contempo-
 rary teachers were the Misses Wash
 burn, Savage, Harris, Schmaek, Porter,
 and Curtis, and the young lads who
 then sat upon the benches of the school
 are now among the prominent business
 men of our city, while many of the girls
 who were under her teaching here oc- cupy honored positions in New Haven
 society. Mrs Richardson died in
 Rome, Italy, in her sixty-third year, as has been announced in these columns. The Herald in it's account of her life and the tragic event which cast a gloom over all her later days says:
 Tn her youth she was concerned in what has always been considered one of the great tragedies of the century, and its gloom continued to hang over her life despite the efforts of a wide cir ce of devoted friends.
 Miss Abby Sage was celebrated in New York as one of the most beautiful women of her time. She came from New England to this city with the in- tention of following literary career, and married a lawyer and politician named Daniel Mcfarland, who seemed to have none of the qualities of mind woman of Miss Sage's tastes might have been expected to demand in her ideal. Mir Mcfarland was of cold and reserved disposition and did not sympathize heartily with his wifes brilliant social and literary gifts. The was an unhappy one
 "Mr. Mcfarland was unsuccessful in his practice, and his wife sought to in crease the family income by giving recitations and readings. She was ask ad to appear at many social affairs, | and her beauty and her charm of man. her made her great favorite. Her hus- | band was intensely Jealous and often | followed her about, threatening to in- 1 lure her. She obtained a divorce from | Jim in 1888.

| Deane Richardson, one of the editors ot l the Tribune, and well known as a war l correspondent and man of letters. l He was standing in the counting
 room of the newspaper one evening in l November, 1862 when he was shot by i Mcfarland. The editor was taken to
 the Astor house in dying condition. Mcfarland made no resistance, and was at once arrested
 Mrs. Sage was married to MT. Rich | ardson on his death bed by Henry | Ward Beecher, her husband living only
 few days after the ceremony. Mcfarland was tried on the charge of murder and acquitted on the ground of emotional insanity. His trial arous- ed tremendous interest, and was the
 sole topic of conversation at the time.
 Public sympathy was strongly in his favor, and when the verdict of not guilty was announced an extraordinary scene of enthusiasm ensued. Men and women rushed for the acquitted man and he was deluged with tears and kiss es of joy. The incidents of the trial were subsequently embodied in the novel The Gilded Age, on which Mark Twain and the late Charles Dud- ley Warner collaborated Mcfarland died in Colorado several years ago
 Mrs. Richardson now turned her at- tention to literature. She wrote Tamil far Talks on English Literature,' old Love Letters, Stories from Old Eng fish Poetry History of Our Country, and 'Abelard and Heloise.'
 She recently translated several plays for Daniel Frohman and prepared Tger- ton Castles novel Pride of Jennco' for the stage She also wrote the play, | "A Colonial Girl

Tn Boston I encountered a parrot one day.
 Polly wants a cracker" I observed, thinking nothing.
 Your language is extremely anoma- lous' replied the bird, severely. Polly is colonial, while cracker in the sense of biscuit, is distinctly post-bellum. Moreover, I am not conscious of want ing a cracker I wouldn't mind plate of pork-and however"
 The fowls scholarly dignity was what impressed me particularly.-Detr Journal

ANNIVERSARY SERVICES
1T HOWARD AVENUE CONGREGA.
 TIONAL CHURCH YESTERDAY.

I Very Interesting Attendance l was Lnrgc-Program of the Service for this Evening.
 The thirty-fifth anniversary of the
 Howard avenue Congregational church
 was celebrated yesterday and the exer-
 cises at both the morning and evening
 services were very much enjoyed. The
 attendances were large and the num-
 bers on the programme were very in
 teresting. The anniversary sermon to the congregation was delivered at the morning service yesterday, and it was beautiful one and one that will long be remembered by all who heard it. Rev. MT. Mutch spoke of the growth of the church during the past thirty-five years and told of what could be done to increase interest in the church work, and of what each member should do to make the church. as prosperous during the next thirty-five years, as it has been for the last thirty-five years. The title of the sermon was the ''Call of lHG lulLilEuG, tLlltt lIG lGhI WdS lGhSH from Luke ix, 27, which is as follows: And it came to pass. on the next day, when they were come down from the great multitude met him.
 The sermon will appear in to-mor- rows issue of this paper.
 Following the sermon was the anni- hymn, the words of which were written by the Rev. MT. Mutch and the music was to the tune "Eventide." The hymn is in four stanzas and the words are beautiful The rest of the music during the service was also very fine, and the full choir of seventeen voices never sang better.
 The organist and choir director is Henry K. Beach, and he deserves great credit for the excellent way in which he had trained the choir for the different pieces that they rendered. The regular service was followed, but there were more musical selections than usual.
 In the evening the services were also very largely attended, and the pro- gramme was thoroughly enjoyed.

A GENTLEMAN CUSTOMER SAID:

If had to wade through snow three feet deep to the top of the Woodbridge Hills to buy an Emerson Piano, I would make the journey. I had seven sisters. My father bought Emerson Piano for our home and they all took lessons on it. When they got married, my father bought them each an Emerson Piano. I am now sixty years old, and the original Emerson Piano, and the other seven Emerson Pianos are still in use in the family and good pianos yet, and am now buying this $5OO.OO Emerson Piano for my granddaughter When any piano dealer, or agent, tells me the Emerson Piano is not durable, they NOT ONLY JAR ME-, BUT THEY MAKE ME MAD.'
