church was ~liquidated. The latter
minister remained here until Septem-
Der, 1893, when he returned to his old
home in Europe. Afterwards Rev.
Philip J.. Hob, the present pastor, ac-
.cepted a call from the congregation,
and to his efforts it may be said is
due in a large measure the present
f1ourishing condition of the church.
During the past several years the
membership has greatly increased and
improvements on a more or less extern
sive scale have been made in the vari-
Gus departments. The church, which
now enters upon the second half
century of its existence, is practically
out of debt and has exceedingly bright
prospects for the future.
The organizations in connection
with the church are the Beneficial So
ciety, Ladies Aid Society, Mission
League and Young Ladies' Society.
The Sunday school of the church has
a large membership at present and the
choir is composed of some of the most
talented ~vocalists in the city. The
present church council is composed of
H. F. Nolte, president; August Rosel,
financial secretary; Henry Hartman,
corresponding secretary; F. Stroeh-
man, treasurer; John Ernest and c. A.
Meyer elders; John c. Strobel and
Henry Kraft, trustees; Charles H.

ONCE IN AWHILE.


1t is easy enough to be pleasant,
| When life flows by like song,
But the man worth while is the one wht
will smile
When every thing goes wrong.
For the test Of the heart is trouble,
And it always comes with the years,
And the smile that is worth the praises
of earth
Is the smile that shines through tears.
II is easy enough to be prudent
When nothing tempts you to stray,
When without or within no voice of sin
Is Turing your soul away.
But its only negative virtue
Until it is tried by fire,
And the life that is worth the honor of
earth,
Is the one that resists desire.
BY the clinic, the sad, the rallen,
Who had no strength for the strife,
The worlds highway is numbered today
They make up the item Of life.
Bnt the virtue that conquers passion,
And the sorrow that hides in smile.
It is these that are worth the homage Of
earth
For we find them but once in awhile.

The Capt. French Memorial Window

The dedication of the Capt Moses
French memorial window in the Meth
odist church of Solon, presented by his
comrades of the I'd Maine Cavalry, was
the occasion Nov. 2lst of a large and
notable gathering in that village and
most impressive exercises. The win
dow is beautiful affair, and is an elo-
quent tribute to Capt. French, a brave
soldier and one of the leading citizens
of that section. In the absence of
Lieut. William H. Moody, the exercises
were presided over by Lieut. S. C. Small
OF Boston. After a selection by the
choir, there was reading of the Scrip
lures by Rev. Wilbur +. Berry of Wa
terville, Me-, followed by prayer by Rev,
William G. Wade of Solon, and then
the history of the church was read by
Rev. Enos T. Adams Of Skowhegan,
Me. MI. Adams dwelt upon the origin
and spread of Methodism in Maine,
and the founding, 95 years ago, of the
Solon Methodist church. with which
the French family has been prominent
ly connected. Lieut.. S. C. Small of
Boston, quartermaster of the regiment,
spoke on the Citizen Soldier, of whom
Captain French is a good type. After
the exercises there was reception by
Capt. French, assisted by his daughter
and son-in-law, Rev. and Mrs. Wilbur
F. Berry of Waterville, which proved a
most enjoyable close to the day.
