A new method Of lighting tunnels is
about to be adopted in one constructed
in Paris for an electric road. Electric
lamps will be turned on automatically
as the train enters the tunnel and cut
off automatically as it energies. The
lights are arranged on each side on Il
level with the windows of the cars, so
that during daytime it will not be nee
essarry to turn on the light in the
cars. This mode has been devised by
Il French inventor, and doubtless will
be found OF great utility.

Spain is thinking only of how she can
reduce her naval expenses. and is very
far indeed from the epoch when she
hoped so much from the submarine
vessels which had been invented by
Lieut.. Peral. Whether it was because
her performance fell below what had
been expected. or because her inventor
was not allowed to so on with his
attempt. the Peral has been laid up
for tgo years in Il Spanish arsenal.

fauily's prospective departure to the west in
the near future, this reception was planned
farewell to them by his parshloners aud
10y their many friends outside the church.
The hours of the reception We're from to 10
O'Clock, and despite the storm very many
people called at the han during that time
Unity hall had been prettlly furnished and
decorated for the OCCASION and in the rear of
the apartment four refreshmeut tables were
attractively set torJh Offering chocolate, cot
fee and cake for the guests,
The young men of the church acted as ush-
ers, presenting the guests to Mr.. and Mrs.
Gilmore and those receiving with them. The
latter We're Madame Gilmore, Mr., and Mrs
Charles Greenman, Mrs. Emeline Bradley,
Miss En- iine Carey and Mr.. Thomas s. Brad
ley, prominent members of the First Parish
church and intimate friends and associates of
the pastor and his wife in the parish work.
All of the guests had words of regret to utter
TO the pastor and his wife, coupled with eX
presslons of warm commentator for the sue
cess that had attended their connection with
the church, the constant and unfailing efforts
for its unbulding and uplifting, and the
strong influence that their presence had al
ways been toward inspiring and stimulating
all those with whom they had come in con-
tact to higher ideals and more worthy lives.
There We're noticeable among those that
were gathered about Mr.. and Mrs. Gilmore
a large number of people who were not of
the Unitarian parish, but who have been
numbered among their friends and associ-
ates in other ways. The school committee,
with whom Mr.. Gilmore has been promi-
nently connected, the Masonic fraternity
with which he is identified, and many Others
whom the pastor and his wife have met in a
social way were represented at the farewell
reception.
Pleasant features of the evening were
