 lain of the Second regiment, preached Va sermon to the soldiers The conpa-
 nies formed at the armory at { o'clock and headed by the Second Regimen band marched to the church under com mand of Colonel Sucher. The men were in blue uniforms and wore blue caps and white gloves.
 Seats in the front of the church were reserved for the militiamen who filed in the men of each company sitting to- gether.
 Rev. MT. Phillips spoke from the text Mark x:45: And even the Son of Man came not to be ministered unto, but ' to minister and to give his life ran som for many" He spoke of the aver sion of man to dependence and said that men desired to stand alone and to rely upon their own efforts He then reminded that Christ appeared not as ruler, but as server and called at- tention to the fact that the kingly men of old were referred to in the Scriptures as servants of God or of Christ. All men are servants and the Master is over aIl His law is the law for all men and all are amenable to 1t. The moral law is the law of the world and pun *ishment follows its every violation. .e Rev. MT. Phillips referred in fine, lan- guage to the men who gave up their lives in the civil war and in the recent war with Spain, speaking in this last connection especially of Lieutenant Beach and Lieutenant Osborn.
 In closing his sermon he reminded the soldiers present that while war might not immediately call them to ac- tive service there was a great work for the citizen soldier to perform. It was his duty to exert all his energies for the best in civil life and civil govern ment. Every man has a duty to per- form in civil life to the city and to the state in seeing that men are put in office who are not seeking personal ag- grandizement but the public welfare, the good Of the state.

JULIE A. RIDA'S BAD FALL.
A Scaffold on Which He Was Painting
 Fell Saturday Afternoon.

A ScaHold on Which He Was Painting Fell Saturday Afternoon. While painting a sign on the south wall of c. S. Mersick & Co.'S building l on State street, between Chapel and Crown street late Saturday afternoon, Jule A. Rida, the well known sign
 painter. had bad fall which resulted
 in fracture of hip bone and a frac- ture of his righ wrist.
 MT. Rida and his son William H. Rida were engaged in painting the
 sign and had completed that portion of 1t which was on the upper part of the wall and had moved their scaffold down
 to about midway by the height of the
 wall The scaffold consisted of a ladder
 suspended at each end by ropes fasten- ed to hooks caught above and hanging
 ever an alleyway, which extends from
 the street into the rear of the building.
 Mr. Rida senior was sitting on the end of the ladder farthest from the street. They were about to shift the
 ladder and lower it a little when the hook to which was fastened the rope which held MT. Rida's end of the ladder slipped from its hold above and the end of the ladder crashed to the alleyway, precipitating MT. Rida headlong. The fall was about eighteen feet, and just as the hook gave way man happened to be walking through the alley and was just underneath. In his fall MT. Rida struck his hip against that of the man below, a glancing blow, there by probably saving him from much more serious injury. The man who was on the ground was somewhat stunned by the force of, the blow, and a piece was broken from MT. Rda's hip bone by the force of the impact.
 His son. who was on the other end of the ladder managed to save himself from falling by grasping the rope which held his end of the ladder. When the other end of the ladder struck the ground the younger man scaled down it to assist his father, who was lying on the ground. The elder Rida was taken into the office of ex-State Treas urer c. s. Mersick, and pr. Bellosa was called to attend yhim. The physicion found that in addition to having re- ceived the two broken bones, MT. Rida was much shaken up and bruised by the fall, and was taken home in hack. He will probably be laid up several weeks.
