ARRESTED AS DESERTER.
Trouble for We'll Known Forestville
 Young Man.

Young Man.
 Bristol, Jan 15.-Clinton BunneH, 19 years old, well known young man in Forestville. is in trouble of a serious nature He was arrested yesterday by Officer Harlan Norton of Forestville, charged with desertion from the army, and is now in the lookup of that vil- lage. Bunnell formerly worked as q clerk in Reynolds drug store and as sisted Chief Arms last year in captur- ing the gang of boy burglars who in fested the village at that time. Some months ago the young fellow enlisted in the United States army and had a good record until he secured ten days furlough in December to visit his home in Forestville. He was then stationed at Fort Hamilton. Bunnell came to Bristol and it is said started for Fort Hamilton in time to report before his furlough had expired.
 When in New York he met some friends, with whom he visited long enough to use up the ten days. Then he became worried about the outcome of his case and returned to Bristol. While here he sold his uniform. includ- ing a heavy army overcoat. for $1. 70 a local brakeman in the freight yard at Bristol. From here he went to Water bury and secured work ill a factory, returning to Bristol for a short time a few days ago. Officer Norton received notice of Bunnell's desertion and he was watching for him.

FATHER TREANOR'S CHURCH
An Excellent Showing Made During

An Excellent Showing Made During
 the Year Just Closed.
 The Rev Hugh Treanor rector of St Patrick's parish read his annual report on Sunday, says the Norwich Bulletin the statistics presented indi- eating a remarkably prosperous year for the church. On January 1st, 1900. d balance of &2.1O2 .03 remained in the treasury: and including this sum the total receipts of the parish for the year reached the gratifying amount of S22 ,294.31, principally from the follow ing sources: Rent of pews, $3,J6S.O4; ; from sittings. $4,4SS.2O: offertory col lections, $594.9S; parish collections, st. .G25S5; donation for Ryrnes mem orial bell, $1OO; cemetery receipts, So Oe3.15: diocesan collections. includ- ing offerings for Indian and negro mission, Galveston sufferers, etc, $90479.
 The total expenditures were S22 ,G15.39, the chief disbursements be- ing, for salaries of priests, teachers Ill Parochial school, organist and seXtons, S6. 135: for interest on church debt S1 ,O59.25: fuel, S1,0O1.S2; water and gas. $345.4O; waters motor for organ S12S4O. The Sachem Park property has been purchased for future ceme- teEN DuIpOStS, lic pi iNS pe'i' D>-'No S5.5OO. This is regarded as an eX- ceptionally advantageous purchase, as there are At acres in the tract, one half being woodland. the wood alone being worth the price paid for the property. The building on the grounds is insured for $2,OOO. The payment of S2.O0O on the church debt leaves the indebtedness of the parish at an even so5,OO0.
 The report was the best possible commentary upon the zeal and actElty of Father Treanor and his assistants | while indicating that the division of the parish by the setting off of the | Norwich town portion, with independ- ent resources and expenditures, has | had no perceptible effect upon the revenues of the main church. the par ishioners working with redoubled zeal to supplement the efforts of their pastor in making the year successful one.

BROOKLYN Brlrfs

-Dr De Bnc has just opened an Of. flee at 695 North Riverside street.
 It, was James Mellon, not . boy named McAuliffe, who found the watch and chain belonging to the late Michael McNally in the Naugatuck river Sunday.
 The boys minstrels held q full dress rehearsal last evening and . very successful one it was. M. H. Sbeiyey, the noted comedian, who iS showing the boys how to sing coon songs and crack jokes in right royal style, was present. Tomorrow night the ladies' minstrels will hold an im- portant rehearsal in the Lyceum. and on Thursday night there will be a meeting of all the ladies who are to be connected in any manner with the annual fair of St Patricks parish. either as canvassers. waitresses or in any other capacity in the Lyceum at 7:3O.
 Here are few samples of the many and varied fish stories that are being spread about this section to-day. Chris Dunphy, Frank Sheridan and Oliver Blanstield enjoyed a two days fishing trip to Bantam lake, and they report the best of success. They ar- rived home last evening with one of the handsomest strings of pickerel seen in this section in many a day Forty-eight fish there were in all, hav- ing combined weight of fifty-three l pounds. Their friends are enjoying i not a fish story to- day. but the real i article, fish repast. Alderman Dan Mahaney, E. J.. Roach Joseph Begnal and Dennis Blansfield claim that the result of their days sport were sim | ply astonishing. They say they cap tured seventy fish. many of which i weighed two and three pounds One fish weighed about five pounds, the largest ever pulled out of the Branch. The party of which Martin Quinn was leader reported fair luck. They were the happy owners of a handsome string or tWenty-tWo. pickerel. A man who Knew said that the rivalry between | brlckelS and Alderman Mahaney's party was intense. That the former got the drop on the latter starting, and that when Alderman Mahaney and his party arrived at the Branch the pond
 was literally covered with the fishing apparatus of Brickel's party That

 only four fish, and. to increase their

MISSION WELL ATTENDED.
Father Lynch Preached to a Large
 Audience Last Evening.

Father Lynch Preached to Large
 Audience Last Evening.
 The attendance at the mission at St Francis Nayier's church last night was so large that many were standing at the main entrance and people were crowded into every hole and corner in the building, some going so far as to find seats on the stout cross beams that support the roof. Father Lynch delivered the sermon, taking for his subject, Mortal sin.'' He spoke for nearly an hour and by the time he got through if there was one with in the hearing of his voice that had not profited by the discourse it was because he preferred to live in sin rather than serve God. Father Lynch is a very convincing speaker and the men folks of the different parishes who have heard him are delighted with his treatment of the questions he discusses. for he not alone pictures sin in all it's hideousness, that is so far as such thing is possible for man to do, but also tells his hearers how to rise above their passions and persevere in their good resolu- tionS to the end. He talks right to the point, and every inte1li- gent being who has heard him knows | it. The manner in which he laid bare | the private sins of wicked people last | night showed knowledge of the dark l side of life which no man could pos I sess unless lie had access to the se- crets of mems souls. His fierce de
 nunciation of the crime of married
 and single men ruining young women l and his reference to the trial now on i in Paterson of men charged with ! bringing about the death of a girl to
 hide their filthy deeds. were among the
 gems of his brilliantly eloquent ser ] mon. and while he was dealing with l this phase of it his audl ence scarcely breathed. There will DC 1 two services this evening, one at
 o'clock for married men and another
 at S:3O for single men.

WILL ISSUE A PERMIT.
Law Allows Athletic Clubs to Hold Sparrng Contests,


 Law Allows Athletic Clubs to Hold
 Sparring Contests.
 New York, Jan 15.-Mayor Fleisch- man of Cincinnati. who has arrived ill this city, says thnt he will certainly issue . permit for the Jeffries- Ruhlin fight, two days prior to the date of the event, which is February 15.
 In explaining the situation, he said:
 "For the last ten years we have had sparring contests in Cincinnati. These events have been held by ath- letic clubs in some cases and in other instances in our theaters. They were given under permits issued by the mayor. The law is that permits may be given to organized athletic clubs to hold sparring contests.
 ''1n this case a number of promi- nent merchants, bankers and other leading business men petitioned me for this permit, for the purpose of liQuidating a deficit which had been incurred in giving a Saengerrest jul bilee in 1898. This permit 1 promised them about six weeks ago. There were a number of protests made against permitting the contest in Gin cinnati. I have stuck to my promise, which l believe to be thoroughly in ac- cordance with the law A number of attorneys in Cincinnati. however, have taken the opposite stand, claiming that the Saengerfest Athletic association is not duly organized athletic club. as defined by the law, and that the ath letic club was incorporated for the sole purpose of giving this contest
 That is, however. a technicality and it is something that I am unable to decide. There are many prece dents to support my position in the matter.
 You will understand that under tht law have only the right to give . permit for a sparring exhibition
