EASTER SERVICE.

An audience to the full capacity of
Owen Church was assembled Sunday
and from the many encomiums we
heard every body was pleased and sat
isfied. The singing by the choir was
nice. Mr.. w. R. Thomas, Superinten-
dent Of Sunday school, spoke pertinent
ly as to the aim and object of the festi-
val and the lesson to be drawn from it.
''The sermons of the Bells" was intelli-
gently rendered by Frank Deakins,
Neal Cunningham, David Brown and
Jimmie Houts. 1.-THE natural ques-
ton, why we have Easter" PROFOUND
ed by Harvey Smith was answered by
other boys. A song by nine girls prov
ed to be by twelve, and was quite eff
fective. "The Rainbow Of Hope" was
clearly the leading number OF the pro-
gram, and those who took part did
themselves credit by careful and dis
tinct rendition. Clarence Martin did
very we'll with "Granny's Grace" Ju-
liette Hopkins recited quite we'll, and
Hannah Lofty, though not on the pro-
gram, gave recitation carefully as she
always does. Rev, David McCracken
the pastor, then made short address
on the inspiration to be drawn from the
great festival, and he was followed by
Maj 7, Il. Hill, who gave some historic
data.
The program was carried out without
a hitch under the direction of Miss NJ
B. Gustafson, who presided at the organ
and who was warmly congratulated af-
ter the close on the beautiful service
arranged by her.

GRACE HOSPITAL SOCIETY.

Increased and Better Accommod atfons
 for Nurses Required.
 The Grace Hospital society, in conse- quence of the increasing number of pa tients which is now taxing the hospital facilities to their utmost has found it necessary to provide better and more suitable accommoda for the nurses. The society has therefore purchased a house at the corner of Chapel and Beers streets, which seems we'll adapted for the purpose. Much furniture will be needed for the new nurses home and it devolves upon the women's board to supply this.
 The public have always been so gene rous in aiding Grace hospital that the women's board take the liberty of nak- ing public appeal, feeling that there are many who will gladly give if they know just what is needed. Following is list of the necessary articles: Chif- foniers, bureaus. one parlor table, small tables and rugs for bedrooms, straight chairs and small rockers, portieres for one door, shades for windows on the front and on one side. comfortables for single beds, one small writing table and mating for three rooms. Donations may be sent to Grace hospital not later than Friday, October 2s or they will be called for if the hospital os notified be- fore the above date.
 Gifts of money to be used in purchas- ing any of these articles will be most gladly received by the president, Mrs. E. S Gaylord, 65 Trumbull street, or by the treasurer, Mrs. E. J. Walker, 1136 Chapel street.

Fruits That Delight the Eye and Tempt
 the Appetite. }.
 At the Mirror store, S56 Chapel street, the display of choice fruit is certainly most attractive. Nothing to equal it has ever been seen in this city, and visitors are emphatic in their appreci- ation of the splendid varieties which are found there. Conspicuous among the many kinds are the following. Ap- pies--Pound Sweets, Snow, Holland Pippins, Greetings; pears-Buerre Bose, Winter Nelis, Seckels; grapes 4Concords, Malagas, California Tokays, etc; pineapples, very choice; grape fruit, sweet oranges, new figs and dates, etc. Judson has also an extra fine se- lection of olives and sardines; also a new lot of fancy baskets, which he will fl with choice fruit.
 It is impossible to adequately de- scribe the good things at the Mirror store, but now is the accepted time,'' when the fruits of the harvest can be viewed there in all of their beauty and attractiveness, and by visiting that famed establishment you will be charmed with the result and know for certainty that "John B.'s' establish ment is truly headquarters for choice fr11if

New Shop to Employ Fifty or More
 Men to be Established.
 Plainyille, Oct. 16-Articles of incor- poration were filed with the secretary of state to-day, for new company, to manufacture brass and metal goods, in connection with such parts of the busi- ness of Clark & Cowles as may prove profitable, and the business will occupy the Clark & Cowies shop off Broad street. The organization was completed Thursday, and the incorporators are all well known Plainyille men who are en- gagged in manufacturing at present. They are Edwin Hills, A. H. Condell, John B. Minor, c. H. Color and D. G. Clark, with A. H. Condell as secretary, treasurer and general manager.
 The new corporation will take over a business that is already we'll estab- lished in another city, and which em- ploys forty hands. As there are parts of the Clark & Cowles business of which MT. Condell is receiver, that are worth keeping up, there will. in all probability be seventy-five men work ing in the shop in very short time. The capital stock of the new company is $10,000, and it will be known as the Elm City Brass and Rivet company The Osborne Stevenson company and the Trumbull Electric company, both new concerns, are prospering and growing fast, and it looks as though Plainvilles industrial future was bright.

The New Haven branch, under whose auspices the meeting in Plymouth church is to be held, embraces the soci- cities of the Congregational churches of Litchfield, Fairfield, Middlesex and New Haven counties.
 For the coming meeting it is expected that about two hundred and fifty regu- larly accredited delegates will come from out of town, and fully as many other visitors, not delegates Tuesday, November 3, will be delegates day, when the sessions will be of business character and not open to the public. Wednesday and Thursday, November and will be public days.
 It is greatly to be regretted that. the proposed kirness for the benefit of the Mothers Aid society falls within the same week; but as the kirmess Is to continue after the close of the annual meeting of the Womans Board of Ms sions there should be no difficulty in the way of attendance upon both.

Captain William B. Peass.

In a cablegram received yesterday by Salmon G. Pease of the firm of Pease- Lewis O.. this city, was conveyed the intelligence of the death of Mir. Pease's brother. Captain William B. Pease. U. s. A., retired. at his home in Samabor, Austria.
 Deceased was a native of New Haven and received Q fine schooling in the common schools and also private ones of the city. At the time of the outbreak Of the civil war he evidenced his patri- otism and spirit by becoming member O. the 18th .. ", which was organized principally of men from New Haven. He was transferred from that regiment to the regular army and made lieuten- ant. For various deeds of valor and sol- dierly conduct he was raised to the rank of captian and served at many stations in the west up to about fifteen years ago when he was retired. - /
 Captain Pease at that time was the father of family, wife and two daugh- ters, and with desire to give his chil- dren many advantages in education he moved to Germany and lived at Heidel- berg for several years, later moving to his late home in Samabor, Austria.
 Captain Pease was a man of many noble traits and of sterling worth and possessed of the kindly spirit which wins and maintains friends in every walk of life. He is survived by the fam fly above mentioned and also by one sister, Miss Mary H. Pease of New Ha- ven. and a brother, Salmon G. Pease.

 Benedict of this city, with other pron1i- lnent laymen, is member of this body. Under it's leadership and inspiration az
 gressive work is being carried on or planned in very many of the churches.
