sermon was one which every one can
apply to his own life with the absolute
certainty that 1t is positively necessary
If he desires to serve God, and be a
good christian He said for one thing,
no matter how we'll men think of us
the man who Is closeted with himself
and found guilty by his own conscience,
and the conscience must accuse, knows
that he has been weighed in the bal
ance and found wanting. Another thing
was very forcibly brought to notice,
that the conscience that would pre-
serve its sweetness and purity must be
an active conscience.
Young peoples meeting was held al
$50 and at 1880 Rev VIM. McNicholl
of Naugatuck, had charge of the meet
ing and preached the sermon. His
sermons are always very much enjoyed
and the subjects we'll chosen.
At children's hour tomorrow which
will be changed to 9 o'clock, the sub
ject will be the "Guide-book, and the
STORY of the Bible.''
AT 10000 Rev. T.. A. Dent Of Hartford
will give the first of his series of adj
dresses on Prayer" using as found
alton for his talks, 1.-THE Lords Prayer. -
To-morrow's subject will be "Our ia

At one O'Clock tomorrow the an
nual meeting of the Methodist camp
meeting association will be held for
the election Of officers and whatever
other business may come UP.

Rev. L. M. Lounsbury will have charge
of the service and will preach the even

Bishop D. A. Goodsell of Brookline,
Mass, will preach on Thursday and ii
is expected the attendance will be lar
ger than at any meeting thus far. The
number Of people coming to the camp
meeting increases every day and if the
weather hold good it gives promise of
being one of the most successful we've
held.
A regular attendant at each meeting
is the Rev Isaac Sanford of Middle
field, who is 80 years old. Mr. Sanford
is an old camp meeting preacher and
has attended the services every season

In Crab Net-New Way a Success.
There are different ways of catching
a woodchuck, but it is likely that a
party of New Londoners devised the
most unique way at Mumford's Cove
on Sunday. Mercenus e. Williams had
the party out In his sailboat and sew
eral of them were in a skiff padding
along the shores Of the cove with nets,
looking for crabs. The attention of
one of the party was attracted to a
small animal swimming in the water
just ahead Of the boat and. pushing
the boat along little faster, the ami
NAL was overtaken. 1t was a wood
chuck. The crab net was used as a
scoop and Mr.. Woodchuck was landed
In the boat, where he was grabbed by
the scruff Of the neck and showed into
an eel pot The animal was taken t.
Mr.. williams home and viii be donlef
ticated.

The office of the trolley express in
the headquarters building on Chapel

headquarters building of the New Ha-
ven road on Meadow street, and Mr..
Leary who is now in charge having
succeeded Mr.. Pease, is in the office
with General Traffic Manager A. B.
Smith, room 124.
The reason for transferring the troll

Smith in his official capacity of general
traffic manager of the Connecticut
company, is the logical head Of the
trolley express and his was the idea of
changing the headquarters of the ex-
press company. The old room of the
trolley express company is at present
vacant, further plans for the avail

ANDREW ross RESIGNS.
omciaI in Charge of Union Station
Leaves Service Here.

Andrew Ross, assistant superinten-
dent of the New York division of the
New Haven road, who has his head
quarters in this city, and is in charge
of Union station and the rest of the
terminal here, has resigned. Queries
submitted to the railroad officials met
with no denial of the reports, and it
is accepted as a fact among railroad
operators generally
Mr.. Ross, who has lived on Fourth
street for some time past, came to
New Haven as assistant superintend-
emit of the New York division about
two years ago, and was the first man
to take charge of the New Haven ter
minal under that title. There have
been frequent changes in this Office in
the past FIVE years. Many reasons are
given by railroad men for the retire
ment of Mr.. Ross, One report says
that it has something to do with the
sudden withdrawal Of Robert Black
all, formerly night yardmaster at Wa
ter street.

and his assistant, DR.. Leroy Cheney,
yesterday morning set free on East

up after a chase on the middle break
water by Capt. Charles Harrison of the
oyster steamer Mikado. Monday.
From DIR Kelley's, the buck was car
rled to East Rock park in an express
wagon. Its legs were bound so that
he could not get away. AT the deer
run, so called on English drive, the
buck was unloaded from the wagon
and released from It's bounds. As soon
as it was given its freedom the buck
was off like a shot over a path
through the woods and was soon out
of sight. 1t went in the direction of
the North Haven meadows.

In this connection it Is in order
to say that nothing advertiscs a
