Has Three Trustees


'In answer to questions about her af-
fairs, she said that she had put her
property into the hands of three trus-
tees, Henry M. Baker, Archibald McLel-
Ian and Mr.. Fernald of Concord; that it
was chiefly in bonds, but that she had
other property, and that she did this be-
cause it was in confoi nifty with her faith
and that no man could serve two mas
ters God and Mammon. She said that
she would do this to see that her money
would eventually go where she wanted it
to 60 that is. to the church she had
established. She stated that she had
taken care of her son, built him house
and furnished it from top to bottom and
had done everything for him; that in
February last she had put money in trust
for him. that he had not paid his insur-
ance nor his poll tax nor his other taxes,
and that she felt he was running in
debt and that she had made a trust Of
$125, 900 and had put it into the hands of
that honest man (pointing to Mr.. Street

fact that many years before, when her

IN these lessons, he never allowed him
sell to remain alone with his prisoner.
1t was evident that in his cooler mo-
ments the governor had instructed the
jailer and his assistant to keep ever at
the heels Of the prince and always on
the alert. Two huge revolvers were
thrust underneath the belt Of the jail
er, and the lantern holder was simi-
larry armed. Lermontoff was pleased
with this, for If the governor had
trusted him entirely. even though he
demanded no verbal parole, 1t would
have gone against his grain to strike
down the chief, as be ruthlessly intend
ed to do when the time was ripe for it,
and In any case, he told himself, no
matter how friendly the governor
might be, he had the misfortune to
stand between his prisoner and liberty.
Lermontof was again taken from his
cell about half an hour before the time
he had named for the completion Of
the charging, and, although the gov
ernor said nothing Of his intention, the
jailer and his nan brought to the cell
six charged batteries, a coil of wire
and a dozen lamps. Lermontoff now
changed his working methods. He be-
gan each night as soon as he had
finished dinner and worked till nearly
morning, sleeping all day except when
interrupted by the jailer. Jack, follow
ing the example Of Robinson Crusoe,
attempted to tie knots on the tail Of
time by cutting notches with his knife
on the leg Of the table, but most days
he forgot to perform this operation,
and so his wooden almanac fell hope
lessly out of gear. He estimated that
he had been a little more than a week

he said, and so turned out the electric
light at the end Of the long, flexible
wire. he had arranged a neat little
switch Of the accumulation, and so
snapped the light on and off at his
pleasure without the trouble Of un-

Going to the edge of the stream and
lighting his candle, he placed the glass

bulb to run the risk Of being smashed
against the iron bars Of the passage,
but the little globe negotiated the rap
ids without even a perceptible clink
and came to rest in the bed of the
torrent somewhere about the center Of

leaned into the upper tunnel and lis

days." but as this statement was made
in Russian it conveyed no more mean

There was no reply, and Jack be-
came alarmed at the continued still

ter:
"Ill be seeing visions by and by. I
thought my brain was stronger than it
is-could have sworn that was Jacks

Jack got speedily and quietly down,
turned on the switch and hoped upon
the table again, peering through. He
knew that the stream had now become

An actual experience must be had with Christian truth as a power becoming the larger itself in con- sciousness and enlarging the moral and spiritual powers of the soul The | sermon was illustrated by a consider l ation of the manner in which the apos- tie Peter grew in Christian character | and power as seen in the "reminiscences in which he deals in his letters.

 The Derby high school football eleven whitewashed the eleven repre- senting the Danbury high school on the meadows Saturday afternoon be- fore large gathering of football en- thusiasts. The final score was: Der by high, 49; Danbury high, 0. The Derby eleven besides outweighing the Danbury team were more experienced in the game than their opponents. When a forward pass was played large gains and two touchdowns being made by using this play, the Danbury- fans did not seem to know what to make up the play Blankfield, the heavy Derby fullback, could plunge through the Danbury line, it was so light, for gains of five or ten yards at each play. The ones who made the touchdowns were Gager, Blankfleld, Keefe and Ring, Gager made three touchdowns on long end runs, evading all the Danbury tacklGs, and at each time running over forty yards Molloy and McMahon also played star games, and were in their usually good form. The only two on the opposing side who seemed to know very much about the game were Walsh, the fullback, and Hobson, the quarterback. Bliss Gordy, Yale Il, acted as referee, and Cyrus Brewster, as timekeeper.
