CREW NOT GUILTY.
Exonerated in Trial for Wreck Costing
 Many Lives.

Washington Dec 23.---A verdict of not guilty was returned by the jury to night in the case of Engineer Hilde- brand, Conductor Hoffmeyer, Fireman Mcclellan and Brakeman Rudder, the train crew who were indicted for man. slaughter following the train wreck at Terra Gotta, D, C., on the B. & o. rail- road December 30, 1906, in which for ty-three persons were killed and up- ward of three score injured The trial had been in progress for three weeks, and the verdict was reached after four hours deliberation.
 The defense offered on behalf of the men was that they had received a
 double green signal at silver Springs, a station about nine miles out of Wash- ington, and that this indicated to hem that the station at Takoma Park, which was closed every night at 6:30 o'clock was dead and therefore they were not required to use Q signal there. Under the rules of the road, the block which up to 6:S0 o'clock extended from Silver Springs to Takoma, was eHtend- ed at that hour to University station, the first station out of Washington. 4 was tine contention of the government that the equipment train, in charge of the accused men, reached Silver Springs at 6;2S o'clock, but the men ail testified that they reached there at 6.31. one minute after the hour for ex- tending the block. Railway brother hoods. of which the accused were mem- bers. took charge of their defense.

 Worth $4,000.
FOURTH ALREADY RAISED
Balance Will be Obtained by Popular Subscription and by Proceeds
 of Annual Ball.

That the people of Savin Rock shall have a fire company second to none in the state and to go with the fire com pany apparatus such as is seldom seen in settlement the size of the Rock is manifestly the intention of the mem- bers of the shore company who expect before summer to have an electric 1, chemical truck worth $4OOO.
 , About $1OOO of this is already raised Ind the members of the company ex- pect to raise more than thls sum again { by popular subscription among the peo- pie of the Rock. who wish the settle ment properly protected from fire.
 From the town of West Haven the hose company expects the regular ap- propriation of $150 and will not try to get special appropriation for the truck
 The annual ball of the hose company will be held February 19 at the West Haven town hall and from this the company expects to raise a considera- ble sum. The ball will be a full dress affair.

ASKS GROCERY ORDERS.
Suggestion for Assisting Poor Through
 City Mission.

City Mission.
 A way of helping others and of also being helpful to the City Missionary association in it's endeavors to prevent or relieve the pressure that always comes upon the poorer people in the winter weather, is to include with your Christmas or New Years orders to your grocer or marketman an order for $1 or $2 per month for one, two or three of the coming winter months, which is sent to the Rev. MT. Moss man, the general superintendent. will be placed to the credit of the City Mission at these stores and drawn up on only as may be needed in cases of emergency, but not otherwise, Those who did this last year at the Christmas or New Years season were thereby very helpful during the win ter to those who otherwise might have suffered.
 Friends in the near country places East Haven, North Haven, Orange Woodbridge, can accomplish the same result by sending at any time to tht silty. Mission store room at POI Orange ! street, supplies of vegetables, fruit etc, from the farm, as has already been done by some in previous win ters

AGAINST THE NEGRO.
Outrages Continue With Purpose of
 Destroying Secret Societies.

Albany, Ga, Dec. 2s-Advices from Kestler, on the Georgia, Florida & Ala bama railway, where a negro secret society hall was dynamlted several weeks ago, say that the outrages are being repeated, two secret society halls in the country near Kestler having teen dynamitsd Friday night. One of the buildings was the Odd Fellows hall st Corea, five miles south of Kestler and the other Supreme Myrtle meeting place at Salem Church.
 It appears q campaign of destruction is being waged against negro secret societies whose halls to the number of [ at least five have been demolished within the last month. tAs the result of the dynamiting of so many lodge rooms, there is reign of terror among | the negroes in the vicinity of Kestler. It Is believed the whites are dynanit- 1 ing the halls on account of the difficult ty in securing labor, the labor troubles
 being blamed on the secret orders.

With all the precautions which have been taken to make the Bennett Me morial foutain practical as well as an artistic success it still is. difficult if not dangerous to try to get a drink from the public provider, This is more so at night than curing the day time.
