BY REY. DR. KNIGHT
Bishop of Cuba Breaches at Trinity Church on Good of
 U. s. Unselfishness.
PRELATE IS AN AMERICAN
Went from Atlanta to Island Four Years Ago. But Is Mistaken
 for Cuban.

Rev Dr. Knight, Episcopal bishop of Cuba. delivered the sermon yesterday morning In Trinity church, His topic was national and church selfishness
 Dr, Knight Is from Atlanta, Ga, and he has only been in Cuba four years as bishop having been a minister In the south before he was called there He tells an amusing story of mistakes that are frequently made as to his nation- allty as he is dark in complexion and has black hair, When a speaker al dinner, someone remarked, Why, he speaks without any accent"
 The text of the sermon was from St, Luke. It was And he stald then ye shall surely say unto me this proverb, physician heal thy self; whatsoever ye have heard done in Caparnium, do also here in our own country"
 This was to show the Jewish people the narrowness of their policies, and that they should do omething for somebody else. Nations recognized this in the past when they sought to divert tho attention of the people at home onto disturbances in some other coun- try and entered into foreign wars.
 "Our country entered into a foreign war. not for conquest not to divert at- tention from the many current pro- blems but purely for unselhsh motives, to help a people weaker and oppressed by tyranny This was an anatomy In history.
 Tt was O utof our war with Spain which we entered with, such altrulsm that we became a united people north and south From a provincial nation in habits and Ideas little regarded by the other nations of the earth, we came to be a great world power,
 There are still problems at home to be solved. The church should be nov ed to extend its kind offices to people needing light. and by unselflshness, the church will find its own problems car ried out in mysterious way"

HEBREW w DEMOCRATS
Meet to Hear Mayor Reilly, of Meriden, and Several Local
 Speakers.
SPEAKER CANNON SCORED
Declares That Rockefeller and Carnc- gie Grew Rich Under Republl-
 can Administration,

The Third and Fourth Ward He- brew Democratic clubs turned out in force to rally at the Hebrew insti- ute on George street last night to hear Mayor Thomas L. Reilly, Edwin s. Thomas and others speak on the coming election, The meeting was gotten together at very short notice, only a few knowing of it until last evening The speakers were notified the morning and afternoon before and the hall was engaged at few hours notice. In spite of the short time for preparation there was a crowd there that packed the auditor ium. They were very enthusiastic,
 Mayor Reilly spoke of the qualities and prominence of Hebrews In many spheres of life He then said, Tt was hardly worth while for many of you to leave the rule of the czar who has a right to rule by inheritance to come under the rule of another czar who has no right to rule except that given him by the republican party a man who is the Simon Legree' of congress and drives the house of representa- tives like slaves. He is Uncle Joe Cannon He censors such laws as he does not want to come before the house and they are never heard from again Even some from the president are throttled by the speaker"
 He then went on to speak of what he said was the miserable system of representation that Connecticut had. He declared that there was no reason why the United States senators from this state should not be elected by direct vote
 "Of course Rockefeller and Carne- gie are for Taft as it was a republican administration that allowed them to accumulate their vast wealth. There should be an income tax on all such to make them pay the part of the taxes that is their just due These things are what the democratic party will stand for and will enforce"
 Edwin S Thomas in his talk spoke of the saying so frequently used by Mir Bryan. Shall the people rule ?" This he said originated in the defni- ton of the word democratic, l. e. rule of the people. He then said that 1t was about time that the people did rule this country as 1t was coming to despotism largely like that of the countries from which the Jewish peo- pie had fed.
 Jacob Kopplemen of Hartford, in his talk said Colonel Pope of Hart ford in his talk on the political cam paGn in 1900, remarked that he would close up his factory if Bryan was elected as there would be trc- mendous panic in that event He re- peated this about Judge Parker in 1904 Under republican adminis-

MoURNs LOSS OF MIR. HAYNES.
Postors' Union Adopts Testimonial of
 Life and Work of Brother

llic ana NOTk or BfOlner,
 At the october meeting of the Pas tors union of New Haven a committee was appointed to prepare testimon- all to the life and work of the late Artemas Jean Haynes Accordingly the following resolutions were drawn up and have been adopted by the union.
 Whereas. In the mysterious proyi- dence of God, there has been removed from our midst our dear friend and brother, Artemas Jean Haynes, We, the members of the Pastors union of the city Of New Haven, desire to express the high esteem in which he was held among us. We knew him as one firm in his convictions and dar- Ing in his utterance yet tolerant and kindly in hls spirit toward all men.
 We recognize that in the life of our churches and Of our city he was a force for deep spirituality, for right eousness and for justice. and that In his death we have suffered an im- measurable loss.
 To his church and to his family We would bear expression of the deepest sympathy, and for them raise the prayer that they may have in their bereavement the ministrations of the divine spirit

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, July 4--Most
OF the oarsmen who compete in the
national regatta on the Connecticut
river course here. August II and Is, will
have. during regatta week. their first
opportunity Of viewing Springfield s
million dollar race course"
That amount is to be expended on the
regatta course alone IN connection with
the big river front project that the
Springfield committee IN charge OF the
regatta predicts will be within a few
years the scene Of the annual Yale
Harvard race.
The national regatta course Is fanked
by tracks and other property OF the
New York, New Haven and Hartford
railroad. and the removal of this
property IS part OF the scheme TO make
Springfield "a. city beautiful" Presi-
dent Mellen sets the figure that his
railroad company must get at a round
million. A commission is now In charge
Of the task Of working out the plans
for this bis Job. and It IS confidently
predicted that il will be a million dol
lar course in reality when Springfield Is
ready again 10 call for the regatta.
The committee is making big headway
in its efforts to get collegiate aquatic
authorities 10 see the wisdom OF shift
ing the Yale-Harvard race back q
Springfield, where it was held back in
1876, when the fOur-miIe races between
the Crimson and the Blue were inaug-
urated. A few years ago a movement
20 bring the races back TO Springfield
had taken considerable Roadway. wher
It was found that the New York, New
Haven and Hartford railroad would not
provide facilities for observation.

While in New London for the Yale

with Yale rowing experts the project
Of bringing the races to Springfield,

He has long fathered this plan and

Springfield Boat Club, is in charge OF
arrangements for the national regatta
The starting and finishing points OF the

Club, members Of which procured the
regatta for Springfield this season This
boat house is the rowing home OF Cham
pion Harry 5. Bennett and Of Alexan-

Warnock and Bennett are in fine

TO add 10 their laurels in the national

this week TO compete IN the doubles. OF
the Peoples regatta, and on their re-
turn will direct their energies toward

There Is naturally much regret here

Thomas Flyer Americas Sole Representative in the

Over seventy miles an hour for a
distance of nearly five hundred mi IS
Is tie killing pace that will nave TO be
maintained to equal the performance
OF the winner Of last YEARS. French
Grand Prix on the Dieppe course.
Forty-eight Europeanc cars have under
taken to attempt the stupendous task,
and America has come forth with one
champion in the Thomas Flyer, en-
tered by the +. r. Thomas Motor
Company and the Harry 5. Houpt Com
pany. Unlike the European flyers. the
American machine that Lewis Strang
has been engaged 10 drive Is stock

the exception Of a slight increase IN the

against specially built European racers
Harry S. Houpt believes that he will
give the best possible demonstration OF
the value OF his car for speed. RELIABLE
lily, and endurance.

For the present the Dieppe course is
vigorously closed TO ali racing cars.
Strang will thus be obliged TO make
whatever further tests are necessary

however, cannot be kept eff the course.
