Lyons at o'clock the detectives and
express messengers aboard noticed
three men with a large electric fish

they failed to obey. A second order was
effective and the prisoners We're shack

found.
The prisoners declined to say any
thing about themselves, beyond giving
names and saying that Buffalo was
their home. They also declined TO give
any information about their companion.

Leitch, Rev G. w. Wallace, the pas
tor, stated that the pride he felt in
his own church was no narrow secta-
rian feeling He said: Il do not forget
or discourage, or discredit any Chris
tan church which ministers to the
spiritual and moral needs of men. Let
me say especially, with reference to
that denomination a branch of which
it las been our glad privilege to CO.
operate With in the town of Monmouth,
IT'S history is repletc with the names
of Gods true noblemen. Its idols, it's
institutions, it's examples of sacrifice
and devotion have made q contribu-
ton to character and culture Which
command admiration. Any member of
the CONGREGATIONAL church looking in
to Lis UNCONVENTIONAL history must
find inspiration for the very highest
Christian service. Whoever eXalts that
donomna tiCn, crediting it with illus
trious names, grand institutions and
lofty ideals receives my heartiest en-
dorsamcnt.'
Mr.. Wallace then announced as the
speaker for Thursday evening Rev. }.

that moment one of the deacons came
down the aisle. and the minister
paused to hear what he had to say,
which was that the pastor had forgot
ten to give notice of meeting OF the
ladies' of the congregation.
Accordingly the divine gave the no.
tice, apologizing to the congregation
for his forgetfulness, and then again
announced the number OF the hymn.

liquor, amusing crowd of spectators
with the antics Of his trick dog. The

while and then said:

to train your dog that way? l can't
