ca. In his studies of the soul and
in his clear keen sight into charac-
ter he is almost an equal of Shakes
peare, Like that great writer he
studied people rather than books and
in his writings he shows his keen
understanding. He loved nature
and recognized the divine in it, and
= reverent spirit prevades his pro-
ductlons. In almost all his works
he presents some truth or moral,

trated by the story in which it is
woven. lie was ever trying to help
and upllft humanity, which he
thought was burdened with sin and

enters many of them. But he does
not take the standpoint of a harsh

rather that of sympathetic brother

And. too, the stranger admonished Mir. Ganci. not ''spend it all in one place."

BANK VS. BREWSTER

Various Ideas as to Value of Corn wall Farm.
 The trial of the foreclosure suit of the Falls Village Savings bank vs. George N. Brewster, of Cornwall, was begun in the superior court at Winsted Thursday afternoon. The mortgage is for $5,000 oD the farm of MT. Brewster on Cream Hill, Cornwall, says The Citizen. The mortgage was made May 4, 1886, and on Jan g, 1888, $S5 was paid on the princi- pal. There is now due on the note $4.- 915 principal and $271.35 interest.
 The first witness was J. Lee Ensign, assistant treasurer of the bank, who identified the note and mortgage and testified to the amount due, etc.
 Charles L. Gold, of Cornwall, whose farm adjoins the Brewster place, said the farm and buildings were run down. He estimated the farm to be worth $5, ,000 believing there were 150 to 900 acres. If there were 300 acres he thought 1t was worth $6,OOO.
 Selectman Frank H. Reed, of Falls Village, thought the farm was worth 5, 900 and said that 5000 ought to be laid out on it for repairs, etc.
 The plaintiff rested it's case with these witnesses. Upon a luther request of Attorney Scoville that he be allowed to bring witnesses later, the court contin- ued the case to this week ln spite of his former ruling that the case must go on.
 MT. Scoville said the farm was worth S1O,O00 and that there was an interest in the farm not covered by the mort UaQA.

Swiftly Running Water Held Deer a
 Prisoner at Falls Village.
 One day last week, after the heavy rains had raised the Housatonic river, large deer attempted to cross the stream near the iron bridge in Falls Village. The current carried the ami nal down stream until he came in con tact with a rock where he was firmly held despite his struggles. Anumber of Falls Village people became aware of the deer's predicament and went to his assistance. One of these citizens, by climbing out on tree which extended over the water, had nearly reached the animal when, in fright, it made a last vigorous effort to free itself and was successful after which it made its way, with much difficulty, to the opposite shore and disappeared in the woods.

ChoYn but petition to that effect, con tainlng the signatures of the towns people regardless of church affeliations, was presented to the superintendent. AS Mir. Chown is willing to remain it is not likely that the superintendent will offer objection. This will be MT. Chown' s fifth year as pastor of this church.
