By an act of the utmost cruelty, per- formed by man of whose identity there is not the slightest trace, Hugh McComb of 92 Fourth street lost a val uable Holstein COW about o'clock Fri day morning In manner so peculiarly brutal that indignation was aroused throughout Greeneville and the city, where the news quickly spread.
 When at 4.30 Friday morning MT. McComb went to the barn of the She tucket company off Prospect street he found one of his two cows lying dead and the other with her hind legs tied and stretched out behind her An ex- animation showed that an iron poker with hook on the end had been thrust into the COW and the entrails drawn forth. The poker, which was three feet long, had evidently been pushed in to the end, and later examination show ed that the kidneys had been torn and other internal organs injured, causing considerable bleeding. The COW must have suffered great pain, but any noise was prevented by thoroughly wrapping her head in bags, which was also done with the other COW.
 Mir. McComb, after an examination, informed Policeman Allen c. Matthews, who notified Chief Murphy, but a care- ful search by the police and Mir Me- Comb failed to reveal single clue to the perpetrator of the outrage. Every effort, however, will be made to ferret out the guilty man or men. Deputy Sheriff Draper was also notified of the affair.
 The animal was removed to Preston and the investigation made of the in- ternal injuries.
 The other COW showed no marks of violence. bat probably from fear she refused to eat or drink all day Friday and seemed in bad shape.
 MT. McComb purchased the COW killed from Charles B. Chapman ten weeks ago for $65 and she gave eight quarts and a half of milk. MT. Mc- Comb who has a small milk route, mixed the animals as usual Thursday night and then went home, leaving the stable unlocked, as years ago, he said, when a barn burned, he was able to save all his cows when others who kept their doors locked lost their livestock He received a sad surprise Friday morning
 MT. McComb has no enemies, he says as far as he knows. and could think of no one who would do such dastardly deed. He has found tramps asleep in the barn mornings and last week a man asked him for the time, but went off before MT. McComb could learn who he was.

Members of the state commission named to establish a colony for epilep- ties visited Norwich on Thursday at the invitation of the Board of Trade, Senator Higgins of South Coventry, chairman, and Dr. Mailhouse of New Haven being present. This colony will be for the care and treatment of epi- leptic patients from the entire state.
 The commissioners arrived at noon and were met by Secretary H. w. Tib- bits of the board. and after a lunch they were taken in an auto and shown several sites about Norwich which are considered desirable for such a pur- pose. The gentlemen left in the even ing and expressed themselves as much pleased with the attention given them while in Norwich and with the sites shown them. The legislature appropri- ated the sum of s25, 1000 for the estab-' lishment of this colony and Senator Higgins, chairman of the committee. is brother of Dr. H. F. Higgins of this city.

CAPTAIN HAGBERG
 WON THE SHOOT.
Six of the Best Shots in the Third Go. Had Friendly Contest With the Kew Target.

At the ar1nory on Thursday evening six Of the best shots of the company went to the rifle range for a contest, in hopes of securing the prize offered Captain J. A. Hagberg was the high man with a score of 92, the new target for the prone position being used, which adds to the difficulty of making a high score. For second place Lieut.. Cole man and Private Mason were tied at SS. It is these three men, with Sergt. Denison, who will form the first class in the company shoot this winter, and they must make a score of 95 to secure the magazine subscription.
 In the second class the remaining five experts of the company will be placed, and their mark will be 91, while in the third class ST will be the points A to be secured In the other classes the number has not been fixed.
 Less Clerical Work.
 An order of much importance to the company clerks and adjutants has been issued by Adjutant General Cole re- garding the reduction of the clerical work which lessens the work inasmuch as there are new and less number of forms to fill out. The order reads:

and extensive area of tillable land, was thought much of. the commissioners going in and looking the house over.
 It had been reported that the farm had been purchased by the state, but that is not so, but with the commits sioners on Thursday was Winslow T. Williams, the owner of the farm, which attracts attention to the passersby be- cause of it's well cared for appearance and large fields, as well a. pasturing one of the largest fiocks of sheep in this vicinity, and at that time they expressed them selves as being well pleased with the place and the location. At first pres entation of the plan to him some time ago MT Williams was opposed to sell ing, but since then it is understood he has said he would sell the farm for such use.
 The commissioners also visited a place in Franklin which is available for such use, but they were not very favorably impressed. Other localities in the state are looking for this insti- tuition so that no decision will be reached by the commission for some time.

SECRET WORKER. The Plan Upon Which Coffee Operates.

Coffee is such a secret worker that it is not suspected as the cause of sickness or disease, but there is a very sure way to find out the truth.
 A lady in Memphis gives an interest ing experience her husband had with coffee It seems that he had been us- ing it for some time and was an in valid.
 The physician in charge shrewdly at the root of the tree" and ordered it discontinued with instructions to use Postum regularly in it's place.
 The wife says: We found that was the true remedy for his stomach and art-trouble and we would have glad ly paid & hundred times the amount of the doctors charge when we found how wise his judgment was.
 "'The use of Postum instead of cof- fee was begun about year ago, and 1t has made my husband strong, well man. He has gained thirty-f1ve pounds in that time and his stomach and heart trouble have all disappeared.
 "rhe first time I prepared 1t l did not boil it long enough and he said there was something wrong with it. Sure enough it did taste very fiat. but the next morning I followed directions carefully, boiling 1t for fifteen minutes and he remarked this is better than any of the old coffee
 I've use Postum regularly and never tire of telling our friends of the bene- fit we have received from leaving off coffee"

 The union chorus choir was seated on the platform and in the galleries. The songs were sung under the direc- ton of George A. Turner. and added much to the inspiration of the meet ing. H. L. Warrington was organist.
 Next Weeks Meeting.
 After the singing, Rev. Jerome Greer offered prayer. Rev.

to be erected that win hold over 1000 people. The scripture reading was by Rev MT. Worcester. A duet by George A. Turner and James l.. Case. Tried in Vain, preceded the sermon by Dr. M. s. Kaufman.
 Sermon by Rev. pr. Kaufman.
 He said: We are here on the Kings business. Christian people have been Quickened and a great number brought to Christ This brings a, new respon- sibility. Preaching has been done, and splendidly. His text was Mathew g27: 22, What shall I do then with Jesus, which is called Christ? He gave a pie ture of Christ at the Lords supper. then in the garden of Gethsenlane, and his coming out from the garden, his ar rest and the six trials. Dr. Kaufman spoke of himself going down the mar row streets of Jerusalem, then out to the garden of Gethsemane, and how the last scenes in Christ's life came back. Pilate, perplexed. disturbed and in despair, gave this answer: Let him be crucified. Is any one here say ing the same? Here is Christ being abused as much now as then. Do your duty. If Christ is an imposter. vote against him. If he is all that he claims to be, rally to his standard. If you reject him, are you not indorsing his crucifxion? Every one here tonight must decide the question, What shall do with Jesus? It may be your final decision. Pilates decision cosild not be reversed? What did Christ's friends say? He is the Lamb of God. Thou art the Christ, my Lord and nay God What did his enemies say? He ate with sin ners. He was blasphemous. l believe that Christ meant to make the impress sion that he was equal with God Un- to you is born a Saviour. God said: This is my beloved Son. Hear ye him. Here are a few of the testimonies of prophets, apostles, angels and God himself. Christ was testified to by the most reliable witness in all the uni-1 verse of God. The unavoidable Christ. one must either reject or accept him., We should appreciate the saving from eternal ruin made by Christ's life and death. He took my place. Jesus did take your place and mine. Tonight l will take Jesus from this time as my everlasting friend. O, accept him, live his life and find wonderful satisfac- tion.
 Rev. F. c. Wright conducted the after service. He said: What shall We do? Two hundred and fifty years ago men and women gath cred here to ask this question, and the resting place wonder answers that question. will enthrone Jesus in my life. When there is no help and no vision, and all Is dark. pray.
 The service closed with singing by the choir and the benediction.
