The appellate court in passing on
the case yesterday, said that the only
important question which it had to ex-

islature had violated the constitution
in going beyond or contrary to the'law
in its prohibition or mandates. 1t held
that the legislature had not erred in
that particular. The court dismissed

The first point raised by o'Shea was
that the section provided cruel and un-
usual punishments for violations of the
law. This contention the court dis

WHAT THE CHURCHES
 CONTRIBUTE TO CIVIC LIFE,
Thoughtful Sermon at Trinity Episeo- pal Church by Rev. J. Eldred Brown.

Rev. J. Eldred Brown at Trinity Episcopal church Sunday morning spoke on What the Churches Con- tribute to Civic Life. his text being Psalm 127: 1, Except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain, and said:
 In the order of civilization the mo- ralities, graces and refinements of life came last. First and foremost came the brute instinct of self preservation. The original members of the human race were for a long period fully occu- pied in battling with the gigantic forces of primeval nature. Forests had to be felled. means of defense provided, both against savage beasts and against their fellow men who, in the fierce contest for existence. recognized no right but that of brute force. In those rude times and circumstances only the physically strongest could survive. Be- fore man could even feel free to en- joy bare subsistence a host of natural forces had to be opposed and brought under control All this made the ani- nal side of man predominant. The conditions of life tended towards the development of the stronger and more heroic qualities; they made man a fighter It is not surprising, therefore. to find these qualities uppermost far ages in color, tribe, nation and even e0lDlTe. MOI IS u lildl llit standards of the world should have been for ages physical prowess and brute strength, as displayed in the arena and in war. Moreover, men found it hard to overcome this brute inheritance and custom. They for ages could rise only to the external. side of refinement-its comforts and luxuries. And these. for lack of the internal vir- tues which alone can give them T ,fra afr,, fta And so this sort of civilization always degenerated and finally perished under the weight of its own vices. This was the case with all the ancient empires. including Rome.
 Life, as we know it, with its morali- ties, restraint, respect for law, it's sym pathies, generosities and refinements, is the creation of Christianity. It is the natural resultant of the conviction that slavery is a hideous sin. that wars of conquest are degrading, that woman is on a par with man as regards her native rights, and his superior as re- gards the gentler and more humane qualities; that man has, over and above his animal nature. an immortal soul; that material possessions are all tenn poral and perishable; that the truly heroic qualities are neither physical nor mental but moral and spiritual; that the refinements and graces that truly ennoble life are not it's comforts and luxuries, but its moralities, sacri- fees, generosities and charities, which make life honest. clean. just, peaceful and loving. And these are the quail ties in life for which the churches stand, and which they are ever seeking to practice and preach. When we look over the list of institutions which make a city a good and desirable place to live in we find that there is no one of them which is not in direct need of re- ligion to strengthen and develop it.

and painting were forthcoming. On May l. 1893, Charles A Bidwell began his labors. which continued to July 31, 1895. The first Sunday in January, 1896, Rev. Marion Crosley became pas tor which relation existed until Octo- Der l., 1898.
 On September l. 1899. the. present pastorate began. On December 23, 1900, our church was the recipient of a beautiful individual communism ser vice, the gift of M. M Whittemore, in memory of his wife, who passed away in January of that year, and in 1901 he presented the church the beautiful silver collection plates which have been used ever since
 One of the memorable events has been the removal of the debt, which unfortunately began with the remodel ling of the church and had accumulat- ed until 1t reached the sum of $2,100. This was paid in full by August l, 1904.
 There are at present 204 church members of whom 12S live in town and S1 elsewhere Sixty-two have united with the church. 16 of these having united June 18th of this year, and 47 children have been baptized during this pastorate.
 Oldest Living Member.
 Mrs. Catherine Hampstead has been a member of the church longer than any other living member Of the Fl former pastors of this church only four are now living, Rev S. G. Davis of Macedon, N. r., Rev. Marion Crosley of Indiana, and Rev. Charles Bidwell, who entered the Congre gational fel- lowship after leaving Norwich, and MT. L. P. Blackford of Boston.

(Continued from Page Two.)

(Continued from Page Two.) towns are named after places in Eng land: Norwich. New London, Colches- ter, Preston, Andover, Bolton, Coventry, Mansfield Stafford Wilmington, Ash ford, Canterbury, Hampton, Woodstock, Enfield, East Windsor, Manchester, Glastonbury, Marlborough, Portland, Chatham.
 And if We looked further afield through the country at large we would find the same thing true; thousands of places in the United States bear sec ond-hand names borrowed from Eng land.
 Our land indeed is a New England. England is the great mother country of America./ A Yankee is an English man after all, for the Indians tried to say English" when the white men came, and the nearest they could get to it was Yankee" So the word Yam kee is an Indian corruption of the word English. And the land of America is first cousin to the land of Eng land.
 The United States always has been and always will be predominately Eng fish in language. in government, in civ ilization and in character. The red rose is the national flower of old Eng land. And our city of Norwich is the Rose of New England.
 III. Bible Names. There are many places in the neighborhood that bear Bible names. For example, g. few miles north and west of Norwich we find Lebanon and Goshen and Salem, Boz rah and Hebron and Gilead-all Bible names.
 And if we looked further afield we would find enough Bible names in our country to make us think it was New Palestine.
 But Bf6le names were given to peo- pie even more than to places I made a careful study of the tombstones in the old Norwich Town cemetery, and I found all these curious names: Zabdiel, Abiel, Ezekiel, Jabez. Jerusha, Heze- kiah, Zerviah, Asa, Bella, Phila, Jedi diah, Azariah, Zephaniah, Eliphalet, Ebenezer, Epaphras, Eleazer, Phineas, Zilpah.
 Then, too, I found that many of the ladies in those old days bore names of Christian virtues. For example. found in the Norwich Town cemetery: Patience, Prudence, Consider, Mercy, Thankful, Wealthy. Civil, Desire, Patia, Temperance.
 These names seem barbarous to us, but they seemed beautiful to them. For they were all Bible names. People loved their Bible in those days They searched the scriptures diligently. They delighted in Gods Holy Word. They were Pilgrims. And so they delighted to name their children after the names of Gods people of old.
 It is a glory and a boast for our country that it's founders were a re- ligious. Christian, God-fearing people. And If America is the best of lands today it is in large measure due to the fact that it was founded and estab- l1Shed by a pious folk
 May our country prize and cherish the precious heritage of religion be- queathed to. us by our Pilgrim fore fathers.

 Foremost among these institutions, be- cause at their base, is the home. How much the character of a city depends on the character, teaching and example of it's homest What Is more essential to the good name and prosperity of a city than homes which have at their head honest. temperate, w-abiding, God-fearing fathers. and pure, devoted. unselfish. home-loving mothers? The home that is the opposite of these is a breeder of corruption and criminality,
 ,fashioner of the stuff out of which comes the pauper, the degenerate, the vicious Now the churches are the homes best friend. Whatever virtues and moralities are taught fin good
 home are confirmed and extended by the churches. We can never realize
 how much the churches mean to the
 home. directly and indirectly. until we imagine our children obliged, while still infants. to live and grow up In a
 heather community. The creation of a community conscience, or environment,
 which is the work of Christianity, di- rectly aids a good home and helps to correct the influence of the bad home. The school Is another institution essen tial to the attractiveness and worth of
 city. But the school trains chiefly the mind. Learning is essential to f1t and train the child for life: but learn
 ing. without character, is danger and
 menace. It is the work of the churches to moralize learning. to con- vert 1t into wisdom. to make us realize it's subordination to duty and charac- ter There is no greaterfriend of the
 school than the church. which teaches
 us to consecrate our learning to prin-
 ciple and service.
 So again it is essential to a city that it should be well governed. Its mayor and council should have knowledge of
 the city's needs and ability to meet it's
 problems. Its police force should be adequate. Its courts should exercise even justice. Its lawyers should be well learned in the law But we may
 have all this and be poorly governed. because our officers and legal guardians
 are devoid of character and given over
 to the desire for graft" In a word.
 back of everything that concerns the
 government of a city is the absolute
 need of character. of moral principle and backbone. This is what religion
 and the churches are endeavoring to contribute to the government of a city. They aim to produce the kind of men
 that will govern wisely and honestly,
 and they aim to develop a community
 conscience that will seek such men for civic office. And. finally, the welfare
 of a city depends much on it's charita- ble and philanthropic enterprises-its care for its poor. unfortunate and sick. New the Christian religion insists on the law of love. It is the spirit of

Hospital Trims Lebanon.

Unable to solve Zemke's delivery when hits meant runs, Lebanon went down to defeat at the hands of the fast hospital team Saturday. Both teams played rather loose ball at times, Hospital making six errors against eight for Lebanon, the latter team making fukes at critical stages. while the errors made by Hospital were not costly. The visitors proved to be gentlemanly set and while the score does not credit them with play ing very strong game, it was the general opinion that they are capable of playing faster ball, /and anothtr game has been arranged for the 24th of July. Hospitals next game is on Wednesday next, when the c. A. C.'s of Norwich tackle them on the Hos pital grounds.
