The news that an injunction
had been taken out, enjoining
the Commissioners from hold
ing an election of the tax pay
ers of the Second Ward of
this Parish, spread on the
streets of this town like wild
fire; ten minutes after in the
midst of an unprecedented
down pour of rain the citizens
OF this town assembled at the
City Hall and filled it to the
doors; some few wanted to
call the people out by sound
ing the fire alarm, but this was
not done and in a minutes at
ter the citizens began to fill
the hall, carrying with them
dripping umbrellas and rain
coats.
The meeting was called to
order by Mr.. James J. Martin,
President of the Progressive
League, who in a spirited adj
dress stated the already known
object of the meeting and de-
nounced in strong terms the
one or two residents of this
town, and the few outsiders
who are trying to balk the

call for skill and sacrifice is as insistent

UNITARIAN CHURCH.
Sharing of Glorious Memories Makes
Us II Nation. Says DR.. Crothcrs

The Champlain memorial service 1T

sermon by the Rev. :. NJ. Crothers, D. u,
Of the Fret parish, Cambridge. MISS.
was preceded ~ one of the best programs
If sacred music ever rendered at a church
long since famous for the excellence Of
its choir. The regular quartette was
assisted by L. c. Grffths of Barre,
tenor, and John c. Brownell, baritone,
string quartette from Watorman's or
chestra providing a pleasing addition to
the instrumental portion of the program.
Mr. GrTiths's rendition of the solo part
Of Gounod's "IIoly, Holy. Holy Lord
God" was particularly effective and his
powerful high tenor was again heard to
good advantage in Gounod's Excelsior"
The pulpit was drapcd with the flag. an
other hung on tho wall AT the rear ana
the front OF the galleries was covered
with bunting.
"Remcmber the days Of old consider the
years of many generations; ask thy
father. and he will show thee thy elders
and they will tell thee. Duet. 32,7. This
was the passage quoted by DR.. Crothers
as the subject of his discourse,
A man who has lost his memory has
lost his identity. said the speaker. The

We areoto celebrate tho memories Of three

Of church and state. The speaker said
that the entire separation Of church and
state is one of the distinctive features
of our national lifc Such nm idea was
almost Uncomfortable IN European coun-
tries when tho immigrants established It

question was whether the emperor should

hitherto remained a secret. AS the

SIXTY MINERS ENToMBED,
BRITISH COLUMBIA HORROR
Explosion Due to Fire pamp-Eiaht
Bodies Recovered.

Victoria, B. c., Oct. 5.@Thirty mi
ners are beloved to be dead as the
result of an explosion at the extensive
mine of the Wellington Colliery- COM
pany today near Nanaimo. The death
list may be even larger, as sixty mi
ners we're entombed. by the explosion
with slight chance or rescue.
The explosion was due to fire damp,
the tinbers in two levels at once ig-
hitting and the fire spreading with
great rapidity.
The mine is situated sixty miles
north OF Victoria near the seacoast.
Some of the chambers run under the
sea. They are owned by Governor
Dunsmuir of British Columbia.
Nanaimo, b. c., Oct. 5.-Twenty-five
OF the imprisoned men were rescued
later but the rapidly spreading fire
prevented the rescuers from complet-
ing their work. Eight bodies were re-
covered and the workers late tonight
were making every effort to force fur
the entrance into the two levels af-
fected by the explosion in an effort to
save any who may be living and to
recover the bodies of the dead before
they are consumed.
