Firm in Invitation.

The Ministers Association of the city has been carrying on a cores pohdence for some months with the representative of Dr. Chapman and the noted singer, Alexander, in the hope that they may be secured for a campaign here at no very distant date. They have just returned from a world tour in which they carried on 20 campaigns with great success. In Australia the enthusiasm of the country rose to the highest pitch and no halls were large enough to hold the multitudes that flocked to hear the gospel preached and sung. The have followed is to hold simultaneous they come, with one big central meet ing with a trained choir. In Boston 166 churches united in the campaign last winter and about forty evange- lists with singers held services for weeks in various centers with the re- suit that the old city was walked up as never before since the early days of Moody.
 The plan demands that expenses be reduced to a minimum, consistent with efficiency. No campaign has ever closed with debt. Three-fold work is carried on; the preparation of the field by preliminary group meetings, training of choirs, adver- tisement in homes; the visit of the evangelists and then the following work under the pastors themselves.

GREAT EVANGELISTS
 ASKED TO BRIDGEPORT
Chapman and Alexander Have Just Returned From World Tour During Which They Carried on 20 Cam- paigns of Revival=-In the Boston Campaign 100 Churches United Nearly All Protestant Ministers Firm in Invitation

Uniformly it has been found that non church-goers have been reached, turned to their places and the com munity has been lifted up to better things. Besides the meetings held twice daily, visits are paid to public institutions, to shut-ins, to saloons and other resorts, under trained work CTS in that special business.
 Sometimes theaters are utilized and midnight meetings held in them.
 As to the financial side of the cam paign the evangelists make no agree ment for their own remuneration, but accept whatever is given freely at the close of the meetings. For the ex- penses of railroad travel, board, ad- vertisements, printing, and hiring halls, collections are taken daily. Usually some plan has been adopted to underwrite the necessary bills in advance, but in most cases the re- ceipts from collections cover every thing. Money comes easily when hearts are touched.
 Nearly all the Protestant ministers of this city joined last summer in the first call to the evangelists. An inn mediate and earnest effort will be al once made to secure the names wanting. There is good encourage ment to believe that practically un- animous invitation will bring these distinguished men here some time al the end of this year. Other cities are pressing their claims but Bridgeport will have good hearing.

 A Great Money Saving Organization
 If you want to see an example of the strenuous life in most nnmistak- able form you should pay a call to the warehouses of S. B. Thing & O., located in Boston, Mass, and Syra- cuse, N. Y., where they are shipping thousands of cases of rubbers to all parts of the country. But with all the hustle and hurry attendant to the fil- ting of so many orders one cannot get an accurate idea of the immense volume of business which is done by this firm in rubbers alone (for they handle also boots and shoes as is well known) you might place conservative estimate on the extent of this busi- ness and when you were told the ex- act figures the chances are you would be astonished. Thing 6 Co, with their eleven retail stores and their immense jobbing business which keeps eighteen road salesmen out the year round are the biggest dealers in rub- bers east of Chicago. In the face of the great scarcity of rubbers and the rising market Thing & Co.,, are con- tinuing to greatly undersell the ordi- nary dealer resulting in a very at tractive saving to purchasers who take advantage of cut prices. No need ot paying high prices for rubbers when you can buy them for such low prices at Things Shoe Store, 1153 Main st.

FIRE IN TWISTED
Hardware Factory Partly Destroyed =
 Loss $5O,OO0-l25 0ut of Work.

winsted, Jan. S.-Fire partly des- troyed the factory of the T. c. Rich ards Hardware company last night. The two upper stories of the main building. a four story-brick structure, were destroyed and in places the fire ate it's way clear to the bottom. With the roof ablaze from end to end near ly 300 feet and the flames leaping high into the air, the fire presented a spectacular appearance.
 The loss is estimated at $5O,O00 and is fully covered by insurance. The firemen were greatly handicapped by rain which froze as fast as it fell, and a shortage of water in the lake stream, which left the engine useless the greater part of the time.
 This is the third fire loss that the Richards company has suffered. Sev- eral years ago the factory was dam aged to the extent of $530,000 and pre- ' iously to that 1t was totally de- stroyed. The company employs about 125 hands, mostly men. The origin of the fire is unknown.

MONEY LENDERS
 CASE IS ARGUED
DORIS GRIFFTTHS CASE BEFORE
 SUPREME COURT.

The Supreme court reached the Hart ford county cases yesterday and one of the interesting ones argued was that of the State against Doris Griffith. The woman was the agent in Hartford of D. H. Holman. the money lender who operates in different cities. It was alleged that she charged greater rate of interest for loans than is permit ted by the law.
 In the Superior criminal court last September, she was found guilty un- der each of six counts and Judge Bur pee fined her $1,000 under each count, and sentenced her to jail for sixty days. There is an earlier sentence of the court pending against her and she has two appeals before the Supreme court. both being argued as one case. One of the main contentious of the lawyers on the part of Miss Griffith Is that she was engaged in a note shaving business and not in the busi- ness of loaning money. She is under bonds of 5000 to appear in the Su- perior court for final Judgment. should the decision of the Supreme court be against her. Since her last conviction Tolnan has discontinued his business in Hartford.
