PLACED LARGE LOG
ON RAILROAD TRACK.
Felix Prokop, Aged "a, Was in Hiding
Near That Point When Log Was
Discovered.

What appeared to be an attempt to
wreck a train on the New Haven road
was made just south of the tannery ia
Greeneville on Monday evening and but
for the low supply of water it is prob
able that some bad accident might
have occurred there
Edward Kilday and daughters had
been to the spring near the tannery
for water and were returning by the
railroad track when they came across
16-foot log across the rails. A young
man was seen hiding there and when
he saw them looking at the log ne
came out Of his hiding place and re-
moved the log. This he did when Mr.
kilday remarked to his daughters that
he intended to tell the police. The
young man then said he woaid take it
away, and he did so.
Mr.. F<ilday, however, reported the af-
fair to Sergeant Conneu, who with
Supernumerary Donovan arrested the
young man at his home near the place.
His name is Felix Prokop and he is
charged with placing an obstruction on
the railroad track.

RATS AND MATCHES
May Have Caused Early Morning Fire
in Hyde Building.

At $50 o'clock Monday morning fire
broke out IN the three story building
at the corner of Elm avenue and Town
street, owned by Mrs Lewis A. Hyde
and occupied by H. S. Young, Mrs.
John Cobb and Mrs. Eecleston. II. S.
Young found smoke issuing from the
partition between the stairway, the
floor of the store and the ceiling of
the market. The partition into the
store was cut away and chemicals
from a hand extinguisher, water, and
brine from the market poured from
above on the blaze, checking it.
Chief Stanton. with the automobile
containing chemicals, came and put an
end to all danger and prevented the
fire from spreading.
The fire burned for an hour. doing
much damage in the partitions, while
smoke and water injured the stock in
the store. The loss is covered by in
surance.
The horizontal uprights in the grid
ers kept the fire from running up to
the roof and destroying the building.
Neighbors worked hard and gave eff
fective help before Chief Stanton could
reach the spot. No cause can be found
for the fire except the theory of rats
and matches, as the electric wires Were
not near where the fire started.

They had asked for the use of a but
tonhoek, which was given them; and
they had asked for some food. While

lay. This fellow disappeared at once,

YALE MISSION COLLEGE
Deseribed by Rev. 6rowneii Gage at
First Church.

Rev. Brownell Gage of the Yale mis-
sion college in Cheung Sha, province
OF Human, China. gave an address full
Of interest at the Sunday evening ser
vice at the First Congressional
church. He told of how Pestalozzi
went to Napoleon with propositions re-
garding the education and training of
the people, but was turned away. Aft
Ell Germany was conquered by France
she turned her attention to strength
ening herself by education and went
to Pestalozzi in Switzerland for in
struction. FFoebel learned of him and
went away to influence the trend of
thought in Germany.
There is a special parallel betWe
the Germany of one hundred years ago
and the China of today. China, like
Germany, has seen her land taken
from her-ber industries crippled, and
is turning to education with which to
make good. The rulers and students
of China are trying to develop a mod
ern educational system. IN establish
ing schools China has the difficulty of
the question of Misunderstanding no
system of taxation. China has no
teachersi Heretofore there have been
only a few schools in the outposts and
few mission schools in the interior,
so where are the teachers to come
from? There is the difficulty OF Ian
guage, words have to be invented for
terms of science and for proper names.
A new system of writing must come.
The attitude of the government to-
wards Christianity is going to be a
hostile one. At TIE same tims they
want Christian American teachers BIT
cause they do conscientious work in
the schools, for their experience with
others secured from America has been
that they do the minimum amount of
work for maximum amount of sal
airy.
The Yale mission band was not Or
ganized by Yale college, but was made
up from the class of 1893, which was
a wonderful one in its zeal for and
interest in missions. He described the
founding, the growth and the influ-
ence of the school and hospital at
Cheqng Sha, started by the Yale band.
There has grown UP loyalty to the
school, the older pupils use their in
fluence unen the younger pupils TO do
what is right. At first there was frie-
ton at morning prayers, but they have
come to like the service.
The Y. M. G. A. was established,
a spontaneous Christian spirit has
grown among the boys. Religion is
now respected. In the early years a
large percentage of the boys were
heather, but now little by little the
Christian influence viii spread and
grow. The band of student volun-
teers in Yale is stronger today-the
chief cause is their interest in the
Yale mission in China.
