successful and achieving through arr bitraf ton a reduction from 6U to A hours in the working week. The speaker made grateful reference to Gen. William A. Aiken, who was the carpenters arbitrator in this matter. Wages have been raised from S2 to B minimum, and the speaker said that if mistakes had been made they were only such as might have oc- cured with any organization of hu- man beings. His remarks were re- ceived with loud applause. An espe- cially pleasing feature of the evening came in a tenor solo. Spring Is Com ing, by Arthur R. Blackledge, who was enthusiastically encored, and gave The Rosary in response.
 Successes of the Union.
 Chairman McNeely called the at tention of his hearers to some of the successes of the union stating that it's success was due largely to the CO., operation of the contractors and of the public of the city, and he remind ed the carpenters how little fighting there had been locally as compared with other sections of the country in obtaining like conditions. lie read some well written verses touching up- on the history of the union and the efficiency of it's business agent, MT. Kelley.
 
 by MT. BIackledge, the chairman read a letter of regret from General Aiken, who had been invited to attend the anniversary, but wrote that he was prevented by home engagements. He expressed his best wishes for the con- tinued prosperity of Thames No. 134-
 Gift to Business Agent Kelley.
 Chairman McNeely then sprung the surprise of the programme when he mess Agent Kelley and presented him some heavy gold watch chain to ex- press their confidence in him and their satisfaction with his services both to- wards the union and towards the pub lie. The gift was evidently much of a surprise to Mir Kelley, but he made a brief and hearty response, express ing his sincere gratitude, and pledglng that he would always in the future try to merit the confidence of his fellow carpenters as he had tried in the past. He was given a great round of ap- plause as he went forward to receive his gift.
 Dr. P H. Hartman had been on thy programme to speak, but the commit tee was regretfully compelled to sur render him to a professional call. which came just in time to prevent his attendance at the anniversary.
 For the rest of the evening dancing was enjoyed to the music of the or chestra, after the carpenters had done a speedy bit of work in clearing the floor of the supper tables.

TOLD OF WORK OF
 SABBATH LEAGUE
Rev. w. S. McIntire Received Many Subscriptions for Work at EesisIa- ture.

The Rev W. s. McIntire, field secre- tary of the Sabbath league, spoke to a fair sized audience at the First Bap- tist chcrch in this city. Sunday, some coming from a distance to hear him.
 Descending from Scotch people that immigrated from Scotland in the 17th century, six generations ago, and set tied in York county. Maine. he had the Yankee twang of the down easter in his speech. Without manuscript or note of any kind he handled the third house of the legislature, the lobby, without gloves, showing how much it cost to support 1t and what an influ- ence it had in governing the other two branches of the legislature. Vividly he portrayed the work of the league in it's effort during the session of the last legislature to head off the pas- sage of bills drafted by the lobby to legalize Sunday baseball. opening of the theaterS on the Lords day and al- so stores and shops. He told of the work being done in the borough of Torrington, especially among the for eigners, to get them to close their stores and give up work on Sunday, reading list of names that had al- ready been notified by the league for the first time and exhibiting envelopes containing second notice he was about to send them that, if they per sisted longer in doing business on Sunday, the league would certainly enforce the law.
 At times his attitudes and gestures were dramatic, reminding some of the older members of the congregation of Dow, and Bentley and Talmadge. He called a spade spade and black black. His discourse was full of wit, yituper- ation and scorn. holding his audience >spellbound. He carried them with him, and when the envelopes with lit- tie pencils were distributed down the aisles for a subscription or a contribu- ton to the work of the league many gave generously on the spot, or sub- scribed a goodly sum to be collected later to carry on the work at Hartford during the present session of the gen. eral assembly.
 One of the congregation, in writing of Rev. MT. McIntire and his work said that he should be heard here again in the near future and his coming be more generally advertised, so that many now indifferent to the work of the league may become enthusiastic in its support.
 The foreigners coming from the old world would bring with them their customs and pernicious practices and thing that there are such men as the Rev. w. $. McIntire, who has the courage of his convictions, to take up the work that Norwich's immortal Leonard Bacon laid down to serve notice on them: Thus far shall you go and no further
