Harmon and Wnson.

The race for the Democratic
nomination for president has de-
volyed upon two conspicuous can
didates and seems to be xree-foF-
an contest with no particular
chances in favor of either in the
opinion OF the Pittsburg Gazette
Times. Says that newspaper:
There have been two recent de-
yalopments which lend interest to
the Democratic contest for honors
.iFl-,nsxt gears national conventions
Speaker Clark has written a let
ter saying he is not candidate this
time and does not purpose to
20 chasing after another Office while
his present position requires his at
tenticn. Though this is not de-
clination it indicates that the gen.
4leman from Bowling Green has
reached the conclusion that It is not
wise to tempt fate too far. Mean
time the supporters of hudson Har-
mon are arranging for vigorous
canvass In the far West, with
Washington state as the starting
point, and they propose a back fire
row wilson busy.
5ntil last November the Ohio
governor had a fairly heartening
outlook, which was improved by
the surprisingly large plurality he
received for a second term. On
fortunately for him Governor VIII
son, OF New Jersey, who is brilliant
where Garmon is dismal and dull,
ana magnetic where Harmon is the
opposite, secured a running start
over the country and found so
to his sophistrfes and Organism that
lately he has had much the best Of
the situation. 1t is questionable,
however, whether Mr.. Wilson has
been holding his own. There arc
many who consider him more dan
gerous than Bryan, because in some
senses he is a man OF diner fiber
and may appeal with greater force
to a more substantial public, and
this feeling is likely to operate in
favor of Harmon. A great deal
necessarily depends upon develop
ments at the adjournment of Con
Gress, when the country is called
upon to decide whether President
Taft and the regular Republicans or
the Democrats of the House and
Senate have the stronger claim to
general confidence. In any event
Il Is evident there Will be a fight
TO the finish between the Harmon
and Wilson people, with certain i'm
patient dark horses on the side,
and as two-thirds vote Will be nee
essary to win out in the convention
there is plenty of entertainment
ahead.

CHARGED WITH EMREzZLiNG
5000 FROM FORMER WIFE
Martin Berent Arrested Here Saturday
and Taken to Danieison.

Martin Berent was arrested here on
Saturday afternoon charged with the
emhezzlement of $500 from his divorced
wife, Lily Hurst of Clarks Mills, n. Y,
is locked up in the Danielson station,
and will have a hearing this (Monday)
morning. He has been wanted on this
charge for many months. The Ber-
ents formerly lived near East Kill
ingly. He is q German and his for
mer wife English Something over
two years ago their home at East Kill
ingly was destroyed by fire and the
insurance of $500 was placed in the
National bank in Danielson. in the
name of Mrs. Berent. Later domestic
troubles developed and Mrs. Berent
applied for and secured a divorce in
the superior court for Windhsm coun-
ty. After receiving the decree she went
back to Clarks Mills, n, Y, and Berent
went to Philadelphia 1t appears that
some months ago Berent wrote to her
and suggested that she give him an or
der to transfer the money from the
national bank to the savings bank of
Danielson, that the account might be
made to earn interest 1t is alleged
that she gave him such an order, and
that he came to Danielson, drew the
money from the National bank, but
failed to re-deposit it to her credit.
In March of this year Attorney Bill
attached the mortgage that Berent
held On the place at East Killingly,
which he had sold. All efforts to To-
cate Rerent since that time have failed
until he wrote to his former wife re-
Gently from Norwich, suggesting, it is
said, that they come to some agree
nent and settlement of the matter.
Her reply to this proposition was to be
sent to him at Norwich, general de-
livery. This clue as to his whereabouts
was given local officers by the woman
and arrangements were made last
month with Acting Chief Linton to
post a man in the postoffice in that
city and watch for man who would
call for such mail. The guard was
set on Wednesday of last week but it
was not until Saturday afternoon and
about O'Clock that the wanted man
into the office and called for his mail.
He was arrested by Supernumerary

times, whilst the chanters sing or re-
cite the psalm "Miserere." He then
sprinkles the walls in the interior OF
the church three times, first the lower
part, then on a level with his face and
lastly the upper part, after which he
sprinkles the floor of the church in the
form of cross. passing from the altar
to the door and from the Gospel to the
Epistle side in the middle of the
church. Having returned to the mid
die of the church, he sprinkles with
one swing each time the floor before
him, behind him, at his left, and at
his right.
Exhortation to the People.
The bishop next gives suitable ex-
hortation to the people. Then one of
the clergy reads the two DEGREES of the
Council of Trent from the Pontif1cal.
The bishop next anoints with holy
chrism, three times. the pillar on each
side OF the door, after which the clergy
and laity enter the church, and the
conservation of the altar takes place.

least one fixed altar must be conse-
Grated.
Finally, the II crosses on the in
terror walls are anointed with holy
chris1n and incensed by the bishop.

THE SIN OF HAVING
OUR OWN WAY.
Gods Commands Should Be Interpreted
by His Own Words and Not What
We Prefer.

large number attended services at
the gospel tent on Mckinley avenue
Sunday evening. Evangelist Andrews
discoursed earnestly on the subject The
Sin of Having Our Own Way.
The text from the book of Proverbs
was as follows: There is a way that
seemeth right to man, but the end
thereof are the ways of death.
Does this scripture say 1t makes no
difference what one believes II he is
only sincere? 1t does not seem exactly
so. / think very many are inclined to
reason away the divine mandate by
choosing for themselves according to
convenience, public opinion, etc. and
persuading their conscience that 1T IS a
small matter with the great Jehovah
up in heaven whether they DO THIS way
or that way.
But this principle is the crucial
point-just the trouble with fallen hu-
man nature-whether We will give up
our own way and fully accept the di-
vine way. To this end. that the way
may be SO plain that wayfaring man
need not err therein the Bible contains
line upon line. precept upon precept,
here a little and there little.
Now does this mean l must turn
from my ways entirely and do as the
Bible says entirely? That is just what
conversion means, a turninb about. a
turning away from our own liking
and learn heavens ways instead.
Now when parent says to the
child: Eff you do that way again, l
will punish YOU" the child repeats the
act and the parent Sa-r- IF you do
that way again I'll punish you sure, .
what is the result? Disregard for the
word of that parent. And I'll tell you
if parents would do just as they prom
Use there would be more people today
obedient to the Lord.
Children allowed to have their own
way in the home will find it easy and
perfectly natural to disregard the word
of the Lord. The longer I live the
more I am convinced that here is
where the majority who start in the
Christian race come short. and are de-
ceived by the enemy of souls. For
many are called but few are chosen. y
An impressive object lession is given
in I Kings. IS. to illustrate how God
is to be taken with reference to what
He says. The evangelist told the story
of the young prophet who was sent
by God but failed to do as told and
lost his life.
How many are stumbling at the
word and asking to be excused. Not
every one that sayeth to me Lord, Lord
shall enter into the kingdom. but he
that doeth the will of my father in
heaven"

LAUNCH FOUND AT STONY CREEK
Boat Belonging to E. B. Dawley Which Was Stolen
From Sunnyside Located While Searching For An

evidently did not fully understand it.
Nothing is knownzef the party or par
ties who stole the boat except that one
man was seen coming from it, though
it is believed two were concerned in
the affair. One man was seen to go
aboard the. boat at Stony Creek and
as he left it he was we'll dressed and
carried a grip. What became of him
is not known, but an effort will be
made to run him down.
Mr.. Dawley had been to the expense
of completely overhauling the boat
this spring and fully equipping it, SO
that the loss would have been large
one, as it's cost and improvements in
Volved an expenditure of over $500. II
was not learned whether the articles
taken from the Ringland boat at the
same time ere left aboard the DaW-
ley boat, except a shirt which was
left behind. A fine oil coat and pan
of field glasses were among the artl-
c1es which Mr.. Ringland lost. There
have been Dlany boats stolen along the
coast this season and many boats
have been boarded and ransacked.

After having practically abandoned
hope of finding his launch, which was
stolen from the Thames river at Sun
nyside on the night of August Is, Ev-
erett 3. Dawley of this city on Satur-
day received word that it was at Stony
Greek, where it had been for a week
and half. 1t was discovered by Mr..
Butscn of Stonington, who was seek
ing another launch which had been
stolen from Marblehead and on his Wis
it to Stony Cheek he saw the Dawley
boat, which he was acquainted with,
as he had done considerable work ON
it. Mr.. Butson informed Mr.. Dawley,
who directed him to again visit the
boat and satisfy himself from the de-
scription of certain parts that it was
the Dawley boat. This Mr. Butson
did, and he is to take it to his shop,
where he will probably dispose of it.
The boat had not been badly used,
being practically in the same condi-
ton as when it was taken, though the
party had evidently had quite time
with the running of the engine. as-he
