UNION OF BANGOR CHURCHES.


BANGOR, Me-, June 81. The union of
the First Parish and Central Congrega-
tional Churches, two of the largest in
the city, has been practically accom-
plished in the formation of corporation
to be known as the All Souls Congrega-
tional Society, which will combine the
resources of the two parishes and erect
Church on Broadway. Both churches
were burned in the recent fire. A build
ing committee will be chosen this week.
The officers of the new corporation are
William P Hubbard, president; Harold
H. Hodge, vice president; Charles D.
Crosby, treasurer; William P. Hubbard,
Charles F. Bragg, Arthur Chaplin, Chas.
D. Crosby, Daniel Webster and Harold
H. Hodge, trustees; Daniel Webster,
auditor The first combined services will
be held at the end Of the summer vaca-
ton, and Rev. Charles A. Moore, who has
been pastor of the Central Church, will
be the first pastor of All Souls Church.
1t is expected the new church will be
ready for occupancy in the fall of 1912.
GoRHAM' S FAREWELL TO REV. R. T. HACK.
DURHAM, julie ~. LII IIlo lTSC r rlSn
Congregational Chapel last evening was
held an informal farewell reception in
honor of Rev. and Mrs. Rollin T. Hack,
who in few days are to leave town for
their new home in East Hampton, Mass.
About $50 were present, the guests in
Guiding delegation from the West Cor
ham parish, and the following out of
town people: Mrs. Charles M. Billings
and daughter, Miss Christine, Mrs. C. H.
Barker, Mrs. George F. McQuillan and
Mrs. Martha Blake of Portland, and Mrs.
M. 3. H. Stewart of Wenonah, N. J.
The evening was very pleasantly passed,
save that the sombre thought of the
separation of pastor and people was
slngularly apparent. In behalf of the
Ladies Circle, Rev. and Mrs Hack were
presented with a beautiful, silver loving
cup, gold lined, and appropriately en-
graved, also with purse of money from
the parishioners, graceful speeches of
presentation being by made by Mrs.
Horatio S. Billings, president of the
Ladies Circle, and by Mrs. William P.
Coffin, to which Mr. Hack feelingly re-
sponded. Light refreshments were serv-
ed by Mrs. Frank A. Ridlon, Miss Nellie
Hibbard, Mrs. John A. Waterman and
Mrs. Charles H. Ridlon, assisted by
young ladies of the parish. The chapel
was effectively decorated with cut flow
ers and potted plants in honor of the oc-
casion. Rev. and Mrs. Hack will be
greatly missed by their many friends in
Gorham and vicinity.

shot through the door at the man whc
took to his heels and ran from the
scene.
Shortly after ten o'clock Wednesday
night Mrs, Turben was sitting in the
front room sewing. Hearing a slight
noise she did not pay much attention
to it but presently faint knock was
heard at the rear door opening into
the kitchen. Someone was knockine
at the door in very cautious manner
Mrs. Turben, as quietly as possible
entered the kitchen and called,
who's there"
Receiving no answer to her query
Mrs. Turben called again but no one
answered. Becoming alarmed she
went to the telephone in an adjoining
room and called Mr.. Turben, who was
at the time, working at the Camr
Glass factory. Her husband told hei
to secure the revolver that was al
the house and, if necessary, shoot the
intruder or intruders if they attempt
ed to effect an entrance into the house
Hanging up the receiver Mrs. Tur
ben listened but did not hear the noise
any longer. Thinking that it might
have been someone trying to scare
her, she returned to the front room
and resumed her sewing. She had
scarcely begun when the tapping al
the back door was again heard. Again
she called her husband over the tele
phone and this time he said that he
would come home as soon as possible
Returning to the Kitchen Mrs. Turben
exclaimed:
Get away from there or will put
some lead through the door" The
knocking continued, and in relating
her story to Banner reporter on
Thursday, she said:
81 ran to the drawer and took the
revolver. Then | went into the kitch.

the back door where the tapping
sounded"
Were you alarmed?" was asked
Mrs. Turben
Yes, | fastened through the house
and fired three more shots, all that
were left in the revolver, out into the
front yard to alarm the neighbors. -
After the shots were fired, Mrs.
Turben says that she heard nothing
more of the intruder nor did she see
anything of him. Her husband ar
rived home shortly afterward and a
general search was made in the yard
and throughout the neighborhood but

CHRISTMAS
Demand For New Money Is
Now On

AS is usual at this time OF the year,
the banks and the treasury department
are being pressed for new money
both notes and coins, says the Wall
Street Journal The banks have pre-
pared themselves for meeting this de-
mand by getting the money from the
government, but the latter has been
hard pushed to supply all the inquiries
from different parts of the country.
This annual Christmas demand how
ever, has become an all year round
nuisance. 1t has become craze and
the treasury department is at loss to
know how to solve the problem of
keeping bills or notes clean. Washing
or "laundrying" has been tried, but
has not as yet proved successful. The
craze has had it's effect upon the re-
demption of national bank notes, for
as soon as a note becomes soiled, il
is quickly rushed to New York city
banks, who Immediately send it to

to no result. Nothing was found to be
missing from the yard or porch where
the man stood while knocking on the
door. The object of the man is not
known and his mysterious actions
cannot be explained.
When the three shots were fired in
to the front yard by Mrs. Turben,
neighbors residing across the street
from the Turben home were aroused
and hastened out into the yard to
learn the cause of the shooting, The
people state that they saw a man run
ming away from the house and that he
disappeared into the shadows further
up the street. No trace could be found
of him and his identity is not known.

Of The Corn Show In Mt.

At The Present Time There
Are ia Entries
Pleasant Grange Has A Very
Fine Exhibit

The fourth annual corn show OF the
Knox County Corn Improvement AS
sociation opened Thursday morning
at the Y. NJ. C. A. building and will
continue through Friday and Saturday,
day and evening, except Saturday ev-
enlng. The exhibition is free.
There are a total of 174 entries The
show has grown each year in size and
quality. Every man who exhibits is
learning whether he wins or not and
brings better sample the following
year.
This year there are samples OF corn,
which should represent Knox county
at the next state show. There are po-
tatoes weighing over one and half
pounds.

Evidence of this demand for new
money is particularly prominent in
this city. At present there are mil
lions of dollars in the vaults of the
sub-treasury that is practically useless
in so far as putting it into circulation
is concerned as the people will not ac-
cept it, while 10 to Is years ago this
same money could have been passed
over the counter without and hesi-
fancy or complaint. The same condi-
ton applies TO coins. The sub-treas-
ury holds four or five million dollars of
subsidiary silver which is in good con-
dition except that it is not bright and
new. If all these coins were new, the
demand is great enough to cause their
withdrawal between now and Christ.

There have always been few peo'
Pile who will carry nothing but new

from messenger boys to bank presi'
dents. Restaurants and hotels of the
first class give nothing but bright
new money in change and some trust
companions have even gone so far as
to advertise that all Withdrawals OF
deposits would be paid in new money
Indignant protests are heard every
day at the sub-treasury and the banks
because some one has been unable
to obtain new bills, 1t is an expensive
craze for the government and conse
quently for the people, but the latter

Settling contracting cpnpany's Affairs

i Peter 5uzio, treasurer Of the COnnec- ! ticut Contracting Company, which has ! just finished the work on section two | Of the sewer, was in the city last week endeavonng tO settle the affairs of the company in this city.
 The second section just finished by the company extended from the outlet Co the river at Bullock street. From Pomfret street to Lee street the pipe had to be laid through solid ledge and
 the work took about a year to com plete. 1t is understood thatIthe con
 tract did not prove profitable to the
 company, and they had some difficult
 ty in completing the work. Some time ago creditors of the contracting com pany began to garnishee the city for the amount of their claims and thus tied up the company's funds.
 Some of these claims were later paid by the city on orders signed by the company. Two or three weeks ago the laborers, who had not received their
 wages for several weeks, quit work, and the city anxious to have the work completed, came 10 the rescue by guar. anteeing their future wages.
 It is said that there is now between three and five thousand dollars due the company on their contract but there are also some outstanding claims for damages from blasting, which, ac- cording to the terms of the contract the company assumed, and also some garnishments which have been served on the city. So it is to be assumed that the city will not pay the money to the company until these claims against the com pany have been satisfied. Dur ing the last several months Suzio gave little personal attention to the work.
