CHURCHES OF HARTFORD

OUR RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATION.
The spiritual welfare is taken care Of
by churches of the following denomina-
tons: Baptist, Methodist, Episcopal South
Christian, Presbyterian, and several col
ored churches. The church buildings are
in the main large and commodious.
The great interest is manifested in all
the religious services as well as in the
work of the numerous auxiliary societies
and that the various pastors are earnest
workers in the cause, is evident from
the high moral tone of the city. Hart
ford is particularly free from the rough
element, and chimes of any description
are rare indeed, and this condition Is
undoubtedly due to great measure to the
good influences which radiate in all di
rections from our religious organi-
cations.

SIX POSTAL CLERKS UPON
WHOM POSTMASTER GENERAL
HITCHCOCK'S AK OESCENDS
Farmer Learns the Names from Private Sources-MoTe
Changes at the Post Office in Addition to Those
Already Announced

There is much speculation going on
about the city upon the question Of
the identity of the six clerks who are
to be dropped from the post-office in
compliance with Postmaster General
Hitchcock's economy campaign.
Assistant Postmaster Lyon who is
in charge Of the office during the ILL
ness of the postmaster declined this
morning to announce before Feb. II
the names of the clerks who are to
be given indefinite leave of absence"
He said that he did not know whether
he would announce it then, but would
leave it to the clerks themselves. All
of the clerks who are ito be given the
leave of absence will receive notice
before Saturday.
From good authority outside of the
local office The Farmer learned today
that the clerks to be dropped are the
following:
Miss Julia G. Plummer of SO Olive
street, formerly clerk to Frederick
Hunt while the latter was cashier and
of late the time clerk at the Office.

office last September and formerly
clerk in the Dead Letter Office at
