city and doubtless will prove a big
task as the alleys are Uttered with
ashes and winters refuse and many Of
the streets are covered with several
inches OF mud. Twenty teams are TO
be kept busy until the work is done.
As today ends the fiscal year OF the
city. the money from the collection OF
1912 taxes becomes available tomor-
row and this gives the street depart
ment money on which to work. For
months past It has scraped along as
best it could on its own funds and
on money borrowed from the contin-
gent fund
One Of the first things to be taken
up by the department and the com
mission as a whole will be the pur-
chase of a street fusher. II is figured
that such a contrivance would actually
effect a saving for the department
as vel. as do far better and more
work than II is possible TO do under
the presen: system. The flusher would
be especially effective on the new as
phalt paving, though it also does good
work on brick paving, provided it is
in fair state OF repair.

SWEDISH CHURCH
HISTORY WRITTEN
DR.. Nels Forsander of Angus
tana College Translates
Works Into English.

One Of the most important works
ever written by faculty member OF
Augustana seminary has just been
by Or y. Forsander. pro-
lessor OF church history al the local
II consists of life pictures
and biographies taken from Swedish
church history and told in the Eng
lish language. From a historian point
OF view the book is of intense inter
est, being brimful of graphic descrip-
tions and characteristic sketches that
throw light on many phases of Swedish
ecclesiastical history not generally
known.
DR.. Fortender has dedicated his
work to the Luther leagues OF the
Augustana synod. it being his desire
that the knowledge of what is best
and most interesting in Swedish
church history may be preserved for
future generations in this country.
his. he believes, will be best accom-
plished by using the language of the
land, and he has therefore couched his
book in the best Of English.
The book has been presented by Dr.
Forsander 70 the board of directors Of
the institution for publication, the pro-
ceeds from its sale TO be applied TO
a seminary dormitory fund, TO which
DR.. Forsander has already contributed
81 900. II is the hope OF the author
that a new seminary dormitory may
be erected and dedicated in time for
the jubilee festival of 1917. when the
Augustana synod will commemorate
the 4OOth anniversary of I.uther's ac-
ton in mailing up his % themes on
the chapel door at Wittenberg. This
anniversary vii be celebrated on an
imposing scale by all Lutheran bodies
throughout the world.
DR.. Forsander's book is divided into
three sections, the first pOrtraying
scenes and characters from the middle
ages, the second from the reformation
period. and the third from 1923 down
70 the present time To the middle
ages belongs three chapters. They
are entitled "Ansgar and the first

Lund and of Upsala."
The reformation is handled in two
chapters. The first is concerning Claus
Perri. the great Swedish reformer,
and the other is a graphic description
Of the historic council of Upsala in
1893, when the Augsburg confession
was adopted by the Swedish church as
d whole.
The period from the Council Of Up
sala TO the present time is covered
principally by means of biographies
and life pictures. The chapters are

PRIEST RISKS
LIFE To SAVE
THE SACRAMENT
Catholic Church in KensingtOn
Destroyed by Fire Early
Today

Berlin, Conn, March "a revised
estimate Of the loss resulting from
the total destruction by fire early to-
day of st. Paul's Roman Cat holic
church, with large part of it's fur
nishings in the Kensington District,
places it at $3.50 The fire started
in the vestry room, spread rapidly,
and for a time threatened the rectory
and other buildings close by. Efforts
of local fire companies, aided by one
from New Britain, confined the flames
to the church. Rev. J. c.. Brennan,
the pastor, saved the sacrament from
the altar at the risk Of his life.
The edif1ce was erected about thirty
years ago and served a parish Of be-
tween 500 and 700 people.
The origin OF the fire has not been
determined and Father Brennan stat
ed this morning that he was unable to
give any explanation of it. Services
were held in the church last evening,
closing somewhat after 8 O'Clock, no
one being in the edif1ce after that.
The fire. broke out shortly after mid
night and it is thought it may have
been smou1dering in the vestry for
several hours.

HANDSOME AFFAIRS
FOR ST. PATRICK'S
CHURCH FINISHED
Marble Fixtures Arrive in Boston
from Quarries in
Italy

Rev. Father j. B. NihilI pastor of
st. Patrick's r. c. church today re-
ceived word from the builders that
the three handsome marble affairs for
the new edifice have arrived in Bos-
ton from Italy. They will be shipped
to this city at once by the builders,
Nardini and company, of Boston.
The affairs are OF exquisite design
and are valued at considerably more
than $4,000. In addition to the main
altar, the side affairs to the Blessed
Virgin and ST. Joseph are OF marble.
designed by Nardinf and executed at
the quarries in Italy.
Besides the affairs, there has also
arrived in Boston. the white marble
altar railing, which will extend across
the front of the sanctuary. The rail-
ing will be brought here Immediately
and put into position when the affairs
are erected.
Father NihiH hopes to have the
dedicatory exercises in the new church
this summer. Some delay has been
occasioned by strike in the factory
where the lighting fixtures are being
made. The lighting in the new
church will be the indirect system
mirrors being used in the fixtures, so
that a. soft glow is distributed evenly
over the interior of the edifice. The
fixtures will be most artistic in design.
