WATERFOWL RECTOR AT
 UNITED LENTEN SERVICE
Rev. F. B. Whitcome Preached at
 Christ Church.

In the united Lenten services for the Episcopal churches, Rev Francis B. Whitcome of Christ church, Wa tertown, was the preacher at Christ church on Thursday evening The ser vice of evening prayer was conducted by Archdeacon J. E1dred Brown and the rector. Rev R. R. Graham
 From the text That l May Know Him and the Power of His Rcsurrec- ton and the Fellowship of His Suf- fering, the visiting rector delivered an impressive discourse These words, he said, seemed to uncover the master ambition of a great mans life. To know Jesus as St Paul sought to know His was no easy thing It meant the welding together of two personalities, passing through the fire together. for to know the power of His resurrec ton would not be possible without suffering with Him.
 The cross of Jesus means nothing unless you and I pick it up To come to know the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His suffering must be by actual contact with those who need what you can give It must be by literally getting inside the broth erhood of sorrow where you will all ways find Jesus Christ

NOTHING FOUND OF
 THE LOST BARGE.
No Wreclase In Long Island Sound
 From the Anna R.

Not even a hatch cover from seow barge Anna R had been picked up. as far as reports Thursday. to tell of the sinking of the coffin box" and the probable loss of four lives early Wednesday morning off Bartlett's Reef. That Captain DrfscoI1, his wife and two children, if the children were in the cabin, perished was accepted as fact
 The place where the Anna R. Went down is known to mariners as Bloody Ground It is west of Bartlett Reef Fishermen named it years ago because, the theory is, when the sand sharks and the bigger fish fell in among schools of mackerel and smaller fish the water was bloody with fish gore That's why a deep hole, a quarter of a mile east and west, gets it's name, though it might be called that from the many losses of human life there have been there.
 On Bloody Ground, when the waves run high, they mark the spot by being two and three times higher than waves in other parts of Long Island Sound Tug Sarah E. McWilliams had struck these seas when she lost the Anna R. from her tow. She had three scows. The James H Scully and the Blue Bennett were being lowed tandem be- hind the tug with about 200 fathoms of hawser out The Anna R., with 75 fathoms of hawser or so was towing aStern of the pair.

She said that she seized the iron and struck him on the forehead in self defense. The physician was summoned and dressed the wound. According to what MT.

 All this is due to weak, inactive kid neys- Tlre kidneys are the filterers of the blood, and no one can be well and healthy unless the kidneys work prop erly, It is even more important than that the bowels move regularly.
 If you suffer with such symptoms don't neglect yourself another day and run the risk of serious complications.

Berlin Prohibits Horse Cab.

While in most of the large cities of
civilized countries the taxicab reigns
practically supreme, Berlin is the first
metropolis to pass a law prohibiting
horse-drawn cabs from carrying fares
within its Jurisdiction. Such an ordi.
nance was put in force recently and
the few remaining Cables were given
notice OF the death of their trade. Pro.
vision was made for the instructing of
the cabmen as chauffeurs, and $50
was given as compensation for their
loss of trade. This gives the taxicab
drivers monopoly, but, as the city
authorities have stringent regulations
covering the tolls and other matters.
no trouble Is expected from that
source. Co-incidens with this news
comes the information from London
that the cab situation is so bad there
that society has been formed for
the relief of INDECENT cab drivers who
are now unable to reap living owing
to the inroads taxicabs have made on
their fares.
