RESTORATION OF
OLD TRINITY CHURCH
Work ON Antique Edifice May Per-
init Opening by Last of October.

The work of restoring Old Trini-
ty P. E. Church, in Dorchester Par
ish, which has been in progress for
the past month, is being pushed as
rapidly as possible, and it is eNpec-
ted that the repairs will be COM
pleted so that the re-opening SER
vice can be held late in October, or
the first of November. The anci-
ent edifice was found to be even in
worse state of dilapida ton than
was at first supposed. 1t has been
necessary to put On an entire new
roof, new floor and wainscoting, in
addition to bracing the walls which

ing to decayed state of the bricks,

cred with plank flooring the idea
of restoring the original tiled floor
had to be abandoned. This fact
alone bears testimony to the an
tiquity of the church.
Responses to the appeal publish
ed by the committee, which assum-
ed the responsibility of restoring
the church, have been very gener-
Gus, evincing the genuine interest
of the public generally in the work.
A great many of the contributions
have been voluntary. The restora-
ton fund now amounts to 1896,
but much more will be needed to
complete the work Subscriptions
for this purpose will be gratefully
received by any one of the follow
ing members of the committee:

King Charles of Roumania is seri-
ously i'll. The advanced age of the
Roumanian king-he was born in 1889
causes grace fears that he may not
survive.
Roumania was a Turkish province
until about IS years ago, but gained
neutrality-suspicious. during the Crimean
war and full independence when Aus
tria and Germany fought.
Prince Bismarck placed Prince
Charles of Hohenzollern upon the

In the Russian-Turkish war of 1878,
Roumania aided Russia, against the
wishes of England, and King Charles
made the capture of Plevna possible
Russia's gratitude was shown by de-
manding one-third of the Roumanian
empire, which the powers permitted.
Under King Charles, Roumania has
advanced from poverty and illiteracy
