William Fl. Shields Secures Notable Proclamation by Governor Ellsworth Yp 12do

Attorney William H. Shields, who is constantly adding to an already large collection of old and rare books and documents, has just made @ valued addition to 1t in an original copy, In q remarkably fine state of preservation, of a proclamation for a day of fasting and prayer in 1s42 issued by Governor William w, Ellsworth.
 One of the most brilliant men of his day, and twice declining election to the United States senate Governor Ells- worth's proclamation evokes admira- ton and challenges comparison with similar present day efforts for It's lofty spirit and diction.
 The proclamation was as follows.

All nations in every aga of the world have believed in the existence of some superior power, and have had their peculiar religious rites, Often indeed 1t had its origin amid the lowest depths of ignorance and depraVity, and led to the gr6ssest idoiatFy and the widest sanat1oism, The history of the world through long ages of dark hess and error has proved the insuffi- discover the light of religious truth, To the Holy Scriptures we are !n- debted for all certain knowledge of the nature and character of the Supreme Being. our dependence upon and ob- ligatiens to Him as cur Creator, Pre- server.

COULD EASILY PUT
In State Senate of 1914 4-15-Demoorats
 Need Not Worry.
OLD RULE IN FORC

The quintet of democratic senators l in the senate of 1914-15, worrying over an inability to keep up with their committee work under the rules of the last session. allotting three senators to each of the 35 joint committees, may cease their fears. With one minority senator on each of the 35 committees, as the rules adopted at the last session provide. each of the five democratic senators would have assignments to five standing commit tees. This would be work enough for even the most ambitious statesman. But the republican majority has no intention of thrusting so great an amount of work upon the handful of democrats. It would change the rules, but it was surprised to find how easy was the way paved. All that need be done is to have some senator ard some member in the house, on the opening day of the next session move the adoption by this assembly of the joint rules of the senate and house of representatives of Connecticut, ap- bearing on pages 115-122, inclusive, of the state register and manual, the official publication of the state.
 Rule 2 reads: "On or before the third day of every stated session in the general assembly, there shall be committees, each of which shall con- Sist of two senators and nine repre- sentatives, except the committee on engrossed bills, which shall consist of two senators and two representatives, one from the majority and one from the minority in each house."
 To be sure, the last assembly adopt ed a different rule, but the new rule has not been inserted in the official publication of the state. Perhaps the compilers of the register appreciated that the old rule would be restored, and did not bother with giving the new one posterity.
 The rule as it appears in the pocket manual of the last assembly reads as follows:
 "On or before Jan. 2S. 1913, there shall be appointed 35 standing com mittees, each of which shall consist of three senators and nine represen- tatives and on each committee a ma pority and no more of the senators shall be appointed from the political party whose members are in major ity in the senate, and a majority and no more, of the representatives from the political party whose members are in majority in the house of repre- sentatives; provided, however. that the committee on expressed bills shall con- sist of two senators and two represen- tatives, one only to be appointed from the majority party of each house.
 So it can be seen that the Compilers of the state register have made easy the way for the republican majority to relieve their democratic brethren from Uverwork through excessive committee appointments. Of course. the change could be made anyway, were the new rule incorporated in the state publica- tion, but there would be the necessity of a little more strategy in the ap- proach.

NORWICH TOWN
Meeting of Home Missionary Society Mock Town Meeting Affords Diver sion-Kins's Daughters Benevolent Work.

The meeting of the Ladies' Home Missionary society for prayer and discussion held Wednesday afternoon in the chapel of the Congregational church was more informal than usual, and consequently more interesting. Present conditions in this country aad in Europe deepened the impression of the effective work of this union as now organized. The relation of the local to the state and national unions was explained and the final federa- tion of the societies of the different denominations. Mrs. T. J. Wattles gave interesting accounts of 8 recent meet ing which she attended in Providence of the Woman's Home Missionary federation in Rhode Island. The na- tional federation as outside work $ raising $126,000 for a much needed building for the Schauffler Training school in Cleveland, O., in which many here are interested

To such a Being how natural and be- coming is the attitude of humiliation and prayer, to deprecate the merited anger of a Holy God upon individual, as well as upon national offenses.

 For this purpose, in accordance with established usage, 1 do hereby appoint Friday, the twenty fifth day of March next, to be observed throughout this state 'as day of fastingI humiliation and prayer; and invite the people on said day, to review their lives during the past year, with Christian faithful ness; to assemble in their respective places of worship, and with deep hu- initiation of spirit implore the pardon of Almighty God; to be humbled for the little reverence there is among us for His authority, and His sacred word and institutions; for our cold and thanklesS reception of temporal and spiritual benefits: for the existence of pride, falsehOod, avarice, intemper- ance, injustice and discontent; for dis regard to the claims of the poor and ignorant and oppressed in our own and Tn heather lands; for the continuance Of the traffic in human beings in this free republic; for a spirit of war fos- tered and unrebuked; for the restless ambition, violence and party zeal manifested in our public councils, as well as for the want of activity and nberality in the promulgation of the truths of our holy religion.
 While we mourn for the past, let prayer be offered that God would con tinue to bless this state; that He would direct us in the path of duty; make us acknowledge His supremacy; avert the consequences of our sins, and perpetuate our numerous civil and philanthropic institutions.
 Let prayer likewise be made for the President of these United States and for all that are in authority, that they may be inspired with the fear of God the love of their fellow men, and a hearty devotion to the country which has intruSted. her dearest interests to their wisdom and integrity.

SALVATION ARMY IN
 EUROPEAN WAR ZONE
Reports Heard by Ensign and Mrs.
 Wilbur at Hartford Convention.

Wilbur at Hartford Convention.
 Ensign and Mrs. E. W. Wilbur have returned from the Southern New Eng land councils held at Hartford last week. Many distinguished officers of the Salvation Army were present and the work for fall and winter was duly mapped out as well as plans to help those in distress across the sea. Hundreds of the Army'S officers and soldiers of all the nations now at war have gone to the front and many have already laid down their weapons to take up their abode ainong the ron somed throne of God In Europe the Army girls are sheltering vast num- bers of homeless women and children in their quarters and cellars and show ing their strength to encourage the hearts that are so fearful.
 That the Army is absolutely impar- tial everywhere is shown in the re- port of ritish captain, who writes that she with her lieutenant made lunch for the British while they were Nuilding trenches and when the Ger mans came along that they carried not coffee and rolls to the soldier Germans while bullets whizzed by their ears in both directions. One sergeant of the Salvation Army has been sent home wounded, with 10th legs gone. one arm and both eyes rone and in this wretched condition l6 IS dSSuESO O1 SuppOTI 1OT LIlS 4C- nainder of his life by the Salvation Army.
 The song Ttpperary was being sung along the firing line by the British CTS and this fellow who is now so crippled for life had composed sacred words to the same tune before he left home and he readily made use of these which carried a strain of protection in God, ''rIl put my trust in the safest guide know" until many of the boys learned the Army sergeant's version and the captain of the regiment sent for him and asked that he tell him the words. Consequently the whole regi- ment, from the captain down, sang the tune of Tipperary to sacred words.
 The Army girls are doing noble work on the battlefield and they tell us that it is none other than the Great God who protects them as they travel be- tween shot and shell and bring com fort to the men in line.

Boston, Nov. 12-The attitude of the churches toward the nations was crit icized in an address today by Rev. Dr. Frederick Lynch of New York, a rep resentative of the Church Peace union, before the New England Congregation al church. "One cause of this war is that the churches have had a double standard of ethics" he said. They have not condemned the great nations for attacking weaker ones. The church must preach to the nations as well as to individuals"
