They Say.

The pastoral letter OF Bishop Muir
ray urging members Of The Protestant
Episcopal Church 20 observe Lent
more strictly met with hearty in
dorsement yesterday by a number
of social leaders whose word counts
for much in Baltimore's -Four Hun
dred.
1t was said in some quarters
that the Bishop would succeed only
in causing a little stir. just a bit
OF "psrlor gossip, which would be
forgotten almost Immediately. As
a n after Of fact, the letter was re
ceived in the several city churches
with the utmost attention and there
were not many who were willing 70
say that IL would not accomplish

Bishop spoke by members of our
church. OF course, members Of other
d nominations who do not believe in
keeping Lent are justified in enter
tanning as they please. Il is very
wrong, think, for persons who
claim to regard Lent seriously TO
act as they have done this season. "
Mrs. William NJ Manly, sister of

Gill, is a member Of Christ Church,
Baltimore, was quite as emphatic as
Mrs Gill 80 believe that the
Bishop was absolutely right, she
said, although ] hardly think this

bishops and ministers point the way

Church, "and while l hate carde

hard for me TO stop, as the Bishop

The letter was kindly word Of

Mrs. Frederick NJ Colston. wife
of Captain Colston and a member Of

YOUNG WOMAN BRUISED
And Horse That Collided with Her Steed
Had to Be Killed.

! Miss Jennie Plouh, young woman
living at 1873 South Main street, sus.
tanned painful bruises about the head
her fathers wagon was damaged to a
considerable extent and a horse belong
ing to the Ryan stable in upper Granite
vile was so badly injured that vet
erinarian had to kill the animal. in an
accident which occurred at the Quarry
street intersection of South Main street
last night. Mr., Plouff and his daughter
were returning from their store at lower
Websterville. The elder Plouff was driv-
ing his own horse, and a few PAGES in
the rear his daughter was driving an
other horse They had just made the
turn onto South Main street, when the
Ryan livery team grazed the wagon oc-
cupied by the elder Plouff and collided
with Miss Plouf's team
The girl was thrown from the carriage
and landed on the curbing, her head
striking a sharp stone. One of the
thills, in the mix-up, penetrated the
breast of the livery horse and the driver
of the same steed received several
scratches. The injured horse was exam
med by Dr. Bancroft of South Barre,
who ordered it killed Miss Plouff was
taken to her home.
In telling his side of the story Mr..
Plouff states that the livery outfit from
was proceeding rather rap
idly on the wrong side Of the street.
Mr.. Plouf, himself had lighted lantern
on the dashboard of his wagon and as
his daughters team was only a short
distance behind him, he feels sure that
there was light enough to prevent the
collision if the other man had used
little more caution.
