THE CRISIS OF RUSSIA
Great Leader of Russian Baptists Tells of His Work Among Peasanry-Was Arrested and Imprisoned for Spreading the Baptist Faith-Enemies Plotted His Assassination if He Hal Not Left Country.

Meanwhile my church was praying, said Rev. MT. Fetler. Few can real lze the attachment of a Russian min ister to his people nor of his people to him. It wasn't that they paid me to preach; they were as my children God heard their prayers and God an swered. He always does answer in time of greatest need.
 I had scarcely put down my bundle when the same man that took me to a cell came back and said: You are wanted" I asked What for '' The inspector calls" And So I went to the prison office where the inspector said, T have just received a telephone mes sage from high official; you must be freed; you may go home for three days, but you are to sign this paper promising that after three days you will go to Siberia at your own ex- pense."
 We'll, that was better than going straight to Siberia. I went back to my cell. took my bundle and made my way home. On the road met several of my people walking with bowed heads. They were astounded to see me. It was as if a ghost had come"
 Rev. MT. F'etler said that at the end of the three days he did not leave for Siberia for a petition had been sent to the government and he was allow ed to come to this country instead. He said he learned that a plot had been 1Hdue to etSSdSSlndIe nlIl II lle udu not left Russia.
 Russia is on the brink of a great crisis, said Rev. MT. F'etler. Never have the Russian people been seeking the Truth as today. l wish American Christians would come to our help, as never before. Send them something better than ammunition to kill. send them the gospel. What is the most important factor in the present crisis. There are two millions of Russian prisoners in German camps. They are made up of men from all parts of Russia. If we can reach these pris- oners we can reach thousands of will lages in Russia for these men are go- ing home some time and they will take the gospel with them. That is going to transform the whole of Russia if American Christians will come to our assistance.
 Rev. MT. Fetler spoke on The Crisis of Christianity at the morning ser vice.

Send them something better than ammunition to kill send them the gos- pei, said Rev. William FetIer the great leader of the Russian Baptists, in 8 stirring address on the Crisis of Russia at the Sunday evening service at the Central Baptist church. Rev. MT. Fetler supplies yesterday for Rev. Joel B. Slocum, D. D., who preached in his old pulpit in Brooklyn, N. Y. Rev. MT. FNetler graphically told of his struggle to spread the gospel among his people. of his arrest by the Rus sian officials, of his near exile into Siberia, of his unexpected delivery from prison, which he says was brought about through the prayers of his people. and of how he was allowed to come over to this country in lieu of life of hardship in the barren plains of Sibera. All this happened just two years ago. I have never ceased to be- lieve that the gospel is the greatest power in the world, said the speaker. He went on to speak of the true Chris tian church. Show me a jellyfish backbone in a church and I will show you where a true Christian church has ceased to exist. He spoke of the trans fguration of a mans life after Christ enters.
 In Russia few men are educated in the Christian ministry, said Rev. MT. Fetler. The people are but peasants with 1eW acres or lanQ. Lney open their Bibles, not freely as you do, but behind closed doors and there is a man just outside the door watching for the police so that he may warn those within. They are uneducated, hardly able to read the word of God.
 They want others saved, too. They ever drag the people from the streets into the room where their services are held. It was while in the midst of his work as leader of a small Ba rAjst congregation that Rev. MT. FTetler was arrested and ordered exiled to Siberia. He made ready for his journey to that land from which he would never re- turn, so it seemed to him then. Inside the prison office they took everything he owned. even his watch. allowing him to carry only a small bundle of clothing. He was not even allowed to speak to his wife nor bid her and his three months old child good bye. He was then led to a cell wherein were four criminals.

All Trolleys Lead To

be attached to the remnant of troops still on the border
 It is of some interest to speculate on the possible effect of the soldier vote on the result in this state if all the military organizations which made up the body of troops from this state re- mained intact at the Mexican line and did not vote.
 On the supposition that Governor Holcomb was near the mark when he estimated there were 2,000 voters among the soldiers it will be seen that their vote was of material importance.
 In the two batteries, which are now at the border, there are 270 men. How many of this number are voters it is impossible to say. The election com missioners will not question the right of any soldier to the ballot. If the en- tire number present themselves at the ballot box Colonel Avery and Colonel Cheney will not offer an objection. Af- rewards the election officials in the towns will pass on the vote Of the soldiers and if any vote who are not enrolled as electors in their home towns, their votes will not be counted.
 There have been suesses as to the number of men in the two batteries who are entitled to vote. The number has been placed as high as 75 per cent. of the total number of men and others have said that not more than one-half the total number have the right to ex- ercise the franchise It will be thus seen that the vote of the two batter ies will not be likely to affect the re suit in the state. It is barely possi- bIe that if the vote of the electors, among the men of the Branford bat tery was not taken. it would have a local effect in the election of repre- sentatives. In Stamford, an effect-at least a determining one-wOuld not be apparent if the members of the bat tery in that town did not vote.

One of the smallest family of pup pies that one would wish to see were born last week at the. summer home of Mr. and Mrs. Roughsedge at the Golden Spur. Valentine, their dainty little black Pomeranian dog. gave birth to four tiny black puppies, two males and two females, that, when they were two days old. only weighed two ounces each. the four exactly. one half pound. It seems a-most impos- sible that puppies so small could live but they are all well and thriving wonderfully.
 from valuable prize winning stock and Mrs. Roughsedge has taken many prizes with her Pomeranians at the principal shows of the country. These four black puppies that are so small will. without a doubt, find their way to the dog shows in the future.

Eastern Point Road Opened.

Thames street, Groron, has been cleaned off and opened to the public all the way to Eastern Point. Satur- day morning saw the lasr of the work completed so far as cement work is concerned. Men are at work on the shoulders and it will take about two weeks to complete them. The ques- ton of sidewalks along Thames street will be a more or less bothersome one as there isn't room for them even on one side of the road. Is is supposed that several changes will be made in order that walks may be laid when the borough gets ready for them later.
