ate of the Berlin Congregational church and preached his first sermon The subject was drawn from the nine teenth, twentieth and twenty-first verses of the first chapter of the book of the prophet Ezekiel.
 The pastor said that the wheels and the spirit which animated them typ flied the material and spiritual things of life. The modern mechanical in ventions and devices such as the loco-. motive,~ steamboat, telegraph, mines, tunnells and bridges represented the material side of things and were like unto the wheels; these things are right and for the welfare of mankind, but these things are useless unless animated by the spirit of the living creature, which typified the spirit of the Almighty, the possession of which must be considered the ultimate end of mankind.

move, unable to utter a single word. A strange something seemed to en- velop and stif1e them.
 Recovering consciousness to a ter- tain degree one of them bounded sud denly forward bringing the other lads instantly to their feet. They knew not what it could be but were sen sible of some uncanny power which they cannot explain. Agitated eX- clamatons were whispered-'What is 1t? What can it be? Oh pshaW! it's nothing! Then an oppressive stiffness ensued, soon broken by a soft rust ling-perhaps caused by the move ments of the ghost. Perhaps it was only the rustling of the leaves, but be that as it may, this did not oc- cur to their greatly confused minds. The only thought that did occur to them was safety first.' With unbe- Hevable velocity the place was left far behind. If one could judge from the expression and cold precipitation on their tense white faces, they un- doubtedly passed through a terrible and agonizing ordeal.

 'Who said that phantoms do not roam the dark recesses of the neigh boring woods of the vicinity? If we were to ask the three young, and might say, courageous lads, who, as is their general custom, sat on the solitary oaken bench in the dark shadows of the naples on Grove Hill last night, they would vigorously in form us that ghosts and phantoms do exist.
 "As the strains of popular songs is- sued forth in trembling tremors from their lusty lungs, a strange fear seemed to grasp them. It seemed as if the presiding spirit of the place was rising in protest. Their song ended abruptly. There was a pause. Then intense silence. All backs stiff fened With a start.

 Terry-Powers Wedding
 The wedding of Miss Helena Pow CTS and John Terry, both of Maple street, took place on Thursday, &C., today by the young lady's mother, Mrs. James F. Powers. The latter didn't wish to make any statement when questioned as to where the cere- rnony was performed and the bride couldn't be located.
 Mrs. Terry was teacher in the Pe- quonock schools until the close of the term. Her husband is employed as Hneman.
 R. R. Borrows Coaches.
 A special train of thirty-six coaches. drawn by two engines, passed through here this morning. The cars were borrowed by the New Haven rosX from other railroads to take the place of the coaches required for the trans portation of the National Guard to the border.
 The company admits it will be short of cars for the holiday rush and some difficulty will probably be experienced in keeping the service up to the stan dard during the week of July 4th.

 AT UNION SERVICE
Rev. Walter E. Lanphear to
 Preach for SalOonleSS Nation CARRIER ON NEW ROUTE
Sunday in the Churches-Terry- Powers Wedding Announced-Bto. Train of Borrowed COaches-Three Go to Jail-Other Matters

With Rev. Walter E. Lanphear as the speaker mem bers of the Protestant churches of the town will gather to- morrow evening In the Congregational church for the first union temperance meeting of the yeear. Pastors of the various churches have completed ar rangements for the session and they expect that it will attract a large con- gregatiOn.
 The ministers deny that the address of MT. Lanphear will constitute the firing of the first gun in the campaign to make Plainville a no-icense town. They expect to be active in the inter- est of temperance locally before the annual town meeting takes place in October but tomorrows meeting they do not anticipate will have any direct connection with their campaign.
 Rev. MT. Lanphear is secretary of the Connecticut Temperance union and Is an earnest advocate of pro- hibition. He is making tour in the interests of the saloOnless nation and his address here will deal more with the work that is being done to banish John BarleycOrn from the nation than with local conditions.

The annual meeting of the Berlin Village Improvement society was held in the library last evening. The fol- lowing officers were reelected for the ensuing year: President, Francis Deming; vice president, Rev. $. A. Fiske; secretary and treasurer, E. E. Honiss. Committees were appointed . as follows: Soliciting, chairman, Ma 9 jor Frank l.. Wilcox, Mrs. Anna Saw age and Mrs. B. K. Field; executive, Major F. L. Wilcox, chairman, Miss Emily Savage, G. F.

 The advisibility of having Worth ington village created into borough was discussed at length and the, fol- lowing were appointed a committee to present a report on the matter at a later meeting: Chairman, Francis Deming, Colonel Charles M. Jarvis, Major Frank Wilcox, Mrs. J. B. Smith and Miss Emily Brandegee.

 The meeting decided there is con- siderable room for improvement on the conditions of the sidewalks along the Ridge and also dwelt for some time on the need of gutters when the new concrete road is finished. State Highway Commissioner Bennett wanted the town to furnish $3, 900 for the conetruction of gutters at the time the new road was proposed. the consensus of opinion about town is that this would be an unreason- able thing to do in view Of the fact the street is now a trunk highw,>y for formerly suitable cOhhl"r gutters. ran the length of the street, The street was taken from the towns ju- risdiction and made a state highway and the feeling is that the highway department should replace the gut ters.
