CHRIsTIAN SCIENCE

CHRISTIAN SNlENNE
 The subject of the Lesson-Sermon will be Adam and Fallen Man.
 The Golden Text Is taken from Galatians 6:3: If a man think him. self to be something. when he IS nothing, he deceiveth himselt.
 Selections from the Bible include the following passages from Malachi 3:16-1S: Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another; and the Lord hearkened, and heard 1t. and a book of rememberance was written before him for them that feared the Lord. and that thought upon his name.
 And they shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts. in that day when l make up my jewels; anl l will spare them. as a man. spareth his own son that serveth him. Then shall ye return. and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not"
 Corrolative readings from the Christian textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy include the following passage taken from page 171:4: "Through discernment of the spiritual opposite of materiality, even the way through Christ, Truth. man will reopen with the key of di- vine Science the gates of Paradise which human beliefs have closed. and will find himself unfallen, up- right, pure, and free, not needing to consult almanacs for the probabil- tiles either of his life or of the wea- ther, needing to study brainology to learn how much of man he is."

She local firms assets are described as frozen and in danger of waste in the application brought through Assistant Attorney General H. Rog- CT Jones.

 Police said Tommy Hayes was q leader of the band. They said he formerly belonged to the gang of Fred Burke. who recently was sem tenced in Michigan to life imprison- ment for killing a policeman. Hayes they said, had organized former members of the Burke gang and the Shelton gang of southern Illinois into one desperate band to spread terror throughout several states by holdups and abductions.
 Among the crimes which the men were suspected of were the kidnap- ings of Dr Isaac D. Kelley, Jr, of St Louis. Fred Blumer of Monroe, Wis, and James Hackett of Chi cago: and the killing of Mrs Cora Garrison during an attempt to kid nap her husband. wealthy Peoria. Ill, gambler. Britt and Connor once were arrested and tentatively identified as the slayers of Mrs
 Chief Moody said the raid had been planned for some time and had been delayed until all the men could be. caught together.
 Moody said he sent his entire force of more than 100 men into the drive against kidnapers after Governor Emmerson gave him or ders to drive every hoodlum out of Illinois,

ago but at the present time the sur face of the road is in very poor shape.
 It is said that the only sensible way to repair the road is to rip up the present worn out cement and lay an entirely new pavement. To do this over the stretch of highway from West Main street to Fort Hill would cost about $100,000, 1t Is fig ured.
 With this figure in mind. Senator Lawlor endeavored to have the state include the highway in its trunk line system. In this way the ex- pense of repairing the road would have fallen upon the shoulders of the state and the city of Waterbury would have benefited handsomely. The roa dway was at one time in the trunk line system but was taken off the list a number of years ago.
 Highway Commissioner John A. Macdonald, however, apparently sensing the need for new pavement on the Waterville road, quietly op- posed the bill of Senator Lawlor. It Is said that it was his opposition, pitted against the insistence of Sen- ator Lawlor, that won out.
 The roads, rivers and bridges committee has decided, 1t is learned hearing on the bill but. instead. let the matter die a natural death so as to escape any controversy. Senator Lawlor contends that the roadway is an important part Of the state highway system and should be supported by the state rather than by the city of Waterbury.

Cilnack Furniture
 House Gutted In
 Spectacular Blaze
Starts in Elevator Shaft and Runs Through Building in Quick Time Customers Flee as Clerk Shouts Warning Nearby Business Houses in Peril

The employees of the store, it was stated, had time to remove all books and accounts of the firm. Much of the furniture on the third floor of the building, it was stated this morn ing, had been sold and was being held for later delivery. Thousands of dollars worth of furniture, much of which had not been uncrated, was in the cellar of the store and while 1t is believed the fire did not reach it, tons of water entered the base ment and this Is also a total loss. The fire caused great alarm to mer- chants in the neighborhood who feared the fire would spread to other buildings and they were ready to move out their records on a mo- ment's notice. This was not neces- sary as the fire was kept well within the walls of the structure on fire.
 The building was erected about 35 years ago and was one of the fin- est business blocks in the borough. Since the time of it's erection it has housed 8 furniture business, first conducted by F. w. Tolles who dis posed of the business to Walter H. Twitchell. MT Twitchell sold to Wal ter c. Gilnack who died a few months ago. His estate sold it to the Carlson company. It was reported this morning that the building would probably not be rebuilt for the pres ent at least.

 Ten men were taken in the raid late yesterday on a fiat on Broad way, the principal business street in East St Louis. Three of them were released immediately and an- other, Dewey Sullivan, was turned over to city police.
 The men held by the state were William McQuillion, Jack Britt. Howard Lee. Ed Hawks, Tommy Hayes and Thomas C0nnor.
 Acting under orders from Gov ernor Emmerson that "the kidnap- CTS must be stamped out" state po- lice surrounded the block in which the men were gathered, apparently for some sort of conference. The block was cleared of all pedestrians and automobiles and roped off.
 A hotel entrance across the street was blocked. Machine guns were mounted at four street corners and on several roofs.
