interest of each and every one in united

of abolishing the saloon. In conclusion,

which consisted of Fred Force, tenor;

sang sweetly the inspiring anthem,
“Jubilate,” by Schilling. Mrs. Ross
sang feelingly Schubert’s solo, “Jesus,
Lover of my Soul,” and Frank Comstock
presided at the organ. In the evening
an earnest sermon was preached by Rev.
Mr. Perkins, of Bridgeport.

THE BEST RELIGIOUS WORK.

Rev. A. S. Bavauagh Shows That It Is
Done Outside the Pulpit anuulitar.

Rev. A. S. Kavansgb had large congre-
gations yesterday, and preached to them
in the morning on a “Personal Satan,”
and in the evening gave them “A lifes-
sage from the Virgin Mary to the
Church.” These sermons indicated the
lines along which this pastor proposes to
preach. with the purpose of awakening
the church members to their duties and
opportunities, and sinners to the necessity
ofacompliance with the requirements
of the gospel. The Virgin‘s message was
based on her words uttered at the marri-
age in Cans of Galilee, when she said
unto the servants, "Whatsoever he saith
unto you, do it.’f Mr. Kavanagh very
clearly showed that the best religious
work was not in preaching and exhort-
ing, but in earnest endeavor outside the
pulpits and altars, in a willingness to em.
braca the first and apparently least on
porlunity to advance the cause of Christ.
He cited many instances where such ap-
parently insignificant beginnings had
ended in the grandest results. lie show-
ed that implicit obediencc was required
when the command to do came from
such unquestionable authority, and that
nothing would be required but that
could be accomplished. His closing ex-
hortation for the faithful to obey the mes-
sage was very earnest and forcible, and
received the Methodist response that
the logic of his argument and the power
of his appeal was felt. by those commis-
sioned tothe work in the church. The
music at both the services was very ap
propriate, consisting of solos by Mrs.
Salter and Mr. Andrews, selections by
the choir and very hearty congrcgational
singing.

HECTOR WATKINS~ SERMON.

A Practical Discourse from the Story of
Iiavlil‘e Victory Over Goliath.

Atilrace (hutch, yesterday, llcv. S.
H. Watkins preached upon the "iiciinion
of Chriswndom," his trxt being St.
I.1llreix., 7.0, and ai.,‘.21l. A baptismal
service was held during the Sunday
school session, the rector ofllcintimi. Mill
conducting itin an impressive inuuncr.
In thocvoning Mr. Watkins gave an nd~
dress npoe ”Young Champions of the
Oman." lie look for his subplot, tho
story of David's victory over lioliath.
llo said he was not surprised at the
courage shown by David in going out w
inset.ihogisnl; but he was more than
surprised that he rhould go after the
traiment ho had mivlnl upon announ’
clng,hla intention of so doing. There
was the ridicule of his own brothers, the
tennis Mothers, and the doubts of King
Haul. llut throwing aside all this, he
went, trusting in Cod, and «wreaths the
l’hllistlnc. There are now the some
trials to be endured. (bouncing, Mr.
Watkins said that it was not surprising
that there were in» few young people
who do not take any pert whatever in
the battles of lrulay against the great
giants of lathhllsm, ion-mpvranrss and
other leading evils lleoyof the youn-
ger gensrsiiongommeet in battle any
of these giants singleahanded, there are
the tears tennis which David received to
be contended with. The room urged
his hearers usitodo like Saul, when he
offered enemy David in armor. not to
rely wholly upon civil law which is can
fled outby others. but to meet these
giants boldly as a Christian. He con-
cluded by stating first as Jesus, when
tempted, feuedlnthescripluresemeane
by which be overcame his temptation, is
themslectueybsfrmndths weapon by
which we only win a View.

keepers. Drinking at home was bad
enough, Hr. Beard said. but the "stand
lug up drinking of distilled damnation,"
was worse. He said the saloon was the
ridge of vice, crime and disorder, tbenest
of corruption in public affairs. The best
saloon does the moat harm to the best
man and is responsible for the beginnings
of intemperance, the essence of insanity
and the advocate and originator of vio-
lent and unnatural human destruction.
The more respectable a saloon gets the
more dangerous it becomes. It is moral-
ly wrong to exchange money for a license
and license does not limit the saloons.
To license a saloon means to respect it,
while no license means to cut of! the sale
of liquor at the open bar. According to
the decision of the Supreme Court of the
United States no citizen ought to sell
liquor. You can’t get something out of
nothing, he said. In this town $20,000 is
received for licenses and $250,000 spent for
police, jails, etc. He said the State Law
and Order League caused 205 arrests for
illegal liquor selling last year and four-
fiftbs of them were convicted. Benched
why Norwalk could not do the same. In
closing, Mr. Beard made an earnest appeal
for those who love home, health and hap-
piness to vote at the coming election for
no-license.

THE PROJECT MEETS WITH VERY
LITTLE OPPOSITION.

dll’l Special Town Meeting—Glenwood
Avenue Amptsd.

The special town meeting. at the Town
House, Saturday afternoon, for the pur~
pose of authorizing the cutting of brush
along the town highways, the widening
of the Washington street drawbridge.
and the acceptance of Glenwood avenue,
was largely attended, upwards of three
hundred voters being present. Town
Clerk Herbert R. Smith called the meet-
ing to order, and R. H. Rowan was
elected moderator.

A motion was made that 8200 be appro-
priated for cutting the brush and weeds
along the highways. It was stated that
the general statutes coveredihis, and im-
posed a penalty for failure to comply
with the law. The motion was therefore
withdrawn, and a resolution, offered by
George W. Craw, that the selectmen be
authorized'to enforce the law, prevailed.

The subject of widening the Washing-
ton street bridge, easterly from the draw,
was then discussed. Miner D. Randall
offered a resolution appropriating $1,000,
or as much of that sum as might be
necessary, for the repairs. He spoke of
the narrowness of the bridge being a
menaoeto public safety, and informed
the meeting of the frequent blockadcs
that never there. He cited one instance
where eleven wagons were stalled at
once. .

Edwin O. Keeler stated that theim-
provement was much needed. He hoped
that in time the State would
assume control of the bridges. He was
of the opinion theta bill to that effect
could be gotten through the next legisla-
ture.

Selectman Tallmadge Baker was also
of the opinion that such a bill could be
passed.

George S. Bell hoped that such a state
of affairs could be reached, but it mused
doubtful to him. He thought the bridge
should be improved at once.

George W. Cram thought the discus-
sion was not to the point at all. The
resolution offered was for the expendi-
ture of $1,000 to do something The im-
provement wouldbe a great benefit to
East Norwalk, whose population was
3,000 and was rapidly growing. They
had done it all by their own thrift and
industry, and deserved great credit for
the wonderful progress of that portion of
the town. Since the bridge had grown
toonerrow to accommodate the traflic
and was really dangerous, the fact was
apparent that it had been made so by the
State and the selectmen, who granted the
Tramway company certain rights. They
had a right to them, but it would be very
little trouble to widen the bridge and
benefit all. He favored immediate re~
pairs and the widening of the structure
atonce, both in favor of East Nowaik,
in the interest of progress and in the in-
tcrcst of the whole town.

J. it. Marvin said that a new struc—
ture was inevithblc, but the present
bridge would last for some years yet.
So far, this year, he stated, the eclect-
mcn and the Tramway company have
laid out about SUMO. The splice bud
been rccappcd and the sitar-lure rendered
safe, where it had been dangerous. The
present sidewalk could be utilized as a
mrtion of the roadbcd, as the girders ran
dermis and supported it, while a sidewalk
might be added to the north side. The
bridge would have to be repaired any-
way, and it would cost but very little
more to make the improvement. The
sidewalk planks needed replacing, and it
would be cheaper to make the repairs
than to pay for a broken an ls.

Hr. chlcr reiterated Mr. mum's and
Mr. Bell's statements.

Bipllellststedlhettho town was en.
titled to fifty feet right of way, and
there would be no difficulty with adjoin-
ing property-owners, as the fifty feet
they were entitled to would not be ever.
run in melting the required changes.

The question was called for. and the

motion was carried. A standing rote
was then taken, to have the matter
strh-tly legal.

The question of accepting illcnwood
avenue was settled by the acceptance of
the street by a unanimous vote.

ADAMS HAD TWO WIVES.

 

‘No. I Says She was Married to Him in
Port Chester September n, 1386.

That Hiram L. Adams, who oommit~
ted suicide in Norwalk two weeks ago,
had two wives at the time he committed
the deed, there is no doubt.

Wife No. 1 has been heard from. She
lives in Mianus, and in a communication
to the Greenwich Son‘s, last week, gives
some information which clearly goes to
show that the suicide has been living a
dual lifc. Among other things Wife No.
i, or Mrs. lndumora Adams as she signs
herself, says she was married to Adams
at Port Chester, on September llth, H30,
and that a daughter seven years 0111 sur-
viv. 3 him.

Mrs, Adams first saw an account of
her husband's death in the Greenwich
News, and she was much surprised to
find that his remains were taken to that
place and buried without llt'l‘ being noti~
tied.
