day Services in Other Churches.
One thousand people filled the audi-
torium and gallery of Music Hall, last
night, attracted by the announcement
that the Rev. J. T. Winters,pastor of
St. Joseph’s church. weald lecture on
temperance. The large audience augur-
ed well for the total abstinence society
which Mr. Winters is about to organize.
Many Protestants who were present en-
joyed the lecture fully as well asthe
most ardent Catholic. The singing by
, the choir was a feature.
Father Winters is noted for his en.
thusiasm in the temperance cause. Hav
ing seen so much misery and unhappi~
ness caused by drink, his heart and
soul have become enthused with a de-
she to help stem the tide of evils pro~
duced by intemperance. As be related
some of his many experiences he moved
his hearers to tears by the patheti: re~
cite], or caused ripples of laughter in the
audience by the story of some humorous
incident. The lecture produced a pro-
found impression.
The story of drink and its curse was
an old one, :bnt in his hands and told
in his eloquent words it seemed new
once more. He recounted the causes.
that made men drunknrds. Here it was
a thoughtless wife, there a wayward
child; sometimes it was boon compan-
ions, at other times great joy or excess-
ive grief. .
In simple words that made a deep
impression on the moderate drinker as
well as on the man who drinks to excess,
Mr. Winters melted scenes and incident.
of the awful curse which let come
under his notice; of the poor wife with
emaciated face and lollovvcd cl ask; of
ragged and hungry children; of blighted
hopes, ruined homes and early graves.
“Would to God,” In said, "that the
causes were not so numerous. Would
to God the consequences were not so
sad." ‘ " "v

A very large congregation attended
the first of a series of services held last
night in the South Norwalk Congrega-

ed by the committee was rendered most
successfully, the soloists of the evening,
Miss Annabel Nash, soprano; Charles A.
Freeman, violinist, and T. E. Perkins,
organist, singing and playing with their
accustomed skill. The choir sang well
the several anthems assigned them.

At the evening service in Grace

most beautifully expressed by Mr.

mention the fact that Sam Davis, one of

had an offer to ioto Europe and take

from P. saw. Harrison, chemists, 187

All through the Nutmeg Stair-Trolley
.Faed Woe: to be Tapped for House
and Store Lighting in this Vlelntly.
The New York, New Haven and
Hartford Railroad company undoubted-
ly intends to use electricity for every
purpose for which it is available. includ—
inc the hauling of trains. But when
this will be fully accomplished is a mat
ter of uncertainty. About the recent
traffic experiments on the Nantasket
and New Canaan branches, u more re»
cent scheme, and one which, says a des-
paich to the New York Herald, will be
tried at once, is a complete system of el—
cctric lighting for the road.
"Eight plants scattered throngout the
state will furnish lrght, not only for
the railroad stations and signnl towers.-
but for the signal lights, and even, it is
said, for illuminating the tracks.
"The plan is to locate light stations,
built and owned by the company, as is
the one now in operation in Stamford.
This station will supply power for the
lights from Bridgeport to the New York
line, the New Canaan brunch and the
entire Dunbury division. One in Litcli-
field will supply the remainder of the
Berkshire division, and by wiring cross
country, such of the Nungntuck line as
is not reached from New Haven.
“Farmington will be the source of
flow for the Northampton division and
New Imidon for the Shore line, the
other big electric factories being in
Willimziutic, Meridcn, New Haven and
Hartford.
“The Consolidated’s engineers believe
that four are lights properly placed will
light. a mile of straight road so thorough
dent from llllll‘lil‘fl mu-‘vs from which
the block Syfill‘lll cannot insure protec.
tion. The Motions thus established can,
experiments with (‘lt'ttll‘ic locomotives
reach a successful issue and therein a
call for additional power for drawing
trains and for lighting cars.
