He was a seminary mate of the late

“v. c. J. Moon tut-ck- Mormonism: ‘
Defense by” Elder liability.

Holly's Hall, Long Ridge. was the
cone of an interesting debate but
right, on Mormonism. between Rev. C.
l. Moon, pastor of the. Long Ridge
.longregutional Church and George W.
iobcley. of the Providence Branch of
Saints. The hall was packed With pea
lie and many ways on the outside eag-
:r to catch the words of the speakers.
flvcn the roof was covered with in
.crected people. ,

It was planned to have three judges
.vbo were to give a decision after the
speakers had finished. but Mr. Moon
raised a strenuous objection and no
ieeision was rendered. The result was
that some were of the opinion that
Mr. Robeley had scored the most
pointc and others were confident that
.n the event of n dicecion being given
it would have been to Mr. Moon.

Mr. Moon took the agreesive aide,
nickiiig flnwa in the Mormon religion,
while Mr. Robeiey confined himself to
iefendiug the religion of his choice.
it many times during the debate the
uterestc was very intense and each
weaker was given liberal applause.

A few of the Nor'walk Saints attend.

Suffering with an attack of enuua on

a dark, lowcring and cloudy day one
frequently hears the expression "1

which have been read and others
which may not have been. There may
be novels, histories, tales of adventure.

It may deal with foreign relations or

one. and it is of vital interest because
the "daily newspaper"

Then we have the "social doings.

young children and discovered ill in a
aqunlid apartment. With all the "char.
11y" about the centers of population
these things exist, and are almost daily
unearthed. There is the story of the
disappointed lover afiempting suicide,
the elopemcnt of a young couple, all
containing their share of emotion. pa-
thos and humor. Near the bottom of
the pages can be found 11 few lines an-
nouncing the King of England has
done this or that. the Kaiser thinks (-10
and so. or the Czar will travel in an
armored train to some remote point of
his realm. 0f little interest to some.
but of great moment to others are
these matterof-fact announcements.

Perhaim there is n flaring headline
of a battle between warring conn-
lrles. Someone has a friend in one of
the armies, still another has traveled
in one of the countries. the story in-

memory perhaps of the topography of
the country. perhaps to keep posted on

world what has happened. There is

And while on the subject of women,

how often does one see a woman pur
chase a newspaper? Rarely. They
wait for the head of the house to brim;

intz edition is usually léft by a news-
boy at the house while the breakfast

11ons to be found ‘from across the

season.

So are the conditions of life set forth
in the “daily novel" by the various
publications of the country. in its coi-
umns are to be found characters such
as Dickens has portrayed to his 1m-
mortal memory. How many times in
reading these accounts of happenings
one can see a David Copperfield. a Mr.
Pickwick. the Uriah Heaps. and the
llombeys. They are there, and readily
appear to the reader if the same cons

using a fli'il‘rlllililt 1' that is attended the.
.onding of a novel. in fuel, the enjoy“
mom of reading devolves upon ono's
mood. and if one desires to "read“ the
time passes. but if one desires to read
understandingly. and ponder over what
is read then does the great daily new;-
paper appear in its literary sense. and
appeal. to its reader as the "daily
novel."

THE CASE SETTLED.

A settlement was reached late yes-
terday afternoon in the case of Wll‘
liam P. Jones, of Stamford, against
his sister, Mary J. Jones. and others.
The defendants are to pay the plain-
tiffs $1.500 by the agreement entered
into. Jones sued to compel the trus-
tees under his mother's will to turn
over to him the personal estate.
