ably assisted by the Rev. W. H. Hub-
bard. of South Norwalk. to whom is
due a large share of the credit for the
building of this church. all the manner

Rev. w. w. T. Duncan’s I'htcresting
Discourses Yesterday.
The present age is notable for
change. New ways of doing. new
methods and new ideas are applied in
every thing that makes progress and
keeps pace. with improvements. The
presentation of scriptural truth and di-
vinc intentions by exposition was the
very interesting and refreshing form
that Rev. W. W. ’i‘. Duncon adopted
yesterday morning in delivering his
sermon on “Two Revelations of
God." The discourse was expressive
of the great need of the gospel dealing
with the present. that Christ's teach-
ings denmnd right relations witn men
as Well as with God. The evening pre-
lude on "The Debate 'on (no. Philip—
pines" was pointed out and clear in
criticism of the violation of duty on
the part of the nation's representa-
tives who allowed despicable partisan-
ship to interfere in the consideration
of the nation's great problems. The
one regret Is that the congressmen
and senators were not present to list
ten to it. Rev. Mr. urincan's ilvc min-
ute prelude talks at the eventing ser-
vice are complimentarily spoken of
by all who hear them.

to whom they offered a watch. appar~
ently a gold one. for $15. The Italian
looked at it and said that he would
give two dollars. The vendors then
wanted at least $7. but the deal was
finally consummated by the Italian
paying 32 and inkling the watch.
The purchaser then went about show-
ing his now watch. One of his friends
saw it and said it wasn‘t worth two
cents. This set the itallnn to thinkins.r
and he made complaint to Detective
Smith. who found Abramovitz and
placed him under arrest and took him
to the detective burcnu. where Sergeant
licnnchy put, him through the “third
degree."

THOMASTON. Conn. January 27—~
The investigation of the assault and
robbery of Edward Miller. the Water-
bury pedoier. who was found in a dying
condition. Just south of Reynolds‘
bridge. on the highway between here
and Waterbury, yesterday afternoon.
has been continued vigorously and
carefully by county and town authori-
ties. today. Coroner Higgins came from
Winstcd this morning to assist Medi-
cal Examiner Ferguson in the inquiry
which was started yesterday. and Sher.
li'f Kuuffman and Constable Kilner
have been busy all day In the search
fer the assailant. The latter is believ-
ed to have driven the peddlcr's team
from the scene of the crime to Bristol.
where he boarded a trolley car to New
Britain.
Wiliium Butler and Russell McBir-
ncy. both of Thomnston. are thought to
have been the last persons to see the
pcddler before he was attacked. They
were driving to Waterbury from Thom-
uston. yesterday afternoon. and passed
Miller on the road near the Frost
bridge. A little beyond that place they
passed a man going towards Thomas-
ton. It is thought possible that this
man was Miller's assailant. The de-
scription they give corresponds with
that given by William Halpin. who
lives on the Plymouth Hill road. and
saw the pedler's covered wagon driven
oust his house with the horse at a gal-
lop, at about 2:45 in the afternoon. Hal-
piu says that the ship doors of the vehi-
cle were swinging open. The driver
was a tall. slim man. with a smooth
face. and wore a white handkerchief
around his tanned up coat collar. It. is
believed that the man drove along the
range of hills passing around Plymouth
to Bristol. A report received here from
Bristol. says that he was seen to hitch
his horse there arid board a trolley car.
The load of goods which Miller car—
ried in his wagon weighed probably a
ton. and all of it was thrown out by the
assailant as he drew. furiously away
from the scene of his deed. All along
the highway portions of the load have
been picked up together with torn bits
of checks of the Fourth National Bank.
in Waterbury. where Miller did busi-
ness.
The discovery of Miller‘s skull cap
and soft but by the side of the road.
close to me spot where he was found.
is believed to be evidence that there
was a struggle before he was ovcrpowu
cred. for although he was wounded In
the head. there were no holes either in
the. cup or the hat.
Miller's wife is said to have been a
German. who came to this country a

Rowayton Resident Calls Superintend-

To the Editor of The Sentinel: In a
recent issue of The Sentinel I noticed
the statement by Superintendent Kyle.
of the Connecticut Railway and Light-
ing Company that he would be pleased
to put on an extra car. on the South
Norwnlk line. If some one would Inform
him when It was needed. I would like
to Inform Mr. Kyle. through the col-
umns of your valued paper. that the
residents of Rowuyton think that they
should be shown as much considera-
tion as the South Norwalkers, and as
their money is accepted for a seat.
which they do not receive. they think
Mr. Kyle’s attention should be called
to the fact. The car leaving Gnider‘s
corner at 6:30 this morning contained
forty-four passengers. There Is not
room enough in a car to send over thir-
ty conveniently: and the next car does
not leave until 7:04 a. m. Hoping Mr.
Kyle may give this his consideration.
I remain.
Respectfully.
