m,
vioea~thare will be a meeting for men
only, at four o'clock in the afternoon,
to which all men are invited. It is an-
ticipated that this service will be one
of the most inspiring of the day. Last
evening, observed as Sunday
of any weekday service since this
movement started. Again, the chit-i
dren’a choir proved an inspiration,
while the pinging of Miss Siauson was
enjoyed by all. All the pastors of the
diflerent churches. identified with this
movement. were on the platform and.
by their presence and words. contrlbw
uted to the interest oi’ the occasion."

As an argument for a more frequent
. and better trolley service through
i this plhce, The Sentinel representative ;
150 s
. was informed this morning that
fares were registered on the 7 o'clock
car from here last evening. The pas-
sengers were packed in closer titan
sardines, and many of those entering
and leaving had to use the front in
trance, an it was impossible to‘ crowd
onto the rear platform. The trolleys,
with but one or two extra trips at
certain hours of the day. run every
forty minutes. which is the same
.schedula in vogue twelve or fifteen
lyears ago, and residents and patrons
:of' the line here believe they should
have better service. On Thursday af-
ternoon the "extra" car, one the veter-
ans on the line, which goes only to
iRowayton. jumped the track at Jacob
18. Rummd'n corner, and tied up the
lilne. and delayed traffic for about an
ihow.
