Fitch‘s Home and the School Hill.
A bill passed the House yesterday
authorizing the trustees of Fitch's Home
to make Ttiglllllllf‘llh‘ for its government.
and to appoint otlicers to preserve order.
It may not be generally known. but the
transfer of the Home to the state does
not make any change in the trustees of
the institution. They are appointed for
life with authority to appoint their siic~
cessors. "
The bill providing for town instead of
district management of schools was re
jected by the House and passed by the
Sehate. ‘This brought the. matter back
to the House Thursday. A motion to
indefinitely postpone was defeated by a
' vote of 96 to 9:}. The Democrats and

l‘nlou Services at the Congregational
Church. and a Good Sermon by
get. J. H. Ross.
A good congregation found its way to
the Congregational church on Fast Day.
and was well repaid by the earnest and
thoughtful discourse delivered by pastor
Ross. The sermon was delivered ext- m-
pore-and was one of his best. It was a
masterly plea for co-operation in Christ-
ian work. It, was logical. forcible. and
convincing in its influence. lle spoke
most unsparingly of those who spend
more time in building their garden wall
. ,rhigh and round than they do in‘cultivat-
ing the garden. Revs. Delano and Dun-
ning both 5; oke in jealous commenda-
tion of the noble-hearted and clcipicnt
discourse. We give herewith a brief di-
gest of it:
He stated that the scene drawn in such
picturesque. dramatic fashion by Luke.
and also by Mark. pertained to an inter~
view of Jesus with his chosen disciples
on the way from the mount of Transfig-
uration to their headquarters at Caper~
naum. Theyrwere "disputing one with
another in the way, who was the great-
est.“ - The topic was a singular one for
disciples who were under the instruction
of Jesus, and who had been on such a
mount. They lacked the spirit of Jesus
himself, who made a child an eiainple
to them. John‘s report of forbidding
one w'litiswas casting out devils in the
name of the Master was rebuked. Jesus
regarded such a miracle worker. al-
though belonging to the outer circle of
disciples, rather than the chosen com-
pany of apostles. as an ally for himself
and John. and all other disciples. "lie
that is not against. us is for us.“ Mem-
bership in another section ‘of disciples.
domg a kindred work, was the condition
of an ally, not of an enemy.
Mr. Ross amplified the following
points:—
1. Spiritual union among disciples of
Christ-is vital; social and ecclesiastical
union is conditional upon circumstances.
Spiritual union should exist and be man-
ifested as social or ecclesiastical union
wherever possible.
2. Personal grievances. rather than
dislo alty to Christ or failure to do do
real hristisn work. were the unhappy
causes of divisions. among Christians.
“We forbade him because he followed
'not us."
8. Real Christian work was the ser-
vice of the higher to the lower, the
stronger to the weaker. It consisted in
self sacrifice. Christ Ci‘me from God to
us, from heaven to earth. Philanthro-
pistsleave the avenues of wealth and.
go into highways and hedges. Chrisiains
seek the worst sinners and try to save
:them, even those possessed with devils.
Mr. Ross asked for the reasons why
natural allies, the disciples of different
names, do not work more often and
more harmoniously together, and named
prejudice, an abnormal individuality. the
exacting spirit as to the methods to be
employed. and above all, a severe de-
nominationalism. In unfolding the last
point, be quoted Joseph Cook as follows:
“I think I lived twenty five years in
the church. building my nest at one end
of the denominational bough. I read the
literature of one denomination; I heard
the speakers of one denomination: I
became interested in the philanthropies
Ind endeavors of one denomination. My
outlook was through it slit: I built:- in
, nest on one twig. I hope I am as much
attached to that bough as ever, for it
held my cradle; but I am more and more
building my nest now where all the
evangelical boughs come together in the
on. trunk. our common Lord. It is 3.
than. to I man of mature years to be a
more denomination-list.”
In applying the subject, Mr. Ross said
that he desired to at it into concrete
form. Rev. E. P. ammond. the evan-
pilot." a man of marked individuality,
and employed some unusual methods in

In justice to my neighbors and myself.
I=Lriist that you will allow the to siy.
through your columns. that the bridge
rel‘crrcd to has mu“ been burned; and
that. in a fourteen years residence near
.\‘orwalk, 1 have in ver seen the Sllgllli'st
evidence of ill~feeling against me.
It is true. that a suit was brought at
the time of the proposal to build the
bridge. but I believe the community will
bear me out in the statement that no
injury has been done to “fishermen“ or
“others“ by its construction.
I am at a loss to understand how iiny~
one. apparently so well informed. should
have sent such an item to the press will»
out further investigation as to ilie facts
(if‘the case. «
I am glad of this oppoitunity to thank
the residents of .\‘orwalk and its viciu -
ity. both rich and poor, for their univer—
sal kindness and courtesy towards me.
I trust to your sense of justice to se-
cure for this letter a place in your ii~~xi
issue. \‘ery respectfully,
“‘oonnt‘iiv G. LANUDOX.
