‘- THE EVE11NGGAZ1~1TE
Death of Rev. Edwin Hall. _
The fol-lowing obituary found in the
Bulletin, of Friday,
June 24th, has been received in N01-
walk. The subject of the notice was a
N01 walk youth of unblemished in-
teg1ity, and one whose. life since child-
hood has been irreproachable. His
father, beside whom he is now laid,
was long the faithful and beloved pas-
tor of the First Congregational church
in this town, and one to whose memo: y
this ancient settlement may indeed do
His fondly remembered son,
Edwin, was bu1ied, Monday,
_family plot' 1n the lovely cemetery at
Auburn Close by the Hall grounds
rest the remains of New Canaan’s dis-
tinguished son, Rev. D1. James
Richards, and a little distance further
on the form of Gov. Wm. H. Seward’s
nephew, little Charlie Bostwick, who
was one of the three school boys who
were drowned in Norwalk harbor on
the evening of J uhe, 7, 1873.
“The sweet remembrance of the just.
Shall flourish when he sleeps in dust."
“Rev. Edwin Hall, of NO. 6 Park
avenue, died, Thursday afternoon,
after five years of failing health and
partial blindness, the cause of death
being acute nephritis.
He was the eldest son of the late Dr.
Edwin Hall, who was for many years
professor of theology in Auburn Theo-
logical seminary. He was born in
Middlebury, Vermont, in 1829 and was
graduated from Yale college and East
Windsor (now Hartford) Theological
seminary and during his seminary
course was called to the pastorate of
the Congregational church at New
Hartford Centre, Conn., where he was
pastor for 16 years. After that he was
pastor of the Rosendale, Wis , Congre-
gational church and the Presbyterian
church in Charleston, W. Va. The
breaking down of his health compelled
him to give up, five years ago, the last
charge which he: had at the Presby-
terian church of Conewango, Cattar-
augus county, in this State.
His life was distinguished by unsel-
fish devotion to the work of the minis-
tr y and care for the welfare of others
which continued even when feeble
health obliged him to give up pastoral
work.
Besides his wife he leaves surviving
him one brother, Lyman Hall, of Skan-
eateles and two sisters, Mrs. Frances
.13.. Pierce,- an_d.- Miss ,MaryR. Hall, of;

Last week in this column was record-
ed the sad news of the death of young
Ambrose White, who was called away
on the eve of a four years course at Yale.
This week we have the pleasant duty
of congratulating Samuel F. Bassett
another Wilton boy who by dint of a
good brain and hard consistent work
has graduated from old Yale at the
head of the large class of ’98, and as
class orator delivered a stiring oratio n-
on “The Force of an Idea,” at the
commencement exercises on Monday.
There is not one of the Wiltonites who
know and respect the quiet assuming
young fellow who left us four years ago,
who fails to take a personal interest in
the high honor which he so deservedly
won. We were not unprepared for his
success as he has succeeded in captur-
ing high honors each year. In a recent
conversation with the writer he drew
attentiou to the fact that while his
home had net been in the old town
since his first college year, that he
should always take pride 1n being a
representative of' Wilton, and true to
his word “Samuel E. Bassett ofWilton,
Conn., goes forth from his Alma Mater
to gain further honors in the greater
school of the wide, wide world. Good
luck to you Sam, wherever your duty
calls you, there shall we look for you,
and wish you the honor and success
that we know you deserve.

MY NEIGHBOR AS MYSELF. ..
This Rule Most Generously Observed by a
Pennsylvania Dian.
Addressing his congregation at one
time, Henry Ward Beecher told of a
man‘who had always been lucky, and ,-
who bought a farm in Pennsylvania on
which he discovered very large oil de-
posits. Another man, who had work-
ed very hard all his life to save five or
six thousand dollars, thought he would ,
fortune in oil also.
and began to bo,re but seemed to strike
articles innumerable until his money
was all exhausted. Saturday night was
coming and his men were clamoring
for money, but he had none to give
them. They had struck solid rock in
their borings, and there was no pos-'
sibllity of the poor man getting capi-
tal enough to proceed until he should
strike 011. So in this unfortunate ex-
tremity he wen-t to his lucky neighbor
and told him his pitiable condition;
begging him to buy the farm.
“It‘ls all I have," said he, “and it
has taken me a lifetime to get the few
thousanddollars which I have spent
and lost on this farm.”
The neighbor protested that he did
not want the land; that he had all he
needed; but the poor man pressed so
hard that he finally succeeded in get-l
ting a. check for six thousand dollars
for his place. ‘
This was Saturday. The unfortunate
, man was able to pay his workmen, and
was happy to be out of the disastrous
venture. But the purchaser of the
farm requested the men to keep right
on boring in the rock, and said he
would pay them. Hardly four days had
passed before they struck oil in abund—
ance; and, when the former owner of
the farm heard of this, it seemed as
though he couldn’t get to the pur-
chaser of the farm quickly enough, to
see if he could buy it again.
“But I told you I did not want it, "
said the buyer. “You urged me to take
'it, telling a pitiful story of losing your
hard-earned capital. I took it under
protest.”
But the man p. "ended and expostu-
' lated; and the buyer finally sold the
farm back again for just what he had
given.‘
“Now ” said Mr. Beecher, "‘all in this
congregation who would have done the
same thing, rise.”
Not a person stood—Success.
MOTOR IN A SCARF PIN.
It Is the Small." Electrical Machine in
the worm. '
,The smallest electric motor in the
'world has been :built .by D. Geodin of
McKinney, Texas, ”whose business as a
watchmaker has trained him to handle
delicate machinery with the exquisite
care required in making a. meter that"
movies with all the regularity of a his
machine, and yet is so small that its
owner wears it as a scarfpin.
The motor is so small that it does
. not cover a. silver dime, and it weighs
only 9- 100 of an ounce. The armature
is about the size of a small slate pencil.
The front of the motor is of gold, high- :
1y polished, and- the commutor seg-
ments are also of the some metal so
that viewed frOm a little distance the
scarfpln has the” appearance of a very
valuable and mus-r curiously designed
pin. It is only when standing near to
Goodln when' he is wearing the scarf-
pln that its nature can be discovered.
, The first .thing to attract attention
is the buzzing of the machine, which,
by means of a current obtained from a
small chloride of silver battery carried
in the vest pocket, is kept in operation
at a high rate of speed, and With a
noise like a small nest of hornets. . .
The field magnets of the little motor
are made of two thicknesses of No. 22
sheet iron scraped down and polished.
These are held together with gold
screws and wound with No.20 silk-
covered wire. The armature is of the
four-pole type and is wound with No.
36 wire.
The little brushes are of marvelous
thinness, having been constructed of
c0pper, hammered down with much
patience and care. There is a small
gold switch on a black rubber base,
made with a pin, to beworn on the
lapel of the vest.-_-.NQW York Herald.
