D. at one time pastor of the First Presbyterian obaroh in Tyrone aud who at that time preached in Belle- foute on several occasions, and will be glad to learn that alter a turbulent life of a dez- en years or so he was on Monday taken in- to full membership in a Presbytery in New York city. Rev. Farbay went to the Ty- rone shareh in the early nineties and from there wens to the Oxford Street charoh in Philadelphia. While there his wile died and ber death was such a blow to the rev- erend that be took to drink as a solace. His appetite for liquor got the best of him and finding himself drinking to excess he became bis own accuser before the Phildel- phia Presbytery and was dropped from the rolls without a trial. He started outasa lecturer, traveling in many parts of the United States but bis craving for drink overmastered his every good impulse and finally be got so low in the scale of life as to become a tramp and was compelled to beat bis way on freight trains. In that condition he arrived in New York a few years ago and in passing a mis sion one day he beard the singing within. He stopped on the outside and listened and then and there resolved to tarn over a new leaf. He entered the mission and when an opportunity came tod the story of his life and asked the help of those in charge in keeping his new resolution. He was tak- en in charge and from thas day never tonched snother drop of liguor and has lived such a blameless life and did such good work in the city missions that the Preshyters vers willingly took him back into the fold on Monday. >o A Few Nice Carcuis oF Trour.—The WATCHMAN went to press last week before fall reports from all the fishermen who were oat for the opening day were received but in the main, the day proved a disap pointment to the majority of the fisher. men. Those who went to Fishing creek | perhaps had the best luck, aud their catch | was not up to the standard. Oae party of | six, who spent the eutire day there, came home with sixty trous, mostly small ones. be high water may have had more to do with the small catohies than the scarcity of trout, as on Monday ‘T. H. Harter aud a party went to Fishing creek and two or wore of them canght their limis—filty grout each. Whil: there have leen no hig catches made in Spring creek there have been several big trout taken therefrom. On Monday afterncon John Nightbart canght a nineteen inch California troat in Logau’s branch, at the bridge near the black barn, and so bard a fight did it put ap that he broke bis rod. T. Clayton Brown on Monday also made bis first catoh and it was a good one, too; as be landed three trout, each of which was over a foot in length. They were caught [rom the creck opposite the Bush house. From the above it is evident that there are still some trout in the streams and when the conditions become more favorable fish- ermen may have better luck. a DiocesaN ORPHANAGE COMPLETED. —The diosesan orphanage at Summit has been completed and the record achieved in its erection by Bishop Eugene A.
