'brtho church workers, During the year
y 'which closed July 1, tho mortgage in-
iriehtedness was reduced to $1,400, six
' 'Hundred dollars liaving been paid there
on' during tho year. But this Is only
' 6ne of the hints of tho year's successful
work. Every Item of current expense
has been paid in full and there Is an
appreciable balance in ca'ch of tho de
partments of tho church treasury. This
condition Is all the more gratifying
and is all tho more significant in the
face of the general retrenchment that
is of necessity in vogue in this com
' munlty.

P. Trautwoln, J. F. Robinson, G. A.

O. L. Utlcy, all of whom served on the
board of last year, except Mr. Utloy.
A. S. Lcwsley, who retires from the
board and was one of the most efll
cient members of last year's board, de
clined re-election, on account of his
other, numerous duties in connection
'with the church and his private busi
ness. Deacon P. S. Joslln was re-elect-"cd
clerk, an ofllce which he has filled
'with credit for over forty years. A. W.
r Geary was continued as assistant clerk.
The board of ushers for this year
consists of William Ilowclls, George
Avery, Irving Avery, Charles Hnuen
stein, Edward Carter, Evan Williams,
Vassar Jones, Newell Stoddard, Will
iam Shields, Glen Tallman, William
Curnow and Stanley Smith. The ma
jority of these have been in the capac
ity of ushers for Several years, and are
to be commended for their eillciency.
"Blest Be the Tie That Binds" was
sung by the congregation, apropos of
the delightful harmony of tho meetiiig.
The pastor, Rev. Dr. Whalen, asked for
j the singing of the doxology, which was
t followed by the benediction, sought by
Rev. W. B. Grow.
The pastor. Rev. Dr. H. J. Whalen,
must feel -well pleased with the woik
of the year and can derive a good deal
of satisfaction from the several reports,
for all of tho devoted members of the
congregation gladly testiry to his

BURGLARY ATTEMPTED
AT FINLAN HOME
Burst Open Window and Boor in
West Side Residence, but. Are
Frightened Away Chicken Rob
bers. The outbreak of lawlessness, such as
robberies, hold-ups and the like, which
has disturbed the city the past two
weeks, showed itself again yesterday
morning, when an uttempt was made
by burglars, to enter the homo of Hugh
Finlan, which Is situated in the West
Side, Just beyond the Pallbrook creek,
towards tho Brooklyn section.
Tho visitors, however, were not suc
cessful in their mission. Their noise
awoke the family, whose response
frightened them away.
The presence of tho supposed burg
lars was made known some time dur
ing the early morning by the noise of
breaking glass. Mr, Pinlan, thinking
that perhaps it was a neighbor who
was seeking entrance, or perhaps some
wayfarer who was in distress, shouted
for the person to cease his efforts, not
to break in the house, and he would
let him In. When Mr. Flnlan got down
stairs he found no one, but the glass
panel In the door and a window broken.
Nothing was taken, as entrance had
not been effected.
Chicken thieves were reported in the
Dundaff section, where several were
stolen from the Mahady residence.
