T'ropertios, us s aiul directions with TRINITY COMMANDERY. Annual Inspection Last Night With 200 Sir Knights Present. The annua! inspection of Trinity Cpmnmmlery. No. 7. Knights Templar, was held at Masonic Temple last even ing and lully 200 Sir Knights were p.vsenl. There was a large number of visiting fra tens from Waterville and also a number from Gardiner anil Bath. The inspecting officer was Judge Sanford I,. Fogg of Rath, grand con*; mander of the Grand Commandery jM| Maine and he had only words warmest praise for the work of ti^ evening and the general condition of the commandery. The work was in the Temple degree and was most impres sively performed by Eminent Com mander Thomas H. Bodge and his fel low officers. As usual the singing of the famous Trinity Quartet, with Mr. M ass at the organ, was a feature of the occasion. After the banquet, which followed the work, there were speeches by Grand Commander Fogg, Dr. F, C. Thayer of Waterville, a past com mander of Maine and now grand war der ot the Grand Encampment of the United States; Commander White of Dunlap Commandery of Bath, and M\ C. Philbrook of M'aterville. grand sen ior warden of the Grand Commandery of Maine. Judge Philbrook was partic ularly eloquent and his speech made a great hit.

Plaisted of this city as the installing officer. On Easter Sunday, April 19. the commandery, by invitation of Rev. C. A. Hayden, will attend a special service at 4 P. M. at the Universalist church. At the Gospel Mission. Another instructive and interesting message was given last evening liy Evan gelist James Estes. The subject was: “A Great Petition,” taken from II Kings. ii:9. “Lot a double portion of thy spirit he upon me.” Simplicity of prayer is always accept able to God. This was Elisha’s request of Elijah. AVhen Elijah’s mantle touched Elisha while at his work at the plow he arose and followed. He was a busy man. God lays His hand upon men who seem to have all they can do, and leads them from their own work and gives them something better to do. Elisha roasted his oxen and left all. lie burned all bridges. This is what Christians must do. As Elisha went on with Elijah he had three wonderful experiences. The first was at Gilgal, a place where Raul was made king. Also a place where he learned how to follow. One once hav ing started out canont afford to leave the Christian's pathway. Thus the Holy Spirit serves as a guide to keep men out of evil ways. This is how in the name of Christ we can have sustaining grace in all places. The second place was that of Bethel, a place of God's abiding. It means consecration, where all is laid upon the altar and God sanctifies the offering. Only dean people can have the aiding presence of the Master. The third place was at Jericho, meaning a place of establishment and also of vic tory. As the strong winds cause trees to take deep roots, so here is the place where the heart and life takes Us foun dation upon Christ. Many are saying today: "I'd try if I knew I could live such a life.” My friend, it is in the leading of the Holy Spirit. Bet Him lend you. Beloved, count the cost, make the consecration, take the palm of victory and go on. Come with us and we a ill do thee good. God has the double portion to give now. Make the great, petition yours. At the close several requested prayer. The doors will be open tonight for all who may come. You come. Funeral of Late Mrs. Newton Edwards. The funeral of the late Mrs. New ton Edwards was held at her late resi dence on Myrtle street at 4 o’clock Friday afternoon, the services being conducted hy Rev.
