PEOPLE WORSHIP Dunkirk, Sept. 14. A general sizing up of Dunkirk, made by a visitor who dropped in to look the place over, would bring about something like the following: A splendid Academy building, a dozen and a half churches, reflecting credit on the goodness of the community, some broad and well shaded streets, an orphan asylum, three big manufacturing Industries and a small number of infinitely smaller ones, some bad wharves and piers, and 'some especially nice homes, a cozy little City Hall.

a hotel building that is more imposing exteriorly than interiorly, good telephone service, a fine water supply and a good eewer system, two national banks that are solid and substantial, a beautiful library building under course of construction, and the usual complement of bakers and butchers and barbers and booksellers, fire and life insurance agents, grocers, some cigar factories, a couple of newspapers which never become excited, and fifty saloons.

When the Brooks Locomotive "Works were incorporated upon November 1st-, Ih9, Mr. Brooks was elected president and superintendent, and Mr.

Hinman, secretary and treasurer. One locomotive was the output for that first month of November, and one locomotive for December.

Jamestown, Sept. 16. The Interstate Baseball League closed its season this week. It was a six-league team and they closed in the following order: Coudersport won 649 per cent, of its games; Erie. 585: Olean, 500; Bradford, 449: Kane, 443; DuBoise, 385.

The Rev. Joy Handy was the first nracher of the ilock, and i the ronerreeations whuh he addiessed was forced to meet in the schoolhouse, and after that over Parson's wagon shop, which was one of the best build- i jngs in the city. For twenty-six years the congregation struggled along, gaining- in strength year at'ur year, and in IS06 it built what was then regarded as one of the architectural ornaments cf the eounty. the old brick church, in which the congregation continues to i hold its gatherings. A very short time after Mr.

Handy started his church ten persons, proclaiming adherence to the Presbyterian faith, banded together i'nd tho Presbytery at Bu)f alo to organize them, and they started the' First Presoyter-tan Church, holding meetings alternately in the schoolhouse and Parson's Wapon with the- tUntist You can secure a home in-; Buffalo's growing Residential Section on Hines Street for the low price of $2, 100.

The Rev. Timothy till-man of Yale ar.d Auburn w.ts the first leader of the fleck, coming, in the spring of 1S30 at an annual salary of $400, which was rather large, considering the times and the poverty of the congregation. Many ministers followed and the church throve. IrTTFSO Dr. E.

He was deemed unorthodox by the Presbytery and forced to resign his charge, and when he lelt the churcjj so many followed him that he formed The City Congregational Church a ncn-uctarion church, which held its meetings in the City Hall.

In 1853 the St. John's Episcopal Church was organized and under the direction of the Rev.

Charles Arey. It erected a church edifice at Eagle and 4th streets in lSST, when the Rev. P. I'. Kidder was the pastor.

Then came in quick succession the St. John's German Evangelical Church, organized in 1858 by the Rev. Voight, the St. Peter's Eagle Street Church and the St. Peter's Fourth Street Lutheran Church.

In the year 1851 the Rt. Rev. John Tlmon, the Roman Catholic bishop of the diocese of Buffalo, began sending missionary priests here to give religious teaching to the scattered families of the Roman Catholic faith, and as the orening of the Erie Railroad to Dunkirk that year augmented the numbers greatly a frame structure was soon built and the Rev. Father Lannon was placed in charge. An addition was soon needed and in 1851: a splendid site was selected and the corner stone for a fine house of worship was laid by Bishop Tlmon.

The church was opened on March 17. 1854, and the Rt. Rev. Bishop Young of Erie' dedicated it in November of the same year under the invocation of the Seven Dolors of Mary.
