Some damage was done the stock in the cellars of the hat store of Butler, on Church strest Spanlding's drug store and Osterweis, cigar manufacturer.

 All Malley's goods were damaged to con. | siderable extent. The whole cellar bottom 1 was covered with sand and water to the l depth of from four to six inches and they | had to tear up the floor to let the water out l It was caused by the overflow of the sewer the water rushing in too fast for the sewer te carry off.

No Back

In one of Hans Andersen's stories he speaks of an old elf lady, who, when she went into company, made very genteel ap- pearance, only she had no back. There are many people who suffer many aches and pains and weakness in that part of the body, and they almost wish they had no back. But these pains, etc, come from kidney disease, and there Is medicine-Hunt's Remedy, the great kidney and liver medicine-that works to such charm that one taking it becomes
 like the elf lady, unconscious of 0 back
 though unlike her in having whole, sound and perpendicular back. Hunts Remedy has l a back of the stiffest kind. for it's mission is to support the weak, and heal the ailing, and this 1t is doing all over the land. se25 eteod

" ESl E1AT on.

The harvest concert exercises at the Meth odist church last evening were very interest ing to the large audience that was present. and autumn flowers, and sheaf of wheat was in the center. The evening exercises were opened by piano solo by Mrs Edward Richards, who is also the teacher of the choir. She played Old Hundred with varia- tions in excellent style. The pastor, Rev. B. F. Kidder, read 8 scripture lesson and also made few appropriate remarks. The singing of an anthem by the choir and the recitations and singing by the different mem- bers of the Sabbath school were well done, especially the recitations of Eddie Flames, Gessie Savage, Nettie Baldwin, Lida Crane, Lillie Mosher, Grace Sackstt, Eva Thomas. In fact all deserve great praise, but we must not forget to mention the recitation of little Ernest Brown among the infant class He spoke his little piece in loud tone and in very plain manner. Miss Mary Hughes de- serves great praise for getting up the exer- cises.
 L. The Inquest-The Tunnel Accident.
 At the inquest at New York Saturday even- ing as to the accident in the tunnel Conduc- tor Reed testified to being short of brakemen on his train. The water boy Robbins, who acted as brakeman, testified to having tried to put torpedoes on the track, but was un- able to do so, as the train was close upon him. Telegraph Operator Rawson testified that while busy making out reports for the train dispatcher he was notified from Eighty sixth street that the track there was not clear and he went out to lower his flag, but the rain had twisted the rope and he could not put out the flag before the train had passed under his station. He then telegraphed the Eighty sixth street station to stop her, but received an answer: 'Brakeman will stop her " He stated that 108 trains pass his office day.
 The coroner held the operator in $3 ,OOO and the brakeman and conductor in S2 GOO bail for the action of the grand jury. Bail was furnished

eiples, according, as the apostle puts it, to the effsctual working in the measure of every part I need not bring to you in this my first sermon in the memorable succession of pastors, who have been leaders of Gods people my own personal fears or hopes. The pulpit seems to me place almost too sacred for the expression even of those grateful feelings which a pastor sometimes finds filling his heart Butwe are now in the presence of truth and before duties which dwarf our little personalities and humble us all before God He calls his people to go forward He gives to the trembling hand of his church the scep- tre of his kingdom. He bids us go forth and bind this nineteenth century with all it's spir- it of learning and of art to the triumphal procession of his Christ Too great would be for the task, too high the calling, were it not that to lead others we have only hum bly to follow Christ. He's gone before us in he way We have but to follow; to follow Him with honest minds, with teachab1o hearts, with willing feet Amen, let us go hence.
 AFTERNOON SERVICE.
 At the afternoon service Rev. Dr. Smyth preached from the text in Heb vii : 1G, the words in the last clause of the verse, ''The power of an endless life." The revelation of this power anew in the world is by the proc lamation of the gospel Jesus taught it to his disciples in that weary, sin-sick age of the world. To the true believers and follow CTS of Christ this power was imparted. Scat- tered through the world by the persecution after his death and resurrection, they every where planted the good seed. So determined were these tyrants and oppressors of human ity that they seemed endowed with increased strength to do evil, by the display of this very power of an endless life, des- tined to subdue all things to itself.
