Pre-en taGiOn.

On Saturday evening MT. Joseph Murphy, the popular actor, was presented with very elegant gold headed cane by his New Haven admirers. The cane was presented behind the scenes, MT. Murphy preferring this method to having it presented in public, thinking that it would be considered an ad- vertising dodge. The cane, which wss pre- sented by James I. Hayes, bore the following inscription:

The Iyinstesi Catastrophe.

Of the fifty or sixty persons injured by the cyclone in Winsted the majority only receiv- ed trifing injuries, from which they are rap idly recovering. Mary O'Connell, who sus- tained a concusgion of the brain will proba- bly die. One of the Dunn children, who was burned and bruised, is in critical condition Anne Thompson, aged 6S, is in bad condi- tion. She had two ribs fractured. Mary Wright received a spinal injury, which has produced partial paralysis of the abdominal | organs.
 At the meeting of the citizens of Winsted to relieve the sufferers Judge Hitchcock presided. The sum of $1, 800 for the imme- diate necessities of the sufferers was at once
 raised, Father Leo giving $500, David Strong l and Judge Hitchcock $1O0 and R E. Holmes,
 T. M. Clarke and John Woodford $50 each
 A committee was appointed to disburse the l funds.
 l The deepest sympathy for the sufferers prevails. Neighbors' houses were at once l opened and everybody vies with each othe, ! to extend assistance.
 ! A correspondent, ''N., " writes: Although | tho loss is serious one that will be in some 1 cases irreparable, it was accompanied bJ
 some ludicrous incidents. One man, labor 1 er was preparing to retire, and had disrobec
 himself of all clothing with the exception oi 1 shirt, when he was suddenly hurled some dis I tance among the ruins of the house anC
 landed in the pig pen.
 | Another man could find no head covering
 except ladys bonnet which he was wearing
 wrong side in front.
 I A lady whose house lay in raizs was al | most disconsolate over the loss of a favorite I washstand. She was evidently of the opin l ion that the loss of the washstand was great 1 CT than the loss of the house.
 A laboring man that was in the habit of re l tiring and rising early had undressed and re | tired with child, the wife and mother in
 dread of the vivid lightning and loud thun
 der had taken 8 seat on the bed. In this
 condition all three persons were carried by
 the gale to an open field. The bed clothing I was scarcely disturbed and the man put his
 hand out of bed on to the grass. He was
 obliged to go to 8 neighbours house without
 pants

Third CongregationaI Church.


 The usual full attendance was noted at the afternoon session of the Third Congregational church. The first chapter of Genesis was read at the opening. The text was the 11th and 18th verses of the thirtieth Psalm ssThou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing thou hast put off my sackcloth and girded me with gladness, to the end that my glory may sing praise to thee and not be si- lent Lord, my God, I will give thanks unto thee forever" The emphatic recogni- ton of Gods personality in these inspired words of the Psalmist conveyed the lesson of the hour The great truth of a personal God lies at the foundation of human happiness, progress and attainment. Ignoring this fact is the cause of the church's sloth and guilt. Without God our life is failure, and misery our lot. An interesting account of the occa- sion of David's cause of rejoicing in God as shown in the text was given by the speaker. His own preaching, he said, should ever be full of this great truth of Gods personality. The awful tendency of our times to desert and not to know God he deplored and earn estly rsproved. The choir singing was of high order.
