Wheele-s paper land junk store on Long Wharf, and was there on Tuesday. During her stay in Lafayette street she kept an oc- casional boarder. The last of her .boarders was young man, who left her about two weeks ago. An investigation to find the source of an unpleasant odor led to finding her body lying on her sofa, dressed and in 8 natural position. She had probably lain down after dressing to go to her work on Wednesday morning and died of heart disease. Dr. White, the medi- cal examiner, made an examination of her body, but discovered no traces of violence. Death had evidently resulted from natural causes. The remains were removed to the almshouse on Saturday in the town ambu. lance.

 New York Burglars Steal Five Thousand
 Dollars Worth Of JevveIry.
 Chief Webster was notified by telephone yesterday morning of the burglary of Henry Marbles store in Meriden. The store was burglsrized sometime between Saturday night and Sunday morning. The burglars made the iron safe in the store their point of attack and succeeded in tearing of the en- tire front. They stole thirty gold and sev- enty five silver watches, several rings and other jeweIry amounting in value to nearly $5, ,o0o. In their hurry they left behind them oneIarge s'.jimmy," one saw, two braces and bits, one dozen wedges and a sledge ham mer weight twelve pounds. From the fact that the burglars left helaind them small bottle of oil with name of New York druggist upon the label, it is supposed that they came from New York and probably re- turned there. on an early morning train, prob ably the one leaving Meriden about 8. m. It is stated that the safe was one of the old style and but little work WAS required to reach the valuables it contained.

Rev. T. R. R.Bacon-SermOn on the Human
 fty Of Christ.
 At Dwight Place church yesterday morn ing Rev. Thomas R. Bacon preached from Matthew 11-19: ''The son of man came eating and drinking" The theme of the dis. course was the humanity of Christ. He went about eating and drinking among men, carrying bis teaching wherever he went He dined with publicans and sinners that he might teach them of higher life.
 Eating and drinking together is a long estaBlished social custom, promotfve alike ot frisndship and hospitality. Out of it has grown the present custom of inviting q friend to drink intoxicants-a custom pre- auctive of great evil. Christ always taught his disciples when sitting with them at the table. His last supper with them is com. memorated by us this day. It is joyful time when we meet again after separation of few months, but how is our fellow ship strengthened by eating and drinking together in remembrance of our Lord. !

Calvary Baptist Church.

The Rev. NIT. Samson Trenches Two Ex-
 ceIEent Sermons.
 After his vacation the Rev. MT. Samson preached in his church yesterday, giving two impressive discourses In the evening the sermon was from a text found in the closing verses of the sixth chapter of Luke. In op- ening the preacher spoke of the superiority of Christ's teachings to those of any merely human master. This is so marked that there are very few who do not recognize it. The fu' ture is known only to him and Christ's teach ing was designed to prepare men for that future~ The drift of all his discourses is to kingdom of God and his righteousness. H presented in the text the duty and the reason for it. There are three plain marks by which true disciple of Christ may be distinguish ed. One is the fact that he always comes to God. He seeks him wherever he may be found It may seem to some that there can be no finding and apprehending merely spiritual existence, but there is as truly a communion between the Christian and his God as there is between the souls of two human beings. Every real Christian hears his voice in his word in the preaching of the gospel, in the consolation of Christian friends and in prayer. Another mark of the Chris tian is the fact that he hears what God says He addresses us in many ways, but how often do we not heed it. In the time of trial the true disciples concern is to find out what teaching God has for him and he is con- stantly looking for the divine guidance and instruction. The third mark is, the true disciple does the will of God as expressed in the Bible He does not forget the teaching, nor waver in following Gods guidance. This is the most essential element of the Chris- tian's character.
 The reason for doing Gods will is also ex- pressed in the text. There is no human be- ing utterly ignorant of God and his will. There is no man, however hsartless of rel1g- ious things or skeptical in regard to them, who when standingi n the shadow of death, when his real opinions are tested, does not call out in all sincerity, "Lord Lord !" How inconsistent course. No sane or sen- sible man thinks of anything else but per- forming his every day duties, but many ne glect the future. We ought to take heed of these things Another reason is the momen- tous results which follow the doing or ne- glacting duty The foundations of our Christian character should be laid on the solid rock and should be begun in infancy and built up slowly and carefully. A life time is all too short time for performing this work. The man who does not exercise the same care about his soul that he does in secular things will find at the last that God will send flood of trial and temptation that he cannot withstand.

After the Circunnav1gatiOn of Long Is- land.
 MT. Richard Laws sloop, the Josephine Smith, arrived in the harber Saturday morn ing after cruise around Long Island, which was much enjoyed by the party, which con. sisted of Messrs. c. w. Foster, R. W. Law, F. W. Smith, John McNiel, John Kinney and
 James Nichols After visiting Newport they took in the fishing at Block Island fishing grounds and struck good run of luck catch ing over POO pounds of cod and 200 pounds of founders The largest cod weighed 25 pounds MT. Foster hooked @ shark and af ter lively time the shark got away. They passed the Mystery off the Hen and Chick ems There were no mishaps worthy of me h. ton and all came home we'll pleased.
 A correspondent in the party writes as fol- lows: The sloop Josephine Smith, Captain Baldwin, arrived home Saturday afternoon after cruise of eleven days, with the follow ing gentlemen on board R. W. Law, s. B. Law, F. W. Smith, c. w.. Foster, Fred erick Lane, John Kinney, John W. Merwin, John McNeil and James Nichols, all of New Haven. The cruise was through New York bay to Coney Island, to Fire Island, past Montauk Point, to Block Island, through Vineyard Sound to Oak Bluff and Vineyard Haven, from there to New Bedford and New port, visiting all the places of interest in each. On Friday, the 7th, 8 trip was made to the fishing banks of Block Island, where 2OO pounds of cod was caught, and about as many of large founders, J. w. Merwin catching the only blueish and John McNen the largest cod, which was two feet ten inches long and weighed about twenty-five pounds. c. W. Foster got five foot rock shark on his hook and hauled him ts the boats side where good view of the monster was had and a boat hook thrust into his head by McNeil, which caused the fellow to skip out while Smith was getting his gun to shoot him. 0. W. Foster and F. w. Smith shot ifty-two snipe and one lark while on Fire Island in boat forty minutes. They were served on the following day for dinner while sailing the ocean blue. The trip was success in every respect. We had fine weather and fair wind during the entire time.
 This cruise will long be remembered by those on board. The Josephine is one of the fastest sailing sloops in these waters as well as an able sea going boat. On August 31 she passed 8 fleet of IT vessels en route from Coney Island to Fire Island, many of which were fast sailors, and on August % she made 1 8 run of about S5 miles before the wind in 10 hours and 10 minutes. On the return as the boat rounded New Haven light the | party gave Captain Baldwin three rous- ing cheers for safely guiding the Josephine l through dangers seen and unseen during the | cruise. A cruise of this class is being talked | of for the southern waters during the winter [ in the Josephine.
