A Dove on on the Pastors Head.

New Haven Journal ami Courier.
The worshipers in the east Haven Congre-
gational church recently witnessed scene
that will long be remembered. The pastor,
Rev. Mr.. Clark, was about finishing the
prayer Immediately preceding the sermon
when dove lit upon the center gallery in full
view of the congregation and began gently
cooling. AS the clergyman finished his prayer,
the dove flew TO the side gallery and perehed
upon the gallery railing about opposite the
clergyman. When the pastor was reading the
chapter from which his text was taken, the
dove cooed when the I astor's tones grew
louder and stopped when he paused. The
pastor was reading the first chapter OF Johns
gospel, and when he read the sd verse and
came to the clause, 81 saw the spirit descend.
ing from heaven Ike a dove, and Il abode
upon him., the dove which had by Its mo
lions indicated and intention Of flying 10 the
pastor, fey to the sacred desk and rarshed
directly upon the ooeE ares of the sacred
volume. tt psGtor's text was the fourth
Yerse>ofthe chapter. The dove shortly after
few in a circle over the singers heads in the
side seats and settled down upon the plat
form below the pulpit, and there it remained
throughout the sermon, occasionally emitting
5000" as If in appreciation either Of the
pastors words or the share OF notice the con-
gregation gave it. At the conclusion of the
sermon the pastor stepped down TO lead in
the sacrament services, and, before doing so,
closed the Bible, whereupon the dove few up
and lit upon the closed cook and cooed. Tb
bird thrice stepped off the book and returned
10 IL. II then nestled down by the side CT the
sacred book and remained there until the
sacrament service was closed. The Gilman
here arrived. Mr.. Clark finished the seryic,
with few remarks in which, after noting tn,
interruption that the dove had oceasioned al
having been remarkable in view of the sing
ular condolences which all had noted, b,
added that, as the Holy Spirit had descended
on Christ, might not the presence of thi
winged visitor be taken as emblematical O
the presence OF the spirit in this church a
this time whereupon the bird few and lit di
rectly upon the pastors head. The effect upol
the pastor and audience was electrical, AM
where before the dove had been regarde'
with simple curiosity and had caused smllin,
faces now many OF tie ladies were moved +
tears and the whole assembly seemed to b
deeply and strangely affected. The paste
took the dove down and held it against hi
treast, and in that POSITION closed the service
with the benediction.

their lives into business, housekeeping
