be expended in the purchase of some
new furniture for the reception room

pleasant and amusing entertainments,

THE" Saturday Item" thinks that
if Ravenpa and Kent were to try and
in vent scheme to discourage people
from ever locating in either place,
they could have adopted no. better
course than the one they took in sta
ting the amount of fines collected by
their respective Mayors and deposited
in the city treasures. Possibly not,
but we imagine we can penetrate q
trifle beyond the thin gauze that en-.
velOps that original article, and detect
the real animus that inspired the wri-
ter who '.scrawled strange words with
the barEarous pen." Rural hamlets
are very apt to stand off and bark at
their urban neighbors and try to inn
press somebody that they are veritable
sink holes of depravity and vice, or,
fact, that they are lacking in every
thing both social and moral, financial
and active, physical and mental, that
would make them desirable places to
| live in. 1t is but natural. Small
places are like children-they know
more when they become larger. We
might say that in Garrettsville drunk
enness and disorder are so common
that no attention is paid to them, and
consequently no fines are ever collect
ed by her Mayor; that if he fined ev-
cry drunkard and disreputable char.
acter in his Jurisdiction, and collected
the same, that Garrettsville would be
enabled to pave her streets with gold
but we do not care to step down from
the dignity of civil courtesy to indulge
in any such reflections. We will sim
ply say that crimes and misdemeanors
are odious in Ravenna, and should be
everywhere. We presume we also
voice the sentiments of our neighbor
ing city of Kent

THE INDUSTRIAL TROUBLES.

Remarks by Rev. pr. Newman Smyth
 An ounce of Prevent1on-Attacks
 Upon Personal Liberty-A Word
 About the BOycOtt-A TwO-Edged
 Weapon.
 Rev. Dr. Newman Smyth in a Lenten ser
 mon delivered yesterday forenoon before g
 large congregation at Center church said:
 "These forty days of Lent, if they could be
 observed according to lsaiah's moral states
 manship in every workshop, factory and
 store and in every trades union too in New
 England, might prove a most timely season
 of social repentance for the prevention of
 threatening industrial troubles. And with
 regard to these troubles an ounce of proven
 ton is worth more than 8 pound of cure.
 An ounce of justice and humanity in proven
 tion of these troubles may save the cost of
 pounds of lead. The present social condi-
 ton which confronts the church, and to which the church in faithfulness to it's gospel of the kingdom cannot be indifferent, is far from satisfactory, and even ominous, and for that very reason it is stimulating and prophetic. Classes organizing and be- coming arrayed against classes. In the Heres competition and conflict, at times barely restrained by legal forms, grievances, real or supposed, lead to attacks upon the principle of personal liberty to which the community cannot submit for moment. Only business cowardice can surrender to boycotting. The sharp weapons of indus trial warfare which are now freely used, and often with great apparent success, are two edged, and will ere long cut the sinews of the hands that grasp them as well as injure the industries which are stabbed by them. The one hope for society is the old hope, the hope of the prophets of the Lord, the one eternal hope of man in doing justice and seeking ! mercy. We need throughout the length and l breadth of this land to keep 1 a social and industrial Lent, to
 have e revival of justice, honesty and humanity. If the church in it's collec- tive power as the minister of righteousness and peace could influence all classes to pom | der for the next forty days the things which pertain to fair dealing between man and man, to reflect upon the duties which men owe to one another in their com ! mon humanity, to remember that men are ! more than hands in the sight of God and to ! seek for community of interests and CO., ! operation rather than for class combinations ! and strife, then indeed the business of this ! country would go humming with increas- ! ing prosperity rather than with the threaten ! ing diminished investment of capital, and | there would be fewer next winter without l work, and fewer families left as undigestsd social atoms to make trouble for us here after"

Death of Josiah Spalding Graham of
 The SOphomore Class.

Death of Josiah Spalding Graham of
 The Sophomore Class.
 Henry L. May has been elected chairman of the Courant board of 1887.
 The news that Dartmouth had been obliged to withdraw from the Intercollegiate base ball league, owing to the refusal of their fac ulty to allow them to play az many games as usual away from their own grounds, caused much regret on the campus.
 The sophomore class was yesterday called upon to mourn the death of one of it's mem bers, Josiah Spalding Graham. This is the first death that has occurred in the class since they entered college, and this fact, coupled with it's audiences, created deep feeling of sorrow. About week ago Gra- ham took drive clad in light spring cloth ing and contracted heavy cold, which brought catillipary bronchitis, which caused his death. Dr. Sanford, the attend ing physician. had some hopes of recovery in spite of the dangerous character of the dis ease until near the end, which came at o'clock yesterday morning. His father, who is a prominent and wealthy citizen of St. Louis, arrived Saturday evening at II D. m. and the father and son were enabled to pass a short time together. Yesterday at p. m the class assembled in the chapel where a short service was held, after which they es- certed the remains to the depot, where as a last tribute to their elassmate hymn was sung.

CHURCH OF THE ROLY SPIRIT.

Rev. Mrs. Hanaford And pr. TIunger,s
 Statement of Belief.
 The morning sermon was on the import ance and value Of a religious silence in wait ing upon the Lord for the renewal of strength. The words of Isaiah which form ed the text were, shown to be specifically adapted to youth, middle life and old age.
 Iu the evening Rev. Mrs. Hanaford com mented upon special passage in the 'fState- ment of Belief' which was bound up with the inaugural sermon of Rev. D:. Munger. After expressing the great pleasure and profit with which the admirable sermon was read, the speaker showed that the Universal ist church, in it's theology, by it's writers and preachers, and by tEe lives of prominent reformers, was continually expressing Gem phasis against sin'' and that no religious views shaped by the teachings of the Lord Jesus, and therefore no expression of the final triumph of righteousness in every soul based upon scripture language and the &C., knowledged attributes of the Almighty could be "practically demoralizing.n Regret was expressed thst one whose preaching and writings are so helpful should have felt it necessary to turn aside in his great and good work to cast undeserved reproach on any branch of Zion. The sermon closed with the appreciation of Dr. Munger's own excellent words in regard to sin. Universalists hold that no man can be saved who does not re- pent. And they also hold that the grace of God will bring repentance to all men, here or hereafter.
