A Washington correspondent of the Min neapolis Tribune says that the belief is grow ing in the minde of the best informed men of both parties at the capital that Cleveland does not intend to be candidate for renom- ination. This is founded in part on the recklessness and inconsistency he has mani tested of late in matters of importance to him and his party. oOne thing" says the correspondent, "can be stated with all the positiveness of truth; that is that, if renomi- mated, it will be against his own deliberately formed judgment. There is whoop and 8 hurrah among ill-advised men of his party

Senator German understands civil service reform and is not afraid to say so. When he was informed that the senatorial-civil service committee was going to Baltimore to investi- gate the offices there, he told them of what they would find. They would find, he said. that wherever it had been possible, Republi- cans had been removed because they were Republicans, and Democrats appointed be- cause they were Democrats. There were few Republicans still in office, but they only held on because he had found it impossible to remove them. He was asked if any re. movals had been made for cause, and replied that the fact the officials were Republicans was quite cause enough.

ADVICE TO YOUNG MEN.
Rev. MT. Nichols Tells Them TO Fol sake Evil Influences and Habits Fo

Rev. MT. Nichols Tells Them ITO For sake Evil Influences and Habits Fol An Exemplary Life of Christianity. The regular half-past six meeting at Dwight Hall last evening was addressed by Rev. MT. Nichols, assistant minister of
 Trinity church. The words of the preacher
 were listened to with much interest by the
 many students. He portrayed a Christian
 college life and exhorted all young
 men to forsake evil influence and habits for
 an exemplary life of Christianity. s'But,"
 said he, edo not allow any superiority from
 anyone on account of religion. God alone
 knows our hearts. Some of you say that
 night is right and wrong is wrong, salvation
 is on one side and something else on the oth-
 CT. But that is not subject of argument.
 I can truly state one truth as well as I know how and that is indeed 8 Christian duty. You all know a Christian is a converted man. We are all outcasts of memory: only one man, one brother, one Christian. Are you strong enough to believe there is unity among men in college on Christ's love and Christ's redemption2 If you are strong enough, I coniure you, use this year in re spectfully and charitably looking to your brethren in whatever conditions. bid you in the name of Yale's superiority in Chris tian endeavor, to open the portals of relig- ious fellowship to the wandering or way ward steps of your comrades"

 an Injury In His Rack.
 Last evening, when the alarm was sounded for the fire on Hillhouse avenue, Charles F. Merwin, of the call force of Hook and Lad. der company No. 1, located on Artisan street, undertook to descend to the ground floor from the second story by means of one of the brass slide rods which are used for the purpose, instead of stairs. His grip on the rod was imperfect, and with almost no check to the speed of his descent, he struck the floor on his feet in such way as to seriously jar and strain his back. Mir. Merwin suffered much pain. Dr. O. Purdy Lindsley was sum- moned, and asoertained that no bones were broken, after which MT. Merwin was convey ed in carriage to his home, 69>Lyon street.

A Popular Feature at the Dwight
 PIaec Church-The Church CrOWd ded
 Last Night.
 The monthly praise service at the Dwight Place church last evening brought out con- gregation of over twelve hundred people, who went away well pleased with the singing of the fine quartetts and the added soloists. Miss WArnor's excellent contralto voice was heard to good advantage in the song Calvary" which she rendered with great ease and expression. Miss Mansfield and MT. Babcock sang beautifully, and the quintette with the assistance of Miss Keys, the 1sopra- no, WAS one of the best numbers. MT. Hunt, oornetist from Worcester, played with ex- oellent tone and feeling.
 The Congregational hymns were sung with the power and fervor peculiar to this church, and the organ in it's new position was much more effective than heretofore. These services arc becoming very popular, and Dr. Twitchell and MT. Parsons are to be congratulated for their energy in getting them up.

 Damage Slight and Covered by Insur-
 ance.
 About half-past 6 last evening an alarm of fire was sounded from box 54, corner of Pros- pect and Sachem streets. The fire was in the residence No. 35 Hillhouse Savenue, for merly occupied by Professor Silnman and now by Mrs. John Addison Porter.
 The family were at supper when smoke was noticed coming from Mir. Edgar s. Por- tsr's smoking room at the right of the hall. It was found that the walls were at1re, caused by contact with the hot furnace pipes. The police station was telephoned and the patrol wagon was sent to strike an alarm. But one stream of water was put on by the fire department ard the blaze was soon ex- tipguished. MT. Porter and several young ladies in the house seemed to take it all as a big joke.
 The wainscottipg was torn away by the fremen and considerable damage done to carpets and decorations, but $260 will cover everything, 1t is thought. Mir. Porter holds insurance policies from Weld's agency and no loss can occur.
