A aTHATFORD PASTOR.

Preaehe. Mt davenport Church Yes
terday-Chrisr the CeRtral Figure of
Humanity-Christ the Ideal Char
acter - All Things In Christ the
Divine.
Rev. J. S. Ives of Stratford preached q
pleasing sermon at Davenport church yes
terday morning, taking for his text part
of the 10th verse of the first chapter of
Ephesians. Gan things in Christ" The
sermon embodied the following: "The
first chapter of Ephesians is unparalleled In
literature for it's beautiful expressions. We
cannot be too familiar with it; be holy with
out blemish; sum up all things in Christ for
him who worketh all things after the coun-
Gil of his own mill: that the God of our
Lord Jesus Christ the Father of glory may
give unto you the spirit of wisdom and reve-
lation in the knowledge of him; In whom
we have redemption through his blood, the
forgiveness and sins according to the riches
of his grace;-these are some OF those beau
tiful expressions. Prominent in all this
wealth OF thought is the statement to
sum up all things in Christ. For
with him is all righteousness and power.
With him is no haste or disappointment.
There seems to be in the apostles mind a
picture of the universe, with Christ as the
center, as he says: All things reaching after
Christ, and Christ is the SUM of all. He is
hottest among mightiest, and mightiest among
holiest. When Christ was in Galilee he
could not be hid. Christ is the central fig
ure of humanity. If we can make this truth
appear in this light We have established a
foundation for our belief.
Let US briefly study out the thought Christ
is the ideal character. When men will ind
the truest type of character they
do not always look for heroes.
They look for the Christian spirit
and for the more Christ-like lives.
| It is revelation of that perfect char acter
when He said in the temple: "Wist ye not
| that must be about My Fathers bushes 8. u
Gin Him was light and the light was the life
OF men," In Him truth finds its home. By
searching for truth we are drawn nearer to
Him. The uplifting influence of Christ's
| character permeates all Christian life. The
| light that brought salvation to world Of
sinners is unique and it is divine. >.
Every thoughtful man muet answer the
question for himself, Is there righteous
| Gods Is there judgment? Is there re-
tributiona Is there light beyond the pres
ent worlds God has not left us without 8
revelation that is plain and significant. Al
we come into communication with him ou1
doubts are cleared away.
If all things center in Christ 1t 1s plair
that all authority is his. This acknowledge
ment makes the duty of the Christian easiel
and palmer.
In the masters parable an enemy sowet
| tares among the wheat, with serious results
| We should guard against the sowing of evi
seed In our minds, SO we will not have thu
opportunity to say an enemy hath done this
| The steps Of man whose course has beer
downward have been fact and fatal, bu
thanks be to God we have all things in Chris
| and to him be glory"

present than any other fielder in the league.
The defeat that Baltimore sustained on
Saturday at the hands of the Cincinnatis-
20 to DIS the most disastrous OF the seson
among professional clubs Person was
touched up for twenty.seven hits.
A pitcher cannot win games unless his
team does little hitting. Six hits were
made off Horner on Saturday. and three by
New Haven off Baker. In Lowell but five
were made off him, but the New Ravens got
but two off Burns.
The statement made by the directors of
the Wilkesbarre team shows that the short
age was 81, 1892 or an average OF y, S46.4l
per month. The salary OF the team was
$4,000.
President Hewitt, by enterprising specula-
ton, has made $50, 900 for himself so far this
season out of the Washington club.

Newark-McKee Arrives-The Latest

The New Haven team did splendid work
last week, winning four out of six games.
One was lost to Worcester, the other to New
ark. The game against Worcester should
not have been lost. Saturdays game was
easily won by Newark ON good hitting and
errors by New Ravens felders. Baker again
pitched for Newark and did great work, al
lowing the New Ravens bat three hits, two
by Tom Corcoran and the third by Horner.
Homer did well excepting in one inning,
when he was hit rather hard. If Tom Cor.
coran had taken fly batted into deep short
field the four runs would not have beer
scored. Lally's two bad throws let in two
runs and two singles and q double sent ir

YOUNG COUGHS SAD END.

His Death the Result of q Sea Water
Bath-Ina animation of the Ear and
Brain-ActiOn of HIS Classmates
Yesterday-The Glass TO Attend I'm a
Body.
The many classmates and friends of Will
liam L. Couch, son of Robert L. Couch, of
the National New Haven Bank, and valedic-
torian of the class which graduated from the
Hillhouse High School last April, were sur
prised and shocked to hear of his sudden
death at Stony Creek on Saturday. He was
attended during his illness by DIR. Gaylord of
Branford, and DR.. n. Rowland Of WhaIley
avenue, this city. DR.. Carmalt was also oon-
suited. The case was peculiar one. On
July 80 young Couch went bathing, and next
day complained of q severe pain in bis ear.
He had taken salt water into his mouth, and
tube into the middle ear, caused the tube to
swell and generated pus there. This made
q pressure upon the drum membrane and
ruptured It, and profuse discharge of pus
from the ear continued throughout the
conrse of the disease. After four days the
Inflammation of the middle ear extended up-
ward along the course of the blood vessels
through the thin, bony portion between the
ear and the brain, and finally reached the
hIoabNnihcp VI tuo bkhAu ltooAls 1uAbkuLuh~
ton of the brain membranes ensued, causing
| what is called meningitis"
For about four days the meningial disease
was very severe, causing high fever, rapid
pulse and delirium. The ears in the mean
time discharged pus profusely. Then the
meningia or brain-membrane disease began
| to abate and the fever to decrease. In fact
there was general improvement, and this
favorable condition continued until last
| Thursday, when he was noticed to be little
irritable; and Friday morning at 6 O'Clock
his fever suddenly rose to 1913 degrees, and
within two hours to about 105 and his pulse
to 1873. From that time until his death at z
o'clock Saturday morning he lay in coma
tose state. The sad affair has almost stopped
bathing at Stony Creek. Doctors say, how
| ever, that 1t is q rare thing for salt water in
l the ears to result thus fatally, but recon-
mended that the bather keep the mouth
closed carefully.
The funeral will take place from the resi-
dence of the young mans father at 46 Garden
| street tomorrow afternoon. A meeting of
| the class of '89, Il. 81. s., was held at the
residence of Benjamin Rowland, Whslley
avenue, yesterday afternoon to take action
upon the death of William L. Couch, their
valedictorian. The class will attend the
funeral services in body, assembling at
Trinity N. E. church tomorrow afternoon at
4 o'clock. A portion of the church will be
reserved, and all members of the class now
In town are earnestly requested to attend.

About UmplrinR.

When the New Haven Amusement COM
pany requested the appointment of MIR. Jas.
Kelly as umpire in the Atlantic League they
made great mistake. He does not know
how, or cannot umpire game of baseball
any more than he can referee game of polo.
Many in attendance at the game last Satur-
day stated that they would never attend a
game again when they knew Umpire Kelly
was to act.
It would be we'll for Umpire Kelly to un-
derstand, also, that he cannot legally have q
person removed from the grounds for merely
expressing his disapproval-as according to q
recent decision in California, the audience
if given the right of approval must have
also the right of disapproval.
Were he to cause an ejectment of person
the New Haven Amusement com pany would
be liable for damages.

Notes In General.

Doran is himself once more. He has good
command of the ball.
In the two games that Baker pitched
against New Haven only Tom Corcoran, J..
Corcoran, Schoeneck, Galligan and Horner
made safe hits. OF the seven hits that were
made off Baker, Tom Corcoran made three,
for total of four bases.
Baker struck Lally out four times.
Will the New Ravens find the ball to-
morrowi
Baker is a good nstured player. When
asked if he was out after Kelly had called
him out on strikes he laughed and said he
guessed Horner got the ball over one corner
of the plate.
There was one play that Kelley could not
have allowed Saturday If Newark had OBJ
jected strenuously. 1t was when Cahill
caught foul fy which he did not see. If
the game had been at all close Leo Smith
would have stood up for his point in not
having the man called out and he would
have been sustained, according to the rules.
Sworback says his arm is all right again
and he is ready to go in scd pitch good
ball.

Time, 1856. Umpire, James Kelly.
During the past week more or less has
been said about the release of O'Rourke. An
evening paper insisted that the cause of his
Sanborn. In justice to Mr.. O'Rourke it
should be said that this Is not the reason he
was released, although II came at time
which made the croakers talk. The writer
knows that the directors talked of releasing
O'Rourke six weeks ago on account of the
high salary being paid him. From what can
be learned O'Rourke was not in fit condition
to play on that day. Besides Stubborn kept
him on the jump. Mr.. O'Rourke has been
in base ball too long for an accusation that
he did not desire to support player to
stand. He didn't appear to be favorite with
the people, but at the same time he was with
out an exception headiest catcher in the
whole league. But for the high salary he
wanted he would have been kept.
The sensation of the week has been the
playing of the Norwalks since being admit
ted in the Atlantic league. On Friday at
South Norwalk the home team outbatted and
outielded the Hartfords, but lost the game,
2 to /. Ridley pitched for Norwalk and but
four hits were made off him. In Hartford
Saturday the score was s to 4 in favor of
Hartford. This certainly shows that the
Norwalks can hold their own with the teams
in this league. Williams pitched for the
Norwalks and but seven hits were made of
him, while Norwalk made nine off O'Connell
Norwalk had one more error. Manager DON
nelly has been looking after pitchers, but il
the other teams as they did against Hartford
he need not be at all worried. There is one
position that manager will have to make q
change in-that of Sullivan at short. Ir
Gilbert he has q fine third baseman and also
heavy hitter.
