An Interesting Meeting at Warner
 Hall Yesterday.
 Yesterday afternoon very interesting meeting, under the auspices of the Y. M. 0. A., was held in Warner hall. Rev. MT. Mason, pastor of the First Baptist church, addressed the meeting in place of Rev. H. P. Nichols, who was detained by the grip. His advice to the young men was to take apersonal inventory of their own lives and character at the opening of the new year. He well illustrated the result of choosing the wrong way in speaking of the large company of such who are under the charge of the New York State Reform school at Elmira The only right way is to be always faithful and live straight forward Christian life. The Shubert male quartette of this city rendered some very fine selections of sacred music during the service. Next Sunday there will be sim liar service at 4 o'clock. The quartette will be present as yesterday.

AT COURT STREET TEMPLE.
Or. l.. Kleeberg's Lecture on Theos-
 Ophy Yesterday.

4 pr. l.. k1eeberg's Lecture on Theos-
 Ophy Yesterday.
 Dr. Kleeberg delivered, yesterday morn ing, in the Court Street Temple, highly interesting lecture on the subject 'Theos- ophy Compared with Judaism" before an apprecistiYe audience.
 In the course of his address he said: I consider Theosophy as one of the many systems of religion which, meteor-ike, fash across the morrison to disappear in the great gulf of oblivion and darkness. As the first objection I mention that it is an authentical belief, may more, it is fraud, because it calls itself Theosophy, which means the wisdom or the knowledge of God, without recognizing God. Madam Besant, the present representative of the faith, says: "In the universe there is nothing great save man; in man there is nothing great save mind" So that human reason is considered the highest power in the universe.
 But wherein lies the great fascination in the new faitha Its adopts claim to possess magical powers, to be able to be in differ ent places at the same time, to be able to impress their will upon others without the knowledge of the other one. Here hyp- notism is brought into acquisition. They also maintain that there are worlds where our geometry and arithmetic are all wrong. They believe in the doctrine of re-incarna- tion, based on the belief that the harvest reaped by man is of his own sowing, and though not always immediately, yet inev- itably, every act must work out it's own results. We fully agree with this belief, but to make re-inoarnation motive power for our acts is not more than the Christian heaven and he'll theory.
 Judaism has not any system of reward and punishment. The highest motive given in Judaism is, "Thou shalt love the Lord, thy God, with all thy heart" As God is the ideal of truth, justice and kindness, those who are the best lovers of God are the truest imitators of these qualities practicing truth, justice and Kindness towards their felIow-men

 BIRMINGHAM, Dec. 27.-During the past week the water in the Housatonic has ris- en several feet, overfowing the lowland for miles up the river. This morning there were fully five feet of water flowing over the new dam, and a large number of spectators have been viewing the beautiful sight all day Sunday despite the cold and unfavorabl weather It is the first fresh ct of any importance this year and the eff rect on the new dam, which was but re- gently finished, is closely watched by Sec retary Brinsmade and together with other members of the Ousatonic Water com pany. But it seemingly stands the great pressure without waver in the structure. No great damage has been done by the water, with the exception of lower Derby docks which have been washed quite bad ly.
