DR. TALMA0E'.S LECTURE.

At least 1850 people saw the Rev Dr T. Dewitt Talmage and heard him lect- ure in the Opera House at Winsted or Wednesday evening of last week. He was introduced, or rather the audience was introduced to him in 8 very felic- itous manner by the Rev MT Voorhees,, the new pastor of the Second Congrega- tional 1 church of Winsted. The sub- ject of the lecture was: Big Blunders;' and for an honr and half Dr Talmage interested and instructed his hearers, and frequently received applause. His lecture was a rambling, disconnected one composed of humor. anecdote, pathos, common sense, serJnonizing and an attempt at eloquence. Dr Talmage, in our opinion, is not brilliant or clas. sic orator. It is what he says, instead of his manner of saying it, which gives him his fame and enables him to draw large audiences. His voice is harsh and his gestures ungraceful and often un. timely, and often when in the midst oi a pathetic or sublime sentence he sud. denly stops short and branches out on another line, but his quaintness or odd ity holds your attention even if you lose the thread of his discourse or lecture, provided there is a thread or connection between the different topics he rattles along with. As one expressed it who attended his lecture, 1T would rather read one of Dr Talmage's sermons thar to hear him preach it."
 Dr Talmage classed the "Big Blum ders" as follows: A multiplicity of oc equations. Bad temper. Excessive amusement. III domestic relations, and living without enthusiasm and energy

"NETADA." "

The Norfolk Athletic Club Dramatic Company acted the play known as Nevada, or the Lost Mine" at the town hall Monday evening. in the presence of an audience which filled the hall fairly we'll and watched the play with close attention and responded to all the fun ny incidents and good hits with hearty laughter and applause. The scene of the drama is laid in a mining camp in the far west. Nevada" one of the leading characters, is an old miner, who having discovered 8 wonderfully rich vein of gold, looses all trace of it but continues his ceaseless efforts to find it; needless to say that the mine is found all right, and when it's finding will do the most good, before the play is over. The story moves on rapidly and holds the interest of the audience to the end The two love affairs are happily con- cluded, old Nevada gets his mine and his slightly scattered wits and the "heavy villain" is pitched over a preci- pice. While all acted well, remsrka ply so for amatuers, and deserve common dable mention, we remark that w.. O'Connor as "Nevada" was very etfec- tive in the pathetic and tragic passages, that Miss Stevens made very spright ly and spirited "Moselle" and that H E.. Stevens and J. Hollister made good hits in the comic parts. "For further par ticulars see small bills"

Bessemer Steel.

This steel, as is pretty we'll known, is made directly from cast iron by forcing blast of air through the molten metal and by this means burning out part of the carbon contained in the iron. Bes- semer received $50. 900 from Ht TT Krupp for going to Essen in Germany and teaching the method of making Besse- mer steel at the gun works there.
 The largest Bessemer steel esta blish- ment in the world is at Sheffield, Eng. At that establishment they can convert twenty tons of iron into steel at one time. A two hundred horse power. engine is used at the blast furnace alone.
 Steel made by this process cannot be made equal to cast steel, but it is used for many purposes for which cast steel was formerly used, and takes the place of iron for many purposes, as it is near ly as low priced. It is wonderful what reduction it has made in the price of that article and cheapened the price of goods made of steel. Railroad steel that sold in 1870 for S125 per ton, can now be purchased for BPS.

Al Explosion in Hartford.

Last Saturday afternoon there was an explosion at the factory of the Aetna pyrotechaic works on Mechanic street in Hartford. The explosion was heard all over the city and for many miles around ;the force of the concussion was so great as to break panes of glass in all the neighboring houses. The building, a two story brick, was totally destroyed with large stock of fireworks material.
 Five people were killed and four in- jured. The cause of the explosion is not known. The loss on stock and
 plant is SIC. .000, the building was worth 5000; the loss is covered by insurance.

The Herald's Unfalteriag Faith.

In these days, when doubt is so prev alent and faith in the supernatural so seriously undermined among so many, it is very grateful te us to notice that one of our esteemed contemporaries preserves an unshaken belief in the inn mortality of the soul and the continuity of life beyond the grave. Silas 0. Beers, of Cornwall, died sn the 31st day of March of this year, leaving behind him an honored memory as we recorded at the time. Nevertheless in the last issue of the Winsted Herald we find a DOT trait of Silas c. Beers, of Cornwall, bear ing, possibly, some resemblance to him as he appeared on earth, also sketch of his earthly career. But the point, and what impressed us most of all, is, this startling averment, viz; He is (present time) one of the most respected and honored citizens of the town in which he ipes" The italics are ours. Of course the "town" alluded to is the Heavenly City. Who shall now say that we are not living in Ian age oi faith?'

SPREADING GOOD TIDINGs
An Instructive Lesson Given by Nj
Saral

An Instructive Lesson Given by Mrs.
Sarah Ii. Cooper.
The duty of spreading good tidings was
the subject Of the lesson in Mrs. Cooper's
Bible class yesterday. In the course of the
discussion the following points were
brought out: We all have good tidings to
spread, to greater or less degree. There
are too many prophets of evil. What the
world most needs Is brightness, not black
ness. Fault-fndipg may be very good in its
place, but there is altogether too much of il.
III you have something to plant throw up
the dirt and plant it, But there Is vast
deal Of dirt-throwing with no well ordained
purpose back of II. The demagogue de-
nounces existing evils; tile statesman pro-
poses remedy.
The verse Comfort We. comfort We nv
people. saith your God" was read. "Such a
verse" said the teacher, lis like a rift in
the cloud OF earthly care. II is like q rain
bow in the midst of the storm. This God of
all comfort can stimulate and inspire as
well as soothe. Thuse who would really
comfort must have strength as well as SYM
pathy. To strengthen sorrowiug soul
is to comfort that soul. The best
and quickest way out of trouble is to
60 to work. There can be no real peace for
those who live in sin. First pure, then
peaceable. Is the divine order of arrange
ment. The poor pr0digal could not be
eomforted until he turned away from the
husks and went home" Great emphasis
was laid upon the value of individual labor.
Every one has part to perform in prepar-
ing the way Of the Lord. Mrs. Cooper
spoke of those wilderness-trained souls
who came forth at just the right time to do
great WORK. 1t was so with Lincoln no
less than with John the Baptist. He had
his work to DO, and God had prepared him
for the work. Great problems are never
thought out on platforms. They are con-
ceived in the wilderness retreats of life.
They are born out of due time.

RIFLE PRACTICE.
Shell Mound Park Crowded With
Riflemen.
National Guardsmen Shoot for Medals-The
San Francisco schuetzen Verein and
the Germania Club.

The heavy gale which prevailed yesterday
was not hailed with delight by marksmen,
VINO intended to place good score to their
credit. On three different occasions the
marksmen at Shell Mound were compelled
10 cease firing to allow the markers TO re-
place the targets which the strong winds
nad blown from their fasteniugs. 1t is sur
prising that so many good scores were made
against such adverse circumstances.
Inc number Of marksmen upon the range
appears to increase at every contest. For
greater portion of the day 1t was neces-
sary Tor rlfiemen to take their place in line
ana wait their turn 10 shoot. On former
occasions rifleman was able to fire his ten
consecutive shots without interfering with
MS comrade. The interest in rifle matters
mas grown very rapidly recently and the
marksman is now perfectly satisfied if he is
aDie 10 get IN succeeding shot before his
gun gets cold
There was a large attendance of both
military and civic marksmen at Shell Mound
yesterday. Company Il of the Third Regi-
iDeht were out for regular monthly practice.

their members many cheers when the red
