AT GRACE M. E. CHURCH.

A Sermon in Preparation for "Meth-
 odist Day,'-A Special Talk to Rail-
 road Men in the Evening on "Dan.
 ger signaIs.,,
 Rev. Frank A. Seofeld preached most interesting sermon before large congrega- ton at tho Grace M. E. church yesterday morning. His subject was "Fire, Forms and Forces of Methodism, and the sermon was preparatory to ''Methodist day." next Wednesday, which commemorates the com ing of Jesse Lee to New Haven, June 20, 17S9,. this being the 105th anniversary. His text was "And they continued stead fastly in the spostles' doctrine and fellow ship and in breaking of bread and in pray ers."-Acts il, 42.
 The preacher first gave brief outline of the early church history and then spoke of the organizing of the Methodist church and showed how the clements of the early church were incorporated into the modern Methodist church. Continuing he said:
 "Methodism has been denominsted Chris. tianity on fre.'
 From the beginning the church has been characterized by enthusiasm. What its early ministers lacked in collegiate train ing they more than made up in burning enthusiasm and earnestness. This fire of enthusiasm is seen in their hymnology, in it's burning, heart-searching preaching and
 in its prayer meetings"
 The second topic of the sermon was the
 Methodist form of worship. He gave a description of the magnificent old Hebrew worship and of the other realistic churches, and described the simple form of the Meth dist church, and explained also the Metho- dist church government by bishops, minis ters, elders, deacons. exhorters and class leaders; also the conferences, love feasts and other church festivals.
 The third topic was the forces in the Methodist church. These, he said, were to bs found not go much in it's forms as in it's doctrine, in which there were four points to be noted. CD A possible saliva | tion for every man. @ The direct wit | ness of the spirit. (3) Knowledge of sal | vation. (4) Holiness of heart and life. In the evening Mr. Scofeld spoke be fore large number of railroad mer ] who were present by special invitation His subject was Danger Signals of His tory" He drew his Illustrations from tn. | signals used by engineers and railroad men-the red light and the long, ehril ! whistle for danger, and gave very inter | esting practical discussion.

SEARCHING FOt THE BODY.

--~S FOh THE EDDY.
 The Sad Drowning Case at Lake
 Whitney.
 The news of the drowning of Clinton B. Hague on Saturday night, while out boat ing on Lake Whitney, was the topic ot conversation about town yesterday. After supper on Saturday evening in company with W. H. Bean of 40 Pleasant street he walked out to ths lake to enjoy rowing during the COO! of the evening. They hired canoe from Joseph A. Blskssley, the boatman at the head of the lake, and started off on their trip up the lake.
 Bean psddled the canoe while Hague sat in the bow.
 When within few hundred feet of the second bridge, about opposite the Whit neville Congregational church, Hague suggested to Bean that he paddle the canoe for while and Bean consented. Hague stood up in the boat for the pur- pose of changing seats with his companion Bean had rested his paddle and was pre- pairing to change his position in the canoe He was looking back as soms object astern. While thus engaged the frail canoe sud denly veered over on It's beam and capslzed. Hague, who was stand ing in the canoe all this time, was thrown into the water head foremost and at some distance from the craft. Bsan was also thrown into the water. When Bean came to the surface he found that the canoe had drifted about twelve feet from him Hague was struggling in the water few feet away and he swan for him.
 Bean says that he knew that Hague was no swimmer and his first thought was to save him. He struck out for Hague and grssped him by his clothes. Bean rolled over on his back and held Hague above the water as much as possible until he reached the overturned canoe, which by this time had drifted farther away. As soon as he took hold of the canoe Hague began to struggle violently, which made his rescue more difficult Both sank and Bean lost his hold on Hague. When he came to the surface again Hague was nowhere in sight. He did not come to the surface again after he released his hold on Bean, but tmmedi- ately went down and was drowned.
 MT. Bean returned to Blakes1ee's and then started up the road to the house of Barney Barnard, whose duty 1t is to patrol | the lake. Barnard rowed to the spot where Hague had disappeared, and with 6 set of yrappling irons dragged about in the vi- ,inity where the accident occurred. A party started out about 10 o'clock from Clark street to look for the body and made arrangements with Barnard 10 drag for the body. All day yesterday Pratt, Bean and his father and . number of the members of the New Haven Yacht ,lub and the Naval battalion were out on ths lake, but were not able to find the l body. The party labored until near mid. night last night without success.
 The deceased was about thirty-two years | ,f age. He was formerly in business with ! Bean under the firm name of the New Ha- | 7eu Insulated Wire company, but the plant ! vas recently destroyed by fire Hague was | member of the New Haven Yacht club, ! Naval militia and the Gounod society. ]
