AT TRINITY M. ,E, CHURCH.
Sermon by Rev. B. F. Kidder--The
 Ministers Opinion of Whist

Sermon by Rev. B. F. Kidder--The
 Ministers Opinion of Whist.
 At the Trinity M E. church yester- day morning the Rev. B. F. Kidder preached from the text found in He brews 12:1,2 Wherefore, seeing we al so are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author, and finisher of our faith" In all ages there have been those who have testified to the value of religion. There are certain weights which it is necessary for Chris tians to remove before they can give such testimony.
 He said: Last Sunday after the ser mon young man, a member of this church, came up to me and said he was member of whist club of six, all of whom were church members, and asked me what he ought to do. I asked him if he would like to have me, his minister, join his club, and play whist and he said he would not, and I told him that if playing whist would injure the testimony of a Christian minister, it seemed to me it would hurt the tes- timony of Christian ,layman As it was with this young man, so it is with all"

It's Work in the West Reported by MT. Sargent and Professor Brewer of Yale University


 It's Work in the West Reported by MT. Sargent and Professor Brewer of Yale University.
 San Francisco, Cal, Sept. 13-C. $. | Sargent, of Brookline, Mass, chair
 man of the United States commission to
 examine and report on the timber re- gions of the west, the national parks
 and reservations, has arrived here af-
 ter long tour through what is left of the American wilderness. He is ac- companied by Professor William H.
 Brewer of Yale, General w. H. Ab-
 bolt of the engineer corps of the army, l geolgical survey, and John Minor of the commission.
 T do not know that can give you | any startling details regarding our trip or our purposes" said Mir Sargent
 'but what I have is at your disposal. This commission was appointed by the | national academy at the request of the secretary of the interior It is the na- tional forestry commission, as gener- ally known. We have been out since
 July 2, and have travelled nearly 1000
 miles by wagon and made long dis tances on horseback over elk trails and in all kinds of country. We have been in the Yellowstone park, in the wild timber regions of northern Montana and northern Idaho, ascended Mt. Hood and Mt. Tacoma, visited Crater
 lake, and also went to the wild Olym-
 pic mountains in western Washington 16 n,YY, t.iy
 by a trip through Del Norte coun-
 ty and a portion of Humboldt
 Tt is now our intention to visit the Sierras, San Jacinto, San Gabriel and
 other places. Professor Agassiz, who
 is one of the commissioners, has not been able to be with us. Professor
 Clifford Pinchot of New York, whose life speciality has been forestry, is also one of the commissioners. He is in the Yosemite valley, where he has been some time. He will probably vis- it Kings river reservation and join us a little later. When we have finished our inspection We will make a full re- port. The forest fires of the northwest are so widespread, the smoke so dense that there has been only one time when we could get an extended view of the country. about us This was when we were in the Olympic mountains"
 Professor William H. Brewer of Yale said that the prime object of the com mission was to devise means to pre- serve the forests from fires, theft and other depredations. He says there are about 100000 acres of timber in the west. 'I have been constantly sur- prised during this trip said he, ito notice the wanton destruction of the great forests. I also noticed the in roads among the redwoods, those great forest giants, that ought to be preserved as a heritage for future generations"

KIERNAN's SALOON RAIDED.
The Down-Town Patrolmen Make a Big Haul-Windows and Doors Smashed

The Down-Town Patrolmen Make a
 Big Haul-Windows and Doors
 Smashed.
 Patrolmen Linsley, Kelly, Bellman and John Roche raided Thomas Kier- mans saloon, at 50 Walnut street, yes- terday morning. They captured seven men and took charge of several bot ties of whiskey, lot of lager, large pail of ale and the bar fixtures. When the officers made their appearance at the saloon there were about twenty men and boys in the barroom drinking, smoking and enjoying themselves in the most approved Sunday morning barroom style. Evidently the spotters, if any had been employed, were not on the alert, as the policemen were in the room before the crowd was aware of their presence in the vicinity. When the men found that they were in a trap there was a general scramble for the different exits. The man who had charge of the business took one of the windows as the means of escape. When he went out the sash followed him.
 There was a scramble for the doors, one of which was torn from it's hinges The other was guarded by an officer. The bar was demolished in the general disorder, and the barroom looked very much as if it had been the storm cen- ter Of a Texas tornado.
 The four policemen marched the sev- en men out into the street The names of the violators of the Sunday law are William Jeffers, James Farrell, Michael Baker. Patrick Appleby, Daniel Foley, James McHugh and James Kerrigan
 Thomas Kiernan, the proprietor, will be arrested this morning. He is an old offender, having been arrested twice for violating the liquor law. He was at one time at S47 Grand avenue.

DAMAGED STILL FURTHER.

The Fishhook Shop Fire-The Heavy
 Rain Did Much More Damage
 The fire at the fishhook shop on Ar tizan street left the top of the building exposed to the elements, the roof being burned off, and the drenching rain of Saturday night did much more damage to the costly and delicate machinery in the upper floors and to the fine and costly wire, quantities of which were ruined.
 The total amount of insurance on the fire was $17,000, all of which was placed by the Security company of New Ha- ven, the risks being in about dozen different companies.

MANY CONGRATULATIONS
For the Victor Club, Winner of the Valley
 League Pennant.

League Pennant.
 Bridgeport, Sept. 2O.-Manager O'Rourke of the Victor baseball club of this city, which carried off the pennant of the Naugatuck Valley league, re- ceived a great many congratulations to-day from his athletic friends Un- der his management the Victors slowly but surely climbed from their position as "tailenders" at the beginning of the season to the leaders in the league. This was done with but one or two changes in the makeup of the club The same nine men appeared regularly on the diamond, with but one or two exceptions, and from his position be- hind the bat Manager ORourke direct ed his players. Manager Jim says he is all the more proud of his men for the reason that they are all Bridgeport boys, "schoolboys," as a great many of the baseball cranks in the valley know them,
 The success of this years team is a voucher that Bridgeport will be repre- scented the coming season in the Nau- gatuck Valley or a more extensive league. The plan of the directors of the league towards the close of the sea- son has been to include some of the central and larger cities of the state in the league that will be formed next spring. The idea suits Manager O'Rourke, and he will be one of the first to agitate a state league in '97.
 The Victors have been favored with good attendance at nearly all of their home games, and on the whole the club has been a good business venture

In diplomatic circles in London the belief
grows that Lord Salisbury will shortly
withdraw from the post of foreign minister,
but that he will retain the prime minister
ship. Lord Lansdowne formerly governor
general Of India, ia most likely to succeed
him in the foreign office. Lord Salisbury's
reputation as foreign minister was almost
wholly due to the belief that he was the
favorite English statesman with the triple
alliance But the new principle Of con-
tinuity in the British foreign policy has
compelled him to prosecute Lord Rosebery's
Armenian, Chinese and Japanese policies,
with the result that he displeased Germany.
Public opinion will not tolerate the idea of
British Tapproche nent with Germany,
and working entente with France is inn
possible without the approval of Russia,
which owes Lord Salisbury personal grudges
dating from the negotiations of the treaty Of
Berlin.
RECENT advices from Australia tell OF
terribly hot weather there during the month
OF January. The death-rate from sunstroke
has been excessively high. In great many
sections the crops were ruined, In Queens
land 113 degrees in the shade was the re-
corded Temperature, and in many places in
Australia the thermometer reached 1859 in
the shade. On one day previous to the sail
ing oil the Miowera' eighty people were
| Inferred at Sydney. So great was the de-
mand for graves that managers Of ceme-
teries had to engage u number of assistants.
Nearly all OF those who succumbed were
infants and aged persons. In the crowded
commercial centers citizens were walking
the streets all night. Records were coming
in from the north, east, south and west OF
the terrible heat. Sheep and cattle were dy-
ing q droves for want of fodder and water.
IL was reported that in Queensland, New
South Wales and Victoria the heat had
never been so excessive. Men, women, chill
dren and horses dropped down in the streets
and died before assistance could reach them
To add to the distress, scarlet fever and
other epdemics prevailed in many localities
