FEW CASES VERB DISPOSED OF
 YESTERDAY.
No Action in the Bribery Case-Applica- ton for Receiver of the Oxford Bra ss Company Dcnied-Matters in the City Court.

Court.
 No action has been taken in the al- legged bribery case in North Haven. One of the selectmen said yesterday that they had taken no action in the case It was not for them to act, but for the law authorities. The selectmen did not propose to mix up in the case, as they did not consider it to be with in their province.
 One of the grand jurors wrote to Constable Larkin to come to see him Wednesday in reference to the case, but the latter has been sick in bed sev- eral days, and it is understood he was unable to go and see the law officer. It is believed that some action would have been taken this week, but for MT. Larkins' illness. It was stated yester- day that an action would undoubtedly be brought if the town authorities de- cided that they have sufficient testi- mony.

 your return and then how you are to surmount those obstacles. The first diff ficulty In the way of your return is the force of moral gravitation. Just as there is natural law which brings down to earth anything you throw into the air So there is corresponding moral gravi- tation. I never shall forget a prayer I heard young man make in the Young Mems Christian Association of New York. With trembling voice and stream ing eyes he said: 70 God thou knowest how easy it is for me to do wrong and how hard 1t is for me to do right! God help me!' That man knows not his own heart who knows not the power of moral gravitation.
 In your boyhood you had good asso- ciates and bad associates. Which most impressed you? During the last few years you have heard pure anecdotes and impure anecdotes Which the easiest stuck to your memory? You have had good habits and bad habits. To which did your soul more easily yield? But that moral gravitation may be resisted. Just as you may pick up anything from the earth and hold 1t in your hand to- ward heaven, just so, by the power of GOu grace, SOui may Dc lllIcQ toward peace, toward pardon toward salvation. The force of moral gravitation is in every one of us, but also power in Gods grace to overcome that force.
 The next thing in the way of your re- turn is the power of evil habits. I know there are those who say it Is very easy for them to give up evil habits. I cannot believe them. Here is g. man given to intoxication, who knows it is disgrac- H. x.kx and ruining him-body, mind and soul If that man, being an intelligent man and loving his family, could easily give up that habit would he not do so? The fact that he does not give 1t up proves that it is hard to give it up. It Is & very easy thing to sail down stream, the tide carrying you with great force; but sup pose you turn the boat up stream, is 1t so easy then to row it? As long as we yield to the evil inclinations in our heart and to our bad habits we are sailing down stream, but the moment we try to turn we put our boat in the rapids just above Niagara and try to row up stream
 Slavery to Habit.
 A physician tells his patient that he must quit the use of tobacco, as 1t is destroying his health. The man replies, q can stop that habit easy enough. " He qultS the use or Lne WeSu. ne Boen around not knowing what to do with himself. He cannot add up column of figures; he cannot sleep nights It seems as if the world had turned up side down. He feels his business is going to ruin. Where he was kind and obliging he is scolding and fretful. The composure that characterized him has given away to a fretful restlessness, and he has become a complete fdget What power is it that has rolled a wave of woe over the earth and shaken a potent in the heavens? He has quit tobacco. After a. while he says: T am going to do as I please. The doc ], tor does not understand my case. I am going back to my old habits" And he returns. Everything assumes its usual composure His business seems to brighten. The world becomes an attrac- tive place to live in. His children, seeing the difference hail the return of their fa-

Washington. November 10.-In this dis course pr. Talmage depicts the struggle of man who desires liberation from the enthrallment of evil and shows how he may be set free; text, Proverbs xxiii. s5: "When shall awake? I will seek 1t yet again."
 With an insight into nature such as words is sketching the mental processes of a man who has stepped aside from the path of rectitude and would like to return. Wishing for something better, he says: When shall I awake? When shall l get over this horrible nightmare of lniquity?' But seized upon by unerad- icated appetite and pushed down hill by his passions, he cries out: 'T will seek it yet again. I will try it once more!'
 About a mile from Princeton, N. J., there Is skating pond. One winter day, when the ice was very thin, farmer liv- ing near by warned the young men of the danger of skating at that time. They all took the warning except one young man. He, in the spirit of bravado, said, Boys one round more" He struck out on his skates, the ice broke, and his lifeless body was brought up. And in all mat ters of temptation and allurement it is not a proiongation that is proposed, but only just one more indulgence, just one more sin. Then comes the fatality. Alas, for the one round more! q will seek it yet again"
 Our libraries are adorned with elegant literature addressed to young men point ing out to them all the dangers and perils of life-complete maps of the voyage of life-the shoals, the rocks. the quick sands. But suppose a young man is all ready shipwrecked, suppose he is already off the track, suppose he has already gone astray, how can he get back? That is a question that remains unanswered, and amid all the books of the libraries find not one word on that subject To that class of persons I this day address myself
 You compare what you are now with what you were three or four years ago, and you are greatly disheartened. You are ready with every passion of your soul to listen to a discussion like this. Be of good cheer! Your best days are yet to come I offer you the hand of welcome and rescue. I put the silver trumpet of the gospel to my lips and blow one long, loud blast, saying, "Whosoever will let him come, and let him come now The church of God is ready to spread ban quet upon your return, and all the hier- archs of heaven fall into line of hammered procession over your redemption.
 Years ago, and while yet Albert Barnes was living, preached in his pulpit one night to the young men of Philadelphia In the opening of my discourse I said; 70 Lord, give me one soul tonight" At the close of the service MT. Barnes in troduced a young man, saying: This is the young man you prayed for" But see now it was too limited prayer. offer no such prayer today. It must take in a wider sweep. Lord, give us all these souls today for happiness and heaven"

 Hesitation Is Ruin.
 The young man hesftated at a time when hesitation was ruin. and the bad angel smote the good angel until 1t de-
 parted, spreading wings through the starlight, upward and away, until a door swung open in the sky and forever the wings vanished. That was the turning point in that young mans history. for, the good angel flown, he hesitated no longer, but started on pathway which
