LATEST FAIR HAVEN NEWS
Words of Praise ON the Lutte Queen by
Rev. T., w. stone Funeral of Miss
Ferris VIII be Held TO-day--John
Hudson Improving.

Hudson Improving.
At the Grand avenue Baptist church
yesterday morning the pastor, Rev. r..
W. Stone preached an interesting ser
mon on the life and influence of Queen
Victoria. His subject was 1.-The Pass
ing of Good Woman"
From the standpoint Of the world
there have been rulers whose reign may
have been regarded as more brilliant
said the speaker. And yet there mas
been no nation that has made greater
strides in progress than has England
during the sixty-three years OF the reign
of Victoria. The reign of Elizabeth
may have been more brilliant. Queen
Victoria has for many years lived IN
complete retirement, but in the nobllty
of life none has exceeded her. she mas
lived a pure, clean life. Her court was
pure No corrupt person has been ad-
mitted to her court knowingly. She has
set a standard for noble living, and 1t
is to be hoped that the promise OF the
new king to the privy council, that IL
would be his aim to follow in the exam
ple of his mother, may be kept.
God continues to work in human life
to-day. and it is to this end that I call
YOUR attention to the passing of this
queen from her throne. The text sug-
gests it. She was good woman and
lust. From her went out ten thousand
ministries for good. She was good
woman, good ruler and good mother,
and hers was a Christ life-a complete
Christian life. Her trust and sole de-
pendence was in God. She leaned upon
His strong and everlasting arm.
cat the very beginning of her reign,
at the palace in Kensington, she knelt
and asked the blessing of God on her
self and her people, and is it any Won
der that her reign was blest? In her
palaces and chapels were sung the
Grand old Christian hymns, and she
loved the reading of the Holy Scrip
lures.
"She was of a sympathetic nature, full
Of love for her people. When only TWEEN
ty years of age, and almost at the be-
ginning Of her reign, she manifested in
terest in better education for the
masses and thus began the wonderful
system which prevails in her Kingdom
for the instruction and elevation OF the
people. The suffering soldiers in the
Crimea were remembered in her kind
ministries. Many are the interesting
stories of her highland life in her castle
and at Balmoral. There was no wreck,
railroad accident or any striking prl-
waite trouble that she did not send her
coincidence. No wonder that there
should flow out such affection from her
British subjects, and that they should
look upon her more as mother than
queen. She had great tact and gentle
ness and love. Her love for her hus-
band, Prince Alfred, was almost devo-
ton.
"This woman hated war. She once
averted war between England and this
country. 1t was after the English com
missioners had been taken from the
steamer Trent during the War OF the
Rebellion that Lord John Russell alter
ed his note to this country, at her re-
ouest, that Secretary Seward was able
to avert declaration of war. Ana
