ever and again be eonvulsed by violent outbreaks of the less dangerous but more hideous kind among the other.
 Then, too, Governor Stone Is in a po- silion 10 know that the sending of troops into the coal regions will not amicably settle the dispute. It may break the strike. but it will not put out the smodering sense Of wrong in the breasts of the working people. We may suppress violence but will not right wrongs nor kindly dispose the injured toward the authority of the state. In my judgment he has shown the quali- ties not of a demagogue but of an of ficial who realized his great responsi- bility.
 This sermon Is not a defense of the conservatism of Governor Stone. But I could not resist the impulse, in pass ing, to say that there are some things which men in position of great respon- sibility see and feel which do not seem to occur to hysterical crowds at the ap- proach of calamity.
 But my thought is we are appeal ing to earthly powers alone in this time of trouble. l am certain settlement will be effected soon by these powers. Public opinion and clamor is too mighty tide to be long resisted. But even so it will not root out the sin and efface the dishonor to the Almighty am cry ing against-we are trusting in princes and looking alone to them for deliver araa.
 Have we forgotten there is another power to whom we can appeal? Is God dead, out of our thought? In the mad pursuit of selfish ends have we given up God and lost Him out os life alto gether? Is there no other being in the universe to whom we can go other than the rulers of this country? "I do not wish to be thought prophet of woe; but I tremble for any people that ceases to trust in God and to look up to Him. When the Israelites came to Canaan they conquered everywhere. They trusted in God and took the land. When they began to make alliances and 1 to depend upon these for victory their strength decayed; their fortunes waned.
 When a nation relies upon human power alone and refuses to look up to Almighty God, she is tottering on the verge of ruin am no Cassandra but speak the truth of history.

NIGHT OF A BIG WIND.
MANY TREES DOWN IN ALL
 PARTS OF CITT.

Large Limbs Strewn About the Town
 Flood Gates at West River Washed
 Avay-TraGe Blocked on whaIIsy
 Avenue-A Gale Prevailed for Six
 Hours.
 The value of the United States weather service was again demonstrat- ed Saturday. Southeast storm warn ings were displayed along the coast from Maine to Hatteras and numerous craft put into the local harbor before the storm reached this city. There were many sailing vessels among them and the aggregation presented beau tiful spectacle. The edge of the storm struck this city early Saturday evening but we were not in the center of it un- til 12 o'clock midnight. At that hour the velocity of the wind increased to a rapid velocity, blowing a gale, which increased constantly up to about 6 o'clock Sunday morning, when it reach ed it's maximum rapidity. It was the most momentous blow that has visited this section since 1893. Many trees in this city were blown down and numer- ous limbs were broke noff. Three trees were blown down on Hamilton street, near the railroad bridge. There was one down on Humphrey street near Wallace, one at the corner of Orange and Bradley streets, and one at the cor ner of Whalley avenue and Orchard street. This latter tree fell across the tracks of the Fair Haven and West vile railroad, blocking traffic on that thoroughfare for an hour. A large limb was broken off tree at the corner of Orange and Lawrence streets others at Olive street and Grand avenue. and Ferr wand Lombard strets. Wires were down on Greene street bewteen Chest ntu street and Wooster place, between Chest street and Fooster place, while there were two trees blown over in Wooster square. Another tree was , blown down on Hallock street.
 The tide was exceptionally high and the flood gates of teh West river bridge on Congress avenue were washed away. There were limbs of trees strewn all about the city. No damage to shipping has been reported. In West Haven many trees were bifurcated, limbs
 blown off and electric wires down on Washington avenue. Westville fortu- nately escaped the ravages of the i storm.
