THE EVENING SESSION.

The life and work of Rev. Jonathan Edwards was the topic of an interest ing address by Professor Williston Walker at the evening meeting of the first day of the General Conference of the Congregational Churches of Con- necticut at the Church of the Redeemer last night. An attendance of over two hundred people was present. Rev. Jon- athan Edwards, as leader in the re- ligious revival of the eighteenth cen- tury, was character of interest to all, and the manner in which the subject was handled appealed to the congrega- ton.
 Professor Walker began by briefly sketching the life of Jonathan Ed wards. He. entered Yale at the age of thirteen and graduated with the class of 1720. He then took three years in postgraduate course 10 further fit him for the ministry. At this time he also acted as an instructor. He next ac- cepted call to the pastorate of the Northampton church, which he held until 1750, when in his forty-seventh year he was put out by his congrega- tion, who did not agree with his views on Armenianism. For the remaining eight years of his life he acted as missionary to the Indians at Stockford. He died in 175S and the effect of his teaching was felt not only throughout New England, but spread to Scotland and leavened religious thought there in the early part of the nineteenth cen- tury.
 His most marked mental qualities as described by Professor Walker, were combination of keen philosophical in- sight, with poetic fervor and high wrought imagination. These qualities especially fitted him for the task of drawing the descendants of the Puri- tans from a merely onerous adherence to forms and ritual. His object was to instill real religious ardor into church. geers, and in this he succeeded.

POLICEMAN BARRY REDUCED.

Commissioners Find Him Guilty for
 Neglect of Duty and Lower Him from
 Grade B to Q-ade F.
 A regular meeting of the police com missioners was held last evening. The finance committee recommended that Policeman T. Powers be allowed ss for a new coat, his having been torn while making an arrest. The report was adopted.
 Captain Cowles turned in s1o to the board for the relief fund. It was some money which had been given his de- pertinent by John E. Heaton.
 The trial of Patrolman Barry for neg leet of duty then took place. The wit nesses included Mrs. Turbetty, Captain Brewer, Sergeant .Klaiber. Sergeant Mcbride and Policeman Flynn. Ser geant Klaiber said he knew nothing about the case, so he was excused. The witnesses testified in accordance with the facts in the case, and their evidence was exactly the same as was published in this paper at the time the charges were made. -
 Mrs. Turbetty told how her husband had driven her and her child out of doors early in the morning; how she had gone to Policeman Barry and re- lated the facts to him, and how he had refused to go back to the house. with her until he could get Policeman Flynn to go with him, although she told him at the time that her husband was drunk and was breaking up all the fur niture in the house. She waited some time for the policeman to go with her, and as he did not she complained to Sergeant Mcbride at the station. Barry came in fifteen minutes late on his re- port that morning.
 Barry told the commissioners that the reason he had not gone with the wo- man was because he wanted witness with him, as he thought that the city court would not convict the man unless he had one besides himself.
 The commissioners then went into executive session to consider the case, after which they announced that they had reduced Barry from grade B to grade D. They then adjourned.
