BERKELEY SERMON.
Sermon by Rev. J. Lewis Parks.

Sermon by Rev. J. Lewis Parks
 The fourth of the course of Berkeley sermons was preached last Sunday evening at Trinity church on the Green by the Rev. J. Lewis Parks, s. T. D. Dr. Parks took for his text: Thou therefor, my son, be strong in the faith that is in Jesus Christ" 2 Tim. ii 1. He said briefly:
 The life of a university is life of it's own. with it's own laws A mans first llesson at college is to open his eyes and close his mouth and respect his bet ters." When he gets into the world he knows no betters. Then comes the test of his strength which is determined | by those with whom he consorts. He ilearns patriotism, which is an essen- italy manly and Christian virtue. Men come to college who have had strict Puritanical training and they try all | sorts of evils for pleasure. Then there are the rich and the weak and also j those who were corrupt before they came.
 A man in looking for his friends
 wants one who is manly. strong and courageous But he must determine
 what constitutes true manhood and courage.
 l Set side by side the courage of Ar mold and that of Washington, in the T face of oppression which could subor-
 dinate himself for the nation?
 A mans moral courage is shown 1T
 the choice of his friends. There arc
 plenty of men to call vice manhood and
 laugh at the man who is chaste and
 unsullied. A man must not cheat ir
 his examinations He must learn to bt
 modest in his testimonies. But tht
 greatest question which demands cour
 age is whether he can retain his be
 lief in God and in life in the face O all the theories and skepticisms whic1 are brought up before him as part O
 the red tape" of college life. It seem almost universal that dobling is a par
 Of thinking. It is part of the influx o ideas. It has always accompaniet

 What is the remedy? The first thin! is to seek wise counsel if you can fint the right man; a wise and sympatheti

THIRD DoRsoHr CONCERT.

 sigourn.y an Excellent vIolin,st.

stgournsy an Excellent vioIinist.
 The Dorscht lodge orchestra gave an- other of its excellent concerts last even ing, the audience being the largest or the season, filling the Hyperion from pit to dome.
 Two features were perhaps responsl- ble for the unusually large attendance. One the ''Parsifal'' music, and the other the appearance of Miss Belle Manross Sigourney, violinist.
 In Wagner's sacred music-drama the student may find much to study. not alone in it's peculiar and original con- struction, but in the curious and weird blending of instruments which charac- terizes all os the later works of thls foremost German writer. The work as presented last evening showed much study and while several slight inaccur- acies were noticed. they in themselves only went to prove we have most excellent organization in our midst, ca pablo of such a task. The sombre color demanded by the score was we'll pre- served and the first rendition of the various excerpts of the much heralded "Parsifal'' may be said to have been a fine success and was undoubtedly ap- preciated by the large audience. A dainty number was the Cradle song by Hans Saro, the composer being noticed in one os the boxes. The com position was one of the sweetest ever played by the orchestra and was lis tened to with great pleasure. The gen eral impression was that Herr Saro, who is a Waterbury musician. should favor the public with more such music
 Miss Sigourney, the violinist, proved an excellent and popular soloist, being recalled several times after each of hel numbers. She possesses a charming lstage presence and plays with cer- tanty and ease which are delightful Her tone is refined and adequately larg' land her execution and tonation facilt
 and accurate. She displayed some fin'
 double stopping in the Austrian Hymn
 which she gave as a well demanded
 encore. In schumann's ''Traumerei'' { beautiful and sympathetic tone wal | given with rare delicacy. Miss Sigour lney is also favorably known her through her teaching.
 The next Dorscht concert will talk lplace February 2S.

THE PRESIDENTS GALL.
Outline Of Scope Of the Proposed
Second Hague Peace
Conference.

Washington, Oct. 31.-In q circular
note Secretary Hay has carried out the
presidents instructions relative to
proposing a second Hague conference.
The note not only contemplates the re-
assembling of The Hague conference
for the consideration of questions spe-
cifcally mentioned by the original con-
ference, as demanding further atten-
ton, such as the rights and duties Of
neutrals; the inviolability Of private
property in naval warfare and the
bombardment Of ports by naval forces,
but goes further by practically indors-
Ing the project Of general system OF
arbitration treaties and the establish
nient OF an international congress to
meet periodically in the interests of
peace. The issue Of the call while the
present war is in progress is justified
BY the fact that the first Hague con-
ference was called before our treaty of
peace with Spain was concluded.
