Several boards about 10 feet long and orna- ments on the spire of the Methodist church on Church- street were blown down about 6 o'clock and the swaying of the spire caused fear of its total collapse. Very fortunately no persons or property other than the steeple was injured . . The officials of the church at a meet- ing in the evening voted to have an examination of the steeple at once and to have such repairs done as will make it safe. - The sidewalk in front of the church property was closed to traffic by order of the city authorities. The chimney on the residence of William H. Burlingham on Prospect street was blown down also, doing damage to the roof. A window in Chief Richmond’s office at police head- quarters was broken by the wind, al- 50 a bay window in Hall’s block, corner of Main and Walnut streets was de- molished by the gale. A plate glass door at Comtoirs’ furniture establish- ment was completely demolished. METHODISTS IN CONFERENCE. Sub-Distriot Meeting Presided Over by Rev. J. H. Newland of Norwich.
