rrJ:f A NATION'S ORE SECT. Bishop Andrews, in a Dedication, .Predicts Catholic Absorption BI THE PUBLIC SCHOOL MEDIUM. The Bplendid Kew M.E. Church in the West End Dedicated. SETEEAL TEE! IlirEESSITE SERVICES It was a beautiful early spring morning and this may in a measure hare accounted lor the large attendance at the dedicatory services of the West End M. E. Church, on South Main street. The church is a stone structure with a large auditorium and Sun day school annex. These were thrown into one room and every seat was occupied. The interior is very pretty, and its beauty was heightened by the addition of pots of plants and jars of flowers placed about the altar. The services were commenced by the choir rendering an anthem. The usual de votional exercises followed. Bishop E. G. Andrews delivered a sermon on the growth of the church. His remarks were interest ing, and some of his views were rather startling, especially those on Catholicism. A report of it follows: Has ever progress-been more steady than that which has marked the advance of Chris tianity? Great nations have come to call them selves Christians. We have Christian art. Christian morality and Christian love. Such facts as these have in themsehes the potency of a mighty revolution. Yet there are men who say although Christianity hs had such a won derful advancement, that some system, will be adopted which will adapt itself better to the wants and advanced ideas of man, and Chris tianity will be relecated to the past. EXTBEMES TO BE AVOIDED. We must not be too optimistic in our views, nor too pessimistic. Both arise from the tem perament of the man. I find it to be the case that the man who is pessimistic in the church is usually the man who has the most cause to lament his experience. Within a centurv the growth of this country lias increased from 4,000.000 to probably 6a. 000.000 a people who are charged with elec trical forces which quiver and move under the touch of Christianity. In less than a century a new island-continent has been added to Christianity. In my boyhood days I often read of convicts being transported to Botany Bay. The discovery of gold in Australia changed all this, and we may expect the growth of another great Christian continent. More than a century ago, when George "Washington was on tbciU-starredBraddock expedition, there was added, partially for good reasons and partly for bad, a vast domain in the Mediterranean basin, of 230,000.000 people, which is slowly becoming as grand as it erer was under the sway of the Roman Emperors. Japan has adopted the rule of dating its chronological events from the birth of Christ, as we do. This is another step in advance. Azain, we have the growth of Russia, from a small country to the vast empire of to-day, which is gradually spreading the Christian religion through the Eastern empires. At the time of the Reformation the guns of the Turks, with their Mohammedan religion, were thundering at the gates of Vienna, while to-day Turkey is known as the "Sick Man of Europe," and is only kept alive because Europe's Western powers do not know what to do with its effects should it die. CLOUDS HAVE EOLLED AWAY. A century ago portentous clonds hung above the horizon, and it was feared that the bar barism would crush civilization. To-day the clouds are dispelled, and we only fear that the Christian nation will not act honestly toward weaker nations and thus call down the wrath of God upon them. This fight between Christianity and its ad versaries is an old one. It is only a part of the early experience of the growth of the church. From the beginning Christianity has had a bit ter conflict. The modern arguments against the church to-day are only new forms of attack by an old enemy. Bishop Andrews then reviewed the argu ments of the philosophers of the past cent ury, and pointed out how they are now gradually declining and new ideas taking their places, which will in turn.rise and de cline as their predecessors. He begged that no Christian ministers would decry the study ot science, asit would in the end be found that Christianity and science will march side by side. Continuing, he said: There is a vast amount of infidelity, and a vast amount of sin; but I believe that God's sun never shone on a better day in America than it does to-day. The growth of the Chris tian church within the past 100 years has been wonderful. . The Dranches of Christendom are: First, the Greek church. In this religion there is a con junction of btate and religion, which is always detrimental to Christianity. Second, in the Roman church, making a distinction between the papal people and the rulers of the church. I can see but little hope for the power of the latter. These mandates are each year more and more disobeyed. The old doctrine of the In fallibility of the Pope and the immaculate con ception, once so firmly believed, is 2JOAV BEING DOUBTED, and Its upholders are scoffed. The former have shaken off their bonds, and to-day Protestants may preach the word in Italy and Spain, which but a few years ago would have been severely Sunished. This has happened in our day. lany more incidents similar to the few I have mentioned could be related In America we have great reason for vigi lance, and possibly in the end sacrifice; but to dav I have but little to fear. This Roman church Is losing continually and unmeasurably. If they continue to keep their children in our public schools, even if they are not taught Protestantism, the children cannot help but breathe the air of America's freedom, and can not help but become Americans; and if so, they will become Protestants. The Immigration which is now 'pouring into our gateways consists of many Protestants. If we but take care of ourselves, and continue our labors, it cannot be otherwise than that America must and will become entirely a Prot estant conntrv. The speaker then reviewed the growth of the Protestant church, and the advance ment of more Christ-like ideas, and closed with a very optimistic prediction as to the future greatness of this church and Chris tianity. Mr. George B. Johnston, Secretary of the Board of Trustees, read a , statement of the expenditures on this church. Its total cost was $42,890. Of this amount $25,890 had been paid, leaving a balance due of $17,000. This amount was divided into 1,700 shares of 510 each, payable in two years on month ly installments. Shares may be purchased from 1 to 500. Certificates of stock will be issued to subscribers by the Board of Trus tees. AS INDEFATIGABLE PASTOR. Much credit is due Rev. H. C. Bcacom, pastor of the church, through whose individ ual efforts much of the necessary money was collected and the structure erected. A platform meeting was held in the after noon. Addresses were made by Kev. J. IT. Miles, presiding elder of the Pittsburg dis trict; B. T. Miller, D. D.; Bishop Andrews and H. L. Chaplain, D. D. With the ex ception of Bishop Andrews the speakers were former pastors of the church. Their remarks were of a congratulatory nature. Efforts were also made by them in their re marks to obtain subscriptions. C. 2f. Smith, D.D.. editor of the Pittsburg Christian Advocate, delivered an address in the evening. The solemn dedicatory ser vices of the Methodist Cnurch were con ducted bv Bishop Andrews at this session, and the church was formally given over to worship of God. During the dav almost $10,000 was raised by subscription," leaving the actual debt of the church now about $7,000. Don't spend yonr money without reflec tion, you can buy Salvation Oil for 25 cents.

Blackwell, of the Bentley-Knight electric street railway system, is credited with having said, while in this city a day or two ago, that no more -local street railways would adopt the trac tion system, owing to its enormous expense, but that nearly all of them would, without a doubt, soon be operating on the Bentley Knicht plan the system now in use on the Observatorv hill line in Allegheny. Colonel James Andrews is now in Boston investigating the system for application to the Pleasant Valley line here; the reorgan ized Second avenue company is also figur ing on its adoption; likewise the Western avenue line, the Pittsburg and Birmingham and Allegheny's contemplated Crosstown road. FANATICISM IN CHDECH. Its Work Hai Done More Barm Than Good Among Christians. The talk of the Kev. E. P. Cowan, of the Third Church, Sixth avenue, upon "Fanati cism," dwelt entirely upon the zealous, the enthusiast and the fanatic. The last named, he said,di d more harm than good, for he had passed the limit of sound reasoning, and was urged on by blind insanity. He touched upon the fanatic in history, and closed with an eloquent plea for the real earnest Christian. An Influential Guest. In catching public interest Deceit is seldom winner; You'll have conviction for your guest When there are facts for dinner. If your anxiety is caused by sickness it can be set at rest only by such facts as these: Dks. Stakkey & Pales: "I hadpleuro pneumonia. Your Compound Oxygen Treat ment cured me.'" Jos. S. Hoakd, A o. 67 Main St, Mansfield, Pa. DBS. Starkey fc Palxn: "Ssince using your Compound Oxygen Treat ment my lungs are sound and well." W. B. Hinton, Smlthville, Ga. Drs. Starkey & Palen's office records show over 15,000 different cases in which their Com pound Oxygen Treatment has been used by physicians in their practice and Dy invalids in dependently in cases of consumption, bron chitis, asthma, catarrh, dyspepsia, nervous prostration,rheumatism, neuralgia, and all com plaints of a chronic nature. Their brochure of 200 pages will be forwarded free of charge to anv one addressing DBS. Stakket fc Palen, 1529 Arch street, Philadelphia, Pa. at rA Hundred Tons oi Money. It hardly seems possible that the money paid in one month for a 10-cent article could, if pen nies were used in payment, weigh 100 tons. Yet one of our bright schoolboys has figured that this is true of Diamond Dyes. To jndge from the stocks of our dealers in dye stuffs. Diamond Dyes own the field of package dyes, and are a complete success. Of course they have imitators. "Nothing is a success until imitated." But no one wants to risk a counter feit when the genuine can be obtained at the same price. Three new colors have lately been added to the list of Diamond Dyes: Fast stock ing b'ack. Turkey red for cotton and brown for cotton. The manufacturers, Wells,Rlchardson Co.,Burlington,Vt,will send colored samples of these new dyes, with book of directions, to any address, free of charge. These additions seem to have made the line so complete that any shade can be matched with some color of Dia mond Dyes. The beautiful sample book of shaded colors, lately sent to all dealers in dyes, wnll delight the eye of any lady. "It's easy to dye with Diamond Dyes," is so absolutely true that home dyeing is no longer a difficult and disagreeable task. Almanacs, with their hints as to proper times for different work, tell us that now is the time for spring dyeing. This, together with the thought of that 100 tons of money, leads us to ask what schoolboy can fig ure how many thousands of ladies are now saying that this is the time to use Diamond Dyes. India Silks. Onr stock of new figured India silks is particularly attractive both in novelty of designs and colorings as well as in the ex tent of assortment We speciallv mention onr 27 in. 75c grade, the actual value of which is $1 25 pr. yd.
