Evangelical vmurcu. ouuui j-wcmy-sevenui, preached nis lareweil sermon yesterday morning, or as he put it, not his farewell sermon, bnt bis last as pastor of the church. In the sermon he made several references to the trouble in the church. He said: "The wicked cannot bear the light. Holl- . cess, zeal for God, 'well doing,' are detested by the carnal mind. And, if they can do no more, they trill traduce the character of the righteous and if possible cripple their usefulness." Suddenly stopping, the speaker said: "I want that to have time to soak in." Following the sermon, Rer. Mr. Melhorn read a copy of the call issued by the church to him iu 1SG2, and then read the following ex planation of his situation: "As in every congregation, there were a few in this one,wno seemed neverto be satisfied, ex cept when they were doing the work of the treat Adversary. The congregation was never In a more prosperous condition, up to the last communion on Easter. THE J.ABGEST STJMBEB communed on that day that ever communed in this church at any one time. And 17 new mem bers were added. While many of the faithful ones were here at that time, engaged in the solemn service of commemorating the passion of our dear Lord, the emissaries of the wicked one were pluttoning the passions by sowing the seeds of discord and schism, alien atinc the membership and rending the body of Christ by nightly traveling the hills and valleys, sowing tares among the wheat; and. Judging from the amount of 'blowing' they have done, and the disgrace they have entailed on the congregation, by misrepresentation to reporters of papers, the brethren would sup pose that they bad secured at least one-half of the names of the membership on the paper they were circulating. ' '-But what is tbe fact? Out of a membership now on the record of 304 they prevailed on 41) to sign their paper, two of whom have declared that their names must be taken oft One name was put on while the lady was in bed a sleep, and without her knowledge and consent, leaving them 38 names, counting drones and all: for at least 20 of their signers are' not en titled to a vote In the church. They have one eighth of the entire membership so disgusted at their disorderly and unchristian conduct that they feel that they cannot affiliate or wor ship with them any more, ALL BROKEN UP. "Fifty-three of the members have applied for their letters of standing in the congregation during the last week, with a view at no far dis tant day to hand them in elsewhere. I have urged them to stick to theenurch and not allow themselves to be pushed out bj the ene mies of peace and harmony, and the Lord will reward them and punish. the ungodly for their ungodly deeds, for He has said, 'Vengeance is mine; 1 will repay. "Shall that one-eighth rule of ruin? For my part 1 can't stay to tight the case; it is the con- Segation's duty. Their conduct has driven 3m the Sunday school six of the teachers, and largely of their classes, reducing the num ber of schools to a small fraction.

Mr. Melhorn and many morede- L their allegiance to him. It was proposed discipline the dissenting members, and Rev. Mr. Melhorn was asked if he would stay with them; but he gave no promise. A meeting of the congregation, to take action in the matter, will probably be called in a few days. On the other hand, the members of the fac tion opposed still persist in their action, and say that they may form another congregation. All in all, still more startling things may be ex pected from the schism in the little church. Whisky mils. How often are we yet to be told that whis ky kills? Arsenic kills, opium kills, and bo do hundreds of otfier good remedies kill if abused instead of used. But ask the Snestion "Will whisky cure?" "Yes" is le positive reply of the most eminent phy sicians of all the land. Disease steals into Tour system like a sneak thief into your house, and often by the neglecting a bad cold we end our days in lingering and wish ing for health, when, indeed, one bottle of pure whisky or brandy would have cured the cold. Such goods may be scarce but they can be lound at liar Klein's, 82 Fed eral street, Allegheny. His "Silver Age" is the only whisky indorsed by physicians.

The collection taken up, amounting to about 25, will go to the Johnstown sufferers. The an nouncement was made that no word had yet been received about ex-Attorney General Brad ford, of Kansas, who was to have addressed the meeting, and who, it is feared, has been lost in the disaster. The meeting was opened with a short speech from Captain Barbour. He detailed the terri ble results of drink, portravine bis own erne. -rience, and beseeching the young men to turn osiue irom liquor oeiore it is too late. Mr. Thomas Cowan, of Cleveland, followed with an address in behalf of the amendment. The speaker said that he was an American, though of foreign birth. He was an American by choice, because he liked America, and was proud of her. He added: "And I would say to any foreign born, if they don't like the cus toms and usages of this country, let them go back home." He concluded with an earnest appeal to vote for home against the devil on June 18. The Moorhead Union, W. C. T.

Churches of the Mononcabela Valley. An event of no little interest transpired yes terday at the Taylor M. E. Church, located on the National road, in Washington county, four miles west of Brownsville. The occasion was the one hundredth anniversay of the church. The quaint old stone building has been from a time beyond the memory of the oldest inhabi tant one of the landmarks between Washing ton and Brownsville. Some claim that it is the oldest Methodist Church west of the mountains, though Union town was probably ahead. Bishop Asbury preached within the walls of the old Stone iiurca wen nigu a century ago. j. no centennial charge of Br. C 1 services yesterday were in Charles "W. Smith, of the ChrUtlan Advocate, and Dr. A. H. Norcross. of the Pittsburg Female College. The former's sermon was in the main historical. Large numbers of Monongahela Valley Methodists from this section to the headwaters were present The Stone Church had been re fitted and renovated Jfor the occasion, and bids fair to outlast a few generations more. POLICE MATRONS ON DUTI. They Will Attend the Female Prisoners at the Central Station. Two police matrons at were put on duty at Central station yesterday in compliance with the act of legislature passed recently and ordinance of councils providing for the same.

Mrs. Sadie Earley, widow of the late William Earley, a bricklayer who died about two years ago, is the day matron, and Mrs, Runie Bren nen, widow of the late Policeman Pierce Brennen, and mother ot the present policeman or that name, is the night matron. Their turns will alternate each month, night and day tho same as the station house sergeants Their duties will consist of controlling and caring for female prisoners, searching them when brought in, and attending them when sick. They will also be expected to make the beds and keep the rooms tidy of the emergency police. AFTEE THE MAGNATES. Five Railroad Officials Indicted Under tho Inter-Stnte Law. Chicago, June 2. Five railroad officials were indicted yesterday under the inter-State commerce law. The offense charged is illegal discrimination, and the indictments are the nrst oi tne kind since the passage of the sta tue.

They Dissent From the Constitution for One Important Season. THE BET. D. MMLLISTEE, D.D., EXPLAIKS The question, which has been raised among religious circles, whether the Cove nanters would vote for the Constitutional amendment, has at last been answered by Bev. David McAllister, D. D., the pastor of the Eighth Street Hemmed Presbyterian Church. The reverend gentleman was asked for information regarding the question Satur day. He stated: "I think I may positively state that the majority of the members of our church will Tote on the Constitutional amendment and vote for it. Of course you must know that our position in regard to voting is somewhat different from that of any member of other churches. It is simply this: "The historical position of the Reformed Presbyterian Church has always been that 'of political dissent from the written com pact ot the United States Constitution. The Church understands this compact to bind all who administer the Government under it to do so without placing or giving any prefer ence to Christianity in administrating acts over any other religion at the same time. THE HISTOEICAL POSIIIOIT. has also been that the way is open for all political acts, which do not approve the compact of the written Constitution. Hence the fights in the army. No church sent a larger proportion into the field than the Beformed Presbyterian Church. Our mem bers may serve as school trustees when an oath to the Constitution is not required. "We have also Toted on amendments to the Constitution because we consider voting on an amendment different from voting for an officer to administer the Constitution with a wrong provision in it." "What is this wrong provision?" "The equal consideration of all "re ligious belief. "We contend that the religion of Christianity ought to have been mentioned in the Constitution in preference and in distinction from any other belief and hence we dissent from it. But when it comes to the vote for an amendment we feel at liberty to doso because we can apply the law of Christianity to it. CHBISIIAXXTT SUPBEJTE. "The Constitution can never be the law of its own amendment Therefore the question whether an amendment is right or wrong can be decided by the voter in his own application of a moral law higher than the Constitutional law. "This being the position we take, I feel safe in saying, that we will vote and work for it "On next Wednesday the highest of our church in this land, the Synod, will meet at Belle Center, 0.( and if the question come up there, which it most likely will, a resolution will undoubtedly be passed in dorsing the objects of the Constitutional amendment, and requesting everybody to work for it" THAT GENEVA COLLEGE EOW. Dr. McAllister Talks About It at Bis Church A Full Explcnntion Some Interesting Statements. Bev. Dr. McAllister, in place of his usual Sunday afternoon sermon, devoted the time to an explanation of the difficulties of Geneva College. He began by saying that he felt it due both to himself and his church that a full statement of the case be given. This be causea great manyincorrect reports were afloat and because his church had always been one of the most liberal patrons of the college. Two members of his church had given $5,000 each, another $10,000, another a laige donation of rare and valuable books. Booms in the college hadbeen furnished by different members of tho Eighth street congregation. The doctor bad himself been a member of the Geneva faculty, and within the past year had, at great sacrifice, given $500 to the college. This be felt was a sufficient reply to the charge of littleness in refusing to pay the diploma fee of 812 exacted by the faculty. The faculty had made the demand in a "discourteous threaten ing, domineering way" first by letter and again through their treasurer In per son on commencement week when ho and his wife had gone to witness the irradnation of weir son ana aaaguier. xne manner Of mak ing the demand was snch that he could not in self-respect accede to it When be received the ugly note he looked on it as a game of bluff and concluded to let it pass, but to have the dose repeated in person, when he was on the ground to enjoy the educational feast and par take of the hospitalities of the true and tried friends, was a little too much, and so he refused to respond to a domineering, discourteous threat The doctor then proceeded to say that this weatGkan-Growl What else Is to bo expected of the old fashioned way of blacking the shoes!

When the pulse beats feebly: when the ener gy is jrone; when the appetite is weak and sleep uncertain, then tbe body is in a condition of actual "low life." No matter what the causes may have been Nature has civen way, and un less her strength is restored, disease is certain to take possession of the body. Tbe first thing any doctor does in such a case is to assist Na ture. Here are some instances: Prpf. Austin Flint, of Bellevue (New York) College, says: "The judicious use of alcoholic stimulants is one of tbe striking character istics of progress in the practice of medicine daring tbe last half century." The celebrated Dr. J. Al. Carnwall says: "I am most nappy to say, alter a very thorough test, that for persons Buffering with nervous and general debility or any wasting disease, or lor delicate persons or invalids, DunVs Pure malt Whiskey is the best tonic and pureststim ulant with which I am acquainted." There are no higher scientific authorities than these, and they speak volumes. Beware of all bottled whiskies which may be offered you, except Duffy's. It has stood the test of time and is absolutely pure. BLOOKER'S DUTCH COCOA, was but one ot many similar Instances of dis courtesy; that while there -were exceptions in the faculty of Geneva College as a body, they had repeatedly shown a want of tact and gen tleness, a fata! defect in such as have the molding and shaping of youthful character. He made no charge of anything immoral, but simply gross errors of judgment and a want or tact and refinement, which was working mis chief to the institution. The result of this, it was claimed, appears in the fact that the college Is dwindling down to the condition of au academy, and has been shorn of the power it ought to wield, and would under right management, The defectB of the institution would, in all probability, be brought before the synod at its approaching meeting, as petitions were already in circulation with that aim. and the doctor was ready then and there to give his testimony in full. In conclusion he expressed the hope that Geneva College would come up higher anddo -great work for Christ and the nation by sending forth ladies ana gentlemen, who would be as polished stones fashioned after tne similitude of a palace.

Advertising prices, without clear information of what for, is one of the plagues of ,tlie clothing business. There are more apostrophes and adjec tives, often over a compara tively valueless -quality at a cheap price, than would do for a proclamation of martial law! Never hear a word from Wanamaker's about prices, do you? We'll do anything we can to help you to a fair judg ment about clothing, and get you coming to our store, but ho.w advertising our prices will do that is, we confess; a mystery. . . They tell you about qua ity no more than dashing chunk of cold iron into wat discovers its temper. There's one common-sen: way of understanding pricet and that's with the goods in hand, the quality statedand an examination of the fit and workmanship, We'll submit ' our goods, with perfect confidence, to that way of finding which is cheapest. Nobody can beat us on prices for reliable clothing, though we're not making' a big flourish of them in news papers, i.ooo pieces to make "to measure.
