GROWTH OF CHARITY.
'Kolable Absence pf Creed Barriers at
Capt. Jones' Funeral.
CATHOLIC AHD METHODIST UHITB.
Ifext Week's IT. E. Conference at mory
Church in the East End.
HAXI CUURCII INTERESTS ARE KOTED
The fact that Father Hickey participated
in the obsequies of Captain Jones in connec
tion with two Methodist ministers, is one of
the signs of the times. A generation ago
such an act on the part of a Catholic priest
wonld hare stirred the ecclesiastical world
to its profonndest depths. Now it scarcely
causes a ripple. Captain, Jonei belonged to
so religious sect, but popular sentiment,
which in this instance was correct, recog
nized in him a man of large heart, and one
who fulfilled the end of the commandments,
which is charity.
If the eternal destiny of men hinges on
their iulfilment or non-fulfilment of this
command, Jesus of Nazareth plainly taught in
his picture of the last judgment the departed.
whose remains were laid away on Thursday, In 1
the presence of weeping multitudes,
many of whom had received from
his hand substantial tokens of his practical
kindliness has entered upon his reward. It is
a significant fact that ail religious sects are
coming to recognize the truth which the Galli
lean prophet lived and died for nearly IV centu
ries ago, namely, the great law of kindness as
between man and man.
We are brothers still, though divided by
these thin denominational walls, and, when a
noble spirit is smitten down and a great sorrow
comes to a community, we forget, and it is well
that we should, the little, petty differences and
dogmas that divide heart from heart and make
man unmerciful to bis brother. In all the re
ligious sects are to be found those who are true
to the teaching and spirit of the Nazarene; and
outside of all.
Is there not a good time coming when the
great essentials of the Christian religion will
furnish a platform on which all may stand whj
accept that religion? Tho fact that a repre
sentative of Home and a follower of Wesley
can lnlnqlo tbeit tears in the services at the
grave of a philanthropist, whose only creed
was chanty for needy, suffering Drother men.is
. an omen of that good time coming, for which
the Nazariue prayed: "That they all mav be
one; as thou. Father, art in me and I in Thee,
that they may be one In us, that the world may
believe that tbou hast sent me."
In Tennyson's "Locksley Hall" is the signifi
cant idea that,
Through the ages, one Increasing purpose runs,
And the thoughts of men are widened- by the
process of the suns.
Of the truth of this we bad an illustration at
the grave of Captain Jones.

ments will be announced on Monday, the last
thing before adjournment. While waiting for
the Bishop's arrival to make known to them
where they will find a field of labor for the
year the ministers may sing:
I know not what awaits me;
Uod kindly veils mine eyes.
And o'er each step of my onward way
He makes new scenes to rise;
And every Jot He sends me
Comes a sn eel and glad surprise:
Where'er He leads I'll rollow;
Sly trust In Him repose.
And every hour tn perfect peace
I'll sing He knows, He knows.
Bo on 1 go, not knowing;
1 onld not if 1 might;
I'd rather walk in the dark with God
Than go alone In the light:
I'd rather walk by faith with Him
Than go alone by sUht

Coraopolltnna Do Net Like to Drink Water
That Percolates Through a Cemetery
A Hitch Possible.
There seems to be a kick of considerable
dimensions developing in Coraopolis against
the location chosen by the. Cemetery Com
pany, not so much on sanitary as on gorge
rising grounds. A part of the ground
chosen is the old Methodist Chnrch grave
yard. So long as less than half a dozen
bodies a year were interred in it no fanlt
was found, but with a regularly incorporated
company operating it, it is expected that in
terments will increase to an extent sufficient
to pollute the soil to 'be extent of contamin
ating all tbe springs and wells in a mile or
so square of the borough limits.
Mr. John Arras, one of the objectors,
stated that if an examination were made
and the rock found to dip toward the south,
much of the opposition wonld cease, but
this seems not to have been ascertained.
Were water works to be built the ob
jectors, or some of them at least, might be
easily pacified, but as at present the
borough contains some five square miles bf
territory in which houses are thinly scat
tered, it is argned that it may not be many
years until the place is built sufficiently
thickly to justify the laying of pipe neces
sary to supply a territory so extensive.
Whether the kick will develop into or
ganized opposition remains to be seen, but
the opponents of cremation ought at least to
favor tbe location of cemeteries on Ion
ground so that the dead may not be a men
ace to the living.
