PASTOR AM) PEOPLE.
Two Kinds of Charges Delivered at
Installation Services.
SOHB TEABKS FROM J0HNST0W5.
Any Person Can DaTe" Something to Bay
Acainst the Ministry.
EELIGIODS NEWS OF GENEEAL INTEREST
Installation day having arrived, the con
gregation are usually, with one accord, in
one place. They listen attentively to the
sermon preached by some personal friend of
the pastor, bnt to those in the pews the most
interesting part of the service is the "charge
to the pastor," as they are so anxions that
he be provided with the proper ammunition
or his warfare. They seem oblivions to the
fact that there is also a "charge to the peo
ple." If the one be essential, why is not the
other of eqnal importance? If it be well for
pastors to take heed how they water the
flock, is it not also wise for the flock to fol
low their shepherd?
Bnt do ail congregations realize the re
sponsibility of the pastor's position? as he
stands in the pulpit as one sent of God; as
he stands at the open grave to speak words of
comfort to those who mourn the loss of
friends who were so dear and so m uch loved.
This is a reciprocal position, both parties
having duties to fulfill and obligations" to
discharge. Tbe Eev. J. M. Mercer, writ
ing on this subject in the Presbyterian
.Banner, says: They are to remember that
the power and influence of the pastor in the
community at larco wm very much depend on
tbe word they drop here and there as they
mingle with men. An unkind word may cripple
cis lnnuence xorever wiiu tne cnnarcn.
Second It will wonderfully add to the power
ot his pulpit ministrations and to his oleasure
as a Christian gentleman to know that he is
among friends.
Third Remember you have engaged to con
tinue to your pastor the worldly support
which you promised. Pay him "on time" as
you have agreed. Let there be a happy union
of business and religion.
Fourth Give your pastor spiritual support.
Y ou need not tell him you have prayed lor him,
be will know it By your presence and atten
tive listening you will encourage and inspire
the h eart of our pastor. There is a wonderful
inspiration in attentive listeneis.
Filth Remember that your paster is mortal
and that a little rest now and then will do him
good.
bixth Remember he has no means of know
ing when you are sick and in distress save by
the methods of communicating intelligence. If
yon need him and want him send for him.
Co-operation is the thought to be emphasized.
Until the people perform their part tbe Church
win fail to accomplish its work. Tour work
may be but a small note "in the orchestra of
' earth and sky," but help to swell the grand
chorus, for every note is needed.
-
Ho! Thou traveler on life's highway,
Moving carelessly along:
Pausing not to watch the shadows
Lowering o'er the mighty throng;
Stand aside and mark how feeblv
Some are struegllng In the fight;
Turnlngon thee wistful glances,
.Begging thee to hold the light.
Words of Appreciation.
The congregation of the Johnstown Presby
terian Cturch, being assembled in their house
of worship, which, by tbe favor of many friends,
.has been repaired from the damage done to it
on the 31st of May, desire to give expression to
the gratitude we feel for the assistance we
have received. The first day ot June found us
utterly helpless and destitute. Many of our
members were weeping over loved ones who
had been so suddenly taken from us. and that,
too, with no loved form to lay tenderly to rest,
and not even a home to which sympathizing
friends might come to cheer us. wo fain
would have entered the bouse of God to see
comfort, but it was almost a ruin. Our desola
tion was complete. Tbe summer has passed by
and our time has been fully occupied In search
ing for our loved ones andjn preparing homes
for ourselves. We could not do more. But
the generosity of our brethren has done what
was beyond our abilities, and to-day we have
our beloved church, made comfortable and at
tractive as a place of worship, and hither we
come to find divine consolation.
From the fullness of our hearts we wish to
give expression to our gratitude for these acts
of kindness. Money has come from all parts of
our tanu, in snms always generous and helpful,
and while we cannot speak personally to tbe do-
hots, we desire, through the medium of the
- .- press, by which our appeal for help was made,
f to express our appreciation of the kindness re-
s- cuini. vui cucsk luajei is luai uum
cnurcnei ana inamauais wno nave ministered
to us in temporal things may receive from our
common Lord richer blessings in spiritual
things; and all that we have received we hum
bly dedicate to the service of our blessed Mas
ter. F. 1). Joixt.

I never saw a minister worth his salt who had
not some crochet or oddity. Now there are
some bits of cheese that cavillers smell out and
nibble at: the first is too flowery, the second too
dull. Dear me, if all God's creatures were
judged in this way we should wring the dove's
neck for being too tame, shoot the robins for
fighting sparrows, kill the cows for swinging
their tails, and the bens for not giving us milk.
When a man wants to beat a dog it is easy to
find a stick: and any fool can have something
to say against the best ministers."
One cold is sometimes contracted on top
of another, the accompanying cough becom
ing settled and confirmed, and the lungs so
strained and racked, that the production oi
tubercules frequently follows. Many exist
ing cases of pulmonary disease can be thus
accounted for, and yet how many others are
now carelessly allowing themselves to drift
through the preliminary symptoms, con
trolled by tbe fatal policy of allowing a cold
to take care of itself 1 On the first Intima
tion of a cough or cold, or any throat or lung
trouble, resort promptly to Dr. Jayne's Ex
pectorant, a safe curative of long established
reputation, and you may avoid tbe conse
quences of such dangerous trifling.

Mr. Alcorn Will Petition to Condemn Hen's
Island Property.
OTHER GENERAL SEWS OF THE COURTS
The argument on tbe injunction of the city
on the People's Natural Gas Company, re
straining them from proceeding with tear
ing np Bates, Forbes and Emily streets for
the purpose of laying their mains, came up
before Judge "White in Common Pleas Court
No. 2 yesterday morning. Chief Bigelow,
who asked lor the injunction, was on hand,
with City Attorney Horeland, while Attor
ney Sol. Schoyer represented the company.
After the argument had been in progress ior
some time, a compromise was made through
the efforts oi Mr. Bigelow. He agreed to
allow the company to go ahead with the
work if they would agree to be responsible
for any .damage suits that might
arise, and would agree to do the
work within four days, replacing
the streets in as good condition as before, and,
further, to repave tbe portions of tbe streets
torn up a second time af terthe summer weather
had set In and the frost was ont of tbe ground.
The conditions were ali accepted and the mat
ter was settled amicably there and then.
Judge White was so well pleased with the
turn the affair had taken that he took occasion
to remark in open court that he considered Mr.
Bigelow one of the most conscientious, diligent
and efficient officers the dtv of Pittsburg ever
had.
Mr. Bigelow's face lighted up as he heard
these kind words from the Court, and im
pulsively he arose, and, walking up beside tho
Judge on the bench, grasped him warmly by
the hand and thanked him for his good opinion.
The situation was so unusual that when the
City Attorney saluted Mr. Bigelow as be stood
beside the Judge with "How do you do. Judge f"
a general laugh ran around the courtroom.
MRS. HAHHEBFAHR'S WILLS.
By Her Last WIU tbe Charitable Bequests
Would Fail.
About noon yesterday Attorney Friedman
filed for probate the will of the late Henrietta
Hammerfahr. The document was dated Janu
ary 1, 1890, and bequeaths $1,000 to the Evan
gelical Protestant Orphan Asylum, of West
Liberty; 100 to the German Catholic Orphan
Asylum of the Southside, andtlOOtoFassavant
Hospital. The balance of her property Is
given to her sister, Amelia Of.
An hour later tho Rev. Mr. Ruoff entered
the Register's office with another will made by
Mrs. Hammerfahr. The provisions were the
same as tne other, but It had been made In 1887.
When Mr. Ruoff learned of tbe later will he
took the second ono away. An odd result of
tbe two wills is that by the will first made the
charitable bequests would be valid and stand,
but by the later will they would fall through.
This is owing to the law making void charita
ble bequests in a will made within 30 days
prior to the death ot the testator.
A HUSBAND'S BIGHTS.
Sir. SfcDoaald Would He His Share Co
der the Intestate Law.
Judge Over, of tbe Orphans' Court, yesterday
handed down an opinion on a question in dis
pute concerning the will of Mrs. Margaret Mc
Donald. The will was a noted one, having been
contested by the husband, and tbe case was
known as the Irish will case. The will, which
left the property to Mrs. McDonald's sitter, was
sustained, but the husband refused to take un
der it, claiming his share under tbe intestate
laws. The legatees objected to bis claim, bring
ing forth a paper signed by the husband, agree
ing to accept under the provisions of the will.
The hnsband refuted this agreement, stating
that he signed it before he knew the contents of
tbe will.
Judge Over, in his opinion, decided in favor
of the husband. He said that when tbe hus
band signed the paper he did not know tbe
contents of the will. His rights were not ex
plained to him, and it was therefore impossible
for him to make an intelligible election.
COXDEraiNG THE PROPERTY.
Mr. Alcorn Will Petition for That Herr'i

Assistant United States District Attorney

last, which has created somewhat of a sensa
tion in business circles, owing to the unprece
dented increase over any former month's busi
ness. The exports to Mexico were 770,000, and
tbe imports from Mexico were $360,000, making
a grand total for the vear of $10,500,000. which
is an increase of 300 per cent over the year 1888.
A bad wreck occurred on the Kansas City,
Ft. Scott and Memphis Railroad, The engine
of tbe west-bound local freight left the track,
carrying five loaded cars with it. The engine
turned over, catching Engineer O. R. Howland,
Fireman R. C. Herman and Brakeman G. W.
Hugbey under it. Brakeman Widdowson was
caught in the wreck of the cars and sustained
severe Internal injuries. Herman was instantly
killed; Howland had a leg broken, and Huehey
was frightfully scalded about the head and
hands.

."THEY DO NOT SPEAH

What does it niean?
Why, simply this:
Mr. Smith has been
under Dr. Jones'
treatment lojr Dys
pepsia and overwork
for nearly a ear and
has paid hrm several
fat-bUIs, although he
never got iuy better.
One day a iriend ho
had been cured by it,
In s Is te fl on Smith's
O' a bottle of
(Royal 2Terv
ineT Hel did so under
protest, saying he had "tasen gallons of
patent medicine with tho result of doing
more harm than good." But he made a
mistake. Rogers' RoyalNervine cured
him in less than two months, and now
he says Dr. Jones is an old ignoramus
nnd Dr. Rogers a benefactor to nis race.
This ir whv Mr. Smitli and Dr. Jones
"don't speak as they piss by," and this
is but one oi tnonsanosoi similar cases.

FOUR DOCTORS FAIL
Mr. Wimim Hurley, living at No. 131 Seven
teenth strej-t, Southside, has had an experience
that almost bames de
scription. The dis
eased condition ot his
kidneys caused a puffy
appearance under his
eyes, his skin was
very yellow, his feet
and legs would often
bloat, he had a very
severe pain in his
back and kidneys,
which at times was so
sharp that it seemed
as if a knife was cut
ting through them.
Dr. Shafeb. and be would often
feel very stiff and sore in the morning. His
urine was high-colored, his appetite poor, and
he had belching of gas after eating. His aches
and pains continued to grow worse until there
was hardly a spot in his body free from pain.
He says: "I had four doctors, but all failed to
givelme any relief. When I began treating
wltn tbe physicians of the Polypatbic Insti
tute7! had not been able to work for five
months, and often was not able to walk or get
around in the house, except by crawling on my
haiidsand knees. After taking their medi
cines for four weeks X became greatly im
proved, and at the end of two months was en
tirely cured. I could not ask to feel better
than I now do. "William Hublbt."
Mr. Hurley is well-known in Pittsburg,
and his many friends will gladly testify to his
condition and his comDlete cure. All forms of
kidney and urinary diseases, chronic diseases
and surgery successfully treated.

On the same day came a lady who bad taken 14

worm, being successful in both cases; and on
December 29 1 removed a large tapeworm from
Charles Maeder, of Bennett station. Pa. They
will all testify to the mildness of my treatment.
In reference to tbe bead of a tapeworm I
