liOTES OP INTEREST TO CHDECH GOERS
The Presbyterian Ministerial Association
on Monday had one of the most spirited
meetings that has been held by them for
many moons, the paper read by Key. A. E.
Linn bringing out a wide divergence of
views as to the relation of the pastor of a
church to the stranger who may drop in to
listen to the preaching of the "Word. He
Mid:
That the pastor owes a duty to strangers
will be freely admitted by alL The subject
is not of eqnal importance to all fields of
labor. What is the duty of pastors of those
congregations where strangers come of
themselves, are unacquainted with any of
the regular worshipers, who, when the con
gregation is dismissed, are lost in the thickly
populated districts? "Who are they? Whence
came they? Do they belong to any church?
are thoughts surely worthy of attention.
No doubt pastor and people owe a special
duty to the stranger. Not enough to have
trimmed ushers show them to an acceptable
teat. This can be done when the thermom
eter is away below zero, and it is colder in
side than it ts outside. The warmth of our
hands should convey to theirs the sense of
fellowship. Before they leave we should
endeavor to know who they are, where they
live, whether they have a church home, all
done In a kind wav. so as to leave the convic
tion that they had" met those woo ara interested
in their eternal welfare.
AVe havo all heard it said. "1 would not co
there to church, I was there once anil it is the
coldest place I was ever in, no one spoke to
me." Maybe we have had some frozen experi
ences of onr own. Sabbath morning came we
started to church, feeling suite comfortable,
till we got to the vestibule, hen more suddenly
than a Dakota blizzard could have done its
work we were frozen. A few of the ice pillars
of the church stood coldly by and looked as we
entered tho dnor and walked upstairs. A
jrronp stands there to make it still colder. It got
no warmer inside, when frowned at because we
got into me wrong seat, it was ine arcuc zone
by some treak ot nature brought into the tem
perate. Icebergs were all around, and in this
condition we remain till another Sunday we
can get into a w armer zone.
In the days of old Jerusalem and at the times
of the great feast when worshipers went there
they were the recipient of much hospitality,
and thereby angels were entertained unawares.
If this were done under the old dispensation
should it not be under the new. If they re
ceived them into their homelife should not we
receive them into chnrch life. How then can
this be accomplished is surely an important
question?
The pastor shonld endeavor to meet these
strangers personally. A warm grasp of the
hand from him does them a great deal of good.
A cold and distant recognition of theirpresence
will cot relieve their embarrassment or satisfy
their expectation. Going early to chnrch
affords the pastor an opportunity of meeting
them. People iroing to a church where thev are
not accustomed to go, usually go early. If the
pastor will stand at the door till the hour comes
lor the service, his own members will be glad to
see him. and strangers will be very clad to re
ceive a welcome at the first door. lie can then
learn if they have no regnlar church home and
tell'tbem he will be pleased to call on them.
Having met the stranger personally, the
pastor should have as xniny of bis people as
possible meet them. They may have heard ol
one another, or they have a mutual friend, some
one they both know, or they have been in the
same vicinity. This will open a vein of Inter
est which at once relieves the embarrassment
and makes the newcomer feel quite at home.
Recently we beard of a lady brought uo in
the Presbjterian faith who moved from West
ern Pennsylvania to Missouri. She and her
daughter went to chnrch, but no one spoke to
them, went to prajer-meeting, but no ono
spoke to them, to church the following Sunday
and the same cold experience. The mother
bowed her bead in prayer at the next meeting,
praving that ber children might be kept in the
faith iu which she was brought up, bnt not one
hand of greeting was extended to them. Then
they went to the Methodist Church, and all
hands were extended, her children warmed to
that church and the mother adopted it.
Finding where these strangers live the pas
tor should have some of bis people call on
them, some this week, some next, and so on till
they feel thay have friends in that church. The
result will be they will identify themselves
therewith.
When the pastor is alive in this work the
people will catch something of his earnestness
and activity. If the pulpit is alive the pew will
not he dead. If the pastor is iu earnest the
people will not be apathetic; if his hand is held
out in greeting, theirs will not hang by their
sides.
...
Lirt a little! I.lft a little!
Many they, who need thine aid;
Many Iviuc on the roadside,

Cat with heart and arms extended
Be the good Samaritan.

The capital for the great national banking in

NOYEL LAKE BARGES.
New Whale-Back Vessels Invented
by Captain McDougall,
REV0LUTI0K1ZING NAVIGATION.
Steel Plates for the New Structures Mak
ing at Homestead.
K0T PBETTI BUT CHEAPEB AND SAFER
A few days ago the information was
chronicled that a large contract had been
given to Carnegie, Phipps & Co., for their
Homestead mill, for the construction of the
steel plates and other metal equipment for a
number of new "whale-back" barges for the
lake trade. These barges are a novelty in
the lake Carrying business. They were in
vented by Captain Alexander McDougall,
of Duluth, Minn., an old-time lake captain.
It was after years of discouragement that he
interested a few capitalists in his device,
and his first "whale-back" barge was
launched at Duluth in July, 1888, The
Captain's idea was to build a boat with a deck
like the back of a turtle and a bow
like the back of a duck, which shonld offer
little resistance to the water and weather
the severest storms. After the first barge
was proven to be a success, a new and richer
company was organized. In January, 1889,
the American Steel Barge Company was
formed with a capital of $5,000,000, with
Charles L. Colby as President, and such
men as Colgate Hoyt,J. D. Eockefeller,
Henry Villard, and a dozen more great rail
road and financial kings interested. An
addition was made to the facilities of the
shipyard of the company and work on the
new vessel was hurried, in July last tne
second barge was launched, and in Septem
ber a third one was placed in the water.
The latter vessel took as her initial cargo
86,000 bushels of wheat, on a draft of 14.
feet 8 inches, aud unloaded it at the eleva
tor in Buffalo in less than 68 days after tbe
first Btruke of work was done on her, the best
record ever made in shipbuilding in this
country. Quite a number of improvements
were adopted in the model of the last two
boats, and they represent fully the original
idea of Captain McDougall.
"WHAT ONE IS LIKE.
It is the model of the third one, which
will be the pattern for all future vessels of
this style, and a description of her will give
an idea as to her shape and wonderful ca
pacity. She is 260 ieet long over all, 36 feet
beam and 22 feet depth of hold. Her bottom
is shaped like that of the ordinary lake or
ocean-going craft, but the bow is rounded off
a great deal more, not presenting that sharp
surface to the water. It runs out in
the t shape of a cone, but with the
apex cut off. The Btern is not
unlike the bow, but is the least
bit more round. The deck is of a convex
shape, like a turtle's back. On the for
ward and rear decks are built two turrets,
in which are placed the machinery of the
capstans aud the steam steering apparatus.
The boat is supplied with cabins, etc, below
the deck for her crew. There are 12 hatches
which traverse the turtle back, beside four,
two on either side, which can be used in
pouring the grain or ore into the barge un
til she is in proper position for the use of the
hatches on deck. The boat has double bot
toms, and eight water-tight compartments,
each connected by 6-inch pipes with two of
the Wellington pnmps, which have a capac
ity of 700 tons of water an hour, and are
so arranged that they can bo used to
pump water into the compartments as well
as out. There are 1,000 tons of steel In the
vessel. Her registered tonnage is 1,132
tons, but she will carry a load of 3,000 tons
of ore or coal, or 100,000 bushels of wheat,
on a draft of but little over 15 feet, some
thing no other craft of anything like the
dimensions of this boat, on the lake, can do.
Those now building will be of the same size.
The cost of one of these barges, without
steam, is about $75,000, just about one-third
the cost of the steamers of the Northern
line, which carry the same sized loads.
Steam can be put in the boats, and it is the
intention of the company to fit one of the
new vessels of the coming year as a steamer,
to demonstrate that the "whale-shaped"
will be as muoh of a success as a steamer as
a tow barge.
CHEAPEB AND SAFES.
The advantages of this new style vessel
over the old craft, as claimed by the in
ventor and demonstrated by those already
in commission, to a great extent, are the
great saving in the cost of construction, in
creased carrying capacity on the same
amount of water, and greater ability to re
sist the wind and waves in a storm. As to
the smaller cost, there seems little doubt, as
any one can see, by an examination of the
simple construction of McDougall's boats
with that of the majority of tbe lake craft.
When loaded they sink down nearly to the
water s eage and present only a compara
tively small surface to the wind, so that in
a storm they can not be driven, as are
the ordinary vessels. It is claimed
that it will be impossible to sink
or drive one of tbem ashore. They cer
tainly move through the water behind ves
sels towing them far easier than tbe ordinary
craft, and the masters of the big steamships
are all anxious to tow these barges, when
they are to tow apy boats, claiming they
can make better time with them. Weeks ago
a hard storm arose on the lower end of Lake
Superior, which drove nearly every craft to
shelter. The only tow-barge which ventured
out in that storm was one of those vessels
towed by the propeller Sitka. She pulled
through the monster waves without diffi
culty, and,as her master says, without ajar,
demonstrating fully the claims of ber in
ventor as to what she would do in Btorms.
LAKGE PUTUBE FLANS.
Besides the three of these barges now in
commission, two more are on the stocks, tbe
first ot which Will be lannched in a few
days, and the other one early in the spriDg.
It is probable that two more will be put on
the stocks when these are off, so that soon
after the opening of navigation next year
there will be seven of these vessels afloat,
with a combined capacity of 20.000 tons.
After tbat one boat will be turned out com
pleted, according to the present intentions
of the company, every 30 days, and it may
be every 15 days after awhile. From this
tbe magnitude ot the plans of the American
Steel Barge Company can be imagined. The
amount of capital represented by tbe stock
holders is said to be upward of 5500,000,
000. The company will sell none of the
boats, hot controls all of them itself, build
ing just as fast as it shall be necessary. As
the vessels tor tbe amount of their carrying
capacity cost only one-third or one-halt the
amount put in the great steamers or the old
style tow-barges, it caa easily be seen trnat J
an advantage such a powerful organization
as this one may have in the future. The
vessels can make money on one-half or one
fourth the rates that any other craft can run
on. It is whispered that when there are
enough of these boats on the lakes something
like the fast freight line on railroads will be
established. One steamer can tow two or
three of them. Tt will start out with a tow
destined to different ports, drop a vessel at
one place, and picking up another will pro
ceed, not having to wait for the barges to be
loaded, and so on.
The vessels of the turtle-back pattern will
not be confined to'the lake marine alone,
however. The same advantages that fit
them to so successfully compete for busi
ness on the lakes, also. Captain McDougall
claims, fit them for success on the ocean, in
the coast trade, or even in trips across the
deep. Already the building of two or three
of them (or the coast coal trade, between the
ports from the Delaware to the James and
New England ports, is practically decided
upon bv the company, if not already begun.
Captain McDougull and his company have
the fullest faith that this boat is in a great
measure to revolutionize modern marine
traffic, and there seems much reason for their
faith.
THE flEW ffAYY.
Imporlnnt Sleeting- of tho (Senate Commit-
tee on Nnvnl Affairs The Millions
That Are Needed to Bnlld
Mammoth Battle Ship.
"Washington, January 24. The Senate
Committee on Naval Affairs held an im
portant meeting, to-day, at which, after
considerable discussion, the committee de
decided upon the policy which will govern
it during this Congress in the work of build
ing up the navy. This is, in brief, that
great line-of-battle ships lite the English
Ben Bow shonld be constructed at once.
Senators Chandler and McPherson, how
ever, are not in accord with the decision
reached, and majority and minority reports
will be submitted to the Senate. Senator
Stanford is also not wholly committed to tbe
decision reached. The Naval Policy Board
which Secretary Tracy appointed made the
following recommendations:
Ten first-class battle ships, great ordnance,
10,000 tons each; cost. $56,400, COO. Three third
class battle ships, great ordnance, 6,300 to 7,500
tons each; cost, $11,000,000. Eight first-class
battle ships, limited ordnance, 6,000 tons eacbj'
cost, 39,890 000. Twelve second-class battle
ships, limited ordnance, 7,100 tons each; cost,
52,200,000. Five third-class battle ships, limited
ordnance, 6,000 tons each: cost, 516.000,000. Six
harbor defense monitors,8.815 to 6,060 tons each;
cost $25,000,000. Ono cruising monitor, 3,800
tons, cost 81.900,000. Eleven rams, one of 2.000
and ten of 3,500 tons each: cost $19,500,000. Nine
tmn-armorea cruisers, u,xu tons each; cost
28,800,000. Four first class protected cruisers,
7,500 tons each; cost J17.560.O0O. Ten first class
protected cruisers, 5.400 tons each;
cost $28,000,000. Twelve second class
protected cruisers, 3.000 to 4,500
tons each; cost, 922.500,000. Six third-class pro.
tected cruisers, 1,700 to 3,190 tons each; cost,
$5,500,000. Ten gun vessels and dispatch boats,
850 to 1,500 tons each; cost, 54,500,000. Sixteen
torpedo cruisers, including the Vesuvius, about
900 tons each; cost, $7,560,000. Three torpedo
depot artificer ships, 6,000 tons each; cost,
9o,aw,iMi. una nunarea anu one toipeuo uoats,
65 tons each, cost $0,505,000. Totals Ships, 227;
tonnage, 610,035; cost, 349,515.000. The above
total includes $07,905,000 already expended, aud
authorizes an cxpenoiture of 231,650,000.
When the committee proceeded to the con
sideration of these recommendations the
issue was raised as to whether or not it
would be advisable at this time to begin
with the construction of the immense line
of battle ships, as proposed by the Policy
Board. Including the harbor defense mon
itors, there are H of these vessels, and they
would cost $202,490,000, while the other 183
vessels, including 101 torpedo boats at an
ngsrregate cost of $6,565,000, would cost only
$147,025,000.
Senators Chandler and McPherson op
posed that part of the Policy Board's re
commendations proposing that these vessels
should first be constructed. They said that,
in theiropinion, the United States should
continue its present policy of building fast
cruisers like the Baltimore, Boston, Charles
ton and San .Francisco, and gunboats and
torpedo vessels. The cost of these vessels
was comparatively small, and they would
form an unequaled fleet of commerce de
stroyers. The building of the huge line-of-battle
ships should be deferred until we
had a larger number of cruisers, or there
was some exigency calling for their con
struction. On this issue the committee divided, the
majority, as previously stated, agreeing
with the Policy Board. In accordance with
this decision, Senator Hale was. instructed
to report favorably the bill introduced by
him some days ago, embodying the recom
mendations contained in Secretary Tracy's
annual report.
AS0THEE BACKSET FOE CHICAGO.
Farther Success of tbe Opposition's Policy
of Delay.
Washington, January 24. The sub
committee of the House committee on the
"World's Fair, was in session for an hour
this afternoon. The result was tbe further
success of the policy of delay which has
been so irritating to the Chicagoans. The
Frank resolution, providing for a fair in
1893. and the Springer resolution, looking
to a ballot in the House next Monday, were
both rejected, the last against Mr. Hitt's
opposition, and the sub-committee decided
to report to the fullcommittee.when it meets
to-morrow, the following resolution:
Resolved, Tbat this sub-committee report to
the full committee that it does not recommend
tbe adoption of either of the resolutions re
ferred to It in the forms stated, and asks per
mission to proceed at once to tbe framlns of a
bill or bills embracing tbe entire snbject of an
Exposition In 1892, except as to site, to be pre
sented for the consideration of the full com
mittee at the earliest date possible.
AN IOWA FISQfcEMAN

Chicago, January 2-t Iowa furnishes the
biggest fish story of the season. Ihe fish in
question, a wall-eyed pike, must have traveled
through the famous Conemaugh river in Penn
sylvania, into the Allegheny, down tbe latter
into tbe Ohio, down the Ohio into the Missis
sippi, and up the Father of Waters Into the
Iowa river, where it was caught two weeks ago
by four Iowa men, who have made affidavits to
the effect that tbe story they tell is a true one,
John Webster, a man named Gaiues and two
brothers named Buchanan, residents of Eldora,
la., went fishing near Hardin City, In Iowa.
Cutting a hole In tbe ice, tbey speared a pike,
and bringing It to tbe surface, noticed tbat it
seemed distended.
When opened, a pocketbook was found In

0THEE GENEEAL NEWB OF THE COURTS
The case orW. Smith alias "Baltimore
Harry"and J. Burns alias"Baltimore Jim,"
who were on trial before Judge Slagle on
Thursday for shooting L. K. St. Clair and
robbing bis store at Wilkinsburg on Febru
ary 12, 1889, came to an abrupt close yester
day. The testimony against the defendants
was of such a damaging character that it
caused them to weakeu, and yesterday morn
ing, when the case was called, Attorney
William Brennan, who represented the de
fendants, entered a plea of guilty for them.
They also entered the same plea in seven
other indictments, four of which are for bur
glary. That their sentences will be long
ones is generally admitted, as they can get
ten years on each of the burglary charges.
SHE ISN'T SATISFIED.
Beilstein' Last Wile Files Exceptions to
the Decree of Distribution.
Mrs. Adeline Beilstein, the last wife of
George P. Beilstein, Jr., better known as
"Whitey" Beilstein, yesterday filed excep
tions to'the decree of distribution of Beil
stein's estate made by the Orphans' Court.
The decree recognized the first wile of Beil
stein as his widow, and allowed herthe
widow's portion.
The exceptions filed by the last wife hold
that the Court erred in refusing to admit
testimony of immoral conduct and unchss
tity of the first wife before her marriage
with Beilstein, and in admitting admissions
made by the decedent as to his marriage
with her long after he had ceased to live
with her. The whole distribution was ex
cepted to.
A SUIT IN EJECTMENT.
Norman Kins' Effort toHnve Deeded Prop
erty Turned Over to on Estate.
The case of Norman King against Bobert
and Iiillie M. Humphreys is on trial before
Judge Stowe. The suit is an action in
ejectment to recover a piece of property in
Etna. The property was deeded to Mrs.
Humphreys by her father, who is now dead,
for $100, in consideration that she care for
him the balance of his life. Upon his death
Norman King, Mrs. Humphreys' brother,
brought suit in ejectment to have the prop
erty turned into his father's estate, alleging
that his father had been insane, and was not
competent to make a transfer of property
and was influenced by Mrs. Humphreys.
The Time Extended.
Judge White yesterday granted Judge
HIce, of Beaver, until February 5 for the
filing of his report as master in the Penn
Bank case. In accordance with the order
made on the rule obtained by parties in the
suit, the report was to have been filed by
to-day, but Judge Hice asked for the exten
sion of time, and his request was not op
posed. The case has been pending since 1885.

W. D. Lane, the postal railway clerk who

The Fall of the Christians:
A Historical Romance of Japan in the Seventeenth Century;
From Ancient Manuscripts Discovered by the Author.
BY PROF, t C, K1TCHIN, Pli, D of
"The Fall of the Christians" is a history of the desperate struggle of Christianity
against Paganism in Japan over 250 years ago. There were many thousands of Christians
In Japan, and the attempt to exterminate them led to one of the most sanguinary strag
gles r ecorded in history. The heroism of the Christians, both men and women, and their
fortitude under the most appalling dangers, as portrayed by Prof. Kitchiu, will enlist the
sympathies of the civilized world.
"The Fall of the Christians" begins in the New York Ledger dated and
issued January 25.

FOUR DOCTORS FAIL
Mr. William Hurley, living at No. 131 Seven
teenth street, Southside, has bad an experience
that almost baffles de
scription. The dis
eased condition ot his
kidneys causedapuSy
appearance under his
eyes, his skin was
very yellow, his feet
and legs would often
bloat, be 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. Shapes. and he 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
give me any relief. When I began treating
with tbe physicians of the Polypathic Insti
tute I had not been able to work for five
months, and often was not able to walk or get
aronnd in the house, except by crawling on my
hands and knees.' After taking their medi
cines for four weeks I became greatly Im
proved, and at tbe end of two months was en
tirely cured. I could not ask to feel better
than I now do. "William Hurley."
Mr. Hurley is well-known in Plttsbnrg.
and his many friends will gladly testify to bis
condition and bis complete cure. All forms of
kidney and urinary diseases, chronic diseases
and surgery successfully treated.
