BeT. R. S. Tarrant, formerly of Baltimore,
has assumed charge ol St. Mark's Episcopal
Churcn, on South
Eighteenth street. He
is a native of Wales,
and was educated at
Cardiff, Sooth Wales,
and afterward at
UVCUB VV.ICC, 4UHU

Jfflffl J graduating in 1880.
I Witt He was ordained dea
con by Bishop Will-
J?. x. s. Tarrant, iams, or Connecticut,
in Trinity "Church, Middletown. and
ordained priest in Christ Church,
East Haven, April 9, 18S1. In
1887 he took charge of the Rock Spring
congregation and replaced the Church of
the Holy Cross, that had been blown away
bv a blizzard, with a handsome stone edi
fice. In April, 1889, he took charge of the
general missionary work in Maryland, with
headquarters in Baltimore, and since that
time has built three churches, enlarged
four, prevented a foreclosure on another,
enlarged two chapels, bought ground to
build another, and completely renovated
and Dlaced St John's Churcn on a sound
basis. Altogether he has been quite suc
cess'ul in his wort, and in taking charge of
St. Mark's hopes to be able to do good
work, as there is quite a large held
to work in, and he looks forward
to building a handsome new edifice
before verylong. The main trouble has
been to secure ground, hut St. Mark's
Church has a frontage of 120 feet on Sidney
and 90 feet on South Eighteenth street,
which gives ample room for a fine church.
The sermon yesterday morning was on
"Alluring Love." The text was from
Hosea, li, 14. The minister spoke of the
great love that God had for the people; how
he tried in every way to lead them to Him;
how the church had become wicked; how he
had visited it with affliction, plague, famine
and slavery, and then removed them, to
show that His love for His people was great;
how, with His alluring love, he brought
them to Him in the fulness of divine for-
fiveness and love. God had his reasons and
is own method of bringing out at a time
the love for Him held by the children of
Israel when he released them from slavery
and led them finally to the promised land,
fullv satisfied of their love for Him.
WHETHER IT WILL PAY.
A Question Asked Often Is Dwelt Upon by
BeT. E. B. Donehoo.
During the coarse of an interesting ser
mon last evening on the subject "Will It
Pay?" Rev. E. R. Donehoo, taking for his
text "What advantage will it be unto thee,
and what profit shall I have more than if I
had sinned?" Job, xxxv:8, took occasion
to say:
"Will it pay?" Thai's the question. It
is the profit that is to be reasonably expected
irom an investment which determines our
course of action. This matter of personal
profit hasialways been uppermost in men's
minds. Dnty, right, justice, are too often
left out of view, the chief consideration be
ing that of personal advantage. It is the
seif-denials of religion, the demands forself
sacrifice which deter so many from entering
upon a religious liie. Personal advantage;
how it blinds our eyes to others' interests 1
How it benumbs our sensibilities, hardens
our hearts, absorbs our thoughts
and leads us to ignore the
rights and privileges of our brother
man I Society is largely made up of those
who pride themselves on their respectability,
their high sense of honor, their liberality
and morality; men who are entirely willing
to have their wives, and sisters, and daugh
ters bestow attention on religious matters,
but who persist in ignoring all such claims,
simply because they cannot figure out how
it will pay them to honor and serve the
Lord.
Higher considerations should influence us
than mere personal advantage. God did
not place us in this world merely to spend
our time looking after our own comlort and
pleasure. The man who connects himself
with a church in the hope that he will there
by promote bis own selfish ends utterly mis
conceives the SDirit and aims of religion and
is doomed to disappointment.
DANCING AND CARDS.
Kev. McAllister Says They Are Directly Op
poked to Christianity.
Rev. David McAllister yesterday after
noon preached the last of his series of ser
mons to young people in the Eighth Street
Reformed Presbyterian Church. His sub
ject was, "May Christians Dance and Play
Card?" In opening he stated that he would
like to spend an afternoon on each of these
subjects, but found it necessary to take
them up together.
"In speaking against dancing," said he.
"let it be understood I am not an opponent
of physical txercise. People can get exer
cise by moving about on a fioor, but danc
ing is not done for that purpose. We must
draw a distinct line between the world and
the church. Christians are called away
irom the world, and must drop those pleas
ures which are distinctly worldly. I have
spoken previously of the theater as one of
the worldly amusements. The dance is
equally so. It is directly opposed to Chris
tianity, in that it does not produce a state of
mind in harmony with divine things. Who
ever heard of a person who felt like pray
ing after coming from the dance hall?
"Dancing is gratelul to the carnal nature
and wars with the spiritual. Of course,
there are some pure-minded ladies who
dance, but I imagine their numbers are few
in fashionable gatherings wtiere the chief
charm seems to be the exposure of the fe
male person. Accounts ol such affairs are
tacen up largely with descriptions of cor
sages cut low. One great objection to card
playing is that the shuffling, dealing and
other manipulations of the pack always
bring to mind the picture of gambling
places. The very fact that such things are
used for gambling purposes makes tbem
dangerous. There are plenty of innocent
games."
ANOTHER CHUBCH DEDICATED.
The Shadyside C. P. Congregation Worships
In Its New Edifice.
The dedicatory services of the Shadyside
United Presbyterian Church, Baum street,
near Liberty avenue, were held yesterday.
The church was crowded and the exercises
were of an interesting character. The
morning service commenced at 10:30 o'clock.
Rev. J. A. Burnet, Reformed Presbyterian
Church, Wilkinsburg, offered prayer and
read the scripture lesson. Rev. J. K. Mc
Clurkin, D. D., pTeached the dedicatory

neat and artistic. The cost of the structure

BURROWS FOR HARRISON.
The Michigan Congressman Says lien Will
He Renominated Democratic Blunders
Insure a Republican Victory The Amer
icas Banquet This Evening;.
Tne first ot the Aniericus Club orators to
arrive was Julius Csesar Borrows, the Kala
mazoo Congressman, who got here
yesterday morning and registered at
the Monongahela House. He fairly
paralyzed the reception committee when
be said he wanted to go to church
and he was taken to the First Presbyterian,
where he heard Dr. Purves preach. In the
afternoon he went driving with Captain A.
J. Logan, W. If. Keech and Mr. Willock
to see the city. Though born in Erie
countv, Mr. Burrows was never in Pitts
burg before, except to pass through on his
way to and from Washington. He was
very much pleased with the East End, and
will spend to-day visiting the iron mills and
glass houses.
Mr. Burrows said he favored liberal ap
propriations for internal improvements, and
if the proposed Erie Canal will benefit na
tional commerce he will help the scheme.
He believes the Mississippi and Ohio rivers
should be connected by waterways with the
great lakes, as such canals would tend to
regulate freight rates on the railroads. He
thinks Harrison will be renominated and
elected, and the campaign will be waged on
a tariff basis. The Democrats in the next
House will be compelled to make
wool free, knock out the tariff
on tin plate and advocate the
free and unlimited coinage of silver. The
business interests of the conntry will be dis
turbed and a rousing Republican victory
will follow. It will behard to choke off the
new Congressmen who were elected with
idiotic ideas to advance, and Mr. Bur
rows looks for a hilarious time
in the next Congress. He claims
the Democrats are sure to make serious
blunders as they always have in the past
He thinks Crisp is best qualified to be
Speaker, but he wonders how the Demo
crats will suppress the irrepressible Mills,
who holds he is entitled to the position.
Mr. Burrows adds that the Farmers' Al
liance won't cut much of a figure.
The other speakers for the banquet will
arrive this morning. A reception will be
held at the clubhouse in the afternoon, and
between 6 and 7 o'clock in the evening at
the Monongahela House. The banquet will
begin promptly at 7 o'clock.
WILL ADJOURN IK HAY.
Mr. Smiley Thinks the Tax Bill Will Pass
the Senate.
Ed. Smiley, Chief Clerk of the Senate,
returned to Harrisburg last evening. He
thinks the Legislature will adjourn May 22.
Both branches have worked 'hard, and are
now ready to pass finally on all bills.
He thiuks the tax bill, if not passed by
the Senate, will come very close to it,
despite the opposition of the Philadelphia
delegation. Pattison is not saying much,
but the Secretary of the Commonwealth and
the Attorney General are against the bill.
Mr. Smiley believes the pressure will be
strong enough to make the Democrats take
up the measure and vote for it.
Surprised at the Growth.
W. H. Keech, after driving over a con
siderable portion of Pittsburg, yesterday,
with Congressman Burrows, said: "I was
greatly surprised at the growth of the city.
Everywhere we went I saw plenty of new
houses. It only shows that business men
who don't get around very much have no
idea how much the city is expanding."
WILL OBSERVE THE THIRTIETH.
Johnstown Flood Correspondents to
Be-
visit the Scene on Decoration Day.
At the meeting of the Pittsburg-Johns-town
Newspaper Men's Association, yester
day afternoon, it was decided to observe the
anniversary of the flood by a visit to Johns

able to hold the celebration the day preced

WEE WILLIE'S WOE.
Thought He Would See the World, but Dis
covered His Mistake.
Little Willie Hawkins has 'learned the
folly of decamping from the protection of
the parental roof prior to the acquisition of
long trousers. When Willie got to be 12
years old he decided the home atmosphere
too tame for him, while going to school was
a bore he did not propose to endure. So he
saved his spending money until he had $20,
and last Thursday slipped away from his
home in Wilkinsburg, taking a train for
Sew Tork. He arrived there on Friday
and put up at the Occidental Hotel.
The money save out Saturday and Willie
tearfully applied to the hotel ' clerk to tel
egraph home to his father, Robert M.
Hawkins. The boy was taken to police
headquarters to await the arrival of bis
father, who has doubtless reached the little
truant by this time.
TWO MORE MEN SUSPENDED.
Allegheny Policemen Must Not Gossip on
Their Beats.
Superintendent of Police Muth, of Alle
gheny, rolled two more heads in the dust
yesterday. In sending out the night force
he announced the suspension of Officers
Charles Schumacher and Phillipi. They
are retired for 10 days for- talking on their
beats ind for resting on telegraph poles.
The Superintendent said the officers must
walk their beats and are not supposed to
lean against telegraph and awning poles
and talk politics. They were also not
allowed to stop and talk to eachother while
on duty unless it was on matters of business.
Not Behind Those Bars.
Charles B. Weis, of the Bijou Theater,
wants understood that he is not the Weir
arrested lor forgery. This Mr. Weis never
makes a false note.
BUDS AND BLOSSOMS.
Spring Effects a Great Transforma
tion at Echenlej Park.
PILLED WITH SDNDAY STROLLERS.
Green Trees and Pretty Flowers Add an
Attraction to the Suburbs.
GAY SCENES OYER ON TOE KORTflSIDE
Sunday strolls in Schenley Park are be
coming popular. Yesterday was the first
day of the year to bring the knolls and
hollows of the romantic old place into
much demand. People have been some
what backward about growing
violently enthusiastic over 400 acres
of farm land. Everybody is
more or less fond of the beanties of wild
country, but the plain, prosy populace finds
it pleasanter to have a comfortable seat
under a tree from which to take in the view.
There are some rough hills to climb in
Schenley Park and Superintendent Mc
Knight has not yet made enough of his
smooth walks to reach all of the desirable
points with ease. Another drawback to the
pork has been the fact that people
who have never been there, as well as some
who have, do not know where to find it.
The uninitiated pedestrian will like as not
clamber np half a dozen hills and get him
self all dusty and ill-humored before he
learns he has crossed the invisible line be
tween Schenley Park and the rest of the
world.
Worth Much More Than the Trouble.
But the attractions of the big baby park
more than make up for the puffing and
blowing'required to reach it. Hundreds of
people evidently realized this yesterday
afternoon and evening. Those who went
had no reason to complain. Spring has
made a wonderful transformation in Mrs.
Schenley's gift. A dozen bare hills have
been beautified by a generous coat of soft
green. Tree and shrub have been rounded
off with nature's trimmings. Ravines
and hollows, looking rough and
uninviting heretofore have become leafy
bowers. Little streams, running here and
there between the hills, sparkle brightly
under the overhanging clonds of verdure.
These cool retreats look inviting enough to
attract the most fastidious, and they did so
yesterday.
The beauty of the new park has been
greatly enhanced 'in the past lew days
by the sudden springing up of
myriads of wild flowers. Pretty
green mounds are dotted all over with mill
ions of tiny spring beauties, blue and yel
low violets, dandelions, trilliums and a
score of other harbingers of the season of
flowers. The groves are full of dogwood
and wild crab trees, covered with their
white and pink mantles. Flowers were
everywhere yesterday. Every passing car
riage was gaily decorated with blossoms,
while promenaders old and young carried
their arms full of them.
Well Snpplied With Driveways.
Chief Bigelow's people have succeeded in
getting the big park well traversed with
roads. They circle around the wooded hills
in unexpected turns and windings but with
few steep grades. The occupant of a car
riage at tone place gets a wide view of beau
tiful, rolling country, and a few rods ahead
is shut in by overhanging trees. People in
vehicle; were by far the most numerous in
the park yesterday, and the new drives
were filled with them. Horse fanciers do
not fancy the park, and will not until the
promised half-mile track is made. The
winding roads are not good for speeding
thoroughbreds, and consequently most of
the turnouts were family carriages filled
with langhing children.
In spite of the wildness of the place, hun
dreds of people ran the risk of spoiling
shoes and sliding down steep hills and
visited the park on foot yesterday. The
soothing effect of the last-of-April sunshine
makes people think a little less of roughing
it, and the prospect of a breath of pure
country air overbalanced all inconveniences.
Schenley Park was not the only attractive
spot to the people yesterday. All the East
End streets and avenues look fresh and
green with their rows of newly-decked trees.
They make pleasant promenades, and were
filled with gay people all day. The smooth
avenues were also well patronized by the
owners of good horses, and half the people
of Pittsburg seemed to be out driving.
Highland Park Well Patronised.
The artificial beauties of Highland Park
got their share of attention from the people,
and the place was well filled all the after
noon. Allegheny Cemetery, with its beau
tifnl walks and shrubbery in all its newly
made loveliness, proved no less attractive
than other favorite resorts. There were
very few funerals to cast a gloom over the
spirits of the people.
Pittsburgers can find a pretty landscape
by taking almost any of the street car lines
out of the city. All the residence portions
and suburbs are worth looking at. Hazlr
wood and Glenwood have donned their,
warm weather dress, and spring has quietly1
covered the last trace ot winter. In all di-
rectionsthe eye is greeted with fruit trees
laden with fragrant bloom a silent pro
phecy of an abundant fruit harvest, Na
ture's smile seems contagious, and the
crowds of people who thronged suburban
thoroughfares all looked happy.
A surprisingly large number of people
were apparently satisfied to get the sunshine
second-handed from the red walls of slx
story buildings. Though parks were
crowded, the down-town streets were far
from deserted. Churches reaped great ben
efit from the pretty day, and big audiences
attended both morning and evening ses
sions. Taken altogether the day was one of
the most perfect ot this springtime. The
sky was clpudless and the air just warm
enough to make out-door existence comfort
able and cheering.
Another Beantltnl Spring; Day.
The temperature at 8 A. M. was 46; at
noon, Cl, and at 8 P. M., 64. The maxi
mum was 69, reached about 3 P.M.
The Allegheny parks were again crowded
yesterday and last night The leaves are
all partially out, and the trees now create a
semblance of a shade. Every walk was
filled with people, but only a few vis
ited the conservatories. There is little to
be seen there now save a few fish. The
stretches of green grass were the most beau
tiful features of the parks. In color it is
an unusually brilliant green spotted all
over with dandelions. The dandelions were
the primary cause of another adornment in
the shape of pretty children who
forgot all the rules and ran wild
over the grass picking the golden
beauties. Another remarkable fact is that
even this early in the spring the grass is
long enongh to be cut. There are a few
peach trees in the park and it was with
the utmost difficnlty that the police could
keep the people from breaking off branches
of the blossoms.
Besides the parks all of the roads lead
ing out of Allegheny were crowded all day
'and each person returning carried bunches
of wild flowers or sprigs covered with iruit
blossoms.

should oppose license throughout The
order will endeavor to carry this fight into
the church. G. A. Knapp, a Texas member
of the order, will speak on this question
