BRIGGS ON THE BIBLE
The Subject of Rev. Dr. Sutherland's
Address Last Evening.
DOES KOT DEFEAT) THE PROFESSOR,
But Says lie Has at Various Times Been
Misrepresented.
EXTRACTS FEOJI INTERESTING SERMONS
Rev. J. E. Sutherland, D. D., pastor of
the Second Presbyterian Church, took for
his subject last evening, "Briggs on the
Bible, or Christ "Which?" This church
and pastor are growing in popularity, and
the attendance at the evening services is
usually quite large, as -was the case last
evening. A synopsis of Dr. Sutherland's
address follows:
At this day, when the claims made in be
half of the Bible by thoso who accepted it as
tho inspired and the infallible word of God,
are tested with a keenness and scrutiny un
precedented in biblical criticism, it is well
for us to pause and inquire what estimate
Jesus Christ put on this boot. The unique
character of Chrit, his incomparable purity,
his profound understanding and keen and
penetrating intellect, togetherw ith his fault
ier judgment, should give more than
ordinarr weight to bis estimate of
the Bible. With all due respect for
the results of what is called the "higher critl
ciMii," for the opinions of men like Prof,
Itriggs, w hose character and ability arcuni
ersallv recognized and who have made
oiblical theology a special fctudy, wo are not,
I lake it. prepared cither as a church or as
Individual to accept their views or judg
ment in preference to the views or judg
ment of Him who spake as never man spoke.
Many Have Been Unfair.
I am bound to say that in the heat of tho
controver-y awakened by Prof. Briggs' in
augural address, many unwise and unfair
things have been said by those who are op
posed to him. lie has been charged with
holding views with regard to the Biblo and
its teachings for which his publicutterances
have furnished no just occasion. Prof.
Briggs is a scholarly. Christian man who
firmly and reverently holds to the great
fundamental articles of our Christian faith
ami is entitled to fair treatment at our
hands. What is clear is that lie repudiates
tho historic and commonly accepted view as
to the Bible infallibility as a whole and in
all its parts
It v onld be interesting, and I trust profit
able, therefore, to find out what Christ Him
self thought of the Bible. It Jesus Christ
makes the Bible out io be the word of tho
living God, inspired bv Him, and containing
nothing that would detract from its value
as an infalliblo guide, you and 1 may confi
dently continue our faith in it. Bat, on the
otherhand, if Jesus Christ is at all doubt
ful if we can discover that He is of a waver
ing mind about that book, or about any part
of it. w e should not hesitate to give it up or
abandon our views regarding it.
An Able Review of the Bible.
Christ's Judgment may bo safely relied
upon. He is surely the best and ablest critio
find reviewer of this Book. And you will
bear in mind that He makes it the supreme
and ultimate standard of appeal in religious
things. Ho does not, like somo of tho critics
of our day, merely rank it with the human
reason anu the Church.which areadmittedly
fallible and liable to err.
How then did Jesus Christ regard this
Book? First of all, he commended it as an
object of study, and this he did without
one word of caution. His urgent, bold
speech was: "Search the Scriptures."
He did not say consult the reason, or the
imagination, or the Church, but the book
upon which the Church was founded. He
does not warn you against possible errors, or
against believing that Moses wrote tho Pen
tateuch, or that Ezra wrote the books as
cribed to him, or that David wrote the
Fsalms, or that Solomon wrote tho Proverbs,
or Isaiah the book that bears bis name.
"Whatever errors are in the Old Testament
were in it when Christ said to the Jews in
His day, "Search the Scriptures," and he did
not deem them serious enough to warn
against them.
Tlie Scriptures Cannot Bo Broken.
Again Jesus Christ declared thcibsoluto
Integrity of the Scriptures. Certain persons
came to Him with a difficulty of their mind.
They stated their case to Him and in His
answer to them occur these words: "And
theS criptures cannot be broken." He as
sumes this. It never enters His mind that
the w ord of God can be broken. His whole
assumption broadens itself into an infinite
confidence in the absolute integrity of the
word of God. Hei e He had opportunity of
doing as Dr. Briggs and others are doing,
that is makingannotationsand reservations.
He might have said: -'Of course I am now
speaking of the moral and not of the histori
cal parts of the Bible when I say the Scrip
tures cannot be broken."
But He speaks of it in its completeness and
saj-s of it in so many expressed words, "Tho
Scriptures cannot be broken " Surely Christ
is a good w itness. He cannot bo convicted
of giving false testimony. This testimony I
accept as final. His was the highest of all
criticism in the best sense of the word.
I kno- you can ask difficult things about
the Bible. So you can alxjut the commonest
things around you about matter and mind,
as v ell as about the creations of the mind.
I can ask difficult questions about tho so
called "higher criticism" and about Prof.
Briggs' inaugural address and even about
some of the productions of bis critics. But
asking questions is onlv a fool's play some
times. 1 am aware that you can point me
places in the Bible and verses and
lacts of which I have no com
plete exposition. But my argument
xo-iuRiit is mis: i iBKe unnstior my author-
ity in this matter. I know Him. I believe in
Him. I have access to His character. And
because He, the Son of God, the Savior of tho
world, believed the Biblcjto bo infallible I
believe it too.
PEOFESSOB. BHIGGS POSITION
3'ot Unlike Tliat of the Unitarians, Says Kev.
Dr. Toinisend.
Rev. Dr. J. G. Townsend announced yes
terday that tw o more Sundays will close his
work here, and Key. Howard MacQueary
will preach on June 7. Mr. Townsend yes
terday took for his topic "Goodness," and in
concluding his address said:
Traveling on n dark road in tho country,
you have seen a man ahead of you with a
lantern. This man knew not that anyone
was behind him who was walking in his
light. Over some lonely raid, along tho
path of some dark sorrow, by the way of
some terrible tragedy, walks a brother un
seen bv you, whoMj only hope, whose one
bright star, is your goodness. Quench not,
then, that beautiful light. Eemember the
w oras or iiiin,wno nusuanus all human in
fluence: '-Let your light, your goodness, so
shine befoie men that tfic3- may see your
good works and glorify your Father which
is in beaten."
In his remarks after the sermon, Dr. Town
send said that in a conversation with Prof.
Swing last week, ho said to him: "Professor,
-when you came out of the church it was a
novelty. It is no longer so now."
"No' said Prof. Swing, "it is not, and I
am confident that Dr. Briggs, If he knew it,
stands substantially on our ground."
Dr. Townsend also said there were at least
six mini-tors in the two cities who
would welcome atrial and expulsion from
the church as the best way to relieve them
of tho dilemma in which they found them
selves, of holding broad views in an ortho
dox pulpit.
LIFE AFTER DEATH.
Kev. E. It. Donehoo's Evening Sermon on a
Topic Very Often Discussed.
"Tho Dead Shall Live," Isaiah xvi., 19, R.
V., was the text of Rev. E. E, Donehoo's ser
mon lust evening. During his remarks Mr.
Donehoo said:
The question of life after death is too seri
ous to be dismissed lightly. If the longest,
the happiest, the most successful lives liavo
nothing to show for it all when death touches
them but a few feet of earth, would It not
have been better never, to have been born?
The dreams of youth are at best a mockery,
tho achievements of man in the days of his
pride and glory arc vain and profitless, tho
mature reflections of old age are utterly
illusive if the grave is our final destiny.
What would we not give if only we could
unseal tho lips of our dead, and learn from
them of that deep mystcrv, hidden bv an
impenetrable veil Irani o"ur view, which
Uicj liave fully solved. What thrills of lov
would fill us ii we could catch the sound o"f
familiar voices across death's icy flood as
suring us that they bad entered upon an
other existence happier than any that
mortal ever conccn ed of in their fondest
dreams.
Sunday Services at the Bijou.
The second Sabbath Fcrvices of Christ M.
E. Church, at the Bijou Theater wore held
yesterday. Two large congregations were
present. In the evening the pastor, Iter. G.
V. Izor, D. D., preached an interesting
pennon on "A Marriage Feast; tho Wedding
Garment."
WHERE CATHOLICISM LEADS.
Too IJttle Religions School Training Among
Protestants, Says a Preacher.
"The Bcsponsibility Which Roman Catho
licism Has Placed on Protestantism" was
the subject of Rev. S. W. McCorkle's sermon
yesterday morning at tho First Christian
Church, Manhattan and Franklin Btreets,
Allegheny. Ho brought out prominently
the idea that the great power of tho Catholic
Church was in the fact that religions and
secular education go hand in hand, while tho
Protestant children recelvo only secular
training. Ho believed the only way to keep
pace with tho Catholic Church was to bring
up tho Standard of the Sabbath schools,
since it is impossible to give religious train
ing in tho public schools. Said he:
"Some people are even radical enough to
bollevo that a secular education is all that is
needed. They overlook tho power of con
science for good. While some people who
possess well educated consciences may go
wrong, a well trained conscience Is the
greatest guide to good. Among tho elements
which make an educated conscience is the
belief in a "personal God, a reverenco for
Gotfs love, for reverence of the Lord is tho
beginning of wisdom. Another factor is the
knowledge and belief in divine disnleasure.
A sense of dread of God's displeasure is
essential to morality
"There Is no power to reform in knowledge
alone. Science does not purify of itself.
There must be something else. Tho some
thing else I plead for is religious instruction
in the publie schools. What Is there In
knowledge to bind human passions and hold
them in restraint? Knowledge is a power
for good or evil, and is onlv turned either
way by the presence or lack of religious
training."
Here the speaker cited tho works of such
men as Byron, Burns and John Stewart Mill,
all of which are tainted with a spice of im
morality. Continuing, ho said: "The per
manency of a government has its safest basis
on tho moral conviction of the people. Tho
staying power of a government must rest
either in moral or physical power. In tho
military rests the physical power, and it is
not that in America. The real standing
army of America Is tho 18,000,000 of Sun
day school pupils and the 2,500,000
of Sunday school and church work
ers. Law has not an element of
purification, else all the ex-convicts
would become good citizens. The staying
Sower.tho power to purify is found back of
iw, back of science, back of secular educa
tion. It is found only in the Bible which is
the fountain head of pure conviction,flowing
oui inrougn ine cnurcn, tne nomes ana tno
schools.
"Catholicism has forced the issue by being
largely responsible for excluding religious
education from the public schools and we
must meet it by putting more conscience
into our Sunday schools. The church is
under bond to teach religous truths. Tho
children get-only the secular at the schools
and the moral is left to tho streets. It is the
duty of the church to supply this deficiency
for there is no school of moral and religious
euucauou oucsiae tne ennrcn.
THOU SHALT NOT STEAL.
Kev. C. E. Locke Preaches on the Eighth or
the Ten Commandments.
Kev. Charles Edward Locke continued his
series of sermons on the "Decalogue" last
evening in the Smithfleld. Street Methodist
Episcopal Church. Tho house was crowded
and tho attention close, indicating the inter
est of the congregation in the earnest words
of tho speaker. Mr. Locke began his sermon
by stating that John Ruskln well remarked
that in 30 years ho had never heard a sermon
on the old-fashioned eighth commandment,
"Thou shalt not steal," and yet during all
that time deception and trickery were on
the increase. He added:
It is to rebuke the flagrant infractions of
mis piece oi sinamc legislation tnat I ad
dress you. The eighth commandment has a
wider-field than merely to prohibit the secur
ing by stealth of property which belongs to
another. It thunders forth against dishon
esty, deception and dissimulation of every
sort. The gospel of the eighth command
ment Is sadly needed in modern affairs.
The eighth commandment institutes the
right of property. This is the underlying
principle without which civilization is im
possible. Unless this commandment is bon-
I ored, men cannot live together in social rela
tion. ie naveangni to posscssana control
what we have secured by our own legitimate
labor. "Property is thett" maybe the vocif
erous cry of the erratic Communist, lint it is
not according to Sinai. This commandment
stands by tho frugal, industrious, God-fearing
toiler. It fdrbids sinful extravagance
and miserly penuriousness, for that is rob
bing ourselves of happiness and peace. It
forbids selfishness, for that is robbing others.
It forbids irreligion, for that is robbing God.
'It forbids false balances, short yardsticks,
shoddy goods and misleading advertise
ments. It forbids adulterations, usury and
failure to return borrowed property.
The eighth commandment is tho foe of
sharp and crafty business dealings; of tho
common practice of affecting prices by strat
egem. It is against trusts and monopolies
and nil combinations by which "the big flsh
cat np the little ones." Competition and
modern customs have countenanced and en
couraced many thlnirs which are inhpnntli7
and viciously unrighteous and plainly op--

THE HEAVENLY VISION.
A Memorial Sermon Preached by Kev. Dr.
K. J. George Last Evening.
Last evening.at the Eighth Street Beformed
Presbyterian Church, Kev. E. J. George, D.
D., preached a memorial sermon from the
subject, "The Heavenly Vision." He talked
from the idea that all things are done under
the supervision of God, and this church has
grown and prospered during the past 25
years under His eye. During tho day sev
eral services were held at tho church. The
pastor talked on the "Kelation of Covenant
ing and Communion." At 2:15 communion
services were held, the pastor being assisted
by Key. Dr. George and Key. D. C Martin.
To-day will be the last day of tho quarter
centennial celebration of the church. At
7:45 r. m. addresses will be made by Rev. D "
B. Wilson, D. D., Key. Dr. W. J. Robinson,
Kev. Dr. J. W. Sproull and Kev. Dr. I. N.
Hays.
A SERMON ON DEEAMS.
Kev. Dr. Purves Talks About the Visions of
Bible History.
Rev. George T. Purves, D. D., of the First
Presbyterian Church, took for his theme at
last evening's service, "Jacob's Dream."
His text was taken from Genesis 2S:16-17. In
opening his address Dr. Purves mentioned
some of the dreams prominent in Bible his
tory, as used by God to communicate to some
of his people his instructions or expecta
tions. Jacob's dream proved the turninir
point in his life. fa
Continuing his address, the nastnr rila.
cussed the scientific causes for dreams, and
not disputing them at all, said that God
could bring this about to answer his pur
pose. He also discussed the superstition re
garding dreams at the present day. As usual
Dr. Purves' address was exceedingly inter
esting and instructive.

THEY PiEED ON FISH.
Quite a Number of Sharpsburg and
Etna People 111 From Eating
STURGEON WHICH WAS POISONOUS.
Many Are Prostrated, but Uo Serious Results
likely to Ensue.
S03IB OF IT BOUGHT IN PITTSBURG
The people of Sharpsburg and Etna will
avoid the nse of smoked fish as a diet after
their experience of yesterday and Saturday
until the recollection of it dies away. Some
50 or 60 persons, including stalwart workers
and weak children, are suffering from the
effects of eating smoked sturgeon, the symp
toms being those of vegetable poisoning,
and though no case is expected to prove
fatal, all the sufferers are confined to bed.
The medical men have been kept pretty
busy and it was difficult to find any of them
at all yesterday unless happened across
while on a visit.
Dr. Dinsmore's theory of the poisoning is
that the fish hod advanced toward de
composition when the curing was done,
that further decomposition was arrested by
the creosote deposited by the smoke and that
the poisonous matter thns held in solution
was liberated by being brought in contact
with the gastrio juice in the stomach, bring
ing about the evil effects.
It seems that everyone concerned with
the sale and purchase of the fish acted un
consciously in the matter. The fish is
stated to have been delivered in Sharps
burg from Gledhill, the extensive fish
dealer, and to have been sold to the dealers
at the usual price of 10 cents a pound. This
is the statement of several dealers who aver
that they could not sec anything wrong with
it, and sold it as legitimate food. It was
bought by a number of people chiefly be
cause it was the first sturgeon of the season,
and therefore an unusual diet.
Some Pittsburg Sturgeon Spoiled.
A circumstance which will make citizens
cautious in buying this form of food, is that
it was not alone the fish bought in Sharps
burg which did the mischief, but the same
variety which had been purchased in the
Pittsburg market brought about the same
serious result. Mrs. Ott, who resides on
Fifteenth street, Sharpsburg, said that her
husband and eight children were all laid up
from eating sturgeon which she had bought
at a stall in the Pittsburg'market on Friday.
Across the street from Mrs. Ott, Mrs.
Shoup's children, to the number of six, were
all sick from eating sturgeon bought at
Lardin & Smith's store nearby. She
herself had been sick, but had recovered.
Doctor Silvey had about 20 cases, the
most serious of which were William Greed
and his eight children; Carl Beier and three
children, Etna, and John Duff and eight
children. The doctor said it was curious
that though the fish was eaten on Friday its
effects were only becoming visible yester
day. John Noe and his wife and her sister.
Mrs. "Wettcrstein, of Fourth street, were all
prostrated yesterday. Miss Katie Galla-
fher, a relative of theirs; took sick 'y ester
ay afternoon. She had eaten a little of
the fish on Saturday night and had been
seized with nausea, accompanied by a vio
lent headache yesterday afternoon. Dr.
Dinsmore attended this family and many
others. He said that the serious effects
were mitigated by the immediate displace
ment of the irritating matter and that this
was instrumental in averting fatal results.
A Xnmtier of Those Affected.
The names of aU those affected could not
be ascertained, but Charles Abel and wife,
Mrs. Burroughs and her son, Michael Hab
berman r , and wifer . Joseph Michael,
Miss Katie"2l6T5inson, a'teacher in the pnb
lio school, Miss Dougherty and Miss Cnam-
Eion, of Etna; George Frank and wife, of
harpsburg, and Mrs. Kcmmer, of Etna,
were all prostrated.
Dr. Suvey secured a bottle of matter
vomited by a patient, and he intends to an
alyze it. Dr. Graham said the poisoning
might have been caused by bichromate' of
potash in the matter.used for giving fish a
certain color. None of the physicians ex
pected a fatal termination to any of their
cases.
The fact that the poisoning was caused by
the sturgeon is proved by the case of Joseph
Michaels, whose wife cooked the fish lor
dinner, but did not eat any of it, while her
husband who did, was taken sick.
Otto Konstanzer, of 4024 Butler street,
his wife and three children and two em
ployes. Lizzie Green and Henry Annleman.
were all ill yesterday from eatmg sturgeon
the day previous. None were in serious
danger last night.
OLD JUKE ON TEE KETTRED LIST,
He Will Now End His Days at the Soldiers'
Home In Erie
"Who has ever heard of Jacob Sarvert?
Not many. But ask any Southsider if he
knows "Old Jake," who drove for the
Birmingham line for so many years, and he
will answer, "Certainly, he is a character
that hardly any resident of this side can for
get, and, by the way, what has become of
him? I have heard a great many inquiring
for him, but never heard any reply. I
haven't seen him for some time."
Jake had not been on the line for three or
four months, but after a hunt he was found
the other day enjoying a glass of lager.
Jake said that he canje to this country from
Germany in 1854; after roaminc- around for
a few years he finally landed in this city
and went to work for the old 'bus line,
driving to and from the city during the
construction of the street car line. When
that was completed he was employed as a
driver, and continued in the service for 28
years, with the exception of one year he
served in the army. He was a member of
Knapp's battery, but, as he put it, he was
"too lucky," never having been in an en
gagement. jLonorrow Jake starts for the
Soldiers Home at Erie, where he will
spend the balance of his days in ease and
quiet.
