OTHER TULPIT TOPICS OP TESTEEDAT As next Saturday 'will l-e Decoration Par, according to the usual custom memorial serv ices wre held yesterday in a number of churches in various parte of the two cities. In the morning only a few of the churches held memorial services, but at night the greater part of them either paid tribute to the approaching day of remembrance or else adjourned so tiut tnc congregations coma ,. , ancuu memorial services xnai were Demg being held elsewhere. "Our duty to God and the Nation," was the subject of the memorial service last night by Kev. S. B. MrCormick, at the Cen tral Presbyterian Church, Anderson street, Allegheny. The veterans who attended were comprised in the Abe Patterson Post 8S James M. Lysle Post 128 and Colonel John T. Clark Post 1C2 The speaker touched on the propriety of a memorial fccnuon and the fitness of the soldiers to thus worship God in a body. 1'atTiotlsm of the Spartans. "What is patriotism?" he asked, "and why will men, as loyal citirens, give up life, health and property in the time of their country's need?" He cited the patriotism of the Spartans, who held back 2,000,000 Persians." Koine fell because its people had forgotten to love their country. Continuing, he said: "Look on that scene, the most magnificent the world has ever looked upon, when men forgot their vows and fired on their coun try'.s flair: and wives gave "up their hus bands, mothers their sons, sweethearts their lovers and bade them go fight for their country. The ties of home and family w ere ns nothing to the commands of the honor and liberty of the nation. This is a feeling implanted there by God Himself, and therefore there is a duty divinely added to the State as well as to Almighty God. A nation is an organization, and eacn nation has its own spirit. Just as the spirit in the man makes him a miser, a victim ot selhsh ambition or noble and generous, each nation has its own spirit, -which makes it wliat it is. Spain fell behind the world because it had not noble impulses as its base, while England has ever mounted higher. The spirit of this nation implies religious freedom, popular education, liberty of thought, speech and behavior, a high standard of morals and lofty ideals of manhood. The Heroes of the Nation. "Inwrought into the fibers of this nation are the spirits of "Washington, Jefferson. Jackson, Lincoln and Grant, and are bone of our bone and flesh of our flesh. Her rpirit is that which instructs both in rights and iu duties. It is a spirit that will not rest until that plague spot of Mormonism is wiped out and the purity of the home is established, and all conflicting elements arc harmonized. This nation develops the highest types of man hood and the purest and most intelligent freedom. Our greatness is not in physical wealth, but in the moral, intelligent, God fearing men." He then argued that this was the only country absolutely ruled by the people, and uiui uicy as muiviuuais were caneu on 10 settle questions as great as those which ex isted during the war. He said that because a question became a political one it did not cease to be a moral one, and each one is called on to lend his personal influence and character xo settle the vexing question of ihe day. He said this did not involve the union 'of Church and State, but rather its separation. Post 126, G.' A. R., listened yesterday morning, in the liuena Vista M. E. Church, to a hermon bv Hev. J. 1L Miller. His text was. "God forbid that I should glory Rave in the cause of our Lord Jesus Christ." He dwelt on the unselfish and the exclushe work which the Apostle Paul did for the Church, explaining how lie gave up evervthing and demoted his life to a fight lor Christ. Enlisted in a Simitar Cause. He then showed how Paul and the soldiers of the late war were enlisted for the same cau-e; the soldiers for the safety of existing honus and nations, and Paul for the safety of homes and nations jet unborn. Contin uing he said: "The story of the Cross sHows the infinite love of God, and its ignominy intensifies that loc. It unfolds GiAlV plan of redemp tion; it conquers the hostile and elevates human society; it is a rav of hope to the be niirhted of earth, and gives us some beatific jjlimp-es of the hereafter. Do -we wonder that Paul became au entlmsiast? The influ ence tor good of this story handed down through the centuries has been incalculable, and, with an ever-increasing speed, it moves on to-day, making the world better and grander." . The remainder of his address was taken tip in pointing out the triumphs of the Cross upon ilie battlefield. He especially referred to the grand work of the Christian and San itary commission, which, forgetting creed and ties of home, aided both the body and s.oul, and in the ardor of their work blotted out the colors blue and gray and ministered to Union soldier and rebel alike. Veterans of the late war also crowded the Bingham Street 31. E. Church last night, where Rev. J. A. Ballantyne addressed Post 151 of the G. A. P.. In the morning "V. F. Oldham preached a memorial ser mon before Post 41, at the P.ntler Street AT. E. Church. Union memorial services were so held in the ML "Washington M. P. ri..,i, v: :: vimtui VH TUglUlilUtCilUC , I THE BASIS OF A BEAL CHUECH. last Sermou but One to tho Rev. Dr. J. G. Tonnend'is rituhurg Charge. ;Dr. Townsend yesterday preached Jiis last sermon but one in this city prior to going to Jamestown, N. Y. His hearers were at tentive and deeply impressed. During his Eermon, which dwelt on "The Basis of a Ttcal Church," Dr. Townsend said: "The real church must recognize the five fold needs of human nature the spiritual, intellectual, moral, nffectional and esthct ieal. It must have, then, a spiritual basis. The secret of its power, its succcs, in sa ing men must be its living relationship with God. It may be prodigal in many things, money, social influence, culture," but all these w ill not avail if it be economical of the spiritual. When I go into a church it is that I may be helped in my deep est life, that my soul may be brought near to the eternal goodness. That demand which the disciples made to Jesus, 'Show us the Father and it sufficcth,' is the cry to-day in the depths of the heart. It is not a necessity to define God. How can men surround with their thought Him upon the waves of whose infinite sea this universe lies a bubble. No, it is not a neces sity that we define Him, but it is a neces sity that we find Him. "Again, because we have an intellectual nature it is a necessity that a true thcolotrv be taught 1 know the dillereuce between religion and theologv. There may be good men with a bad theology and bad men with a good theology, but in the long run tho bttter theology will make the better ru?u.- If the intellectual cannot survive the t-piritual, neither can the spiritual survive the intellectual; that i, no institution, no society, no state can survive the loss of the wisest men. 35c sure of this, when the in telligent men no longer wiit the altars of inc cnnrcuca -,ne masses will soon forsake then: aIo. The Church must recognize the moral dcmjnds of our nature. For as the 1"?.T OI the sea and the base of the tnonn. - i 0 1 taiss rest at last nn h rlmni .v . n ' ' .-.-vrMtv,w,Mvajov all things, governments, parties, churches, states, rest on the rock of manhood. He ho would become a Christian must first be come a man, BAPTISM FOB THE DEAD. A Text That Always Puzzles Bible Scholars Selected by Kev. K. 14. Donehoo. ""What shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? "Why are ther then baptized for the dead ?" I."Cor. xv. "29, was the text of Kev. E. R. Douehoo's sermon last evening, during which he said: ''This text has always puzzled Bible scholars, not because of any obscurity in the Mtading of the passage, but because of the apparent divergence from the teachings and practice of the Church from the beginniug. I It seems plamlv to refer to substitute bap tism that is, of friends being baptized in behalf of or in place of their dead who had not received the rite while living. Some think that it only implies baptism over the graves of the dead; others that it refers to baptism in the hour of death: others that it '-..- a. ..., .w. J refers merely to the intent of baptism to set i lortn the mea ol res of resurrection from the dead: others that it applies to such heathen as re ceived Daptism in honor ot those Christians whom they had. seen dying in the sanctity of the Christian faith. "In opposition to thepracticeis.confronted the uniform teaching ot Scripture, that pro bation ends with this life, and that at death one's doom is fixed for all eternity. The counsel of Luther is good, that since God has not commanded us so to pray, it is no sin not to do so. But since we do not know in what condition the soul of our departed is, or whether it has met its final doom, it is no sin to pray for the dead in such wise as this: 'Dear God, if this soul be in that state that Thou mayest help it, I pray Thee to be gracious unto iL' " SB. BEIGGS' CASE AGAIN. A Methodist Preacher Takes Occasion to Refer to the Matter. In the prelude to his evening sermon, Rev. "W. F. Oldham, pastor of the Butler Street M. E. Church, referred to the Dr. Briggs case. He said, in effect, that there was a time when Methodists had no concern with any difficulties which might arise among the Presbyterians, but they had now so much in common that an assault on Prcs byterianism was an assault on Methodism, and, therefore, they should sympathize with the Presbyterians in their trouble. He said the question at issue was whether Dr. Briggs taught the doctrines of the Pjesby tcrian Church; in other words, was Dr. Briggs a Presbyterian? Dr. Briggs says that the Scriptures are true in the mam, but tliat errors have crept in. His greatest trouble is not w hat he says, but the wav he savs iL The preacher reviewed the charge brought against Dr.Briggs, and said that they would wait until they heard from the Presbytery before passing judgmenL He said they should not be scared. This battle had been thrashed over and over again, and had been fought in Europe. The surprise now was that the fight should be made from such an unexpected quarter as the Presbyterian Church. "V70H OVER BY BEASON. The Great Secret of Charles G. Finney's Wonderful Power. Last night Kev. a V. TV. McCorkle preached another of his series of sermons on'the great evangelists of the world. The subject of last night's sketch was Dr. Charles G. Finney. He was born in "War ren, Litchfield county, Conn., on August 29, 1792. In 1821, he was converted in a grove near Adams, O. There was no re vival going on. He was first led to believe in Christ from the many references to the Bible in his law books. His call to be & fcoul winner came with his earliest conver sion. His work extended over a half century. During that time he founded .Oberlin Col lege in Ohio, and was its President for a number of years. His createst revivals were at Itome City, Bufialo, Boston and Philadelphia. Dr. Lyman Beechcr, in speaking of Dr. Finney's work, said the re vival conducted by him at Buffalo was the greatest the world had known; for through it 100,000 people were brought into the vari ous churches. His power lay in the fact that the only book he followed was the Bible, and he won his followers by reason and sound argument Xext Sunday the life of John B. Gough will be taken up. THE HTNTH C0MMA2rD5rEHT Taken as a Text for an Interesting and In structive Sermon. Bv. Charles Edward Locke, at the Smith field Street Methodist Church, last evening made some very practical and pertinent ap plications of the Ninth Commandment. The audience was large and attentive. He said: " Travelers in Arabia have experienced much difticulty in identifying the spot in the mountains of Sinai where God talked with Moseg, but in the geography of nf orals there is no aifEculty in discerning the topography of Mt. Sinai in relation to the cardinal sins. It stands out against every vice and in unequivocal opposing to all engrossing evils. "The K inth Commandment condemns testi fying falsely in courts of justice, and the common practice of despicable pettifozgers who seek to win the case of a client without regard to the fairness of Jhe client's claims. It condemns lying and deceitfulness and urges universal truthfulness, without which there can be no national unity or interna tional relationships. It reproves fashiona ble lying. Lying in what we tell, in what we sell, in what we advertise, in false im pressions produced. It rebukes hypocrisy, exaggeration and equivocation." Preaching to the Prisoners. Services at the county jail yesterday were conducted by Bev. E. B. Donehoo and the choir from his church. A iTNAjriJIOTTS C0HVENTI0H. Report of tho Delegates to the Kansas City X. M. C A. Sleeting.

"Why Yesterday's Steamer Excursion ists Went Without Music. WISHART KOI SAYING A WORD, Eccauso He Keeps His Mouth Tightly Pad locked on tho Sabbath. HIS IDEAS OF TJtfGODLT EXCURSIONISTS Notwithstanding tho notice of Captain "Wishart to Captain Anschutz, of the steamer Mayflower, not to run Sunday excursions, the latter Captain decided, as stated the other day in The Dispatch, to continue the bnsiuess as heretofore, with the excep tion of having music. There were two trips made yesterday one in the morning as far as McKee's Rocks. It was lightly patron ized, about 30 iu all participating. The afternoon trip paid much better, between 400 and COO being on board when the May flower left the wharf at 2:40 o'clock. A great many stood on the wharf looking on, but fearing to take the ride, as it looked much like rain. Captain Anschutz stated just before the boat left that he thought it best not to have a band; next Sunday he would have one, but wouldn't permit it to play until the boat got beyond the city limits. ' "Iuon't care a snap for "Wishart," said he; "he can't do anything with me, as I am running my boat under the United States marine laws, and he daren't stoptue." Captaiu "Wishart was asked at his resi dence on Mt. "Washington what he intended to do. "Come to my office to-morrow," he re plied, "and I will tell you." "Will you not intimate your inten tions?" "No, sir. I will not talk on Sunday. Xou might have guessed that, and saved yourselt the trip. Just then a passing neighbor made a re mark about the excursion" and the class of people who always made the trip. The Captain forgot himself for a moment, and said: "Those people, as a rnlel are toughs and disorderly, and always supplied with fight ing material in the shape of pocket flasks." The neighbor who, dy the way, was an oflicer on the Mayflower last year defended the excursionists, stating that for the most part they were hard-working people, who took the trip for the benefit of the fresh air and to get awav from the city, as there is absolutely nothing to induce one to remain in Pittsburg on the Sabbath. Then the Captain, to avoid further interrogation, said: "It looks very much like rain." THE BUTCHERS' MEETING. Three Days' Session of the Boss Slaughter ers to Begin To-Morrow Programme of the Convention A Successful Session Anticipated. To-morrow morning at 10 o'clock the National Butchers' Association will open its sixth annual convention at Carnegie Hall, Allegheny, and be in session for three days.

AVIlklnsburg Awakes to the Necessity of Having Its Houses Numbered. "Wilkinsburg has been growing so fast within the past three or four years, and ex pects to grow so much faster when the Du quesne Traction Company's line reaches it, that it is disposed to put on metropolitan airs. The citizens think the houses should be numbered as they are in Pittsburg, and it is intended to prepare an'ordinance to be presented to the borough council at once. The arcument is that it is now almost im possible for a stranger to find a resident of wilkinsburjj unless the exact location of tne House is Known. iv iew years ago everybody knew everybody else in the bor ough, and it was easv to find an address. Xow all is changedj the many new houses that have been built on entirely new streets, as well as filling in old ones have created clusters of residences that absolutely demand a guide of some kind. It is thought the council will pass the or dinance for numbering, and then a regular Wilkinsburg directory will be issued. The borough is enterprising as, indeed, might be expected, considering that seven-eighths of its residents are live business men of Pittsburg. For Sale Everywhere.
