HISTORY OP THE ORGANIZATION
A Large Attendance at the Religious Jleetr
ings TesterdaT.
MUCH LNTEEEST BEING MANIFESTED
Notwithstanding the ministerial boycott
on the Tarentum camjimeeting, there were
over 2,500 people on the grounds yesterday.
This is the largest crowd that has visited
the grounds in any one day Jbr five years.
There were no excursions run to Tarentum.
rs the association had requested the railroad
company not to make a reduced rate.
The beautiful grove was a scene of peace
ful pleasure and contentment. The church
tent was filled to its utmost and several
hundred people lounged around on the grnsi
close enough to hear the service. The cot
tagers sat in their doors, and from there
could hear a good share of the
sermon and all the music. Hundreds
of others strolled quietly through
the park or reclined languidly on thegrasy
carpet, engaged in pleasant conersation.
There was no loud talking or laughter and
apparently it was a model campmectiug as
semblage. Nothing occurred to disturb the
quiet of the prove or the solemnity of the
religious services. Tarentum is one of the
mot bcantiful of places in which to s-pend
n quiet Sabbath, and yesterday would be
considered an ideal day by those who love
the quiet solemnity of out-of-door religious
services. There was a complete absence of
the old-fashioned Methodist campmeeting
bcenes, but a strong religious fen or per
vaded the camp.
THE DAT'S HELIGIOl S SERVICE.
There were four meetings held yesterday.
The day opened with an old-fashioned ex
perience meeting. Great religious enthusi
asm was displayed, and the meeting proved
one of the most interesting eter held on the
ground. At 10:30 Kev. AY. E. Gledden, of
East Liverpool, O., preached. Mr. Gledden
is an evangelist of considerable reputation.
He has held some excellent meetings in the
coal districts of Pennsylvania and elicited
much interest and was quite successful in
securing converts. It has been remarked by
many that his services are mnch like those
of Moody.
In the meetings at Tarentum Mr. Gledden
is assisted by several Pittsburg ministers.
One of them is Kev. Dr. E. M. "Wood;
another is Kev. Mr. Fogle, a missionary
among the Germans of Pittsburg, but also a
ery strong English talker. There are also
other Pittsbure ministers in attendance.
bat the neighborhood ministers of the
M. E. church are mainly conspicuous by
their absence. However, since the trus
tees employed an evangelist, they do not
require the'services of the local ministers.
At 2 r. M. Kev. Dr. "Wood preached a
most interesting sermon from the text,
Luke L,Tb-"9. He was listened to atten
tively throughout his discourse, and appar
ently reached the hearts of his auditors.
A SUBJECT CABErULLY AVOIDED.
One of the best features of the services is
the music There is considerable talent
among the cottagers and they have organ
ized an excellent choir. Yesterday the
choir was assisted by a male quartet from
Tarentum, which added greatly to the inter
est in the service.
The subject most carefully avoided was
the recent trouble between the ministers
and the association. "While the directors
feel that their action in keeping the grounds
open on Sunday was completely vindicated
by the mass of Methodist Episcopal people
of the neighborhood, who showed their ap
proval by attending the meetings yesterday,
they have little to say on the subject.
They consider that it is best left as it is.
"Ve really believe that this is the way
to place the religion of Christ before the
people," said one of the" directors, "and it
is our duty to do so. It would be just as
reasonable for a city church to close its
doors to all but the congregation on Sun
day as for us to close our gates against peo
ple who wish to attend the services. 'Knock
and it shall be opened unto you' would be
made a mockery by any such proceedings.
"We feel flattered at the success, of the meet
ings. Our only financial support comes
from the hitching privileges and the col
lections, yet we find that financially the
meetings have been most successful. This
morning 100 shares of f 1 each were offered
in the congregation, and in ten minutes 50
had been sold. This is much better than
has been the case heretofore."
FORTIETH AXXIVERSAKY CELEBRATED.
On Saturday the fortieth anniversary of
the association was celebrated by an inter
esting meeting. The big tent was beauti
fully decorated. Over the pulpit was dis
played the figures " "51 '91," with a back
ground of flag6 and evergreens. The ar
rangements for the celebration were con
ducted without any reference to the recent
troubles with the ministers and all were
invited to be present. An audience of 700
people were in attendance and among them
w ere 33 who attended the first meeting in
the camp grounds 40 years ago. They were
aged people whose hair had grown white in
the service of their Master s cause live
ex-presidents were present and among them
was Jacob H. "W. Alters, ex-prothonotary
of Allegheny county, who, on account of
his seniority, was chosen to preside.
One of the most i-iterestiug features of
the programme was the reminiscences of
the older members. Five or ten-minute
speeches were made by John G. Matthews,
"William Jackson, John Gibson and Mr.
"Walters, of Pittsbure; "Uncle Benny"
Miller and Sampson Alter, of Freeport, and
many others. These gentlemen ..recalled
dozens of interesting little incidents which
were remembered by others in the audience.
They apparently greatly enjoyed the meet
ing, and it was a love feast indeed.
A HISTORY Or THE ASSOCIATION,
A history of the association was read by
Xi. E. Stofiel, ex-President of the organiza
tion. It developed some ery interesting
historic facts, and showed the great advance
made in the religious world in the past 40
j cars. The organization grew out of a com
mittee appointed by the AVeeley M. E.
Church of Pittsburg, which succeeded in
getting the co-operation of churches in the
city and the congregations at Tarentum,
Freeport and Butler. That committee vis
ited the grounds now occupied by the camp,
and the beauty of location and romantic
surroundings w ere so impressed upon their
minds that they made the selection. The
only member of that committee is "William
Thompson, the East End real estate dealer.
The first meeting proved to be a remark
able religious aflair and there w ere between
100 and 200 conversions. The only way to
end it was to adjourn to the Tarentum M. E.
Church where the meetings continued until
late in the fall. Of that first campmeeting
and those of '52, V3imd '54 much was told at
the meeting yesterday by John G. Matthews.
In 1855, during the campmeeting, Judge
H. M. Brackeuridge, the "eminent author,
who lived near the grounds, Jiroposed that
the grove be sold to the organization and his
plan was adopted. Grandfather Kennedy
and John Gibson, at present on the grounds,
were very prominent in making these nego
tiations. WHEN THEY LIVED IN TENTS.
There is quite a contrast between the
present comfortable little cottages and the
former canvas tents, when umbrellas were
verv useful on rainy nights. Ex-Sheriff
"William McGill was the first president.
Then the members of the association were
accommodated in from 60 to SO muslin
tents. The light was furnished by fallow
candles, and everything was on the most
priuiitheand temporary style. The first
cottage was built by K. S. P. McCall, at a
cost of 58 or $10. George Dobbs soon fol
lowed with a S25 cottage.
The expenses of campmeetmgs in the old
davs were verv lieht. It was usuall v calcu
lated so that the meetings would be held
shortly after the farmers got their oats
threshed, so that an abundance of straw for
beds could be had cheap. The association
usually paid a farmer ?2 or 53 for enough
straw to do all round, and he was given the
privilege of taking it again when the meet
ings were over. A box of candles, costing
$4 or $5, was the only other "big" expense.
From the start of cottages, made by
Messrs. McCall and Dobbs, grew a flourish
ing village of 118 cottages, then the largest
campmeeting grounds west of the Alleghe
nics. with the exception of Chautauqua.
The National Camnmecting Association ap
plied to Tarentum in 1875 for the privilege
of holding its annual meeting there, and it
was w hile preparing for this event that the
big fire swooped down and wiped the village
out of existence.
A FIRE THAT SWEPT ALU
This was on the night of April 21, 1876.
The lire swept everything within the
grounds surrounded by the magnificent big
trees and 117 cottages were destroyed, be
sides a number of the larger buildings.
This was a terrible blow to the flourishing
asociation and it was a debatable subject
lor some time as to whether the camp
would rebuild. It was finally decided to do
so, however, and then about two-thirds of
the cottagers seceded and went to Valley
Camp, where they could be nearer the rail
road. There are" now about C5 cottages on
the ground.
The two camr the Valley and Taren
tum are on very genial terms and visit
back and forth at all times. At the reunion
Saturday several carriage loads of people
troin tlie Valley were in attendance and
took a prominent part. Almost everv day
there are isitors from one camp in the
camp of the other, and notwithstanding the
fact that the one camp was from a split in
the other, the relations have always been
mutually agreeable.
Some of the greatest preachers of the
United States have visited Tarentum and
addressed large audiences beneath the can
vas tents on the camp ground. Among
them were Kev. Frank De Haas, also
United States diplomat and traveler; Kev.
Alfred Cookman, Kev. J. J. Sweazey, Kev.
McKinley Keilly, Kev. A.- B. Leanord, and
in fact all other great pillars of the Method
ist Episcopal Church.
CLOSING CEREMONY OP LONG AGO.
The most interesting celebration of ye
olden campineetings came on .the last
night. They were all of similar character,
so a description of the closing of the camp
in 1855 will suffice to show the unique
character of the ceremony. At midnight a
bugle sounded. Bells were luxuries not
enjoyed at that time. The congregation as
sembled in the large tent and listened to
the last sermon. Then a procession formed.
At the head were 19 ministers, sometimes
there were 40 or 50. They were followed by
chief singers, then the ladies and last the
gentlemen.
They walked two abreast and marched
clear around the river fence of the camp
grounds. The procession w as always long
enough to stretch clear around. "When both
ends came together, one line would reverse,
and the two lines would march in different
directions, shaking hands with each person
passing. During the entire march the con
gregation sang "Ve Are Marching Home to
God."
The march was kept up until each line
got back to where it started. Then they
were halted and dismissed, but all returned
to the big tent, where, amid the faint flut
ter of the caudle, they shook hands and
talked until morning. Keligious exercises
were interspersed through the night, and it
was nothing less tlian a night of religious
rejoicing.
Mr. Stofiel delved deep into the records
of the association's past to gain his knowl
edge of the old-time campmeeting.and those
who heard him read his paper greatly ap
preciated it It will be filed as one o'f the
valuable documents of the association.
WIKKED THE 0THEB EYS.
A Parrot Called Money by Its Owner Be
cause Money Talks.
There was a Farmers' Alliance-looking
man at the Lake Brie depot yesterday and
he had a parrot of which he seemed very
proud, and with good reason, for it was an
accomplished linguist There was also an
"observer" there, one of those persons who
call themselves philosophers and students
of human nature. Quoth he to his com
panion: "There is a curious fact in relation to
parrots. Nearly all, are possessed of the
same name. Now, I'll bet you a box of
cigars against a cigarette that that bird's
name is 'Pollv.' "
He accosted the parrot man with: "I say,
my friend, what do you call that bird?"
"Money," was the reply.
"What do you call it that for?"
" 'Cause money talks. See?"
"You're right, she doe," said the parrot,
as she winked the other eye.
THE JUDGMENT OF GOD
The Subject or An Interesting Sermon Yes
terday By Rev. Dr. Laws.
Kev. K. S. Laws, D. D., pastor of the
Green Street Baptist Church, Allegheny,
preached an able sermon yesterday on the
subject of "The Judgment of God." As
usual after communion, the church was
crowded. In the course of his address Dr:
Laws said:
"The light, that reflects from the unwrit
ten law ot the conscience, gives most fre
quently a deeper impression to the soul. It
is an evident proof that most of all human
transgression in everv age of mankind is
descriptive of this character, which forces
the conscience to acknowledge the dread of
death, and the deserved punishment for
sin. This the heathen learned without any
Bible or knowledge of the true God in the
soul, from whose decision there is no
appeal."
TWO TEMPEEANCE KEETIKGS
Held on Sunday, Both of "Which Were Un
usually Interestlnc.
Golden Circle Division, Sons of Temper
ance, held a good meeting in Sloorhead
Hall last night. H. M. Schrading led the
meeting, and the exercises were pleasing
and interesting. There will be a meeting in
the same place next Sunday night.
The gospel temperance meeting of the
Sons ot Temperance at 25 Federal street,
Allegheny, last night, was addressed by A.
C. Rankin, AVilliam Garfield and S. Groves.
The non-partisan temperance advocate and
the moderate drinker were denounced as the
greatest enemies of the cause.
Hurt by a Freight Car.
George Finnegan, a 16-year-old lad resid
ing at North Mansfield, was brought to the
Union depot last night in the cab of a
freight locomotive. He attempted, it was
said, to jump a passing freight and a wheel
passed over his left foot. The West Penn
ambulance conveyed him to the hospital,
where his foot was found to be badly in
jured. Eerett Clnb News.

"What Some of the Few Preachers

-SUNDAY SERVICES AT THE JAIL.
An Allegheny R. P. Congregation Advised
Sot at All to Fret.
OTIIEE PULPIT TOPICS OP YESTERDAY
Rev. J. "W. Sproull, of the Central K, P.
Church of Allegheny, preached on the sub
ject of "Don't Fret" at the 3 o'clock ser
vice yesterday afternoon. The text was
from Psalm 37, and the last part of the
eighth verse, "Fret not thyself in any wise
to do evil." He said: "Many people fret
about little things. You will meet them on
the street, and they complain about the
weather how hot it is, or what an enor
mous amount of rain there has been. How
prone we are to fret ourselves over w hat
has happened the day before. It is not
right that we should. The writer of this
psalm was a go'od man. He probably had
seen a great deal of life, and found the peo-
5le worrying themselves about little things.
:herefore he said, 'Don't fret.' If evil
doers get along in this world it is no reason
why we should worry about it. There is no
goo'd reason for our fretting over another's
doings. Vt hy have I or you any ngnt to
complain over the success of a wicked man?
What difference docs it make if he lives in
a big house, with all that money can
secure for him? That is no reason why we
should fret about it. Keep your own con
science clear, and be even ready for the ac
count that we must all give, and he will be
the sufferer and not you.
"In the second place, fretting does no
good. Are wc any the better for it? Some
thing has failed. Does it do any good for
vou or me to go through life always think
ing about it? Therefore, if your plans do
fail, don't fret about it, but look for better
things to come, and let the bright side be
always before you."
PEEACHED FE0M THE PE0VEEBS.
Rev. "IV. A. Jones Takes a Text That Inter
ests Many People.
The Knoxrille Presbyterian Church was
filled to its utmost capacity yesterday by an
interested and appreciative congregation.
The pastor, Kev. "V. A. Jones, took his text
from Proverbs xxx, 29 and 30. The lion was
here mentioned, said the pastor, as typical
of strength, boldness, aggressiveness qual
ities highly commendable in Christian work,
when, as in worldly pursuits, success was
not to be obtained by timidity and over
caution. The grayhound, fleet and sure,
was emblematical of that perseverance with
which a Christian should continually strive
in his efforts to keep progressing and to
reach the goal.
The goat was sure of foot and secure in
his position, no matter where placed, being
as safe and as firm when standing on a jut
ting rock at the brink of some sliarp de
clivity as when his feet were planted on the
level plain. So, to-day? the Church of God
wants sure-footed Christians, firm and se
cure in their positions, and so stable in
their belief that they cannot be overthrown.
GOD'S W0KD 18 LAW.
Subject of a Sermon Preached by Rev. W.
J. McKnight Yesterday Afternoon.
The services in the Allegheny K. P.
Church yesterday afternoon were conducted
by Kev. "W. J. McKnight. The text was
from Chronicles xii, 13. The speaker said:
"I must take the "Word of God for my law,
and I know no other. Follow its teachings.
Yon may use the "Word of God for your
guide. It will help you whenever appealed
to, and will heal many wounds. Teach it
to your child. en, that they may be saved
and grow up in the ways of the Lord.
"The one vital question that comes to
man is who will stand between him and
God, and his own actions on earth will be
the only mediator. Therefore, take the
Word of God, study it, and be guided by its
councils."
