The residents of Deacon street and vicin
ity are much interested in the petition
presented by Councilman Golden with te
gard to the gp-ading of Deacon street, F.aat
Market street and the boulevard. They
say they do not want the present grading
disturbed as It would entail great expense
and at the serine time impair the value of
their properties. Tbey are anxious, how
ever, to secure an improvement in the
surface of the street, and this could be ac
complished, tliey say, at small expense and
at the same time satisfy all honorable de
mands. Roddam alley, Park Place, was disturbed
on Saturday night by a row in the house
of John York, who boards eighteen men.
About 9.80 ories of police were heard, and
messengers were sent to seek police aid.
York was drunk, and when he arrived
home charged one of his boarders with
being unnecessarily attentive to Mrs.
York. He followed up the accusation
by striking the suspected boarder, and
the place at once was a veritable
pandemonium. The eighteen boarder, as
sisted by the only woman In the house, eu
deavored to make peace and consequently
made matters worse. The laudlady, wno
lives near the bouse, was struck on the
forehead and had to nse bandages. When
Lieutenant Spellman and Officers Thotnns
and Saltry arrived, qnietness was partially
restored as York was monarch of all be
surveyed, having cleared the room of his
wife and eighteen boarders. He renewed
bis threats of bodily punishment and was
taken to the Providence station house and
yesterday morning was fined 15, the money
being paid, and John once more returned

One In the Afternoon at the Initial
Service and the Other in the Even
ingservices at the Home of the
Late Professor Joseph Roney.
Funeral of Miss Jane Slocum.
Other Notes.
The Initial servioes of the Moody
meetings to be held in this city for tbe
next few weeks were formally opened
at 3 o'oloek yesterday afternoon iu the
Inru-e tent erected for that purpose on
North Main avenue. About 1,500 peo
ple were In attendanos. The platform
is erected on the northern side, contain
ing seats for the choir of fifty voices
selected from tbe various West Side
churches, On the platform were E. W.
Bliss, assistant of Mr. Moody and tlie
leader of the evangelical work; Rev. D.
C. Hughes, pastor of the Jackson Street
Baptist cliurob, and Rev. T. J. Collins.
of tbe Seranton Street Baptist obnrch.
Ine singing was led by Prof. Wil
liam C. Jones. Tbe meeting was
opened with singing after which Mr,
bliss made introductory remarks on
the uatnrc of the meetings. RY. D.
C HoghifS followed with prayer, and
the large teongregation sang "Praise
Him.'' A scriptural passage from
Matthew xiil, was read by Rev. T. J,
Collins. "At the Cross" was then ren
dered and . W. Bliss announced that
Mr. Moody will be here some time dur
ing the coming week, and that tbe
meetings in the tent would be con
ducted every evening.
Mr. Bliss chose for bis text the
Epistle of Paul to the Romans, 1 Chron
icles, IGth verse, ''For I am not
ashamd of the Gospol of Christ." His
remarks were confined to trying to
convince tbe sinful of the works of
Jesus by giTiog illustrations wbere
Christ had been found. Daring the
course of his impressive remarks be
said:
NOT ASnAMED OF 000.
I bope to revive your memories this
afternoon to some things you already
know. Paul said in this text that he is
not ashamed of God, llow many of us can
say that? You know there are a groat
many people in this world that are relig
ious. Others are righteous. There is a
great difference between the two. Moat
men have to get to the end of the rope be
fore they understand. When Paul found
what he bad to do he went forth into tbe
world with great enthusiasm.
He was striving to be right, yet he
could not look up to heaven and say that
he was right. The Jews went about,
without tbe knowledge of God, and as
serting their own righteousness. Paul
went about trying to teach people tbe
proper wav to live. Saul was climbing in
the sand when he found Josus by trying
to reach heaven through his own right
eousness. But if any man will, right here
and now, accept God he will be made right
eous. One man's excuse was, "When I
try to do good, evil is against me." My
friends you must vanquish this evil.
Aoain the thoueht comes to u?. "Why
can't I do right?" It is the influence of
company that controls us. Therefore
choose your compauy. Sin ties us up,
bands and feet, and we cannot help our
selves. It is the binding, scourging influ
ence of "sin."
Oh I what a transformation takes place
when Jesus Christ has tne right ot way.
Again we hear of people cursing the
church and l bristians. My friends, never
curse the church again. Just suppose for
a moment that we had no churches, no
Bible, no spire pointing heavenward, with
tbe cross of Jesus on the pinnacle to re
mind us that He had died for us. What
would we do? The Influence of evil would
take such possession of our souls that we
could never expect to enter tbe klugdom
of God. It we beliove that Jesus Christ
died and will come again thon we can also
believe tbat our children will come with
Him.
Are you afraid to have people bear you
pray? It you are, tuen nevor Do aliauiea
a-'iiiu. It is your nnlv hone for a lifo
hereafter. Jesus said, "Heaven and earth
suull pass away, out my word lives on ior
ever." Never be ashamed of the Bible.
The book of tbe word of Gad, and that is
the sinew and light ot life. Live by it if
you ever expect to enter your eternal
Lome.
This discourse from Dr. Bliss was
followed with the dosing prayer from
Rev. T. J. Collins, and after tbe sing
ing of tbe doxology.tne meeting olosed.
SEUVICES IN EVENING.
Fully 2,000 people attended the even
ing meting, which opeued with song
at 7.3U o clock. A great increase bad
been made in the choir and it now
n u tnbered about 125 voices, lisv. L.
C. Floyd, D. D., of tbe Simpson Meth-
oJist Eoiscopal cburcb, opened the ser
vices with a prayer. On. the platform
were Kers. JJ. U. Hughes, L. C. Floyd,
T. J. Collins. R. G. Jones nnd E. W.
Bliss. The congregation sang "I Will
Follow Jesus" and Rev. D. C. Hughes,
D. D., read a portiou of the Scripture
from Joshua 1.
Mr. Bliss delivered the sermon in bis
usual forceful and convincing manner.
He dwelt on tbe duties of a pastor, say'
ing:
Tbe life of a pastor is wrought with
temptation. People say. "If I was like
you, I would be good." Tbey think tbe
devil never visits a preacher. It may be
that a pastor's family is nut just what it
nuouia be, and it may be tbat it has a
large amount of influence among the peo
ple in that church. 1 knew a mau once
that always went to sloop whenever I
preached, so I went to him and asked why
he did so. "Well." said bo. "I stav awake
long enough to see you get agood start and
that things are going all right and then I
go to sleep."
Some preachers make you go home and
you feel real Cbristian like. Another will
make you feel miserable. Tbe latter sort
is tne most to be sought after, as the real
truth of our condition In Christ is not a
balm to one's feelings. The fear of man
brings a snare. A young man oame to me
tne oiner (lay ana asked me ir be could be
a Cbristian and measure freight with ten
per cent, oil! for a railroad company. I
told bun no. Thus It is tbat Chris
tian people are moved, and led
about by the fear of man. I do not
know but what every man hers
would sacrifice himself on the field of bat
tle for bin country, but how about our re
ligion. We know wl.at is right, we know
bow to do right, but to tell tbe truth we
have not got backbone enough to come out
and do it. Ibere were -many good men
with Christ at the time of His crucifixion.
They were all right until they found Him
bound and driven to the cross, and then
tbeir courage failed tbem. Poter denied
Christ three times and a day or two later
stood before upwards of nearly 8,000 peo
ple and confessed Christ.
A GUILTY CONSCIENCE.
Do you know what had happened in the
mean time? Why, he had become imbued
with Christ, the Saviour. A verv bad
thing to have is a guilty conscience. I had
one for about sixteen years and I never
waui sucn a tuing again, conscience was
tbe last thing I heard when I went to bed
at 2 o'clock in tbe morning and conscience
was the first thing I encountered on aris
ing. Conscience kept it up until the very
last. I would not have such a thing again
for all the world would give. What a re
lief the pardon of sins does give to a man I
He is not afraid to go anywhere.
I used to be a salesman for a large Arm.
I would size up a man and if he smoked I
smoked; it he played cards I played. I
would sll those goods by fair or nnfair
means. Bnt when I became a Christian
I questioned myself as to whether 1 could
WEST
continue in this business. I found tbat it
could not be successfully done, so I decided
to leave it aud confess Christ. The fear
of man bringeth a snare. "But be tbat
puts his faitb in the Lord will be saved."
The in eting will be held this even.
ing at 7.30 o'elock.

Roney Filled with Friends.

eration . felt for the late Professor

TKE CHURCH IS FREE FROM DEBT
An Interesting Programme Carried
Out Death of Ex-School Controller
John Charles Miller Funeral Notice
To-morrow A Horse Drops Dead
on Cedar Avenue Funeral of Mrs.
Michael Higgins, of Elm Street.
The re-dedicatory services yesterday
afternoon at the Cedar Avenue Metho
dist Episcopal church, attraoted a
multitude of people. At 2:30 William
Connell, presiding officer, began an ad
dress of congratulation, in which be
felicitated tbe members on tbe progress
made by tbe ohnreb since its organiza
tion. One reason the congregation
can feel prond ot is tbe absolute free
dom of the cburcb from debt. Mr.
Couoell was averse to allowing any
evidence of his generosity to be men
tioned, but tbe congregation, neverthe
less, feels tbat it sbonld be known that
be iie-iisted in lifting the debt.
Mr. Connell did not make anv nub-
lio eontribntions, preferring to assist
in an indirect way, bnt his donations
bave amounted to one bait of tbe debt
ot the churoh. After tbe address of
Mr. Connell an ortan voluntary was
played by Miss Florence Riobmond.
The execution of the number was ar
tistic aud effsotnal. RiV. John Davev
delivered prayer and then the choir of
children sang. After a Scripture les
son the adult choir sang the authem,
I -Will Arise." The address by tbe
president and a solo by D. C. Richards
next followed. S. T. Jones, wbo was
to speak on the origin of tbe Sundav
school, was unavoidably absent, as
was William H, Peck, wIiobs suhjxct
was "Tbe Responsibility of the Peo
ple."
"The History or the Chursh," by
George F. Reynolds was a carefully
prepared document and gave interest
ing data relating to tbe church. The
paper read by Rev. L, C. Floyd, Ph.
D., was also a most painstaking and
well prepared document.
Tbe dedication exeroises were per
formed by Rev. Dr. Floyd, and after
the singing of an anthem by the choir,
benediction wis pronounced by tlie
pastor, Rev. E. L. Santee. At 7.30
in tbe evening a sermon was preacheu
by tbe pastor from tbe text, "Whose
Names Are in the Book of life."
It was a review of tbe duties of
Christians toward tbeir Saviour and
soatained interesting reflection on the
praise due to God for His goodness and
mercy in H'.s dealing with tbe fold of
the Cedar Avenue Methodist Episcopal
cbnrch.
