A WORD WITH THE EXPRESS.
I
Editor of Th Tribuwb:
Sir I regret tbat the Scranton Express
ia so unfair as to state a positive untruth
to orpin its article regarding myself,
"Elm Park church musicians are by the
ears." Nerer baa there been such har
mony iu Elm Park church as at present,
and so will it continue. Mr. Morgan is
not an "Elm Parkian." I am also accused
of abusing rlcranton singers. When a
singer was required for Mr. Morgan's choir
at the First Presbyterian church. Miss
Annette Reynolds, a contralto of New
York city, was engaged. Does that look
as if your protege, Mr. Morgan, considered
tbat ticranton had a contralto? Next Miss
Jean Slee was engaged for the Hecond
Presbyterian church, then Miss Dreager
for Elm Park chnrch, Mr. Wooler having
come earner, inese singers are from new
i or cities. Will the Express man begin
at home in its criticisms and not sneak so
unkindly of a comparative stranger, if be
louows air. Morgan's examples in securing
assistants.
Will the Express alao note that I said
"educated" singers. There is a marked
difference between a vocalist and edn.
cated singer. As I rjroviouslv stated.
IScranton is full of magnificent voices. I
aesire to t nan it you for past favors, and
yon will always find me defending true
art and no amount of vituperation will
cause me to uenist. 1 am in Scranton to
stay and I kindly ask the journals to quiet
down for a few days, as my class is over
flowing, and I may call upon them later for
tew more remarks, sincerely,
' George B. Carter.
Scranton, Sept. 17. lwt. ,
PEACE REIGNED.
Editor of The Tribuki.
Sir: Permit me to Bay that there is not
a shadow of truth in the story printed in
today's Tribune in relation to Mr. Carter
and myself. I conducted the musio at the
Moody meeting in the Elm Park chnrch on
Sunday morning and Tuesday evening,
when Mr. Carter was not expected to play.

fore Judge Edwards Life Insur
ance Case Is Being Tried Before
Judge Archbald-A Long List of
Court Minutes.
Yesterday was the opening day of

pleas. Jndge El wards presided in No.
1 conrt room and Judge Arobbald sit
iu No. 2. Under the new court Tales

eral very important eases are on for
trial.
In eonrt room No. 1. the case of Jo
seph Fellows and Attorney Cornelius
bmitn against John II. Fallows and D.
. Loomis is now iu progress. The
snit Involves the title to a tract of valu
able reul estate on the West Side,
which has been in dispute for several
years.
I he property was formerly owned by
Joseph Fellows, and it was by biro
mortgaged to Sylvanus Brown, who is
now dead. It was subsequently con
veyed to Mr. Fellows and Mr. Loomis.
Out of an irregularity in the transfer
the present suit arose.
The defendants in the present trial of
the case are represented by Attorneys
H. M. Hannah and S. B. Price, of this
sity, and ex-Attorney General Palmer,
of Wllkes-Burre. Attorney James
Mahon assisted Mr. Smith in the plain
tiff's presentation of the case. Mash of
the forenoon and the entire afternoon
was consumed in the hearing of testi
mony The ease will probably oscupy
the attention of court for several days,
IN COUHT ROOM SO. 2.
Judge Arcbbald listened the greater
part of yesterday to the suit of Thomas
McHile against Bridget McDonnell,
administratrix of the estate of ber late
bnsbaud, Frank McDonnell, of Bulls
vne. The plaintiff, who lives in Pitts
tou, seeks 'to recover tbs value of an
insurance policy the deceased carried
on bis lite and ou which the plaintiff
advanced sums of money amounting to
ifCOO.
McDonnell took out a policy for
$2,000 in the Northwestern Mutual
Life Insurance company in 1869 and
continued to pay tho premiums on it
until 1877 when he became financially
involved. McHalo, who was bis
brother-in law, uJvanced tho money by
which the payment of the premiums
was continued. lie now mointains
tbat in return for this the policy was
to have bi-en assigned to bim. The de
fendant claims that it was merely
given as security for the loan and was
in uo seuse a sale or transfer. The
amount of tho policy has been paid into
court pending a decision of this suit.
Hulslunder & Voaburg represent tho
defendant. Attorneys O'Brien, of this
city, and Shea, of Wilkee-Barre, rep
resent the plaintiff. The case was on
kt adjournment, but will probably be
finished tomorrow forenoon.

The ttatterly Tent Sermon of Evaag-slist
Bliss.
The preliminary service of the
Moody mestinj lust night was last held
in the North Mntrt Avenqs Baptist
church. It was for the ushers and
workers and was earnestly co-operated
in. The singing at the tent meeting
was especially fine and was led by Tal
lie Morgan, liar. li. 8 Jones, D. D.,
offsred prayers and Mr. Biiss rend from
the Scripture.
By request the oholr sang the an
them, "Great la the Lrd." Hare Mr.
Bliss began bis sermon and took as his
text Peter i, 18-19. The ayllabui of his
sermon was on atonement. He said
tbat the most preoions jewels in a
king's diadem could not blot outsiu;
nothing can utono but the blood
of Christ, Ills precious blood
was shed for the remission of
sin. According to the old Jewish luw
the people were required to nse the
blood of a lamb ns an offering or sacri
fice. According to the new law nothing
less than the blood of a pure and per
fect person was satisfactory.
The way to be savod now is to balieve
in Christ and have faith iu him. The
worst siu is that of unbelief. The un
believer Is an innate after the ssorifloo
that the Sou of Gal tnd to redeem
uiankiad from the thralldoni of sin.
The speaker ended with a fervent ex
hortation to all who bad not faith to
come forward and profess Christ and
share In the fruils and graees derived
from the shedding of His blood.
It was an edifying discourse and im
pressed the vast audience deeply. Bene
diction given by Bov. M. D. Fuller end
ed the evenlnx services. This overling
beainuiiig at 7 o'clock a preliminary
meeting lasting twenty minutes will be
held in the Baptist church aud all
Christian workers are cordially iuvitod
to attend. At the same time a choir
meeting will take place at the tent, to
which all singers are requested to
oo mi) and join in the uinuin.

To My Patrons and
the Public:
Having been compelled by uncon
trollable circumstances to make a
temporary suspension of regular
business, I respectfully intimate
that in tbe course of a few weeks
at latest I hope to be able to re
sume trade under old conditions.
An amicable adjustment has been
reached between my creditors snd
myself, and as soon as pressing
claims are adjusted and settled, I
will be found at the old address
ready to welcome all customers
who favor me with a call. -Meanwhile,
the repair department will
be carried on as nsual, entrance
being had on Spruce street only,
but no geods can be bought except
at auction sales, which are con
ducted on behalf of creditors.
Respectfully,
C. W. FREEMAN.
