GREAT BAPTIST SERVICES
Celebration of the First Century of
Baptist 'orh in Scranton.
CHURCH DEBT WAS WIPED OUT
Mortgages to be Burned at a Jubilee .Meeting-Anniversary
Services Tomorrow
and Wednesday Sermons Delivered
Yesterday by Rev. W. 1. llcUlngs.
A day of great Importance In the his
tory of the Baptist community of
Scranton and its vicinity was ushered
in yesterday morning, inasmuch as it
inaugurated the celebration services of
the completion of the first century of
Baptist work in this important dis
trict, as well as the thirty-fifth anniver
sary of the Penn Avenue Baptist
church. The members of that church,
as well as their brethen in outlying
churches of the same denomination,
were determined that this important
epoch in their spiritual life should be
celebrated with that observance be
coming its importance.
The services will continue on Tues
duy and Wednesday, when eminent
divines of the Baptist church will de
liver sermons and addresses appropri
ate for the eventful occasion. The prin
cipal Interest in yesterday's services
centered upon the person of Rev. Dr.
W. P. Hellings, who was pastor of the
Penn Avenue Baptist church from 1870
to 1877, and who had journeyed from
Omaha, Neb., to accept the invitation
of his old congregation to participate
in the dual anniversary.
The morning services opened with an
organ prelude and was followed by a
special song service which was excel
lently arranged and included the an
them, "Cantate Domini," by Chandler,
which was sung with faultless taste by
Professor J. T. Watkins' choir.
A Pastor of Long Ago,
Dr. Hellings prefaced his anniver
sary sermon by a few remarks in which
he stated that when his people at
Omaha understood last Sunday that he
was going to visit his old friends In
Scranton they desired him to convey
their heartfelt Christian fraternal
greeting. It was more than a formal
expression of their sentiments; It was
a warm and genuine sympathy. With
regard to himself, after such a long
period since his pastorate In this city,
he could not express the emotion which
stirred his heart when he reflected
upon the seven and a half years of his
life spent here; a time hallowed by the
sacred memory of twenty years ago
when he first came to them, under dif
ferent conditions to those amid which
they were now surrounded.
The reverend gentleman based his ser
mon upon Epheslans Hi., 3-5, and Bpoke
upon "the ultimate aim of the Chris
tian" and the reproduction of Christ in
ourselves, The sermon was eminently
scholarly and treated of the purposes
of Christ, which were to gather men
and women Into His church, to educate
the convert, and to denomlnationalize,
though not to sectarlanlze. The ser
mon was brimful of Christian precepts
upon the paramount importance of uni
fication in the work of God, and was
aptly Illustrated by the reverend geiv
tletnenwho showed that the mighty
force of the Niagara Falls was derived
fromthe little rain drops descending
from Heaven. In like manner the work
of Christians should be joining together
In carrying out the grand purposes of
the gospel.
The I'nlon of a Sinner.
To his mind the Incarnation was most
wonderful to God and man, yet the per
sonality could not. be distinguished.
Another wonderful thing was the
union of a sinner by faith and grace
with Christ. To die with Christ, to live
With Christ, and to Vell with Christ,
Dealing with sceptlscs, Dr. Hellings
quoted a recent Incident in which he
was requested to speak to a sceptical
young man who, as he thought, was
quoting the Bible, but could not soy a
single text correctly. The speaker asked
him what kind of a God desired, or what
kind of a God he would make, where
upon the young man found that he
had more than he could accomplish, and
found how Ignorant and puny he was in
sitting In Judgment upon the Almighty
Uou.
Dr. pannage, tne pastor, made an
interesting statement and said that he
had very good news to proclaim. The
mortguge upon the church property had
been $35,000, and it was his ambition to
reduce and clear the debt. It was re
duced some time ago to $5,000, and $2,000
of that sum had since been paid, leav
lng a balance of $3,000, which he in
tended should be cleared today In
commemoration of the anniversary of
tne cnurcn.
He had been working night and day
during the past two weeks with this
object in view and had received volui
tary offers as follows; One of $500,
three of $200, seven of $100, four of $
and six of $25, or about a total of $2,400,
Another $1,000 would be required to
clear the mortgage and discharge the
expenses of the anniversary and special
repairs to the church, and he would
Impress upon his hearers that this was
the last and final appearance upon the
stage of the mortgage which would soon
be burned at a Jubilee meeting. He
would, therefore, ask the deacons of
the church to distribute among thoBe
present cards upon which they could
speolfy their donations to make up the
ii,uuv aenciency.
Addressed the Sunday School.
This wps done, and at nn after meet
Ing of the church officers, it was ascer-
talned that the required amount was
subscribed for. The subscriptions
promised win oe payable January next,
and the Penn Avenue church will be de
clared free from debt. In the afternoon
Dr. Hellings addressed the Sunday
scnooi, in wnicn na so successfully
laoorea twenty years ago.
A crowded church in the evening tea
tinea eloquently to tne widespread In
terest In the anniversary. The special
programme arranged was continued in
the evening, a pleasing number being
tne soio, -My lung," Dy Mr. watkins
ueiore tne sermon tne pastor aiv
nounced the contlnunlng services of
Tuesday and Wednesday, referred to
below, and urged the members of the
church to attend the meetings held In
the early part of the day. With re
gard to the promises made during the
day, ne was more than pleased to say
that tne total amount had been sub
scribed with the evening's promises and
they would, therefore, soon have the
pleasure of hglding .their jubilee Meet
ing. He asked the congregation to Bins
the old hymn. "Praise God from Whom
All BleBslngs Flow," in gratitude to
God for the wonderful generosity of the
day, and in thanks to Him for His help
In removing the great burden from their
shoulders. He was also glad to an
nounce that arrangements had ust been
made by which all pews would be free
on Sunday evenings in future. Evange
listic services would be conducted on
Sunday evenings during the winter and
a hearty invitation was extended to all.
A song service, he said, would precede
the evening meetings.
What Christian Conviction Is.
Dr. Hellings again preached and con
gratulated the members upon the prac
tical effort they had made in clearing
the debt, and he was delighted with the
ease with which the effort had been
made. The subject of the sermon was
"Christian Conviction as Fundemental
In Christian Life and Work," and urged
the three ponts, what Christian convic
tion Is, whence it comes and what con
viction does.
Tomorrow th. services will be as fol

come by the pastor; addresses, "The

Manufacturers' Committee.
This evening the board of trade
will hold Its regular monthly meeting.
It is expected that the manufacturers'
committee will have something ot in
terest to report.
FORGING AHEAD.
Bear Eloquent Testimony.
Scranton Truth, Oct. 13: "The Scran
ton Tribune has joined the procession of
newspaper using machine composition,
and the well-printed pages of this morn
ing's Issue bear eloquent testimony to the
mechanical excellence of the new system
The Mergenthaler linotype machine Is as
great a revolution In typesetting as the
web-perfectlng press was in the printing
of newspapers. Each machine, oper
ated by a skillful workman. Is capable of
doing the work of three compositors, and
Its principal advantage to publishers will
be In the line of increased facilities. It
may derange the arrangements of com
posing rooms at the outset, but we do not
believe that it will permanently retire from
the business any appreciable number of
competent mechanics. The machine will
enable the newspapers using it to print
more matter than they were able to print
without It, and newspaper-making, gen
erally speaking, will be correspondingly
affected and Improved thereby. The en
terprlslng Tribune has recently been
branching out In various directions and
Is now one of the best equipped newspa
pers in the state."
Is "Getting There."
Scranton Free Lance, Oct. 13: "The
Scranton Tribune appeared in a new dress
of type this morning, nearly the whole pa
per being composed on Mergenthaler lino
type machines. It presented a very hand
some appearance, and as better paper Is
hereafter to be used In getting out The
Tribune, that journal Is bound to pre
serve Its present beauty. As a newspaper
The Tribune is 'getting there' In great
shape."
Others Sure to Follow.
Scranton Free Press, Oct. 14: " The
Scranton Tribune came out yesterday for
the first time set up in large part by the
Mergenthaler linotype typesetting ma
chine. It was the first machine-type-set
paper ever Issued In Scranton, We do not
think that the typographical appearance
of The Tribune has been improved by th
change, but there is no deterioration, and
The Tribune has practically eschewed
plate matter, Its twelve pages of yester
day having been all sot at home, The ma
chine sets only body type, and union prln
tersare engaged in operating them. Head
and display advertisements must still be
set by hand, and printers must be retained
to setthem. Thestrongcompetttlonamong
the dally papers of this city makes it al
most certain that typesetting machines
will be Introduced In the other offices at
an early day."
The Experiment Successful.
Plttston Gazette, Oct 13:" To the Scran
ton Tribune is due the credit for introduc
ing Into this section of the country type
setting machines. The Mergenthaler lin
otype Is the one adopted, and The Trib
une appeared this morning with Its matter
set for the first time by machine. The
success of the work, so far as the appear
ance of the paper is concerned, rnust be
admitted. A very general objection
against the use of machines made by
readers, Is the fact that the printing as
a rule is not nearly so clear as when the
type Is Bet by hand, nor are the lines so
regular, making the continuous reading of
machine sot matter ruinous to the eye
sight. Readers of The Tribune, however,
must be forced to admit that no such ob
jection can be raised against its machine-
set matter. It Is, as printed this morning,
fully equal to hand set type in point of
clearness, while so far as regularity of
setting and spacing is concerned, it is in
our opinion superior. With neat new
head letter also, The Tribune's pages this
morning present a truly metropolitan ap
pearance. It remains to be seen whether
or not the typesetting machines will keep
up their Introductory record."
Finest Paper Ever Issued.
Carbondale Leader, Oct. 13: "The Scran
ton Tribune appeared this morning In an
entire new dress of type which was com
posed on Mergenthaler linotype machines,
four of which, of the latest Improved de
sign, have been purchased and placed In
The Tribune's composing rooms the first
machines of their kind used In northeast
ern Pennsylvania. The edition of today
consists of twelve pages and in make-up,
completeness and variety of matter Is
the most metropolitan newspaper ever
issued in this part of the state. The new
dress of The Tribune represents a recent
outlay of over $2F.O0O."

THE MEETINGS ARRANGED FOR
General Bastings Will Be in the CityOne
Week From Today and Address
Voters-Other Distinguished .Mcu
Who Are Coming Here.
As the days that separate us from Nov,
grow fewer, evidence becomes
more and more convincing that this will
be a great Republican year in Pennsyl
vania. General Daniel H. Hastings
and his colleagues on the Republican
ticket will be elected by majorities such
as were never before given to candidates
on a state ticket in Pennsylvania, in
dications point unerringly to this fact.
In all portions of the state great enthu
siasm is expressed for the able gentle
men who are acting a9 the standard
bearers of the Republican party this
fall.
The county ticket, too. will be elected.
and every candidate have a good mar
gin to snare.
The Democratlo shouters throughout
the county were, during the week, in
structed to talk confidently or demo
cratic success in the county. They
obeyed Instructions, and are telling all
with whom they come In contact how
the Democrats are going to "clean out
the Republicans this fall. This is part
of the plan of the Democratlo leaders to
restore confidence among tnose w no, in
the past, have acknowledged allegiance
to the party of Jefferson and Jackson,
and if possible awaken some degree of
enthusiasm and interest. The task Is a
difficult one, and the ridiculous claims
of the shouters is doing nothing to
awaken the much desired enthusiasm
for the local Democratic nominees.
Earnestness Pervades All.
At Republican ' headquarters dozens
of Interested party workers cnll dally,
anxious to learn In what way they can
best assist in piling up big Republican
majorities. Never before, perhaps,
have the Individual members of the
party shown a more earnest spirit or
a greater desire to be of some assistance
to the campaign managers. This is one
of the best evidences of the Interest the
rank and file of the party take In the
outcome of the battle of the ballots on
Nov. 6.
Public meetings are being addressed
nightly by Republican orators In differ
ent parts of the county, and at these the
large attendance and enthusiasm fur
nishes additional proof of the senti
ments of the voters.
More young men will vote the Re
publican ticket this fall than ever be
fore. This Is particularly true of Irish-
American young men, who are turning
In great numbers from the Democratic
party, whose boast In the past has been
that It owned them, body ana soul.
These young men feel that it Is an
insult to their manhood to be consid
ered the chattel of any political party,
and are voting for the candidates and
principles which they believe will best
subserve their true interests.
At the municipal election last spring
the way these young men renounced
the Democratic party In Dunmore and
in boroughs north of the city caused
consternation among the county lead
ers. They will have new cause for con
sternation when the votes are counted
on Nov. 6.
The young men of today are bright
and aggressive; they think and inquire
And only the party of firm principles,
framed for the good of the whole peo
ple, can command their suffrage.
.Meetings and Speakers.
This week big meetings will be held
at Petersburg, South Side, Archbald,
Jermyn and Providence, Those who
are billed to address these gatherings
are Congressman C. W. Stone, of War

a splendid reception when he visits that
place. Other meetings are now being
arranged for the remainder of the cam
paign. At the public meetings held
the issues are being squarely defined,
and the result left to the calm consid
eration of the voters.
Slngorly to Come
At Demooratlo headquarters Chair
man John E. Roche and Secretary M,
V. Sando are doing their utmost to
Inject some of their own aggressive

BROOKS WILL LEAD.
The Popular Scranton Boy Will Captain
the Tigers' Ball Team. '
According to the Philadelphia papers
Short Stop Brooks, '95, will lead the
Tigers upon the diamond next spring.
He was elected by the nine after the
Princeton season closed last June, and
It was rumored at the time that the
selection was not a popular one and
mleht not be confirmed by the gradu
ate advisory committee. It was said
that Otto and Payne, also seniors, were
surer of their pluces.
All this was set at rest at the recent
meeting of the graduate advisory com
mittee in Princeton, when Brooks' elec
tion was unanimously approved. One
thing that can be said of the new Tiger
captain Is that he is a hustler and
should keep his men full ot ginger from
start to finish.
