J. W. Browning's Speeches and Professor
Louise Lange's Points of Order Went
for Naught.
Meetings of the Vesper Literary so
ciety generally are of an interesting
nature, but last evening's was pecu
liarly so. The meeting opened In the
usual peacjble maimer and Inatead of
discussing' the interesting and edifying
topic arranged for the evening one of
the members made a proposition that
the society should hold their meetings
at the Albright library Inatead of the
church pallor In 'the Penn Avenue Bap
tist church, which Is at their exclusive
use. The society has met In the parlor
for fourteen years and some of the
conservative members stood aghast at
the proposal. . , . . . . . , ' '
E.VS.'. Williams, builder,' '"was moved
almost to tears by the bold movement
ahd pathetically", entreated that ihey
should, continue to vegetate In the old
and , hallowed spot. Ex-Councllman
Browning made tweiHy-three speeches
in favor of rhe change and was several
times called to order by Chairman H.
S. Smith. Piyfssor Louise Lunge was
also strongly In favor of moving and
made so many points of order that the
ohalrmn wearily remarked: '
"Professor, sit down; this is the 154th
point of order you have raised. I can't
ooiint any further."
ACter an hour's wordy warfare the
motion was tabW by the chairman's
vote. The society decided to ihold a
public entertainment at an early date.
WORK OF EVANGELISTS.
City Pastors Arc Divided in Their Opin
ions us to the Good Tbcy Accomplish.
The Armenian Meeting-
A discussion of unusual Interest was
held at the monthly meeting of the
City Pastor's union at the Young
Men's Christian association yester
day morning. Rev. N. F. Stahl pre
sided, and Rev. M. D. Fuller acted as
secretary. Rev. L. C. Floyd. D. D.,
pastor of the Simpson Methodist Epis
copal church, read a paper on "Evan
gellntlc Work," In which he claimed
that the work generally had a tendency
to cause the church to drift away from
Its safe and well-established moorings.
The order of evangelists was spread
ing like frogs in Egypt of old, and now
they are everywhere. Some of them
were tainted with socialism and others
were weak on the atonement and they
rode rough-shod over plantings of years
of work. There was also the question
of expense; some of them received In
three or four months more than many
ministers received In a year.' The re
sults of their work were frequently un
satisfactory when converts were re
ceived into the church. Every Presby
tery, conference and association should
control Its own evangelists and secure
a genuine revival by personal work, as
this meant more for the evangelization
of the people than any other agency.
The Kvangelist.s Defended.
Rev. J. W. Williams, In defending the
work of the evangelists, delivered a
spirited address and charged Dr. Floyd
with being too severe in his criticism.
The work done in his church was help
ful and lasting, and although the evan
gelist frequently had faults, he believed
them to be one of the best agencies In
the church. Rev. F. A. Dotty made a
few remarks to the point, among others
citing that evangelists were often the
means of awakening pastors to a sense
of their duties.
Rev. Dr. McLeod said that he would
say "Amen" to every sentence In Dr.
Floyd's address. The evangelist, he
thought, oftentimes made people dis
satisfied with their pastors and at the
same time supplied people with but
wind and fury. He questioned whether
one evangelist that had recently visited
the city could ever undo the harm that
he had done in Scranton. It was com
munism pure and simide. Rev. D. C.
Hughes and Rev. John Davy continued
the discussion.
Dr. McLeod referred to the proclama
tion of Mayor Council recommending
the holding of a public meeting to de
nounce the Armenian mnssacres. A
meeting will be held on Saturday even
ing at 8 o'clock at the Elm Park church,
and a committee comprising Rev. D. C,
Hughes, Rev. W. H. Penrce und Rev-
James McLeod were appointed to make
the neccessary arrangements. Bishop
O'Hara had been invited to send a
representative on behalf of the Roman
Catholic church.
.Mr. Chittenden Coming.
Dr. Dean referred to a proposed visit
by Mr. Crittenden, founder of the Flop
ence Crittenden missions, mid Rev. Mr.
Under wood, for the purpose of con
ducting n series of evangelistic meet
Ings In the city. - Consideration .of the
matter was deferred. Rev. N. F. Stnhl
will read a paper nt the next meeting.

Kntwlihatnndlnir the strictness with

deal with the tramping .fraternity and
the .frenuent raids made upon tnese
gentry at their quarters adjacent to the

Annoyed by Loafers.
If there is one thing that Is more
deserving of being rooted out and is
not much less aggravating than the
tramp nuisance, It is the most annoy
ing and .disgusting practice of corner
loafing that abounds to a great extent
on the South Side. There are several
pluces that are eyesores to the traveler,
for between the hours of 7 and 9 o'clock
each evening It is often difficult to pass
certain ipolnta without being insulted
and hustled off the sidewalk by the
fellows who Indulge in the habit of
loaling. Three particular hangouts, at
the corner of Plttston avenue and
Birch street, Plttston avenue and
Maple street, and Plttston avenue and
Fig street, are the most annoying. At
the first named .place ' Barber John
Zang conducts a place of business, and
he has determined to complain to the
police and see If a stop cannot be put
to the loafing habit.

have gradually grown worse and expect

nature s effort would cease. Besides con
slant pain in the kidneys and Madder I
have huil rheumatic puln In every muscle
nnd Joint, and have often remarked that
there was not a man living that hud suf
fered as much as I had, but I must say I
had not for a single day In Ave years felt
as well In every way as I do now. Huve
Improved dally slnue I began the use of
Dr. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy. About
a week ago I gave a man atlllcted with
bladder trouble, part of a bottle of Favor

"That Is a great medicine; I am better al
ready," and he drove eight miles to a
