AUXILIARY ACTIVITIES NOTED
Carefully Complied Compendium of News
and Personal Mention Relating to tho
Churches and the Benevolent and
Chailtable Religious Societies.
One of We most Interesting topics to
Methodists is the question of abolishing
the "time limit" of the ministry. The
history of the denomination shows that
the question has continually been dis
cussed and that the demands of the
progressive Methodists have been met
from time to time. At one period min
isters were permitted to stay but two
years in the same charge, and In re
sponse to -the powerful demand to rem
edy the grievance another year was
added, but the limit of three years
was so productive of obstacles In the
way of a successful and progressive
ministry that the term was extended to
five years.
Gradually the general conference has
realized that the wide-awake and lead
ing ministers have been laboring under
difficulties and that the progressive lay
men have not been slow to perceive the
difficulties. At the last general confer
ence, three years ago, so strong was
the sentiment for the removal of tho
time limit that when the matter was
presented, only a few votes were luck
ing to carry the measure. Hence they
are- now -more prepared to receive a
proposal to abolish , the time, limit en-,
tlrely,- 'Five years may be regarded at
some times as a lengthy period In n
man's lifetime, but when fully two
years are consumed by a minister In
becoming known to the members of a
large congregation, and the district In
which he works, as well as organizing
the many Auxiliary societies of his
church, It certainly appears a hardship
that just as he Is attaining the zenith
of his hopes, and Is, after four years'
hard work, bringing out great results,
that he should be compelled to abandon
his charge against his own wishes and
that of his people.
Many Opinions Received. .
It will fbe Interesting, therefore, to
Dote the opinions of local iMethodlst
Episcopal pastors upon tho subject,'
who have been Invited to express their
views, which are subjoined. The ques
tion will not come within the Jurisdic
tion of the approaching Wyoming con
ference at Carbondale, although there
is no doubt that the matter will be In
formally discussed by the large num
ber of Methodist pastors and laymen
who will be present, with a view, to im
mediate action in the general confer
ence, The opinions received are as follows:
Rev. W. H. Pearce Jj'rom my earliest
ministry I have 'been strongly In favor
of. removing the time limit. I have
never been able to discover any. reason
for its) existence. I verily believe It has
been a positive hindrance to the growth
. of the Methodist Episcopal church, es
pecially in the larger towns, and cltlec,
and sincerely hope that' the next gen
eral conference will remove it.. - 1 .
ilUva I C - Floyd The , time limit
should be removed and ministers should
be appointed annually by a bishop
not called by the churches but re
appointed as long as their services pro
mote the prosperity of the church. The
bishop, with his cabinet, should move
our ministers, and not the clock or the
almanac.
Rev. P. IT. Parsons, Waverly I can
see how the removal of the time limit
might benefit a few of our churches In
the larger cities, but for our general
work I think the removal of the time
limit would not be beneficial, and
should vote against it.
The Time Has Come.
Rev. S. C. Simpklns, Moscow My
convictions are,that the time has come
to remove the time limit, but continue
the itinerancy.
Rev. P. A. King, Taylor I am most
assuredly In favor of the removal of
the "time limit" in tho Methodist disci
pline. I see no good reason why we
should have It, any more in the Meth
odist church at the present time, than
In any other church. There was a
time when It was needed, but I think
the time Is past.
Rev. A. F. Chaffee I am not In favor
of the removal of the time limit now.
Let us test our present plan more thor
oughly. The matter Is so grave It be
hooves us to move more slowly.
Christian Mission to tho Jews.
Tiev.' A. C Gaebelin, of the Hope of
Israel mission, New York city, has,
during the week, been actively engaged
In the work of iprosecutlng a mission
among the Jews of the city, and has sig
nified his intention of 'opening a mission
In Scranton for the purpose of Chris
tianizing the Hebrews of. this city, ns
far as possible. Rabbi Jacob Feuer
lleht, when asked fur his opinion upon
the matter by a Tribune reporter, ex
pressed himself In the following letter:
In your issue of last Monilny there ap
peared an' outline of a, sermon delivered
by a Mr. Ouehelln ntthe Grace Reformed
rh'tirch. In which he states', that tho Jews
had been ' rejected nationally and had
been under the curse nnd wrath of God
for nearly 1,000 years. That this statement
Is false wo need only turn and look about
us in tho world at large nnd we will see
the Jews thriving nnd prospering every
where; we sec them foremost In finance
and leading the markets of the world. The
Jewish skill nnd brain are a mighty power
In the 'empire of wealth ; their Influence
grows more powerful-every, day. Tliey
gufdo the monetary conferences of tho na
tions; it hey rise In the colleges; In the pro
fessions; they advance along tho aveiifles
of art and science. Without a country nnd
a kingdom', the Jews today wield a power
from behind the throne greater than the
power of David, and boast of wealth
which makes that of Holomnn pulu. Tho
"curse" of Mr. Uucbelln can, therefore,
not bo substantiated. with regard to the
Jews of the present. His statement that
the Jews had been rejected nationally In
equally wrong. Mr. (laebelln claimed In
last Tuesday's Republican to bo a Tnl
mudlcal scholar. If so he ought to know
the passage In the Talmud: (I'essochlm,
page 87) "God had bestowed a great benn
flt upon Israel in depriving them of their
country and dispersing them among the
nations." . In , this (our fathers obeyed
God's command to Abraham, "Get thee
out of thy country, out of thy birthplace,
so that through thee shall all the families
of the earth- 1e blessed" (Genesis xll, 1-3).
The all wise Father In order to demon
strate this promlso to Father Abraham,
saw that bow the confinement to l'nlos
tlnewastoo narrow a field for Israel to ful
fill. lt8-.mlanlon.ltH commonwealth was,
therefore, destroyed and tho Jews were
driven out to the four corners of tho earth
as missionaries to. the. world.- But their
small number, was' Inadequate to their
ItMK iThorefore.' Providence assigned to
them Chrlstlanty, as an auxiliary, but In
stead of anting as an ally and as a friend,'
It became its enemy, It deprived him of all 1
legitimate' traffic, branded him as a shy
lock, as a Fagln. No other nation of the
earth has been subjected to such re
peated and multiplied disaster; no other
has so triumphed over every catastrophe
lint! survived 'every idefeut; and even
now, In our times of liberty and equality,
our Christian neighbors Instead of striving
to convert their own, make all efforts to
convert the Jews. Mr. Gaebelin wus sent
her by a missionary society of New York
to convert the Jews of Scranton, nnd the
Grace Reformed church, without In
quiring Into the character and sin
cerity of tho man, graoefully offered
him its pulpit to disgrace the Jews.
I would like to see the amount of
mental, moral and physical energy de
voted to converting the Jews Into Chris
tians carefully estimated; and I feel con
fident that the results obtained from this
expenditure would show an absolute loss.
It Is really pitiful to think of the time,
trouble and money thrown away in tho
effort to exhibit a few rascally Jews nias-i
queradlng as Christian; and this pity over
comes the indignation naturally felt at
the unwarrantable violation of liberty of
thought which it involves, and at the sys
tem of sconndrellsm which it encouraRe3.
The Christians who supply the money are,
no doubt, actuated by the best of motives,
and delude themselves Into the belief that
they are assisting in the salvation of their
own souls, by Inducing a few half-starved
Polish Jews to be baptised, not once, but
over and over again. Hut with few ex
ceptions, the active agents in this baptis
ing business aro a set of Inxy vagabonds,
who will not earn their living by honest
work, and who have discovered a means
of enticing money from tho pockets of the
would-be philanthropists, which is more
successful than most other forms of swin
dling, and which does not as yet bring
them within the clutches of tho law, for
obtaining money tinder false pretenses.
Without making any nrrogant preten
sions, I claim that Judaism dues, at least,
ns much to make- Jcwb moral, ns Chris
tianity does for Christians; nnd that in all
the relationship of life, 1ho Jew iH'ci rtiiln
ly no worse thun the Christian. What is
tho use of trying to convert tho Jews, as
lung us there are hundreds of thousands of
fallen, utterly depraved women In all the
largo cities throughout Christendom, its
long an thero are numberless desertions,
seductions, divorces and debauchery In
Christian Europe am) America, us long
us our houses of correction, our jails, pen
Itentltirles and poor houses' are crowedu'l?
On tho other hand. It is an imdcnluliln fact,
that tho Jews with but very? feW.'lfXijVp-'
tluns are peaceable,' law-ilIUIng, Indus-'
trlous, temperate, luyill (iiitt. patriotic, citi
zens. The prison Bcurceijr" .knows lilin.'
Tho scaffold speaks of lilin'.ns'a stranger,
The divorce 'court seldou'i" hears, of him.'
The Inebriate nsylum srareeljj knows;4hiit'
ho exists. Tho almshouse has , no need to
provide for hfin, The public schools rank
him among .tho mtmt cupablej. the Vurts
among the must skilful, the sciences
among tho moat advanced. Is It a Won
der,, then, that we Jews' do not lay aside
the old distinctions pud Ucoimt 'Chris
tians? A few Jews may ylclrl to tho temp
tations and become. Christian "for, reve
nue (inly," but Jews nnd Judaism will nut
cease to bo until nil religions of mankind
will bo representative 'of the "broadest
In thought and highest in life.' Lot the do.
nomlnatloiiiil numo stand; It must stand
until- there eiin ho a fellowship truo
enough to demand surrender of no truth.

Waftings from tho Choirs.
As forecasted In Thursday's Tribune
the festival music which will be ren
dered in the various city churches n
Euster Sunday will eclipse all previous
efforts. The' choristers have experi
enced a friendly rivalry In selecting
now and appropriate pieces, the result
being that some exquisite gems of
chorus work will be given. One feature
that Is worthy of commendation Is the
fact thnt upon this occasion the selec
tions have been mude largely from the
works of modern masters, so that many
of tho congregations will be treated to'
music heard for the first time ip the
city. The decided popularity of chorus
choirs lias resulted In some Imoprtant
changes since UiBt Easter, but It would
bu manifestly unfair to BUbject the
newly organized choirs to severe criti
cism upon their first attempt. Captious
critics may vent their spleen, but there
is no doubt that Increased Interest will
be displayed In the approaching Easter
festival owing to the Increase of chorus
choirs.

organ recital at S.t. Luke's church this
afternoon at 4 o'clock, when a pro

every part of tho city. 1

ber of busy men and women have
availed themselves of the Opportunity
of a quiet Interval of fifteen minutes,
In the busy routine of their dally lives.
The proposal made by the Clark's
