""SEVENTH ANNIVERSARY.
Celebrated by Kev. T.J. Collins at Scran
ton Street Church.
Special and Interesting services were
held at the First Baptist church, Scran
ton street, yesterday, to celebrate the
seventh anniversary of the pastorate cf
xev. T. J. Collins.
In the morning Mr. Collins preached
the anniversary 'sermon. Selecting a
very appropriate theme, "Spiritual
Worship," from John, Iv, 23: "But the
hour comet.h, and now Is, when the
true worshippers shall worship the
Father in spirit and in truth) for the
Father seelteth Buch to worship Him."
The object of the sermon was to point
out, that although a review of tho pant
seven years, (which was the perfect
numeral quoted In Scripture.) was
satisfactory to the paator and members
of tho church, Hie most important ob
ject to be kept hi view was the true
worship. Unreal worship was exempli
fied by the flews when they greet
Christ on his entry Into Jerusalem on
Palm Sunday. When he made his tri
umphal entrance to the city they strew
palms on the road and threw their gar
ments before him. beholding In Him a
great king, but the unreality of their
adoration was proved by their crucify
ing Him. The same thought could be
applied to the outward condition of tho
church during tho past seven years,
during which he had beon their pastor.
, F IJenco of Progress.
Tho Indications- of " progress were
tangible. As their pastor he had bap
tized about 276 persons, and during the
period the membership had Increased
from 70 to about 300. About $16,000 had
been raised for various church pur
poses, a parsonage had been purchased
and all the outward expression tended
to show material progression.. How
much had been'accampllshed In a true
and devout sense, eternity alone would
reveal. "V '
Mr. Collins then pointed out that the
text expressed that "the hour cometh
and now Is" when we must worship In
spirit and truth, an asked why in the
present time they should be more earn
est at present than in the past and ex
plained In ah Interesting manner the,
differences between the old and new"
dispensations,' and how. the churches
should obey the call given In tho text,
to worship In spirit.
t feopie too orten askea for "elo
quence" rather than the powers of the
Sloly Spirit. Members of churches In
pointing pastors searched for elo-
quent men, for the sake of mere ora
tory, rather than pray for the assist-,
ance of the Holy Spirit In malting their"
choice. Tha.call should come from .the
Spirit In answer to prayer, rather than
from human selection.' Singing, -also,
was criticised In the same vein.
Very First Consideration. .'
The first consideration should' be the
words of praise and the tendency of
quartette and other singers who relied
solely on rendering the muRlc was to
be deplored, as It was impossible In
such a manner to sing with the under
standing. The old-fashioned custom of
Hinging tho well known hymns, which
were full of expression and meaning,
was conducive to more lasting and
permanent good. It was not essential
that French and Italian compositions
should be Imported Into American
churches,, yet how many people rcgarl
ed them as necessary for divine wor
ship. .. . . :
Preaching, praying and singing
should be matters of earnest considera
tion und should be done, in spirit and
truth. How to apply these truths was
answered by Paul in his epistle to the
Romans. The reverend gentleman con
cluded his able sermon by pointing out
how the truths of Scripture could be
applied and how people can "worship
In truth and spirit" by relying upon
the Holy Spirit entirely and absolutely.
REV! M. II. MI LIAS SERMON.
Delivered in St. David's liplscopol
Church.
Rev. M. H. Mill, yesterday morning,
preached an appropriate sermon to a
large congregation at St. David's
church, basing his theme on "Palm
Sunday." his test being Mathew, xxvli:
22: "What then shall t do with Jesus,
which in called Christ." As a prelude
to his sermon he explained the occasion
which brought the persons referred to
in the text, together,' ami Pontius Pi
late's conduct la connection with .the
crucifying of Christ, from which he sug
gested many thoughts appropriate to
the day. During his sermon he said:
Even In our Christian America there
are to be found In our Christian com
munity a large number of men and wo
men, who go about their different kind
of employment from day to day, one
trying to win riches, another one to
achieve fame, another seeking pleasure;
they all may be successful in their vari
ous pursuits and gratify the heights
of their ambition, but if they stop hero
will they be satlsiled? Does money ami
fame and worldly pleasure bring true
contentment? Too often we hear the
sad confession: "I have only lived for
this world, and therefore can have no
hope for the next." People who are
striving merely for material success,
who deem it sufilcient to simply lead
honest and moral lives, are not only de
priving themselves of the highest bless
ings attainable by man, but In addi
tion, evidently must rely upon their
own strength and wisdom, both for this
as well as for the other world.
Will l.cnrn Their Mistake.
"If the Bible 13 true, these people cer
tainly will learn to their sorrow the
mistake of a life-time. Should you ask
them now why they have not accepted
him as their savior, or others who pro
fess his name, why their lives are not
more In accord with his teachngs, like
Pilate of old, they will try to excuse
themselves by shifting their own re
sponsibility upon the shoulders of
others.
"Our present life is a school of pro
bation, therefore the most vital ques
tion of your life is "What are you do
ing with Jtsus?" Your manhood nnd
your life is at stake, and Almighty Ood
will hold every one of us responsible
for the decision we make."
The reverend gentleman In conclu
sion made a strong appeal to his con
gregation to shape their lives to prepare
fur a life eternal.

The Tribune has given this information
many times since the fund was started

quiry or letter addressed to the Young
Men's Christian association secretary
will be cheerfully answered. A better
way. however, would be to inspect the
patchwork, or, rather lack of work, on
