ALE. Church Other News Notes.
The Founder's day exercises, which
were observed yesterday morning and
evehlhg In the First Baptist church on
Scranton street, were the most Inter
esting which have been held within
the history of the church. The room
was beautifully decorated. Tho pulpit
was adorned with a larpe American flag
and an array of potted plants and cut
flowers formed an embankment around
the base of the : platform. At 10.33
a. m. the mornlns service opened with
sinking of the Doxuloicy. After a short
season of prayer and song Rev. T.J.
Collins preached un eloquent sermon
on the work and object of the Young
People's Baptist union. Ills text was
taken from I Peter 111. 15. saying: "Be
ready always to give an answer to
every man that aaketh you a reason of
the hope that Is in you." During his
discourse, Mr. Collins said: "Our Young
People's Baptist union did not grow up
In a night but has been the growth of
years. Like the now gigantic oak, It
has put' out deep and firm roots before
attaining any. great height. Our dis
tinctive tprinolples have necessitated
the use of young people's solcieties in
their preparation for the great move
ment of religion.
"Recently the young people have or
ganized in various parts of the country,
and are now strong in numbers. For
years they had been neglected and were
not abletogooutand afllliate with other
societies. . So the young people's Idea
was to federat?. A number of men,
such as Drs. McArthur, Hedsor., Ben
Griffiths and C. C- Bidding, neia a meet
ing and decided to-have an interna
tional organization to teach young Bap
tists. .. ;The jur following principles
were to he Involved: Distinct prin
ciples. Baptist history, better prepara
tion for home work, and better ac
quaintance with each other. Their
first meeting was at Chicago, July S,
1891. when 2.900 delegates were present.
In 1892 they met at Detriot, Mich., with
4,117 delegates, and in 1893, at Indian
apolis with 3,000 delegates. The next
meeting will be held at Baltimore this
coming July on the 18, 19, 20 and 21."
' The evening programme opened at
7.30 o'clock with a song by the congre
gation. The Lord's prayer, was . then
recited In concert. Dr. B. G. Beddoe
gave a short address with words of
salutation. In which he expressed a
hope that the Young People's society
would continue to thrive. A Scripture
reading by Vice-President Belden and
members of the congregation then fol
lowed. The explanation of the method
and purpose of the programme was
gtven by Dr. Beddoe, whose short ad
dress was Interesting and received
with attention. The next feature was
a march and song by the Junior depart
ment. Miss Ruth Beddoe, a bright,
younr lady, gave "The History of the
Society." The subject "What Juniors
Do" was spoken on, by Miss Mattle
Watkins. Question drill, memory
verses and singing followed; Scripture
reading was given by Henry Davles,
after which John Armstrong read a
paper on the "Hope of Society." Rev.
T. J.. Collins made an address entitled
the "Federation of Young Baptist Peo
ple," showing that In union there Is
strength. On the concluding, thoughts
of "Our Baptist Heritage," the follow
ing talks were given: "Our Suffering,"
Miss Edith 'Williams; "Our Gifts," W.
D. Morris, and rOur Songs," Miss La
vlna Tomllnson. The meeting closed
wltn singing. ; The. exercises were the
most successful ever held. '

Rev. F. P. Dotv's Now Pastorate.
; Rev. F. P. Doty,' formerly of Peck
Ville, the liew pastor of the Hampton
Street . Methodist church; assumed his
new duties yesterday. At both morn
ing and evening services special music
was sung under the direction of Choris
ter i H. C. Hlnman, and Mr. Doty
preached two thoughtful sermons. The
morning theme was; the "Resurrec
tion,", and the text taken from I Cor
inthians, xv, 14, saying: "And If Christ
be not risen then is our preaching In
vain and your faith Is also vain." Mr.
Doty chose as his theme last evening,
"At the Cross." His text was Luke,
xxlll,'33; "And when they came to the
place which Is called Calvary, there
they cruclflecj Him and the malefac
tors.' . During his evening discourse
Mr., Doty, began vblth reference to Cal
vary and Its location, with a short ac
count, of its use and the methods of the
Jews, in crucifying. The next point In
the sermon was the cause of Christ's
being at the cross.' Mr. Doty portrayed
l. A plrlu X' T.. l w-tv-t., ' n
. " a iv, uriunuimi, i.ni ipl o nuviuiie
and the depth of (he misery which re
quired his death. ."The closing, lines
were of Christ's satisfaction at this
finished work; - The number that
greeted Mr. Doty last evening was very
large, and all expressed their intention
of working with zeal for the benefit of
thvuch work and united In giving the
new pastor a hearty welcome.

CLOTHES MADE OF PEAT.
A New Textile Now Largely Used in
France.
Underwear Is now made In Paris of
peat. This sounds like a Joke, but there
Is nothing of the Munchausen order
about It. It has been, known for some
time that peat has certain antiseptic
qualities. A dead body which was
burled In peat for over a century was
found In a state of perfect preserva
tion. Peat is used In the northern coun
tries of Europe for surgical bandages,
and the favorable results obtained by
theKussian surgeons with peat ban
dages have induced the French army
department to use It In the French hos
pitals.
-It has also been found that peat fibres
in combination with other material pos
sess wonderful absorbing properties.
This has led Dr. Rasurel to use peat
fibres for the making of underwear in
the place of flannel. The new ma
terial has proven very effective, absorb
ing perspiration and rapidly drying.
Dr. Rasurel calls his fabric. a "real hy
draulic pump," and pronounces It an
excellent preventive of colds. The new
textile Is already largely used in
France! . .
"IIELLl'IKE DICK."
Why Sir William Orphcrts Enjoys That
' , . I'nitfito Sobriquet. ..
General Rlr William Olpherts, V. C,
who presided at the Lucknow dinner
last night, says the London Morning
Leader, Is the--possessor' of a unique
sobriquet. The manner In which he ob
tained It shows the kind of metal of
which the fine old hero Is made. At
the time he was serving before Luck
now he was a dashing; daring captain.
He was told that one of his guns would
burst If it were served with another
shell like the last. But another shell
was' necessary, and Olpherts was de
termined It should be fired.
His gunners hesitated, and without
another word the cjaptaln sealed him
self astride the gun. "Arrah, ye dlvlls,"
said -he, "will ye fire now?" They did;
the gun did not burst; and the captain
dismounted amid, the cheers .of his
men. This Is how the general Is known
unto this day as "Hellflre Dick." But
why ''Dick" Instead of "Bill?". That,
however, must be asked the soldiers,
'f, Sent No Stamp. " . " '
