THE FAIR
People Who Sample Sermons.
Recently a Tribune reporter approached
one of the leading pastors of the city for
particulars of a coming event in hta
church, and was Informed by the genial
pastor that while he was nnxlous to oblige
representatives of the pre-. he had a de
cided objection to publishing nny notice
of coming events ns It savored too strong
ly of nn advertisement, and had the ten
dency to draw people from tho services In
their regular churches. While his church
was open to nil, without reserve, tho chief
object of extra services was for the edi
fication of the regular congregation, who
were Inconvenienced by tho Hen king of
people from other churches. In very em
phatic terms he concluded by suying that
members of churches should "stick to
their church" and not attend other
churches whenever any unusual services
were held.
(in the following day the same represen
tative of The Tribune addressed a simi
lar ipiory to mother instor eipially well
known In the city, nnd was somewhat sur
prised to receive the same answer, but In
still more emphatic terms. The reverend
gentleman condemned the "wanderers"
as "people who sampled sermons" mid In
chnslug nfler unusual events, were people
who would willingly pay fin cents to hear
nn opera, but listened to superb saered
music nt the churches they periodically
visited and dropped a cent In the collec
tion boxes without the slightest ipialmn
of conscience. These people had n morbid
ci-nvliig for sensiilloiiiillsm without which
It appeared they could not exist.
Until these conversations occurred with
in thn past few days, nnd within the same
week comes a third expression dealing
with the same class of people, ami Is
written In the following vigorous terms
under the bead "Mow to Kill YourCtiiU'i'h."
In tlie"Young l.ntlieran:" lly staying away
from Its services on the slightest pretext;
by refusing to do your duly, either ns an
oitlcer or member; by objecting to every
thing you did not suggest; by subscribing
for church work, but never paying; by
criticising the motives or your pastor nnd
nil who are oetlve III the work nnd faith
rul III thn services. If you can't run ev
erything to your own notion, kill It If you
can, and thus you kill your church."

MATTERS MUSICAL
The Gerler Zeitunp, Germany, on
April 17 contained the following in
reference to a well known young Sor.m
ton vocalist: "An unexiwted and de
cidedly elevating musical treat was
given the very numerous Easter con
gregation of the St. Trinitatis church
by an American, Miss I.ydia Pichel. at
present a scholar of the Leinsle con
servatory of music in Lejpsie. and wh
is staying with relatives here on a short
visit, by her excellent rendition of the
nrla. "Christ Is Risen." from the
"Messiah." This young artist who nl
ready favored the Trinitatis chu; oh
with her singing last Christmas, pre
sides over a magnliioent voice, whie
artistic training appears in every way
harmoniously complete. Tone forma
tion, pronunciation of the text, as well
ns her whole manner of delivery in th:.s
aria left absolutely nothing to bo do
sired. Her singing added materially to
the Impresslvcnoss of the services."
The Musical Courier of Now York
says of Hen Davles, the famous Welsh
tenor, nt the Hlauvelt-Powcr's concert:
"Hen Davtes was made the male Hon
of the evening, though why it would
not be so easy to say. He gave the
Salve Dimord Trom Faust and fell short
of the ordinary high tenors Ian. (mark
In tho top C, where he bok refuge In
falsetto. He Rang ballads 'mnrvolously
well and the Handel music with great
dignity nnd feeling: but even In the bal
lads he resorted to several nrtitlolalltlos,
etc. Still he Is a wonderfully good Kng
llsh tenor." When such great singer
nre criticised for falluii'S, the people of
Scranton must not be too severe upon
church singer with a yenrl salary
equal to only one night's salary of these
artists.
The Young Men's Christian Associa
