The Spirit of Giving.
At 10.1', o'clock Rev. T. A. Humphrey,
of Johnstown, delivered a powerful ad
dress on the "Spirit of Giving," which
contained many practical thoughts on
the subject. Rev. A. H. Clallln, of
Allegheny, delivered an address full of
Interest to church workers, and among
other features which he discussed the
reverend gentleman deprecated the un
seemly sectarian strife which exists
In church life. He condemned the
workers puffed up with pride at the
work accomplished, when, probably,
that work had prevented the develop
ment of other churches. This unseemly
competition was not for the conversion
of souls, but the extension of church
work, and he was confident that it was
a more powerful factor for evil, than
the work of Infidelity, lu the second
portion of his address he dwelt on the
certainty of the inspiration of the Hible.
Rev. E. J. Morris, of Wilkas-Iiarre,
presented the report of the American
board of missions, which he said was in
a special emergency owing to the great
extent of its work, and the consequent
expense entaUed.' None of the churches
had done their share In supporting the
board, which made a special request
that every Congregational church, and
every member, should assist them In
their present difficulties. Large
churches, well known In the district,
had not contributed a single penny to
the funds of the board for some years.
Reports on Churches.
Rev. R. S. Jones, I). D., of Providence,
presented the report of the committee
on the state of religion. The following
reports were made as to the local
churches:
Hyde Park First church, Rev. 15.
Jones, pastor No improvements, nor
debts. The church in all Its branches
is flourishing and In a good condition,
doing its work faithfully to the Master.
Providence Welsh Congregational
church No special Improvements of
late, -nor debts. The church In all its
business Is doing well. Quite a number
of persons have been added since the
commencement of the year:
First Congregational church, Pittston
Our house cf worship has been ireno
vated outside since the last association
mtwting. It was papered, painted,
varnished and the electric light Intro
duced. All the old debt was paid be
fore we began improvements, and we
expect to pay the present debt In the
near future. The church received a
blessing from Kvangollst Schlverea's
visit to our city. The church has been
revived and twenty-six converted, and
the Influence of that awaking Is con
tinuing, the fire then kindled Is still
burning, and our hope and'. prayer Is
that his visit this summer will he fol
lowed with similar results. The Sun
day school has increased in number, In
terest and efficiency. The Christian
Endeavor is progressing very favor
ably. The members folt an Interest 1n
the work, and therefore they must pros
per. A new church was organized at
Duryea, Jan. JO, iSa, by members that
were dismissed from this church for
that purpose. '
After the devotional services at the
afternoon session, the meeting consid
ered the place of next year's meeting,
and It -was decided that Rldgcway be
selected.
Hcv. Unvld Jones' Popcr.
In reading hta paper on "The Dlacon-
ate," Rev. David Jones, of Lincoln ave
nue, said: "I was taught when a child
to honor the brethren that fill this im
portant office, and I have not changed
my views to the present. It seems to
me, however, that those worthy' people
are not receiving their dues In our
churches In the present day. They are
among the best people of the churches,
yet as oHicem they are almost totally
ignored, and I am here to npeak a word
In their behalf. My first proposition
Is that this office Is not what It used to
bo, In power, efficiency or respect. It
Is not on the name 7lnne an it was
originally placed, nor does It enjoy the
reputation of years gone by. In order
to verify this statement we must hur
riedly see what the poxltlon of the of
fice was In the apostolic church, and
compare with It the power, authority
and eminence we give the dlaconate In
our day.
'It is the boast of every true Congre-
gatlonallst that our church govern
ment Is Identical with the apostolic one,
and that It is the simplest and most
elllclent of all church politics.. This is
particularly true as far aa the number 1
of offices recognized In the church. We
have but two, the pastorate and dlacon
ate, but It appears to me that we are
drifting away from our original posi
tion, inasmuch as we make much more
,of vocations that are of recent .origin
than wo make of the dlaconate.
Office That Entiiils l.nbor.
"The olllce presupposes work. Re
cause the work was too much for the
apostles, they called olhcrs to help
them, -who were afterward called dea
cons. The dlaconate Is dimply the
business part of the ministry. If. the
apostles were able to do all the work,
the dlaconate would not huve been es
tablished, but Inasmuch as they had no
time and that It would be unwise for
them to leave the Word of God to serve
tables, they advised the church to elect
seven men to help them. According to
the IMbllcnl and apostolic Idea, they are
to serve tableH, that Is, they are to
superintend the temporal or monetary
affairs of the church. To this purpose
the olllce was brought into vogue.
"It Is unwise on the part of the pas
tor to Interfere with the business nf
f U'lra of the church and ait the same
time neglect his own speclllc duties,
and on the other hand the deacons
should be careful to do their special
work before attempting to do that
which Is planned out for others. The
apostolic Idea of the dluoiuimte was
work, and that In a special direction,
the business affairs of the church.
"This leads us to notice the statufl of
the dlaconate among us. In the llrst
place l venture to say that our actlotiH
ure neither Hlbllcal nor apostolic In
muny Instances regarding this olllce.
In many of our churches the olllce Is
ulmost extinct.
"I am afraid that persons have been
elected to the dlaconate for the only
reason that they have been faithful
members; it Is a compensation for li:ird
work la years gone by; they are not ex
pected to work; the season for work Is
passed before they are elected, and
this Is the reason why so many aged
persons are elected deacons. No doubt
you have noticed that If a member be
uneasy owing to a bad heart or a bad
liver, that the otllcers are his targets;
lit shoots at them continually, and it
may ibe the best way to bring hlui to a
si use of duty by electing hi in a dea
con." I'leo for Special Training.
Mr. Jones afierw'ards showed the lack
of qualifications so general in holders
of the dlaconate, and made a plea for
special training. In conclusion he said:
"I am not ready to bury 'this olllce It
has been of service and can be again.
We ought to endow it with its former
respect and authority. Give the dea
cons a season to regain the .confidence
of the churches. If there be ministers
or churches represented here today
who have monopolized that which Vas
originally intended for those ollieos, let
them return It without delay. This of
fice will be restored to Its former glory
and etllelency when ministers and
churches give It fair play, and when
those elected be tilled with the Spirit of
God and the earnestness that becomes
their position."
Resolutions were pa.ssed regarding
the growth of lynch law and beseeching
all religious bodies In the States, where
such offenses had occurred, to speak
with no uncertain sound for law and
order.
The following were elected as the
committee on the Messenger: Revs. II.
M. Bowden, Rraddock; Charles A.
Jones, Kane; David Jones, Scranton,
and A. H. Claflln, Allegheny, the latter
to act as business manager. The fol
lowing were elected the "business com
mittee:" Rev. J. S. Upton, Ridgeway;
Rev. D. M. George, Pittston; Rev. A.
II. Claflln, Allegheny.
Rev. J. S.Upton, of Kldgewny, read an
instructlve'paper on "Religious Giving,
Old and New," after which the Wo
men's Missionary union report was pre
sented, and was regarded as highly
satisfactory.
Rev. Mr. Claflin's Report.
Rev. A. H. Clallln, of Allegheny, pre
sented his report upon the Congrega
tional Messenger, from which it ap
peared that at the close of the previous
year a deficit of $.",0 was paid, but trie
present year would show a profit.
At the evening meeting the church
was crowded when 'the annual meet
ings of the Congregational Home Mis
sionary society and the Sunday School
and Publishing society were held. Rev.
William Klncald, D. D of New York,
delivered an address at the first meet
ing and W. A. 'Duncan, Ph. D., of llos
ton, Mass., at the latter meeting.
A meeting of the Women's Mission
ary union was held this morning at the
"lunch house" under the presidency of
Mrs. Jones, Philadelphia, Miss Sadie
Swift, of Kldgewny, acting as secretary.
The nomination committee recommend
ed the following names: President,

had provided dinner, etc., to the dele
