RAILROAD NEWS.
Throughout the whole country and
particularly along the lim-a of the
Heading where steam railroads come
Into competition with electric lines, the
railroad companies have found It neces
oxy to cut down their fares to the
standard adopted by the electric roaO.s.
This has not obtained here as yet, but
It will Inevitably come and the exces
sive fares that are now charged up and
down the valley will be considerably
lessened.
Many availed themselves of the cheap
rates prevailing on account of the rate
war and betook themPelves on Sati"
day to New York and Coney Island. The
fare was only S3, Including transporta
tion to the beach, whioh generally costs
in cents. This would make the price
of a ticket to New York 12.80, the lowest
rate ever offered from this vicinity with
one exception the opening day of the
Erie and Wyoming Valley road, when
tickets to New York and return were
old for II, which Is a about a quarter of
a cent a mile.
The little rate skirmish between the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
and Lehigh Valley on Saturday, recalls
one of the first If not the only event of
that kind that Scranton people have
been treated to. Jt la not so in other
cities, however, for In some places com
peting mads are constantly at war and
s a result cheap excursion rates are
the rub? and not the exception. In
Washington not long ago there wis a
lively competition between t.he Balti
more and Ohio and Pennsylvania to se
cure the booking of the western stu
dents In one of the Institutions of learn
ing there. Both roads commenced cut
ting tatts and offering various indur-e-Bient
until finally one t the road
offered a rate of $5 .to Chicago and the
otihei offered the same e with sleep
ing berth and parlor car accommoda
tions thrown In. It 1 needless to say
thta this road1 got the business. Again
the two roads clashed in a fight for
ithe eastern business from this same
school and another war wit h rather un
usual features resulted. The Baltimore
and Ohio, to Mart the ball a rolling,
offered the students a M.5A rate to New
Tork and return, providing the offer
was Immediately accepted. As this wan
bout half fare the offer was Jumped
at and the Baltimore and Ohio had the
afteraction of seeing the rival com
pany's agents go to the school and dis
cover every eastern student with a Bal
timore and Ohio ticket In his pocket.
Hut the Pennsylvania road did not take
kindly to the manner in which it had
been caught napping and resolved to
how their competitor that two could
play at a game like this. The Penn
sylvania agent beld his peace and coun
sel until the day before the departure
of the students, when he swooped down
upon the school with a satchel full of
- tickets and a bag of money and offered
a ticket on the Pennsylvania line and
a dollar for each Baltimore and Ohio
ticket that had been purchased. The
students, of course, were not interest
ed In the fight . except as it concerned
A No, 1, snd wtthont amy Visitation ex
changed their Baltimore alid Ohio tick
ets, receiving the Pennsylvania ticket
and a dollar to spend In ths buffet car.
The Pennsylvania, agent, after gather
ing up the Baltimore and Ohio tickets,
old them readily to a scalper for their
original, pre, W.M. and besides captur
ing the bnuinees and not losing, any
thing, they caused their rivals more
than a. IK tie chagrin by floating their
ticket among the scalpers, -something
that every railroad company utterly de
test. This Aght ended the rate cut
tin. The agents of the two companies
; got together and made an agreement
that no more cutting would be done
aiwl now the students of that particular
sohool are paying full fare and taking

SSE3ATD III tEE CEIOTES
Rev. J. A. Anderson Preaches la the
..Second Presbyterian Church.
MAN IS JUSTIFIED BY PAITH
Was the Topic of Ills Thoughtful sad
Scholarly Discourse-Faith Is the
Sinner's Ast la Laying Hold
Upon ChrUt-Chutoh Notes.
Rev. James A. Anderson, of 1 Roy,
N. Y., occupied the pulpit at both ser
vices of the Second Presbyterian
church yesterday and his forcible argu
ments, supplemented with an excellent
delivery, won the sympathy and atten
tion of his auditory.
The text of his morning's sermon was
from Komuns. til, 2S: "Therefore we
couolude that a man is Justified by
faith without the deeds of the law."
die spoke as follows:
"All Scripture is given by Inspiration
of God and Is profitable. This Is u
truth which the church holds as funda
mental, because it Is u truth which is
divinely revealed." To believers, faith
Is built upon the whole word of God;
but every part Is not equally vital with
the rest. Here and there some grand
doctrine arises to prominence, claiming
more of our attention because of its
greater Importance. This Is true of
none to a greater extent than the one
mentioned in my text, 'Justification by
faith.'
"This great and Brand doctrine Is here
mentioned in as few words as could
possibly express the truth. It is told
here as a foregone conclusion already
established a conclusion drawn from a
preceding field. The apostle in previous
chapttss of this epistle has laid the
foundation for the emphatic truth
which is here enunciated.
Juki llcforo liod.
: "How can man be Just before God?"
Guided by the spirit of truth Paul pro.
ceeds to unfold and explain the only
way. The necessity of 'justification Is
evident from the universal sinfulness
and the. consequent universal guilt of
man. Outward from the center to the
furtlu-rest portion of the arc we search
in vain for the spotless man, and in de
spair we cry, "Who will show us any
good ?'
"St. 'Paul says: A It Is written,
there Is none righteous no. not one;
there Is none that understands li, there
is none that seek, after God.' These are
the words of the Inspired apostle. It
Implies the absolute impossibility of
justification by works.
"Let us now consider justification, or
the nature of Its meaning. How are
we justified? First, negatively, not by
the deeds of the law; secondly, positive
ly, we are Justified by faith. The first
thought, then, which presents itself to
our minds is. What is the nature of
justification? To say that It is a doc
trine of vast Importance Is only to re
peat what 'Bible students and every
Christian has felt and acknowledged in
all ages.
"Justification Is art act of God In the
exercise of his free grace. Paul warns
us not to confuse sanctltlcatlon with
Justification. The phrase to Justify does
not mean to make Just The sinner is
not made holy by the act of Justifica
tion. Its true Gospel meaning Is to de
clare Just. It Is a Judicial act and in
that act God acts In a Judicial capacity.
It proceeds upon the Imputation of
Christ's righteousness to those who
have been given to Christ In covenant
by God, In which God aots as a sov
ereign. But In Justification God acts
as a Judge and because of this Imputa
tion declare the slnnw to be free from
the claims of the law for punishment
and treats him as just.
One kind of Innocence.
"Suppose a criminal to be arraigned
for murder at the bar of justice. The
judge is seated upon the bench, tine
trlul proceeds, the criminal Is convicted.
A verdict of guilty is pronounced and
he is sentenced to pay the penalty of
his guilt. Just then a message Is re
ceived from the executive containing a
full pardon. The Judge therefore re
leases the prisoner and declares him to
be free from the penalty which has rest
ed upon him. His shackles are re
moved, he goes forth a free man. Now
the judge by that act does not make
that criminal a Just man, he does not
make him really Innocent of the orlme
of murder; he simply declares that, le
gally, he Is just, that he is no longer
liable to punishment.
"God Is our King, because of what
Christ had done for us, forgives our
sins ami imputes to us the righteous
ness of Christ and' then, as a Judge, He
declares us Juct and free. Because of
the Saviour's .righteousness being made
ours we are freed from all liability to
penalty and all reward. which are
promised to the perfect and obedient are
declnred to belong to us. That such
Is Its true Gospel sense, we know, be
cause In many places it would otherwise
he meanlnglejs. The term Justification
Is nsed as the opposite of condemnation,
not the opposite of sin or unrighteous
ness. "If you would see how man can
be Justified and yet no violation be done
to God's Justice, go to Bethlehem's
manger and see the eternal Son of God
cradlf-d there, entering upon a life of
humiliation among men go and look
then upon His perfect life. His strict
obedience to all the law; consider His
spotless purity. Follow Him to the
Wilderness 'and behold Him battling
with the tempter; go to the Mount of
Olives and hear His prayer, witness His
intercession; go to Othsomanae and
see His anguish of soul. His tears and
bloody sweat to Calvary and behold
Him Inthe pangs of death, nailed upon
the uplifted cross, crying iMy God! My
God! Why .hast thou forsaken me?"
"It Is Imputed to man, and man Is
treated s Juct because Christ has satis
fied the law for him, he is no more lia
ble to punishment than Christ Him
self. What the Apostle Says. '
"The text declares that we are Justi
fied by faith. If Christ's perfect right
eousness Is positively the only ground
of Justification, how can faith also be
said to be a ground of justification?
"Th.?n we conclude,' says the apostle,
'that a man is justified by faith.' The
simple explanation of this Is that faith
Is the Instrumental ground of justifica
tion. "Faith is the sinner's act In laying
hold upon Chrtet. It Is the means. Such
is the relation which faith sustains to
Justification. It 4s the Instrument end
not the meritorious ground of justifi
cation. "Peace with God this Is the grand
result. The curse Is removed, the Di
vine anger appeased, our Father reconciled.-All
that was once gloomy and
foreboding disappears, the smiles of
heaven beam down like the sun's golden
rays, the thunderlngs of the law are
hushed, for all its demands are satis
fied. Justice no longer clamors for
our blood, for Ms sword has been bathed
in the blood of the atoning lamb.
"And now, standing beneath the
cross, we seek our Heavenly Father,
not frowning upon us on account of our
sin and guilt, hut clothed In garments
of love and mercy, holding out to us
all the biesiengs and benefits which flow
from Justification ana at the same time
beckoning us on and supplicating us to
come and rest on His bosom forever.
Looking up to the throne of the Majes
ty on High we meet no gase of ven
geance, are Intimidated by no threats;
we are not hurled back Into despair,
but we behold the everlasting God who
so loved us that he sent Hie only begot
ten Son and sacrificed! Him for us. He
Is bending over us with a father' pity
and a father' tender care, He says to
us 'Be ye faithful unto the end and I
will give you crown of life," ., .

not appear to be explained, but It was
currently reported on this side Satur

"he Flats, and that a child had been
killed by a trolley car on Pittston ave
nue. These stories created much talk,
but fortunately there was no founda

eled from almost the center to the cir
cumference and In t.he entire plane of
territory did not meet a single ierson
who knew anything definite about
either of the casualties. Lieutenant
Zang heard the rumors and Instructed
the 'patrolmen to Investigate thorough
ly, but there was found, after due and
diligent Inquiries, to be nothing in the
stories. Some practical Joker, perhups,
has been working at his trade.
