THE TOOK MAN'S MINISTER So Says a Letter to Tho Tribune-Cbrls-tlan Endeavor kolly-l.ccturo Course of tho Yoang Men's christian Association-Short Notes. Tomorrow Rev. Warren O. Partridge will preach .his last two sermons as pastor of tlto Penn Avenuo Baptist church, preceding his departure for Cincinnati, where he will assume the pastorate of the largest Baptist con gregation in Ohio, and one of the larg est of that denomination in the United States. Tho general sentiment of re gret over ihls resignation Is voiced In a letter to The Tribune from a member vf his church. Tho letter Is as follows: "Editor of The Tribune. "Through the columns of your paper I would like to pay a tribute to Rev. Warren O. Pntrldge, whose resignation has been reluctantly accepted by the Penn Avenuo Baptist church, nnd who leaves this city, where his work has been wonderfully blessed, for a much larger church and more extended Held of action in Cincinnati, Ohio. As one of a great number brought by him into the church of Christ, and ns one of a Ktlll greater number who delighted to do him honor, I would like to publicly express my regard for this untiring worker In the Master's vineyard, know ing full well that In doing so I voice the sentiment of the many members of the church he Is leaving. "In Touch with tho Waeo-ICorncr." "There has probably never been a minister of the gospel In this city who was more widely known than Mr. Part ridge. Ills preaching to vast con courses of people in the Academy of Music, his active Interest In public affairs, his many calls to deliver occas slon addresses, and his democntlc spirit brought him into touch with the wage earner of forge and mine nnd mill, gave him nn extensive acquaint ance wltih all clas.ses and conditions of men, nnd yet not all those with whom he came In touch fully realized the nobleness of his character, his unself ishness, nnd his devotion to the cause that he espoused. 'His mission here was to save souls, and the growth of Penn Avenue Baptist cfhurch during his ministry is abundant proof that ho served the IMaster faithfully and well. "It would be useless for mo to under take to eulogize Mr. Partridge, or to protray his true character. I could not paint the lily nor gild refined gold. If I possessed the skill of a Raphael and the magic touch of a Murlllo I could not reproduce a sun beam. 'How then would It be possible for me to portray the character of this man of God. To those wiho knew him 1 need not. ' Those of you whose burdens he has borne, whose Joys and sorrows he has shared; those of you who have been led by him along the narrow way; those of you who have been brought from darkness into the marvelous light of God's grace through his guidance; those of you whose hearts have responded to his touch as the strings of an neolian harp to gentle zephyrs' fingers, need no empty words of mine to mete out his worth. It Is engraven upon our hearts; the enduring tablets of our memory 'have transcribed it. and angels In J leaven have recorded It In the Lamb's book of life. "Ho Was Itroadmlnded." "As Tve knew IMr. Partridge here there was no narrowness, no bigotry about him; he was broad minded, and liberal with a liberality akin to that of the Savior of mankind, for, although he was almost puritanical In his ad herence to orthodox teachings In his own dally work, his love and sympathy for erring ones was as boundless as the sunlight of Heaven. "There Is a story told of him that during 'his pastorate in a distant city a poor colored man came to his door one night and asked If rhe 'poor man's minister lived there?' when Informed that he did, he said that his little child had Just died, and that he had been to several ministers for assistance to give it a Christian burial but without suc cess. Finally he was directed to Mr. Partridge with the assurance that he would find assistance there, as Mr. Partridge was the 'poor man's min ister.' 'The poor man's minister;' the man of Galilee was that. "The going forth of Mr. Partridge from his people here Is none of their willing; It is as the going forth of a shepherd from the flock that has learned to know and love his voice If he so willed it they would not lot him go; strong arms would be put forth to bar the way, nnd eager hands outstretched to draw him back, but conscientiously with an nssurance that he is called of God he lays down 'his work here to take It up again In fields where he will have greater Hcope and larger oppor tunities to do the Master's will. "It was said of Sir Christopher Wren that If you would behold his monument, look around. Pastor, if you would be hold the monument thntyou have erect ed In this place, you, too, have but to look around. You have reared a monu ment that Is as firm as the everlasting hills, and as enduring as time, a monu ment whose base Is the Penn Avenue Baptist church, and whose apex Is crowned with the halo of Heaven. Ond speed you, pastor, and may yon still continue to win souls to Christ and bright stars to your crown. " One of Ills Flock. "Seranton, Sept. 13, 1895." Cliristiun Endeavor Rally.

The stock mar ket today turned on the gold move ment. At the opening rumors were rife that the exports by tomorrow's Euro pean steamers would reach a total of nearly 5,000,000. For a time there was a disposition to doubt this, but when it was announced that Lnzard Freres had ordered t2.500.000 of the metal at the sub-treasury for export the street settled down to the belief that there had been a rupture of the syndicate. The syndicate has been the mainstay of the government In the way of keep ing up the gold reserve, and conse quently holders of stocks with slender margins made a rush to sell. Prices dropped M to 34 per cent.. Sugar, the Grangers, Tennessee Coal and Iron, Louisville and 'Nashville leading the downward movement. Later in tho day J. Pierpont 'Morgan, in an inter view, stated that there had been no rupture of the bond syndicate, and that Its members will continue to as sist the government In maintaining its gold balance. Mr. Morgan's state ment was backed up by the deposit of J2.400.000 by down town National banks for which greenbacks were given In re turn. It Is understood that a lower Wall street bank, which Is one of the largest holders of gold In the city, will turn in from J.100,000 to $1,000,000 addi tional tomorrow. This will bring the reserve up to about the hundred mil lion mark. These deposits and the statements by the head of tho syndicate strengthened the market In the last hour, and a rally of U to IM per cent, ensued. In the recovery, Chicago Gas, Sugar, Tobacco, the Grangers, Mis souri Pacific and Louisville and Nash ville were most prominent. In the late trading business was less active anil a part of tho recovery noted ubove was lost. Speculation left off weak In tone. Net changes show losses of ViaL'Vi per cent.

From tho Elmlra Gazette. Old ago has many Infirmities, none of which are more prevalent than kidney dis orders. Havo you ever noticed how tho old people complnin of backache, lame back, and general llstlesshess? And there are many other symptoms of which they do not spenk, such as bloating of the limbs, painful and Infrequent urination or excess Iveness of tho urinary discharge. Most people think they are too old to find relief and cure, but this is not so. No better ev idence than tho following, which comes from an Elmlra citizen, who hns been cured of a very severe ense at 77 years of ago. Mr. William Thornton, of 127 West Market street, speaks of his case In this way: "I am 77 years old. I havo been afflicted with that dreadful complaint (kidney disease) for over ten years, mak ing my old ago a burden. I was so bad as to be forced to carry a belt at all times, and, when my suffering became beyond endurance, I would put on the belt, draw ing It tightly around me nnd buckle It, thus bringing an extreme pressure over the kldnoys; this, undoubtedly, forced the urino out, a function which the kidneys themselves had become too diseased to perform. My condition I put down to a strain I received. I began taking Doan's Kidney Pills. I was much surprised, as the ailment was so severe and so long standing, while I had tried many remedies without any relief whatever. The pain I have experienced at times from straining In my efforts to discharge the urine was almply awful. I have done away with the use of my leather belt, and the pain has all gone, and I recommend Doan's Kidney Pills to all afflicted with kidney and urinary disorders."

The largest locomotive that ever pulled a train out of Boston is engine No. 1 on the Fitchburg railroad. It was attached to the Walthum way train Saturday afternoon and pulled the cars as If they were made of paste board. No. 1 weighs 122,000 pounds and the tender 84.000 pounds, while the cylinders are 20x24 inches. The driv ing wheels are seventy-three Inches in diameter, with centers of steel, and made unusually light, there being a saving in this item alone of about 2,400 pounds, yet stability has not been sacri ficed; in fact, all the reciprocating and driving parts are of the samematerlal, a departure in engine construction that Is comparatively new. The smallest diameter of the boiler Is sixty-two Inches, and Inside the mammoth shell there are 320 tubes, each two inches in diameter The engine stands fourteen feet six Inches high, has a chime whls. tie, and the tender is tilted with box pressed steel trucks of an Improved pat tern AH the valves are In easy reach of the engineer, and the cab has been fitted with a view to making the life of the men who drive as comfortable as possible The boiler has been tested at 230 pounds, but her regular supply of motive power will be at a pressure of 190 pounds All things considered, the Standard Oil freights are hauled with less protit to the railroads than any other class of husiness The oil being hauled In tank cars, the curs must always be re turned empty 'Despite this handicap the rates to the Standard are very low.
