COMES WELL KECOMMEXDEJ) For Thirteen Years the Pastor of the Weatherly :hurch-Lcblgh Presbytery Gives Him Splendid Endorsement. About Mrs. Moffat. Rev. J. P. MoiTat, formerly of Weath erly, preached his flrnt .sermon yester day morning as pastor of the Wash burn Street Preabyterlan church. Mr. MoiTat and his wife arrived In Scran ton last Monday, and Immediately oc cupied their residence at 1122 Wash burn street. He is the successor to Uev. D. W. Skellenger, now of Wash ington, D. C, who resigned last win ter from the pastorate of the church. The new pastor was born in Eliaa bethtown, Uartholomew county. In diana. He Is of Scotch descent, his father havinr; been born In . Scotland. Ht graduated from Hanover collepe, which U located alon the Ohio river In In diana. He also graduated from Prince ton Theological seminary, taking- In addition to regular, polleiriate course, a iHst graduate course of one year. In May, 1886, he -was married to Mary, second daughter of the late Philip Hof fecker, of Weatherly. One son was born to them. Mr. Moffat has a genial personality; sincerity Is the prominent feature of his character. He Is a middle-aped man, heavily built, yet active. His face is clean shaven and a clear, blue eye shows the Scotch descent. In th? pulult his manner is easy, though ef fective. He does not use noteB during his preaching;, but relies chiefly on ex temporaneous effect. His ministerial work began on May 19, 1N82, when he received a call from the Weatherly Presbyterian church. Since that time We has continued as pastnr of this church, though at numerous times Invitations have been extended to him to take charge of other Hocks. The l.chigh Presbytery. On Sept. 17, of the present year, Mr. Mofiat received a call from the Washburn Street church. After a month's deliberation he accepted and began duty yesterday. The esteem in which he was held at the town of Weatherly and thereabouts can best be appreciated by the followlnc excerpt from resolutions by the Presbytery of Lehigh: The presbytery of Lehigh, In consenting to the dissolution of the pastoral relation between the Kev. John P. Mofiat and the Presbyterian church of Weatherly, do so with regret and only because both parties unite in the request and because from tho representations made to us ' In sev ering the connection the church loses a pastor to whom It Is justly and strongly attached, and presbytery, a fellow labor er, whole record of usefulness and success Is not surpassed by any co-presbyter dur ing the time he has been one of us. When he came thirteen and one-half years ago the church numbered 60 members; 150 have since been added on profession and by let ter; many wanderers have been restored to the fold, and although twice the origi nal number have been lost by death and removal from town, yet 140 active mem bers are now on the church roll, thor oughly united and loyal. At the time of his Installation the church was dependent on the Hoard of Home Mission for one fourth of the pastor's salary, and was en cumbered by a debt of nearly $1,000. In the third year It became self-sustaining and is now, and free from debt. During 'these thirteen und one-half years the congrega tional expenditures amount to nearly $24, ouo and the church during the same time has given to outside benevolent objects $1,800. With good reasons his peo. plo have been slow to assent 'to part with a pastor whom they greatly love and whose labors Hod has greatly blessed. PreBbytery also with reluctance consents to sunder the ties which have hitherto bound them together. We pray that the Master will bless him and his la bors In the held of the Lord more than ever before; and for the flock which he leaves we pray that the head of the church, according to His promise, will give them a pastor after His own heart, to feed them with knowledge and under standing, to this end presbytery exhorts them to make it a subject of much prayer and that with purposes of heart they guard against divisions and cleave to the Lord. The stated clerk of the presbytery of Lehigh was directed to furnish a copy of the above minutes to the stated clerk of the presbytery of Lackawanna as expres sive of the sentiments of this presbytery and as a recommendation of the Rev, John P. Moffat. A. M. Woods, Stated Clerk, Presbytery of Lehigh. The Pastor's Wlfo. Mrs. Jl fn is the daughter of a prominent Weatherly citizen, bhe has always tn active In church work I'li'l wns held li iigh reiruid In her natl town. The Weatherly Herald says edl tntiully t-r her: "In the removal rf Rev. J. P. Mon'nt and wife, Weatherly loses good citizens. By her kind dis position, her genial and pleasant na ture, and the sincerity shown In all her work, Mrs. Moffat did untold good for the church and womankind, endearing; herself to all. She left Weatherly with nothing but the kindest and best wishes of all who knew her." Mr. Moffat preached yesterday morn ing from the text, "Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today and forever." Hebrew, xiil, 8. The audience was a large one. In referring to himself as pastor of the church, Mr. Moffat said that only with the co-operation of the members could his work be successful. In the evening the text wns taken from Neheinlah, v, 15. Mr. Moffat gave a brief history of the life of Nehemlah. He told of his siteclal work In. Jerusa lem and the condition of things when he returned to the holy city. It was In possession of a horde of robbers. The people were robbed by the thieves as Tammany pollutes the city of New York. Nehemlah changed this awful condition. But It was difficult to brine; about a reformation. His position was similar to that of Dr. Parkhurst. Tet he conquered. To Accomplish the Right. Nothing will go right unless we be singular In this world and stand up alone against the masses in order to ac complish, the right. The chief field of moral action Is the daily conduct of hu man lives. He who yields ,1s wrecked and ruined. That there Is an absolute necessity for this non-resistance to evil is shown In the very make-up of our natures. We are all thrown Into dally contact with sinful humanity. Its Influence. Easy yielding to the de mands of the world bring out all sorts of moral confusion. There Is nothing more contemptible than a man who can be affected by every Influence. Another consideration: What a poor excuse It will be on the Ureat Dav to follow the vagaries of the world. The only source to resist evil Is In Christ. God In Christ, trusted In, loved, rever enced, obeyed, Imitated, God in Christ alone. Christ strengthens a man for resistance and non-compliance to evil. In Christ we have a perfect pattern; we can imitate Him. Ood gives -us an all-powerful motive; It strengthens for resistance, because it gives the Omnipo tent power for ourselves, -v As the secret of negative forbearance from evil take for your watchword. "So did not I, because. of the fear of Ood." As the secret of all positive al legiance to God take as your motto, "The love of God constraineth me." , CONVENTION OF THE C E.

Concerning Alden Benedict's Fablo Rnmanl, which will be seen at the Acad emy of Music to-night, the New York Sun says: "The story of the play is sad, but mixed with the dark passage of the sombre story were many enliven ing scenes that helped to make the whole a pleasant entertainment. Tho promised realism came at the nd of the drama in the earthquake scene. -Walter Lawrence assumed the title role, and was ably assisted by an excellent com pany. Miss Theresa Milford Miss Ad dle Farwell and Mr. Charles L. Forwell were heartily approved In their several parts, but the special feature was the living pictures, the most beautiful of all stage creations." Nat Goodwin To-morrow Night. The large demand for seats from all over the surrounding country more than demonstrates that the one great ambi tion of our theater-goers is t6 witness the first presentation to-morrow even ing of Nat Goodwin's greatest success, "Ambition," from the pen of Henry Guy Carleton, one of America's most bril liant writers. His work Is a fascinat ing Bketch of American political life in the highest circles. It is cleverly wrought and sparkles with humor and sentiment so cleverly mingled that neither Interfers with the other. The story of the play Is that of a man be trayed by his most trusted friends, who form to overthrow him for their own ends, It depleting vividly the Intricate machlnatlous of political dealers. The Cuban question Is a most import ant factor throughout the entire play. Mr. Goodwin portrays the character of a United States Senator and Chairman of the Committee of Foreign Affairs. In the part he has scored a veritable triumph. It has been pronounced by York's most competent critics to be a grand climax in that great artist's career and demonstrates his versatil ity to be unequalled In the history of the American stage. Mr. Goodwin's com pany is an exceptionally strong one. The piece will be presented Intact as given at the Fifth Avenue Theater In New York; In fact, everything Is all that could be desired to round out his ntory to a completeness at once natural, artistic and sumptuous. Uismouda nt tho Frnthinaham. At the Frothlngham, Nov. 28, 29 and 30 will be presented 'Glsmonda." Sardou's new romantic drama, which Fanny Davenport originally presented at the Fifth Avenue Theater, New Yora, and which was declared to be one of the most Interestingand dramatic playsever turned out by, the great French master of stagecraft. The present production Is expected to prove one of the hand somest, heaviest and most Imposing ever given In this countrv. There Is no other actress on the American stage to day who Is capable of doing the role of "Glsmonda" justice. It requires all the lights and shades of acting, and from comedy goes rlgnt Into the heavy dra matic work, taxing the great artist's ability to the utmost. Fanny. Daven port, It Is said, has made the greatest triumph of ner already successful career In this part. She Is ably supported by Melbourne McDowell, and an excellent company. Sale of seats opens this morn Ins at the box office at 9 o'clock. White Squadron Wednesday Night. The new "White Squadron" will be the nt tract Ion at the Academy on Wed nesday evening. In the third act, the great maritime scene, the Congress of Navies, appeals directly to the patriotic spirit of every nationality and, as the naval officers of this government are represented as being In t..e breach on every occasion, there Is no lack of In spiration for local patriotic outbursts. Over one hundred people are seen In this act, as officers, marines and sailors of the war vessels of the several partici pating nations. Oorinsns on Thanksgiving. ' There are no more popular people In the dramatic profession than the Gor mans, John, James and .eorge, who win appear here In their new comedy, "The Gllhoolys Abroad." No doubt their many friends will greet them with a crowded house. Their new departure Is a great go. John Gorman as "Jonathan Tubbs" and Ueorge Gorman as "Owen Gllhooly" are two of the big hits In farce-comedy this season. "The Gllhoolys Abroad" will be the attraction at the Academy Thursday matinee and evening. IavK' Theater. What promises to be an unusually strong attraction will be at Davis' the ater to-day, to-morrow and next day. It la Howarth's Hlbernlca and Blod tcett Hyde's Comedians. Two seasons ago the "Hlbernlca" packed this house a week, breaking- all recorua up to that time. As the company Is said to be much better than any that ever traveled with Howarth.undoubteo.y this engage ment will be a successful one. Opera chairs may be reserved during the after noons for the evening- performance they are not sold by numbers evening. BIBLE SOCIETY'S MEETING Was Held ia the Grees Ridge Presby terian Chorea. HAS EXISTED fOR 39 YEARS Interesting Report by Agent Kennedy Shows llow Bibles Are Distributed. Well-known Men Ke elected Of fi-ecis-Koport of the Treasurer. Thirty-nine years of existence is the proud record of the Lackawanna Bible society, and under auspicious circum stances the members and friends of the society held the annual business session last night In the Ureen Ridge Presby terian church. The main auditorium of the church was comfortably tilled when ex-Judge Alfred Hand, the re tiring president of the society, called the meeting to order at 7.30 o'clock. Kev. N. K. Stahl, pastor of the church, preached the annual sermon. The election of officers for the com ing year resulted as follows: Alfred Hand, president; J. L. Stelle, first vice president; W. W. Lathrop, second vice-president; Colonel H. M. Boies, secretary; W. H. Richmond, treas urer; William Connell, J. B. Van Ir gen, Samuel Hlnes, Luther Keller, S. L. Kerr and E. B. Sturges, board of managers. lis Many Anunnl dithering. The report of Ajrent Kennedy was read, and is in part as follows: The fathers and moihers who organized this society in lij.il have all pusseu on to their heavenly rest, but they left behind them a rich legacy of blessing for the city and county In which we are permitted to live. Wherever this feoclety has been in vited and tho way made clear, it has held an annlversury, presented a report and taken a collection. These anniversaries have been held as follows: In the Adams Avenue Methodist Episcopal church, twice; In the First Presbyterian church, four times; In the Second Presbyterian church, twice; in the Provldonce Presby terian church, twice; In the Providence Methoelst Episcopal charch, twice; in the Providence armory, once; in the Carbon dale Presbyterian church, once; in the Hyde Park Simpson Methodist Episcopal church, twice; In the Hyde Park Wash burn Street Preabyterlan church, twice; and In the Penn Avenue Baptist church, It has adhered closely to Its appointed work of gathering funds and distributing Bibles without note or comment; and has scattered throughout the county not less than 60.00 copies, in many languages. Yet, many homes remain unsupplled. The Evangelists Moore and Shelhorn, while conducting revival meetings on the South Side, and afterward in Green Ridge, re ported that they had found many fami lies destitute of the Bible. To supply this need on the South Side, I sent twenty-four Bibles to Rev. J. L. Race, pastor of the Cedar Avenue Methodist Episcopal church, which Mrs. Race has been dis tributing. At the request of Dr. K. G. Dean, I sent, in his care, thirty-six Bibles, which he promised to have distributed In Green Ridge, and about the Archbald and Sibley mines. Six Bibles In foreign languages were granted to Mrs. H. M. Bookstaver for her mission work In the jail. Twelve octavo testaments and psalms. In pica type, were given to Mrs. George L. Fields, to bs placed in cabooses for the use of railroad trainmen. Among tho Italians. Seventy-five Italian testaments and Esalms were donated to Rev. Leonardo 'Anna for hla mission work In Scranton and vicinity, at the request of Miss Emma L. Fuller. The Christian Endeavor association at Moosic and Avoca haa appointed a com mittee for the purpose of circulating new testaments In foreign languages among the people in that part of the county. Much the larger part of the families who remain destitute of the Bible are such as speak foreign languages. Special, and we trust, wisely directed efforts, are being made to prepare these people to receive the word of God, first In their own tongues and eventually In the speech of the people to whom they have come. At Peckvllle I made the acquaintance of Rev. A. B. Kukol and his wife, Presby terian missionaries among people of for eign tongues, and supplied them with 122 copies of the Scriptures In six foreign languages. He preaches to a mixed con gregation of Bohemians, Polanders, Rus sians and Lithuanians; and his wife teaches a kindergarten composed of the little children of these newly arrived fami lies: and he teachts a nlitht school, made up of wild, rough, strong and rapidly grow ing boys, mule drivers and slate pickers, from the mines, who speak Bohemian, Pol ish, Slavic and Russian. Mrs. Kukol Is a Bohemian who came to America In her childhood, and waa educated In a normal school in the city of New York, and Is a lady of culture and ability. This is the place to begin, with the children; and these are wise and hopeful methods. The process will be long and tedious, but suc cess will eventually come, and these Bibles and testaments will yet ylsld larga re turns. When these little foreign children become the progenitors of large families In America, their descendants may present a type of advanced Christianity even su perior to our own. Kefercnoo to C. P. Mattes' Doconscd. A solemn and Important duty which we are called upon to perform at this meet ing Is the election of a vice-president In place of our venerable and much revered Charles F. Mattes, deceased. Mis connec tion with this society as a manager dates from IStio. He was one of our most cheer ful and liberal contributors, and honored the board meetings and anniversaries with his presence. The workmen die, but the work goes on; and we are happily sur rounded by many excellent mid capable men, already Interested in the Bible cause, from whom we may select his successor. The older contributors ate delightfully cordial, and wish me a hearty God-speed. Many of our most willing contributors are found In the machine shops in Carbondale and Scranton. Dollar subscriptions, cheer fully given by hands soiled by honest la bor, are highly acceptable. Between the subscribers In Carbondale and thoie In Scranton there exist many lies of atlinlty and old acquaintanceship. Tho Bible de Just Received 200 CAPE JACKETS Open Saturday morning.
