IT WAS PREACHED YESTERDAY (' mil cd Morn Tnuu it Favorable Iin . prciou-lle lias i'W Tilings to Toll and Crisp Way of Telling ThcwPlend cstcrday for n lorn hinntinu of Iho Spiritual and Belief. Itev. Dr. Joseph K. Dixon yesterday began his pastorate of the Penn Ave nue linptlst church. Whatever may have been the favorable and weighty reports; that had preceded his formal acceptance of the charge, lie succeeded ty means of Ins sermon yesterday morn ing in clinching a tie lietween himself and congregation, Previously he hail been heard as a comparative stranger; ye:terduy he preached in the rapacity of an established pastor. The result was m.ire than a "favorable impres sion." Dr. Dixon preached new things lu a new way. It might be said he preached "at" his hearers Instead of "to" them, und he did It In a way that was. forcible and which. did not Invite any misunder standing. The theme was "Equipment for Service," and was from the text "Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed?" Acts Xix:-'. BROOKLYN WANTED HIM. It was less than two weeks ago that a committee from the Flrs,t Baptist church of Brooklyn, N. Y.. came here and made an effort to have the Penn Avenue church release Dr. Dixon from his acceptance of Its call. It was. Rev. Dr. D. C. Kildy who had been pastor of the Hrooklyn church and Dr. Dixon was temporarily acting us its pastor. Dr. Kddy died the day following the other minister's acceptance of the 'Scranton tall. The pen it Avenue church officers convinced the Brooklyn people that Srruiitoii w:m quite u city und thfit Dr. Dixon would have ample opportunity to exercise his talent here und. uflcr enter taining them for a day, sent the Hrook lyn men home again. While the Penn avenue congregation bus had to lie pastorless for u year while seeking the man it wanted,' there now exists the feeling of satisfaction that will make up for the annoyance of the recent past. Dr. Dixon begins his pas torate under the most favorable aus pices. There exists the feeling that the city, too, will share with the church the benefit of the young minister's presence. He is the new type of preuclier. In touch with the world, until ing, energetic, fear less und crisp. The new pastor, accompanied by Mrs. Dixon and Alice, one of their three young children, reached here Saturday. They will make their home at'lhe Hotel Jenny n for several weeks until the house they will occupy on Jefferson ave nue is ready to receive them. Mrs. Dixon will return to Ashury Park tills week for the two children, Rollin Lester and Dorothy, und to complete arrange ments for occupying their new home in Scruiiton. Till': S Kit MOW - In the course of his sermon yestetduy, Dr. Dixon suld: A company of tourism searching for the history und beauty of (icneva, cume upon a group of people crowding un eminence. of I lie city. In front of them was a nigh board fence covered with bill posters an nouncing In French aurt German I lie ad vantages of an excursion. The people Seemed to be SO nillcll interested, leint, tluully, one of the tourists asked un officer uliat il was on the kill boards I hat had such an attraction for the people, Iu amuKf iiii iii the man replied, "those peo ple are not looking at anything on Unit fence; they are looking over the fence away yonder at the lieaiily und glory i f Mount lilaui'." And sure eliouuh, stand ing oui there agitinst the blue, like a dorm er molten silver, the monarch of moun tains was thrusting Ills soldiers. In this busy woik-u-lay world of ours, we are too many of us looking at ihc fence. Our .eyes are hoMen with what man has written and posted for our delec tation. We ure more concerned with the material and practical than with the ideal ami spirit ual. We go forth Into the prime val forest, thinking more of cord-wood than of tlie great brotherhood of trees. We put our survey chain along the sides of ail acre nf land and the question arises, how much wheat will It grow? We lice. I to know, not so much about the natural law in ihe spiritual world, us the spirit ual law In the natural world, This wise world of ours is clamoring for the right man. The right man in the right place is the need of the hour but the right ninn has hold of two worlds and the right place is where iod would have him ami where (iod can use him, either where the tides nre (lowing swift or where the sands are bleaching while. The brethren of Joseph, called the lad a dreamer, but the boy, Willi a far-away look, and the child nf visions, and the soul In much with tiod became the most prac tical man In all Kgypt, The young man who was mustered by Hod became master of a vast empire. DKE.UI8 AND DREAM EP.S. Dreams and dreamers never have a Pleas ant reception. It is time for us to stpp thinking that the mun who has his eye fixed on the far-away must surely stumble over the lumbering feet of the man wno lives between the rising ami setting of the sun. I would rather laugh at tlio mathematical man than scorn the dream er. Show me the mun who has visions of the night, the man who Is following In. visible leaders nnd If he be a preacher, a whole pentecost will follow his sermon If he be an Angelo, a David and a .Mosos will leap from his chisel if he be a Raph ael, a transfiguration will Immortalize the canons he touches if he he a Milton, a paradise Lost will glorify literature. '.My first thought Is: "The Holy Spirit Is'the completer of life." To very many Christians the doctrine of the Holy Spirit Is a sort of north pole region, yet to bo discovered. We can think of Christ ns a person, and from Him we go on in our thought to Ood as Father. Rut the Spirit teems intangible and unreal. We have asked ourselves so many times, who is the Holy Spirit? Wo cannot think Him out and hold him in our little thought. I love to think of the Holy Spirit as the manifestation of the universal presence of Christ to be filled with the Spirit Is to be rilled with Christ, In whom dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. Kvery life Is a little world Its hopes, lis Tears. Its alms. Its destiny using the words of Paul "For we are His work manship created In Christ Jesus unto good works." The light had been divided from darkness the Spirit has hovered over the chaos of sin and shame, and Ood has set the sun of a fadeless light shin ing In our path the Spirit Is now to "help our infirmities" to aid us in growth. Ev erything in nature pushes on to fruit dee crush u growing stem by the wayside und it will at once set about to heal the hurt and struggle right on Into bloom dwsrfed ,and meagre though It be. One of the most ungainly things In nature is a vine. It will scramble over a wall, up the sides of a building, hut the whole intent of that vine Is a cluster of grapes. We nre the branches of a vine thnt has the nfe of God in Its 'veins everything we read, the communion of friendship, our habits of life, the whole trend of our be ing should be to push us up Into the stature nf men and women In Christ Jesus. .

SyJmy Ornndy's fatuous comedy1-1 dritniu, "Sowing the Wind," will be .it the Academy "f .Music this ufleriiooii. The. production was the course of much discussion by the press and pub lic. Reviewing it, one critic claimed that the author In the first act raises the qtientlon: "Muy one who is the offsprinc." in the language of Mr. Hrabajson. "of a love that comes us straight from Clod as death does," the illegitimate daughter of a mother af terwards) notorious for infamy, who bus preserved her integrity under many temptations, and who by talent and ability, has made for herself a popular and useful life, may such a one marry a young man of wealth and high social position without violation of ethics or the code of current hu man conduct? . ... The attraction at fite Frothlngham this afternoon and evening will be the celebrated Irish comedian, vocalist and dancer, Tony Farrell, In his own play of lire in the Kmcrald isle, "Oar ry Owen." Anybody can write a so called Irish drama, and almost any body can impersonate a burlesque Irishman, hut there are few. Indeed, who ran put a play on that will bring out the lights, und shadows of life in the Ureen Isle, the pathos, the wit or the eccentricity of a genuine son of the sod. ltoucicault did It. and Tony Far rell Is doing It. Mr. Farrell shows a genuine Irishman, without any exag geration, with all his tine points of character, a rollicking, jolly, good hearted boy, at all times sincere and bold for the truth. With the threads of the story is intermingled ' love match, with which Garry Owen doe some fine work. The comedy portion of the play is excellent, atvd numerous songs and dances are interwoven. Mr. Farrell is one of the sweetest singers the Btagre has heard since Scanlon left It. Is a natural comedian and a good dancer. fi At Dnvla' theater the seventh season will be ushered In this afternoon and evening ly Mary Smith Bobbins and a good supporting company in "Little Trlxle." Miss Kobhina bus nppenred In Scranton before and has ulwuys been a favorite with the city's amuse ment lovers. She is vivacious, a fine singer and a clever dancer. The piece gives ample opportunity for specialty work by different members of thf company. The curtain will rise at 3 o'clock this afternoon in order to give un opportunity for witnessing the La bor Day parade. ... Lillian Tewis ami a strong company will uppe'iir nt the Academy on Tues day In the new comedy drtimu, "An Innocent Sinner," by Lawrence Murs ton and Lillian Lewis, Tills Is strict ly an American production, a study of churacter life iu the regions, of the Hlue KidKe Mountain country of Ten nessee.

The play is a recent adaptation from the Oor inaii of William C Hudson, the well known nowlist und pluyright.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. tUnder tills heading short letters of in terest will be published when accompa nied, for publication, by the writer's name. The Tribune will not be held re sponsible fur opinions here expressed. n Dxpliiniitiou. Kdltor or The Tribune. Dear Sir: In your issue of the .1th Inst, you do me a great injustice in an article headed "Fined the Constable, North End Alderman Kxerciscs Authority Not Vested in Him." 1 desire to state that the whole article is false and I would say that your reporter had belter get facts on which to Imse his reports. Constable Da vis wus never lined tin by me for, neglect of duty, aiul I never issiul a capias to the sheriff for his arrest, furthermore Mr. Davis is constable of the Second ward ami not the First ward, and In our busi ness we have always had pleasant rela tions. Your article would make It appeur that Mr. Davis would make It wurni for me und that he was going to take action against me for false Imprisonment. Right here let me inform you that .Mr. Davis and myself are going to do business together at the "old stand" In the future the same as we have in the past. The case which Edward Griffin has against Constable Davis is a civil action brought before ex-Alderman Ilorun on a judgment which Grlflln had aguinst one P. J. Dempsey. Mr. Uritlln had an execu tion issued against Dempsey and placed it In the hands of Constable Davis to serve, Mr. Davis informed Mr. Orirlin that he did not wish to serve It and he (lirlllln) then gave It to Constable Cole, who iu turn guve It to W. F. Morgan, who rep resented himself us a constable. Morgan served the execution, collected the amount of the Judgment nnd never made a return to the alderman. Constable Davis now has this man Morgan under JUmi ball for his appeu ranee at court on the charges of impersonating a constable and convert ing other people's money to his own use. Hy publishing this explanation you will correct a wrong impression. I would also state that I deride all cases before me according: to law nnd evidence submitted for my consideration. Yours truly, L. X. Roberts, Alderman Second Ward. September T. 1MHI. Editor Tribune. I, as the constable of the Second ward, endorse all of the above and would suy that Alderman Roberts has done me no injustice and our business relations ure perfectly hermoniotis.

IS IN PROGRESS New York Maennerchor the Guests ol Scranlon's Liederkrani. IS FOR MELODY AND PLEASURE Visitors Here- llunqnetted Saturday Night and iu Turn Entertained the Host Sorlety in Music Hall Last NightSunit! Singing of Hare Ex ccllcnccWill Go to Fuview Today. . The Lackawanna river is the Rhine now and will be until the visiting Ger mans with their entertaining Scran ton fellow-countrymen have ceased to own the region hereabout and have stopped celebrating that all-absorbing suengerfest. The Scranton Llederkrana Is the host nnd the first session was hojd Saturday night ut Music Hall. It was called a "Kommers" and Is a form of welcoming the visiting singers who will take part In the test. The Franz Schubert Maennerchor, of New York, accompanied by their ladies, reached here in a special train over the Dela ware and Hudson road at 7:45 o'clock Saturday evening. The Scranton Lied erkran met the New Yorkers at the station and with Knuer's band, the Maennerchor, 150 strong-, and the Scranton contingent, marched to the hotels where accommodations had been secured for the visitors. Music Hall was a bower of flags and bunting and emblems and flowers when at 10 o'clock the "Kommers" be gan. On the stage were the oltlcers of the fest and Ku tier's musicians. Frank Leuthner, president nf the Lleder kranz. made the address of welcome. The answer was by the genial August Jacobs, the official head of the Maen nerchors. Dr. Wehlntl was then Intro duced as the preslder over the night's festival. The exercises were chieily of the kind which makes things merry and the hall never held Its shh?s as It did Saturday night. SOMK FINK SINGING. There was some very fine singing. The South Side Saengerrunde gave two selections In a manner which displayed the training of the party. John II. Wacker, of the New York Maennerchor, sang r solo with a rich bass voice. His repeated selections met with greut favor In the audience. A quartette from the 1'ianz Schubert Muennerohor sang sev eral htiinor-luuen songs. After this there was u chorus. Henry Dalehemer, of New York, gave the next number, a solo. Knuer's bund played ns n variety rest and, following, wus given the "Sala mander." The band again played, und after several choruses the lirst part of the festival was over. Yesterduy uftcrnoim was passed iu sight-seeing. Parties fit the visitors were escorted to Ihe different points of interwt about the city. Lust night there was a change nlioul, the visitors doing the eutertuining. Music hull was the pluce. and a sacred concert the mi nus. The fume of ihe Sehiibcrts had spread beyond the limits of the German circle and as a result many prominent Scruntonlans not of Gcriuun nativity listened to the melody.The concert be gun with un overture by Hit tier's or chestra, followed by n selection from Mruch by the Scliuberts. -Miss Marie tiraudls, the famous New York soprano, captivated her auditors with selections from Holim und Meyer- Helmuud. Miss Hrainlls hus a voire of exceptional excellence, and the result of most careful training was shown In her effort lust night. J. H. Wacker, or New York, was the next entertainer. Ills rich bass voice was heard to good ad vantage. Following Mr. Wacker's se lection the united Schubert h, Scranton .Saengerrunde and Scranton LleUer hranz, numbering In all uliout "oil sing ers, tilled the hall with a cloud-burst of song. "There Are Yet Days of Hoses" was the selection. After the applause had died nut, Mr. Dahlen, of the Schuberts. claimed ntten llon. He. in behalf of his society, pre sented the Scruiiton Llederkraiiz with a sliver gong to be used as an order bell at the society's meetings. Mr. I ,e lit li ner, of the Liederkranz, in response to Mr, Dahlen's kindly speech, accepted the gift. The gong Is a very handsome piece of work. It Is of silver with large supporting pedestals. ' A SCHlTp.KHT TRIO. Ilnuer's orchestra w-omnineneed the entertainment with a selection, and John Ratz, of New York, sang a pleas ing solo, A trio from the Suhuberts. comprising Its best singers, gave a de lightful number. Miss Kraudis and Messrs. Wacker and H. Mannheim were the singers. "Tannhaeuser," by the or chestra, dosed the first part of the en tertainment. The second part was given up to the performance of a burlefta by The Schuberts. It was a lesson In How Not to-Slng. The performers stood In front of the audience an audience which had just been treated to the sweetest of WHY. do you persist in using those old chipped dishes? You probably never knew you could buy a 114 piece Haviland & Co. French China Decorated Dinner Set for $34.00, an open stock pattern at - that. You need not buy the whole set for a small family you could possi bly select what you need tor $15.00 or less. Havi land China is cheapest because it is tough and when chipped does not turn black.
