WEST SIDE MEETING.
A notable gathering filled the Wash
burn Street Presbyterian church lust
evening, when several of the West Side
churches especially those which have
Christian Endeavor societies held a
union service in the Interest of the
Christian Endeavor convention. Every
seat in the church was occupied. He
sides the crowded assemblage and the
impressive scene presented In the
gathering of followers of the different
denominations, the auditorium was
prettily decorated with American flags,
bunting, natural green, and streamers
of the regulation '06 "C. E." colors, red
and white, with explanatory script.
In tire, pulpit were Rev. J. 13. Mof
fatt, I). D., pastor of the home church;
Rev. Thomas Bell, of the Plymouth
Congregational church; Rev. J. T. M or
ris, of the Welsh Calvlnistic Methodist
church, Bellevue, and Rev. John Grif
fiths, of the Summer Avenue Presby
terian church. In the choir gallery
was the West Side Christian Endeavor
choir of 100 voices, led by Professor
Lewis Davis. The regular quartette of
the Washburn street church, Mrs. H.
T. Jayne, Miss Bertha Calkins, David
Beynon and Edwin Bowen, also sat In
the choir loft. During the fifteen min
ute song and prayer service, which
opened the meeting. Professor D. A.
Stone, assistant leader and manager of
the choir, was in charge. After this,
Rev. Mr. Moftatt, who presided over
the main meeting, introduced Rev.
John Griffiths, who read scripture.
ADDRESS BY REV. THOMAS BELL.
Prayer by Mr. Moffatt and congrega
tional singing was followed by an ad
dress by Rev. Thomas Bell. Mr. Bell's
words were listened to with the closest
attention. In part he said:
"We are here not as Presbyterians,
but as Christians. The convention has
really begun. The great meeting is not
a Christian Endeavor convention, but
a Christian convention. It is a gather
ing of Christian people for a special
purpose and for the ultimate glory of
our city, ourselves, and our God."
Mr. Bell likened the work of the '96
committee to an engineer who gradu
ally opens the throttle of his engine
and thus steadily gains in speed until
the full power is In use. He said that
the power which moves the convention
and its preliminary work was a Divine
rorce. We have utilized this power
through prayer. The power Is here for
service, said Mr. Bell. The period of
activity is not to be consumed in pleas
ure, but Is to be absorbed in service.
Service for whom? for God. In clos
lug, Mr. Bell thought that Scranton
would receive its blessing from th as
semblage of the week. It will be ail
oppurtuulty for service for tin. Master.
Will you let that opporunlty go by?
Hev. J. T. Munis, pastor of the Belle
vue Culvlnlstic Methodist church, of
fered prayer. Mr. Moffatt followed
with a talk on the meaning of the
gathering and the effort required In
arranging for It. He said It was not a
cause of humanity, but of God. The
meeting closed with the Christian En
deavor benediction spoken by the as
semblage and the general benediction
by Mr. Griffiths. A collection was
taken up In the forepart of the meet
ing; the amount obtained will be de
voted to the convention expenses.
The different societies of the Chris
tian Endeavor in Dunmore held a spe
cial service In the Presbyterian church
Inst night, which was presided over by
the Rev. A. B. O'Neal, of the Baptist
rhurch, and Rev. F. Gibbons, of the
Presbyterian church.
NORTH END RALLT.
The North End rally or rather union
service of the Christian Endeavor so
cieties of that part of the city was held
in the Presbyterian church, on North
Main avenue. The seating capacity of
the church was taxed to its utmost and
the attendance was the largest In the
history of the church. The windows
and chandeliers were adorned with the
convention banners. A shout praise
service opened the exercises and this
was followed by devotional exercises
conducted by Rev. George E. Guild.
Alter the devotional services the Rev.
W. G. Watklns, pastor of the North
Main avenue Baptist church, and chair
man of the evanegllstic committee of
'!, delivered a short address on evan
gelistic work. During his remarks he
said: '
"The word evangelize pertains to
something connected with religion, and
means to bring under the power of re
ligion. When I sneak of religion. I do
not mean any particular denomination.
I nm u believer in certain phases of de
nomination' 'ism. I am a Baptist be
cause, to my knowledge, they have the
largest amount of distinct truths em
bodied In their belief. Denomination,
mechanically speaking, Is a large word,
but religiously speaking Christianity
is much larger. This meeting gives to
us a glimpse of the vastness of the com
ing convention. Many -will go to the
convention simply for the purpose of
having a grand and enjoyable time.
This will not be the case with Endeav
orers; they will receive such Inspiration
as has never been experienced hereto
fore, and will go down into the valley
of sin and strive to win souls for Christ.
SHOULD INSPIRE ALL.
"The meetings to come should Inspire
all who attend to work more zealously.
If the object of the convention Is not
for soul saving, It Is nothing but a great
wuste of time. Hut the conventions of
the past bear excellent records for soul
saving and (his will be. without doubt,
no exception. When so many prayers
nnd so much hard work has preceded a
convention the Lord will surely remem
ber His promise and send showers of
blessing. The effect of this convention
will not be local only, but will spread
over the slate."
Concluding he said: "While this con
vent ion is in progress let us not sit and
watch how It works, but let us be up
and doing. Let us hold the ropes for
the explorers in the vast field for labor
presented to us in this state of Penn
sylvania, and may we exclaim 'Penn
sylvania for Christ.' "
After Rev. Mr. Watklns had conclud
ed, the Rev. D. M. Ktnter gave a short
address !u which he gave much sound
advice In regard to the manner In
which Endeuvorers should conduct
themselves during the convention. Dur
ing the service the North End Chris
tian Endeavor choir, numbering 150,
led tbe singing and rendered two an
thems In excellent style. The Rev.
George E. Guild pronounced the bene
diction. After the service a short re
liearsal was held by the choir.
REV. C. A. M'GEE'S FAREWELL.
His Successful Pastorate nt Howard
Place Church at an End.
Yesterday was the last day of the
pustorate of Rev. C. A. McUee, of the
Howard Place African Methodist Epis
copal church. He has been pastor of
the church for four years, the limit al
lowed by the conference. Who his suc
cessor will be or where will be his new
charge he will not know until after the
conference, which begins Thursday ut
Washington, Pa., and ends on the Tues
day following. ,
Mr. McGee preached his farewell ser
mon lust night from St. John xv: 27,
"Pence I leave with you, my pluce I
give unto you; not as the world glveth.
give I unto you. " He thanked
his parishioners for their earnestness
and help, urged them to support as well
their new pastor and argued to show
the peace that coiues with a Christian
life and how his "hearers might best
succeed In their work for the church.
The Howard Place church has been
greatly strengthened during Mr. Me
Gee's pastorate. There were 30 mem
bers when he came her in 1892 as against
110 now. At a cost of nearly MOO a
chapel was recently built In the rear of
the church and parsonage. On It there
Is a debt of about S400, the only Incum
brance the church has. Tonight the
congregation will hold Its annual busi
ness meeting, when a secular report will
be made by Mr. McGee and the church
officers.
In conversation with a Tribune re
porter yesterday Mr. McGee sioke very
fepllngly of the kindness that had been
shown him and the congregation by
Scranton people. He came here from
Wheeling, W. Va., where he was pre
siding elder of a mission district.
Rev. W. H. Brown, of New Brighton,
the presiding elder of this district. Is
deeply Interested In the Howard Place
charge, one of the most important In
the district. It is believed that on this
account the congregation Is assured of
having sent to it one of the best minis
ters in the conference, but his identity
Is nut known.
Mr. McGee and family will leave here
TueBilay morning. Mrs. McGee and
their children will go to Wllliamsport
for a visit with friends until such time
as her husband begins his service with
a new charge.
The f'prtninty
of McKinley's election is already
apparent In the general feeling of
security with which our energetic
merchants are increasing their ad
vertising space. The use of our
columns Is dally growing more
valuable to the enterprising mer
chant, owing to its growing circu
lation. All branches of our busi
ness has felt the effect of renewed
confidence. Are you sharing Its ad
vantages? "I have suffered very much with
dyspepsia and sick headache and I did

THERE IS NEED FOR
MORE BIBLE STUDY
Plea Made by Rev. Dr. McLeod ia His
Moralof Sermon.
THE EXAMPLE OF PAST EXPERIENCE
Proves That Indifference to tbe
Bible's Teachings Invites aa Ab
seace of Christianity, Civilisa
tion and Thrift--Comparisoa of
Mexico and Mschusctt!i--Secrct
of nccn Victoria's Distinction.
A plea for Bible study In the full sense
of the word "study" was made by
Rev. Dr. James McLeod In his sermon
yesterday morning In the First Presby
terian church. His text was from John
v. :i'J, "Search the Scriptures." He said:
Thousands of young people will be
In our city this week, who have pledged
themselves to read the Bible everyday.
This Is a good resolution. But what does
it mean. If by reading the Bible they
only mean a surface glance at a verse
or a chapter, such reading Is of little
use. The 1 tilde Is the commonest book
in the world and the most widely distri
buted, and yet there are millions, even
in Christendom, who are ignorant of Its
contents. This is a greut shame but it
is the exact truth.
"It ought to stimulate us to Bible
study to recall the debt we owp'the
Bible. Literature, philosophy, science,
poetry, painting, music, civil and re
ligious liberty owe far more to the Bible
than many are willing to acknowledge.
Christianity is the organized embodi
ment of Bible truth, and he would be a
bold man who would say that Christ
ianity has not blessed the world. When
the Bible was a sealed book the ancient
church bpcame ' degenerate and wor
shipped Idols. When the Bible was
found and searched the Israelites put
away idolatry and worshipped the Lord.
It was the preaching and the prac
tice of Bible truth that drove every god
out of the Roman Pantheon. During the
long dark night of the Middle Ages It
was a rare thing to find a copy of the
Bible, and the people had no access to
it. We know the condition of Christen
dom Just prior to the great Reforma
tion in the sixteenth century, and we
know what caused the Revolution that
resulted in the Reformation. We know
that the Bible emancipated the human
Intellect from the thraldom of Ignor
ance and the human soul from the
thraldom of priestcraft.
FOUNDATION OF GREATNESS.
We know what it is that lies at the
foundation of our own nation's great
ness. It is the Bible. And it Is the
Bible, more than anything else, that
hus made England and Germany
mighty empires.
"The brightest Jewel In the crown of
Victoria is the fact that she has not
forgotten the words addressed on the
day of her coronation. She has searched
the Scriptures and she has found in
them eternul life. In all her relations
as a queen, as a wife, as a mother, and
as n Christian she has been true to the
truth, and she has a godly example
to the nation over which she reigns. It
Is no secret that Kngland, Germany
and these United States owe their
greatness to a free and open Bible.
"Contrast England with Spain! Con
trast. Germany with Italy! Contrast
the United States with the South Amer
leun Republic! What a contrast! Why
this great difference? Or do what has
been done, cunt rust Massachusetts with
Mexico. Mexico was colonized a whole
century before Massachusetts. Its first
settlers were the noblest spirits of
Spain in her Augustine age the epoch
of Certes. and Cervantes, and Colum
bus and the great Isabella. Mexico a
garden, Massachusetts a wilderness.
Hut In respect of h!1 that gave to make
a people huppv uiul useful Massachu
setts stands ut the highest point and
Mexico at the lowest. Why Is this? The
answer is easy. The Bible hus always
been a free a id open book in Massa
chusetts, while In Mexico It has always
been practically a sealed book to which
the people were forbidden access.
ERRORS OF THE AGE.
"The errors of the age are manifold
and If we are to meet them successful
ly we must search the Scriptures. The
only way to keep out error Is to pour
in truth! A wronR interpretation of
Scripture must be met by a right In
terpretation. It Is here that many pro
fesalng Christians are weak. iThey are
not able to give a good reason for their
faith. They do not search the Scrip
tures. They do not dg beneath the
surface or for hidden treasures. Young
people do not study the Bible now as
they did n Tornied years. They do not
memorize it as they used to do. Some
professing Christians are far more fa
miliar with the daily papers than they
are with their Bible.
"This Is cause fur regret, because
the sound of the spirit Is the word of
God, and we cannot handle that sound
skillfully unless we have familiarized
ourselves with it. Infidelity Is not
dead, and the best weapon with which
to meet it Is the Bible. At times In
fidelity has used the Bible In order to
propogate its error which, I take
leave to say, is neither science nor
Christian and while it carries the
Bible under its arm It tramples Its doc
trine under its feeet. Thus far the
Bible has withstood all the attacks of
infidelity, in all itn forms, and It is
as strong, yes. stronger, to meet the
foe of truth than ever it was. The
Gospel of Christ for that Is only an
other name for the Bible is still the

SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES.
"Search the Scriptures? But, after
all. we should bear in mind that the
main object of our search should be to
find Christ in them. They testify of
Him. He Is their sum and substance.
The Bible is God's best book, and It Is
His gift to man. It tells sinners the
way to attain God's pardon, God's
peace, and God's salvation. It is the
only safe chart by which to sail over
the sea of time. Here is truth with
out any mixture of error. It has
blessed men in every relation in life,
from the king In his throne to the beg
gar at his gate. A great multitude
whom no man can number have found
It precious, for they have found Christ
In it, and Its exceedingly great and
precious promises have tilled their souls
