WEST SIDE EVENTS.
Rev.W.S. Jones' Resignation, Dr. De
Gruchy Accepts a Call, Rev. Jacob
Scbocttle's First Sermon.
That West Side ministerial circles
were stirred last evening is shown by
the following changes In the pastor
ates of three Baptist churches: Kev.
W. S. Jones resigned from the First
Welsh Baptist church; Kev. Thomas
De Gruchy, V. D.. of Wakentid, R. I.,
accepted a call to the Jackson Street
Baptist church, and Itev. Jacob Schoet
tle. of Port Washington, Ohio, preached
his first sermon as pastor of the Ger
man Baptist church on Chestnut street.
The intention of Mr. Jones to resign
was foretold in last Friday's Tribune
and it was stated that Sunday night
the withdrawal would be made. Con
sequently the members of his church
were not completely surprised when,
during the regular service lust evening,
it was announced that a special meet
ing of the church to act on an Import
ant matter would be held immediate
ly afterward. Henry P. Davis presided
over the meeting. The letter of resig
nation from Mr. Jones was read by
the secretary. B. Hughes. A motion
was made and carried that action on
the resignation be postponed until
Tuesday evening. October -0. when an
other meeting will be held. It Is under
stood that Mr. Jones has a strong per
sonal following In the church and pres
sure will likely be used to have the
popular preucher reconsider his resig
nation. Mr. Jones, himself, Is not overly de
sirous of leaving the church, as was
shown last night during a conversa
tion with a Tribune reporter. He
stated that he regretted the circum
stances which lead him to resign. The
circumstances mentioned refer to the
Ill-health of Mrs. Jones, who has not
been well since the family came to this
country from Wales, about four years
ago. Mrs. Jones wishes to return to
her native land and as Mr. Jones has
received a call to the pastorate of the
Prlorj. street Baptist church at Car
marthen. South Wales, he is disposed
to grasp the opportunity.
"Have you accented the call to the
church In Wales?" was asked. The
answer was affirmative.
"Yes," said Mr. Jones, ''I have 'wired'
my acceptance."
"Then," ventured the reporter, "you
will not reconsider your resignation, no
matter what action may he taken at
tho forthcoming meeting?"
In nnswer to this, Mr. Jones would
not give a point-blank "yes" or "no."
He rather disliked to touch upon the
matter and showed plainly that his
heart Is with the First Welsh Bantlst
church. He does not wish to leave,
he said, hut, as before stated. It is fur
Mrs. Jones' sake that the change Is
contemplated. A few weeks ago Mr.
Junes returned from a trip to Wales.
While on his visit there he preached
several times nt the Trlory street
church. The impression made is shown
by the call he received a few weeks
aftrward. In his letter of resignation
to the church last night Mr. June gave
no reasons for his action. He attrib
uted It to "circumstance." The letter
names January 1. 1.X97. as the hist day
of his charge over the church. If there
Is no change in feeling Mr. Jones will
assume duties nt the Welsh church In
February, 1897. The letter was in
Welsh.
' DR. DE GRUCHY ACCEPTS.
Two weeks yesterday the Jackson
Street Baptist church extended a call
to Rev. Dr. De Gruchy. of Wakefield.
II I Thn I. .it.,.. ,.r ., ... ... '

read at a meeting of the church held
after the regular service last evening.
In his letter, which Is qnlte lengthv, Dr.
De Gruchy expresses his belief that his
acceptance Is for the good. He outlines
his plun of work: he will nerve "no
clique or favored few," nnd, he says,
the members of the Jackson street
church may be "surprised" at his
methods, yet he will serve the Lord as
He directs. Dr. De Gruchy is pleased
at tho fact that the call was unani
mous. He Is thankful for the unity
shown and asks the co-operation of the
members. Kbenezer Griffiths, a load
ing member of the church, read the let
ter. Dr. De Gruchy will begin his pas
torate at the Jackson street church on
Sunday, December 6. 1896. The church
has been without a pastor since Dr. D.
C. Hughes resigned, over a year ago.
A call to the pastorate was recently de
fined byltev. J. W. Williams, of Wales.

quent and impressive. During the past

morning service yesterday. Mr. Schoet
tle comes here from Port Washington,
Ohio. He is reputed to be a hardwork
ing minister, forceful in the pulpit, and
of a winning nature when among his
people. When he preached his trial
sermon at the Chestnut street church
the members unhesitatingly gave him
a call. At the service yesterday Mr.

The instrument he used was a heavy

AMUSEMENTS.
This evening at the Frothingham.
Hal Reld's successful play, "Human
Hearts will lie seen. When first Pro'
duced in New York at the beginning of
last Beuson, the drama scored an in
stantaneous hit, receiving the universnl
commendation of the critics of the en
tire New York press. "Human Hearts"
teaches a moral of a most wholesome
nature and is a play which the clergy
have publicly and privately endorsed
as being better than nine-tenths of the
sermons preached from the pulpits of
today. It Impresses a lesson which no
mother who has a daughter at that
dangerous time of life between girlhood
and womanhood should fail to have im
pressed on the girl's mind.
