DR. M1E0D DISCUSSES
THE LIFE 0? LUTHER
Last Night's J)isccnrsj in the First
Presbyterian Church.
CRITICISM OF PAST AND PRESENT
Arc Not Compatible n Applied to
the Church of l:onic--l.utUcr Mood
nt the Head of the Heroes of His
Time nud, licing Dead, Yet Speaks,
lie is Best l'u in memo rated by n
Hold nt; Fast to His Principles.
Rev. Pr. jatr.es Mi.-I.ok1. wIuk-p oc
casional lectures on historical charac
ters have been received with much fa
vor by his congregation; that of the
First PreshyteiUm chuivii aiul by oth
ers ho .have hern hbi listeners,
preached last evening on "Mait'n Lu
ther, Kefornier and Hero." lie dis
cussed the great character unit ins ac
complishments more diruus.-i .nately
than do most ministers, ins apparent
aim being to draw a n.oial lesson from
the reformer's faitii and feat len.sness
rather than to Inveigh against the fal
lacies of the old lioinnn church In Its
strife against Tiim.
l)v. AlcLeod cvld"nred a careful
study of Luther's life and a wide
knowledge of historical authority on
that character. ilis text was "The
Just shall live by faith." Hoinans. I. 17.
Following Is a portion of his address:
"It is 3.1(1 years since Martin Luther
died. He fell asleep In Je.-us In 1.1 IB,
aiu1,lcfor the year is;n clns. s It seems
littifig that something should be saiil
from this pulpit touching the life and
character of that extraordinary man.
IN LUTHER'S TIMK.
"The condition of the church and
the world in Luther's time dlu'ered m
widely from the condition of the
church and the world today, that no
sensible person will suppose that a
criticism of the past Is equivalent to a
criticism of the present. The absurd
superstitions and bitter persecutions in
which the church of Home ko freeiv In
dulged three centuries ago, oimht not
to be charged to the church of Koine of
today; and no sensible person, whether
Protestant or Human Catholic, will be
guilty of mailing such a charge. Leo
XIII and Cardinal liibbons are not re
sponsible. In the least degree, for the
etimes committed by Leo X nnd John
Tetzel. They are separated by '
years, not only in respect of time, but
In respect of their spirit and conduct.
Hy beating this in mind It will disarm
criticism; for. I take it, that no Intelli
gent Christian, nowadays, will under
take to vindicate the atrocities thut
were committed three centuries ago by
a body thut called Itself the only true
church, and whose head claimed to be
the vicar of Jesus Christ.
'There were herues In those days.
and Luther stood in the foremost rank.
He was a mighty man of vulor, and he
being dead yet speaks unto us.
"Luther was a Monk in the Augus
tinean moiiartary at Wittenberg when
ho read In an old Latin L'ible these
words: "The just shall live by fa'th."
He was amused; he meditated; he was
perplexed; he fasted, he prayer long
and earnestly. He went on a pilgrim
age to Home, Ionising for relief, and
for his soul's salvation. He found his
heart's desire, but not in the way he
expected. On his knees, he climbed
the nlleged 'Pilate's stairs.' when this
sentence, 'The just shall live by faith,'
rang In his cars, and Instantly he
leaped up and instead of climbing
Pilate's stalls' any farther he walked
down, rejoicing in (Sod, his Savior. He
found Christ. His chains were brok
en, lie learned the truth, nnd the truth
made him free; and from that mo
ment he consecrated himself to the
service of Christ. He made It his life
work to proclaim the glorious gospel
truth that 'The Just shall llvtj by faith.'
A MEMORABLE DAY.
"The 31st of October. 1H17, Is a mem
orahlo tlav In the history of (ierin
uny; Indeed, It Is a memorable day In
tho history of the world and of th'.
church. Neither Carlyle nor Fronde
bus erred In pronouncing that dav us
'the most memorable in modern Euro
pean history.' On that day Luther
struck a blow at priestly arrogance,
and at priestly pretension that made
tyrants of both church and state trem
ble. On that day he struck a blow on
behalf of civil and religious liberty for
which he deserves to be held in ever
lasting remembrance. On thut day he
nailed his ninety-five theses to the door
of the church in Wittenberg, and that
auspicious day marks the fearlessness
and the heroism of Luther, and the
bold beginning of the great reformation
of the sixteenth century.
"Luther contended earnestly for three
cardinal principles, to each of which
the Church of Rome wus bitterly op
posed: (1) A free and open Wide, -')
The light of private judgment 3) The
doctrine of justification by faith.
"For maintaining and preaching thes?
doctrines, he was arraigned as a her
etic. His answer to his accusors was:
'Popes have erred, and Councils have
Tied,' a statement that but few, now
adays, will deny. "Prove to me out of
Scripture,' he said, 'that I am wrong
and I will submit. 1'ntil then, my
conscious binds me. Here I stand. I
cannot do otherwise, Uod help me.'
The man who uttered these words in
the circumstances In which he was
placed was a hero. He spoke in the
presence of a power that had dethroned
kings.
"Luther, at the Diet of Worms, speak
ing In his own defence, and in de
fence of Cod's truth. Is one of the fin
est figures in human history. Thj
grand results of the great battle Luth
er foucht and won that day cannot
be overestimated. For one thing. Prot
estant Christendom Is the outcome of
that mighty contlict. Oood reason have
Germany and England and the t'nited
States to remember Martin Luther, and
to thank Cod for his stalwart char
acter, for his mighty intellect and for
his holy life.
PRESENT BLESSINGS.
"It Is well to remember that It Is to
Martin. .Luther, more than to any other
man, we owe, under God, the privilege:!
and blessings we enjoy In this coun
try today. Here Protestants and Ro
man Catholics enjoy equal rights and
privilege, and that we owe to the ref
ormation for which Luther fought with
such skill and with such success.
"I will call this Luther a true, great
man,' says Carlyle, 'great In Intellect,
in courage, affection and integrity; one
of our most lovable and previous men;
great, not as a hewn obelisk but os Hn
Alpine mountain a right spiritual
hero and prophet for whom these cen
turies and manv thnt are to come will
be thankful to Heaven.'
"But the very best way to commem
orate Luther is to hold fast and to
hold forth the principles nnd the faith
which were so precious unto him, and
for which he so earnestly and so ruc-
cessfuily contended. These principle!!
and this faith are as much opposed to
tlu worldly spirit or this age as they
were to the spirit of the are in which
he lived. The most dangerous foes of
our Christian faith today are not the
absurd superstitious and civil persecu
tlons of a false church nor the open
attacks or a naughty nierarcnr. but
rather are they the more Insidious at
tacks of a cultured materialism and
a godless rationalism.
SAFEGUARDS OF YOUNG MEN.
Pertinent and Practical Kcrmon ly
Kcv. Dr. Hobinton.
Rev. Dr. Charles K. Robinson's ser
mon In the Second Presbyterian church
last night was a practical address cal
culated to Instruct parents concerning
the welfare of their children and was
also intended as a help to the young.
The discourse was termed "The Safe
guards of Young Men."
"Is the youn3 man Absalom safe,"
II Sarnutl. xviil. 2. was the text. This
chapt.r, beginning with the seven
teenth verse, wa.t the evening Scripture
lesson, and was an appropriate pre
cursor to the sermon, which was im
mediately introduced by un extended
reference to Absalom's sreat advan
tages In birth, family wealth and
power anil social position.
"Absalom inherited a great pride
from his father, Iiavid, and gave evi
oence of it by an unusual attention to
his physical attractiveness. Ils par
ticular care of his luxuriant and beau
tiful growth of hair was a bud slut
and one that betokened a heedlessness
of good things. A I ms-halred man."
l'r. Robinson commented, "uffects me
much tho came as docs a short-haired
woman.
"Ordinarily a young r.-.nn is encour
aged by his faaiilv nobility and l
turie ancestry to perpetuate the great
ness nnd worth of his linkage. But Ab
lal.i.u let bl4 position lead him instead
of leading his position nnd the latter
was in part caused by his devotion to
his physical self. It is much the tame
nowadays. Children today are by llat
ti ry encouraged in bending their devo
tions in a wrong direction.
HIS FATHER'S EXAMPLE.
"David's example had not been of the
best. His early lust had Inlieneed Ab
salom when a child an. I the notoriety of
Solomon shed a bad iniluonee not only
over his Immediate court, hut out nnd
over his whole realm. Possibly the fa
ther's early example had much to do
witli the regret expressed in his first
grief over the f-rss of his son. Convert
ed men nnd woirm are never free from
the tinrre of remorse for having caused
while sinning a blight on the lives of
others. Colonel Hndley, whose con
version came after forty-live years of
corrupt life, was never free from the
regret because of the wasted lives that
he had helpted to make
"No chilil comes ideally placed Into
this world; it has some unfortunate In
heritance, which, though It may be bad
pride, lust, love of strong drink or oth
er thing, furnishes of Itself an Incentive
for impiovemeiit. Th inheritance of
anything bad is certainly no excuse for
the possession of it or of the trouble
caused by It to others us well as the
possessor. Victory over evil Is a treat
reward. There Is a denl of consolation
n a mastety over something bad In the
consciousness of strength for good, but
the greatest satisfaction comes with
having rdeased God. Responsibilities
call out a man's manhood. Some of the
finest characters in history have de
veloped from adverse circumstances, of
which poverty wns not the greatest.
"What is the help for adverse cir
cumstances, for an inherent evil? One
word God! Ills forethought and sym
pathy for young men should be a spe
cial plea for the exercise of their man
hood in the proper direction. He gave
His son as nn example for them. His
word is a light always lihining along
their way.
"There are sinful young men. T ndmlt.
but there are more than you think who
can be trur.ted because they are trust
ing. To all of them there is a safe
guard if they did but know that Jesua
Is beside them. He Is not out of your
leach, but Is walking so near you that
you can easily (hid His hand and be
safely led."

Scranton Wnllops the SnhAol Uoys.
It was fortunate for 'Wllkes-Barre
that It did not run up against the
Scranton Indians Saturday. The locals
were In great form and would have
undoubtedly run uway with them. In
tho absence of the Wilkes-Baircans
three of the local school teams were
put up against them and as may he
imagined were literally slaughtered.
There were three twenty-minute per
iods of play arranged for. but owing
to darkness the last period was cut
down to about 10 dilutes. In there
fifty minutes, Scranton succeeded in
scoring 53 points, ami when It was nil
over looked and acted fresh enough to
tiinke tlfty-elght more points. The
School of the Lackawanna wns the llrst
to Hue up against the Indians. In
twenty minutes, eighteen points were
scored. After a ten-minutes' rest. St.
Thomas college essayed to make a bet
ter showing than the Lnckawannns.
but had to be content with equalling
them. Scrnnton wns now thoroughly
warmed up and went at the third
victim, the Scranton Business college,
with a vengeance, and as a result the
stenographers had 22 points scored on
them in about half as many minutes.
