Willlum Krishy offered prayer. llev. C. A. Xienjamin gave tho first address In the morning's symposium on the subject "The KpworMilan Ilo snonslullliy to the Unsaved." It wns nn earnest fervent appeal to more In tensity of purpose in the winning of houIs. He plead for less vorldllness and apathy, and urged the leaders to stand bv the pastor In lojai service. At the conclusion of the paper, Dr. Qlffln spoke earnestly of the ceep spiritual bentlmont embodied therein and recommended it for tho thoughtful considuuli.n of all winker. Alfred Wooler sang most sweetly. "Blessed Hour of l'iaer." C. A . Vestervelt then read a pmr on ' The Kpworthlan's llesponslblllty to the rhapter." He emphasized the neces sity of attending the devotional ser vIc'ch of the Chapter, of taking an ac tive part in the work of the various departments, becoming thoroughly nc uualnted with the llteritutv and hist ory of the church; to use social powers to purify society, to live on a high moral plan and use this Influence. Spenk lovins words of one's church, as of one's family. One's chapter Is Just what one makes It. One can do the little things that come In the way and that makes up the great things of life. Treasurer C. H. Newlwr read the chapters which hod responded to tho call for funds and asked for others to come forward. Dr. Austin Grlflln was unable to be present and present his paper, and the departmental con ferences immediately assembled In various parts of the church. ABOUT SPIRITUAL, WORK. The department of spiritual work an nounced to be led by Presiding Elder McDermott was, In his absence, con ducted by Dr. A. J. VanCleft. The character of t'.ie conference was, as In dicated by .ne name, a session devoted to consecration and a discussion over the necessities for more earnest effort. Mrs. C. E. Mogg, the talented wife of the pastor of the Central church, Wllkes-Barre, conducted the confer ence on Mercy and Help, which was perhaps the most interesting of all. Mrs. Mogg spoke In a charming way of tiie possibilities of work In this organ ization. Miss Laura White, of Wllkes Harre, talked on the flower mission. Rev. C. B. Henry gave an Interesting recltnl of experiences In Jail work, and urged more interest in this much need ed department. The conference most largely attend ed was that of social work, conducted by Harry G. Perkins, the district at torney of Blnghamton. One of the in teresting features of this meeting was the excellent paper on "Entertain ments" by Miss Lulu Lelder, of Simp son church, this city, which contained many practical and original Ideas. The programme contained the following: Taper, "Social Etiquette," George A. Harding, Waverly, N. Y.; paper, "Im portant Details," Mrs. Weston, West Plttston; question box, conduct ed by Rev. J. F. Warner, Dorr Memorial church, Wllkes-Burre. The Junior League conference, con ducted by Rev. William Edgar, of Providence, was attended by many en thusiastic workers. Miss Jennie Ball, of Honesdale, read a paper on the Im portance of the work. Master Joe Watklns sang a solo; Mr. C. J. Fisher, of Susquehanna, talked on "Hind rances and Helps;" Mrs. W. G. Simp son opened a question box and a dis cussion followed. In the literary department Mr. L. F. Bower conducted a discussion, which resulted In bringing out many sugges tions for these circles. DR. MILLS' ADDRESS. Dr. E. N. Mills, of Ehnlra, N. V., then delivered the address of the morning on the topic "The World for Christ: How Its Conquest Is to lie Brought About." Dr. Mills Is second vice-president of the general cabinet of the Ep worth league and Is probably one of the best known men In American Methodism in the work of the young people. He is of distinguished per sonal appearance and possesses a pow erful and magnetic voice. His address began with a picture of Christ and his work and the wondrous prophecies concerning Him. The speaker believed that the time will come when all the world will know the religion of Jesus Christ. Now In the terrible ferocity of competitive toll the millions of the earth groan, but there Is coming a day when no one will put the cup of ruin to his brother's lips, and when war will be unknown, and harmony shall reign, There was $ i: There is a Class of People Who aro Injured by the uso of. coffee. Recently there has bean placed in all tho grocery stores a, new preparation called GRAIN-O, mado of puro grains, that takes tho place of coffee. Tho most delicate stomach receives it without distress, and but few can tell it from coffee. It does not cost over as much. Children may drink it with great benefit. ij cents and 25 cents per package. Try it. Ask for GRAIN-O. I ITryGrain-O! iw ecocoso$xd never n more unequal strife beneath the eyes of men than that to which Jesus collected his disciples. Twelve coolie Chinamen landing at San Francisco would not be more In competent to revolutionize human thought than were these. Tho success ful accomplishment of their purpose seemed nn Impossibility. An Irrepres sible conflict has gone on from that time to this nnd cannot be ended un til Its purpose Is reached. Tho speaker then touched rapidly upon significant points of early his tory, of tho Intellectual supremacy of Greece and her after subjection to Rome, and the final yielding of theso two grentest physical nnd Intellectual powers to tho religion of the cross. He spoke of the abandoned faiths of the Druids and the Norsemen, tho con quest of Hlspanla and Gaul, and ridi culed the sometimes heard Htntemcnt that materialism and Infidelity are gaining ground, THE CHURCH WON. The victory that Diocletian nnd Por phyry failed to gain tho church won. In Madagascar today the Sabbath is better observed than in Pennsylvania or New York. In tho Sandwich Islands more Is paid Individually for missions than in Elm Park church. In the FIJI Islands not a Pagan remains and 10.", 000 out, of 110,000 church members are Wesleyan Methodists. Here In Amer ica we need to greet those who come to our shores with fewer brickbats nnd more love, to send away to the heathen less whisky and more missionaries. The speaker then made a strong appeal for an increased missionary spirit In tin' league. Mr. Wooler sang a solo. The committee on resolutions was announced bv President Race as fol lows: Dr. C. E. Mogg, Wyoming dis trict; Rev. G. D. Genung, Blnghamton; Rev. II. A. Greene, Oneonta; Mrs. A. C. Tolley, Honesdale: Rev. Ralph D. Hartsock, Chenango; Miss Gertrude Ressegule, Blnghamton. THE AFTERNOON SESSION. It wns a welcome sight to the many members of Elm Park church to see Rev. Dr. W. II. Pearce, of the First church, Wilkes-Barre, on the platform ns presiding ofllcer. A service of song conducted by Mr. Surdnm opened the session. Rev. O. L. Severson offered prayer. Dr. Pearce spoke of the as surance of the presence of the Inspira tion of God In the convention. Dr. Pearce Introduced Mrs. Henry W. Pal mer, of Wilkes-Bari-e, in words of deepest appreciation. "One of the best, the truest and most faithful workers of the land," he termed her as she took her place on the stand. Mrs. Palmer opened her address with a happy allus ion to nges, she believed In remaining young. She liked best audiences of thoughtful young men and women. She spoke of the eager beautiful time of youth when climbing1 the mountain steeps Is but play. Close by the side of the gay, happy ones, all unseen and unnoticed perhaps, trudges a great army of little tollers, bending beneath a harness which they never, never can throw off, never having had a holi day, never a week of pleasure in their dreary lives. They look nt the merry ones going to school with their1 books and perhaps sometimes wonder, not er roneously, why It Is that some have so much and they so little. In the most beuutlful Imagery she pictured the effect of neclect nt the transition period of the human roes of life. She described in powerful tones that touched her listeners the reasons why many young girls are found on the streets at night the poor young worker starving for companionship. The boy workers from ten to fifteen years of nge driven to the streets nt night for fresh air after a day of toll In vile atmosphere, are perhaps Innocent tonight. What will they bo In five years? Why do we not help these in the transition time? How Is the boy of 1C to know that the many tempta tions on the streets will flnnlly drag him down. The Sunday schools do not get these boys: the Young Men's Christian association does not get them, but tho saloons do, nnd so do the Jails and penitentiaries. The Methodist church has the leverage of the world In its hands, because of the greatest number of young people in Protestantism. They should do some thing for the multitudes of breaker boys, newsboys and other little tollers In Scranton, and wherever thev may be. A GRAPHIC PICTURE. Mrs. Palmer then gave a graphic pic ture of the way in which she started in the work for the boys. First, she thought of putting a little brightness Into their lives. She did not see fur ther than that. It began with an en tertainment which turned into a night school. This was seven years ago. Then it was difficult to find people to entertain tho boys. Now the enter tainments are booked to February, and there are many waiting willing to ns elst the B. I. A, These entertainments nro held each Saturday night begin ning with a half hour's address on practical helpful thoughts. ' it was not long until entertainments were not enough for these boys. They wanted a debating club. They now discuss all sorts of subjects, they go to the libra ry, they urge older men to give of their wisdom. From these have grown out a glee club, night schools, a man ual training school where carpentry, mending shoes, seating chairs and oth er industries are practically applied. The results are broucht back on the streets. In the homes. In tho shops, In a cessation of cigarette smoking, of evil language and ruffianism. The desire of her life Is to place In Wllkes-Barre a manual training school such as tho Pratt Institute. The money for carrying on the work has come unasked by the hundreds and thousands of dollars. Recently a sa loon keeper sent a large check with the words: "Tlinnk God somebody i.9 taken thought to make something be sides bartendeiH out of boys." Mrs. Palmer was often interrupted with ap plause and what was better than dem onstration were tho eyes, tear dimmed over the audience, telling of hearts moved by her Impassioned appeal. Dr. I'rarce supplemented her ad! dress by eloquently telling of his ex perience in speaking before .this nrmy of 700 boys of Mrs. Palmer's. The Carmcl trio then sang a beauti ful selection. THE AID SOCIETY. Dr. A. J. Van Cleft made nn appeal for the Preachers' Aid Society urged the various Chapters to give entertain ments for this purpose. Rev. It. M. Crydenwiso read the first symposium paper on "The Holy Spirit" under tliu tltlo "Our Need of Him." His part of tho programme wns carefully prepared and contained keen logic nnd spirituality. Mrs, A. F. Chaffee of Asbury church continued the subject with a paper "Hindrances to Ills Coming" which had In it much deeply significant thought, fine diction nnd pure true theology. Rev. W. L. Hlller was not present. Rev. E. R. D. Brlggs followed with an interesting paper on "Communion a real Inter communication" containing much that was uplifting and helpful. Row George Forsyth, Presiding E16- NEEDLESS SUFFERING Why Will Tnoplo I'liduro Sn Much When It Can Ha llnsllv Avoided. ."The great American trouble Is dyspep sia." No ono realizes this more than the mis erable sufferers who drnsr out painful ex istences. Tho bojy requires help, strength nnd assistance It calls for nutriment, but meets no response, because, the stom ach Is unable to digest, asslmllato and turn Into blood food Mint Is forced Into It. What then can tho poor sufferer do7 It Is useless to take more food because tho broken-down stomach cannot tnko care of what It already haH, There can be but one answer to this question, and that Id to ORslst the stom ach to properly do the work for which It was created. Do you ask how? The an swer Is simple. There can be but one way and that Is to help the stomach to help Itself. Not by drugs, not by mineral washes, not even by massaging, but by constant and healthful stimulation. In this way niono can tho overworked stoin hch bo restored. There Is but ono pure, healthful and medicinal stimulant now known to tho public nnd the profession, and that Is Duffy's lMro Malt Wlhiskey. Tho whis key should bo taken either before, after or with the meals, and you can readily see how by gently stimulating tho stoni ueh When tho food Is taken, it enables the stomach to digest the food and thus prevent dyspepsia nnd the troubles which follow In Its wake. It will be well for every reader to te member these truth and also to remem ber that It Is tho only medicinal whiskey which can be depended upon to accom plish Just what you most require. er of the Owego district gave a scholar ly and Interesting paper on "Tho Un used Force." After illustrations re regardlng various forces in the ma teral and scientific world. Tho spenk er ipoke earnestly of the great Intel lectual force of the young people in the Methodist church. The growth and success of the Epworth League has transcended everything ever hop ed It Is hardly possible to speak of unused forces without mentioning the natural enthusiasm always manifested by young people If continued In the work of the Leaguy with the aim, Individual purity and whole htarted ness. nothing js too great to accom plish by tiie art of such consecration and enthusiasm. The session adjourned. The evening service wns very large ly attended. Rev. John II. Race con ducted the opening service. The bril liant young president of the confer ence league Is a favorite among both old and voung. His earnestness and high Ideals are nn Inspiration to the assemblages which he directs. In the choir loft were two familiar figures Hint brought up a sad recollection, for a vacant place in the Wyoming trio remains since Rev. W. B. Westlake went away forever, a few weeks ago. Rev. J. B. Sumner and J. C. Leacock were present, and no doubt their en joyment of the occasion was shadowed by the memory of the silent voice so long mlnged with theirs In the sweet est song. A STIRRING ADDRESS. Rev. Dr. Charles C. Albertson, the speaker of the evening, was Introduced most happily by Rev. Dr. Giffln. Dr. Albertson has the face of a poet and the pulpit presence of nn Inspired prophet. His address wonderfully stirred his listeners, who felt that his prophecy of the church of the future might bo a reality In which each one could have a part. He spoke of the multi-organizations', perhaps the over organizations, which characterizes the church of today, and compared the present with the past, reflecting on the fact that nothing Is as It was and nothing Is going to be n.s It Is except in the realm of the unseen. Schools and colleges of today are not those of our fathers. Fifty years ago hardly a reputable college or higher school would admit a wo man. Things have changed since a college president advised the women who knocked at the doors to go and wash dishes, and If that failed, to go and get married. Wo have come to tho place where power to learn implies the light to learn. Fifty years a10 tho life of a college centered in class rooms. Now it Is In the laboratory or the library. Education really consists of Independ ent research and Individual investi gation. People are asking all sorts of ques tions now. and naturally the question arise, "What shall be the church of the future?" First of all, there Is going to be a. church tomorrow. Those are mis erable prophets who say the church is to fall or is outgrown. The religious instinct Is Infallible as all natural in stincts are. The church will live after its detractors have reached oblivion. The churches might be burned, the Blliles might bo destroyed, tho preach ers banished, to dungeons or execution, but there would still lie a church. A LARGE CHURCH. Tho church of tomorrow will bo a largo church. The man who now says he belongs to the big church will not al ways bo able to say that. There will come a day when he must answer that he belongs to the little church when he means no church at all. It will be a militant church. It Is to wield weapons nnd wage warfare In an offensive attitude against Iniquity. Such Is the timidity or cowardice of the average Christian that to quote the newspaper parody: , In the world's broad field of battle; In the bivouac of life; Tho averago professing Christian Is represented by his wife. In tho church of Christ of the future no ono will either dure to openly defend or secretly protect the saloon. But tho man who thinks the saloon the onlv great evil today which should be fought makes a serious mistake. Froebel said nothing is known until It Is known in its relations. And the man who wages a one-sided war against the saloon is fighting an up to date devil with antiquated weapons. Tho speaker then made a statement that made some people open their eyes when he said: "Unhygienic co d Ins, unscientific housekeeping, tenement life and the sweatshops are evils which 1 eed to bo fought equally with the sa loon. Tho liquor traille will never be abolished by sermons, resolutions or prayers, ballots or bullets. It will never be crushed until the church of tomor row faces with unveiled vision these problems and sets out to tear down sweatshops, clean up the tenement houso nnd train untaught children how to cook and to keep house." TENEMENT EXPERIENCE. The experience of a newspaper wo man who went In the tenement dis tricts to investigate the mode of life was given with graphic effect. Tho diet consisted of soggy bread, a very tough quality of beefsteak fried In lard, a very fat quality of bacon fried In its own grease, Irish potatoes soaked in lard gravy, a cheap quantity of tea or coffee, tho latter at 7 cents a pound with a stick of licorice to color it. He then said: "Let a man 16 or 18 hours a day living on that diet and ho will rise from the table with an insatla. bel tongue to rush to tho nearest dram shop to quench that craving," A most fUsclnatlng description of n college settlement cooking lesson was given at tills point, whero a clean sheet tnble cloth and newly washed dishes figured extensively in a family dinner that cost less than 25 cents. Militant Christianity must concern these common things. Tho live must bo still lew Invisible between secular nnd religious work. Too many poor people are robbed by pawnbrokers and usurers who have been known to charge nt tho rate of 120 per cent. Too much of this exists In n country whero there is militant Christianity, too much bribery In legislatures, too many Jurors corrupt and corruptible, too many Judges bought oft and yet the Judiciary Is the cleanest branch of government, up to date. Tho day will come when the weak-kneed legis lator and Invertebrate magistrate will be dragged from their olllce by the ballots of the people, who are bred In the church. The church of the fu ture will have multiform and various activities, fewer denominations with more confederation of those that exist. There is no reason In the world why the Methodist Episcopal church nnd the Methodist church South, should both lie in existence. NOT AN EXCLUSIVE CHURCH The church of tomorrow will not be an exclusive church. It might lie In teresting to ask In an exclusive church who are excluded the poor or the rich, tile well bred or 111 bred, the moral or Immoral? The exclusive church Is un ilenioctatle, unchrlstlanllko nnd filled with colossal conceit, Christ was the most Inclusive character in the world's history. The church of .tomorrow will be a church of essential doctrines a short creed, tint briefer thun that of St. Paul, but that Is brief. It will bo founded on the rock of free doctrine, a present and personal God, nn omnipo tent, diviup and personal Saviour. We ask: 'What must I do to lie saved?' Baptized? He didn't say that. Join the church? Ho didn't say that. Know church history? He didn't say that. These are luterestlng nnd Important questions, but for admis sion the church of tomorrow will in sist upon nothing more than accept ance of Jeans Christ, the divine Savior. Paul In the charter of our faith, said: 'If thou shalt confess from thy heart the Lord Jesus and believe In thy heart that he rose from the dead, thou shalt be saved." " At the close of the address President Race made n tender, fervent appeal for a final consecration befoie separ ating. He urged the Epworthians not only to strive to reach heaven nfter living noble lives, but to help others while on the way. Dr. C. E. Mogg read the following resolutions, which were adopted: Whereas Hod lias graciously owned our Epworth League In making It n elv'l, social, intellectual an J spirit. lal blessing, and Whereas. These annual gatlwnes have been made to us liteh feast days, thore- loro Resolved, That we express our apu-ecl-atlon of the wise and untlrinc efforts of our conference president, tha Rev. John II.

Finally Resolved, That as our faces nre turned homeward wo covenant with each other and with God to do our best to honor Christ and to save men. PRAYER AND BENEDICTION.

Daniel Williams, the veteran coal operator of the Luzerne und Lacka wanna region, was In Pottsvllle yes terday for a, Bhort time. Mr. Williams Is at the head of a syndicate who has secured 450 acres of coal lund on the Navigation und Ronaldson tracts lo cated partly In the Sixth ward, Potts vllle, and extending Into Norwegian township.

Dr. Jennlson, who has made a life study of stomach troubles, says: All forms of Indigestion really amount to tho same thing, thnt Is, failure to com pletely digest the food eaten; no mat ter whether the trouble Is acid dys pepsia or sour stomach, belching of wind, nervous dyspepsia or loss of flesh and appetite; a person will not have any of them If tho stomach can bo in duced by nny natural, harmless way, to thoroughly digest what Is eaten, and this can be done by a simple remedy which I have tested In hundreds of aggravated cases with complete suc cess. Tho remedy is a combination of fruit and vegetable essence, pure ns ceptlc pepsin and golden seal put up in tho form of pleasant tasting tablets and sold by druggists under the numo of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. One or two of these tablets should bo taken nfter meals and allowed to dissolve In the mouth and mingling with the food In the stnmnch, digests it completely befoie It has time to ferment, decay and sour. On actual experiment one grain of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest three thousand grains of meat, eggs and similar wholesome foods. It Is snfe to say, If this wholesome remedy wns better known, by people generally, It would be a nntlonal bless ing, as we nre a nation of dyspeptics, nnd nine-tenths of nil diseases owe their origin to Imperfect digestion nnd nutrition. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not a secret patent medicine, but a fifty cent packnge will do more real good for a weak stomach than fifty dollars worth of patent medicines and a per son hns the satisfaction of knowing Just what he Is putting Into his stom ach, which he does not know, when widely advertised patent medicines are used. depth: The Tunnel, Lewis, Little, Trucey and Big Tracey. Everything looks favorable as far as proving the veins are concerned and Mr. Williams Is sanguine that the lands will be pro ductive of a sood quality of coal and plenty of It. The company when or ganized will be capitalized at $230,000, and in the near future a magnificent breaker will loom up In the confines uf Pottsvllle that will give employment to S00 or 600 men and boys. The company will have the advant age of two railways to ship their coal on, the Reading and Pennsylvania, which will be quite nn Item to them In sending their coal to market. We understand that the Williams Coul company, located a short dis tance above the Navigation and Iton aldson tracts, will erect an additional breaker or extend the present one In the near future. Their Increased out put will warrant the additional ex pense. Pottsvllle Republican. MEETING OF GRAND DIRECTORS. Tliey Assemble in This 'City on Next Saturday.
