Probably one of the most Interesting
anniversary celebrations ever held In
thin city was that of last evening on
the occasion of the decennial of Rev.
Dr. C. 13. Robinson's pastorate at the
Second Presbyterian church.
Notwithstanding the extremely un
favorable weather the auditorium was
well filled with friends of the pastor
not only of his own congregation but
many othera. A charming musical pro
gramme was rendered by the choir
under the direction of Organist Chance.
The opening" prayer was offered by
Rev. Dr. Lansing, of the Green Ridge
Presbyterian chinch. Colonel II. M.
Roles, who had been requested to pre
side, made brief and happy remarks
in the course of which he declared
that he assumed the chair with much
satisfaction, not because of nny pre
eminent or inherent fltne.s for the
duties, which might thus Involve upon
him as chairman of the committer, but
because of the pleasurable pride In
this memorable occasion.
He then referred In terms of praise
to the sermon of Dr. Robinson on
Sunday morning, following with elo
quent Imagery the line of thought there
carried out in the view from Plsgah's
Mountain. He spoke with emotion of
the eaily days of this congregation in
the little hemlock church, lemember
Ing the prayer for blessing this vine
of God's planting and the answer to
that prayer, in that it had not only
been a blessing to the community, but
bad Mretched forth Its branches
throughout the length and breadth of
the land.
ADDRESS OF CONGREGATION'.
Colonel Roles then introduced J. II.
Torrey, who presented the address for
the congregation, the board of trus
tees and various organizations of the
church. It was as follows:
Tho olllcers, members and congregation
of tho Second Presbj teriaji chuich, of
Scranton, assembled upon the occasion
of tho tenth anniversary of the pastoruto
of Rev. Charles 13. Robinson, D. V., pre
sent to him the following expression of
their eonqrati iatlcn, esteem and aftec
llnii; Wo congritulcte him upon the rapid
ami contain growth of the church and
the steady lncrea'-o of etllclency In all of
its agencies urder his pastorate. We
enumerate tho following cvldenct's of this
growth:
Thero have been added to the church
dating the ten jpars seven hundred and
.orty-nlne members; four hundred and
ilfty-throa upon profehsion of faith and
tuo hundred and ninoty-Mx by letter fiom
ether churches; making an average of
nearly eoventy-llvo additions each jar.
The roll of members has Increased from
three hundred end eighty in 1SS7 to tight
hundred and eighty-one In li97.
The benevolent contributions of tho
luirch have been so largely increased
that tho average amount given to the va

AVERAGE PER MEMRE.
This Is an average of about $31 per mem
ber per annum. Tho Adams avenue mis
sion was organized, ilrst as a small mis
sion Sunday bdiool. It has steadily grown
ho as to demand and receive successively
an Independent building, separate sot vices
and an assistant pastor. It ls now almost
ripe for organization as an Independent
church.
Tho Wost Sido mission, torn of tho
consecrated enthusiasm, of two of tho
chuich student volunteers, has been
planted in ono of the most neglected sec
tions of tho city, and has year by jear
enlarged lt3 activities and prllcirncy.
Almost from tho beginning of this pas
torato the services of a city missionary
ha.vo been enlisted to aid In the pastoral
und benevolent work of tne church, This
position has been most cflleiently filled
by Mrs, Carolino Stevens, Miss Mary
Dunbar and Miss Lucella McGaughej.
The membership In tho Sabbath schools
In tho church has increased from four
hundred and lift -six at tho beginning 10
eight hundred and forty at tho present.
There has been no year since 1W In which
the membership was not larger than
tho previous yeai.
The membership and (tlklency of tho
Christian Endeavor society has been
greatly augmented, and a large and eari
cst Junior society has been formed.
Tho growth of the missionary Interest
has been most marked. New life and zeal
have fceen Infused Into all tho missionary
i-oclctles of the chuich. Soon after the.
beginning of this pastorato tho chut eh
undertook tho support of Rev. and Mr
John Watson In tho Persian mission, and
during tho present year, thiough tho
munificence of one of its members, it has
been enabled to provldo for tho support
of Rev. and Mrs. II W. Luce In the N'or.h
China mission. Anoller nienr.bcr of tho

fully laboring tit Africa. From tho mo
ment when at his first monthly concert
in December, 1SS7, Dr. Robinson thrllleel
our henrto with . description of tho Sy
rian mission, to tho present time, tho
church's devotion to missionary entcr
prlso has never been pcimlttcd to tlag,
and tho monthly concert has never failed
to bo tho most Interesting and stimulat
ing of tho social gatherings of the church,
To this more, perhaps, than to any other
cnuso Is to bo attributed tho deep and con
stunt spiritual power of this pastorate,
HIS UNTIRING DEVOTION.
Wo highly esteem our pastor for his un
tiring devotion to tho exacting duties of
his olllce; for his readiness to respond to
every reasonable demand upon his time
and patience: for his tactfulncss which
has enabled him to escape ovcry threat
ened oauso for Btrlfo or bitterness with
out sacrifice of pilnclplu or any lowering
of tho dignity of his olllce; for his cheer
fulness without lovlty; for his courage
which nerved him against flinching in the
discharge of his duty as ho saw it, In
spite of opposition, however determined,
of sneers, however cutting, of inlsrepie
sentatlon, however gross, und 'this with
out any straining nfter notoriety or as
sumption of the role of martyr; for his
unselfishness which has led him ever to
consider his work and his Hock In prcfer
erco to personal ease, comfort or advan
tage; for his public spirit wnlch has
prompted him to heartily support and
strongly commend every effort to sup
press evil or Improve tho material, social
or moral eti dltlons of tho community.
Wo esteem him for tho fidelity with
vvhleh ho had declared to us the wholo
counsel of God. If Ids w-arnlngs and te
proofs have not always been agreeablo
to us, they havo always been drawn di
rectly from the word of God, and admin
istered In a loving spirit
Wo love him for Us loveliness. His
warm heart has warmed our hearts. His
frank demorstratlvemss has thawed tho
springs of our feelings. Without ob-
truslvencss ho has ever ben most promnt
to make his own Joys and sorrows, tho
trials and triumphs, tho fallings and the
risings again of all of his people. No
time of his has been too snrrcd or pre
cious, no hour too mary, for him to re
spond to tho cry of suffering, sorrow or
dlspalr. Not only has he shared our
trials und troubles, but, v. hat is often
much harder, ho has counted us worthy
to sharo in the deepen emotions of his
own heart. In times of Joy ho has In
vited us to rejoice with film. When onco
and again tho si adows of nllllctlon have
deepened over him, his volco has oomo
to us out of the cloud with messages of
hope nnd trust.
WHY THEY LOVE HIM.
We love him for hl apotheosis of love,
human and devlne. The most sacred of
domestic relations hive always setmed
more pure and pieclous as they havo been
irradiated with the llpht of his clear In
sight and warrrcd by the touch of uls
gentle spirit. Alike in the pulpit and in
scclal meetings tho Infinite love of God
in gift in an ir' Itely loving Saviour his
been his fuvi theme. Love has been
presented as iae basis of Christian fel
lowship, the spilng of domestic happi
ness, the alembic of sorrow, tho key-not-
of the gospel message, "Tho Greatest
Thing in the W01 Id."
Finally wo esteem '.md love him for the
consistency of his pure and gentle life
with his ministerial position and teach
ings. "We venerate the man whose heait Is
warm,
Whoso hands are puie, whose doctrine
and whose life
Coincident, exhibit lucid proof
That ho is honest in the sacted cause."
We are permitted to believe that fiom
tho mansions of the blessed, there look
down tonight tho saintly souls who have
been translated from our communion dur
ing this pastorate, and who would with
eleiier ndnds ami purer souls than ours
Join in this expression of congratulation,
esteem a-nd affection.
In all that has been thus said of Dr.
Robinson wo would Join with him tho
helpmeet, to whom in no small degree his
efficiency and success ate. due. She has
shared with him ovety burden, has be-n

Wo pray that they mav long bo spared
to exercise their high lntellecitu.il gifts
and their deep spiritual graces in stim
ulating the activities of the church and
in winning precious soults for Him whoso
they are and Whrm they serve
ADDRESS FOR PRESRYTERY.
Rev. Dr. S. C. Logan gave tho ad
dress for the Lackawanna Presbytery
in his customary clever manner. Ills
reminiscences were Interesting nnd the
greetings told of his sinceio affection
for his clerical brother. He stated that
during his pastorate in this cltv seventy-one
mlnlstets had come into his
sphere of work, nnd among those who
had most helped and cheered him was
Dr. Robinson.
Rev. George E. Guild, of Providence
Presbyterian church, made one of the
happiest addiesses of the evening 'in
his own inimitable style. His quaintly
humorous sketch of the membeis of
the cleric seated on the steps of the
Manse, from which they were excluded
by the vagaries of an electric bell, and
the description of that body which he
declared to be "more unique" than
even our cltv councils or tho board of
control, which ho teimed "pretty
unique," brought down the house.
The cleric, he said, started out with
the avowed Intention of being theo
logical, literal y and social in charac
ter, beginning with the first, it lias
settled down into exclusive following
of the last. Having early in its career
settled such great piolilems as the
antiquity of man, the authenticity of
the Pentateuch and similar questions-.
His high tribute to the honored gentle
man of the evening In being treasurer
of a tieasury containing no money,
was cleverly given. In conclusion, he
lead the following resolutions:

S. C. Logan, George H. Guild, commit

Tiaptlst church' delivered a brilliant
address in behalf of the sister churches.
He said that he should play upon a
harp of ten strings tho ilrst of which
would be the memorv of Dr. Robinson
as pastor of a Rochester church which
he attended when a student and of the
influence lent by this pastor and hit

DR. RODINSON'S REMARKS.
Dr. Robinson then went to the plat
form and responded with visible emo

had been exploded. He said he h'ad

not but think that a skllfull artist had

but that ho woull not grieve his

YOUNG BOY'S NARROW
ESCAPE FROM DEATH
Utile Johnny Sailer Had a Most Thrill

tion Is Considered Critical.
Tho BPnsation of being whirled rap
idly about Inside a revolving coal screen
can bo better imagined than described.
Fotirtecn-ycar-old Johnnie Sallerpas-
sed through such an experience yester
day aftcinoon at tho little breaker on
the East Mountain near mountain lake.
Ho Is now at the Lackawanna hospital
with a ftnetured leg.
The boy admitted to a Tribune re
porter at tho hospital last night that
ho was "picking coal," when the ac
cident occured. His mother 1h the
widow of Charles Sailer and with her
children lives on Sloltke avenue one
of the last thoroughfares on the South
Side.
While young Sailer was engaged In
picking coal yesterday he stood upon
n narrow board directly In front of the
mouth' of the big main screen of the
breaker.
The noise unnerved tho little fellow
nnd ho lost his balance and fell right
Into tho big opening and In an Instant
his frail body was bulfetted nbout in
the steadily moving machine.
Ilolllng about In the hard coal at the
bottom, dunhlng fiom the top where the
scieen carried him to the bottom nnd
in Its fall the body smashing against
the stout Iron axle, cut by tho coal,
bruised by the fall and choaklng and
bllr-dlnff from the dust the little fel
low only managed to cry out for a few
seconds and then ho was still.
Tho breaker bovs saw him fall, and
heard the boy cry but In tho confusion
for a minute or so nothlnc was done.
Then they ran to have the screen
stopped.
Meanwhile the other boy3 gathered
about the mouth of the screen. He
could not be reached as his body was
rolling farther and farther Into the
screen. They heatd an ominous crack
and saw his left levy being crushed
between the axle and the Iron interior
suppoits to the bcreen. After four or
ilvo minutes the ensmer. were stopped
and one of the employes went Into tho
screen and dragged out Sailer. He was
uncnnslcous nnd bleeding from cuts all
over his fuce and head. His clothing
also was trrn and tattered.
The little fellow when icscttsitated
complained of the pain in his leg and
It wns decidei to send for tho Lacka
wanna hospital ambulance.
Late In the afternoon younar Sailer
was taken to the hospital. The f ma
ture of th leg Is above tho knee und
Is very dangerous.
It Is thought however that the boy
will reccver.
