Thlity-nve Kcmnton ministers were
roundly stored yesterday afternoon In
Hie Young Men's Christian nsosclatlon
hull l.y ltev. Dr. Wilbur V. CiaftH, of
WnshltiBton, D. C, Huperlntendelit of
the National Hi-finm buieau. The crltl
i Ism was offeied In Di Craft's address
.on lofoJiT. to iv Katheilns of represon-laUves-of
the ilty's otimr lieoiile'B soci
eties It mim piompted b the iilleRml
fnllute or the inlnlsteis to keep their
pledRe to study and dlscims n line of
lefoim toplis ni a pteparatlon for the
local lefoim movement.
jir. Cra-ftn Plated that the tlility-llve
Dllnl'teiH seuiul week- utjo had made
u column vow to nieft rcKUlally, dls
( u lefoim topics which had been ug
iodet1 by the miealtei nnd pursue the
work In Strnnton uitordlnir to his suij
i...aiinn tin lejjielticl to nay they had
ignored their tiust and vvliatevei had
been done In suppi easing impioper
pos'teis nnd getting tld of the slot ma
thlnes was due to tiu- effoi ts or per
sons otlier than those whose cloth to
-n nothing of their pi omK.s Indi
cated the should be fotetnost in the
Willi.
At tho u eetin following that on
whUh the plodg." was made, he said,
only eight ul the thirty -live attended,
nnd at the next meeting onl two weie
piesent. Consldei lug their piomise, no
ixeu-es other than those which might
explain their -absence Horn piaer
meeting, for Instance, could nbsolvn
them f lorn breaking theit compact. Ho
doubted that many of them tduld glvo
HUdi leasons for their jbienies.
THRY AIIE UNWORTHY.
Too many inlnlsteis, he t-ald, nie un
wot thy of their calling, because they
attend too closely to the nit of pleach
ing while neglecting the delving in the
tint lequlied of them A minister who
would giasp the plow and lelease his
hold lacked the characteristics essen
tial to the cloth: they showed too much
of the priest and too little of the
piophet.
Dr. Crafts hoped, however, that the
tlility-llve inlnlsteis would attend the
mnfeience to be lield In the Young
Men' Christian association building at
8 o'clock this evening, when the leform
woik In Scranton would be discussed.
The meeting is to be attended also by
the lay committee, who weie to act In
conjunction with the pastors, and by
ofllceis of the young people's societies,
the Woman's Christian Tempeiance
union and tho Young Men and Young
Woman's Christian associations
Yestei day's meetlnff at the Young
Men's Christian association was at
tended bj about two hundred peisons.
Tlioie were few women in. the audi
ence Street Commissioner A. U. Dun
ning pieslded. Prnjer was offered and
the scriptures read by Rev. O W.
AVelsh, pastor of Calvary Reformed
church. The Finging was accompanied
with music by the association orches
tra. One of the orchestra pieces In
cluded a trombone solo by John Turn
Dr. Ciafts' address was almost wholly
onflned to a plea for indivldunl effort
In did of Sabbath nnd legislative le
f hi ma. He uiged ills heaters to make
it their peisonal business to do what
they could to coriect any of the great
public evils. Gteat icsults weie often
attulned b Touching the mall box,"
as he expt eased it wilting letters to
the niaoi, the chief of police, the leg
Nl.ituies, tile governor, congressmen,
sonatois or the president, unending to
ie natuie of the case. He cited how
a single letter to the late William Van
ileibllt hod stopped the Sunday cheap
pcuihlon evil on all the loads in the
gieat Vnnderbllt system
REFORMS ACCOM l'USHF.b
He vvu.s clad to obseive that since
his last visit Indecent bill posting had
been stooped and that slot-machines
had been ntatlj abolished in the cen
tul city wauls He thanked the
oungei filends of the movement for
at least their lutcieht which, he be
lieved, accounted for the flint successes,
and hoped for tho futuie uppioval and
support of the imstois In tin move
ment against Sunday saloons,
Once, he said, he had been able to
s.iy that Seunton vva a moial city.
He was souy now it did not compaie
In that l expect with the two othei lead

and Plttsbuig, Mhire the Sundav .saloon

Here, he said he undeixlnod nearly all
theanloons weio open at the bark door
and some of them ut the front
At the conclusion of tli. meeting ie

HIS AUL.RR ADDllHSSKS.
Yest'jrday morning Ur. Crafts deliv
ered un address In the Simpson Meth
odist chiirch on the West Side, on "Na
tional Pel lis and Hopes." He made
this statement
"The chief concern of statesman nnd
preacher alike, the one too exclusively
abmbed In national llnnnce, the oth'er
In individual iqmeislons. Should he the
ten cyclonlf clouds, which, since Uie
war have been gathering In our na
tional sky.
"The consumption of liquors In this
peiiod, measuied by callons, has ln
ci eased mole than twice as fast as the
population, and partly as a tonse
iltienco dlvniees and murders have in
creased in like pioportloii. Throe oth
er clouds hnnR together, peculiar to
our own national sky and to this part
of our history namely, the Increare
of lynchltiEs, labor riots nrd municipal
con tuition (all of which aio laicer
evils In out countrv- than In nnv other).
Tlnee other clouds a-e no less tin eat
enirg; namely tin incicahe of Sab
bath bufklng, 'tpparent to nil; of ini
purit.. declared by a lecent conven
tion of phsicluns; and of conupt
journalism, that pioclalms ltselt The
tenth cloud, Migor than all and paitlv
inclusive of all is the national habit of
law In caking It would hardly be too
rru'cli to call the lncieaslng inteiest
in buital spoitH anothei cloud
"How to esc'apo the disaster htoims
these clouds .thietten should be the
theme both of Thanksgiving sermon
and piesident's message, foi It Is teai
ly the chief problem in both church
and stnte "
The remedy suggested by Dr Ciafts
was that which he is aimlnir to set in
motion In tills cltv, a combination of
the forces of tl e vai lous good civic
and religious oiganlzatlons with the
clergy
Last evening Dr. Crafts spoke on
"The Imperilled falibatb" to a large
andlenc in the Washburn Street Pres
