With a cash account of over $1,000 to his credit two or three years ago, Pat rick Loughney today Is penniless, homeless, and dangerously 111. He was picked up on Penn avenue at 6 o'clock Saturday evening by a friend, who found him stretched along the side walk at the Dickson works. He was brought to Fcldman's hotel, at the cor ner of Penn avenue and Mulberry street, and the kind friend paid a weeks board for him. Yesterday his condition wns so bad that Itev. .1. J. P. Peeley was sent for, and Loughney was given the last sac raments to prepare him for death. Tho heat was what affected him and brought on his Illness. He was travel ing around the streets for a week with but a crust to cat: though there are many persons In the city who would help him along If they knew his plight. The friend who picked him up Satur day concealed his Identity. He has known Loughney many years, and was surprised to see him so destitute. It was supposed that he was pos sessed of a large sum of money, sullle lentlv large to keep the wolf from the door and to provide against a rainy lay. The explanation he gave was that he went down to New Jersey expect ing to spend the remainder of his life among relatives, but his money gradu ally slipped away from him, until It was all cone. jc left there then and came back to Scranton. He worked as a laborer around the shops for thirty years, and was of a saving disposition. His home was for a time on the South Side and later In Pine ISrook. He is about 6j years old.

D. 1. JUNIIS IN TA11RHNACLL' CHUHCH. WDST SCKANTON. Hlshop Nicholson was nt Grace lie formed Kplscopal church yesterday nnd delivered nn Interesting sermon, whose topic was nn obscure passage in 1 Cor.. 15:23; "Klse whnt shall they do which nre baptized from the dead If the deail rise not nt all? Why then are they baptized for tho dead?" After remarking that these words had been the subject of general query nnd discussion, the reverend speaker declnred that the text embod'ed the apostle's decisive nnd weighty contri bution to the arguments for the resur rection nnd designating the baptism for tho dead nn absurdity and not a scriptural teaching. It showed the logical alternative of tho supposition that there could be no resurrection of the dead. As there was no such thing in the universe ns baptism of the dead the apostle uses It to fence against the supposition that no rising from the dead could tnke place. An explanation of the supposed bap tism for the dead followed. It might be the not of tho living on behalf or one who had died without being bap tized a vicarious baptism. The rite wns administered by Insignificant heretical sects subsequent to the apos tolic (1ge and grounded on the words of the text, but It did not exist In Paul's time. St. Chrysostom describes It where a man wns put under the bed of the dead. The corpse was asked If It would bo baptized. The man under the bed answered "yes" and him they baptized. Could ranker superstition exist? HAS NO I'LACF. IN IllMLH. The doctrine that the administration of the rite Is Indispensable to salva tion and that man Is lost unless he has been baptized has no place In the Hlble. It could not affect the condition of the dead and there was no reality In such a baptism, and It was lldlculed by Chrysostom. There was another construction to bo placed on this passage: the baptism of new conveits to fill the vacancies caused by martyrdom. As fast as Christians were cut down by the sword, or extinguished by fire, others by faith stood In their footprints like volunteers rushing Into the plnces of the slain in an army. Hut why should any become Christians ami brave such suffeilng If there bo no resurrection of the dead? The apostle says In the words following the text: "Why stand we in Jeopardy all our lives." It can not thus- be explained, although this Is usual throughout the church. Tills construction Is a heavy strain on the translation of the Greek, where Is meant "In behalf of the dead" "bene fit ting the dead" not filling a vacancy. Tlie explanation was sometimes made that the words referred to Christ, who lied for the world's sins, but this can not hold ns in the Greek the reference to the dead Is plural, thereforo not to be applied to one. The bungling English In our version of the Hlble was then noted. Willie the Kngllsh words In purity, simplic ity and rhythm are unequalled, mis takes have occuried. "Klse" as rend ered hoio nrmliife taiitnln-v 1 lfrt- aly It makes the passage read: "If the dead rise not at all, what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, If the dead rise not at all?" It Is a slip made by the translators, raiely Indeed, but here evident. In the revised ver sion the Interrogation mark Is moved backvv at d. CHANGE IS JUSTIFIED. "Kite what shall they do which are baptised for the dead?" thus relieving the tautology, bettering the English, but r.ot relieving the dlfllcully or the phrase. Moving the mark still farther Rives us "What shall they do which are baptized?' which is better still. Are we Justified in the change of punc tuation? Yes. Punctuation had no part in the Greek. The inspired writers did not punctuate. In the ancient Greek nnd Roman manu scripts there no marks at all separate the- words. Scholars and editors have done the punctuation nnd interpretation thctefore does not cspr daily depend on the marks. It Is said that they form no part of the modern arts of the Htit ish Parliament anil that such must be the language that no ambiguous phraces appar. Lord lirouglmm once ordered an alteration in the oider of wrds as othenviso the wrong borough would have been disenfranchised. Tertrlllian In the First centurv. Chrysostom in the Second, Theodorle In tl.o rifth and Theophllne in iho Sev i nth indicate that the next must havo liren divided In this way and again It is In tho line of the npostle's thought. Tho sentiment of the Greek mind was to deny resurrection in general, although Christ's resuncction was held. This was perilous. Paul said: "If thero bo no resurrec tion of the dead, then is Christ not risen. If Christ lie not risen, then la your faith vuin. Ye are yet In your si us." EFFORT IS DISCOURAGED. All Christian effort Is thus discour aged. There Is nothing for tho future but dead bodies nnd sinful souls, with the conditions forever of blackness nnd boirow of future wretchedness. Christ risen is our strength, song and salvation His death was our redemp tion. Ills resurrection Is the certificate. His death was the payment for our debt. His resurrection is the payment receipted. God s no longer hidden be hind the Impenetrable veil of nature, hut has stepped Into view as the great supernatural force. In Christ risen wo are not as orphans, but through and above and over all Is our Father In His risen llfo Is tho spirit of vie tory when the weakest saint becomes a hero. In Christ's ilsen I'fo Is the be ginning of a new creation. We begin on earth the perfection in the skies, Surinon ol Rev. l. P. Jones in Taber nacle Concregiitionnl Church, West Sciaiiton.

William Wcatherhogg, "2 years old ot Hampton street, West Side, was diowned Satuiday afternoon in the new dam of the Lackawanna lion nnd Steel company, above the old mill, on the Roaiing Rrook. He and three other young men were bathing, and he dived into water much beyond his depth. Be ing unable to swim, he sank, came to the surface and struggled nnd splashed, and sank again to his death. None of his companions: could swim well enough to lend him any assistance. The dam had to be emptied to re cover his hod, and at '0 o'clock Satur day night Undertaker Tague removed It to the homo of the parents. Weath erhoRg was employed at the Rellevtte colliery, and It was customary for many young men emplood at the same place to go after working hours or on Idle days tc. the dam to bathe. Those who couldn't swim selected the upper end where the water is shallow. Wcatheiliogg was with them, but he waded to a. stump that puts from the water, and dived from it. In hi? ef foits to swim out. he struggled into a depth of ten feet. At first, as he had said he could svvitn, his companions thought ho was playing off and that he was fully callable of taking care of him self. The truth of the matter did not dawn upon them until the young man went down to rise no more. The new dam is a favorite bathing resort for hoys nnd young men; and all along the brook from the blast fur nace to the tunnel bathing spots are frequented. Coroner Longstreet viewed the remains and decided that an in quest was not necessary. TO DISCOURAGE BLASPHEMING.
