At n meeting of the society held In St.

with any self-respect: and
Whereas, We, the members of tho Holy
Numo society, deim It our duty to do
all In our power to suppress such vice

the suppression of this evil by every
means In their power. We also request
the business men of this city not to lend

public morals by displaying the pictures
of those attractions lu their windows;
and, bo It further

CALL ISSUED BY
METHODIST BISHOPS
OPINION OF LOCAL CLERGYMEN
WITH REFERENCE TO IT.
While Church May Not Se Making
the Progress is Membership It Has
in the Past It May Be an Indica
tion That It Is Stronger .and Is
Merely Removing from Its Rolls
tho Names of Persons Who Are
Spiritually if Not Physically
Dead What Clergymen Say.
Tho bishops call to the Methodists
of America regarding a season at fast
ing nnd prayer, beginning Mnrch 25,
Is attracting widespread attention.
The impassioned appeal for more con
secration and more aggressive work
on tho part of the church Is recognized
in Its-elegance of diction and eloquent
climax as emanating from the brain
and pen of Bishop C. H. Fowler.
At Plymouth on Monday and Tues
day an Interesting meeting of the Min
isterial association was held, when this
subject occupied much of tho time. A
resolution was Introduced which by
its adoption obligates the pastors of
the district to the reading of the
bishops' address and the observance
of the same according to Its direction.
The Tribune has endeavored to gain
a concensus of opinion regarding the
warning made in this, appeal and the
existing conditions of the churches In
this vicinity. Among some of the re
plies received is the following from
Rev. Austin Griffin, D. D., presiding
elder of the Wyoming district:
CAUSE OK THE DECREASE.
Rev. Dr. Ullrtn said that he should
announce the reading of the bishops'
address and should recommend its
close observance. Ho was of tho opin
ion that the general public Is mis
lead by tho statement as to the fall
ing oft In numbers. The fact Is that
only In the past two years has an en
forcement of the discipline regarding
registration of church membership
been required. The old custom was
to keep all names on tho church rec
ord whether the owners could bo found
or not. It Is now required that all
those who have removed or who from
other causes cannot bo found for one
year shall not be numbered on tho
church record. Tho names are still
there, so that at any time letters of
dismissal or recommendation can be
given, but they ure riot actually count
ed In the membership.
In this way alone 150 names have
been dropped from the records of Elm
Park church In the past two years of
Dr. Glilln's pastorate. Thus It can
readily bo seen what a tremendous
list will be taken from the roll of the
church In America. It Is this change
In the rules that causes the seeming
retrogression, numerically speaking.
Tho fact Is that the former regulations
gave a fictitious representation. It is
estimated that 16 per cent, of the
membership of the Methodist church
was effective and real, but that under
tho new regulations the live growth
of the church will soon be noted. When
2,000 probationers are reported In the
Wyoming district during the past year,
with not all the returns In, the acces
sion of members may bo more correct
ly estimated. The seeming decrease
has not been confined to the Metho
dist church, but affects all except the
Roman Catholic and the Lutheran,
which receive their great reinforce
ments from Immigration.
Dr. Glflln believed that a favorable
reaction Is taking place, not only In
finance, but In religion in this coun
try. Thu llnanciul depression did ef
fect tho church, but reports of large
revivals are constatitly being jnade
and it Is evident that unprecedented
growth Is about to be recorded.
DR. GRIFFIN'8 VIEWP.
We aro a groat church. In point of
numbers, wealth, culture and influence
we are second to no other Protestant
church. Our responsibilities are corre
spondingly great. God and the world
expects great things from such a peo
ple. Our declated mission Is "to spread
Scriptural holiness over all lands." Our
bishops have the entire world parish
under survey. They discover that for
the past live years at least we have not
held up to our former record as an
nggrcssive r-vangellzlng force, especial
ly in tho homo field. Methodism must
be "Christianity in earnest," or strike
her flag and retire from tho conflict.
Wo are not ready to abdicate our
throne. We have some power, a little
wealth, and we live. Our lines of com
munication aro open and direct to Pen
tecost and the sources of "all power."
Hence the episcopal call. Their show
in;; is for the year ending October, 180S.
Tho record of the current year will
make n vejy different showing. Re
vivals aro thj order In our churches
across tho continent. Our own district
(Wyoming) will report more than 2.000
conversions this conference year. The
best iccord by far wo have made In a
decade. Tho episcopal call is the har
binger of victory all along the line.
The church will stride Into the new
century with tho swing ot mighty con
quest. Already
"We see the triumph from afar,
By faith wo bring It nigh."
CHURCH IS GROWING.
Rev. J. B. Sweet, secretary of tho
Wyoming conference, and pastor of
Simpson church, of West Scranton, Is
in a position to know more about the
progress of the church In this region
than almost any other man. In the
eoujso of an interview yesterday Dr.
Sweet said:
The call to humiliation, fasting and
pinyer by tho bishops of our church

MEARS & HAGEN,
An Important Test.
Your llf Naj Be.FrolMged hy
Applying It.
Do you realize the Importance of the
Kidneys and Bladder? When diseased
they make a lot of trouble tear down
the system and create gravel (stone In
the Bladder). Women often suffer from
so-called "female weakness," when
their trouble really lies with the Kid
neys and Bladder. Try this test. Put
some urine In a tumbler. Let it stand
twenty-four hours. If there Is a sedi
ment, a cloudy or milky appearance,
your Kidneys are sick. If you are
obliged to urinate often, especially dur
ing the night: If your urine stains
linen, If you have scalding pains In
passing It, If your back pains you. your
Bladder and Kidneys aro diseased; you
should at once take the greatest of all
Kidney medicines, Dr. David Ken
nedy's Favorite Remedy. It has cured
the most distressing cases; It wilt cure
you.
It corrects the bad effects of beer or
whiskey, will cure old and chronic
cases of Rheumatism and Dyspepsia
and acts gently yet promptly on the
Bowels. Favorite Remcdv Is sold for
one dollar a bottle at all drug stores.
You may have a trial bottle of Favor
ite Remedy with a pamphlet of valu

the Dr. David Kennedy Corporation,
Bondout, N. Y., and mentioning this
paper. The proprietors of this paper
guarantee the genuineness of this lib
eral offer.
appear to Indicate a positive retrograde
movement on the part of the great
Methodist Episcopal church In the year
of the past to necessitate said call. It
may be true that the church at large
has decreased numerically, but the rea
son.or reasons, may not lie In decreased
spirituality, or vitiated power, but
rather in the more carefully revised
church records and better Bystem of
church bookkeeping.
Locally the allocution Is not applic
able. In Wyoming district alone dur
ing the present conference year over
2,000 souls have been converted, whlla
In this city Methodism has taken no
footsteps backwards. Each of our eight
churches and missions have had acces
sions to their membership, the total of
which must be in the hundreds. We
shall observe the call of the bishops, If
not for our own good, why surely for
tho good of others.
ONE OF THE REASON.
Rev. William Edgar, whose pastor
ate of the Providence Methodist Epis
copal church Is jit3t closing, says as
follows:
There Is no doubt some Justification
for the recent declaration of our
bishops. Every Christian worker Is
forced to ndmlt there is much of world-
ilncss manifested by some professing
Christians. This cannot fail to affect
the membership of the church. Those
who are without the fold, when they
look at this class of professing Chris
tians, see no necessity or advantage In
church membership.
I do not Intimate all Christians are
of this character. We have thousands'
of earnest, spiritual souls, thoroughly
consecrated to Jesus Christ. Still, the
others referred to exert a great influ
ence. There Is wisdom in the call of
the bishops for humiliation, prayer and
consecration. I do not think this spir
itual condition Is peculiar to any one
denomination alone. The mere fact of
increasing numerically does not prove
a church Is actually stronger in the
true sense. This could be abundantly
proved by quotations from the New
Testament. Concerning my own church,
I will make a complete and exact re
port before the conference. I have re
ceived on probation about ninety since
I came to Providence church, and at
Carbondale over 150.
HE IS NOT ALARMED.
Rev. W. O. Simpson, pastor of As
bury church, at Green Ridge, writes:
The bishops' call for a week of ab
stinence and prayer need not occasion
undue alarm to Methodists.
First That there Is a decrease in our
numerical strength is evidently true, a
decrease In the full membership, and
also in the probationers' list, still this
may be u healthful sign. It is possible
to carry an amount of dead stock on
the register of a Methodist church.
Second A goodly number of Metho
dist preachers are firm believers In,
and ardent supporters of, the doctrine
of expansion In other words. Inflation.
Others there are who believe the op
posite: evidently some of the latter,
according to soul and conscience, have
been, though not departing from the
creed of true expansion, trimming or
pruning the church records. See?
Third Figures tell wondrous truths
of times: It Is possible to securo as
much In actual spiritual and temporal
results ftom 300 members, In a given
year, than from double that number In
the previous year.
Fourth Progress In a Methodist
church Is not always told In figures.
Such Is the case at Asbury, I believe.
Fifth I am not at all alarmed by the
"Awake! awake!!" of the bishops. Tho
special service will greatly bless the
entire church, and should! add thou
sands to the fold.

GRAND DISPLAY
SUDDEN DEATH OF
JOSEPH H, STEELL
IT WAS DUE TO NEURALGIA 0.?
THE HEART.
Not Until About 10 O'clock Last
Night Was His Condition Thought
to Be Serious Mr. Steell Was
Born In St. Clair, Schuylkill Coun
ny, but Was Engaged In Business
Here for the Last Twenty-Eight
Years Enterprises He Was Identi
fied With.
Joseph' Henry Bteell, ono of Scran
ton's most prominent business men,
died at 11.30 o'clock last night of
neuralgia of the heart at the family
home, 829 Linden street, corner of Mon
roe avenue.
His death was wholly unexpected.
Yesterday was spent at his office as
usual, and not until some time after
returning home for the evening did he
complain of any Illness, A slight pain
in the region of the heart caused him
some uneasiness, but he retired with
out giving the family any cause to
believe he was seriously 111. About 10
o'clock the attack Increased in inten
sity and the family was summoned.
Dr. A. J. Connell was sent for and
labored to relieve him, but It was una
vailing. By the death of Mr. Steell Scranton
loses one of the men who contributed
in no small measure to Its upbuilding.
He was born In St. Clair, Schuylkill
county, Dec. 2, 1847, and twenty-eight
years ago came to Scranton to en
gage In mercantile pursuits. He was
a member of the firm of Beadle &
Steell, which conducted a large gro
cery store on Lackawanna avenue,
where the Grand Central hotel Is now
located, and which later moved to
Pcnn avenue, corner of Centre street,
where it continued till a few years
ago, when It resolved Itself In the gen
eral store firm of J. H. Steel & Com
pany, with offices In the Traders' bank
building.
He was manager of the Lackawanna
Store company, president ot tho Alle
gheny Lumber company, ono of the
organizers of' the Lackawanna Lum
ber company and a director of the
Traders' bank, besides being Interested
In a number of other business con
cerns. His wife and four daughters survive
him. The daughters are Nellie, Leila,
Katherlnc and Ruth.
A DASH FOR LIBERTY.
Made by an Old Prisoner In Charge
of Detective Clifford.
Thursday evening Hugh Wall, of
Howard place, was arraigned before
Alderman Howe, charged with abuse
and neglect of his family. He was
found guilty and In default of ball
committed to the county jail. Detec
tive W. F. Clifford was given charge
of him -and had his own troubles In
getting him to the prison, because
while on the way the prisoner sud
denly made a wild dash for liberty
and was only recaptured after a hard
chase.
The odd part of It lies In the fact
that Wall Is old and feeble. "The
weight of centuries," or rather of a
considerable part of a century, weighs
on his back and his eyes no longer
possess the lustre of youth.
The detective. In fact, took compas
sion on his old age, and neglected to
keep as strict a watch as he otherwise
would have done. When he and his
prisoner left the office the old man
limped painfully and complained of
being unable to walk.
At the corner of Washington avenue
Clifford met a friend and stopped for
a chat. The prisoner hobbled slowly
on without him and when the sleuth
of Alderman Howe's office rejoined
him they continued their peaceful
walk.
When they reached the corner of
Vine street and Washington avenue
the prisoner suddenly straightened up
and started down the hill like an an
cient stag. The movement so astound
ed his guard that his first Impulse was
to break into a roar of laughter, which
he did. His next move was to dash
after his prisoner and then to take
htm to the county jail.
CAR AGAIN LEFT THE TRACK.
Derailed at Exactly the Same Point
as on Wednesday Night.
Car No. 201 of the Scranton Railway
company, which jumped tho track at
the sulphur brook bridge, neur Peek
vllle, on Wednesday night, an account
of which appeared In yesterday's edi
tion, has again been up to Us tricks.
Yesterday morning tho same car, Pcck
vlllo bound, mounted the rails at ex
actly tho same point, and bounding
along the ties the same as befoi-o,
plunged through tho opening of the
fence torn down by tho same car on
Wednesday night, and when It came
to a standstill It was nt right nngles
with the track and In a field, In the
same position ob on Wednesday night.
Had rails been laid for tho car to
run on It could not have followed Its
course of Wednesday night any bettor.
None of tho passengers received ser
ious Injury, although they were badly
shaken up and frightened.
For over three hours traffic was it
