Rev. Frank J. Milman, M. A., who Is
supplying thr pulpit of the Sumner
Avenue Prcxbytcrlan church, pi cached
a sermon last evening to tho members
of Panooka tribe, Improved Order of
Red Men, who attended the services In
a body. Tho speaker's theme was "Pa
tient Perseverance," and the twet was
taken from Job, 17:9, "The righteous
alto shall hold on his way." During
the course of his remarks, Rev. Mil
man spoke, In part, as follows:
Lot me apply this motto ot "Holding
on" to your efforts to do good to your
fellow men, AVIieti you worn children,
most of you at least, cainu from Christian
homes. Your parents wcro engaged In
good worKs, social, philanthropic and ie
llglous. If you tire worthy to Uiom p.i
Tints, jou, too, will seek botno corner in
fhrlst'h vineyard where you may gather
In the grapes. You will ho ashamed to
pas through life and leave the wot Id no
Vetter for having been In 't. To. what
ever good you put your hand, whether It
be In the lodge room, on tho sick com
mittee, or In temperance work, xoci'il
purity reform, tho better housing of the
poor, the elevation of the lower classes,
tho noble attempt to make the tolling
classes and mnst.es of society havo some
thing better than tho poor farms to look
forward to In time of distress and at tho
close of life's activity, whatever gooil
work your order undertakes, pcrscvcic,
stick to It, "Hold on."
Christian men are slowly awakening
out of tho 'sleep of the centuries. Plain
men are weary of the clothiM ol religion
and are sighing for the blessed reality.
The reality does not consist In theolog
ical hair-splitting. No; religion U a rcal
' Ity. not simply talk
"And simple faith can find the way
We mis') with chart ot creed."
Religion Is to do justice, be honorable,
old the poor, contolo the sorrowing, com
fort the dying, love mercy, and walk
humbly with votir Ood. We are begin
ning to realize that e-hrlsllanlty is for
man, that a religion which does not ele
vate man hro on cnrtli. nnel cause jus
tice to abound, may talk to tho elay of
eloom of the solemn hereafter, biu it will
utterly fall to hold tho masses. Human
life, of course, is a pilgrimage through
this earth to our f.ithcrlind. But thero
Is no reason why the pilgrimage should
be made harder than necessary by baJ
laws and wicked social customs.
Men must, as the saving gens, "trudge
pnrth' pilgrinvige with peas In their
shoes." Hut, brother, it Is your duty to
boll the peas for your brother man, and
thus make the pilgrimage liis painful.
Somo of vou are vorl'lng thus tor ilod
because ou are working thus for man.

Art in Millinery
Fine materials do not necessarily
make fine Millinery. Women of taste,
refinement and good judgment fully real
ize that fact, but as the only way its truth
can be demonstrated is through an appeal
to the eye and reason,
We invite the ladies of North
eastern Pennsylvania to attend
our opening display of artistic
Spring Millinery on Wednesday
and Thursday, April 4 and 5,
When the choicest productions of home
and foreign artists in ladies headgear will
await their inspection. Extreme novel
ties that are a little odd will be found
along side the more conservative ideas
tiifluappeal to women who never want
to b'erconspicuously dressed.
to Addition to
Trimmed Millinery
'.. We will show a most complete as
teortment of everything requisite for mak
Jng millinery to order, or for the home
"milliners' use. Nothing that fashion de

DEATH OF REV. DR. PECK.
Was One of the Oldest Ministers In
This Part of State His Family
Famous in Methodism.
Rev. Luther W. Peck, D. D., died at
his home on Chestnut street Saturday
last at 4 p. m. He was around, hale
and hearty last week, but on Monday
last ho contracted a severe cold, wntch
later developed Into pneumonia, and to
which he finally succumbed. He was
74 years of age.
Dr. Peck was justly proud of his an
cestry. He traced his lineage on his
father's side In unbroken succession
In America and England for thirty gen
erations back. His original ancestor In
this country was Henry Peck, one of
the original signers of the articles
founding the New Haven colony, who
came to America In 1678. Dr. Peck
was of the ninth generation from, him.
On his mother's side he was descend
ed from the Myers and Bennett fami
lies, many of whom are living in the
Wyoming Valley at the present time.
Thomas Bennett, an olei Indian tighter
and one of the forty settlers who built
tho stockade at Fortv Fort, was one
of his maternal ancestors, and Jesse
Peck, who, together with two ot his
sons, gave their lives for their country
In the Revolutionary war, was his pa
ternal grandfather.
Dr. Peck was born In Kingston, Lu
zerne county. Pennsylvania, on the
fourteenth day of June, 182r, and was
the socond son of tho late Rev. Dr.
George Peck and Mary Myers. His
boyhood was spent In the Wyoming
Valley, where. In listening to the stur
ely preaching and kindly advice of his
Illustrious father, he Imbibed those
prlnclplps of piety, eloquence and char
acter which so distinguished him In his
later years. To that marvelous val
ley, so renowned In history and legend,
so beautiful In Its wealth of scenery,
so rich In Its mineral wealth. In the
later years of his life, when the sha
dows of evening were beginning to
gather over his head, his thoughts
turned, and led him to write his poem,
"The Humming Bird." a writing that
hns elicited favorable comment from
many critics.
When quite young In years. Dr. Peck
was placed In charge of his uncle,
Bishop Jesse T. Peek, who was then
the principal of the Methodist semin
ary at Poultney, Vermont, to he edu
cated. He spent several years there
and laid the foundation for the edu
cation which he subsequently obtained.
As the ago of fifteen he entered Wes
leyan university at Mlddletown, Conn.,
as a frpshman In the class of 1845, with
fJeorgn I. Seney, A. Oakey Hall, John
W. Beach nnd many other men who
afterwards became famous as authors,
politicians and philanthropists. Ho re
mained In Wesleyan but one year,
when his father was called to the edi
torship of the Christian Advocate, In
New York city, and his son, In order
that he might be at home, left Wes
leyan and entered New York univer
sity ,as a sophomore In the class of '45,
under the famous educator, Chancellor
Theodore Frellnghuysen, He led his
class during the time he was a student
and graduated as the valedictorian
when but nineteen years of age.
Immediately subsequent to his grad
uation he entered the Methodist min
istry, Joining the New York conference
in 1845, there to devote his life to the
service of the Great Master. In this
he followed the example of his father
and the latter's four brothers, who,
with Rev, Oeorge M. Peck, his own
brother, were all Methodist ministers.
On January 18, 1848, Dr. Peck mar
ried Sarah M. Gibbons, tho daughter
of a noted Albany physician, Dr. Ran
som H. Gibbons, who still survives
him. During the first twenty-threo
years of his ministry he was a mem
ber of tho New York conference and
occupied many pulpits of prominence,
Including -ew York city, Brooklyn,
Poughkeepsle, Newburgh and others.
In 1868 he was transferred to the Wyo
ming conference and was stationed at
tho Simpson Methodist Episcopal
church, West Scranton, whero he held
his membership at the time of his
death. His appointments In this con
ference were many, and included
Wilkes-B.irre, Plttston, presiding elder
ot the Honesdale district and durtni?
his later life less arduous appoint
ments. For forty-six years he was In
tho active ministry and during tho last
ten years he has hel a supernumarv
relation. Dr. Peck was tho last of his
generation famous as a race of preach
ers, and In his death tho Wyoming
conference loses Its oldest member.
The funeral will be held nt hjs late
residence, No. 302 Chestnut street, on
Tuesday aftfrnoon at 1 o'clock. Inter
ment will be In the Forty Fort ceme
tery and will be private, the funeral
party taking the 3,40 Delaware, Lack
awanna and Western train.
The pall-bearers will be his four
nephews, Judge William H. Crane, of
Port Jervls; William H. Peck nnd Lu
ther W. Peck, of this city, und George
Peck, of Forty Fort.
