OPENING OF THE
NEW SUB-STATION
IT IS IN CHARGE OF JOHN
2IENRY PHILLIPS.
There Are Six Carriers nt tho Sta

trlbuted Tho Station Is Located
on Jackson Street, Closo to Main
Avenue, and Is Very Central.
Fight Mode by Board of Trade for
Station.
After six years, lacking one month, of
Incessant labors, the West Scranton
hoard of trade, assisted by Hon. Will
iam Connell, congressman from this
district, have secured tho location of
a branch postofllce in West Scrunton.
Tho new olllce was opened yesterday
morning nnd Is located on Jackson
street, just above Main avenue. No
ceremonies were conducted In conjunc
tion with tho opening of tho olllce. Tho
general delivery window was open from
9 until 10 o'clock. The carriers will
make their first delivery this morning.
John Henry Phillips is superintend
ent of tho station. AVilliam Gibbons,
one of tho clerks In tho central city
olllce, Is his assistant. Six carriers
have been transferred to the new sta-

Station. tlon. They are Walter McNIchols,
Thomas Jones, William Cannon, W. D.
Morgan and Thomas Williams. A
slight change will bo made In several
of tho routes, giving the residents a
much better service.
Tho building In which the new sta
tion is situated has been completely
renovated. Tho woodwork has received
a new coat of paint and tho walls re
papered. Regular postal racks and
other necessary supplies have been
placed In position. In the front are a
large number of private boxes, which,
It is expected, will bo rented by tho
business men. There are also two win
dows, one general delivery, the other
for money orders. A desk has been
erected for tho use of the public, In
case they should desire to direct a
postal or 1111 out a money order. On
tho right side of tho building, In
Wymbs' place. Is nn entrance for the
carriers. On the front windows are tho
words, "Sub-Station, No. 1."
The members of the board of trade
are elated over the establishment of an
ofTIco on this side, and are also very
thankful to Mr. Connell for his hearty
co-operation In their behalf. The fight
for the location of an olllce In West
Scranton started nearly six years ago,
during tho administration of President
Cleveland. Attorney C. K. Daniels,
now president of the board, then Its
secretary, at a meeting held In August
of 1S94, introduced a petition praying
for tlio establishment of an olllce In
West Scranton. The name of every
member of the board was affixed to
the paper, and It was dispatched to
Postmaster General Ulssel. It Is sup
posed that the petition found Its way
to the waste basket, as nothing was
ever heard from it. This, however, did
not discourage Mr. Daniels or the other
members of the board.
CROWNKD WITH SUCCESS.
About one year ago, Mr. Daniels,
having b?en elected president of tho
board, again agitated the Idea, which
at last became a reality. President
Daniels appointed Fellows Mason, D.
D. Evans and Jenkln Reese a commit
tee on the establishment of a sub-station
In West Scranton. The commit
tee at once started to work and drew
up a petition, sending one to Post
master General Charles Emory Smith
and the other to Congressman Connell.
They received n reply from the post
ofllce department to the effect that
they would give tho matter their at
tention. In January of tho present
year, Inspector Gorman met a delega
tion of the business men of this side
at the club house of the Electric City
Wheelm4. and there talked the matter
over. At the conclusion of the meet
ing, Mr. Gorman assured them that ho
would report favorably the plans.
A short time afterwards, through tho
untiring efforts of Mr. Connell, word
was received from Washington, D. C,
that a sub-station would be erected.
Rids were sent In for tho location of a
site and the building of Mrs. Jones
selected. The residents of West Scran
ton are happy over its establishment,
knowing that It means a better ser
vice. TO CONDUCT EXAMINATIONS.

THE SUPPORTING POWER.
Topic of Rev. O. R. Beardsley's Ser
mon in the All Souls' Universa
11st Church Last Night.
Rev. O. R. Rcardnley, of the All
Souls' Universallst church, last night
chose as his theme, "Tho Supporting
Power," nnd gave a thoughtful sermon
upon tho subject. Ho first declared
that while theory may bo of some
avail, still it is not of the same value
as faith.
"Abraham's covenant with the Lord,"
said he, "with the results of great
bene.nt to all of his descendants, was
not a promise made by the Lord, but
was merely tho fruit of the righteous
ness of faith. Faith without works,
however, is of no avail. Abraham's
laith centered In the welfare of his
fellow men. Faith Is the substance of
the things hoped for, the substance of
the things not seen. It comes from the
reading of the things of tho future
or of the things which wo have not
seen.
"Many men have faith but do not
show It. Rut It Is tho men who have
studied tho life of Jesus Christ on
earth, who try to model themselves
after his pattern, who have striven to
closely emulate him, who may bo said
to really have faith, and who dally
show the grand results of It.
"Faith is shown in works. As tho
Lord said, 'They who act well, from
no wish of favors, of such is tho king
dom of heaven. They are in error,
who seek happiness, looking forward
to it only in tho future. They should
make tho present happy and comfort
able and then they will truly enjoy
their lives. The passenger sitting In a
car with his ticket secuie in his pocket
can Ijok forward to the terminal point
of his journey with greater pleasure
than the wretched wanderer stealing
a ride on the rear platform. The far
mer with fields of growing grain, can
in a more pleasant prospective view
tho future than he whose fields Ho
fallow.
"And as regards faith In punish
ment, I may compare man to a tree.
Imagine, If a tree, which Is being
pruned, could feel tho cutting sensa
tion, and should say, 'Why do you
thts; inspire me,' you would answer
that It was for its own good, not for
the purpose of hurting it. And in the
fall when the tree lets drop its beauti
ful fruit, with which the boughs are
laden, it would thank you for having
pruned and so benefited It. In that
sense I have faith In punishment,
when all things will bear the fruits
of righteousness. ,
" o must have faith. If wo be
lieved that the men across tho ocean
were doing naught but cheating us,
snap would go the bands of commerce.
If we believed that our neighbors on
Broadway and Wall street were cheat
ing us, there would be an end to all
business Interchange. Everything de
pends" upon faith, and let us as Christ's
disciples try to live and dio' with
faith."

FAREWELL SERMON
OF REV. PR PIERCE
DELIVERED PRIOR TO HIS DE
PARTURE FOR EUROPE.
Tho Cup of Blessing Was tho Topic
That Ho Discussed Strength of
Life, Ho Said, Is Not in Our Sur
roundings, But in Character.
Learn to Put Your Soul in Har
mony with the Divine Spirit nnd
Hoavsn Will Take Care of Itself.
Roforo leaving for an extended trip
abroad, this summer, Rev. 11. F. Y.
Pierce, of tho Penn Avenue Raptlst
church of this city, preached his faro
well sermon yesterday morning before
a largo number of his parishioners. Ho
choso as his text I Cor., 10:16, with em
phasis upon tho words, "The cup of
blessing."
Ho said that strength of life was not
In our surroundings. In proficiency In
nrt, music or learning, not In positions,
wealth and power greater than that of
other men, but in character, developed
by communion with God. Character is
what wo aro In our noblest and most
spiritual moments. Even though'' we bo
a Homer or Shakespeare and have not
"tho cup of blessing," we are devoid of
the strength of life.
Then ho spoke of David's eagerness
to put himself In harmony with tho
dlvlno spirit; how Jesus taught it when
he said, "Blessed are the pure In
heart;" and how a man without this
strength may be compared to the
musician and his "lost chord" waiting
long, troubled years for that grand
"amen" which he had struck, hut lost.
Ho hero touchlngly compared the
loving mother's tender sympathy In
times of trouble to the angel of God
coming In tho night to our troubled
bedside and, laying her hand upon our
throbbing brows, comforting us by im
parting that strength which comes
from communion with God,
Although sin has robbed man of this
blessing, ho will never bo happy until
It is regained, or he can come to say
with hope, ns did the musician, "Per
haps I may find it in my eternal
homo."
"Rut this blessing wo aro all seek
ing," ho continued, "will never bo
found in this world or in tho many
learned philosophers, except through
tlio earnest longing of tho soul for
communion with God. The Bible is not
filled with heavenly blessings. No, It
tingles with joys and blessings for this
life. See what it says: Mark each
passage which Is a guide for this life
and you will find every page marked.
Learn to live now to put your soul In
rapport with the dlvlno spirit, and
heaven will take care of Itself."
No announcements have been made
as to the pulpit supply for August, but
during the month of July the various
pastors of tho city will fill the vacancy,
Rev. W. J. Ford, of Green Ridge,
preaching next Sunday.
During the pastor's absence, Deacon
W. II. Tripp will serve as president of
the board of deacons, and Dr. L. M.
Gates as moderator of the church.
