nished by the fusion deal entered Into
by the county Drynnltes and anti-Quay
Republicans to defeut the Republican
legislative candidates. To dicker with
the enemy In such nn Important cam
paign as the present one Is something
but few ltepubllcans In this place
would do, and inuny of the most earn
est Intlepcndent Republicans condemn
and will repudiate at the polls the
action taken by u few of their col
leagues. It the fusion movement
makes no more headway In other
parts of the county than It Is making
at the county scat, then 11 Is doomed

METHODIST CONVENTION
Interesting Sessions Held at Har-
risburg Brilliant Sermon by
Bishop Foss.
Special lo the Scianlon Tilltene.
Harrisburg, Oct. 23. Grace church,
where the Pennsylvania state conven
tion of the Methodist Episcopal church
Is being 1ield, has a history of its own.
It Is the edifice occupied by the state
legislature after the burning of the
capltol and during the time interven
ing before the erection of the new state
buildings. Last year It was renovated
and "purified," and finally re-dedicated
to the worship of God. It is a very
handsome edifice of grey stone, while
within the tones of green, with the rich
walnut paneling, make a beautiful in
terior. A gothlc screen in the rear of
the pulpit is surmounted by a colossal
painting by the well-known artist
Crouse, of New York, representing the
Adoration of the Shepherds.
There was a long row of black-coated
personages on the platform at the first
session, but towering above them all,
even Bishop Fnss, with his patriarchal
beard, was Governor Stone, looking not
In the least unlike the ministerial
brethren, In his long frock coat.
Rev. Dr. J. W. Hill, pastor of Grace
church, made a fine address of wel
come. Tho speech of Rev. Dr. E. II. Yocum,
presiding elder of the Harrisburg dis
trict, was especially enjoyed.
Dr. L. L. Sprngue, of Wyoming semi
nary, made one of the groat addresses
of the evening, and In referring to n
former welcome In 1862, when Leo's
army threatened the North and when
Harrisburg welcomed the state mllltla
called out by Governor Curtln, drew a
strong parallel between the danger of
today In the vitals of society. The cir
cumstances in tho nineteenth century
warrants the coming togother of tho
representatives of Methodists In the
great state of Pennsylvania.
Ex-Governor Pottison was the only
speaker who received applause on his
nppearance on tho platform, but then
ho Is a Methodist, and it helped him to
manv votes in this Republican state.
He Is just as big and good-looking ns
over, but his hair Is, nlas! growing
thin on the top. Ho recalled tho fact
that tho last state convention of
Methodists was thirty years ago, and
his father was Its secretary.
Dr. Austin Grlllln, Dr. W. G. Simp
son, of Asbury church, and Dr. Sprague
wcie present Monday night.
Tho devotional exercises at tho sec
ond sebslon of tho Methodist conven
tion opened with devotional exorcises,

ot Wllllamsport. Bishop Foss preached
a brilliant sermon. fuMof encourage
ment. Tho text was from Esther, 4; 10,
"Who knoweth whether thou art como
to tho kingdom for such a time as
this?" Tho sermon was a comprehen
sive review of Christianity, Its history
and Its possibilities from nn optimistic
standpoint.
At the end of tho first century (here
weie five millions of Christians, At tho
end of the tenth century, fifty millions;
ut the end of tho ilfteenth, 100 millions;
ut the end of tho eighteenth, 200 mill
ions; at tho. end of the nineteenth,
there are 500 millions, Tho members
wero more than doubled 4ln this cen
tury, One-third of tli woild's populntlou

To show the progress of wealth, Franco
has forty billions of dollars; Great
Britain and Ireland, forty-five billions;
United States, sixty billions. Tho two

The Greek chuich countries show
thirty billions; tho Roman Catholic,
ninety billions; tho Protestant, 150 bill

JONAS LONG'S SONS,
The Pure Food Show Is Crowding the Store
Marvelous exhibition this is. Have you any idea of its scope and extent ? Can' you
realize what an undertaking it is to bring together under one roof such a
massive collection of good things to eat ? People praise it loudly,
to be sure. How could they do otherwise? ' It is the big
gest event of its kind ever held in these parts
that's quite enough to assure you and us
that Scranton is ahead in everything.

twice over the twenty millions asked
for the twentieth century fund. In 1800,
seven per cent, of the population of
the United States were Christians; In
lSfjO, there were fifty per cent.; In 1890,
twenty-two nnd one-half.
That there has been fear, because of
the apathy In Methodism, Is acknowl
edged, but the bugle cry hus aroused
the churches, and It Is probaible that
this year will count Gr,000 gain In
membership.
While there are six millions of
Methodists, three and one-fourth mill
ions of Buptists, forty-nine millions ot
Protestants, there are but 67,700 Uni
tarians and 19,194 Universalists.
In speaking of the perils which
threaten the church, the bishop men
tioned the wrong relations between
capital nnd labor, the anarchistic
utterances, excitement ot (the aspera
tlons of workingmen, theigradual dese
cration of the Sabbath, the encroach
ment of the liquor power, the under
mining of the reverence for the Bible,
the influence of so-palled higher criti
cism, the substitution for the very
Book of God of tho lesson leaf In Sun
day school, the deterioration of the
spiritual power of the church, uncon
verted church members, rose-water
evangelists who do not awaken the
consciences of the sinners, political
corruption, the methods of political
bosses, the secularization of the min
istry and the church.
In conclusion, he spoke of the great
possibilities before the church, and
commenting upon the present labor
difficulties, said that readjustment must
come when duty, rather than right, Is
considered, and when high and low,
rich and poor, realize that ench Is his
brother's keeper.
