Splendid Music nt Methodist Church.
At the Methodist church the finest
music that has ever been heard In that
parted edifice was enjoyed by crowded
congregations at the servlcet of yes
terday morning and evening.
The choir, under the direction of W.
T). I'vnn, responded as never before.
Kvcry member of the choir seemed
filed with the spirit of the occasion,
wh'eh was re-echoed In the fine blend
Ir.g of the voices. The cresoendos and
mitiurndoi were truly observed and
the climaxes were pimply thrilling. The
organ work of John Kvans, pupil of the
New Ilngland Conservatory of Music,
L'osion, was splendid and there was
nilmaMble harmony between him and
the fingers. There was that dash and
spirit and finish that brought all ot the
uttepgth and beauty of the nnmheis so
happily thosen by Mr. Hvans In his
pieinratlon of the programme. Prob
ably the finest number ot the morning
was Shelly'. "King of Unve," Tho
folo, duets and trios were magnificent
ly tendered.
In the evening there was also mani
fested that same fine spirit and among
the large rongtegatlon weie heatd
numerous expressions of the warmest
rnmmendatlon.
Tho pastor. Key. A. K. Chaffee, de
livered .in appropriate sermon, during
which he pointed to the paramount ln
llt'fpce of the rhurch In the life or the
ccmmiinlty. rcvountlng, also, the Indl

At Berean Baptist Church.
The congregation that assembled nt
the Ileiean Ilaptlst church filled the
spacious auditorium, and among thine
assembled were many faces that wcte
fnmillar theie In other days, nnti al
iuot eveiv family of the church had
friends with them who hae come to
thf city for the celebtntlou.
In addition to the special nature
of the servlie, It was the opening of
the chuich after the vacation period.
Rev. Jir Whalen h-ulng only Just re
turned w-lth his family from their out
ing nt Ragles Mete, and It was also
the flist service In which Mr V A.
Roberts, of Fcrnntnn. the newly elect
ed organist and director, appeared
with the choir. All these facts went
to make the day a most significant one
to the Baptist people.
The service opened with an organ
selection, being Wagner's Pastorale,
which was finely executed by Mr Rob
eits, then followed the Invocation by
the pastor, with a response by the
choir. The responsive reading was
upon "FMvlne Remembrance," at the
close of which the rongtegatlon sang
P.ishop Heber's Immortal song, "Holy,
Holy, Holy."
"Our Church In City's History."
Then followed a well prepared piper.
"Our Church In the city's History."
which was a hsief resume of the his
tory of Baptist Interests ftnm lSW.with
special reference to the history of the
r.t-rean Baptist church, which is co
temporary wirh the history of the city,
having been organized only three years
hefoie the city was Incorporated. The
paper was prepared by Deacon P. S,
Joslln, the church clerk, who Is now in
his eighty-fifth year, and was read by
Ptof. A. Wilson Geary, tho assistant
clerk.
The choir sang "As Panteth the
Hart," an anthem by Davis, n.nd the
prayer was offered by Rev. William B.
Orow, who has been a resident of tho
city for more than thirty-six years,
and who Is nenrlng his eighty-fifth
bltthdny. The offertory was a bass
solo by Mr. Roberts, "There's n Beau
tiful Land on High." by Taylor.
Dr. Whalen's Talk.
The pastor's address was based upon
the words recorded In Acts, xl.39, "I
am a citizen of no mean city." By
way of Introduction Dr Whalen brief
ly poitraved the scene In Jerusalem
when the prince of the npostles was
the lctlm of mob violence, and being
rescued by Clnudlas Lyslas, he de
clared to that official among other
things, "I am of Tarsus n citizen of
no mean city." The speaker said that
this was no Idle boast of the apostle,
for Ttrsus was Indeed an honorable
rlty, rivalling In the arts and sciences
Alexandria and Athens, and In.matters
of government the Imperial city Itself,
f-'uch was his ritv that tho mention of
Its fnlr niini" secured to him n hearing,
and rnarle him the master of tho mob
which a little while befoie had sought
to take his life. "Ilnppy the man with
such a clt"! Then he said; "III the
spliitual experiences of the npostlo we
have always had a deep Interest and
it feeling that we hud n patt in them.
Today It Is our pilvllege to share his
leeiings ns n citizen, and in tho lan
guage of the apostle all of u. who
truly appreciate our city can hay. "I
am a citizen of no mean rlty." Had
Tarsus features which made it distin
guished, mi has ouis.
We Aro the Anthracite City.
No city in tho valley or in our com
monwealth Is so closely Identified with
tho great anthraclto interests. It Is
our privilege to set up here during
these, semi-centennial days tnblet
that shall mark tho opening of tho
first underground coal mlno in Amer
ica, The Most Flourishing Industries.
By their products we are known all
o.er the land, and In foreign mntkets.
Mt,ro than this, these manufactories
ate veritable Industrial universities,
where the useful arts are taught and
skilled workmen made.
A Commercial Centre.
Our railroads give us great advantage
In the world of commerce, nnd made us
mote than the ordinary competitors of
other cities.
Our Public Schools.
These have equalised conditions be
tween the rich nnd the poor. The son
of the man of wealth of fifty years ago
find the son of tho laborer of the same
period now share the honors of pub
lic and professional life, and this
through the opportunities possible to all
in our free schools. These schools have
conveited the daughters of toll Into
vomon of culture and Intellectual
worth.
Our Churches.
No town surpasses us In the condition
of ltp churches The Catholicity that
hen exists is in vivid contrast to the
tin moll which we see existing among
the churches of the other towns atound
us.
Our Homes.
Finally, ns the outgrowth of the con
ditions already mentioned, we are a
city of homes. By reason of our suc
cessful Industries an unusually largo
number of our people own their homes.
Prom the school and the church has
emanated influences which have given
oui homes a high moral and religious
character, and they have produced that
type of life which Is common to our
citizens.
At the close of the address Rev.
Charles Lee's seml-rentennlnt hymn
was sung, and a season of greeting was
enjoyed by nil.

FRATERNAL SOCIETIES'
INSURANCE.
Soma Interesting Facts Furnished
by Organizer Borthwick, of Wood
men of the World.
The Tribune representative, In con
eisat!on with John Borthwick, sovei
clgti deputy of the Woodman of the
Woild, gleaned some facts of such Im
portance to a large body of men that
the reading of some will be very Inter
e,tlng, paxtlculaily so since Mr. Borth
wick is always very conservative In
his statements.
"The magnitude of tho fraternal
beneficiary system and tho grand and
noble work being performed by that
kind of Insurance organizations," said
he, "are almost beyond human com
prehension. On Januaiy 1 there weie
127 fraternal Insurance ordeis icpnrt
Ing to the state Insuuinro department
of New York; their combined member
ship was about thiee nnd one-half
millions of people, furnishing insurance
to the fabulous amount of n,3Mi millions
ot dollars. Fraternal otdcrs nto pajing
out benefits at the late of one million
dollats a week to widows and oiplians,
th.in proving a great blessing to tho
ept-re community.
"This form of Insurance is still In its
iniftn' y. yet over flvo hundred millions
tf dollars have nlieady been paid by
the dlffeient oideis. How, many pro.
pin that vast amount of money bus
tUrret ly benefited is beyond rompir
liriitlor.. Tho part being played in this
F,innd ro.npeiatlve movement by tho
Woodmen of tho Woild is by no means
insignificant. Although only eleven
,eais old, they aro now tho fourth or
der o' this kind in numerical strength.
They aro gaining new members at the
LLh H(aH7 Jwtf WW .ly iRti .r v3Bw Im mmfaWt
rnic of six or seven thousand per
month, and have already paid death
rcieilts amounting lo eight and one
half millions of dollars, besides paj
Ing for the erection of over four thou
sand monuments. The camp being
foimed In this city has now sixty-four
Hgiiatuics to the charter list, nnd its
f-iowth from now on, it Is confidently
expected, will be much more rapid.
"Ttuly fraternal Insurance is doing a
grand anil noble work, nnd gaining In
popularity nnd usefulness dally. They"
are mostly inn on the lcserve fund
principle now ami iiffoul s-afc and rea-
sunauiy cneap pioteetlon."
