Other News Notes.
The Plymouth Congregational church
.vas filled to Its utmost capacity
at both the morning and the
evening services yesterday, when Rev.
Evan It. Williams, of Coolville. Ohio,
delivered two excellent sermons. He Is
a former resident of West Scranton,
and ls the son of air. and Mrs. Evan
J. Williams, of Hampton street.
Rev. Williams und wife are spending
a month's vacation In this city. She
.was formerly Miss Mima Jones, of
North Bromley avenue. The subject
of his morning discourse was "The
rinsis of Our Unity with God," the
texts being from passages in the Gos
pel of John xtv:10, and I John iv:8. Ho
spoke, in part, as follows:
Wllhin the liuin.m life theic hm err been a
disiro for the receiving of .1 manifestation el
the Divine and Infinite, a longing fo enmc Into
touch with the power that li above and beyond
the powers nnd attainment of the mere human
lite. Within mar, wherever he may he found,
there is an inner coneioiiincs that assures him
of a "Divinity tint shapes our end," and a
manifestation of that Divinity ha become a
strong necessity to the life.
Within the ChrUt-llfr of (lie ".Man-nf-Ovliloc"
there on be found this manifestation which meets
the requlremcntj, anil which alone can suffice for
the intellect, the heart, and tiie conscience of
nun. Christ is the true revelation of (!od. The
whole nature of this life in its mode and m inner
of eistcnce, in the form of its manifestation,
ts comprised in one great, might;, powerful vord,
Love.
tn fact, while Jesus may not have mentioned
the fact in words, still He implanted the idea
deeply in His dlfciples' mind that "fiod is
Love," a truth grave and impressive, upon which
no man lias imbed or meditated too long. The
bond that holds the "l.'ieiljsting Three in One"
is Love. I.ovc, true love, is tiie only power tiiat
in bind us to t!od and rhrit. AVIiatevir nny
be the theory of our profession, whatever the
dipctrine or cieed in which we believe, to have
the true religion 01 gospel in our lives we must
be one with the l'.itlicr in Love.

The fact is conceded that for years past the progress of

successes with each succeeding season. Year by year has wit

and profit of our patrons, and during the present season, not
withstanding that the floor space of this department has been
doubled, we have been taxed to our utmost to keep pace with
the never-ceasing flow of appreciative buyers, the number of

FUTURE OF AMERICAN STEEL.
From Andrew Carnegie's "'ilic Kinpiic ot Iluii.
lll'M."
A few years hence the exports of Iron
and steel and' manufactures of Iron and
steel from the republic to many parts
of tho world, which In 1900 were valued
at $129,000,000, promise to be so great as
to constitute another chapter in the
lecord-breaktng history of steel.
The Influence of our steel-making ca
pacity upon development at homo must
be marvelous, for tho nation that makes
the cheapest steel has tho other nations
at its feet so far us manufacturing In
most of Its branches la concerned. Tho
cheapest steel means the cheapest
ships, tho cheapest machinery, tho
cheapest thousand and one articles of
which steel Is tho base. We are on tho
eve of a development of the manufac
turing powers of tho republic such as
tho world hus never seen.
Tho republic's progress and com
manding position as a. steel pioducer
are told In a few words; In 1873, only
twenty-bcven years ago, tho United
States produced 198,796 tons of steel,
and Gteat Britain, her' chief competi
tor, 633,500 tons, moro than three times
as much. Twenty-six years later, In
IS99, the republic made more than
twice as much us the monarchy, tho
figures being 10,639,857 and 5,000,000 tons
respectively, an elght-fold Increase for
Great Britain and fifty-three-fold for
tho republic, and It made almost 40 per
cent, of all the steel made in the world,
which was 27,000.000 tons. Industilal
history has nothing to show compar
able to this, n
So much for the past; as for the fu
ture, ere the present century runs one
third Its' course, porchuuee only one
fourth, the United States Is to make
more steel than all tho rest of the world
combined and supply the wants of
many .lands besides our own. '
Farewell, then, Age of Iron; all hail,
King Steel, nnd success to the icpubllc,
the future seat and centre ot his em
pire, where ho is to sit enthroned and
vt ork hlu wonders upon the earth.
