badly that it was found necessary to

on the stand all day Friday, was ex
cused shortly before noon, his cross-examination
having been llnished, and
his wife followed him on the stand.
There were a number of sharp inter
changes between Attorney John T.
Leniihnn, who represents the defend
ant companies, and Attorney John Mc

so sharp. In fact, that Judge Arehbald
was forced to remonstrate. Court will

TWO SPLENDID
BIBLE TALKS
REV. D. M. STEARNS AT GRACE
REFORMED CHURCH.
Former Pastor Addressed Two Largo
Congregations Yesterday Said
That tho Bible Is True Word for
Word nnd Paid His Respects to
tho Higher Critics Would Prefer
to Bo Regarded ns a Fool by Them
Rather Than by God Denomina
tions of Little Account.
Rev. D. M. Stearns, paslor of the
Church of the Atonement, at German
town, gave two Bible talks yesterday
In Grace Reformed Episcopal church to
congregations which taxed the seating
capacity of tho auditorium. Rev. Mr.
Stearns was pastor of Grace church
from ISSO to 1S!)2, and his able Bible
talks and sermons during those years
kept the church filled at all services.
Since ho left this city, In addition to
carrying on his regular pastoral duties,
he has been instructing largo Bible
classes in Philadelphia, New York,
Washington and Baltimore, some week
ly nnd some semi-monthly. His thor
ough familiarity with the Scriptures
and his entirely original and refreshing
methods of Imparting what ho knows
to others have won him wide fame. He
very seldom attempts to preach a sot
sermon, contenting himself with draw
ing his remarks direct from the Bible
as he proceeds. His talks teem with
Scriptural quotations.
Last night lie took for the basic text
of his talk three versos of Scripture:
Matthew, 13:11: Mark, 4:11 and Luke,
S:10. In all of these verses appear sub
stantially these words: "It Is given
unto you to know the mysteries of the
kingdom of heaven, but to them It Is
not given."
He began by explaining that a mys
tery is something that Is known only to
tho Initiated and therefore only those
who have ncOopled Christ can possibly
know anything of tho mysteries of the
kingdom of heaven. There is a mystery
connected with tills present age, he de
clared, and he then proceeded to ex
plain ills position. .
Bible Is One Book.
"Tho Bible Is one book. It Is one
story," he said. "I believe every single
word of It from beginning to end. There
are a great many wise men who would
declare me to be a fool for making' such
an assertion, but I stand on it. ' These
wise men, and some of them are in our
theological seminaries, are inclined to
the bullet that Adam and Eve arc
myths, and that Abraham and Isaac
are sort of lunar personages or some
thing of that sort. They haven't got
much real use for the Bible, and they
call the people ignorant who believe in
it implicitly. On tho other hand, un
less you believe in it as I do, you stand
a fool in the presence of Jesus Christ.
I would rather be right In God's sight
and a fool in the eyes oC tho wise men
and professors than right with them
and a fool beforo God."
He pointed out that In the first two
rlmpters of Genesis a perfect world is
spoken of. In the third chapter tlio
devil enters and remains more or less
prominent until the last two chapters of
the book of Revelations, when a perfect
world Is again spoken of. A perfect
circle is thus formed. Nothing Is men
tioned as to the present age. Tho old
Testament mentions the coming of
Christ, Ills sufferings and the glory
that will follow eventually, but there
is nothing of the interval between tho
present age.
The first degree, the speaker said, is
the acceptance of Christ. This is not
difficult if the sinner believes. All that
Is required is to say sincerely, "I be
lieve Christ died bearing my sins, and
I accept Him as my Savior."
"How can you accept ClnistV" said
he. "Just tell Him so. That's all. He
Is waiting to enter into your heart if
you will but open it to Him. How will
r feel? someone asks. It is not a mutter
of feeling. It Is a matter of belle!'; a
matter of faith-"
Must Have Faith.
When Christ is accepted, tho saved
man must believe that God was really
manifest in the llesh.
"It must mean this to you person
ally," ho said. "It Is not for you to
argue or reason about. It is for you to
believo with all your soul. Receive It
meekly and hold it fast.
"When you havo accepted Christ, Ho
lives in you," ho continued. "You say,
'I'd feel differently if that were so.'
That doesn't enter Into It. The ques
tion is, Do you believe tho word of God;
do you believe what God himself has
said'.' Don't hesitate to say, 'I live not,
hut Christ llvcth In me.' I wouldn't
dare to cen Imaslno this if It wasn't
In the Bible, but It's there nnd I must
believe It. There Is no getting around
It."
Christ, Itov. Mr. Stearns declared, is
at present engaged In gathering all tlio
members of His church Into one body.
"There are many denominations," laid,
he, "but only one church, Wherever
on tho fueo of tho earth there Is one, be
he or she Roman Catholic, Presby
torlau, Unformed Episcopalian, or mem
ber of no church, who believes In tho
Lord Jesus Christ as tho Savior of sin
ners, that person Is a member of tho
body of Christ, of the company of all
true believers, There aro many whoso
names aro on church books hero whoso
names aro not on the books of heaven,
and there aro many hero on earth
whoso names aro on tho hooks of no
church but uro transcribed in letters of
gold on tho heavenly register. It doesn't
mutter a cent's worth what church you
belong to If you are a belluvcr In Christ
and Him crucified.
"Tho work of Hie church has not been
fairly begun, because tho church Itself
is not finished. We are still at school,
becoming fitted for our life work.
Christians and Disciples,
"There aro 'many saved people who
will havo some place In tho kingdom of
God, but there are very fow disciples.
Thero Is a world of difference between
a Christian and a dlsolplu of Christ,
The cost of mere salvation falls wholly
on Christ, The cost of dlsclpleshlp falls
wholly on us. Dlsclpleshlp is costly,
To be a Christian, one must accept
Christ, To be a disciple, one must let
everything go for Christ's sake,
"Dr. Campbell Morgan said last sum
mer that we havo too many sick Chris
tians. I wish you would consider this
remark. I wish you would remember
how many of us there are who try to
support our soul on one meal a week.
It's no wonder that we are sick, feeblo
and enervated. I think that if there
was a hospital for sick Christians It
would bo full to overflowing all the
time.
"Thero aro some Christians who aro
so conceited that they fancy that tho
Dr. Lyon's
PERFECT;
Tooth Powder
Used by people of refinement
for over a quarter of a century,
mission of the church Is to convert the
world durlnp; this age. No such thing.
God Is just now conducting an election.
Ho Is picking out the souls who will
finally become members of the church
Which will establish Ills kingdom hero
on earth, and when that kingdom Is
established there will bo peace and
prosperity for nil."

STILL ANOTHER
BIG MEETING
ROUSING ENTHUSIASM IN
NORTH SCRANTON.
Over 1,000 Voters Gathorcd In tho
Auditorium on Saturday Night
and Listened to Addresses by
Thomas H. Dnlo nnd Major Ever
ett Warren The Latter Told How
tho Strlko Was Settled by tho In
tervontion of a Republican Presi
dentMr. Dnlo's Remarks.
A splendid Republican ntnss meeting
attended by over 1,000 voters was held,
Saturday night, in the Auditorium In
Norlh Seranton and the greatest en
thusiasm prevailed. Addresses were
made by Major Everett Warren and
Thomas H. Dale.
Seated on the platform In addition to
the speakers wero Attorney II. S. Al
worth, who presided, and the follow
ing Republican candidates: Judge A.
A. Vosburg, County Commissioners J.
Courier Morris nnd John Penman,
John B. Jordan, Joseph Oliver, Hon,
John Solicitor, Jr., Hon. Edwurd James,
Hon. P. A. Philbln, Llowiyn M. Evans
and David F. Williams. Others on the
platform were: Select Councilman John
Von Bergen, Common Councilman J. B.
Casterllne and School Controller Walter
B. Christmas.
In Introducing the speakers Chairman
Alworth referred briefly to the urgent
necessity of electing a Republican con
gressman. Mr. Dale, the first speaker,
began by asserting that there can be
no possible excuse for a failure on tho
part of any Republican to come out
nnd vote the straight Republican ticket
on election day. Nasty weather and
Democrats always go together and tho
Republicans need to remember this in
case November 4 Is an unpleasant day.
.Merits of the Candidates.
Mr. Dale next discussed at some
length the merits of the Republican
candidates as compared with those on
the other side. He spoke of Congress
man Connell as a man who has al
ways been jealous of the interests ot
the Republican party and of his dis
trict. To elect a Democrat nominated
by a demoralized convention In his
stead would be an Insult to President
Roosevelt, he declared. Judge Vos
burg's distinguished ability should In
sure him an almost unanimous vote
from North Seranton, he said. The
rest of the ticket is made up of men
In every sense capable of efficiently
filling the places .they are seeking, he
declared.
The Democrats, Mr. Dale asserted,
have no fixed .policy. They are as
changeable and as uncertain as a fad
dish woman. They have offered no
state issues for the consideration of
the voters and content themselves with
mud-slinging. He referred to the argu
ments upon the question of tariff re
vision which are being advanced by
Democratic papers to influence voters
for Democratic congressmen and said
that if the tariff Is to be revised, and
he would not admit the necessity of
such revision, it would be better to
have it revised by its friends than by
its enemies.
Settlement of the Strike.
Major Warren made one of his char
acteristic speeches full of biting sar
casim and caustic hits at the sham
issues raised by the Democratic parly
In this campaign. Ho referred to the
settlement of the coal strike through
the intervention of a Republican presi
dent and declared that the miners
have every reason to vote the Repub
lican ticket. These remaks were greet
ed with loud applause and when he
asked what Democrat interested him
self In behalf of tho miners a big man
In a back seat shouted "John Mitchell."
"John Mitchell Is not a Democrat. He
Is a Republican," replied the major and
the big man was heard from no more.
Major Warren referred to the title
of Anti-Machine party adopted by a
lot of Democratic renegades and said
that this party represented a lot of dis
satisfied malcontents and nothing more.
He referred also to the trust question
and showed that many of the men
largely Interested In the control of these
giant combinations of capital are Dem
ocrats, notably, John D. Rockerfeller
and J. Plerpont Morgan. He said that
It shouldn't bo forgotten that President
Baer, of the Reading, Is also a Demo
