apostles and advocates of Somerset county
and organizer for the State Constitutional
Temperance Amendment Association, was
admitted as an adyisory member of Confer
ence, and addressed the Convention on
Temperance and Prohibition. The Liquor
Trallic received a very "severe handling" at
the hands of those who sjoke on the sub-
iect ; the evils of the business were exposed
and the character and merits of "Prohibi
tion ' were forcibly presented. All present
were convinced of the great cvilsof Licensed
Wliiskev and thev went away satisfied
and jiersuaded that Constitutional Prohi
bition was the only radical cure far the ltum
Curse.
On Wednesday evening at S o'clock anoth
er large assembly awaited the ojiening of the
evening session of Conference. Itev. M. K
Pfahler addressed Conference on the sub
jectFamily Worship, a Scriptural Duty.
After others had spoken on the importance
and duty of the observance of Family Wor-
sliio ihe iiroeramme of the onference was
- i . .
changed somewhat fur the financial interest
and benefit of the Lutheran church in which
Conference held its sessions. An effort was
made to secure funds to complete the build
ing of the church edifice. Itevs. A. M. Whet
stone and J. F. Shearer, two good yoke
fellows in the rare art of getting after and at
money, were selected as a "soliciting Com
mittee." And they were a good, lively
committee, who made use of every lawful
means to reach the hearts and the purses of
Ihe bearers, arguments from an uiifinislixl
church to the persuasive influence of anec
dote and fable wrought iiion the mystic
powers of the purse-string. A good sub
scription list was started, and about f pm
were collected before the large congregation
was dismissed and many hearts went away
glad.
On Thursday morning Conference again
convened at :W o'clock and after one-half
hour spent in devotional services the follow
ing questions were discussed, viz; "What
Qualifications requisite to (. liurfi .Member
ship?" by Key. J. A. Nuner, mid "Wo
man's Work in the Church "by Itev. E.
M. Hubler, who read an excellent essay upon
the subject. Many good and truthful things
were said by the members of Conference
Ukip the purity, sweetness and ennobling
influence of woman, the angel of world.
church and home, but these sentiments
secerned to be only the preface to a scene
both solemn and impressive. Already on
Wednesday, the day previous, it was whis
pered through the silent hamlet of lloovers
ville that a wedding was upon the tapis,
and your reporter caught tbtt whisjier from
afar. All this proved to be true, and the re
ality was now to be demonstrated in this
scene as the proof. The president of Confer
ence stopped the discussion of all questions
involving the marriage of Conference to
llooversville, when two young persons ap
peared in our midst to be wedded right there
to each other.
Mr. Joseph W. Buchanan of llooversville
led Miss Clara A., the talented and accom
ulished daughter of Itev. J. X. Fnruh, to
the altar when they were made one in holy
wedlock by the father of the bride, as
sisted in the ceremonies by Kev. J. F.
Shearer. Many good heartfelt wishes and
congratulations gn with the happy couple in
their wedded life. May their journey be
joyous and jirosjierous together until the
closing hours of a jieaceful old age.
At 2 r. M. T-hursday, Conference convened
again, and the following subjects were dis
cussed in well-prepared and able papers
"Proper Subjects of Baptism" by Itev. J
F. Kuhlman. "The Mode of Baptism" by
Itev. J. II. Zinn. It was conclusively shown
that infants, as well as adult believers, are
proper subjects of baptism, and that no par-
ticuler mode is essential to the validity of
the ordinance. This church question was
thoroughly and impartially discussed and
the right of choice of Christian liberty fully-
allowed.
The Committee on Resolutions reported
and presented the following among other
resolutions for the serious consideration of
the Lutheran people of Somerset county, viz:
Whereas, Believing that the system pre
vailing in our State of licensing the sale of
alcoholic liquors is one of the greatest of
present evils, and the source of useless taxa
tion, of poverty, lawlessness and crime, we
express the sense of this Conference in tiie
following resolutions :
Firat, That an amendment to our State
Constitution, prohibiting the manufacture
and sale of ail alcoholic liquors is tlu only
cure for the evils of intemperance, and that
this movement of the Tetniierance issue
commend itself to the influence and support
of all Christian people, and members of our
churches.
Second, That we fully recognize the effi
ciency and influence of the work of the Wo
men's Christian Temperance Cniotis in the
cause of Temperance and Prohibition, and
cjmtnend their efforts among our church
people and pledge them our personal sym
pathy and influence.
Third, That the pastors of Conference be
and are hereby requested to preach on the
subject of Temperance before the next meet
ing of Conference.
Fourth, That these resolutions, (having
reference to temperance) be published in
the Lutheran jitrrrcr and Ecnn-jrlitt, and in
our county papers ; and that the pastors of
Conference read the same to their people
from the pulpit.

The subject of this notice was a native of
Somerset county, having been born in Sto
nycreck township in the J'ear 1M7, but for
the past nineteen years was a resident of
Goshen, Indiana, to which place he remov
ed wheu about 18 years of age. He was
man fair and honorable in bis dealings with
his fellow men and of a kind and gentle
nature that won for him many friends who
will learn with sorrow of his untime
ly death. To his wife and three children
who survive him, he was a kind husband
aud tUiWtionate father, whose loss will be
deeply felt by them, and above all a sincere
Christian, of which he gave strong evidence
by the humility and fortitude with which
he bore the suffering consequent upon a
long and very painful illness. Though his
sufferings were intense be never murmured
or complained, but be often expressed a de
sire to depart and be with Christ, and he
joyfully obeyed the call that set him free.
He was buried on the 10th of May, accord
