THURSDAY EVENING,
services will be the presence of the
G. A. R. posts and the Spanish War
veterans and ail other patriotic organ
izations of the city. The old soldiers
will assemble at the headquarters of
Post 58 and march in line to the taber
nacle at 7.15.
At the opening of the service last
night Dr. Stough received an envelope
from the Boys' Brigade of the United
Brethren Church containing a five
dollar gold piece for the purpose of
"starting Mrs. Stough and the six
Stoughlets on their way from home to
spend Christmas in Harrlsburg with
the head of the family." Dr. Stough
used the incident to make a few more
remarks on the probability of the cam
paign extending moro than the six
weeks period.
Stough also made comments on the
voluminous mail he is receiving every
clay and told of one letter asking him
to try to collect some bad debts by a
businessan who is in despair.
A bunch of chrysanthemums was
sent to the platform with the comnli
ments of the men of the Elliott-Fisher
| typewriter factory, who attended the
service last night in a body. Miss
Palmer was also given a bunch much
larger than the one handed to Dr.
Stough from the men of the Enola en
ginehouse, where she has conducted
several meetings.
Seventy-eight Hit Uie Trail '
The total of seventy-eight trailhitters
last night-was larger in proportion to
the very slim audience than on any re
i cent night.
Stough preached an excellent ser
mon on the fallacy, of the contention
of moralists that upright living and
good works alone will be sufficient to
guarantee salvation. He said that
these things are secondary consid
erations and that the soul's standing
on the final judgment day will depend
on faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
His text was "Unless your righteous
ness shall exceed the righteousness of
the scribes and Pharisees ye shall in
nowise enter the kingdom of heaven"
and he endeavored to prove his point
to the man who hasn't hit the trail.
He did not minimize the practice of
morality and decent living, but he
declared these things without faith
cannot save the sinner.
Stough based his argument on the
principles of heredity and environment
as they work on two children, one
born in the slums and the other in
good surroundings, and said that God
would be unjust to hold each one
equally accountable for his actions as
a basis for salvation at the judgment.
He said the Bible lies if there is any
truth in the idea that moralists do not
need the sacrifice of Christ as well as
the worst worldly sinners.
Ridicules Moralists
The evangelist made little of the
moralist's plea that he lives a good
life, pays all his debts, treats his wife
and family well and has never been in
jail for any offense. He spent about
thirty minutes of the sermon In de
scribing an Imaginary trip of the soul
of John Jones, of Harrisburg, a moral
ist, who tried to gain entrance at the
pearly gates, using all the facts of his
upright life as proof of his fitness to
enter heaven.
He put all of his comedy skill into
the presentation of the scene as the
disappointed soul tried to pry his way
into Paradise. He gave the conversa
tions between John Jones and famous
Christians who had been rescued from
evil lives by faith in Christ, showing
the futility of the moraist's attempt to
get inside heaven, reserved for re
deemed souls alone.
He told sinners that they must be
saved on God's terms and not their
own; that holiness is demanded by
God and must be condition of the
heart; whereas morality is a condition
of the outside man.
"It is faith- righteousness and not
works-righteousness that saves. You
cannot work out your salvation, but
you can believe It out. The man who
depends on morality cuts out the first
part of the commandment. 'Love the
Lord with all thy heart and thy neigh
bor as thyself.'
Indian Among Penitents
Among the trailhitters was Joe
Turnn, an Indian boy. whose home is
in Nebraska, and who has been a
football and baseball player at the
Carlisle Indian School, from which he
was recently expelled on account of
drinking. He declared his intention
of leading a Christian life and of re
turning to his Ifome as soon as pos
sible. Another man who is well known
to all members of the Stough party
leaped from among the trailhitters to
the platform and declared that he had
been a Christian, but wanted to seek
forgiveness for a recent departure
from the narrow path. He said he
had been converted in Sunbury during
the campaign and had come to Harris
burg to visit the Stough party, but he
fell in with some Jolly companions and
had several hours' good time, during
which he made a fool of himself. He i
felt the necessity to hit the trail again !
to make himself right with God.
Urges Family Altar
There were ten married couples and
many husbands without their wives. '
Stough told all of them it is his desire 1
to start a family altar in every home
in the city and asked them to pledge
themselves to follow this practice.
Must Be Various Sects
At the afternoon service Dr. Stough
spoke before a small audience of
church people from the seventeenth
chapter of John, the "Prayer of Pray
ers," In which Christ, just before his
crucifixion, prayed to God to glorify

him and to preserve his disciples in
unity and truth. The main trend of
the sermon was theological.
Dr. Stough said it is a glorious thing ■
for so many churches of different de- j
nominations to combine in an evan
gelistic campaign and bring various
creeds together on one level, pointing
to the uniformity of religion, which is
coming more and more to be the spirit
of the age. However, he expressed
the opinion that it would not be wise
to wipe out all denominations because
slight differences in opinions will al
ways.exist among thinking people.

MERGER APPROVED
BY STATE'S BOARD
New York Central Lines May Con
solidate the Several Roads
Mentioned in New Deal
The Public Service Commission last
night ordered that a certificate of pub
lic convenience Issue approving the
consolidation and merger in the mat
ter of the petition of the Lake Shore
and Michigan Southern, the Geneva,
Corning and Southern, and the Dun
kirk, Allegheny Valley and Pittsburgh
Railway Companies for leave to con
solidate with other railroad compa
nies Into the New York Central. Sub
stantially the same action has been
taken by the Interstate Commerce
Commission and by the Public Service
Commission of New York State.
A protest against the merger was
filed by minority stockholders on the
ground that it would be unconstitu
tional, but the commission's inquiry
developed that the consolidation is not
within the language of the prohibition
In the constitution, inasmuch as no
corporation consolidates with or pur
chases the works or franchises of an
other corporation owning or controll-
I Ing a competing or parallel line.
The commission declares, however,
that the approval of the merger is not
an approval of the purchase and Its
legality may be questioned at any
time In a proper manner before a
proper tribunal. The stock remains
In precisely the same situation after
such merger as It was before, In fact
the merger is based upon a statutory
right which exists even though the
parties may have participated In many
unlawful transactions. To refuse the
merger would In no way correct
the supposed difficulty. If the com
mission were to assume Jurisdiction
of this question and should find that
the stock was held and is now held
Illegally It ought to compel a dispo
sition of such stock, but It has no such
power, n fact the contention appears
to be based upon the Illogical thought
that If a party to a controversy has
committed offenses, he may be denied
by way of penalty his legal rights.
This, however, is not the law. Even
a professional burglar may make a
valid will.
The commission makes It plain that
the certificate will evidence the com
mission's approval only of the con
solidation or merger, and the commis
sion expresses no opinion as to the
effect of the ownership by the consoli
dated company of the majority of the
stock of the New York, Chicago and
St. Louis Railroad Company.
