WHAT THE SGRIBES SEE AND HEAR
An Interesting Sermon in the
Methodist Episcopal Church
Last Night on "Prating
Slaves Proaching Liberty."
The subject ot last night's sermon in tho
Methodist Episcopal church was "Prating
Slaves Preaching Liberty." Tho text was
2Pcter2-19: "Whilothoy promise them
liberty they thomsolves aro the sorvants of
corruption." Tbo cry of tho old states
man "give mo liberty or give me death"
still rings in our ears and awakens a re
sponsive echo in every heart. Tho dosiro
fur liberty is universal but men do not
agree in thoirdefinition of liberty. Thesenso
in which it is usually used in the biblo is
that of freedom from tho bondago of cor
ruption from tho slavery of a depraved
heart. This is the most cruel and galling
slavery in tho world. Ono of its charac
toristirs is tbo lnsidiousnes9 with which it
fusions its fetters upon its victims. It does
its work much liko a serpent which a man
had raisod and trained and played with for
many years, but which ho playod with
onco too often and was dostroyod. Another
of its features is its "wantonness" or in tho
language of plain peoplo dovilisbnoss.
"Ilaving eyes full of adultery and that
cannot ceaso from sin, beguiling unstable
souls; an heart they have exercisod with
covetous practices; cursod childron which
have forsaken tho right way and aro gone
astray following tho way of Balaam who
loved tho wages of unrighteousness.'
Anothor characteristic is Its vanity. They
"spoak great Bwolling words 'of vanity."
They sot their own impulsos and passions
up, In opposition to tho word of God, as
moral guides and laugh tho Sabbath out of
court because it is a puritanical Institution
as though it could not bo puritanical and
biblical, and bo old and yet truo. An
othor characteristic is nyprocisy, for these
prating slaves preach liberty a thing to
which they are themselves strangers.
What could bo moro patholic yet ludlcrouB
than for slavos of corruption to offer lib
erty. Tho unbridlod llcenso to dofy ob-
jectionablo laws both human and divino
which is often preached under Its sacred
name would destroy all the liberty wo have
and thereby defeat its own end. Take
away tho restraints of wholesome laws and
thcro is no liborty loft" for anybody. This
would bo a stato of anarchy and ono which
me fins llcenso for the slavo of lust and
slavery in the roEt of mankind. This is
tho kind of liborty that Is being preached
by prating slaves of corruption all over tho
land. Thoro is no liberty worthy of tho
namo that does not Includo the omancipa-
tion of tbo soul from corruption and a
slavish obedience to tho "perfect law of
liberty." Tho only roally freo men aro
those whom tho Son makes free and who
count it their highet joy, to be, with Paul,
tho slavos of Josus'Christ.

Ths Oonnors Case.
Tho trial of tho cssoof Policeman D. J,
Connors against Mrs. Androw Wolanto-
konis for assault and battery was endod at
Pottsvillo on Saturday. Tho jury ren
derod a verdict of not guilty and tho costs
were put on tho county. Tbo jury was
evidently influenced by tho woman's doll
cate condition. The case arose from Con
nors' efforts to collect taxes. The woman's
husband was called upon for payment and
rofusod. A row followed and tho woman
beat tho officer on tho back of tho bead
while he was engaged in a struggle with
tho husband, who subsequently paid tho
tuxes in the 'squire's office. On tho trial
evidence came out to show that tho hus
band secured a miner's certificate undor ono
namo and bis naturalization papers under
another. It also devolopod that tho man
has rosided In this country seven years, has
boena resident os the First ward four years:
and has paid taxes but twice.

Judge Pershing directed him to pay a fine

about $20. Toolo admitted the assault, but
claimed that he lost his temper through
DoTurk'8 aggravation. Judge Pershing
strongly deprecated tbo occurrence and
stated that various suggestions had boon
made to him as to the punishment, some
urging imprisonment. Ho had not con

Wabiiinqton, Sop. 21. Attorney-Gen
eral Miller has caused to ba dismissed
the proscoutlons recently commenced In
Milwaukee against certain nowspaper
publishers for printing an argument
against tho vulldlty of tho anti-lottery
law passed by tho Jflrty-llrst Congress.
"The articles, " says tho Attorney-
General, "were published and repub
lished with thoorlaentpurpoEOoiattemu
ina to creato a publlo Bontlrnont against
tho law rather than to advortiso tho
business of any lottery company, In my
opinion the luw was not directed against
the circulation of such publications in
the mails, and tho prosecutions, there
fore were iU-advlsod and ought not to bo
continued.
"While I am in favor of prosecuting
vigorously every Inunction ol tuo law,
whether direct or ovaslve I think tho re
fusal of the use of the malls to paper?
discussing tno principle or policy ot tha
law is unwarranted, and would hurl
rather than help ttio cause in tho interest
01 which tno law was onaotoa."

HAZLETON DEFEATED.
Scanlan Rescues tho Homo Toam
From Dofeat.
Tho game of baso ball at tho trotting
park Saturday aftornoon botwoen tho Haz
lotcin and Manager Sampsell's teams was
quite interesting. For tho first four innings
tho homo club had up hill work. The
pitcher for tho visitors soon?,jd to hold the
nomo players well in nana, jvbilo l ilzger-
aid weakened after tho flr.t inning, after
striking out two men. At tho closo of the
fourth inning the scoro stood six to four in
favor of tho visitors. In tho fifth Scanlan
wont into tho box for tho homo team and
ho did splendid work. Ho did not allow a
Uazlcton man to got to first baso and bo
struck out five of them. His pitching
groatly encouraged tho homo players aud
they jumped on Jacobs, tho vuiting pitcher
in tho fifth. Scanlan himself commenced
with a hit. Gibson also hit the ball, but
Bachman, on third base, throw him out at
first. Then Sangor stepped to tho plato
and made tho hit of tho gamo. Ho drove
tho ball with terrific forco high in tho air
ovor tho field botwoen loft and center and
down on tho race track. It was a home
run drivo and tho audlenco wont wild with
dolight. Scanlan scored and as Sangor
camo in and tied tho scoro he was carried
from tho homo plato by enthusiasts.
Tho inning ondod with tho scoro even
Hinks flying out to contor field and Fitz
gerald Etriking out. In tho sixth inning
tho visitors wont out In ono-two-threo or
der. Scanlan threw Boyor out at first,
Jacobs struck out and Toole pulled down
tho ball at short. Sampsell's men woro
moro fortunato at tho bat. After Toolo
flow out to short Ward hit tho ball a whack
that gave it a homo run hue. Great choer
ing was going on when Kimmel, tbo
Ilazleton contor fielder, whilo on a run,
pulled down tho ball with his outstretchod
left band. This catch was the feature of
tho gamo and tho cries of exultation
turnod to applause from all sides for Kim
mel. IClino also hit tho ball and errors by
the visitors, with a hit by Scanlan, enabled
him to scoro. Tho latter also scored and
mado tbo rocord 8 to 0 In favor of tho homo
team. Tho visitors wont out in one-two-throo
ordor In tho sovonth, eighth and
ninth Innings. Scanlan was too much for
them, fhey got ono ball out to loft and
ono to contor, but both woro scoopod in.
Scanlan struck three of tho mon out and
tho rust of tho balls woro captured at short,
second and third bases. In the seventh
Barton wont into tbo box for Hazleton and
did woll. Scanlan opened the ninth inning
by striking out Boyor. Gibson caught
Jacobs' foul and Fitzgerald got tho ball
from tbird to first before Barton could
touch tho baso. Thus tho gamo endod
with the score standing 8 to Gin favor of
tho homo team, If tho clubs would give
a few games hero beforo tho season closet
they would undoubtedly bo woll patronized
as they seem well matched and put up a
good gamo. Moyor, tho Hazloton loft
fielder, would havo had a Sanger hit to his
crodit If ho had not lost his hoad. In tbo
third inning ho bit tho ball for a homo run,
but in going around tho diamond bo
nogloctod to touch any of tho bags. The
umpire caught him skipping tho third bag
and doclarod him out.
