SUNDAY AT
THE CHURCH.
The Antl-Bowmanltes Still Hold the
Evangelical Fort.
THEIR STAY UNCERTAIN !
A Meeting of the Congregation to be
Held To-night to Form a Plan of
Action M Other CUurclies.
Every seat In the Evangelical church, at
the corner of Cherry nnd West streets,
wns occupied last evening, many people
who are not regular attendants nt the
services hnvlng been attracted by tho
announcement that it would probably he
the last service of the nntl-Bowruanltes
in tho church.
As on the preceding Sunday, reference
to the church troubles was made re
peatedly during the service, both in
prayer and sormon, but no announcement
was made as to the present status ot the
case. The pastor, Rev. LIchtenwalner,
took the text for the sermon from Philip
plans IV ; 4 : "Rejoice in the Lord always
and again, I say, rejoice." The pastor
said that perhaps the text sounded
strange, in view of the troubles the con
gregatlon was experiencing, but it was
nevertheless appropriate to the occasion
as the troubles which nffilct the people
are but blessings in disguise and that
they should rejoice that they have a
mediator in the Savior.
Just before the close ot the service Rev.
LIchtenwalner announced that the con'
gregatlon would meet in the church nt
eight o'clock to night to consider the situ
ntlon which has been brought about by
the decision of the Supreme Court and ar
range plans for the future.
The church has been stripped of its car
pets'by tho trustees under legal advice
that the carpets are personal property of
the congregation, and beforo the church is
vacated the chandeliers and the pews will
be removed. It Is expected the Bowman-
ites will take bteps to gain possession this
week.
Tbopulplt of the Welsh Baptist church,
corner of Oak and West streets, was oc-
cupted yesterday by Rev. Abel J. Parry,
of Wales. The clergyman preached in
Welsh at the morning service and In
English in tho evening. lie is a man of
commanding presence and a forcible and
impressive pulpit orator. Rev. Parry Is
the author of a number of religious
works and is known to tho Welsh people
throughout the world as one of the most
able of their countrymen engaged in
Christian work. Both services were
attended by large numbers of people
from neighboring towns. Rev. Parry
went to Shamokln this morning.
Harvest Home services were held in the
Protestant Episcopal church, on East
Oak street, last evening. The interior of
the church was handsomely decorated
with plants, flowers and yielding of the
harvest season. The pulpit was a bounti
ful Bight. Rev. Bridgman, the pastor,
delivered an effective sermon appropriate
to the occasion.
There was a large attendance in the
Methodist Episcopal church, on East
Oak street, last evening, to hear an able
discourse by Rev. William Powlck on
"Is there balm in Gilend i"
The Base Bawl.
The Shenaudoah Heiiaid objects be
cause the Record published the defence of
the Shenandoah base ball management.
The Record is not concerned in this dis
pute. Our'own experience Is that sport
ing affairs usually end with a bankrupt
treasury, and those who have done honest
work fail to get their honest pay. Maha-
noy Record. Our contemporary mistakes
the Herald's position. No objection has
been made to anything the Record has
done or said. The objection was lodged
against the Shenandoah Base Ball Asso
ciation misleading the public.

of the railway company, In order to clear
tbe corporation of blame. Honohman
claimed he was defeated for re-nomina
tion by the article. In granting tbe non
Bult the Judge ruled tho publication com
plained of was a proper subject for news
paper comment.

REAL ESTATE
DEALINGS.
A New
Building For the Phoenix
Fire Company.
HARKINS PROPERTY SOLD !
To be Transformed Into a Hose House,
The "Herald" Property Also Sold.
Room Tor a Factory.
It Is gratifying to know that In spite of
the general complaint of hnrd times
there are peoplo in town who have
money nnd grit to expend it lu a
channel which will give some of
the unemployed n chance to better
their condition. Two important real
estate deals have just been made and
they will bo of direct benefit to many of
tho masons, carpenters, bricklayers nnd
other workmen.
One of the deals is tho purchase of tho
Harkins property, on North Jnrdin street.
by the Phrenlx Hoso Company. The con
sideration Is $1,000. The property immedi
ately adjoins tho hoso house ou the south
side and Is now occupied by two-story
frnmo dwellings which were constructed
many years ngo.
The object of the purchase is to enable
tho hose company to provide itself with
larger and more suitable quarters than it
has at present. The old buildings on the
property just purchased will bo razed and
a brick structure will be put up in their
place. It has not been decided whether
the building will be two or threo stories
high, but a plan for the lntter will prob
ably be decided upon.
It is intended to make the building one
of the most complete fire company head
quarters In this part of the state. Tho
first floor will be used for tho apparatus.
The second lloor will be divided into n
loafing, reading and bath rooms. Should
a three-story structure be decided upon
tho upper floor will be fitted up ns a
lodge room. The company will hold a
ball on Now Year's Eve to raise money
for tho building fund.
Another deal is the purchase of tho
property on East Coal street now occupied
by tho Hei'.ald Publishing Company.
The property was sold by tho company to
the Schuylkill Hat & Cap Manufacturing
Company ou Saturday, nnd under the
terms ot the sale possession is to be sur
rendered on December 1st, next. The
negotiations for this sale had been under
way for almost a year.
The purchasers will transform tho
present two-story brick structure into a
three-story factory, abandoning the pres
ent quarters on North White street, which
have become too small fortholrconstnntly
increasing business. It is intended to
equip tho new building ith all the latost
Improved machinery for the manufacture
of hats nnd caps and make It a complete
plant in every detail.
Messrs. Self and Lautersteln, represen
tatives of tho company, wero oa tho
ground to day and said they intended to
begin building operations nt once, but lu
such a manner ns not to interfere with
the present occupants. The new structure
will be wider than the present one, tho
third story taking the full width of the
old building to the rear.
The HKUALD Publishing Compnny will
make preparations at once to vacate the
property and hns three good places in
view within halt n square of the corner
of Main and Centre streets. A location
will probably bo decided upon before the
close of this week. The transfer of tho
office from the outskirts to tho henrt of
the town will be a great advantage to the
publishers.

A Cooking Club.
Tho Cooking Club is the title of n new
organization ot young ladles of Mt. Car
mel. What tho object ot the association
is cannot bo definitely determined, though
It Is claimed that it is the desire ot these
young ladles to learn to cook. In other
words, the young woman of Mt. Carmel
hopes some day to be a thing of joy to her
husband and when she promises to bake
him something nice she will fulfllll it by
placing before him a plate ot toothsome
cookies Instead of tho notorious "sinkers."

a candy kitchen on Saturday, Oct. ISth,
