Yesterday morning the Rev. DR.. Hartsock
preached his farewell sermon to a large con-
gregation. He took for his text the thirty
first worse of the twentieth chapter of Acts:
Therefore watch and remember that by the
space Of three year l ceased not to warn
every one night and day with tears" He
referred to his pastorate Of three years among
the Hamline people, saying he had tried to
preach Christ and Him crucined. To preach
religion that was calculated to make the
people better and happier, and prepare them
to do good and get good. He had tried to
strengthen the followers of the Saviour, and
to save those who had no saving knowledge
of Him. He had aimed to preach faith that
brings q aoO salvation. The church was
organized to save the people from

a number of young people having Joined the
church during his stay with them. His wish
for his successor was that, whoever he might
be, he would be a man who would be sent to
continue the good work God had been SO
pleased TO bless them with; one who would
preach Jesus, the mighty to save" The
highest attainment in this life, he said, was
was to be like Jesus; and this was the great
hope of the church, and one he trusted that
| would continue as the watchword of the
whole membership. Referring to his three
years labor he gave the following statistics
Number of pastoral visits, 1926; baptisms,
100; funerals, 81; received by certificates,

at the close of the service stated that every
dollar of the current expenses of tho church
was paid, and the new year would begin with
no embarrassments for the new pastor.

SUGAR.
Prof. wiIcy's Lecture Mt tho National
Museum Oh Saturday.

"uheum Oh sutuEuAys
The lecture on "The Sugar Industry Of the
North" delivered by Prof. II. w. Wiley on
Saturday at the national museum, was largely
attended Mr.. Wiley said that the grades of
civilization could almost be noted by the
quantity of sugar consumed in the different
countries The quantity used in the United
States in 1880 was 36.S pounds per head in
1882 40 pounds, and in 1888 i2 pounds
In Europe the amount per capita was IL
pounds in Germany, - pounds in France
and 30 pounds in England. 1t is not known
when sugar was first discovered Tho
Chinese knew something about IL 5000 years
ago. but the ancient Greeks and Romans
nothing. In the year $50 A. ID. it was pre-
scribed in small quantities rs medicine
and as late as lao 1t was very littlo used
Sugar is an article that we are all familiar
with, but as yet, no one has been able to de-
termine exactly what ii is. He would hesi-
tate to say that it is the same as charcoal and
water, but If analysed ii would be found that
both contain tho same chemical elements.
There are four kinds of sugar that can be
produced in the north: Sorghum. beet,
maple, and grape. sugar. For tho
production of sorghum it is found
that temperature of 20 degrees is required.
The beet does not need so much heat.
Sorghum is particularly adapted to q dry
climate. Tho roots have been known to
penetrate to depth of ten feet. Tho manu-
facture OF sorghum is much more extensive
in this country than that of the others. A
great part of the profit derived from this
industry is in the pulp, seed, and root, all of
which are utilized. The pulp is used for the
manufacture of paper. for feeding of cattle,
and for various other purposes. The seed,
which is a cereal similar to wheat corn, or
oats, is used very proftably in fattening
hogs, while the sirup is in constant demand.
The manufacture of beet sugar in this coun-
try has not been very successful. Several
large factories have been established, but
have nearly all failed. In France and
Germany, however, great quantity
is produced annually. Grape sugar,
which is made out of corn
starch. is used for the adulterarion OF
sirups and other sugar. The sugar used in
commerce is much purer than is generally
supposed; hardly any being adulterated.
The quality of sugar is tested by sutecting
it to polarized light. But out Of forty sam
Piles of sirups which he had examined, moi
one proved to be pure. In describing the
process of refining sugar he said that after
being dissolved in water q large quantity
of blood was poured into it, after which il
was filtered through charred bones. During
his lecture, he frequently illustrated hi
remarks with chemical experiments. The

Newcomb on Psychic Force" Saturday

TEMPERANCE AT ST. PETERS.
An Interesting and Timely Sermon from
Father O'Sullivan.


After the reading of the Gospel of the day
yesterday at the 1880 o'clock mass at st.
Peters church, the pastor, Father OSullivan,
began his discourse by referring to tho duties
that are called for by the Lenten season. The
Gospel Of the day spoke Of the temptation of
our Lord, and as a comparison the tempta-
tions of this world were alluded to. Such
were surrounding the Christian at all times,
and especially when the servant of God was
striving by fasting and penitenCo to bring
himself closer to God. The young
Christian in setting forth was assailed, and
to ward against the evils his trust must be
in the Lord as his helper and strength. Life
was encompassed with many embarrassments
and discomftures, and at such moments was
faith found to be most needful Turning
from this theme, the discourse was directed
to the young and old men among his hearers,
particularly to the former, to whom he ad-
dressed in pathetic and fatherly terms words
of wise counsel and advice to keep aloof from
tho wickedness of this world. In speaking
Of fasting and abstinence he said, though
fasting could not be required of all or enforced,
those excepted could bear in mind that prayer,
earnest and needfnl was to be made duty
not only at church, but at home in the every
day labor and walk of life. To the young
mon he would appeal to abstain from worldly
life and strive by example TO emulate Christ
He deprecated on their part such conduct as
would bring censure upon them. He ad-
vised them to refrain from intemperance,
from standing upon street corners from idle
ness, and kindred vices Tho idling away
of time about the street and street corners was
| forerunner of evil doings, eventually end
ing in the commission of evil deeds and in
temperance. He did not propose to
| speak on temperance in particular
way, but in its wide acceptation Temperance
| in all things was needed for bodily health
and spiritual welfare Nothing was more
disgraceful or ruinous to manhood and the
| oul than drunkenness. Drink was de-
structive to the innate qualities of the man.
| 1t was Objectionable to a right spirit of Chris-
| tianity. No sight was more painful than q
home destroyed through its pernieiousness,
and worse than all the downfall of one or more
of It's inmates through such influences.
What was drunkenness? What did it mean
Tho daily newspapers could give them a
record of it. A judge Of the criminal court OF
this city had announced officially that nine
out of every ten prisoners before him were
so placed through intemperance. What was
palmer than this? Was it to be wondered al
that many a mother, wife, and sister had been
found at length to turn from pity to reprOaGh
and in many cases barely escape blow made
| by drunkard in a maddened and maudliu
state? Yet, however fallen and depravcd Q
man may be, while he lives he must be led
by sympathetic hand and guided safely ou
of the evil he has fallen into. 1t was duty
to extend hand to our fellow man, and par
ticularly SO when we find him unable to hell
| himself

of the Tabernacle church was held yesterday.
In the morning . special choir, which had
been previously organized, rendered service
of song, and large number of new members
were received, followed by a sermon by the

was, Stand in the Liberty Wherewith Christ
Has Made You Free" The evening service
was opened with a solo by Mr.. Il. j. Whipplo.
The pastor then preached an interesting SER
mon, and the exercises were closed with q
solo by Mr.. H. A. Foresman, and the singing
of tho doxology by the congregation. The
attendance at each service was large. The
collections taken up during the day, to be
devoted to paying the debt on the structure
amounted to about $1,000.
