Pulpit OF the Second Baptist Church and
His Arrears Of Salary.
Sometime since trouble arose between Rev.
Madison II. Gaskins, pastor Of Second Baptist
church, and the deacons and trustees Of the
church, which resulted in the minister being
locked out Of the church and prevented from
performing his duties to his congregation
Failing to secure admission in any other way
the clergyman yesterday, through his attorney,
Mr. r. J. Mackey, applied for mandamus to
compel the trustees to open the church to him
| for the lawful meetings Of tho congregation
| and to give the pastor free access To the pulpit
| for the purpose of exercising his office OF
pastor OF the church; also TO enable him to
| preside as moderator over all stated meetings
of the church in accordance with the rules
and discipline established, He also asks that
the trustees be commandeda and required to pay
TO him, by an order on the church treasurer

lected from the congregation.

The Mayors Message.

We publish In this issue the mes
sage Of Mayor Wilson, and every tax
payer will find the article well worth
perusing, 1t can readily be seen that
the Mayor, as the executive head Of
the municipal administration, is fully
alive to everything that portends to-
ward city improvements. He gives
due credit to the efficiency of the
Sanitary Committee. The dog ordi-
nance has been pronounced by him
as "a wise act on the part of councils
in reviving it. His action relative to
the City Passenger railway deserves
the commentator of all citizens.
Everybody will agree that in making
the tramps work upon the city's i'm
provements for the board and lodging
they receive, is public benefit, and
will have a tendency to decrease the
visits of this large class of Americas
improbable citizens. Attention is
also called to the condition of the
highways, and it is hoped that their
miserable condition will be improved
as suggested. The suggestion that
the revenue realized from the sale of
the old reservoir grounds be rein
vested in revenue yielding improve
ments is wise one and should be
carried ont 1t is pleasing to know
that the financial honor of the city is
still maintained. Attention is called
to the scattering condition of the
city's ordinances, which ought to be
placed in more compact form for the
convenience of councils, as they are
now in such a condition as to be
easily lost. The work already revised
and placed in book form, although
having been laid before councils some
months ago, have not been fully con-
sidered. The City Solicitors report,
the report of the Chief Eugineer and
the Gas and Water Department all
ceiYe respectful notice in the message,
and we would recommend that care
fnI consideration OF the message be
given by our citizens, and they will
not fail in coming to the conclusion
that Harrisburg has Mayor devoted
to the interest of the city and its i'm
pTovement.

SOMETHING ABOUT PASTOR, CoNGRE-
CATION, SUNDAY School AND
CHURCH WORKERS.

Bethel A. M. L. church is located
on Short street, and has been used
as a place Of worship by this connec
tion for the last - years. The
present pastor, Rev. Amos Wilson,
is a man greatly beloved by bis con-
gregation and highly respected by
the community. The average at
tendance at services is large, being
attended by class Of people who are
devoted to their religious sentiments,
and at times become very excited in
giving expression to them, as many
Methodists do. The church has
passed through many seasons Of diff
culties, but is at present enjoying
perfect peace and is perhaps more
prosperous than they have ever been.
The disposition to progress has never
apparently been made manifest until
few years back, when, under the
pastorate of Rev. 6. M. Whitten,
the church decided to change their
present location and purchase site
on the north side Of West State
street, corner Of West avenue. Ne
gotiations were entered into and
vigorous efforts are being put for
ward to pay for the ground prepara
tory to the erection of handsome
edi6ce The present place of wor
ship is too small for the need of the
congregation, as its membership
number fully two hundred. and the
average attendance is over three hun
dred, while the seating capacity of
the church is barely this number.
There are many active workers in
Bethel church, prominently among
them being James Douglas, Joseph
SniveIy, ]. II. Farley, VIM. Bond,
James Speakes, Noah Pinkney, Mes
danes SniveIy, Turner, Pinkney,
Jones and Cromwell.
The Sunday school is alive and
prosperous, under the control of the
old veteran and much beloved Joseph
snively, ably assisted by John B.
Sample.
The Literary institution connected
with the church fourshes under the
presiding of J. B. Sample, and taking
into consideration this being the first
year of its existence it compares
tavorably with any of the similar in
stitutlons in the city. 1t has received
much support from members of Wes-
icy Literary, who always kindly vol
unteer to assiat. The existence of
this interchange of talent is as it
should be, and is very commendable
to those who participate in it.
The choir Of this church, consist
ing of J. T. Compton, leader; soprano,
Mrs. L. G. Compton, Mrs. Dills
worth, Mrs, Layton, Misses Katie
Duncan, Annie Steward and Jane
Christy; contraltos, Mrs. L Stewart,
Mrs. Shaw and Mrs. Turner Messrs
J. E. Compton and J. t. Compton,
tenors; bassos, A. Napper, w. Dor
sey and the Harris brothers. Much
discipline and cultivation of voice is
needed in the choir in order to bring
out that melodious harmony always
produced by cultivated voices. The
want of frequent rehearsal is plainly
seen.

The Hon. G. M. Clay thus writes to
the National Stockman: ga good
fat beef's rounds should be cut into
pieces parallel with the bone weigh
ing from four to six pounds, according
to the size of the hind quarter. These
pieces should be sailed by judicious
expert, just as much as would be used
in cooking the same. They should
then be strung with an ordinary meat
needle and Irvine, and hung up in
the smoke house or any dry clubhouse
or attic. These pieces, dried in cold
weather, when there are no flies, are
cut into thin slices and hroiled on the
crosshars over live charcoal. Few
dishes eaualit. All the many ways
of curing beef by brine and condi-
ments are an illustrous example of
the way not to doit,' The method here
set forth saves the whole flavor of the
meat in the correct way, with none of
the juices lost, which may also be eat

Farmers will confer favor by re-
porting the names of any often ders
violating the game laws. Each yeal
there are some greedy parties who be-
gin numbering game far in advance
of the legal opening of the season
Not only is this criminal, selfish and
dishonorable, but it is wanton mean-
ness. 1t spells the sport others are
entitled to share, by making game
wild, and is no amusement whatever
as the birds are too young to make
the hunt other than slaughter.
The prospects for average crop of
grain is very promising, the cool wet
weather of the past week being very
favorable. We do not anticipate u
very large yield, for while the season
has been favorable, there is no ques-
ton but that there will have to be
radical changes in the methods of seed
ing and cultivating land, before the
yields will reach the maximum. tits
an undeniable fact that farmers do not
as u rule, devote sufficient time and Ia
Dor IN the preparation oftheir land, are
not thorough in their methods, nor
give the careful attention necessary to
the quality and variety of seed sown
A prolific soil, even with the most
favorable seasons can not be expected
to produce maximum yield unless
carefully and thoroughly prepared
and with clean live seeding, There
is no question but that the poor tillage
and inferior seed has more to do with
meager crops, than any other causes,
and the fact that the experienced and
painstaking farmer almost invariable
realizes good paying crops is proof of
this.
We are glad to learn that move
mcnt is on foot among some of citizens
to erect cottages on the shores of lake
Minnewaska. No more charmingly
attractive and conveniently situated
summer resort can be found in the
northwest, and that some of our citi-
zens have not sooner made homes for
their families in that strkingly beauti-
full locality is surprising. Shady drives
along the shores OF the lake, lathing
fishing, hunting are among few of
the attractions, aud those in search
of health, pleasure and recreation can
there find II place that offers all the
pleesurs ofthe summer resort, entirely
free from aught that is in the reno
test deyree Objectionable. The lake is
a large clean sheet of water fed by
clear springs, surrounded by bluffs
and shady groves, convenient of
acess and free from the crowding and
inconvenlences Of many more preten-
tious resort. It is indeed charmingly
situated, and there is neither in Min
nesota nor the north west a brighter
fairer purer or more attractive resort
than the beautiful MinneWaska.
