A Ministers Rebuke to the World.

PhlIaueIphIa heCOTG'
Before the preachers of the Ministerial Union,
yesterday. in the hall of the Presbyterian
Board of Publication, Rev. A. T. Pierson, D.
D., of Bethany Presbyterian Church. delivered
an address directed against the popular sources
of worldly pleasure, such as the theater, card
table, horse race, and dance. The theater could
not be sustained, he said, without ministering to
vice The green room was sometimes as in
famous as the third CIRCLE" which in many
theaters opened into houses of i'll fame. A game
of cards might be innocent, but it was filthy
with the defliug touch Of centuries of gamblers
and piekpockets. The horse race might attract
as q simble exhibition of the beauty and speed of
the noblest of all animals but as an institution
it was an open door to hell. The dance might
be conducted by innocent maids and saintless
men, but as it existed in society it deserved but
one name lascivious." AS an institution in So
ciety Dr. Pierson declared that dancing would
lose its tremendous grip to-morro if it did not
appeal to sexual passion

Vain prie.tcraft's threatenings or cure;
That pride is broken, minds deride
Vile superstition and Its source;
And trnth is sought on every hstd,
Legitimate where'ef ills found;
Not ask ed il source-by Whsse command
But il is viTtuou. ald sound.

And sweater, dearer every day,

AS wisdom grows, so love will grow.
And ioterest in our fellow man;

For such the love Of Jesus plan;
And Or estly power IN vain invokes,
Fanatic zeal and bigot pride;
"The world moves still >" aud giant strokes
OF mental freedom truths decide.
Truth hath no fav'rite child, no son.
No high priest to dispo Sc its power;
'Tis free for all to seek or shun,
In thorny path or pleasures bower;
And thought bestoweth Joy or pain,
In what we are or might have been,
Oft thinking DER our life again.
In blissful hope or hopeless sin.

The Best Metropolitan Paper.

The Tribune bore the brunt Of the
fight ID New York City for Re
publican success in 1884, and performed
it's part so we'll that it begins the new
subscription year with business that
breaks all previous records. 1t sold L.
100000 copies on election week and goes
into the winter with 12l, 900 of the daily
and $4,000 paid subscriptions to the
weekly. net counting the short term
campaign orders. Wherever the Tribune
circulated largely in 1884 the Republic
can majorities were best. Even in New
York City, where almost the entire press
of the city was against it, tho result
shows how nearly it came to being
match to them all. The Tribune may
well be said to stand as the best expo
Rent of Republican opinion in America.
The time has csme for people to provide
theme elves with reading for the ensuing
year. and we specially and heartily COM
mend The Tribune to their attention.
Everyone wants a metropolitan paper,
as we'll as his own local journal, and The
Tribune IL the best. 1t has the news
complete; a valuable agricultural de-
partment: all the best reviews, foreign
letters, fun and literary matter Of the
daily; and several special features for
household instruction and enjoyment.
Now that the holiday season Is coming
on. the premiums offered by The Tribune
as gifts will attract attention. Among
them are Wsbster's and WOrcastsr's "Un-
abridged DictiOnaries"; Woods illustra-
ted Household practice of medicine;

and Ridpath's illustrated History of the

Somewhat Mistaken.


The following or its substance we find
going the rounds of the State Press:
The steamer Van Raalte had close
shave week before last in running from
ChebOygan to Detour. When she arriv-
ed she had four feet of water In her hold
and was unmaRagsable. 1t was a mar
row escape.
1t undoubtedly has reference to her
next to last trip made this season when
she encountered rough weather in max
ing Dstour, but she did not have four
feet Of water in her held, did not become
unmanagsabls and had no narrow es-
cape. The facts are, although the sea
was high, she fully sustained her rspu-
tatioR AZ sea worthy craft and until
she got within half mile Of DetOur did
not have drop of water in her hold,
She was well loaded down and when
turning to make Detour the wind struck
her on her beam and before they could
trim her up she listed over 80 that her
rail was under water and considerable
water run throgh her coal holes into her
hold, but it was only few minutes I'M
til by trimming her this was avoided.
These on board the boat speak in the
highest praise Of Capt. j. W. Browns
management. The item does injustice
to b0thJCapt. Brown and his boat.

Perry VS.. Cheboygan.

The Northwestern Reporter Of Deem
Der 9th contains the full text of the de-
cision of the supreme court in the case
of Perry vs.. the Village of Cheboygan,
carried up from the Chebovgan circuit.
The decision was rendered by Judge
ChampliR. and is too long to be given
entire in cur columns without encroach-
ing too much upon room for other mat
tsrs, but the headings of the decision
show fully the grounds upon which the
judgment of the circuit court was re-
vsrssd and new trial granted, and are
as follows:
LIST. A member OF the board Of water CON-
mssiOners Of the Village Of Cheboygan is not
entitled to compensation for his services as
member of such board, or for extra services
rendered by him voluntarily and without au-
thority from said board.
End. When such member receives war
rant on the Treasurer for his claim for services
as audited and allowed by the Council. and OBJ
tains payment thereof, he cannot claim that he
was entitled to a larger amount than that al
lowed.
In regard to the frst head Judge
Champlin held "that the omission to pro-
vide compensation for the board of water
commissioners in the village charter was
intentional, and any member accepting
such Office must be deemed to have done
so with the knowledge that such seryi-
ces were to be rendered gratuitously,"
and that the circuit court erred in re-
fusing to charge the jury that the coun-
Gil were under no obligations TO make
compensation to any Of the officers of the
corporation, unless the charter expressly
provides that compensation shall be
made"
In regard to the second head the Judge
says: "Ths council audited the claim at
$50. Now, if plaintiff was dissatisfied
with this allowance, he should not have
applied for and received the warrant on
the treasurer aud obtained payment
thereof. He must be held to have acqui-
escsd in the settlement thus made, and
there is no good reason why plaintiff is
not estopped, by accepting payment Of
the amount allowed, from making fur
Their claim for the same services passed
upon by the council" The other justices
cOncurred in the decision.
