MORMON MISSIONARIES.
services in the South End-A KeySsr Paper
TIaWa


As announced in the city papers last
week, there we're services in the "Latter
Day Saints" Chapel, Just below tho city
limits, on the river bank, on Friday, Sat
urday and last evening, the sermons be-
ing by minister from Pittsburgh and
another from Kirkland, Ohio. Services
have occasionally been held in this little
chapel since It's dedication about year
ago. 1t Is a Mormon church, the congre;
cation accepting the Book Of Mormon"
as an inspired work, equal in authority,
and in fact Buperseding, the Bible. All
the preachers who have delivered dis
courses there, however, repudiate and de-
nounce polygamy.
Apropros Of these services, an article
recently appeared in the Keyser Echo,
speaking Of theSadvent of two Mormon
preachers in that vicinity. The Echo says:
"In their preaching, they represented
the Mormon doctrine as being substan-
tally Christian, ana avowed their BELIEF
in the second advent and earthly reign OF
the Lord Jesus Christ. All the objection
able features OF their creed were carefully
keptout Of sight. They declared that, us
a people, they had been grossly misrepre-
sented, and begged the audience not to al
low themselves to be influenced by the
malicious lies told about them, but to re-
Ceive them as friends. They presumed
too much, however, upon the ignorance OF
their audience. 1t contained goodly
number who had read Of the Mountain
Meadow massacre, and the startling revel-
atoms OF Mrs. Stenhouse and others who
have exposed the enormities Of this stu
pendous system OF fraud. Some of these
were able to ask extremely troublesome
ard inconVenient questions. One OF the
audience asked question about plural
marriage, 'We donot preach that doctrine,
was the reply. This was very neat
answer. It was intended TO convey the
idea that polygamy is not doctrine and
practice OF the Mormon church. Most
people know that such q statement would
be false. II Is, doubtless, true that these
two missionaries do not preach it. They
are too cunning for that. 1t would rope
instead OF attracting. The preaching and
practice OF that doctrine come later, when
the convert is safely within the fold
After the sermon Worth George, "a Dunkard
residing in the neighborhood, engaged
them in discussion. They soon found
that he carried too many guns for them,
for they asked to be excused and with
drew. It is safe to say that they made nc
converts among the hard-headed denizent
Of the Ridges"

At the Third Presbyterian Church
Children's Day was yesterday well OBJ
served. The Sunday school room was
handsomely adorned with beautiful bou-
quets, flowers, ferns and hanging baskets.
The programme consisted Of music, songs
and recitations. Mrs. X. I. Hair played
very pretty organ voluntary for the
opening. One Of the grand features Of
the programme was the rendering OF six
choruses by the Third Presbyterian
Chorus Glass, m organization started only
about five weeks ago by Mr.. Otto Jaeger.
Tho singing Of the class was very good,
especially was Mr.. Chas. Xulauf's bass
voice heard to good advantage. Mr..
Iaeger's aim Is to improve the singing in
The church by training the class to sing
the four parts soprano, alto, tenor and
bass, which is q very good idea, and the
other churches might advantageously fol-
low in the same direction. In all Congre-
CATION j singing now there Is too NICh
air and no middle voices. Mrs. Jaeger
presided at the organ.

cnowLEY CONVICTED
OF Prize Fighting, and Gets Two Years in
tho Pen.


Some time ago, when John Crowley,
the Pittsburgh prize fighter, who engaged
In mill with Dillon at Golfers station a
few months since, was confined in the jail
here, he told an INTELLIC ESCER reporter
that the most serious charge OF which he
could be convicted was assault and bat
terry. He seems to have been mistaken.
In the Brooke County Circuit Court last
Friday he was convicted Of feIoniously
engaging in prize fight. A motion by
his lawyer Tor q new trial WAC oYerruled,
and he waR sentenced to two
years imprisonment in the peniten-
tiary at, Moundsville. When Weeden and
Maloney fought in Ohio Weeden was
tried in Columbiana county, convicted OF
making IN afray" and lined s. and
costs. Gov. Wilson, shortly after Crow
ley's arrest, told an lNTEMLaESCER re-
porter that il Crowley were sent TO the
penitentiary he would stay there SO far as
he was concerned, so it may be promised
him that be has nothing to expect from
executive Olenenpy.
Hereafter the prize=lghters would better
