If the good fellowship and true
christian cooperation which now exists
between the ministers of our city, IN
their union services now being held,
can only be perpetuated, the good that
can be accomplished in the next twelve
months, will be the wonder and admir-
alton of all God-fearing men and
women in the country. No church.
creeds or doctrines are upheld; none
are denounced; no methods or circui-
tous roads are prescribed or circum-
scribed by certain inexeriable creeds
and dogmas as the only way to saliva
ton; but the simple doctrine of Christ
as he talked to the multitudes. Let
the same doctrine be preached from
every pulpit, when each minister re-
turns to his own flock. You all worship
the same trinity. Why uphold or de-
nounce creeds from the pulpit? De
nouncing the creeds of another church
will not, and does not, elevate yours.
Brilliant. brainy, deep thinkers are
found in every church. Different con-
structions are placed upon the same
passage of scripture. But, who is
right? Has. the member of any par
ticular church right to say that his
belief is right and the other wrong,
when other churhes contain thousands
mentally his superior, and morally his
equal? Let each and every one wor-
ship his God as they understand his
teachings, and say God-speed all other
denominations gathered together in
His name. ''ln my Fathers house
are many mansions. ''Come unto me,
all We that labor and are heavy laden
and 1 will give you rest" For the
Son of Man shall come in the glory of
his Father, with his angels; and then
he shall rescard every man according to his
tDOrk.

Sheep and Protection.

In free trade Great Britain, which is
the wool market for all countries, there
were in 1856 S3s sheep to the square
mile. In the United States texcluding
from this area the territory of Alaska)
there were in 1885 16 sheep to the
square mile. In Pennsylvania there
were in 1885 80 sheep to the square
mile, and in Ohio lie. So it would ap-
pear that sheep husbandry flourishes
better without protection than with it.

That Ingalls, Letter,

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3l.-A Star reporter
yesterday repeated to Senator ingalls, a
copy Of the letter relating to President
Cleveland, said to have been written to
a friend in Kansas City, and asked if it
was genuine. After glancing at the
letter Senator ingalls, replied: "It was
written in 1885, within three weeks
after the inauguration of President
Cleveland. While l do not recall the
letter or the name Of the person to whom it
was addressed, it was apparently written
to personal friend and seems to have been
improperly procured and published. The
President had just assumed his Office, and
1 was simply giving my impre sslons to a
friend"
The Senator added: "But don't think
the President has stood the racket. He has
failed to improve his opportunity"

 CHAABERsBURa, Penn, Oct. 1S.-A fatal wreck occurred on the Cumberland Valley railroad near Shippensburg this morning. Trains No. 14 and No. @ collided at sharp curve in the road telescoping the cars and completely denolishing the engines. Both coming south, received orders at Newville to run to Shippensburg and pass No. IA. The conductor of No. IA says he received orders at Shippensburg to run to the 37-mile siding between Shippensburg and Newville and meet and pass No. g. Acting on these or ders he left ShippensburR and within three miles met the on-coming train. The engin- eer of No. IA saw the smoke of the train around the curve and shut off steam and ap- piled the air brakes, but before he could stop both trains came together with crash. The engines interlocked, the boiler of one being driven over five feet into the other. The express cars on both trains were driven back and completely telescoped the baggage cars. Baggage Master Charles Bitner of Harrisburg was caught between the cars and so horribly mangled that he died in 8 short time after being cut out of the wreck. Conductors Linn and Bowman are both seriously injured and many of the passengers received injuries though not serious. The mail cars caught fire and considerable of the mail was de- stroyed.
 Among those injured are Alexander Linn, conductor; George Bowman conductor of the east bound train; William Hysson and Jacob Fuller, engneers of the respective trains. and Harman B. Binkman, mail agent. Several members of the Quintette club of New York, names not learned, more of less injured. The wounded are being cared for at Shippens- burg.

CHICAGO. Got. 1e.-From all appearances the gigantic pig lead trust has burst and with it the great firm of Nathan Corwith & Go. For some time past prices of lead have slowly but surely begged upwards and a trust headed hy Corwith & Go. has been cur rently reported in newspapers as being un- der the upheaval. The firm is represented in Chicago by Nathan Corwith, jr. The senior member lives in New York, The im- mediate cause of the collapse of the firm was the refusal of the Union National bank of Chicago to further extend the time on over drafts to the amount of $s9, ,000. The sum is said to represent but very small portion of the firms indebtedness to the bank and if only climax to long series of overdrafts ta pay margins to sEstain the trust.
