Rev. J. w. French Installed.
Rev. }. w. French was formally installed
as pastor OF the First United Presbyterian
church, Friday night He was called to that
place of worship about three months ago,
having been called from Cleveland, o.
At the installation services Rev. DR..
Williamson presided and preached quite
lengthy sermon. He spoke on the free use
OF profanity, of drunkards and peoDle who
would rather utter falsehood than the truth.
AT the conclusion of his discourse
he invoked the blessing of God npon Rev.
French, and propounded the usual questions
to him for the faithful performance of his
duties as minister OF the gospel, The
| members of the congregation, though few
were in attendance were asked II they were
satisfied with their new pastor and would
assist him in his work. They responded by
raising their hands
Rev. f. B. Graham, the expastor, ad-
dressed his successor. He welcomed Mr..
French to his new field of labor. He con-
graduated him and also sympa-
| thized with him. He sympathized with
new pastors because they would encounter
| trouble and perpexties Any congregation
was imperfect, ana in a western city the
PASTORS sailing would not be as smooth as it
was in the east. He congratulated him be-
cause he did not accept a call elsewhere. he
was among great many good people and
would receive much encouragement The
| speaker knew their faithfulness and devo-
| tion. He asked Mr.. French not TO be
but TO also be man himself; not to let
any one suggest to him what
| former minister had done, but
arrange the work for his individual self, and
| do it to suit himself from the dictation of
| the Holy Spirit. Mr. Graham told him that
| the support of a minister was not piece of
charity work. BY all means, he said be
man and stick up for individual rights The

| right to expect one. The laborer was
| worthy of his hire. He was the Lords ser.
want, and not servant of any individual
| member of the church. Therefore, he said,
be man, as there was nothing grander
| than to be good one and preach the gospel
of God.
The Rev. J. A. Henderson made a short
and appropriate address, and stated what
| the pastor would expect of it.
The new pastor was then installed, and the
| Rev. Williamson invited the members of the
| church to extend to HIM the right hand of
| fellowship.
