NATIONAL SECURITY.
A Patriotic Sermon Delivered by Rev.
J. Il. Miller Last Evening.
THE PROSPERITY OF THE UNION.
Wonderful Growth of the Church Dwelt
Upon by Rev. 7. ]. Leak.
SOME OTHER MIDSUMMER SERMONS.

A large congregation followed Rev. J. ID.
Miller through "Our National Security
last evening at the Buena Vista.Street M. Z.
Church, Allegheny. During his interesting
sermon be said: "But few hours slnceWe
celebrated the Hath anniversary OF our ha-
tional independence. 1t is behtting that we
give thanks to Almighty God Tor the pres
ervation of our Union; that we invoke Ills
protection and guidance for future years,
and that we consider what will insure our
perpetuity."
After referring to the prosperity OF the
union, the pastor remarked: Legislation,
unaffected BY the development Of mans
moral nature, was not able to preserve the
existence OF the earlier nations. We have
repeated instances in history where sab
iects, regardless of framed rules Of order,
reyolted and caused the dissolution
of governments. If it be urged
that this would not occur in our democratic
government, that such is the history In
oiiyarchies where the lew legislate for the
MANY. or IN the absolute monarchles. where
the iron hand of despotic rule solely op-
presses the people, we cite the Roman and
Atbeuian republics. In these the voice ot
the people had to do with the laws under
which thew lived. Yet these laws were not
able 10 sustain their existence.
1.-THE inculcation of moral principles has
to do also with the right observance of law.
While we seek TO develop our natural re-
sources, increase our wealth, and reach
higher perfection in literature and art, let
us not forget that the nations safeguard
against corruption and dissolution can alone
be secured by the development Of the diVln-
ity in humanity"

CHRISTIANITY AND PATRIOTISM.
Rev. C. Z. Locke snys Love OF Country i'
the National Religion.

Rev. C. Z. Locke snys Love OF Country is
the National Religion.
'tIs Christianity Our National Religion?"
was the subject of a sermon appropriate 10
Fourth of July, by Rev. Charles Edward
Locke, pastor Of the Smithheld M. z.
Church, last evening. The reverend speak
er's remarks were intended 10 show that
without religion there could be no patriot
ism, and religion was at the bottom OF the
old fashioned Fourth of July celebration.
Mr.. Locke said:
eve NAV be excused Tor the exuberance
manifested on the FouIt tn of July, because
we are not much more than 100 years old.
Within the echo of the shouting and the
gladness Of happiness over our natal holi-
daE, we are assembled here to determine
the relations existing between the celebra-
ti6n and Christian religion. We can find
relations extending back Tor hundreds Of
wears between nations, and the holy Sab
bath school and its conquests. What is
patriotism without religion? No patriotism
ever degenerated where the peo-
pie sung the praises of Al
mighty God. Without religion it is
impossible for nation to perpetuate ITSELF
1t makes q nation homogeneous In poll
tics men NAV not be inimical. Philosophers
if a nation has any, men gather around the
shrine and grow TO like each other and the
love for their country. Religion makes
them strong and their country is second in
their hearts.
"Our nation has barely passed the one
hundrefth milepost and it has never been
SO prosperous, or the outlook encouraging,
but have all a national religion? I think
we have. The first amendment to the Con-
stitution of the United States, says no law
shall be passed that will try to regulate re-
ligion. The President of the United
States fixes day for the people to
assemble and worship Almighty God.
The Declaration of Independence de-
cIared that men had a right to worship
God. At the Constitutional Convention,
the proceedings opened with PRAYER and
from that day down to the present, the Presl-
dent and all other officers are inducted into
their Offices by oaths. In the courts of
Justice, witnesses are sworn to tell the truth,
the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
Our Christian religion inculcates q sense OF
true government in the hearts of the people.
Patriotism Just as far as it goes is religion,
and no one can be religious without being
patriotic"

EIcoDEMUs IN HIS TIMES.
DIR. Patterson, of Erie, breaches In the Third
Presbyterian Church.

DR.. Patterson, of Erie, breaches In the Third
Presbyterian Church.
Rev. J. G. Patterson, formerly pastor of
the Park Church of Erie, preached last even
ing in the Third Presbyterian Church, Sixth
avenue. A union service of the First and
Third churches was held to hear the noted
divine, and there was large crowd in at
tendance.
The subject of DR.. Patterson's sermon
was, "Nicodemus and an Inquirer in His
Times" He made three points in opening
his address. He said the general inquiry
of to-day among people is in regard to re-
Iigion. 1t is remarkable that a similar
train of influences existed in the times of
Nicodemus and to-day. There is a large
reserve OF favorable convictions, he said, to
Christ and Christianity. 1t does not openly
declare itself until compelled to do so by
the same juucture OF affairs; to recognize a
solid basis OF established truth as the start
ing point to further inquiry.
In his second point, be said people should
deal with realities as il they were realities,
and third, to come direct to Jesus Christ,
the light anG life of all things. In conclu-
sion, he asked his hearers to accept the
divine realities for what they are.

AN EDUCATIONAL AWAKENING.

More Money for Country Teachers and More
Months of School.
An educational revival has struck the
Southwestern portion OF the country. Moon
township has increased teachers salaries %
a month, and decided to have eight months
school each year. The borough OF Coraopo-
lis has seen Moon township and gone 1t
one better" by hiring music teacher VINO
devotes one day a week to teaching melody.
1t has served another purpose as well, VIZ:
The preventing of the borough stagnating
for want of fresh grievance. The kick mas
already been organized over the increase ot
the millage for educational purposes from
9 to 10 mills.
There are some people in the place, how
ever, who can look forward and get some
honey ont of the rod. What prevents de-
velopment at present is the high prices at
which lots are held, and the optimists reason
that growth will come from high taxes,
which will force some of the landowners to
sell their lots at something less than city
rates.

Practical Jokers Who Probably See Fun
In n Thing Of This Kind.
Some practical jokers, residents of the
Hill, who are now fishing on the banks Of
Lake Huron, were the cause of a rumor yes
terday that Patrick Donahoe and Squirrel"
Little, two well-known glassworkers of this
city, had been drowned while fishing in the
lake. 1t was stated that d. j. Boyle. can
didate Tor County Commissioner, had re-
ceived a telegram to the effect that the
young men had been drowned, and their
bodies would be sent home.
Upon investigation it was found there was
no truth in the report. Donahoe's parents
live on Shingis street, and his mother was
prostrated when she heard of the report
She rushed to Esquire" Boyle's Office,
where she found the report was a joke.
Little lives on Webster avenue. Both

TO Catch Burglar.
Squire Love. Steubenville, O., was in
this city yesterday after wife-beater. He
caught his man and started with him for
home. The Squire is persistent man and
when he goes after criminal. sticks to the
trail until he finds him. A few weeks ago
a burglary was committed in Steubenville,
and the crime was saddled upon man who
left town just about that time. Squire
Love got warrant for the man and took up
the trail, which finally led him to Northern
Michigan. Squire Love could not locate
the man, but knew he was in the neighbor-
hood. To while away the time, and for the
purpose disarming suspicion, the Squire,
who is an enemy of liquor, started on tenn
perance crusade through the small towns
One evening the Squire was holding forth
in church. He had made stirring speech
on behalf of temperance, and in response to
his earnest appeal for pledge signers the
man he was looking for, moved to tears by
the 'Squire's eloquence, stepped to the front
and inscribed his name on pledge card
As the man turned to the Squire to shake
hands, the latter deity slipped pair of
cuffs over the burglars's wrists, adjourned
the meeting, and marched off in triumph
with his prisoner.

CALLING IN VAIN FOR LIGHT.
Rev. MIR. Donehoo's Congregation Cou
NOT Worship for Lack of Gas.

Rev. MIR. Douehoo's Congregation Could
Not Worship for Lack of Gas.
No services were held last evening in the
Eighth Presbyterian Church, of which the
Rev. E. R. Donehoo is pastor. 1t was not
the fault of either the congregation or the
pastor. The church had no light. Water
had been allowed to choke the main of the
West End Gas Company, which supplies
the church. When the situation was learned,
Rev. Mr.. Doneboo went at once to the gas
works and asked to have the main pumped
out and gas supplied, but he reported that
t manager refused to pay any attention to
the matter.
The congregation was compelled to dis
perse, after holding an informal meeting
and agreeing to take some action to get
light elsewhere. Rev. Mr.. Donehoo says
that the people have been similarly situated
many times.

He Offers TO Work for Nothing, but His
Fellow Employees Kick.
Allegheny City has rich young man
whose life is burden to him because he has
nothing TO employ his time. A happy
thought struck him week ago, and going
to the proprietor of a mans furnishing
store, he offered his services without recon-
pense. He had enough money, but he
wanted work. His offer WAS accepted.
The Young fellow enjoyed the change for
a few DAYS, until his fellow employees dis
covered he was working without pay. They
at once held an indignation meeting and de-
cided that they would be ruined by the
cheap labor of rich men. A vigorous pro-
test was made to the proprietor of the store,
and to avert a strike he sent a note yester-
day to the Alleghenian telling him his oc-
Gu patton was gone. To-day the young man
will again start out to search for an object
in lite.
