Exodus 25:40--"And look that thou make
them after their. pattern, which was

The speaker referred to the meaning
of Trinity Sunday and the service for the
day and the duties of ministers He
said there was one undying principle in
the church. The unchanged standard
that God himself has fixed for the minis
try. From the beginning, God has laid
the path for them to walk in The truth
is always one and Interchangeable. In the
matter of doctrine there is al says the
direction already laid out. The priest
must follow after His pattern, to admin
ister the doctrine, drive away erroneous
doctrine. He must feel his personal re
sponsibility. He must have this un-
changeable pattern, and must keep him
self from false doctrine, heresy and
schism. The Christian ministry does
not cover multiGude of sins.
To the candidate for ordination he said
Keep before you that Interchangeable
pattern, in the priestly path God will
show you your dangers that you may be
led in the right way. | am glad that yon

SUGAR AWFUL CAPTURED.
The Notorious Escaped Convict is Ru
Down and Arrested.

Down and Arrested.
The desperate negro criminal Harrison
Rothwell. alias Sugar Awful who
escaped from the county Jail at New
Castle where he was serving out SEN
tence of ten years for burglary and as.
sault and battery with intent to kill, has
been captured and will again be safely
lodged in Jail before sunset This evening
where he will wear the leg-irons for the
next thirty days.
Rothwell was captured about 4 o'clock
yesterday morning by Constable James
Unison and Officer Tony Almeda of
Philadelphia in a house on Lombard
street above Twelfth, that city.
Ever since his escape from New Castle
jail Sheriff Allen has done all in his
power to have theldespsrado reeaptursd.
Soon after the fellows escape the sheriff
went to Philadelphia and COM
municated the whole story to
Constable Unison, who is q per-
sonal friend of the the shsritfs, The
constable became interested in the case
and promised to run down and capture
the fugitive, if such a thing was possible.
He Immediately began to work up clues
and for the last two months has tracked
the negro from place to place. The first
clue located him in Camden, and from
thence he was traced to Frank
ford and West Philadelphia 1t was
ascertained sometime afterward that
"Sug' was boarding at house near the
corner os Fifty. seventh and Lyons
streets. but that he had left there very
suddenly, taking with him bran new
suit of clothes. The active negro was
then traced to a house ON Bay street, but
the constable could not locate him
here.
In the mean time Off ser Almeda was
put on the scent and he at once began
TO keep a sharp lookout on the negro
quarter in the Nineteenth police district.
The two officers then gained information
which led them to believe that the con-
vict was living in a house at Twelfth and
Lombard streets. These were the facts
desired, and the officers kept a steady
watch on the house until o'clock yes
terday morning when they decided to
enter.
This was a very difficult task, but it
was finally accomplished and, in dimly.
lighted room on the second floor. the
notorious thief was sleeping as peace.
fully as q child Thinking Of the man s
desperate character, Officer Almeda
fastened the nippers on the wrists of the
sleeping man, and locked them securely
together. Constable Jimison turned up
the light and said, Harrison Rothwell,
get up out of this He opened his eyes
lazily, but instantly discovered his
situation and made frantic efforts to
free himself. Seeing that he had been
conquered and further rebellion was use
less, he submitted and his clothing was
hastily pulled on. He was then taken TO
Moyamensing prison, and Sheriff Allen
was notified. That official left this city
at G so o'clock this morning accom- panied
by Night Warden Harry Ahrens. Taey
will probably return with the prisoner
this afternoon.
Rothwell reached this city at 70. 81
o'clock in the custody Of Warden Ahrens
and was taken to Kelley & Brothers Pre-
cinct House where he will be held unit
the time for departure of the New
Castle train.
