SEVENTH ANNIVERSARY.
Sermon in the Methodist Bpisco-
pal Church Sunday.

The Methodist Episcopal church cele
brated the seventh anniversary of the drd
icaton of its new church Sunday. Th
chance was very tastefully adorned witt
pOlted plants and flowers rhe preachero
the day was the Rev. j. B. Mccullough
d. D., editor of the Philadelphia Metho
dist, who discoursed eloquenlly on the
Mystery of Godluess' from ] Timothy
Ill 16 Without controversy great is th
mystery of godliness. God was mantle
in the flesh, justified in the spi it, seen Of
angels preached unto the Genliles, be
lieved on in the world, received up int
glory" The world is full of mystery
cannot understand, can never be sure OF
anything. Paul comedies the mystery OF
godliness-that is, the mysLeriousness Ct
that divine plan by which God seeks to
make men godlike. If it were not a mys-
terry to our finite comprehension it would
be unworthy of the great God and impos-
sible of belief to finite man, lst-God was
manifest in the flesh. Imagine an in
fntely extended essence which fills all
space. Then imagine that this essence il
endowed with life and that this life is com
pressed into human form and you have 81
hint of the Incarnation of the Son of God.
Some how the heather world gave expires
| sons in all its mythologies to its expecta
tions of such manifestation of God
This manifestation of God is the basal
truth of the christian scheme. 2d-But he
was also iustded in the spirit. Again and
sgain the spirit of God bore testimony
to his sonshir-the descending dove at the
| baptism and the glory of the transHgura
tion scene were not only for the sake of the
| spectators but for his own sake. The
cloven tongues of Pentecost and the de-
scent of the Holy Spirit were to justify the
faith of the disciples in the incarnation.
So that we are not left to the historical
proofs of the incarnat.on-which are as
credible as the proofs concerning Cesar
and Napoleon-we have the spirit he has
given us to whisper assurances Of our ac-
ceptance with God. 3d-He was seen of
angels-lhat is recognized by angels as the
Son OF God, and became the subject of
their holy ministries. These angelic spirits
are sent forth to minister also to the heirs
of salvation. 4.h-He was preached unto
the nations. The gospel was intended to be
universal religion and forthwith the
disciples went everywhere preaching the
gospel-this the church is doing to-day,
The need of the world now is for saved
men and women eyerywhere-in the
family-the shop-the store-the mine to
preach Jesus the Sen Of God. Every
heBrer is a divinely constituted preacher
''let him that heareth say come" 9th
Believed on in the world-there is no
greater mystery than this. Think of the
millions who worship and hang their hopes
upon a man who was cruciaed nineteen
hundred years ago. 6.h-Received up into
glory-there he lives to intercede for us
The sermon produced a marked impression
on the large congregation. Next Sunday
morning the Rev. James Morrow, D. d
secretary of the Penna. State Bible Society,
will preach.

TWO WORTHLESS !
TWO IMPORTANT ARRESTS
MADE SUNDAY MORNING.
PEOPLE WAYLAID ON The STREETS
The Night Police Seem to Have
Old Offenders in Custody-A
Glue to Other Unlawful
Acts.
,OPLE WAYLAID ON The STREETS

AT about one o clock yesterday morning
a Polish man with blood streaming down
the side Of his face from an ugly wound on
his head ran up to Policeman Jacob Davi
on NJ ain street and begged that Il search b.
M de for two young men who had brutally
assaulted him at the lower end of the
street.
Davis was directed to "the rocks" and
was joined while on his way there by
Policeman Williams After watching
about an hour the police located the parties
wanted in one of the row Of houses on
the rocks that faces the Lehigh Valley
railroad. Warrants were secured from
Squire Williams and tho two policemen
entered the hou.e with the man who had
been beaten. Two tall and well built
young fellows were found IN bed. They
were brothers, known as Chris. and
Michael Mack, and they we're recognized
by the victim and two friends. The slight
resistance of one of the men was soon
overcome and the two were placed before
Squire Williams.
The victim of the assault and his two
witnesses swore that when on their way
home trey were accosted by the Macks
and fight ensued during which the latter
resorted to throwing large pieces Of rocks
and the complainant was severely cut on the
head.
The accused stoutly denied their guilt,
but the evidence was of such character
that Squire Williams felt justified 10 COM
mitting them to the lookup. Subsequently
each furnished $500 bail for trial.
The police say that lately frequent re-
ports have been made of highway assaults
and robberies in the neighborhood of "the
rock" but they have been powerless to act
on account of the victims being unable to
Identity their assailanis. The perpetrators
have made a practice of lying in wait for
drunken Poles and Huns going home. Ii
the victims are too drunk to fight they are
robbed without ceremony, but if they are
able to give resistance they are tapped on
the head with billy" sand bag or piece
Of rock and put to sleep" until the high
wsymen get a chance to so through their
pockets The Mscks, say the police, have
been under suspicion for some time and it
is believed that they can be convicted in
the present case The victim and his wit
nesses we're under the influence OF drink,
but they were sober enough to identity
their assailsnts and tell straight stories tc
the squire.

LAST DAYS OF LOPPY.


The Murderer win Probably Be Flee.
trocut"d TL-BIorrow Morning.
SING SING n. Y, Dec. THE indl-
cations to-dav are that Martin D. Loppy
who await death in Sing Sing prison,
will be called upon to meet it to morrow,
at daybreak. There seems to be no
doubt that ne will bear tho ordeal with
the same fortitude that has characteri zed
the conduct OF five men who have pre-
ceded him in the fatal chair He is
cheerful and comparatively happy.
The Rev. Mr. Law, Chaplain of the
Tombs and Rev. Mr. Edgerton Chap
lain of Sing Sing prison, have spent
most of the day with tho conde mned
man administering to him the spiritual
comfort he seems to welcome. He has
become a devout Presbyterian, although
prior to his confinement he was an inf
del. He no longer expects pardon, as he
was told by Rev. Mr.. Law yesterday
morning that Gov. Hill had refused to
grant it.
He has repeatedly said that he would
not accept n Communication of his sem
tence to Imprisonment for life, and does
not desire n respite. He is docile, and
has never given the keeper any trouble,
and all the prison officials agree that he
is mentally far superior to any of the
mon who have thus far suffered the
death penalty in Sing Sing.
Loppy still affirms he is innocent of
the crime The Rev Mr.. Law says that
he believes the condemned man is hon
est in his assertion, and that he has not
the faintest recollection of having killed
his wife and sister. His reasons for the
belief are that Loppy was stupidity
Il of hn tir,,a hof ha !,
1ect to epileptic fits, the result In losses
of memory.
The preparations for the funeral have
oil been made and four deputies and
four witnesses are here They are
Isaah Fuller and Prison Physician J. r.
Branscom of Dannemora Prison; Prof
Laudy of Columbia College, one of the
State Lunacy Commissioners, and the
Rev Mr.. Law. The Dannemora officials
are here to get points preparatory to tn g
execution of Cal Wood who avail is
death within the walls of that prison.
Warden Brown has drawn the dead lin g
about the prison, and will use the sam e
precautions to insure secrecy that he en-
ployed the other time.
The witnesses will be met at the de-
pot and taken to the prison in his pri-
vaUe conveyance, and hauled back after
the execution in the same manner, in
orderito prevent newspaper men from
having access to them. He positively
! refuses to give the names of those who
have been invited. The only sign to the
outer world that the execution ha s
taken place will be the flag that is
hOisted rs soon AS It Is over. 1t has been
determined that two, and possibly three
contacts will be had, as was the case
with Wood, Jugiro, Slocum and Smiler.

A Gum Boot Case

The collecting Of old gum boots to keep
the half dozen cheap. Polish shoe shcps
in town supplied has been pushed with
such vigor the past few months the articles
are almost at a premium and, in conse-
quence of this, some enthusiastic collectors
have not been particular a. to whether the
boots that have strayed within their reach
have been old or new, and where new ones
have joined the collection it has been with
ont the knowledge of the owner. Scores OF
miners in the First ward have complained
Of losses to Squire Monaghan. 1t is the
custom Of the majority Of miners to take
of their boots before entering their houses
and leave them at the steps, outside. Sew
ersl have complained that they have hardly
dropped the boots before they have mys-
teriously disappeared. This has been ac-
counted for by the fact that peddlars have
been encouraging boys to bring them all
the old gum boots available On Saturday
a First ward Pole reported that pair Of
gum boots he had worn but a few days had
been stolen. Constable Toomey found the
boots in the possession of Mike Kupper,
Jew peddler who said he purchased them
from boy for four cents. Kupper was
held on a charge of receiving stolen goods
and will he given hearing tonight. He
promises TO produce the boy who sold the
boots to him,

THE LILY OF THIS VALLEY.
AL rHE NEws ZOE oNE cRNT.

General William Lilly is being
aged to present himself at the next
Republican State Convention as a
candidate for Congressman-at-Large
and we sincerely hope that he will do
80. We can think OF no more suitable
or stronger candidate, and do not hes.
itate in saying that he is the strong
est man that could be named in the
anthracite coal fields. Gen, Lilly ie an
honored and respected gentleman, and
his name is known in every house
hold of this section. We envy Mauch
Chunk in the possession of such a
man and will do all in our power to
help place him in the position the
thriving little town would have him
strive for. AS a Republican Gen.
Lilly cannot be challenged, and as a
man of personal character he stands
equally high. We feel confident that
he would sweep this valley, for his
record in connection with the Miners
Hospital at Fountain Springs is such
Slat the miners in this section could
not withhold their support from him
without suhjectiug themselves to a
charge of base ingratitude. Gen.
Lilly was one of the original projec-
tors of the Miners Hospital at Fouu'
tain Springs, has been its unwaverlng
friend since its establishment, and is
now the honored president of the
noble institution. 1t is the policy OF
the miners to stand by their friends
and, therefore, we say amen ~ to the
suggestion of Gen. Lilly as candi.
date for Congressman-at' Large.
