BARN BURNED.
A Fire In Carmel sunday De.
slrOys q Barn.

Sunday was bad day for a fire:
he wind was high, aud even with good
facilities fighting fire would have
been bad job.
About 10 O'Clock Sunday morning
Teodorrs Benjamin, of Carmel, dis.
covered his new double barn on fire.
The barn was just built, and was
double structure and attached to 1t
was also double wagon house. Alarm
was given and in an incredibly short
short time the whole village of Carmel
and all the inhabitants around were
on the ground, but the only thing
which could be done was to save the
house from catching on fire, as 1t was
the weather boarding of the house was
badly scorched. The barn was entirely
consumed with all its contents in less
than half hour.
In the barn were some farming im-
pliments and some trunks with cloth
ing and cloths and other valuables.
All was consumed. The loss is esti-
mated at about $500, and it is thought
there is no insurance.
Mr., Benjamin had some friends Wis
iting him, and he took them to the
barn to show them how nicely every
thing was arranged. When they left
the barn he locked the doors carefully,
and In less than half an hour after
this the building was discovered to be
on fire.
In the excitement which followed,
two or three accidents occurred, and
a couple of persons got hurt. Charlie
Weisman mounted horse and rode
through the village shouting fire. A
Mr.. Finklestein started for the fire and
ran in the way of the horse, which ran
over him, knocking him down, skin
ming his legs and spraining his ankle
and otherwise ipjuring him. The horse
was thrown down and badly hurt, and
Charlie was thrown distance on the
hard road, and received bad cuts on
his head. Finklestein had to be tax.
en- to doctor.
How the fire started is mystery,
and can only be surmised.

finding seats in the chapel.
The pulpit and altar were orna.
mented with palms and ferns, fitting
emblems of the day.
Five thousand dollars were asked
for by the Official Board, in order to
dedicate the building free of debt, and
more than this amount was subscribed
before the dedicatory ceremonies wer g
begun. Bridgeton churches are re-
markably fortunate in respect of hav-
ing their debts entirely provided for
before they are dedicated. The edi-
fee cost SO, 800.
The morning services began with
prayer by Rev. R. j. Paterson, of
Pennsgrove, which was followed by an
anthem by the choir.
I Pastor Stultz then read thirteen
verses of the S9th psalm.
Rev. L. D. Stultz took for his text,
Genesis 18th chapter 1st verse II am
the Almighty God; walk before me
and be thou perfect"
How these words came to be spoken
was not clearly known, but they were
words full of human sympathy, and
are expressive of the will of God, and
the willingness with which he rewards
the sacrifices of human effort in doing
his will.
The words were addressed to the
patriarch, Abraham, before the birth
of Isaac, and were spoken as in con
firm'tion of Abraham's faith. Abra
ham was the first type of the religious
man, and the first type of the Church
of God.
The lessons derived from the words
and from the character of the patri-
arch and which was made the subject
of the sermon was the simplicity
of Christian duty" and the ''sanctity
Of the Christian life."
The simplicity of Christian duty is
expressed In the words, Walk before
me, and be thou perfect.
The demand was for Abraham to
trust God, and to confide in his power.
He was Almighty God, and was there
fore able to perform whatsoever he
would, and any covenant he chose to
to make to Abraham he was able to
fulfil. Abraham's duty was simply to
walk In perfectness before God. And
this was the simplicity of religion, and
fixed the disposition of moral habit.
Religion does not appear here as a
great conviction, but it was the moral
habit, which begat reverence for God;
which led up to love of God, and to
the service of God.
