pline was read as giving the
church's idea of what was to be
understood by the term temperance. which
is defined therein to be the restraint or the
and conscience. The church believing
that her position upon the question Is sus-
tanned by science, agreeing with the Script
ures upon the point. calls upon Its mem-
bers TO conform themselves therewitn.
Mr.. Van Anda read the entire report OF the
committee of fifteen appointed at the last
General Conference to provide ways and
means OF inaugurating @ temperance move
ment In line with the doctrine of the
church and on q basis that all de-
nominations can meet. This report
treated of the practical questions to
be met and overcome IN the prosecution OF
the temperance work and suggested plans

churches. 1t also contained In epItome the
work done by the various denomination

Catholic Total Abstinence Society, and
articles written by Arohbishops Ireland and

The object of the address last night was
the formation Of q Christian Temperance

Quality of Gresham's Democracy.


Looking to Washington we find that we
have q Democratic executive, that to the
House of Representatives has been added
q Democratic senate. And q Republican
wag congratulated the Democrats the other
day that in addition to q Democratic
President. Houee and Senate. the Democrats
also had q majority in the Cabinet. And
it turns out that even the supposed Repub-
lican who was called TO the Cabinet was q
blessing In disguise; | hear 1t every day
that he Is the most Democratic member of
this Democratic Cabinet. And that il he
could have q rest for q day or two from the
Behring sea controversy and the Honolulu
annexation and the Russian treaty. and
one or two other disturbing matters of that
kind, he would turn out of office every
man who had ever eympathized with the
Republican party. Whatever may have
been the fact at the time this witticism was
gotten of, il is q fact that we now have a
Democratic Cabinet from one end TO the
other. in addition to q House. Senate and
executive.

Methodist Church on the Liquor Traffic.
The services at Roberts Park Church. last
night. consisted of an outlining by Rev.
DIR. Van Anda of the position of the church
upon the saloon question and the temper
ance work of the church generally, includ-
ing all denominations and the Metnodist
Church in particular. The Discipline of
that church is very plain and outspoken
upon the question, and treats of II in no
equivocal way. The paragraphs bearing
upon the topic of the evening were read
and explained. the pastor enlarging upon
their intent and purpose. and their scope
in application to everyday life. Every
phase of the question is treated of in the
Discipline. and tho men bers of the church
arc held responsible for the violation of
any of the precepts contained therein.
Paragraph 2i0 of the latest Discipline, as
approved ny the General Conferences at
Omaha. contains an inhibition to buying,

John Pierson and John Martin, among the

getting no more this year for putting up
brick walls than in 1892, and the stone men
tell the same story. The lumber dealers
admit that lumber is 5 cents per 100 feet
higher than last year. but. rs the prospects
of lumber being any lower than now are
very slim. there Is nothing TO be gained by
waiting another year. The lumber men
say that lumber has been advanced only 5
cents here against an advance of IL to Is
cents In the northern pineries. &. {. Foster
states that last year there was q phenome-
nal demand for lumber, and the lumber
nesota were thinned out. AT no time in
the last twenty years has the supply of dry
lumber been as low as at present. and, as
there is no surplus stock. it must be two

"CAMP MEETING JOHNS" EVANGELISM.

Series Of Revival Meetings Successfully Be-
gun at Grace NJ. l.. Church.
Yesterday morning was held. at the Grace
NJ. +. Church. at the corner OF Market and
East streets, the first OF q series of revival
meetings under the direction of Rev. John
T. Naugle. the gelist. of Columbus. o.
AS Camp Meeting John" Mr.. Naugle IS
known in Methodist circles throughout the
country. and somewhat in foreign coun-
tries. He has his own peculiar ideas of the
work In which he is engaged. and is per-
sussive in 1t from his oddities. One of bis
peculiarIties is his dress. in which he studi-
Ously avoids ell clerical appearance. He
wears an ordinary sack suit. and will not.
under any consideration, he says. wear q
white tie.
In 81 explanation of this he told q little in
cidenJ that happened him in one of the
Eastern cities when q boOtblack pointed
bIm olt as q minister. and offered. as proof
OF the assertion, the fact that he wore q
white tie. and from that time on he vowed
he would never be seen with the dis
tinguishing mark. His sermons are not
ermoDs. but talks to the audience which
he Is addressing. and the more effective for
that reason, as he impresees one with the
idea that he Is arguing with him to maln-
tain q cherished idea. His talks are in a
great measure practical applications OF
scripture lessons to affairs OF every day life
by relating incidents of his own life or
others that have como to his notice. and
showing the bearing upon them of the
Scriptures.
The church yesterday morning was
crowded, and again last night its capacity
was taxed TO the fullest extent. No effort
has been yet made TO have persons accept
the faith and enter the church, and here is
whore another of Mr.. Naugle's peculiariti-s
creeps in. He says that no such effort will
he made until a period of ten days has been
spent In prayer. His idea in this Is to
svoid the effect of any undue excitement
and give ample time for sincere conviction
and p~enitence. The meetings will continue
indefinitely. and there Will be afternoon
meetings on Tuesdays. Wednesdays and
Thursdays
St. Paul's Free Of Debt.
St. PauPs Church having at last become
free from indebtedness. the occasion was
made one of thanksgiving at the services
yesterday morning. and a unique ceremony
was performed in burning one Of the bonds
which had stood as evidence OF the church
debt. This being the first time In the his.
tory Of the church that it was absolutely
free and owed no man q cent the occasion
Yhs one of not q little rejoicing. The cere.
hony was made very impressive. One OF
kthe bonds was placed upon the altar and q
4 teper applied to 1t by the sexton. and as the
bond was ignited and consumed by the
flames the congregation arose and Joined
the choir of forty voices in singing the
