SERVICES.

Owing to the threatened storm
the installation services at the
Presbyterian Church Wednesday
night were not SO largely at
tended as could have been de-
sired. Those who did attend,
however, were well repaid, as
the sermon of DR.. Morton was
tender and striking in its struc-
ture and delivery.
The charge to the pastor and
people by Rev. c.. G. Vardell was
simple, earnest and practical, and
that to the people was especially
personal and but for the tender
ness and warm expressions Of
love might have been objection
able. DR.. Morton's theme was
the power and wisdom of Christ's
life. It was the manifestation of
Gods power and wisdom; the at
traction of power to the imagin-
alton of man, the manifestation
of power II steam in the earth,
in the universe, were all portray
ed in glorious language, and then
contrasted with the manifesto
ton of the power Of love in the
redemption of a life from the love
of sin.
The speakers countenance,
radiant with love, his voice ten
der with emotion, made an i'm
preston that will not soon be
forgotten by those who were
present. The part assigned to
Mr.. Vardell, from the peculiar
circumstance surrounding the
occasion, did not give full play
to that tenderness for which is so
noted, but his charge was i'm
pressive and we have no doubt
appreciated fully by the congre-
cation.
Revs. S. H. Isler and P. M.
Mclntire were both present and
took part in the impressive cere-
monies.
Rev. Mr.. FAIRIES enters upon
the responsible duties of pastor
of the Presbyterian church in
this city with the love and
prayers of his people, and
the good will of all the peo-
pie of our town, and we al but
express the hope that his pastor
ate may be long and greatly
blessed of God.

awarC1ng MIN. Their had been a
schism among the Chosen People a few
months before, some of the younger
members of the church having rebe1led
against the authority of the elders,
and the result had been the secession
Of a certain number of the malcon-
tents, who had left Utah and become
Gentiles- Among these had been
Drebber and Stangerson; and no one
knew whittier they had gone. Rumor
reported that Drebber had managed to
convert a large part of his property
into money, and that he had departed
a wealthy man, while his companion,
Stangerson, was comparatively poor.
There was 10 clew at all, however, as
to their whereabouts.
Many a man, however vindictive,
would have abandoned all thought of
revenge in the face of such a difficulty,
but Jefferson Hope never faltered fora
moment. With tho small competence
he possessed, eked out by such employ
ment as he could pick up, he travelled
from town to town through the United
States in quest of his enemies. Year
passed into year, his black hair turne
grizzled, but still he wandered on, a

wholly set upon the one object upon
which he had devoted his life. At last
his perseverance was rewarded. 1t was
but one glance of a face in q window,
but that one glance told him that Cleve-
land, IN Ohio, possessed the men wnom
he was in pursuit of. He returned to
his miserable lodgings with his plan of
vengeance all arranged. 1t CHANGED,
however, that Drebber, looking from
his window, had recognized the va
grant in the street, and had read muir
der in his eyes. He hurried before a
justice of the peace, accompanied by
Stangerson, who had become his pri-
vate secretary, and represented to him
hat they were in danger of their lives
from the jealousy and hatred of an old
rival. That evening Jefferson Hope
was taken into custody, and not being
able to find sureties was detained for
some weeks. When at last he was lib
Grated, it was only to find that Dreb-
ber's house was deserted and that he
and his secretary had departed for Eu-
rope.
Again the avenger had been foiled,
and again his concentrated hatred
urged him to continue the pursuit.
Funds We're wanting, however, and
for some time he had to return to
work, saving every dollar for his ap-
preaching journey. At last, having
collected enough to keep life in him,
he departed for Europe and tracked
his enemies from city to city, working
his way in any mental capacity, but
never overtaking the fugitives. When
he reached st. Petersburg they had de
parted for Paris; and when he fol
lowed them there he learned that they
had just set off for Copenhagen. Al
the Danish capital he was again a few
days late, for they had journeyed on tc
London, where he al last succeeded il
running them to earth. AS to what
occurred there, we cannot do better
than quote the old hunters OWL ac
count, as duly recorded in DR.. Watson:
journal, to which we are already under
such obligations.

KING LEOPOLD of Belgium
has conceded to England a piece
of land liz Africa which will en-
able the English to secure con-
tinuous communication from Cape
Colony to Cairo, assuming that
the Soudanese do not object to
it's passing throughth territory.
Sir Cecil Rhodes hopes to see a
railroad built from Capetown to
the Mediterranean, with England
controlling all Central Africa.
France protests at this ignoring
of her rights in Africa; but pro
testations amount to little unless
they are backed by cannon, and
England will continue to walk
over the rights of her neighbors
until she is called to a halt by
the click of a sentry's rife.
