The mysterious disappearance OF A. L.
Fix, the well known real estate man, is
the subject OF much anxiety. He was on
q visit to his former home in Amba, In
diana. On the 22nd of September he
left for Chi cago, where he spent day
with his brother, and then left for Yakima
over the Northern Pacific, promising to
write to members OF his family from St.
Paul. Nothing has been heard from him
since he left Chicago, but last week the
Yakima lodge OF Knights OF Pythias re-
ceived Pythisn charm which was for
warded by the secretary OF a Texas lodge,
who stated that the charm was taken
from q bootblack, who was mortally in
jured in a railroad wreck in that state,
and that the lad said that he had picked
it up in an alley in st. Paul. kilograms
have been sent in all directions and tho
photograph of Mr.. Fix forwarded to the
chief OF police at st. Paul, but nothing
further has been heard, and it is feare
that he has been murdered. While at
his old home in Indiana he wrote his
father-in law, j. l.. Chamberlain, that he
had settled some long pending business
matters by which he had secured $4,000,
and it is believed that this was the in
incentive for the crime if one has been
committed.

About 8 O'Clock Tuesday morning George
| HARRISON, Jr., who had gotten up to go
cunning, discovered Charles E. Barber's
sash factory to be OIL fire. Soon a large
number of persons were aroused to fight the
flames. Nothing could be done TO save the
factory as the flames spread so rapidly
through the saw dust and shavings and en-
yeloped the building so soon that there was
only time to pull out two wagons, and the
building was soon burned down.
A bucket brigade was formed, as our
town has no fire apparatus, and heroic work
was done to save the adjacent buildings.
Jere Cranes house caught fire but it was
put out and water was used to keep Mr..
Barber's and William Pedrick's houses
from catching. Fortunately what little
wind there was came from the north. If
there had been " breeze from the south a
large part of the town would have been
burned. The Delaware River Railroad
Company's water tank adjacent to the fac
tory was also burned down, but water from
the tank and well was a~dvantageously used.
Mr.. Barber estimates his loss at 81, 900 on
which there was only $1,000 insurance.
The Railroad C~ompany's loss is about 5000
with $3.50 insurance. 1t completely des-
troys MI. Barber's business which he has
labored hard for years to build up and Grip
pies him financial so he will not be able to
resume without very liberal personal aid.
He had Just received a contract to furnish
mill work for thirty houses in Wilmington,
the biggest contract he ever had, and gave
employment to six men, who are thrown
out of employment.
How the fire started is a mystery unsoly-
ed. A neighbor who was up thinks she
saw two men at the corner of the building
when the fire started and heard a wagon go
out of town rapidly soon after. 1t is hard
to believe there is some one fendish enough
to set the building on fire. Zone hard oil
varnishes had been used on Monday and
such have been known to ig4ite from spon-
taneous combustion.
MI. Barber has the symapAthy of all our
citizens and it is hoped he a4ay get aid
enough to rebuild and resun his business
which is needed and an aid tolour town.

hitel tIlt sermon hlr. IOllOck gave
another tenor solo and Mr.. Sinkinson
conducted the collection. Notwith.
standing the stringent times over S7OO
was raised during the day, over 5000
being cash. 1t was all that was asked
for. After W. f. Yeager, the secre-
tary, read a report of those who bad
contributed, Mrs. Belford G. Wood, in
the absence of her husband who is sick,
presented the Church for dedication
and Mr.. Sinkinson pronounced the
words of dedication. The coDgrega-
tion then sang the doxology.
One of the most entertaining parts of
the services was the music by the choir
under the leadership of Miss Mary
Lanning who presided at the organ,
Jos. Clark, Of Camden and Samuel A.
Harker played violins and Mr.. VIM.
Preston, of Camden, and VIM. tanning

CHURCH HISTORY.
Mariners Bethel NJ. z. Church was
built in 1853 and go as a private enter
prise by Jos. Guest, u local preacher OF
note, who was without a pulpit when
Emmanuel Church was taken off the
circuit and given a resident pastor. Mr..
Guest did most of the preaching and
paid most OF the bills for twelve years
while the Church was on the Bridge
port circuit of the NJ. z. Conference.
In 1873 it was made II separate charge
with ]. X. Freed pastor, who renamed
two years. The other pastors have
been Il. 5. Robinson. 1856; j. w.
Laughlin, 1S77-7S; J. l.. Watson, 1879.
S4; j. W. Grant, 1SS5-S6; C. S. Powell
son, ~1SS7-SS; II. J. Patterson, 1SS9-91;
]. H. Clarke, 1S92-94.
The work of tearing down the old
church was begun on March Sth and
the corner stone of the new II laid on
April 18th. The above cut is a photo
graphic likeness of the new church.
The auditorium is 3Sx60 and will seat
about 275 in very comfortable pews of
circular shape. The floor is inclined so
the pastor is always in view and is COW
cred with an ingram carpet of pretty
design. The choir is stationed to the
left of the pulpit. The church is light
ed by two six-!ight rejecting chande-
Tiers.
The Sunday school room in the ear
will seat 100 and windows open it into
the main room. There is also a small
class room to the right and opening by
windows into the Sunday School room.
The tower is 60 feet high and there is a
small tower at the pulpit entrance.
The windows are of pretty designs of
colored glass and either given by fam
lily or in memory of some of our former
citizens.
The church cost about $4,000. About
$500 has been raised and ten or twelve
men have obligated themselves for the
payment of the balance, so there is no
mortgage on the church.

After singing by the choir and invoea-
tion by the Pastor, Nj. Sinkinson read
the responsive reading and Rev. H. G.
Cowan the responsive prayer. Rev. F.
T. Tagg, D. D., editor of the Methodist
Protestant, published at Baltimore,
preached an excellent ~dedicatory SER
mon from Matt. %. 20: "I.o, 1 am with
you Away, ever unto the end of the
world" He said every revelation made
by God pointed to Christ, the center OF
the whole system of redemption. He
was a king in the world but not of the
world and therefore was not under
stood. Other great men have lived
and will be honored through time but
they are nothing compared to Christ.
The Bible was a Kaleidoscope of Chris
tian principles and every turn gives
more marvellous views To the eye and
soul. Christ is seen in the culture and
progress of nations and development
of society. The safety of the nation
depends OF the quality of religion in
the hearts of the rulers. If Christian.
ity depends on ignorance aud supersti-
tion look at the contrast between India,
China, Afghanastain and the culture of
Germany, England and the United
States. Turkey and India sent no aid
to the famine stricken Russians as did
Christian countries which are noted for
philanthropy and charity. Men d
see what they look for any where.
We should learn Christian principles
so that they will live in us and become
a habit. The course of men and things
is made and marked out by some invisi-
bic power. 1t should be a comfort to
Christians to have tribulations which
are the discipline of Christian life. We
have to be taught much by experience,
like animals. Christ is everything and
nothing without him. If you IRE
not satisfied it is because Christ is not
in everything. Whosoever believeth in
him shall not perish but have everlast-
ing life.
