PROOFS OF RESURRECTION.
They Are Subjected to the Tests OF
Modern Courts
Modern Courts.

Rev. William Il. Moreland, rector Of ST.
Luke's. Church, preached to very large
congregation. Rev. DR.. Renonf of New
HAMPSHIRE assisted in the services. Mr..
Moreland preached on the proofs OF
Christs Resurrection, his text being Acts
j:3: HE showed himself alive after his
passion by many infallible proofs"
He said the dOctrine of our resurrection
depends on the fact that Christ rose. II
that fact is untrue Christianity is untrue.
If Christ did not rise we shall never rise
then preaching is in vain and faith vain
then the Gospel is a myth; then let US te ar

substitute for them "Obliteratlon, annihi-
laiion."
On the other hand. if that fact is true all
the rest is true. If Christ rose we shall
rise through him. That truth established
all the supernatural facts of the Gospel
are made sure.
MIR. Moreland swore in the immense con-
gregation before him as a jury, tried the
case before et'rnal truth as q Judge and

AN ANNIVERSARY.

at Simpson Church.


at Simpson Church.
The pulpit of Simpson NJ. E. Church was
occupied last night by Rev. DR.. FL. C.
Thomson of Cambria. Cal, an old class
mate of Rev. DIR. Hirst, pastor of the
church. DR.. Thomson took his text from
Isaiah X 10: Comfort We. comfort ye.
my people, saith thu Lord"
He said that the introduction to the
great oratory of Messiah was in these
very words, and strange to say it is q pas
sage in Scripture especially attacked by
modern enemies Of the BILE, though fully
cOrroborated by the prophecies it con-
tains, and is worthy OF all confidence.
AnalyZing the passages in the text be ex-
planned it under three headings. The first
was the finished warfare of the church,
seen by the eye of inspiration in a Iis-
tant future, and inspiring 'ourage in every
Christian undertaking The second con-
slderaton was pardon of sin, removing a
great obstacle felt by every true Christian
heart. In the third view he repeated an
other portion of the verses, as follows:
For she hath received double at the
Lords hand for all her SINS" which, the
speaker held. indicates that the Christians
feeling OF guilt Will be. not the measure of
punishment he shall receive. but the
mniety of the blessings in store for him.

afternoon by burglar, who broke open
trunk in one of the servants rooms and
stole two gold watches. The Judge and
his family were out OF town, and the girl
whose property was stolen was paying a
visit. When she returned she found the
contents of her trunk scattered about the
floor and her jewelry and watches missing.
Leaving the looted apartment she ran o

unable to turn the knob, which she Is sure

The case was reported to the police and

FRENZIED WITH FEAR.
A Mexican Tinsmith Makes Use of
His Revolver,

A street quarrel that for time threat
ened to end in bloodshed occurred last
night at the corner of LON bard and Stock

named Francisco Y uda became involved
in u dispute with one Of the residents in
the vicinity. and voiced his anger in fiery
epithets. In return he was pelted with
stones, and fearing that he would be
kille he drew his revolver and fired. He
says that he fired above the heads of the

Says that Yuda tried to shoot him and his

1t would be hard to imagine more
slfeless or stupid political gathering than
the Democratic county convention yes
terday. The delegates went through the
performance in listless and perfunctory
way, as If they regarded the time spent
IN it as absolutely wasted. The Free
port delegation TOOK 40 little interest
that it did not put in an appearance
at ali. Even Alexander Higgins was
dull There was momentary interest
when the sheriff matter came up, but
even then there was nothing that could
be fairly called enthusiasm The pre-
dlction that the candidate would be
elected made no impression, the dele
gates evidently recognizing it as an
effort merely to wake them up and infuse
little life into the convention, and re-
fusing to be affected by it, Outside of
sheriff, there was not single contest,
unless it was to avoid nomination. A
committee of five selected most of the
nominees, and the convention ratified
them without any delay, fearing appar-
emily that some of them might decline
If given chance. The thing uppermost
in the minds OF the delegates seemed to
be to get through and get out.

ANOTHER SWINDLE.
This Time the Bid is Made for the Money
of Those Who Take Chances in Lot
teries.

A novel and dangerous swindle is be.
ing attempted in this part of Maine. The
lottery craze has not died out by any
means. and there are many people here
about who are known to have been more
or less interested in small lottery ven-
lures in the past. Several of these per-
sons have recently received packages of
one hundred and fifteen lottery tickets,
duly numbered and registered, as il
coming from the Honduras Lottery Co.,
which has headquarters in Louisiana.
Everything seems straight about the
tickets except the letter which comes
with them. This letter suggests the
"green goods" circular. 1t sets forth
that the price of these tickets is one dol
lar apiece and asks the receiver to sell
themfat that rate and remit 1.-THE money
by expresseto New Orleans. to given
address Then there is confidential
passage in the letter which says that a
certain double ticket, separated from
the Others by being enclosed IN an envel-
ope,r OF special Importance. The re-
celver is advised to cut it in two, give
half to a bosom friend and keep the
other all himself. The writer Of the let
ter claims to be in a position to know
that this ticket is likely to draw S., 900.
Some of those who have received the
tickets and this letter, consider the swim
die dangerous. Lottery tickets are quite
easily disposed of by those who know
the people in the habit of buying chanc-
es; and the story of the IS, 900 while very
gauzy is liable to attract

Mr.. Fred M. Plaisted :, of Augusta, who
was turnedsdown at the Democratic State
Convention when he aspired to be state
committeeman from Kennebec, in favor
Of Mr.. Bean, member of the Plum Trust,
doesn't appear to be inclined to take his
defeat quietly. In his paper, the New
Age, he shows pretty conclusively that
his defeat was the result of the pernic-
ious activity Of the Federal officeholders
Of Kennebec. Mr.. Plaisted makes out
good cause for rebuke from the Presi-
dent, under his civil service order, but
that order, we suspect. has fallen into

Hill apparently reached the limit of
resistance to the income tax yesterday.
All his amendments were voted down,
and his motion to strike out the whole
clause was defeated. This practically
assures the passage of the income tax by
the Senate. and there is no prospect that
the House will strike it out of the bill,
for with the majority there it is the most
popular feature of the bill. The West
aud South are for it. The East is viol-
emily against it, but its opposition
amounts to nothing as against the West
and South. The protests that have come
from New York have. we imagine,
rather strengthened the sentiment of
those sections in favor of the tax than
weekend, because they have shown that

A few newspapers are strong in their
condemnation of Senator Hill because he
insists upon the entire abandonment of The
income-tax proposition. now such a prom
inent feature in the tariff bill. Some Of
these critics will have it that Senator Hill
Is insincere in this matter and that If The
income-tax feature were stricken out Of the
measure he would still be found with The
oppOsitiOn-not because he believes in the
principles to which most of those in the oppo-
sition are pledged. but because he desires
TO embarrass the President and to discredit
him and his supporters whenever an oppor-
tUnity to do so presents itself In company
with the criticism is a great deal of abuse
and many threats. The senior Senator from
New York and other democrats who agree
with him TO the tariff bill and its income
tax appendage are informed that .he country
IS only waiting for chance to spring at
their threats and put a stop forever to their
political usefulness or mischief; it all de-
ponds upon the point OF view. As matter
OF fact, the long end OF the argumentative
lever is in the hands OF those democrats
