CHICAGO'S "MODERN CHURCH."
1t IL to Have q Gymnnsium, Bowling
Alley n n LII


CHICAGO, Feb. IA new church has
been born into the world. 1t all happeneS
at the Bricklayers' Hall last evening in
the presence OF q large number. The
Modern Church." which is to have bath
rooms instead of affairs, a library instead
of incense. a gymnasium instead of a creed
and a bowling alley instead of liturgy,
was formally organized and held its first
service. There was nothing supernatural
at its birth.
The initial sermon was delivered by the
Rev. Jenkin Lloyd JONES' who read Christs
Sci mon on the mount and a portion of the
26th chapter Of Matthew, giving the closing
scenes in the life Of the Savior.
The plan Of operations Of the new church
was then outlined, the intention being to
erect a building which would contain in
it's basement bath rooms, a gymnasium
and a bowling alley. The main floor would
be fitted up as q reading and writing room,
and tables would be provided for games,
&C. On the upper floor would be the au-
ditCrium.
There would be no pastor and no collec-
ton and seats would be free. Meetings
would be held each Sunday and the work
ers would be given an opportunity OF listen
ing to men Of all thought.
Mr.. Jones took his text from the fortieth
verse Of the 26th chapter of Matthew
What would We not watch with me one
hOur!
He said these words were the cry Of a
soul for sympathy. the groan of heart
for companionship. This cry Of the great
teacher in the garden was the wall OF the
centuries and was the most fundamental
thought Of man, the highest privilege Of
religion to gratify.
The movement to establish a modern
church carried with 1t great and prophetic
interest. The church should be established
on the root of sympathy. In 1t all preju-
dices should be buried. The road to SYM
pathy was the near. dear. holy road of
service. The modern church should be the
church Of the Good Samaritan-the Good
Samaritan brought down to the nineteenth
century. The church that did not anything
In this world was not q modern church-not
even an antiquity. 1t was a nuisance and
a stumbling block. and should be put out of
the way. i,
The speaker said that the possibilities of
the new church were alnoet beyond the
power Of description. 1t would make the
millionaire and the beggar equal, who have
an equal need Of good To fail In such un-
dertaking, he said. was a greater glory
In conclusion he said: Build on honesty.
build on helpfuness. then you build on the
everlasting foundation which prophets and
saints have laid in all ages"
Pending arrangements for the erection Of
a suitable ediflce. the church will meet
layers Hall. and the services will be con-
Quoted by popular preachers from all the
churches in turn, arrangements having
been made for pulpit supply"
The people who will attend these meetings
are not the church people and do not pro-
TESS to be. For various reasons they have
held aloof from the churches. But their OBJ
jections have been more against dogma
than religion, and against forms of theol-
ogy more than against Christ.

What Vessel Was tt.

The only late information received at the
Treasury Department concerning the
schooner-rigged steamer which it is feared
may be the Olympia, and which went
ashore on the outer Diamond shoals or
Hatteras on the 18th inst. is contained in a
telegram last night from the light house
keeper to the effect that the masts OF the
vessel were no longer visible The fact that
the vessel was seen drifting toward the
shoals is regarded as an indication that IL
had been abandoned and the crew and pas
sengers taken on by passing vessel at

HE MET "GREEN GOODS, MEN.
Now He Has Less Money, hut More Ex.
perience Than Before.


JERSEY CITY, Nj, Feb 1.-THE third
man from Tennessee in search of green
goods turned up in Jersey City this morn
ing. He is a colored man named Everett
Bell and is from Memphis, Tenn. He was
not so fortunate as his two white prede-
cessors. Lewis and Vaughn, who were res
cued from the clutches of the green goods
men by the Jersey City police last week.
The story he told the police was this:
He said he had recei, ed attractive green
goods circulars. So he gathered together
enough to pay his fare to New York and
$3.50 besides. He came over the Lehigh
Valley railroad and was met by one of the
green goods men at Bethlehem, Pa. He
thinks this mans name was Thos. Walsh
and that he resides at 20 West street, New
York. The man accompanied Bell to New
York city.
Bell was taken to the headquarters of the
green goods men and there relieved of his
money. Bell was very much confused as to
the locality Of the place he went to in New
York and did not appear to be able to give
any definite information on that point.

CHICAGO, Jan. a9.-War measures were
to-day adopted by the Union Pacific,
which announces its intention OF reducing
rates between Missouri river and North
Pacific coast points, whereby passenger
tariffs will be reduced SO from Chicago to
Portland and Puget sound points, $3.50

same rates are put in effect by
the Great Northern and Northern
Pacific, the Union Pacific will make
n further reduction Of 81. The rates
quoted by the Union Pacific are; Port
land and Puget sound, SIS: Spokane. SO;
Montana points, SIS. These rates will
ALLOW the Canadian Pacific only a DIFF
ferential of S, which has already been
refused by the Canadian Pacific.
Evidently the Union Pacific las decided
TO unite with the western roads in con-
test. The Canadian Pacific has
threatened TO make a 81 rate to san Fran
cisco IL necessary to maintain its diff
fcrcntial. A hot fight is expected in conse-
lGcncc OF the Union paciiic's action.
