St. Marx,s-on.the.Hiehlands.

In making the announcements Rector Fftzsimons said he did not think the pull pit should be made bulletin board when there were so many newspapers in the city to convey information, but some- times he made exceptions to the rule. He then announced the lecture of Col Sumter Lea, which will be given this week. adding that the general interest in the lecture and the prominence of the lecturer was his excuse for making the announcement.
 The rector then entered upon a sermon which was the corollary of his sermon last Sunday, when he spoke of the appeal made by Timothy to the church at Ephe- sus to return to it's first love. Timothy also reproVed the church for it's luke warmeness There is nothing more dis astrous to a church than to fall into a lukewarm state. It is like tepid water nauseating. Hence the Lord said of the church, Tt is neither cold nor hot and 1 will spew it out of my mouth" The church had become wealthy, proud worldly, and hence fukewarm No man can succeed who is not enthusiastic in E his work. A business man once pro- noted clerk because he noticed that the clerk never looked at the clock-he was absorbed in his work and forgot the flight of time. In Robert Elsmere we are told by Mrs. Humphrey Ward or bishop who cautioned his mission ary not to be too enthusiastic But with out enthusiasm nothing great can be accomplished. The word enthusiasm means worthy of God There are people who cast cold water upon every new en- terprise; they see all it's drawbacks and dangers without any of it's possibilities. As individuals can accomplish nothing without enthusiasm, so a church in it's corporate capacity must have enthusi- asm. church should work harmo- niously and enthusiastically. Many church members say that when they take a pew and pay their pew rent they have done all that is required of them, but not so-they should be active, enthusias- tic workers
 The services closed with duet by Mrs q. o. Smith and Miss Cornelia Meade The offertory was taken up by two cho- risters, Masters Humes Rogers and James Stevens.

Monster Demonstrations.

Brussels, July 2S-One hundred thou sand delegates, chiefly from the prov inces. made a demonstration here today against the school bill. They marched in procession behind a black draped car, designed to symbolize liberty of con scious mourners. The crowds along the streets enthusiastically eheered the pro- cession. The processionists and many others assembled outside the town hall, where number of speakers delivered vigorous speeches against the school bill, which evoked loud applause. The au- thorties feared that trouble might re- suit from the demonstration and the troops were therefore confined to their barracks under arms. The precaution, however, was needless. as the whole af- fair passed off in an orderly manner

IRON MARKET.

Cincinnati, July 27.-A steady expan- sion of the iron market in all directions is the significant feature. The expansion applies to production as well as to con- sumption. This leads to a cautionary feeling among buyers, many of whom think the thing will be overdone and that prices will ease up before very long. A careful review of the field would indicate that the increase of production of pig is hardly keeping pace with the increase in finished products. We have recently pointed out that the prospective increase of active furnace capacity between now and January 1 can hardly exceed 4000 tons a. day, or say 1,250000 tons a year. Experienced makers of iron believe that even such an expansion of output will be quickly absorbed by the growing de- mands of consumers. On this head there is difference of opinion, but all recognize that the outcome depends upon the crops, railroad buying and the ab- sence of unsettled features in finances.
 So far as new business Is concerned the market was unquestionably quiet the past week all over the country. The furnaces seem to be glad to see this. for it gives them an opportunity to catch up on old business, some of which is press ing Nearly all the furnaces still have uncomfortably filled order books, and are wanting to see their future engagements run down somewhat DeIOfe making large, new contracts.
 The business that has been done has mainly been in the west, the eastern markets and central west remaining very quiet.
 Prices are firmly maintained all along the line. There have been no further ad- vances reported except in Lake Superior charcoal iron, which has Jagged sadly behind the procession. Hinkle. the largest producer, advanced the price at the close of the week from $13.50 to $14 cash at lake ports Other brands have sold at $12.50 to $13
 Stocks of charcoal iron are being re- duced very considerably, and if the rail- roads place heavy orders for cars this fall there will be furry in this class of pig iron.
 Money is working closer. owing to the increased demands of business. Collec- tions however, are remarkably good, and the tone of business throughout is healthy.

Defender at Anchorage.

New Rochelle, N. Y, July 2S.-For some unexplained reason the Defender did not leave her anchorage off Premium Point today. It was said by the captain yesterday that if the weather was fa- vorable short spin, as far as Captain island, would be taken. The weather was well nigh perfect all day. with a good stiff southeast wind blowing at the rate of twelve miles. Lke yesterday, however, the crew were put through their paces by Captain Perry and showed marked improvement both in setting and taking in sail. The Defender will leave here at an early hour tomorrow morn- ing for Glen Cove, where she will par ticipate in the race for the Commodore cup. Captain Half will meet the yacht at Glen Cove and take command and will sail the race.

Housekeepers Want the Best Food.


 What Scientists say:
 Prof. Arnold of the University of New York: 1T consider that each and every ingredient of oleomargarine but ter or butterine is perfectly pure and wholesome, that the oleomargarine butter differs in no essential manner from the butter made from cream. It is great discovery, a blessing for the poor, in every way a perfectly pure, wholesome and palatable article.
 Silver Churn Butterine is prepared especially for fine table use. Every de- tail of it's manufacture is perfect. Re- cent chemical experiments show that in nutritive and digestive properties Silver Churn Butterine is fully equal to the best creamery butter; while in keeping quality Silver Churn Butterine is much superior

AN ELECTRIC LINE
To Join Jacksonville and St. Augustine b1
 the New Year.


 the New Year.
 Jacksonville, Fla, July 2S.-It is stated on good authority that an electric rail- road from Jacksonville to St. Augustine will be in operation by January l, 1896. The road will be constructed by the Jack sonville and Tampa Bay Improved Rail- road company.
 This company was chartered by the legislature of the state to construct and operate a line of railway from Jackson vile to some point on Jackson bay, with branches running to several important interior towns of the state.
 The company was given a land grant of 1000 acres of land per mile for every mile actually built. The promoters of the company have been looking over the ground and have after some little trou- ble secured the passage of an ordinance by the city council of St. Augustine giving them the right to construct and operate a street railway through the city The incorporators propose to have the work of building the road from this city to St. Augustine begun, and the sur veying corps will start out in few days from the south side of the river

Another Death Charged to Holmes.

Beck, prominen Mt citizen of the adioin-
ing town of Louden, was found hanging
in a room of his house, his legs bent un-

This circumstance and the peculiar man
ner in which the rope was tied around
his neck aroused much suspicion that
Beck had not taken his own life, Holmes,
now in jail in Philadelphia, was rela-

family going then by the name Of Mud

of murder and communicated her sus-
picions to other relatives. No action was
