f Wider Lenf and
lis Observance
Why Not General Observance by
All Christian Churches 4?
WAFTINGS FROM THE CHOIRS
Summary of Weeks Progress In the
City Churches-Work of Christian En-.
deavorers and Other Auxiliaries.
Personal Mention of Interest.

During all the Christian centuries It
has been customary in certain churches
for the religious to keep forty days
at this season of the year in remem-
brance of the fact that our Lord tasted
forty days and forty nights in the will
derness. In all the historical parts Of
the Christian church Lent has been
observed, with greater or less rigidity,
as a season of religious discipline, and
in those religious organizations that
have grown up since the reformation,
If Lent has not been recognized at its
former value, an attempt has been
made to secure a periodical observance
which should be used to deepen the
religious life and bring the people to
a consciousness of their sins. The
spirit of Lent has thus been widely
accepted as a right and proper method
of dealing with religious life. 1t lies
between Christmas and Easter, and cul-
inmates in the latter festival, which
is the symbol Of resurrection and i'm
mortality.
Why should there not, therefore, be
n wider observance Of Lent? The OBJ
servance in the Episcopal, the Roman
Catholic and Lutheran churches, and
to some extent in Presbyterian circles,
Is to be counted on, but there are larger
bodies of Christian people who know
nothing about the use of the Christian
seasons, and who have never been
trained to think of their value in Civ
ing variety and strength to a Christian
life. 1t is suggested, with all Difference.
that a large number of people canproht-
ably observe Lent, who have not herA
tofore given 1t attention, and who, 1t is
submitted with equal Difference, suffer
greatly in their religious life from
the want of variety and freshness in the
presentation of the different points of
duty and service.
What a glorious opportunity Is af-
forded to a great many pastors of Meth
odist. Congregational, Presbyterian and
Baptist congregations If they should ar
range among their own people prac-
tical observance of Lent, although not
necessarily upon the lines laid down by
the Episcopal, Roman Catholic or Li-
theran churches. To a pastor endowed
with powers of organization there Is a
field for illimltable work among, and
ipi eiit bSItit vi, tllI VI Ils
congregation. A deepened interest in
practical religion is always sure Ia
come to individuals who keep Lent by
attendance at church and by the more
practical observance of the duties OF
Christian living.
Forms of Observance.
The question of fasting need not
necessarily, be entertained, but there
are other methods by which the young
men, for instance, could be attracted
1t would not be expedient to dictate to
the experienced pastors of Scranton
any duties in this respect, but an in
dicatioR of what could be accomplished
can be given without fear of offense

The village Of Three States Almost
Wrecked-Killod by Lightning.
CArRo, Ill, July 29.-Reports just
received state that on Saturday after
noon a tornado passed over the village
of Three States, situated on the Mis-
sissippi river, forty-five miles south Of
here, on the Missouri side. lightning
struck a shantyboat tied at the bank,
killing the owner, George McClelland,
and wife, and fatally injuring their
three children, who are since re-
ported to have died. Their home
was said to be Kenosha, Wis. At
Barnes Ridge, three miles west Of
Three States, the lightning struck
farmhouse, killing man and wife
named Thomas. The wind came from
western direction and with such ter
rife force that it blew down a huge
smokestack OF the Three States Milling
company's mill Fortunately, the
chimney fell lengthwise with the
building, doing no damage. The tor
nado literally cut swath through the
woods loo yards wide, uprooting trees
and in some instances carrying them
considerable distances.

CONDITION OF TRADE.
Business Outlook Continues to Be En-
couragIng in Every Quarter


couraglng In Every Quarter
NEW YORK, July pr. G. Dun &
Co. Is weekly review of trade says: 1t
is not the season for the tide of bust
ness to rise, but there is not perceived
scarcely any shrinkage except that
which will come naturally with mid
summer heat. The volume of new
business is small compared with recent
months, but large enough to encour-
age more openings Of long closed
works, and more advances in returns
to labor. Important strikes show that
the advance is not enough for some,
but the strikers seem not more threat
ening than week ago.
Accounts of shrinkage in the yield
of wheat come from both Pacific states
and from the Dakotas. 1t would be
strange and unnatural July without
such reports, and yet they have weight
enough this year to lead even the most
experienced to reduce somewhat their
estimate of yield, while the price has
advanced three and one-fourth cents.
Light Western receipts for the week
were not third of last years, and for
four weeks only 5,366,O63 bushels,
against 1858, 619 bushels last year,
strengthen adverse reports, because
the price year ago was about 20
cents lower than it is now. The West
ern movement largely depends on the
export demand, which is phenomin-
ally light, Atlantic shipments for
the week having been--hour in
cluded-only GIL ,561 bushels, against
3,8ls,906 last year, and for four weeks
only 3,50O,5S9, against 9,s65,799 last
year. Corn advanced 1 cent with
wheat, but has since lost all of the
gain. Cotton has remained unchanged
at Z cents, although the latest reports
favor larger estimates of the yield,

other figures
