THEY KNEW MIR. WALL WELL


The Crusaders of IA at their meet
ing last Friday afternoon adopted the
following resolutions upon the death
of Caleb A. Wall, the veteran Eewspa-
per man of The Spy:
Resolved, that by the death OF Caleb
A. Wall, the Temperance Crusaders of
1874 have lost staunch supporter and
true friend, one who, when we braved
scorn and criticisms By going into the
saloons of the city TO try and rescue
from the terrible cause of intemper-
ance our fathers, brothers, husbands
and sons, stood nobly by us and proved
an invaluable helper and Wise coun-
sellor
Resolved, that we will cherish in
grateful remembrance his untiring in
terest in our organization, his ever
ready willingness to aid us by his PRES
ence at our meetings, reporting them
and by his pen doing us service in va
rious ways, often at a sacrifice Of time
and strength.
Resolved, that we place on our rec
ords our appreciation of his fidelity to
the principles Of temperance, his single
ness Of purpose and unswervlng loyalty
to the cause Of the down-trodden and
oppressed. After serving his time and
generation the end of this upright man
was peace
Resolved, that we extend to the mem
bers of his family oar sincere sympa-
thy in the sorrow that has come to
them in the severing the earthly tie
that bound them to him. To them the
memory of this just man slan be
blessed.
Mrs. M. J. Churchill, president.
Mrs. II. C. Grafton, vice president.

THE PRESENT is NOT ALL,
We Should Prepare for Our Future Life
First, Says Rev. Mr.. Cha nberIain.

Rev. A. M Chamberlain of Auburn
N T., formerly pastor of the Church
OF Christ in this city, and who has been
taking the pulpit supply in the absence
Of the regular pastor, the Rev. Roland
Nlcnols ohlciated at the church YES
terday for the last time There was a
large audience present to hear the
preacher, who took for his text Mark,
Vlll S6-Sl, For what shall it profit a
man II he shall gain the whole world
and lose his own SOUL" or what shall
a man give in exchange for his soul?"
With the text before the congrega-
ton, Rev. Mr.. Chamberlain spoke of
the tendency which is before men to
secure temporary earthly profit at the
expense of their religious and spiritual
nature. He appealed especially to bust
ness men, eXhorting them not to be-
come Sodden in the pursuit of their
profit and loss account, but to give
some of their time to the consideration
and contemplation of things divine. No
man should so lose control of himself as
to think for a moment that the pres
ent existence is all; that there is moth
ing in the future to live for When
a man reaches this state, his condition
is pitiable and he should be raised up
by his fellows. There is mercy in ev-
cry place, and mercy with its encour-
aging thoughts, gives even affection a
grace and reconciles man to his lot
So has it been and so will the love
for better things continue to animate
the human breast SO long as there is
world. The mundane, the things of the
earth earthly should never be allowed
to have even a temporary supremacy
in our minds and hearts, but there
should be ever present the love of God
and acknowledgment of his great good
ness God is all good and if we but
trust to his divine wisdom, we will keep
our souls pure and unspotted, and pre-
pare ourselves for the life eternal.
Rev. Mr. Chamberlain has supplied
the pulpit two weeks, and he has won
the interest of his congregation. He
announced at the opening of the ser
mon, that he had something to say, and
was going to say it in such manner
that they could hear it. Rev. Mr..
Chamberlain leaves for his regular pas
torate in Auburn, N. Y, today. 1t is
expected that Rev Mr. Nichols, the
regular pastor, who has been away
hunting in the Maine woods for two
weeks, will return to this city next Sat
urday, and that he will resume his
place Sunday morning, when his par
ishioners will gladly welcome him back.
