STRONG WAR SERMON
DELIVERED BY REV. CHARLES II.
ELDER, A WELL-KNOWN MINIS
TER OF BRIDGETON.

Bridgeton, May 3.-Rev. Charles II.
Elder, pastor Of the Commerce Street
Methodist Episcopal Church. of this
city, preached a strong war sermon
Sunday night He prefaced his dis
course by stating that his object in
preaching on the war was to arouse the
peoples patriotism by showing the
righteousness Of the conflict. In the
course Of his discourse he said: This
war is not war for conquest, but for
humanity, and a God of Justice, who
hates oppression or the Oppressor, will
surely give us the victory.
"If there are oppression and Oppres-
sors there is a God of Justice. Spain's
history OF cruelty and bloodshed is un-
surpassed by any nation of the worlds
history. She is cruel naturally. Spain
is a mixed race. Rawlinson says: "A
mixture of blood in a nation tends to
make a nation strong
From this fact we may draw the
conclusion that the mixture of races
that are morally bad makes bad COM
bination. and makes them morally
worse. Spain is bad combination. Is
it any wonder that on the warship OF a
peaceful nation, lying at peace on the
bosom OF Havana harbor, treacherous,
JuudS-llhes luty Siloulu pSiptlAdlo q
vile crime that in the name of God
shah rock the throne Of Spain? The
motto of Spain is the motto of the
Jesuits: "The means always justify the
end
"Spain's possessions have slipped
from her grasp one by one, and l pray
| God we may open the gate whereby
Cuba may step out and the yellow flag
of Spain may never float on American
soil again, and, like MiltOn's angel, she
may fall never to rise again"
At the close of the sermon, as is
usually the case in large audiences
| some persons started to leave. The
| pastor said: "Wait, please, until we
| have sung America and if anyone
| gees out before it is sung, brand him as
/ a Spaniard. The congregation re-
| NAMED.

LAW DOES NOT ALLOW NATIONAL
ENEMIES TO BECOME CITIZENS.
Philadelphia, May Sin answer to an
inquiry il has been stated in the
United States Court that If a Spaniard
should ask to be naturalized at the
present time his request would be re-
fused, as there is a United States stat
ute which prohibits the naturalization
of any alien from a country which is at
war with the United States.
Among the applicants for naturaliza-
ton yesterday there were a number
Of natives OF Germany and Ireland
Judge Dallas naturalized sixteen men
in the Circuit Court and rejected the
applications Of eight others.
Judge Butler, in the District Court,
naturalized sixteen men and rejected
the applications of eleven others.
Among the men aturalized by Judge
Butler was Aime Mohran Dubious.
who graduated from the Jefferson
Medical College in 1896, and who is a
native Of Egypt, and who arrived in
this country after the bombardiment OF
Alexandria. The former Egyptian was
asked by the judge whether he intend
ed to remain in this country or return
to his old home, and he replied that he
believed he would remain here. The
judge pressed for apositiye answer, say
| ing that he did not propose TO nat
uralize men who intended TO return TO
the old countries and who wanted to be
made citizens merely to have the pro-
| lection of our government in foreign
lands. After a little consideration Mr.
| Dubious said he was sure he would
| stay here, and then the court promptly
/ admitted him to citizenship.

rWn GREAT sHOTs.

Bright, keen-eyed, pleasant Annie
Oakley is probably, next TO Buffalo
Bill, the most popular person in the
wild West" exhibition. Her wonder
ful performance with shotgun and pis-
tol have given her a worldwide repu-
tatlOn. She stands unrivaled the best
woman shot in the world, and has
many times beaten the record against
all comers. With characteristic mod
esty, however, she never calls herself
champion.
Another dead-sure shot is Johnny
Baker, also a great favorite and win
ner OF many trophies at many tourna-
ments. His original gymnastic shoot
ing Is both wonderful and exceedingly
difficult.

IRON WORKS REsUME.

Great rejoicing exists in this city on
account of the starting of the Delaware
Iron Works, after an idleness Of nearly
Dne year. During this time the work
men who have formerly been in the en-
ploy of the local firm have been COM
PEELED to seek employment in other
places, and in many cases were COM
Delled to beg for food during the past
Winter on account of their inability to
secure employment. The iron works
are the mainstay Of the city, giving,
when running full handed, employment
to $50 men and boys, with a payroll
pf about $1,000 per week. 1t is expected
that the works will be started as soon
as the iron arrives in this city, and the
humber Of employees, increased as the
supply Of raw material increases.

BRAVE WIFE OF CAPTAIN BUT
LER STOOD AT THE WHEEL.

The large four-masted American
schooner Jennie S. Butler arrived at
Lewes yesterday morning from Glen
fuegos, Cuba. The schooner received
rough treatmentby the elements and the
captains wife, Mrs. G. II. Butler,
proved herself a heroine by her brave
assistance during the tremendous toss
ing the ship received.
The Butler reports being in company
when the storm came up, with the
schOoners Martha T. Thomas andSarah
d. Fell. both bound for Dewes for or
ders. Neither have yet arrived. and
it is a matter of conjecture what has
become of them.
The Butler left Cienfuegos before the
declaration of war. and her captain
expresses great satisfaction at having
gotten out. AS he was passing out the
harbor at Cienfuegos he saw Spaniards
placing submarine mines.
