AT sPRINcFIELD.

Rev. William A. Burch Delivered the
Sunday Morning Sermon at Camp.
The Springfield Union has the follow.
ing report of the sermon delivered at
the camp grounds in that city Sunday
morning by Rev William A. Burch of
Worcester on 1.-THE Ingerson controver-
sy; immortality, the scriptural, scienti-
lc and commendable view"
1.-THE present newspaper controversy
regarding the destiny of Ingersoll, has
made conspicuous the fact that the
theory Of eternal torment does not
commend itself to the conscience of
men. 1t is an age of investigation. Old
creeds are going to the wall, but the
Book survives and has nothing to fear.
We maintain that conditional immor-
tality is the true solution of the prob
lem of human destiny. Conditional i'm
mortality Is the doctrine which teaches
TINT man is not by nature immortal,
that Immortality will be the portion Of
the righteous only, and that the fate of
the wicked will be destruction.
at is the scriptural view, first be-
cause all the passages which contain
the words, immortal, Immortality, ETC.,
represent Immortality as g. conditional
gift to be bestowed at the resurrection.
This positive teaching is sustained by
the negative fact that in the Bible the
soul or spirit of man is never declared
to be immortal"
Mr.. Burch then treated the subject
from the scientific view. He said
that conditional Immortality was ac-
cordfrg to science. First, because it
is a well-known law of science that
IL life survives 1t must meet the con-
ditions of survival Conditionalsm IS
eminently doctrine Of survival of the
Attest"

Samuel Pantinovitz, a grocer at AZ

about 1870 o'clock last night, and the
prospects Of his receiving rough USAGE

Officer Ryan appeared at the corner Of

to the rescue. The officer swung IN right

Later in the night the officers round

reasons that had aotuated the mob in
closing in on Pantinovitz. The grocer.
they said, has met with business re-

GUILD MEN MEET.
Bates Hustlers Were
Probably Making
Figures.
LIGHTNING CALCULATOR BUSY.
He dominates the Speaker
Without Half
Trying.

A meeting of ward men who favor
the candidacy of Gen. Curtis Guild Jr.,
was held in the office Of Frank L. Dean
last night.
The meeting was not as largely at
tended as some of the previous ones
but those who were there were Just as
confident Of the outcome of the canvass
as any of their oo-workers in other
wards No action was reported other
than that the situation was talked over
and plans discussed for work in the
ward
The Bates men will start work in
earnest Within the next day or two,
when 1t is intended to hold meetings
OF all the ward committees and push the
fight for all there is ia It, Meanwhile,
the sltuations or it's appearance on the
surface, remains unchanged. Bates
men claim 1t is impossible to locate men
favoring Guild, and Guild men say the
same regarding their opponents.
A Boston publication claims to have
gone over the ground in the principal
cities of the state, and makes this esfi-
mate OF the attitude of delegates In
these oitiaS: Total number OF dele
gates 113e; for Bates, 500; for Guild,
ovI' ooupprHt, A9l la worcester, where
the superintendent gives 50 delggates,
Bates Is given 40, and Guild 10. Cop
les of the paper were sent to Bates
Fmen in Worcester yesterday but even
leaders in the Bates ranks are at a
loss to know how the figures were OBJ
tanned or what they are based on.
Guild men ridicule this estimate and
claim that by reversing the figures a
nearer estimate might be obtained. One
man closely associated with the Guild
constituency ventures an early predic-
ton on the outcome of the contest in
Worcester.
Here is his guess: Wards ], 2, 6, 7 and
8, solid for Guild. Ward s, about evenly
divided. Wards 3 and 4, doubtful, but
probably favorable to Guild.
In spite of the fact that neither Mr..
Dean nor Mr.. Hunt is willing to saw
much regarding the movement, further
than that they are satisfied with the
outlook, considerable work is being
done. There will be another ward
meeting in Mr.. Deans office this even
ing, and it was said yesterday that
there would be Bates meetings in ali
the wards tonight or the night follow
ing.
The total number of delegates to the
state convention this year is POPS. of
which Worcester has SO, apportioned as
follows: Ward !, z; ward 2, 8; ward 2
5; ward 4, 5; ward 5, Z; ward 8, 8; ward
z, g.; ward 8, 10.

A NARROW ESCAPE.

Grade Crossing Accident at Grand
Street, in WhichlTwo Men Barely Escape
G. D. Berard. a milkman, had a mar
row escape from death, shortly before
s O'Clock yesterday morning. His team
was struck by Boston and Albany
express at the Grand street crossing.
The horse was killed and mangied, the
cart was knocked into kindling wood
and the milk cans broken open and
their contents scattered in all direc-
tions. Berard and his son Frank
jumped and saved their lives.
There is no hagman at the crossing
at that early hour, it is said, and the
Berards did not hear the train, as it
came laundering along the track. The
milk wagon is Of the covered kind, and
this, it is thought, kept the Berards
from hearing the engine.
The danger with which they were
threatened was apparent to two men
standing on a nearby corner, and they
yelled to the milkmen. but the warning
came too late. The next instant they
We're on the track and the train
crashed into them.
The Berards were not seriously in
jured, but both were considerably
frightened, and are now at the home
of Thomas LIE Boeuf, Grand street,
Last night they were reported COM
Portable.

AT the meeting Of Moulders' Union,

applications for membership were re-

the fact that the work room has not

from local foundries Out Of town men

LIP BADLY CUT.
a Bottle ofcatsup ExpIodes With seri-
Gus Results.

Gus Results.
Harry Harrison, 7-year-old boy,
living with his parents at 10 Valley
street, while exploring rubbish heap
in yard contiguous to his own, Sun
day, unearthed an old ketchup bottle
that apparently had never been emp
tied. Boyish curiosity prompted him
to attempt to open it. While manipu-
lating the stopper, the bottle exploded
with great force, and piece Of the
glass struck the boy on the lip, cutting
1t severely. He howled with pain and
was taken to his home, where Drs.
Ward and Slocumb attended him. The
wound is not serious, but he will carry
a soar, the physicians think, to his dy-
ing day.
His mother is much disturbed as a
result Of the accident, and is to report
the matter to the board OF health with
a view to having the rubbish cleared
away.
