CHRISTIAN CHURCH
Another New EdifiCe in Phoenix Is
Dedicated

October 18th, 1899, Will be memOra-
BILE date in the church history of Phoe-
nix, for it marked the dedication of one
of the most complete and beautiful
houses of worship within the territory.
When the house was ready for the
event the First Christian church of Los
Angeles very generously volunteered to
send its pastor the Rev. A. c. Smither
to perform the ceremony, without dol
lars expense to the Phoenix church.
This was largely owing to the strong
friendship existing between the two
pastors, Revs. Smither and Ferguson,
and was but another evidence of the
popularity of the latter among his for
r1er associates and co-laborers in Los
Angeles.
The dedicatoly sermon was preached
yesterday at eleven O'Clock by the Rev.
Smither to d packed house. Every inch
of seating room was occupied, but none
were turned away. The house was pro
fusely decorated with flowers and ever
greens and presented a most beautiful
appearance. The preacher took as a
text from PauFs letter to the church at
.Ephesus: Now therefore, We are no
more strangers and foreigners, but fell
low citizens with the saints, and Of the
nOuSehOld OF God; ana are Dullt upon
the foundation of the apostles an
prophets, Jesus Christ himself being
the chief corner stone; in whom all the
building. fifty framed together, groweth
unto an holy temple in the Lord; in
whom We also are buiIdcd together for
an habitation of God through the
Spirit"
The speaker prefaccd his remarks 10y
to the growing spirit of fra
ternity existing between the churches
of the present day. The church that
hates all other churches IRust fall BE-
hind ard fail in its work. The discourse
was along the line of building character
and the growth of the church of Christ.
He said that the very foundation OF
the church was the fact that Jesus
Christ was the Son of God. The power
of the church is derived solely from
the life and character and principles &C
Jesus the Christ. Any organization
founded on a wrong principle must ulti- |
mately fail
An accurate biography of Jesus Christ |
could be written from the writings cf
the prophets hundreds of years before
his birth.

been put in.
The building cost upwards of $4,000,
and the pews $500. The floor plan was
drawn by a. P. Walbridge, an officer of
the church, and c. z. Curtis was the
architect and builder.
The building committee having
charge of 1he construction was com
posed of NJ V. Warren. J. f. Tame
hill, Frank Fuqua. Robt Fridel and
Mrs NJ E. Sergeant, with a. P. Wal
bridge, clerk.
The location selected for this church
is one of the most eligible sites in the
city, and comprises a lot 75X137A feet
Fifth avenue for which $500 was paid.
The Rev. L. o. Ferguson is just en-
tering on his second years passionate
for the church in Phoenix, and is justly
popular with his congregation, as is
also his estimable wife
Tt is seldom that a church passes
through the trying ordeal of building
new house with as little friction and
difference OF opinion as has this con-
gregation. What has been done was by
the unanimous voice of the church, and
all have worked tremendously and
faithfully for its accomplishment.
The ladies, as usual, have taken Il
leading part in the building operations,
and male members of the congregation
are gallant enough to frankly acknowl-
edge that without their aid the house
could not have been built.

BACK FROM BOSTON.
The Romantic Experience of a Yuma
Man.

L
( Man.
| Mr. and Mrs. c. d. Cronin arrived
from Boston last Tuesday and spent
two days visiting old-time friends,
/ leaving last evening for Fortuna,
where Mr.. Cronin has accepted a posi-
ton with the Fortuna Mining company
and Mrs Cronin will teach the public
school. Mr.. Cronin. says the Yuma
Sun, has had a peculiar experience
during the past two and half years,
which, if published in detail, would
read like a romance. AT the beginning
of the Spanish-Anerfcan war he en-
listed with Roosevelt's Rough Riders.
but was taken sick with fever at San
Antonio and was discharged for in
ability after being in the service a few
months. He then went to Los Angeles
where he entered a hospital under the
care of the best physicians on the
cOast His ailment was pronounced
consumption in the last stages and his
physicians told him that he could live
but very short time at best He lin
gered between life and death for sew
eral months and was finally persuaded
by friends to go to his old home in
Boston to die. At that time he weighed
but ninety pounds and was unable to
sit up. Such a long and tiresome trip
seemed like certain death to one in
his condition, but it was apparently
his only chance to ever see again the
home of his boyhood, and he took it.
When he passed through Yuma he was
met at the train by a large number of
friends who babe him a reluctant fare
VOL mo of VIII to
see him again. He was met at New
Orleans by his betrothed, Miss Lillian
z. Rood, who persuaded him to go TO
her home in st. Augustine, Florida,
where she hoped with the aid of the
balmy climate TO nurse him back to
health again. His condition improved
slightly for a time in Florida. but no
permanent benefit was derived and in
company with Miss Rood he journeyed
on to Boston to prepare for the end,
which seemed almost in sight. After
reaching Boston his condition contin-
ued to grow worse for time and while
he was on his supposed death bed the
ceremony was performed joining in the
holy bonds of matrimony him and Miss
Rood, who had so nobly stood by him
during his long hard struggle for an
existence. 1t was her supreme deVo-

the uncertainties of the next world to

The universe was planned by the Al
mighty before it was called into exist

He said that Gods work was always
progressing and growing. When growth
ceases disintegration begins The noun
tains around US have ceased to grow,
and the floods are washing them down
to enrich the valleys below. The church
is growing and its influence is spread
ing more rapidly than ever before.
Some people claim that the world is
growing worse. But it is not so. The
forces fighting for religion, morality
and purity are more active than at any
time in the history of the wo.lG.
He said he had just attended the
largest missionary convention ever held
by any church, there being between
fifteen and twenty thousand delegates
present, in the city of Cincinnati All
that called these persons from their
homes, was their interest in missionary
work and the spread OF the gospel.
He said that a great many people
claimed to be holy, but their neighbors
told a different story. One man back
east claimed that he had not sinned for
seventeen years, when his wife was
taking in washing and blowing in the
field to support his children. Anything
was holy that was dedicated to the ser
vice of God.
Some people could not understand
how God dwelt in a man. But this was

thority in material things, but not his
love, except in man. The human heart
is not big enough for God and Satan to
dwell in at the same time.
The speaker believed that the church
would go on in its growth until it
should rule the whole earth for right
eoUsness.
At the close of the sermon three per-
sors took membership with the church.
The NJ. E church south dismissed
their services, and attended the Christ
ian church in d body.

DESCRIPTION OF BUILDING.

There are others with a greater seat
ing capacity, but none with more con
veniences. nor more beautiful designs.
The building is an ornament to the city
and reflects great credit both upon the
designer and the congregation that
erected it. It is built of brick laid on
a solid stone foundation, the walls ris-
ing some seventeen feet from the level
of the street, and being surmounted by
q shingle roof of peculiar symmetry and
beauty.
The main auditorium is a room of Sc
by a feet with an entrance through a
spacious vestibule on the northwest
corner, and another one from a porch
at the southwest corner. Another door
from this porch leads into the Sunday
school room, the dimensions of which
are % by 40 feet. This room is sepa-
rated from the main auditorium by d
heavy curtain of rich material and
beautiful design, suspended on rods fif-
teen feet above the floor, which may be
drawn aside, making one large room
with seating capacity of about 500.
In the west end of the main audito-
rum is the pulpit. fiankcd on one side
by the choir loft and on the other by
the baptistry. which latter deserves
special mention. 1t was designed by
the pastor Rev. l.. .. Ferguson, and is
highly ornamental as we'll as useful
and convenient. 1T is built of granite
laid in cement, and projects above the
floor about two feet, and is open at all
times. 1t is entered by stairways lead
ing from the pastors study in the rear
and the parlor on the other side, which
is reached from the Sunday school
room. Each of these rooms, as well
the choir loft, has a door leading to the
street outside
The arched ceilings are of unique but
beautiful design, and are so arranged
as to give perfect acoustic properties.
The walls and ceiling have what plas
terers call a sand finish, which is
much more pleasing to the eye than
the glaring white of plastered walls.
The interior wood work is of pine, fin
ished in oil, as arc also the pews The
inside castings of ali openings are of
plaster of paris. and every window in
the house may he thrown open for ven
tilation.
The building Is brilliantly lighted by
