A DIFFICULpY sErrLED.

The crew of the barkeDtine Arthur G.
Wade, which arrived at this port Thurs
day, was paid of Saturday. There was
a little difficulty when Capt. IL. H.
sherman, the master came to settle
with Thomas DoIgan, lad 80 years of
age, who shipped from New York when
the vessel left to go to Demarara. Sew
eral days after being out, Dorgan became
seasick and was incapaciated from regu
lar duty as an abb seaman in which po-
sition he shipped. On this account Capt
Sherman re-rated the young fellow and
put him on the wages OF a boy, s. a
month. The captain noted this change
In the log, but he inadvertently omitted
to inform Dorgan OF the change Accord
ingIy when Wade arrived In Portland
young DOrgan was surprised to learn
hat his pay was to be less than he had
anticipated The captain, however, was
obdurate. The matter was referred for
arbitration to Shipping Commissioner
Prindabls, who pointed out to the cap
tain the breach that had been made in
failing to notify the lad Capt. Sherman
recognized his error and everything was
satisfactorily adjusted by the lad being
paid In full.

A Strange and UnapproachabIe Light
Stirring the People About Clifton.
Special to the Register.
CLIFTON, w. Va, May 24-Much
comment is being caused here by the
appearance of what the superstitious
declare is a ''spook," and which is
seen to travel at all hours of the night
over the hills south of town. The
"spook," or whatever it may be, was
first seen about four years ago, and it
is said haunted the same locality for
several months and then disappeared.
About three weeks ago it again put
in an appearance and ever since has
been alarming the superstitious and
puzzling others who do not believe in
the supernatural. The "spook" Is
nothing other than brilliant light
which glides over the ground, through
tree tops and elsewhere in the most
approved style known to writer's of
ghost stories. and which battles all
efforts to get near it, Several parties
have gone forth to unravel the mys-
terry, but no man has yet been able to
get near enough to the mysterious
light to find out it's nature. Credu-
loUs folks declare it to be lost soul
cropping in the darkness with a light
while the more rational are of the
opinion that 1t is gaseous vapor es-
Gaping from decaying vegetation. The
fact, however, that there is little or
no decaying matter or marshy lands
in the vicinity tends to contradict all
latter theory Taken all around, it
is quite mystery, and one that is
not likely to be solved for a time.

WHICH SABBATH?

Argument of Mr.. Hartman

Argument of Mr.. Hartman.
To the Editor of the Register
Sir:-Your correspondent in his let
ter under the caption Which Sab

quoted from the Bible yet more in sup
port of the perfect law of liberty
In Romans 14:5 we read: One man
esteemeth every day one day above an
other; another esteemeth every day
alike. Let every man be fully persuad-
ed in his own mind" Here is an i'm
plication that the handwriting of ordi-
nances that was against us, which was
contrary to us, had been plotted out
taken out of the way, and that hence
forth none was subject to them unless
he SO elected. A matter of conscience,
purely.

we read: Il know, and am persuaded
by the Lord Jesus, that there is moth
ing unclean, Tor profane) of itself;
but to him that esteemeth anything
to be unclean Cor profane), to him it

The truth in respect to the REST"

time yet to come. Moses gave us not
that Rest" neither has Jesus. The
Mosaic and Christian ordinances arc

For if Jesus had given them rest, Tor

the counsels of the hearts; and then
shall every man have praise of God. ="

ASCENSION Day
WAS VERY APPROPRIATELY Oh
SERVED BY VARIOUS LOCAL
CHURCHES YESTERDAY.
GOLDEN JUBILEE AT LIONS
Closed Last Evening With Interest
Ing CeremOnies-Rev. p. j. Hob
Preached n Sermon For the Occa-
siOn-Services at Each Church
Were Interspersed With Pleasing
Music.

The semi-centennial celebration by
the congregation of lions Lutheran
church, which commenced last Sunday
morning closed last evening with SER
vices appropriate to Ascension Day.
There was present a very large con-
gregation and the music under the di-
rection of Prof Arbenz was a
very pleasing feature of the oc-
casion. The pastor, Rev. Phillip
j. Hob, delivered an excellent sermon
in German, taking for his theme
,"Heaven, Home of Gods Children, -
and his remarks were appreciably re-
ceived by those present. The reverend
gentleman spoke of the longing with
which the pilgrim invariably looks for
ward to Heaven and very beautifully
pictured Heaven in the minds of his
hearers as a port of peace and place
of rest after the voyage of life is at an
end for all those who believe in the
gospel of Jesus Christ. The minister
also gave an interesting historical
sketch of the congregation of lions
church pointing out the many changes
which had taken place under varying
circumstances in the congregation dur
ing the last half century. He spoke of
how the church had grown from an
humble mission to the large and inf1u-
entail organization that it is to-day and
thought that there were various rea-
sons for gratitude and rejoicing among
the members for what the past has de-
yeloped for them. He spoke of the
older people of the church who had left
their home in the old country and here
found a home just as good and in some
instances much better. =
During the celebration a collection.
which was taken up to defray the ex-
penses of recent improvements to the
church building amounted to about
$3.50. The choir, under the direction of
Prof. H. ]. Arbenz, rendered special
music at each service, and added ma
terially to the success of the event.
