DEATH IN THE PULPIT.

Reading the Opening Hymn.
New York, Oct Rev DR.. Gilbert
II. Gregory passed away yesterday in
the presence of his congregation at
the morning service in st. Stephens
NJ E. church, Marble Hill, at the upper
end of Manhattan Island. He was 63
years old.
Physicians had urged DR.. Gregory to
retire from active church work, as he
had long been a sufferer from heart
trouble. They told him that he might
live for years if he would cease labor,
but that if he continued to work he
was liable to be stricken at any mo-
ment. As late as Saturday DR.. Dar-
lingtOn, of Kings Bridge, who was at
tending DR.. Gregory, warned him
against preaching yesterday. The
clergyman said to his physician: Il
prefer to meet death in that way to re-
firing and shirking my duty in order
to live longer"
He had not preached in St Stephens
for three Sundays on account of heart
attacks, but when word was passed
around that he would resume his du-
ties yesterday the church was filled.
The service had progressed to the
singing of a hymn which precedes the
sermon Dr. Gregory arose and read
three verses of the hymn, beginning
Love diWine, all love excelling." /"
While the music of the anthem filled
the church DR.. Gregory was noticed to
seat himself and then fall limp over
one of the arms of the chair
Members of the congregation went to
his assistance and two physicians who
happened to be passing the church
were called in. They saw at once that
the minister was beyond human aid,
and in a few minutes from the time
that he was stricken DR.. Gregory was
dead

"a DEPLoRABLE CONFLICT"
Rev. J. p. Mendes on the worlds Dis
Hurbances.

"A Deplorabe Conflict was the subject
of Rev. 1. p. Mendes's lecture last night
at the Temple Mickva Israel.
Amy one interested IN the occurrences
of the day." DR.. Mendes said, must be
unpleasantly impressed with the disturb
cd state of the world, with the constant
upheaval and excitement which makes it
resemble almost a state Of universal war
fare. The war Ia South Africa and in the
Philippines and political murmers right
in our own country are enough TO con-
vince any intelligent observer that uni
versal peace is ana is likely to remain,
only a utopian dream.
But If these conditions be deplorable.
what shall We say he asked.
constant war that is carried On
in the field of religion? It does not re-
qufre keen conception 10 see that an UNI
holy and ungodly war is being waged in
certain churches. a persecution without
pity and without rsmorse. In this con-
fict the leaders and the soldiers are not
the people at large, but intelligent and en-
lightened men, supposed to have received
light from above ministers of Almighty
God. yet who wage bitter and relentless
war against the religion of that God. Men
who should be teaching the teneJs OF The
brotherhood Of man, but who instead take
needless and endless pains to tell to the
world at large that God has condemned
and cast out as irredeemab.e sinners all
persons who fail to come into their own
fold"
els 1t not a sad reflection added Dr.
Nendes that in an age like this these
men should make a public proclamation
from the pulpit that they refuse to offer
up prayers with men and women who DIFF
fer with them in their religious views.
Yet such was the case only a short time
since when certain ministers of our North
ern states refused to worship in company
with the Unitarians.
The i'll VIII that this spirit shows could
DO engendered only by that unsuitable
hunger for notoriety, that parching thirst
for sensation that dries up all desire for
peace and loses sight of this fact that
ghere is but one God who has given his
religion for all mankind. If they really
care for the peace and prosperity Of the
world let them forget themselves and
their ambitions TO make great regulations,
let them consign 10 the depth of oblivion
that worn out doctrine of an endless sheol.
People want TO learn how to live, not how
to evade an eternal he'll that exists only
in the narrow minds of bgots and reli-
giOus fanatics.
The great Judge will not inquire to what
race, religion or sect belonged the soul
that cries to him for mercy"
