one regret that comes OF the an
noumcement that the officers Of the
Federal court of the Western district
have held their last session i'm ScraI-
ton, Is that it means this city will
be deprived al III" pleasant periodical
soiourns III the distinguished young
jurist who has conducted most OF the
courts sessions here, Hon. Joseph
Burlington. He has made an eNten
siVe acquaintance among Scranton
ians, and aS those who have met him
will attest. this means that he has
mildu in scranton IA coterie of admir-
ing friends. His judicial ability and
striking personalityvie with each other

competing unconsciously for admira-
ton. Both are truly admirable His
closest observers would hesitate to de
eide the contest.
4 thing not infrequently remarked
of Judge burlington by those who
watch the proceedings OF his court, Is
his tendency to ally himself, as far as
the proprieties VIII permit, with the
young lawyer or old lawyer inexper-
fenced in Federal court practice. lie
seems Ia take the position that the
United states government is So much
more powerful than the unlortuna re
individual! who is being prosecuted,
that If it comes TO Il pass where the
defendant Is in danger of being worsted
by reason OF some neglect or over
sight of his attorney, The court will
take hand in making up the def-
cheney. The culprit, no matter how
lowly or poor, need not fear that he
will suffer in Judge Buffngtons court
just because Of his adversary being the
most powerful government on earth

ABOLISHED a DEATH.


"Yct. my friends. this thing has been
done. Jesus Christ has abolished death
1t is historical fact that He died,
ros >rSain and came back to dwell with
His Aiscples for forty days. This
leader of humanity. this most perfect
of men. tasted the horrors and agonies
of death TO the utmost, and finally
gained a complete and absolute victory
over them.
"Thc s.bolishment Of death by Christ
does not mean an adjustment Of spir-
itual death because we know that
spiritual death threatens us all We
know that We must always fight the
tempter and that we can never lay
aside the arnor of light and sword Of
the tempter until wc are called to our
final rest
Before the advent of CmiSt. death
meant devastation and sadness beyond
all expression. 1t was something to be
feared and dreaded by all men, When
Christ came, and by His own triumph
over death gave us the radiant hope Of
rising even as He rose and living in
His blessed kingdom for eternity, death
lost much OF the horror which previ-
olsly invested It.

little band of 100 Christians who saw
Him di. to grow to almost countless
millions. It has caused the establish
ment on this earth of a great king
dom. the church militant.
SWALLOWED IN VICTORY.
Death has been swallowed up in vic-
tory and a result, in my opinion. the
world is growing better every day.
Nations are becoming more kindly in
their relations, one To another. ana q
sense OF the universal brotherhood Of
man and the fatherhood of God is
growing all the while. The practice of
the real virtues is becoming more uni
versal also.
But the dawn of Il universal king
dom of God on earth will not come un-
til the men who believe in the reSur-
rection Of Christ do some thing tn make
the name more lovely among men.
''Tf it is actually true. as we believe
ii TO be. that Christ came down from
heaven to earth. left the peace aud sell
entity of His heavenly hom. and be-
came bone of our bone and flesh of our
flesh: i, it is true that He died on
the cross for our redemption and that
He arose from the dead and dwrlt
upon the earth for forty days. finally
to rise bodily into heaven; if these
things are true, | say, is there Il single
man or woman believing III ,m who
can say that he or she has nothing to
do.
IF We believe these truths as we
should believe them it is not possible
Tor us to believe them in Il passive,
superficial conventional sort of Il way
as many of lis do. 1t is not possibl, to
believe them without being convinced
that Christ has a direct claim upon
Us all and that we should spread His

most men a failure in business, In pro-

keener and the margins Of success are
growing narrower. The means OF com
