ENGINE HOUSE
BLOWN UP

Chester, Pa, April 29.--The en-.
CINE house Of J. b. Rodgers & Co.,
located at the Neither Providence
quarrics, was blown up by dynamite
this morning and the wreckage was
consumed by fire. The tool house
was broken open and about Is sticks
OF dynamite were distracted and eX-
ploded in the engine house. Where
the building stood is now gaping
hole in the ground.
The qulrries are leased from Rod
gers & Co, by Philip AIlcutt, of Up.
land. Mr.. Allcutt can assign no
reason for the destruction of the
property but revenge is thought to
be the motive.
The engine house was large,
frame structure and contained hor-
izontal engine, upright boiler and
other machinery which was totally
wrecked. So great was the force Of
the explosion that the shock was felt
for miles around Delaware County.

Hearn left tho house Bending asked
where Hearn had gone. Bending
denied making such inquiry.
The motive for the crime was
probably robbery. Hearn had with
him in the morning $3.50, but when
the body was discovered two FIVE

were all the money in the pockets.
1t was stated that Bending paid
on the night after the murder SIS

DEBATE.
n Ill / n

"The Methodist Episcopal Church
has a strong tendency to become
more and more like the Prote slant
Episcopal Church on the one side,
and, on the other, to become in tone
like the Salvation Army. say that
in twenty five years we shall see a
division if conditions do not change.
Methodism has always had Its best
growth in this country and has al
ways failed when 1t initiated other
denominations.
These words were uttered by the
Rev. Il. P. Parkin, Of Grace Church,
at the regular weekly meeting OF the
Methodist preachers yesterday at
1918 Arch street, Philadelphia. The
Rev. w. A. Shanklain read a paper
before the meeting on THE Order
Ing of Public Worship in the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church, and in the
discussion that followed DR.. Parkln
aired bis views. Continuing, he said
81 have read IN the papers that
here in our city Catholic Church
Congress will hold a meeting in st.
Mark Church next Wednesday, and
that the assembly will be formally
opened by the celebration Of Solemn
high Mass. This incident tends to
show that the Protes tart Episcopal
Church is drifting toward the Church
of Rome, and I believe that the
Methodist Episcopal Church Is drift
ing toward the Protestant Episcopal.
The Rev. Thomas kirkpatrick
said: "Now we see strange things
but we shall see stranger ones after
a time. The trouble with the Epis-
copal brethren lies in the fact that
they don't know what they believe.
The glory of Methodism is due to
there being no departure from doc
trine. What has ritualism ever done
for Methodism? / don't believe it
has ever done anything Of real value.
Methodism is the teaching OF the
gospel of Jesus Christ and the preach
ing of salvation for lost men. II
you are going to have a liturgy and
sermonette then good. bye to Method
ism. You will have little diluted
gospel and much glossy Journalism.
We Methodists believe In discarding
all this tape try that has nothing in
1t but q little sentiment.
In his paper DR.. Shanklin says:
zone of the most vital questions of
the church catholic today is the or
dering of public worship. The over
emphasis upon the sermon, the un-
due length Of eytemporaneous prayer,
with its not infrequent personal lido
syncracies, capricious mood and ego.
ism, the general slip-shod manner of
conduct of the service, begotten of
the profane idea that the devotional
services are preliminarles, mere &C.
cesso cries and the like, have produced
the reaction against the bald and
austere and funeral order Of service
Of many SO called non liturgical
churches. We have lowered the
idea Of worship Our churches are
often no more to lis than preaching
Places Ministers advertise in the
papers "The Rev. Mr.. Blank will
preach at IL o'clock; subject "Jewel.

A number of clergymen took part
in the discussion Some believed In
