DIR. FENN'S ADDRESS.

Rev. DIR. Fem delivered an aioreFs
Sunday evening ON "The Carnival of
Crime" In which, after speaking of the
outsurtts OF lynohing in the south and
west and of the terrible crimes committed
in this state In recent months, he went
on to say that this was largely due to lax
theology. He slii that we could not i'm

those who are OF ths uueducat sd olassss
t9o strongly the laws of the land and the
rigors OF the law, the punishment not
only here, but hereafter. He sii Il that q
friend Of his had said when asked why
1t was that the theology of tle West and
In new sections of the country was more
severe than 1t is in the East, replied that
in the new communities he people were
surrounded by ruds and urt1tored peop-
pie, royssers and Adventures. and that
In consequence the ministers preach he'll,
anu preach 1t straight, and it does pow
er OF good. In conolus on, DIR. Fem
said that much OF the trouble Arising
from these outours OF crime Is due TO
the INSCRIPTIONS acts of politicians. who,
for some bass reason, allow criminals to
easily escape the punishment they merit,
and in consequence the law-sbiding pen-
pie bee ONE angry and take matters in

SUNDAY OBSERVANCE.
Sermon by Rev. DIR. Dalton at 81.
stephens Church.

At st. stephens yesterday Rev. DIR.
Dalton preached on sunday observan CO.
His text was Isaiah % 1915. An outline
of what be said follows;
''SeveraI points are to be considered.
uf What is the present condition, COM
pared with former times? Statistics
woald seem to show that the differences Is
less than generally supposed, yet there IL
o differere). Speaking for our three
prir &c pal cities, in which formerly there
were few families unoonneoted with some
huroh. This cannot be said OF the same
plscss today, and they ara fairly represen-
tatIvs Llloes. However, II church oongre-
cations seem smsllsr, not more than one
hall of any congregation can be counted
on to be present at one time. (s) Some
OF the causes Of the change. The most
marked and obvious was the civil war,
during which, the decline began. The
Sunday papers that are sent TO us from
New York, hawked about our streets,
and apparently widely read, are thorough
Iy dsmoraIizing. They begin by costing
man his eyesight, and end by corrupt
Ing his morals The real or suppcs ID
need OF rest and recreation ia another;
and in general the rapid pacs at which
we live. Many people are 60 nervous that
they cannot sit still an hour. Children,
in particular, are said TO be unable to at
tend church and Sunday school Hence
generation is growing up without
either, after fifteen years of age.
"(3) Some of the consequences. Coin
cIdcnt at least with this decline Is COR
increase OF crime. especially
of the grossar sort. There are towrs In
Maine, formerly highly moral, when the
peopls were church going people, that
have sadly fallen of In this respect
Formerly, families living completely
isolated, far from their neighbors. felt
perfectly safe, and were so, even when
doors and windows were LETT unfastened
at night Every one knows that this is
true no longer. Our farmers, for their
own protection, Will soon demand the
restoration OF capital punishment for the
crime of deliberate murder with malice
aforsthought, in all cases where there is
no douht OF the identity OF the murderer.
A putlin sentiment that win sustain the
government in sending large army ten
thousand miles to slay thousands Of peo-
pie because they refuse to live under our
laws, and yet shudders at the penalty OF
death for the foul and deliberate murder
er, Is maudlin.
40 The correction. Laws can do little
unless backed by public opinion, which
must be that of the community generally.
The duty devolves largely on the churches
themselves to instruct and influence all
classes as to the Importance of the OBJ
servanoe of the Lords day. True religion
is ths first and highest needs OF human
beings, and requires sisted times, sea-
sons, teaching and ob,ervances, only as
