NEW PASTOR BREACHES
AT FIRST METHODIST CHURCH
 YESTERDAY.

Rev. Francis T. Brown Meets New Con-
 gregation-C0mmittee Expects to Re-
 sume Services in RemodeIed Church
 Next sunday-sunday School Officers
 Elected.
 At the First Methodist church yes terday morning the new pastor Rev. Francis T. Brown, formerly of Middle town, graduate of Yale, academic. and Divinity school, preached his first ser- mon to his new congregation. Rev. Mir. Brown chose as his text the passage from St. Paul's sermon to the Atheni- ans, II perceive that in all things ye are very religious" MT. Brown preach ed an interesting sermon in which he enlarged upon the theme suggested by his text. He pointed out that all na- tions are religious to begin with. but that they do not get down to the es- sential part of Christianity. MT. Brown did not make any reference to the fact that this was the beginning of his new pastorate.
 After the morning service the mem bers of the congregation met MT. Brown for the first time and all were very much pleased with the choice of the conference for them. The Sunday school room in which the services are held had been decorated for yesterdays s service. The committee expect to be able to resume services in the remodeled church next Sunday. The seats have arrived and are now being put in.
 At the service last evening the new pastor was not present, he having re- turned to Middletown to arrange for his removal to this city. The address at the evening service was delivered by the Rev. o. R. Miller, who is legisla- tive secretary of the National Temper ance society of Washington. His sub ject was, Good Tidlngs from Washing ton" He spoke of the work which the society is doing, and especially of some of the things which it has accomplish ed. He told how the society had brought about the abolition of two saloons which were formerly in business in the basement of the building of the senate and of the house of representatives.
 Another of the accomplishments of the society which he told of was the closing of the worlds fair at St. Louis on Sundays. He spoke of the attempt of the people of St. Louis through their delegate to obtain from congress $5,- 100000 appropriation for the aid of the exposition. By the efforts of the SO ciety the bill was only passed with an amendment attached requiring the clos ing of the fair on the Sabbath, which provision Secretary Shaw had embodied in the contract He also spoke of sev' eral other things which the society has accomplished. 'i ! Rev. MT. Brown also addressed the meeting of the EpWorth league at 6:30 1 Yesterday was also the day for the installation of the new officers of the Sunday school. The officers who took office yesterday were: Sidney Perlin Butler, superintendent Dr. J. E. Bryant, first associate super intendent; Miss Messer, second asso- :! ciate superintendent; Benjamin Cowan librarian; Edward Gilbert, secretary; i Mrs. Kedsie, pianist.

be bought, but the American people cannot be bought. The legislatures can be bought; the churches can be bought, but the American people can not be bought. The plain people may be puzzled over the legal aspects of this matter but they see the moral issue. They are used to giving blunt names to things, and they call this man a robber. Great heavens, is there nothing certain in this world until some court of law has passed upon it; and even among lawyers is there not such a thing as prin1a facie evidence? I have not the lawyers mind but I do have the. intel ligence of the average man, and for seven years, since I read MT. Lloyd's Wealth and Commonwealth to the time of closing Miss Tarbell's vivid story I have studied this mans com- pany and it's methods. If this man has not Derjured himself no man ever did; if this man has not robbed the people, no man ever did; if this man, through the company which he dominates, has not. broken the laws, no man ever did. I say judgment has been passed; the evidence is all in, and the verdict has been rendered. The American people are the ones who have passed judgment being themselves the creators of the courts. What progress shall we ever make in denouncing evil if we are to wait for process of law, when the crea- tors and executors of law are but pawns under the thumb of him who plays the game. Here is an extract from a letter which I have just received:
 ",They halt in the face of the first opportunity to speak clear rebuke of commercial dishonor. to throw dust. Un- less we go into court and prove John D. Rockefeller a robber, they will not act on a moral conviction so absolute that nobody doubts. They ask us to charge them with the imbecility of being ignorant of what every man knows privately. And the people, Gods great masses of the poor, the

every argument by which the pruden- tlal committee of the American board seek to justify themselves is an argu- ment for accepting money from any source. Gamblers, pirates, murderers, all may bring their little share of spoil, and the board, by the logic of it's own reasoning must take the money.
 MT. Rockefeller has lived his life in his own way. He will die and go to his own place. But the American board will remain and continue to do it's great work. The way it looks at this thing is of more importance to the world than all MT. Rockefeller's money.
 "When I read the formal statement of the prudential committee something kept crying out within me: Two thou sand years and this is the utterance of the Christian church! Two thousand years and this is mems understanding of Jesus. The opportunity of the cen- tury, and all we have to show for it Is document of tangled sophistries, pa per that might have been prepared by 8 corporation lawyer looking for tech- nicalities by which the main issue might be avoided or obscured. Expla- nations, evasions, excuses, legal quib- bles but not one sentence from begin ming to end that rings true. Fold that statement into any page of the New Testament and it would burn to a crisp "In that statement is an attempt to hide behind the Baptist church. Of the Baptists, this much at least may be said, they have never tried to evade re. sponsibility. They have planted their feet squarely on the ground and stood straight under the burden of theil shame

Natty Effects In Easter
 Neckwear

Of real captivating, satis f yin g beauty there is no end in the Easter Neckwear for men.
 Whether one admires the elusive chameleon tints, or the exquisite patterns in gray, plum, green or tan-the pleasure of possessing one is very keen.
 Some of the patterns are odd. The broken figures and bias stripes especially so. Others are quiet in hue, and less striking in general effect. And last, there is a perfect medley of pin-dots, hair lines and invisible effects.
 By all means if you love 8 good tie-get one of those dollar beauties. For even at a dollar the price is exceed ingly modest for the silk.
