new PASTOR
AT ST. PAUL s

The Rev. William Brill, appointed
at the Central Pennsylvania confer
ence to succeed the Rev. M. K, Fost-
er, occupied the pulpit at st. Paul 5
M. E. church for the first time Sun
day. A good-sized congregation was
present and the new pastor made a
good impression.
AS sound and logical expounder of
the gospel, a direct and foroeful speak
er. judging from Sundays effort,
Rev. William Brill stands second to
none of the preachers who have oc-
cupied the pulpit at st. Paul's for
many years past.
The text was embraced in the 9th
and 9TH verses of the second chapter
of the epistle of Paul to the Collos-
slams: "As ye have, therefore, receiv-
ed Christ Jesus, the Lord, so walk ye
in him
"Rooted and built up in him and est
ablished in the faith. as ye have been
taught, abounding therein with
thanksgiving.
Employing the text the speaker very
ably illustrated what constitutes the
essence of a genuine Christian life.
The beginning of Christian life is
the receiving of Christ Jesus. 1t is
not making profession of religion, un-
iting with the church, partaking Of
the Lord j supper, contributing to the
church and living right in the COM
munity. although all these things are
necessary. 1t is the receiving of Jesus
Christ himself. When soul receives
Christ it receives wisdom, righteous
ness, and sanctiication the personal
living Christ lives in him. Christ lives
in his people not as a precious mem
ory, as might be said of Washington
and other heroes Of the worlds his
tory, but as direct divine source of
spiritual life. The desires, and ambi-
tions of the soul are all subject to His
will Christ becomes the inspiration
of all the SOULS activities.
England, America and many other
countries are spoken of as Christian
nations and yet the great mass of men
have not received Jesus Christ. Many
men, it is true, have embraced Christ
with the hope of escaping hell, but the
world is not yet Christian in the full
lest sense-has never received Christ
sincerely>snd heartily as its Lord and
master. GAS ye have therefore receiv-
ed Jesus Christ, the Lord, so walk ye
in Him. which implies that we are
to grow up in Him. We are to walk
not in the teaching and doctrines of
Jesus Christ but with and in Jesus
Christ, growing and advancing in Him
as developing and transforming force.
In conclusion the sermon dealt with
the condition and mode of the
Christian life. AS implied by the
text, as condition of his advancement
the Christian is to be rooted in Christ
not rooted in spiritual doctrine but
rooted in Christ.
Many church members are in the
habit of remarking that on such date
they sought religion as though the
bare act was all that was necessary.
There was something in their conduct
that suggested to the speaker the case
of man who early in life was un-
fortunate enough to have the small
pox, but who in subsequent life found
satisfaction in adverting to the
circumstance as proof that he was i'm
mune from further attack of the dis
ease.
How many men and women of the
churches are more familiar with the
daily newspaper and the fashion plate
than the pages of the new testament.

A STRANGERS
Odd PREDICAMENT

Au event considerably out of the
ordinary took place in this city Fri.
day. A well.dressed stranger who
was unable to give an account of him.
self was found struggling in the creek
near the stove works. His life was
saved by very narrow margin.
AS Michael MoHale, moulder, was
on his way to work shortly before Z
o'clock Friday morning ON crossing
the culvert ON the D. l.. 81 W. rail-
road near che water tank his attention
was attracted by an object in the
creek, which upon investigation prov
ed to be a man.
The poor fellow was on all-fours in
the water. Mr.. McHale called to him
but he seemed to be in stupor, if not
unconscious. At this juncture Fritz
Becker and John Sherwood, two other
moulders, came along and willingly
lent Mr.. McHale assistance in lifting
the man out of the creek.
The fellows clothing was saturated
with water while the temperature at
that hour was quite down to the freez-
ing point. In order that he might be
given the benefit of the warmth and
his clothing dried. still unconscious,
the man was carried to the bath house
connected with the foundry of the
stove works.
Here his clothing was hung up to
dry and he was dressed in suit which
one of the workingmen had worn to
work that morning. Meanwhile mes
senger was sent for DR.. Stock, who ar
rived at the stove works in due time.
DR.. Stock notified Officer Voris of
what had occurred and the latter ar
rived at the stove works a short time
after the doctor followed in a few
minutes by Chief Mincemoyer.
Meanwhile everything possible was
done to bring the man back to con-
scioususss but without much success.
On bis person was found watch and
chgin. s6 05 in cash three clean col
lars, an eEsra Hecktie aud two pairs of
clean socks He was fairly we'll dress
ed
There was nothing to indicate that
the man had been drinking and the
physician could unr state for GER
tainty what had brought about his un
fortunate condition. In uddition to
the above named articles on his per-
son was found a time check of the
Greenwood mines at Minoeaa, operat-
Ell b" tho Delaware and Hudson COM
pany. which indicated that the man g
name was Michael Mahoney.
For the want of more. suitable
place tile unconscious man was hauled
from the stove works to the hospital
room at the county Jail, where he was
put tn bed. Here the stranger later re-
gained consciousness, although he still
seemed much bewildered and thought
he vas in Scranton.
1t seems reasonably certain that the
man fell off the culvert into the creek,
but how long he had laiu in the water
when discovered is not known. Mino.
Okla is about five miles from Scranton
and in order to clear mp the mystery,
if possible, the chief.of- police of Scran-
ton was called up by our officers Fri
day and acquainted with the affair
In reply the Scranton chief said he
would send M officer out to Minooka
and see what could be learned about
the man.
