HOW FIRST CHURCH
IS BEING FILLED
s. /
Ministers of Various Den0mina-
lions Heard While Board Is
Making Up Its Mind.

The officials of the old First Presby-
terrain Church. of which the Rev. DR..
Davi R. Frazer was recently pastor,
is adopting a unique method of getting
an idea what kind of new pastoral
timber is wanted. To get the proper
pew-drawing status of applicants, the
board is filling the pulpit each sue
ceeding Sabbath with a clergyman rep
~resenting the different creeds, a some7
what unusual procedure for a church,
that is the oldest in the city, and that
has been strictly orthodox in the past.
Yesterday the services were con-
du"t"d by the Rev. DIR. Henry Baker, a
former pastor of st. Paul's M. e.
Church, this city, who is a pronounced
type of the broadminded Calvanistic
Methodist. Last Sunday, the Rev. Rob
ert 7. Graham. a modern-schooled
knoXite Presbyterian, filled the pulpit,
Next Sabbath another divine, 1t is I'M
derstood, of non-Presbyterian afflia-
lions will discourse from Newarks
pioneer pulpit. The trustees will, of
course, eventually extend the call to a
sound-doctrined disciple of Presby-
terianism, who can strongly rival the
young divines of the sister creeds.

The South Baptist Church copgrega-
ton yesterday had the pleasure of eX-
tending a welcome to their former pas

in Hartford. when accorded a unani-
nous call that he could not side track,
When the present pastor, the Rev.
Clark T. Brownell, came as his sue
cessor here it was most gratifying to
DIR. Fennell.
DR.. Brownell had promised his con-
gregation, some time ago, thai he
would have a surprise in store for them
this summer, and the reunion of pas
tor and flock, Yesterday realized that
promise.

MANY ATTEND FUNERAL
OF MRS. SARAH>A. PALMER.
Was Long Closely Identified with
Missionary Work Here.

A large representation of local church
women attended the funeral services
held over the remains of Mrs. Sarah
A. Palmer. the S3-year-old widow of
the late Rev. A. M. Palmer, who for
several years was a missionary in his
city and a former treasurer of the
Newark Methodist Conference, which
will be held this afternoon in the Rose
vile M. E. Church.
Mrs. Palmer for many years was
closely identified with missionary work
in this city. Her sudden demise in
Somerville on Saturday, which resulted
from the infirmities of old age, was a
great shock to her friends here.
The many local churches were well
represented at the o~bsequies. The in
terment was made in Paramount Gene

CHR|STLESS MAN
SPIRITUALLY DEAD
Not Alive to the Appeal of the
Highest, Declares the Rev.
Samuel ]. Skevington.

During the course of his sermon in
union service with the Calvary Pres
byterian Church yesterday morning,
the Rev. Samuel ]. Skevington re-
marked that the Christless nan is
spiritually dead, dead and blind to the
beauty of holiness and of the presence
and power of God.
Speaking of the vision of God, Mr.
Skevington adduced the experience OF
Ezekiel, the tragic prophet of Israe
during the dark days of the captivity,
in the following summary:
The dreariest prophesies of jeremiah
had been fulfilled. Judah was con
quered and trodden under foot by the
victorious Babylonians. Jerusalem was
an inglorious mass of ruins. The tenn
pie was desecrated and destroyed, and
the sun of the chosen people seemed
to have sunk in a sea of blood. But
the prophet did not hang his harp or
the willows; he did not sit down by
the river Chebar in despair. Ezekie
had caught a vision of God, and the
inspiration of that vision bore him
up as on the mighty pinions of ar
eagle. mine eyes have seen the
King" That was the secret of his I'M
conquerable hope and the source OF
ton Of his people.
Recalling the vision of dry bones
the preacher declared that that would
have driven any other mar to despair
He would have said, Elijah may have
restored the widows son to life, ano
a greater than the Tishbite may YET
bring back to life a Lazarus foul days
dead, but to revivify this mass o.
scattered bones, to aust them to live
again, that can never be-" and tc
the question of the Lord. Son of Man
can these bones live?" he would havt
replied, mo; they cannot. But Ezekie
had had a vision of God; he knew
somewhat of the infinite o
the Lord; he knew that nothing wa
impossible with God, and so he obeyed
he prophesied, and behold, an exceed
ing great army" And here we are
standing on the battlefield of life, will
the bones of the dead all around us
HE that hath not the Son of Coo
hath not the life" The Christless maj
is spiritually dead, dead and blind t
the beauty of holiness, dead and dea
to the appeal of the Highest. dead anc
all unconscious of the presence anC
power of God.
Nothing but the inspiration of tn
vision Of God can establish the hear
in the faith of the gospel of the cross
the gospel of the resurrection and tn
life.

DR.. MORGAN CHOSEN FOR
OCEAN GROVE SERVICES,
Local Clergymen in Demand at
Summer Resorts.

That local clergymen seem to be in
demand as leaders at the noted summer
resorts was emphasized today when the
Rev. DR.. William H. Morgan, pastor
of the Central NJ. =. Church, in Market
street, was chosen to conduct the serv-
ices at the Young Peoples Temple i in
Ocean Grove during the month of
August.
He will succeed a former Newark
divine, the Rev. DR.. Charles L. Mead,

as it brings the clergyman before au-
diences made up of church deacons
from every section of the country, who
may be seeking a new pastor.

Early in the year 1861 the tocsin
of war was sounded from "Poto-

best of our South land were enlist

states, to HE away to the tented field,
Washington Arkansas, - the dear
Old town, WAS not whit behind
any othea of her sister towns of
Arkansas. Soon the "Hempstead
Rifemer4," ander command +
Captain, afterwards Colonel, Jno.
r. Gratiot, and the Hampstead
Cavalry, under command of Capt,
Geo. Gamble, were ready to march
to the front to meet the invaders on
the northwest part OF their state.
No two commands in all the land of
/ Dixie contained braver and more
patriotic band OF young Southern
manhood. Old Hampstead county
had contributed her best, tluest
and bluest blood to make up the
rank and file of these two companies
The day came for their dc parture,
and the presentation of a beautiful
banner to the Hampstead Rifles.
The company, i'll their bright new
gray uniforms, were drawn up on
one side OF the street. In front of
the anti bellum hotel, on horseback
sat a bright and beautiful daughter
Of old Hampstead county, with the

SOW CAUSES TROUBLE
To Parties Who Tried to Evacuate
Her From Field.

Special to the TELEGRAPH.
0zan, Sept. IA sow belonging
to Squire A, J. Robins proceeded
to disregard the morals of t h e
Herr pstead county hog law by tres
passing on the premises of a corn
patch owned by B. A. Hdrtsiield.
Mr.. Hartsfeld, with detachment
f his friends, tried to force the
I'D creature to evaeuate, but the
pattle was won in favor of the Old
sow, who drove them out at a
frightful speed. Elmore, the son
of A. j. Robins, was informed Of
the condition existing on the Harts-
fed premises, expressed his opinion
of absolute assurance of his bravery
against hogs of all tribes, repaired
at once to the scene of the tumult
with his skin filled with thoughts
OF war and battle,
After arriving, his war thoughts
stood the test, butthe old SOW caused
the "battlements" /" to gravitate to
his feet, resulting in his losing no
time in climbing a cherry tree,
where h e suffered considerable
nerve prostration until the enemy
withdrew in disgust of warfare.
Gilmore came down and delivered
his person over the fence in speed
that would have given credit to a
lightning express, keeping this
speed until he secured a shot gun
He returned to the retreated ground
and injected dose of shot beneath
the cuticle of his foe.

young officers, Lieut Geo Taylor.
This occasion and incident made an
impression on my mind that mem
ory will never obiterate. Oh! the
grand and noble young men who
heard the words Of that bright and
beautiful young lady, Miss Bette
Conway, as she, in the name of
their mothers, fathers, friends and
neighbors and sweet hearts, babe
them God speed in their efforts to
act the part of patriotic defenders
of their homes and fire sides. Only
a few are left who were present on
that memorable day. Four long
years of bloody war followed-many
fell on the first feld-Langston,
Wilson, Simms, Worsham, Car
rigan, and perhaps others, gave up
their young lives and. sealed their
devotion to the cause by pouring
out life's current on the field in the
first conflict with the invaders.
After the fearful conflict ended,
those who still survived came back
to their ruined and desolate homes,
and those same bright eyed Mary's
and dark haired Susan's met them
as though they d been the vietors,
linking their fortunes with these
brave soldier lads and becoming
their partners in the rehabilitation
of our sunny land. Oh what do
we owe to the cd Veterans, their
wives and their children? Stranger
open your eyes and behold this
bright and happy South-land-they
made it. They have builded better
than they knew, and no set Of
people on Gods green earth are
more loyal to their country than
the old Confederate and his pos
terity Did not his sons stand
shoulder to shoulder with the song
of the Union Veteran in the late
Spanish-Ameriean war?
But the general public does not
know that the principal actors IN
that flag presentation later became
man and wife. Capt. Geo. Taylor
became the husband of Miss Bette
Conway, who, with her two sons
lives in the home of her childhood
In the suburbs of Washington.
Another incident, after the pre-
sentation ceremony as the gallant
Company was marching away, one
fine looking young cavalryman rode
by the stand where Miss Conway
and the other ladies were bidding
good by to their departing friends,
and lifting his hat in graceful
manner, repeated these lines from
Byron;
"Fare thee well and if for ever;
Still for ever fare thee we'll"
and he rode gallantly away. That
was John Carligan, one of tn G
bravest of the brave, who fell at
the battle of Oak Hills.

TESTED BY OVER
$4,000 ARKANSAS BABIES
Report on Important Test-Shows
Wonderful Record. Offer OF
100000 for Improvement

September |, ended the 3 months
test of Brooks Blood Balm, under
the proposition i'll the much ad-
vertised article, "25, 900 ARKAN
sAS BABIES WANTED. "
The extent to which it has been
taken advantage of, is fully dem
onstrated by the fact that, from the
best estimates obtainable, instead
of 1000, fully 10000 Arkansas
Babies have given this Germicide a
test under this proposition.
The results of this test the fol
lowing statement verifies:
"We, The Wm. Brooks Medicine
Co., proprietors of Brooks Baby
Bowel Balm, hereby state that we
have manufactured and sold this
remedy with great success for over
10years, always guaranteeing every
bottle to give. sati faction or money
refunded without question as pro
vided by our Refund Draft enclosed
in every package. We have given
much time and thougEtto perfecting
the formula of this remedy, by
carefully watching the results OF its
use and making valuable additions
where Indicated, the last addition
beng made about 2 years ago, after
which to all appearances, perfection
had been reached
The past summer we decided TO
make a special test Of its merit on
25, 600 Aekansas Babies, thereby,
if possible, arriving at a per cent
of cures or failures on which to base
our calculations. 1t will be remem-
hered that in this proposition we
only made claim of so per cent of
cures for Baby Balm, although We
fully believed that it would run
higher. TG. our gresta as. sa,R.isstai.- ,.al2 ..,ista.-
however, we have to report that
from the large stock Of Baby Balm
on the market in Arkansas aud other
states, remaining unsold from 10
years wholesale distribution, and
from the large amount used and
sold III Arkansas this season under
our special test proposition, not one
failure to cure has been reported to
us during the year 1909 and n t one
request for refund of money under
our guarantee, hut to the contrary
reports of phenomenal cures have
been great
Having had 20 wears practical
experience III prescription and lab
ratory work and carefully studying
the therapeutic action OF compounds
we feel sure that we know the value
of this compound and its wonderful
record of cures warrants the opinion
that ii is not only eGaal but superior
to all baby remedies now on the
market or III private use, and we
will give 81 coo for prescription
or formula that viii produce II
greater per cent OF cures than Baby
Balm. We villa give 500 for
Il case of Bowel Infection in children
that will not yield to Baby Balm if
given persistently nnderour specific
directions from the beginning.
