to find such traits. Christ's knowI-
euSe or men was complete, and no
one ever manifested such large con-
hoence IN them as He. Upon them He
made the heaviest demands because He
knew they were capable of marvellous
development. With them He entrust-
ed the stupendous task of establish

well understood that multitudes of

NEGLECT OF SALVATION
GOD is PROVIDING.
Worst Sin the World is Committing
Today, Says Rev. P. c. Wright
Special Music by Harpist.

How shall we escape if we neglect
so great salvation was the text for a
searching sermon by the pastor, Rev
P G. Wright, at the Sunday evening
service at the Central Baptist church
before a large congregation. This he
stated was a question for all to think
over and seek an answer for. 1t was
by no paltry sum that your salvation
and mine was purchased 1t took no
less than the life that WAS the very
image of Gods person to walk lfeS
devious ways and at the end die by
the greatest ignominy known by man.
There is none other name given among
men under heaven whereby we may
be saved. You have not got to be a
murderer to be lost, nor need you be-
tray every virtue and do every evil
that you know It is neglect-negIect
of the salvation that God has provided.
That is the worst sin that the world is
committing today. Are you neglecting
this salvation, or have you heard in
your soul the voice that says: BE
hold, the lamb of God that taketh away
the sin of the world2"
The special music for the evening
service had for its feature Miss Bee
Mayes of Boston, harpist, who was
heard with great pleasure in three Sc
lectionS. Her first was Handels Lar

REV. JOHN M'cARTHY'S
RESIGNATION ACCEPTED.
Goes Into Effect April I, After Thir-
teen Years as Pastor in Huntington,
w. Va.

Regarding Rev. John Mccarthy, for
merly of this city, the Huntington,
w Va, Advertiser says:
with expressions of deep regret the
members Of the First Congregational
church last night CFeb. p accepted the
resignation of their pastor, Rev. John
Mccarthy Although the resignation,
which WAS rendered several weeks ago,
choice in matter of acceptance, many
of the members of the congregation
expressed their devotion to the pastor
by negative votes The resignation will
go into effect on April I, at which time
Mr.. Mccarthy will have completed a.
pastorate of thirteen years.
The tender OF Mr.. McCarthy's resig-
nation created great surprise in the
city. Mr.. Mccarthy is one of the best
known clergymen in the state, having
prominence in both religious and sec
ular circles He has long been lead
er in educational and reform work,
and his influence is widely recognized.
His prominence and popularity and the
aniable relations which had ever ex-
listed between himself and his congre-
cation were the features which made
the tender of his resignation surpris-
ing.
"On accepting the resignation the
church designated a committee which
viii draft resolutions in which the re-
greet of. the church that the relations
between it and the pastor and his wife
are to be altered will be expressed.
Mr.. Mccarthy has not yet announc-
ed his plans for the future, though he
was offered that he would probably re-
main in Huntington. The people of the
CITY are anxious that he remain stead
fast in this intention
LAS yet the church has taken no
steps to secure a successor to Mr. Nc
Carthy. although the names of several
able c1ergynen have been submitted
for consideration.

WANTS HONORABLE DISCHARGE.
Bill Favorable to Hieganun Postmas-
ter Introduced by Senator Buckley.

Senator Buckley has introduced a bill
to grant an honorable discharge to
Edward D. Gilbert of Higganuu1, who
is charged with desertion from Com
pany |, 21st Connecticut Volunteers.
This is a very peculiar case, and one in
which Senator BullSeley is greatly ir
terested. Gilbert served win his regi-
ment until March g. 1855, when the reg
iment was ordered home to be muster
ed out At that time Gilbert discov-
cred that he was not on the original
muster roll, although he had been with
the regiment all the time, but had
drawn nc pay. The colonel of the reg
iment told him he could not be mus
tered out, as he had no record of his
having been mustered in, SO Gilbert
went home. A muster roll in the war
department has just been discovered
which contains the name of Edward D.
Gilbert as having served as indicated,
and the war department acknowledges
that q mistake was made and Gilbert
should have been carried on the rolls
all the time. The fact that he was not
mustered out, however, bars him, tech
nically, from getting an honorable dis
charge and congress only can remove
the charge of desertion. Mr.. Gilbert is
the postmaster of HigganJlIn, and has
bean for many years.

MAENNERcHoR BALL
Was Great Success-Plans for an
Addition to Hall in Spring.

The Taftville Maennerchor gave a
masquerade ball in their hall on Sat
urday evening, and it proved a. most
enjoyable event, being fully up to their
tendance of 200, which included people
from the city, Plainfield and SPRING
field, Mass, insured its success from
a financial standpoint.
Participating in the well executed
grand march, led by Henry Troeger
and his niece. Miss Annie Troeger,
We're forty masked couples, among
them costumes representing all ma
lions, the red white and blue being es-
pecially noticeable. An orchestra of
nerchor, furnished the music.
In charge of the ball were John II.
LEOPOLD, the efficient president of the
Maennerchor; ably assisted by Oscar
Doetsch, George Seidei and Martin
Krauss.
AS result of the growth of the
Maennerchor since it was organized in
1893, a good sized addition to its pres
ent home is being considered by the
members, and the probability is that
the work will be done this spring. An
addition of about so feet in the length
of the building is planned, making it
so feet long and 40 feet wide. giving
space for a. banquet hall and other
much needed room. This change is in
line with the progressive Esprit shown
by the organization in regard to i'm
provements. the latest being the in
staIlation of electric lights in the hall.
There is ample room for expansion. as
SO acres of land around the hall are
owned by the Maennerchor.
The number of singers in the society
is now thirty-six out of a total of
about 200 members. and they are now
preparing, under the direction of Prof.
John Keller of New Haven for the
state saengerfest in Hartford in June.

ming will observe Fast night follow

for d moment would contend that all

is altogether too much downright
meanness and inexcusaIble wfckedness
where we have a right to expect no
bier living. Most of us know better
than we do. There is danger in allow
ing sin to look less repulsive, less
heinous, less hideous. than 1T really
is. But while we should hate sin with
an everlasting and fiery adherence,
it is becoming and Christlil<e to love
the sinner with an everlasting love

2. 1t is well known that the finest
critics in art. literature or any other
realm are those who have clearest per-
ception and Iiveliest appreciation of
excellence. It is an accepted canon of
criticism that merits should first he
looked for and afterward the defects.
All true appreciation is the result of
keen insight and noble passion, while
the habit of despising things and per-
sons and holding them cheap is both
binding and behttling. The smallest
and weakest minds can grun1IDle and
find fault. Sensible the writer who
said:
Don't look for the flaws as you go
through life:
And even when you find them,
1t is wise and kind to be sometimes
blind
And look for the virtue behind
them.
For the cloudfest night has .. hint of
the light
Somewhere in it's shadow hiding:
1t is better by far to look for a star
Than the spots on the sun abiding"
3. It is this disposition to see the
good In people that has rendered the
Quakers influential in promoting
peace and good will among men, and
in retaining wanderers.
Look for the good in people: (a)
Because you can thus be of more serv-
ice to your fellow beings; OBJ Because
your own life will be enlarged and
ennobled thereby; (c) Because it is
godhke; It is what He does. But shall
we never criticise, never find fault?
BY all means, yes, whenever it is clear
that we can accomplish good thereby.
But never, never, simply for selfish
qualification.
