The Great Baptist Conference of Pre-

Wide-spread Interest—Views of Drs.
Crosby, Cuyler, Ta Image, and Other
Famous Divines.

New York, Dec. (j.—ls the second com
ing of the Lord at han 1*
This is clearly the opinion of many of the
men who took part in the proceedings of the
Baptist conference held in Brooklyn re
cently. Many are men, too, whose opin
ions cannot be treated lightly or with dis-
respect.
Late agitation of the subject has awak
ened the interest of all Christendom in an
item of faith which has found few open
advocates since the death of “Father”
Miller.
The Baptists are not alone in furnishing
yire-millencialists. Their ranks are
strengthened by the joining of large num
bers of Presbyterians, of evangelists and re
vivalists of other denominati .ns, and ti
the great mass of Christians generally.
Christ’s spe*dr advent is something ti
Inspire the popular heart and to fire the
public imagination. The Baptist confer
enee seems to be but the beginning of a
great revival destined to extend far and
wide.
It is interesting to no - e how prominent
clergymen regard this certainly significant
movement, and the views of representative
preachers of various denominations in New
York and Brooklyn are herewith given.
I asked a pr minent pre-itilileonialist who
were the leading men in the movement. He
replied that they were t o numerous to men
tion, but among them wore Dr. Charles C.
Ilall and l>r. Dixcnuf Brooklyn. J. Hudson
Tavlor, missionary to the China Island mis
sion aid most of the 3WJ missiona les under
him. Rev. lir. Arthur T. Pierson, editor of
the Mitsiuna, / Kerific, Dr. George F. Pen
tecost, Rev. Dr. James H. Brooks of
St. Louis, Rev. Dr. C. D. Margins of the
McCormick Neological Seminary in
Chicago. Prof. T. J. Duffield of Princeton,
B.shop Nicholson of the Reformed Episco
pal church in Philadelphia. ltv. P. S. Hon
son, a prominent Baptist f Chicago, Prof.
F. G <iet. D. 1)., of Switzerland, Rev. A.
R. Fawcett, Canon of York. England, I>.
L. Moody, the evangelist, and Charles L.
Robinson, the hymn book cumniier. Rev.
A. B. Prichard, pastor of the Cumberland
Street Presbyterian church, Brooklyn, is an
outspoken and enthusiastic believer in Pre
milieDniaiism.
-‘I consider,” he said, “that an unbiased
study of the scriptures can result only in
one’s hearty appr val of the pre-millennial
theory of" interpretation. How one ran
obey the oft repeated injunctions of scf-io
ture to look for the Lord’s appearaucs if a
millennium of time at least is po intervene
between tbisar.d his advent, is to me a con
tradiction of termsj which lain
unable to reconcile, while at the
same time the fact that the
church of N-*w Testament times aimi’tedly
lived and labored in the auticipati n of
Christ's imminent second coming, leads me
to the conclusion that this, and this only,
is the true hope of Christ’s church until he
come.
“Interpreting the language of scripture
by the same rule which would lie applied to
the interpretation of any other book there
can be to my mind but oae meaning to the
frequent scripture references to Christ’s
second advent, and 1 utterly repudiate the
custom of spiritualizing that, which in any
other literary work would lie judged by the
common rules of grammar— tj be capable
only of litoral interpretation.
“Iu regard to the recent conference, I
■would bear tbU testimony,th at it was char
acterized by a spirit of humble waiting
upon God. The subjects successively treated
were the offices and work of the holy spirit,
the character, purposes and power of the
church and the second coming of the Lord
as the church’s one and sufficient hepo and
inspiration of service.
“I am thoroughly convinced, after four
teen years’ earnest study and observation,
that ignorance and prejudice are, if not the
rule, at least the chief causes of opposition
to the pre-millotmial system.”
Rev. George C. Needham, the Baptist
evangelist, whose home is atMaachester-hy
the-Sea, si enks most hopefully of the out
come of the conference, in which he took ua
active part.
"There are four thing? we intend to do,”
he said, “that have not yet been madj pub
lic. First, we are to publish a book of con
ference addresses. In the next place, we
shall, on Jan. 1, issue an organ to express
the real, not fictitious views of the I're
tnillennialists. Then we will establish a per
manent summer schools line where on the
coast to teach our faith. Lastly, we are to
continue our annual conferences. The Rev.
Dr. Gordon of Boston invited us to meot
there next year, but we have not yet
decided whether it shall be Boston or Balti
more.
“YVe are accused of taking scriptural
meanings figuratively and vice vrsa. The
fact is that we never do so except when
perfectly justified. The first inillenniahsts
are really the one3 who are guilty of what
they charge us. What we are contending
for is a fair, candid, verbal interpi-etation
of the scriptures. They talk as if they were
mere enthusiasts. \v hy, Rev. C. H. Spur
geon, the noted English preacher, is an out
and out Pre-millennialist. So are nir.e
tenths of the best seholars in Germany and
England. Would you believe it, it is here
in America, of all countries, that the pre
inilleunial theory meets with most opposi
tion!
“Thi3 faith we profess has been the faith
of the Baptists ever since the time of the
Apostles, as we can prove by history. Of
the twenty-two Baptist ministers in Balti
more, twenty-one are Pro-millonnialista.”
Rev. Dr. .Samuel Mcßride, another strong
Brc-miUcnnialist, said:
‘‘lt is strange to note how we are misrep
resented, oven by the religious papers, such
as the Christian Examiner. They accuse
us of expecting Christ’s advent in this gen
eration, that we object to the belief that he
may come within, say, a thousand years,
and that we insist he will come in our day.
All these are misstatements. We maintain
no such ground. We claim he will come
before, not after the millennium.”
No pastor has worked harder with tongue
and pen in the service of the Divine master
than the venerable Dr. Theodore F. Cuyler,
late of the Lafayette Avenue Presbyterian
church in Brooklyn, who less than a year ago,
after some half a century of earnest toil in
his parish, retired from the pastorate, and is
now engaged in preaching the word of God
throughout the country.
“Pre-millennialism,” he said to me, “I
have alwaj-s, fought shy of. Not that I
myself have ever had any serious doubts on
the subject, but there has been many mem
bers of my dock whose faith in it was
strong, and i did not want to trouble their
minds with disturbing doubts by any words
of mine. Then again there are many min
isters for whom 1 have the highest esteem
aud regard who think that way and they
are good, sincere men. I am, however,
frank to say that I don’t believe in it. I
don’t think that the second advent of Christ
is to precede the judgment day. There is
nothing in the scriptures that can be made
to say so.
“.Several years ago the pre-millennialists
held a meeting in New York. It was the
most representative meeting of their mem
bers over held. The whole subject was
tboq gone over and their ablest men dis
cussed it. There was Brooks, for instance,
of St. Louis, their biggest man. 1 well
remember hu ninety-nine reasons for hi*
lieiiof. W by, the majority of them had no
more to do with the subject than they hud
with the McKinley bill.
"1 wu then a member of the Cbl Alpha
club. In its tncmltertbip w ere many of the
leading nnnut n of the country. Starrs
nnd Beecher hail belonged to it but had
dropped out. Hchaaf was a member.
Ho was Hill aud a number of othurs
wjga iy tied known. There were thirty-
! five of u, and after each day’s session
•tt the pre-mi.lenniallsta we would go
I over the same ground. Nothing that they
! brought forward had any weight witn us.
Now, if that was the case with so large a
b dy of the .logical thinkers, it showed that
that the argument* of the pre-millennia lists
were net so convincing as they themselves
imagined.
“Yet I again admit there have been and
are many sincere men iu their rants. H ra
tio Bonnar, the celebrated byinnist of
Great Britain, was one. He sang it. he
h veined it, he talked it, he enthusiastically
lelieved in it. Btill, outside of his hymns,
he was a thorough polemic. Moody is
another who believes in it. He does not, of
course, rank with Bonnar. Dr. Tyne never
went to bed without expecting to see the
L rd the next day. My friend Pentieost is
another enthusiastic believer.
“They certainly are earnest. I lock upon
them as imbued with mysticism. Bonnar
was as great a mystic as one ever met.
I'hev are positive, 100, no doubt of that. 1
might say of them as Smith said of Mac
auiey: *1 wish I was as sure of anything as
you are of everything.’
“Chri s t, it appears to me, whn The was on
earth, completed his work. JThere is no
reason why he should come again. It is a
reflection on his mission here t>- say that
diabolism cannot be put down. Wasn’t his
plan for the world’s regeneration perfect?
\V hy should he be expected to alter it ! ”
It ia a rare religions idea in which Dr.
lie Witt Talmuze has not something
timely and readable to say. The subject
of Pre-mllionmalDm he admits, however, is
rather out of his line.
•‘I have i.ot given it os much thought,”
he said, “as perhaos other clergymen
have; and they may be right and I
wrong. Still, my own belief is and has
always been that Christ will not re-ap
pear on earth until the judgment day.
I do not speak authoritatively. Y'ou s<-e
there are Christian men who make special
study of certain branches and are most
competent, theref re, to discuss them.
Then thero are those who study the lan
guages, others the arc ;r- uozical confir
mation and others again i lie geographical
confirmation—any one of which is the pur
suit of a whole lifetime. The ITt-mdlenni
nlists, many of wnom I know and entertain
the friendliest and highest opinion < f, have
maie the Scriptures the subject of the most
thorough thought and investigation. It
would not become us, therefore, todenounco
th ir belief as false, when for all I know to
the contrary they may have arrived at the
truth. I have read the prisceedings of the
conference with the greatest interest, but
yet not so thoroughly as to feel like ex
pressing any decided opinion on the views
presented.
“I don’t concede that the world in so
given up to the d*vil as tho pre-millenniai
ists believe. I think that Christ has given
us all that is necessary to carry on the fight
against sin. He says that the Holy Ghost
is to be the comforter.
“I mey say that certain religionists are
sp"cialtist*. There are the holiness people,
for example. Tney believe that they have
leached a state where they are sinless. May
be they are. I know I have not reached
that stage, and 1 don’t know any one who
has.”
Yet, tho Christian Herald , of which
Dr. Talmage is editor, has pre-millennium
tendencies.
Dr. Howard Cro-by is quite emphatic in
declaring that ho does not believe in pre
millennialisrn.
“The trouble with the followers of thi3
faith,” he said to me, “is that they read the
scriptures to suit themselves. They take as
figurative what is literal and as literal what
is figurative iu the Bible. 1 cannot see any
reason for thinking as they do.’’
I asked the well-known Dr. A. J. F. Beh
rinds wtint ho thought of it all.
"Not much,” he replied, “it will not
amount to anything great. It is oae of the
episodes in the history of Christianity. It
is like a strong current that dashes up
against a rock and is beaten bick again.
Why, sir, in short, it is simply 0.. e of tho
eccentricities of tho times.”
MISS MACGOWAN
On Her Travels in Search of Infor
mation.
Tom Green Couxty, Texas, Dec. 4.—1
am extremely old, hard of heart, without
much sentiment left and fast losing faith in
*!.o generality of mankind in general, but I
have what I sometimes think is the mis
fortune to appear many years younger than
I am, with a round, soft-looking face aud
hig, unsophisticated eyes.
In the wilds of the Carolina mountains,
whore I have recently been traveling among
the kindly and cbivilrous mountaineers, i v
out here on the praries of West Texas, it is
true this appearance does rae yeoman serv
ice, amt procures to me tho kindest and
most considerate treatment. 1 have more
than once been called "Sis,” and every
body takes care of and looks out for me.
But tn the cities through which 1 mnst
pass, at the hotels and upon the railways,
this deceptive aspect of youthful softness
is responsible for my often being fleeced—
robbed without compunction. "What
is ray bill?” I ask of the
dignitary behind the hotel register; he looks
at me benevolently, and says, “Five dol
lars,” when I know perfectly it should not
he more than three. "Just sit down in the
parlor, miss, I’ll call you when the ’bus
comes,” says the por.er, having taken stock
of my innocent countenance and air. Pres
ently her ushes in with profuse excuses for
having forgotten me when the ’bus came,
but he has secured a carriage with a most
obliging driver, who will run his horses all
the way to the depot to get mo there in
time, for only $1 53. We go—l can’t afford
to miss my train, and I am confident the
porter and driver share the $1 50.
And bo the story goes; but I have a
scheme—a scheme wßich 1 am sure no or
dinary mind would ever have conceived,
for securing an inexpensive and irreproach
able traveling companion, who will at onco
rescue me from all such annoyances.
1 shall insert tho following advertisement
in several leading journals: “Wanted—As
traveling companion and chaperone pro
tector to a lone young woman, the ghost of
elderly lady or gentleman severely respect
able, and somewhat stern aud forbidding
aspect. Duties light, ghost’s mere presence
being all usually required; will be expected
to furnish stony glares for hotel clerks,
hackmeu, and all presuming and imperti
nent people when necessary,and to promptly
dematerialize at tne approach of the con
ductor and whenever not wanted. None
but ghosts of superior breeding and uncom
promising bearing need apply.”
Provided with such a companion, ally
and defender, one at once so inexpensive,
convenient and irreproachable in appear
ance, I can safely go anywhere without
fear of criticism, molestation, or imposi
tion upon my unprotected youth aud igno
rance.
1 began to realize, after I had traveled
southward and westward from Fort Worth
some hundreds of miles, that I was in
Texas, and getting out pretty well onto the
frontier of the state. It is tiio country of
breezy, nonchalant manners, jocular locil
nomenclature and free-handed generosity
and hospitality. 1 began to heir such re
marks as “you’re not paving for me;” “O,
yes, that’s all right,” m the Pullman car; or
at the dining table; “O, put up that—l’m
paying.”
More than once I rode from the depot in
a carriage with several others, and never
succeeded in learning who paid my fare.
The table at the railroad Uotel where we
ate supper the last night out was a striking
picture. All around it was a line of sun
burned men eating like cormorants and
looking as lierco and fell us pirates, with
their Dig whito cowboy hats or silver
trimmed sombreros pulled down over eyes
that have acquired a strained iutentness
from gazing over the plains in march of
•tray ing sheep or cattle. But tho-e grim
looking fellows will "roar you os gently a*
a sucking dove.” A more genuine exhibi
tion of courtesy you will not see than the
attentive and solicitous manner m which
they proffered me the ham, the chicken, or
the pie, in big, lias* voices carefully brought
down to piaiiitaimu.
TIIE MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1890—TWELVE PAGES.
San Angelo is the county site of Tom
Green county, and the only city, center of
trade and supplies, cf the whole Concho
country. This is a great tra-*t, including
Tom Green and several other counties, a
grazing, horse, sheep and cattle ranching
district, draped by the three Gimcha riven.
It ii largely level or rolling prairies, witn a
good proportion cf fertile “draws” or va -
leys. It used to tie thought that farming
could ouly be carried on with the assistance
of irrigation, because of ths long intervals
between the ralnfa.ls; but m tLe las’- three
yearn astonishing results have been produce 1
from dry land farming. I saw at the
Concho Valley Fair, which wes
iu progress at San Angelo when
I arrived, pumpkins which would have
needed very little magic enlargement to
furnish a Cinderella’s coach, and sweet
potatoes so immense they would have
caused Sambo s heart to s well with emotion,
and fairly wooed a possum into dofliog his
skin and lying down beside them to be
baked in such good company.
A West Texas crowd is the best natured
crowd in the world. Out fere on these
boundless savannahs, where there is plenty
cf air and sunshine und land for everybody,
where the east wi-d comes from the “Bay
of Biscay, (J,” and the west wind seems to
blow to ns from over the Emperor of ifb.na’s
palace, where there is an unbounded sense
of freedom and a chance for everybody that
will half try, nobody seems to think it
worth while to be mean, or small, or cap
tious. Their faults, like their stature and
their virtues, are on a good, big scale.
There was a larger proportion than in the
east of great, lung, fine-looking, white
hatted, sunburn** 1 masculinity. The
women, too, are different from their east
ern sist-rs. Tney have had enough experi
ence of ranching, or the vicissitudes of
-emi-froncier life, to cure them of being
fussy or carping over little, inconveniences
delays and hitches in the programme. So
in the ioDg waits between heats, there is no
grumbling, swearing nor fretful com
plaints ; instead, the men chaff each other
and guy everything that presents itself,
and toe women laugh anl talk gopd hu
moredly.
The hand was stationed on the grand
stand, somewhat to one side of the crowd,
and discoursed good, robust, able-bodied
music. It was rather clo-e, 1 admit, but it
did not make me half so tired as the con
tinued complaints of a rather dapper look
ing young man just behind our party.
Those fell *ws were deafening him, he said,
it was an outrage to have such a clam r
there among t e people. Finally he ex
claimed angrily; "I wish every one of
those galoots would burst his diaphragm.”
“Huh,” sail a six aud a-half foot cow
boy. away back in a corner, in the tone and
key ho would employ to a refractory cow,
"they bain’t got none on!”
We all burst with a perfect roar of de
light. in the midst of which the dapper fel
low withdrew, leaving the band bloning
itself back in the face, and the cowboy,
who was not as green as he looked, winking
confidentially to the crowd.
I attended a dance last week out at the
XL. ranch. There were cowboysjgalore,
and a comfortable proportion of toe fair
sex. We danced quadrilles, reels and
roundups, because only a small percentage
of the participants could “rassle” success
fully with the round dances.
The roundup is a big quadrille, with the
couples in one gr. at set all around the room.
Each couple goes through every “ail round”
figure,so it takes about three-quarters of an
hour and thirteen miles of fast traveling to
complete the dance, but the cowboy enthusi
asm is infectious, and I wont on aud on
through endless “figure eights,” “peavines,”
and “all ail bauds round,” unconscious of
such a tbiug as fatigue, laughing and caper
ing with the best of them.
There is a weed which grows in places on
the prairies which, when eaten by cattle or
h uses, has the effect of making them crazy
for a time. They run backward, and rush
about in a frightful, but, at tho same time,
often ludicrous maimer. The Mexican name
of the weed is "loco,” and cattle or horses
that have eaten it are said to be “locoed.”
Well, there was a little girl at this dance, a
child of Pi or 13, but with ail the mature
composure of 30, who danced very well aha
with great energy. But in the last round
up she had for a partner a great, awkward
boy of about 10, who couldn’t get through a
single figure. He hod heavy, high-heeled,
cowboy boots outside his trousers, and he
fell over the girl’s feet, hig own, and -every
body else’s, finally tripping them both up,
when they retired from the fray, their in
glorious retreat gracefully cover and by the
prompter with a “grand right and left.”
When I presently sat down I found my
self beside the little girl. Before I could
say a word sho turned to me with all the
self-possession and sangfroid of a seasonsd
society woman and remarked: “Hub! 1
think my pardner’s sorter locoed.” The tone
and the manner in which she put her head
on one side and stuck out her little elbows
wvreu approachable.
During oaeof the roundups which I didn’t
dance, the ranch manager, a very bright and
agreeable young man, told njie this tragic
tale of a cat hunt:
"It was awfully hot, and the mosquitoes
were very bad about the house, so we were
ail—the seven boys of us—sleeping out on
top of that big haystack. (There was no
woman at the ranch.)
“About 1 o'clock one morning we were
awakened by a shouting and laughing, and
when we peeped over the edge of the stack,
there was the whole thirteen outfit, ladies
and all, and two New York girls, regular
hummers, that were visiting there. They
got off their ponies and hooped and ham
mered around the house yelling to us to come
out. ‘You’ve got to get up; we’re going to
huve our supper and a dance here,’ says Jim
Smith, ‘where in thunder are you?’
“ ‘Mere,’ says I, up on the haystack.’ They
all came chaffing around the haystack.
‘What in the world are you and Ing up there?
Why don’t you come down?’says ono of
them New York girls.
‘“Well, our dressing room’s in the house,
ladles,’ says I, ‘and we can’t come down
very well oi account of its beiugsuch bright
moonlight.”
“They went off mighty quick around tho
house, we got in and dressed, and were just
shaking hands all ’round when one of the
dogs started a chicken, or a rabbit, or a
kitten, and it lit right through the middle
of the crowd.
“One of those New York girls let off an
unearthly screech, I saw something white
bob up on top of the haystack, and down
rolled Jake Long, that sleeps like the dead,
and hadn’t been missel in our rush for the
house.
ou never seen such a stampede In your
life. Those women yelled like catamounts,
and run in every direction. Jake made a
streak like a jack-rabbit with a greyhound
after it, for the house, and we couldn’t get
him to coma out to supper nor to dance,
though he’s our crack lady’s man.”
