SABBATH MADE FOR MAN.
Dr. Dorman Says (.od Ordained It a
Day ol Rest From Labor.
Ho Says It is Better to Err on the
Side of Strictness Than Laxness.
Sunday Excursions and Newspapers
Condemned A Kit at the Columbian
Exposition-Mayor McDonough Ap
plauded for His Sabbath Crusade
and Christians Urged to Uphold
Him.
Rev. Dr. Dowman preached yesterday at
Wesley Monumental ehurelion the proper
observance of the Sabbath, taking his
text from Mark ii.. 37: "The Sabbath
was made for man and not man for the.
Sabbath.”
Dr. Dowman said he regretted the
tendency in some quarters to desecrate
the Lord's day and the defense of such
desecration by Christian people. He com
plimented Mayor McDonough in his
efforts to give Savannah a holy Sabbath
in trying to compel its observance as a
day of rest from labors, and indorsed the
action of the courts in backing up tho
municipal authorities by rigidly enforc
ing the penalties of the law for violations.
Dr. Dowman said all true Christians
should applaud our authorities for their
fearlessness in the matter and should
lend them every support.
ATT ACKIJiO THE SCRIPTURES.
‘‘As among the aiiostles of anew theol
ogy, "said the preacher, “the inspiration
cf the holy scriptures is the point of at
tack, so among those who are disposed to
relax in matters of morals, the sanctity
of the Sabbath is first assailed There
are few who dare to defend drunkenness,
gambling, licentiousness and the like, but
many apologize for a practical disregard
of the Lord's day. It is important to dis
cute this question now for we are threat
ened as a nation with an inundation of
loose views incident to the flowing in of a
constant stream of immigration from the
continent of Europe, which seems to look
upon Sunday as a day of carnival instead
of devotion. Another reason is the settled
purpose of tho authorities of the
Columbian exposition to set aside what
has hitherto been the English and Ameri
can Sabbath, and the fact that support
to this scheme has been given, with but
few exceptions, by the secular press.”
ISSUES OF THE LOCAL CAMPAIGN.
Coming down to home reasons for dis
cussing the Sabbath observance question,
Dr. Dowman referred to the fact that the
late municipal campaign was carried on
largely upon the issue of closing tho
saloons on Sunday aud that an effort,
more or less determined, is being made by
the officers-and courts to enforce the state
laws touching the observance of the Sab
bath.
“More than any city in the state of
Georgia,” said Dr. Dowman. “Savannah
suffers from Sabbath breaking. Our
churches are deserted, our children are
demoralized. Every Sunday the railways,
for gain, pour a multitude of pleasure
seekers into our suburban resorts, where
every sort of temptation to sin is in full
blast to make the day one of riotous liv
ing, where God is forgotten and man
thinks only of giving vent to the indulg
ence of his passions. - ’
SOT PUHITANICAL IN IIIS IDEAS.
‘‘l do not set up as obligatory,” said Dr.
Dowman. “the Pharisaical or Puritan
ideas of the Sabbath. All days are the
Lord’s, and work is as worshipful on
Monday ns prayer or praise on Sunday,
but 1 rest the observance of the Sabbath
on throe general grounds.
“First, the original institution, Gen.
ii,2, 3: ‘Six days of creation may repre
sent six periods, aud the seventh a period
of cessation from creation.’ Hence God
blessed and sanctified the seventh day as
a remembrance of God and commemora
tive of his rest. There is evidence in
Kx. xvi. that the Sabbath was not a now
institution unknown to tho Hebrews be
fore.
“Second, upon the authority of the
decalogue, where the command to observe
it stands with other moral principles.
Hence it is equally binding with the pro
hibition of idolatry, blasphemy, etc. None
of these statutes have ever been repelled.
Jesus came not to destroy, but to fulfill.
MAN AND BEAST NEED REST.
“Third, it rests upon the need of man.
It has been demonstrated that the sev
enth day rest is best adapted to the con
dition of man. This need is, according to
the scriptures, recognized for laboring
beasts us well as niau. It is as applicable
to one rude as another. The seventh day
was changed for the first to commemorate
the resurrection of the Lord.
“The attitude of Christ toward tho
Sabbath,” said Dr. Dowman, “should be
our example. His purpose was to lift its
observance from being a burdt u into the
relation of a benefit, and ho rejected the
Pharisaical interpretation. Christ made
tho Sabbath for man, and a rightly kept
Sabbath will be a delight, not a burden,
to the Christly mind. Tho object of tho
Sabbath is two fold, rest for the body and
worship for the soul, and when this ob
ject is lost sight of there is nothing that
lust and avarice will not overido.
PITY FOR THE WORKERS.
“It is a grand tribute to the power of
Christ that millions of men on that day
stop aud rest. I pity the poor railroad
men, printers, mail, telegraph and me
chanical laborers who have no rest and
know no Sabbath. There is. however,
such a 'Thing as a non-religious observ
ance-selfish rest, religious service to the
weariness of the body, exhaustion of the
mind aud spiritual dissipation. But we
have too much of the other sort —irre-
ligious observance.”
Among the things to be condemned Dr.
Dowman mentioned Sunday excursions,
Sunday- newspapers and Sunday traffic. All
of these things, lie said, keeps men work
ing instead ol restingon that day. Chris
tians seem to forget that the things which
may mean pleasures to them on Sunday
means labor to others, and until they can
make some sacrifices of such pleasures the
disregard of the Sabbatli will continue to
be a growing evil.
In concluding Dr. Dowman urged his
hearers to lend their aid and influence to
seeing that Sunday is kept, holy and made
a day of rest from worldly pursuits.
“God give us charity.” said lie, “but in
our personal conduct it is liettcr to err in
strictness than in laxness.”
THE GUARDS BACK.
Why They Lost the Ball Game in Au
gusta.
The base ball team of the Savannah
Volunteer Guards which played a team
from the Oglethorpe Light Infantry of
Augusta in that city Saturday, returned
to the city yesterday.
The Guards lost the game by a score of
16 to is, which was somewhat of a surprise
to their many friends here. In speaking
of the game yesterday one of the Guards
said that the loss of the game could be
explained very easily. They went to Au
gusta expecting to play a team
from the Oglethorpe Light In
fantry, but instead they had
to meet a team of eight professional play
ers with but one man from the Ogie
thorpes making the ninth. 'This, of
course, embarrassed the Savannah boys
und they played much worse than they
would have done under other circum
stances. The Guards have a very fair
team for amateurs, but, of course, they
cannot be expected to cope with profes
sional players.
ORDAINED A DEACON
Interesting Service *t the Duffy
Street Baptist Church.
An interesting service took place St the
Duffy Street Baptist church last night
Mr L Kennedy was ordained deacon by
! Rev. T. J. Shipman, assisted by Rev. E.
Pendleton Jones, formerly pastor of the
I church and who preached the sermon
After the ordination service the rite of
‘ iiapiism was administered.
Tlie deacons of the Dnff.v Street church
1 are now Messrs. Wells. Thomas. Med lock
! and Kennedy.
The church was crowded last night to
! its ca| a tty. Rev. Mr. Jones was warmly
greeted by the members of tho congrega
tion He will leave in November for his
! tnissionery field in (tuba. It was expected
he would go to Brazil, but the board of
missions decided that the work in Cuba
i required his service. His sermons at
tioth morning and night services yester
day were deeply interesting and in
structive.
The Duffy Street Baptist church has
one of the most active congregations in
! the city. The church was built five
: years ago. It was conducted as a mis
| sion until two years ago, whin itorgan
j ized as an independent congrega-
I tion, with a communicant member
| ship of 58. Its membership is
j now over 300. The church building i3
inadequate for the congregation and is
being enlarged. It is the purpose of the
congregation to increase the lasting
capacity of the auditorium by the addi
tion of galleries at an early day.
REMEMBERING THEIR DEAD.
Odd Fellows to Hold Memorial Serv
ices To-morrow Night.
The Odd Fellows of the city yvill hold a
joint memorial service to-morrow night
commemorative of their dead. The serv
ices will take place at the conclusion of
the routine work of Oglethorpe lodge,
which meets qn that night, under the
head of the good and welfare of the or
der. Speakers are expected to respond
for each of the six lodges of the city and
able representatives of the grand iodge
of the state and of the sovereign grand
lodge will make appropriate addresses.
These services, while of a simple char
acter tli is year, will be no less interesting
and impressive to those who love this
grand old order aud who never neglect an
opportunity to pay glowing tributes to
those departed brothers whose memories
are revered for their kind and charitable
deeds to the sick brother, the widow, and
the orphan, and whose conduct while liv
ing was worthy of the highest emulation.
There will no doubt be a largo attend

asked to respond for the grand lodge of
the state as an officer of that lodge.

Isaac Minis Laid to Rest in Laurel
Grove Cemetery.
All that was mortal of tho late Isaac
Minis was consigned to the grave in
Laurel Grove cemetery yesterday after
noon in the presence of one of the largest
gatherings that has attended a funeral
there in some time. The business com
munity wns well represented and friends
of the deceased from every walk in life
were there to pay their last tribute.
Tho Hussars were out thirty-five strong
under command of Capt. Gordon, and half
a hundred members of the Young Men’s
Hebrew Association formed a cordon
around the lot.
Rabbi I. P. Mendes of Mickva Israel
synagogue performed the impressive cere
monies of the Hebrew faith nt the house
and grave. Floral tributes of the hand
somest designs not only hid the grave
from view, but covered nearly the entire
lot as well. The pall-bearers were Capt.
Thomas Screven, Houstoun Thomas,
Stephen Elliott. J. H. Hunter, J. C. Harris,
G. H. Remshart, M. C. Tobias and P. T.

CROWDS AT TYBEE.
The Seaside Had Its Largest Day This
Season Yesterday.
Every train for Tybee that left the city
yesterday was crowded with seaside
tourists who had but a day to spend away
from the summer heat of the city.
Several thousaud people went down
during the day, and just after dinner the
3:30 o’clock train had to put on half a
dozen extra coaches to carry .the crowd
that swarmed down to tlie depot. Every
one of twelve cars was completely filled.
The Augusta excursion train came in
yesterday morning well loaded, and this
helped largely to swell the crowd at the
popular resort. Quite a number of Au
gusta people aro stopping at the hotel.
The Hotel Tybee is entirely tilled with
guests, and in many cases rooms are en
gaged some weeks in advance. The
new management has made quite a
successful beginning. Almost everybody
who goes to Tybee takes a dip in the surf,
and at one time yesterday there were as
many as 300 or 300 people rolling in the
waves. The old-time popularity of the
island seems not only to hold out, but to
be on the increase, and the prospect is
that this season will be the largest in its
history. At least such is indicated by
tho fact that the Tybee l-oad is doing just
50 per cent, more business, as is shown
by the records, than it was at this time
lust year.

TTTE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY, JUNE 12. 18T3.
STANDS BY DR. BRICGS.
Rev. Charles H. Strong ob Hls Ex
clusion From the Ministry.
The Christian Faith Unshaken by the
Scholar's Researches and Conclu
sions He Does Not Think It Makes a
Material Difference With the Chris
tians' Belief Whether Moses Wrote
the First Five Books of the Bible or
not—The Bible an Inspired Work,
but Written by Men Liable to Human
Failings—The Episcopalian Belief in
the Word—Dr. Dripps on the Briggs
Case.
The action of tho Presbyterian conven
tion in expelling Dr. Briggs from ths-aiic
istry was discussed yesterday by Rev
Charles H. Strong in one of his character
istic forcible and instructive sermons. He
presented such a clear view of the cast
that even those who had given no atten
tion to its progress could not have failed
to understand it.
Mr. Strong's argument strongly sus
tained Dr. Briggs from the Episcopalian
standpoint, showing clearly that tho re
searches and conclusions of modern schol
ars with regard to the Bible, could be in
no way detrimental to the book upon
which all Christians must base their
hopes.
Mr. Strong began by comparing the re
searches and results reached by modern
scientists with those of the modern
scholar. For example, he said, very few
people know how the machinery of the
electric car is made, and by what exact
process tho work is accomplished; still
they can see tho result, of the work and
can enjoy the benefits of that result.
So it was with modem research in
other branches. The scholar who had
access to all the old manuscripts of
the Bible, written in many different
tongues, and who wns conversant with
those languages which were a key to
their contents, so to speak, could reach
true conclusions with regard to portions
of the scriptures, of very little of which
tho layman could have absolute knowl
edge, as he had no means of reasoning out
or investigating these questions for him
self. The layman must therefore accept
the opinion of tho scholars who have
made the investigations, or, clinging to
the common belief in regard to them
based upon no investigation or fact, deny
that they are true.
NOT UNORTHODOX.
With regard to those conclusions tyhich
Dr. Briggs taught Mr. Strong said they
could in no wise destroy the foundation of
the Christian’s belief in the book as the
word of God. For instance, it made no
difference, so far as the principles of true
Christianity were eoneomed, whethor
Moses wrote the whole of the first five
books of the Bible or not. Modern inves
tigation had shown that such could no;
have been the case, as portions of the
Pentateuch contain references to places
and events which are known
not to have been in existence until after
Moses’ death; and again, it would have
been strange, indeed, if Moses had writ
ten the account of his own deatli and
burial. These investigations hud also
shown. Dr. Strong said, that Isaiah did
not write the latter portion of tho book
which bears his name. These facts, he
h"ld, could in nowise shako the Chris
tian belief in the word itself, simply be
cause that word had not all been recorded
by the authors to whom the works are
commonly attributed.
Mr. Strong then took up the subject of
the inspiration of the holy word. The
Bible was written, he said, by different
men, each of whom had his own peculiar
style, which was readily recognizable by
those who made a study of the books.
Into their writings theso men had thrown
their own peculiar style, which was the
result of their own individuality and tho
circumstances which surrounded them.
INSPIRED THROUGHOUT.
These men were human and were liable
to the failing to which the whole human
race is subject. The work was one done by
human hands, still there was the divine
light of inspiration shining thi-ough it all.
It was the work of God. but done by hu
man hands. It combined both tho human
and the divine. If the human had in
slight particulars been in error, it need
not and did affect the faith of the Chris
tian in the divinity contained in the
work. In regard to this point, Mr.
Strong referred to the biblical account of
the creation, which, ho said, now was not
believed literally by those who had mado
a scientific investigation of the subject.
Mr. Strong referred to the Episco
palian belief in regard to the Bible. It
wias contained in the answer to
bo mrde by a clergyman
upon his ordination. He was
required simply to beliove that the Bible
contained all that was necessary to
eternal salvation. So long as the divinity
in the work was not affected by the
human, the faith of the Christian should
not and could not bo shaken.
His sermon took up in general the
points upon which the trial of Dr. Briggs
by tlie Presbyterian assembly had been
based, and- his argument was a strong
vindication of tho advanced ideas and
conclusions of modem scholars, readied
through thorough investigation, such as
were taught by that divine.
Dr. Dripps On the Briggs Ca3e.
Rev. Dr. Dripps ol the Independent Pres
byterian church preached very interesting
and instructive sermons yesterday morn
ing and last night on the recent Presby
terian assembly at Washington.
List night his sermon dealt especially
with the Briggs case and its outcome.
His sermon was largely explanatory of
tho Issues which led up to the trial of'Dr.
Briggs by the assembly and its final
action in regard to the case. Ho ex
plained the case in such a manner as to
give a thorough understanding of it to all
who heard him, and uphold tho proceed
ings of tho assembly throughout the case
and iu its final action with regard to Dr.
Briggs.

MANNING WELL PLEASED.
He Says Breaking Even on the Trip
Exceeded His Anticipations.
The Manager Expects Our Club to
Take Fifteen of the Couning Games at
Home, and Thinks Savannah Will
Be High in the Pennant Race—No
Truth In the Story That the Boys
Were Drinking Geotrge, the New
Outfielder, a Valuable Acquisition.
NJauager Manning of Savannah's ball
team arrived in the city lust night from
Montgomery. Connaughton accompanied
him. Manning is feeling good about his
club and speaks confidently about a top
position at the close of the first season.
“We did better than 1 anticipated,”
said he. “We broke even on the trip,
winning fourteen and losing fourteen
games, whieh, I think, is a pretty good
showing.”
“That drinking story about the club is
false. The boys have been taking ex
cellent care of themselves and playing
good ball, but were in hard luck.
“Our chances are good. We play
twenty games on the home grounds, and
1 think we will win fourteen or fifteen,
possibly more. Tlie signing of George
will strengthen us more, than people
think, as we will not have to break the
outfield when Connaughton goes behind
the bat, and this will insnfcre the boys
with confidence. We went aß.vay from Sa
vannah in fifth place and return in tho
same position,, and with the addition of
George will be right in the race for tlie
pennant.
“Quarles is a good man and J am well sat
isfied with the showing lie nets made. He
has all the qualities essential to the make
up of a good pitcher. Ho has. good speed
and curves and a cool head. I have not
worked him because I tried to make two
men do all the work, which I thought
was best.”
The balance of tho team will arrive to
morrow morning.
Kreig and Wood have been released by
Nashville,

Augusta has signed Pitcher Harper of

Hanley.
Murray-, McCloskey and Kelly are be
ginning to realize that all is not beds of
roses for a base ball manager. The scalps
of each of those mon are being called for
by those that know nothing about base
bull. The best thing they can do will bo
to forget all about it and perhaps they
will feel better.
In the game Thursday between Memphis
and Macon Goodenough, the center fielder
of the Memphis team, spiked Gillen, the
Macon third baseman, in trying to steal
the base. The act seemed so deliberate
that Umpire McDermott fined Good
enough #lO and put him out of the game.
Thursday night, while the players of the
two clubs were discussing the matter,
Lucid, the Louisville pitcher recently
signed by Macon, remarked that Good
enough’s action on the field was a dirty
trick, whereupon Goodenough knocked
him down. A general row was narrowly
averted, even Managers Graves and Shan
non coming to hot words. Later Good
enough was arrested on a warrant sworn
out by Lucid, charging assault and bat
tery. He gave bond aud was released.
The two clubs are very sore over tho
affair.

Eseape of Prisoners.
The report that prisoners have been and are

by the self-liberated captives. Hostettor s
Stomach Bitters are, they say, the means by
which they get rid of their fetters. Few alto
gether avoid the bondage of this ailment, and
few are unacquainted with its signs, viz: pain
through the right side and shoulder blade,
furred tongue, yellowness of the eyeballs and
skin, sour breath, slclt headache, dyspepsia
and constipation. Hostetter s Stomach Bit
ters puts a prompt period to these, brings
them to a full stop ;n short order. Whether
the trouble is chronic or temporary this
medicine Is equally effective, regulating the
liver and bowels thoroughly. It is likewise a
sovereign remedy for rheumatism, kidnev
