■.,. diem away. Young men generally

mpauions have much to do in keeping

He Illustrated this in > various ways nnd
I.i id felt.that tho young women of Sa
'■annah who entertain young men on Sun
day mght will have much to account
for at the judgment.
The musical part of the service was es
pecially attractive. Miss Summerlin's
solo, ‘Angels Bright and Fair,” by Boet,
was well rendered. The people of the
church are delighted with her singing.
She has been engaged regularly. Sunday
< a rings she does her best work. The au
dkn.e nearly filled the church. The
programmes are greatly appre

C HAPUIS THOMAS AT WESLEY.
His Sermon Listened to by a Large
Congregation.
The pulpit of Wesley Monumental
Church was occupied yesterday morning
by Rev. Frank Thomas, chaplain of the
Third Kentucky Regiment.
Mr. Thqmas and Rev. E(j F. Cook, pas
tor of .Wesley Church, Were students to
gether at Vanderbilt University, and Mr.
Thomas prefaced his sermon with a touch
ing allusion to this earlier friendshiD, at
tributing his conversion in pan to the
sympathy and advice of Mr. Cook, at a
time when he was perplexed and undecid
ed.
Mr. Thomas preached from Paul’s Epis
tle to the Colossians. Chap. I, vs. 26 and
27. Paul’s later waitings, he said, present
a striking contrast to his earlier epistles.
The latter show that he was passing
through a storm and stress period, that
the religious life was to some degree still
an experiment, while the former manifest
a deep conviction, to certain
ty, in the power of this religion to change
a man's character and life for all time
and eternity. For the life of Christ can
be transfused into a man's life, and
change It, as the Savannah river changes
the color of the ocean near its mouth.
The chaplain said there are three marks
of a soul’s being in close touch with
Christ. First is purity. Some men,
when appealed to to change their lives
for the better, say, "I fear I shall become
too good for this world.” The standard
of righteousness is too high, they think.
The standard is already fixed: “Be ye
perfect.” The chaplain said: "Man does
not often attain this standard because of
his natural frailty, hut that is no reason
why he should abandon it. Man does not
always accomplish what he undertakes In
the natural world; the physician is fre
quently baffled; politicians confuse this en
tire country periodically with their dif
ferences of opinion.
Our consciences are feeble, without
Christ's help. Purity cannot be pul on
and off. It is the result of a growth, and
sometimes after a character has been
building for years, one sin may be com
mitted which will destroy the entire fab
ric. Look at De Lesseps, Parnell and
others.
"The second mark of the Christian life.”
said Chaplain Thomas, “is faith in the
unseen; this is the arbiter of our destinies.
The farmer shows faith in the laws of na
ture. and plants his crop. The merchant
shows faith in the usual sequence of
events, and embarks upon a business en
terprise. Every man has faith sufficient
for this life, but in the hour of death he
needs faith in God.
"The third badge of the Christian,” said
the preacher, "is love, which eludes defini
tion. It is the engine of human life, this
iove for God and man. Our worship or
dinarily is sadly lacking in love for God.
AVe manifest reverence and profound re
spect, but not love. We should love man,
not for what >he is, but for what he may
be. Christ is in the Christian the hope
of glory, not a transient earthly glory that
fades with life, hut an eternal glory, for
‘He that doeth the will of God abideth for
ever.’ ’’
WHEATON STREET COMPLETED.
Brick Paving; Finished nnd AVill He
Packed AAitll Sand,
The opening and paving of Wheaton
street to Harmon street has been com
pleted. There has been considerable de
lay in the work owing to the slow arriv
al of material and the putting down of
the house drainage pipes, but the advan
tage taken of opportunities to hurry the
work has enabled Director Gadsden to
complete it within reasonable time.
It Is the intention of the street and lane
committee to have the road treated in
the same, way as the brick paving in
front of the city exchange, by using sand
instead of pitch, to fill the cracks. By
using sand much is saved, and it is
claimed the paving is quite as solid. By
remaining for a week or ten days on a
street over which there is much traffic
the sand is first powdered, then forced into
the cracks, making a solid mass. Since
it has been found satisfactory as used at
the exchange, it is probable this method
of solidifying the brick will be adopted
in all instances.
It was the original Intention of the com
mittee to pave Wheaton street up to the
toll gate, and unless something intervenes
it is believed this will be done. The prop
erty owners in that section are making an
urgent request for it, claiming it will be
of great value to their property.
There is considerable other brick pav
ing to be done around Savannah in the
near future. No doubt seems to exist ln
the minds of the aldermen but the re
quests of property owners on President
street, east of East Broad street, to have
the street paved with brick, will be grant
ed by Uouru’il and an ordinance introduc
ed providing for it. lr it Is decided to
make tills improvement on President
street, property owners in the vicinity of
Kehoe’s foundry* will be particularly
pleassdt as they Confidently expect as
was evidenced by their petition, that fa
vorable action will be taken. They say
they are willing to pay their pro rata
share of the cost.
OLD OFFENDER CAPTURED.
J. Hensley, Colored. Arrested for
Attempt nt IlnrKlary.
Recorder. Hartridge will have an old of
fender before him in the Police Court this
morning In the person of J. Beasley, who
has been up lately to some of his old
tricks. This time he is charged with at
tempting to burglarize the house of a ne
gro woman living in Broughton lane.
The crime was committed Friday night.
The would-be burglar broke the glass of
the window and entered the room in which
the woman was sleeping and she waked
just lit time to recognize Beasley, and by
her cries to frighten him away. He es
caped and Che woman went to the bar
racks and reported the attempted bur
glary to the police, adding that she had
recognized Beasley as the thief.
Detectives Barrett-and Shea found the
burglar on the streets later and arrested
him. He was confronted by the woman,
whom he had attempted to rob, and she
identified him ns the man. The Recorder
will Investigate the case this morning.
AVILL ,NT CONSOLIDATE.
Oglethorpe* nnd Lawton t'ndet* Will

The proposed consolidation of the Law
ton CSUcts and the Oglethorpe Light In

THE HORNING NEWS: MONDAY, MAY 15. is!*).
SERVICES AT ST. MICHAEL’S.
Rev. Dr. T. C. Tapper** Sermon on
the Value of Chtlatlan Giving.
There was evening prayer and a ser
mon by Rev. Dr. T. C. Tupper of At'
lanta at St. Michael's Episcopal Chapel
last night. Dr. Tapper’s text was rroru
Peter 5:10, “But the God of all grace, who
hath called us unto His eternal glory by
Christ Jesus, af.er that ye have suffered
a while, make you perfect, establish,
strengthen, settle ybu."
Deeds, said the speaker, are a man’s
best epitaph, and the only one that is
of value to him on the day of judgment.
It matters little what may be said of a
man by bis friends or the world or how
he may be regarded by those who love
him. It Is the work of real and kindly
gent.eness that he does in this life that will
speak in his favor in the life beyond the
grave. It is his active and unassuming
charity and the good that springs from it
that are marked in the book of life by
the white-robed recording ahgel.
Dr. Tucker called upon his hearers to
purchase the perfect |>eacc that comes
with the acknowledgement of the Sa
vior and the effort to pattern the life here
upon the perfect model provided in the
earthly existence of the Son of God.
Christ, said Ur. Tupper, was tho good
Samaritan on a larger scale and the whole
of suffering humanity was the field in
which he exercised his beneficent charity
arid offered healing and strength and
courage to all who asked them at his
hands. He was of assistance to his peo
ple in this world, and to those who plac
ed their faith in him and his works he
had promised to lend his counteuanee and
support and to make perfect, strengthen
and settle.
Dr. Tucker will preach at St. Michael's
next Sunday .evening and possibly
throughout the month at the evening ser
vice. He announced last night that he will
be here until the tiisi of June and that he
expected to be with the congregation of
St. Michael's certainly for the service on
next Sunday and possibly for the evening
service on the two following Sundays.
Dr. Tupper has made a strong impres
sion in Savannah, where his qualities as
a pulpit orator have appealed to his con
gregations and his earnest eloquence held
their attention from start to finish. He
has, to back the matter of his sermons,
a most pleasing and graceful delivery!
Those who have heard him since ho has
been filling the pulpit at Christ Church,
in the absence of the rector, will regret
his departure.
BIG DAY AT THUNDERBOLT.
Street Railway Claim* to Have Tak
en Out 3,000 People.
The street railway people thought the
travel to Thunderbolt yesterday was the
largest it has been since the circus has
been giving free performances there. Gen
eral Manager Lofton estimated that 3,000
people went out on the cars during the
day. Many of them spent the time at the
music garden, the circus, the side show,
or in wandering through the maze.
An arrangement was made so that the
incoming cars would make the waits at
switches, instead of the heavily loaded
outgoing cars. This was a great conve
nience to the public, and served to keep
many passengers from becoming impa
tient. Mr. Lofton has arranged to keep
the circus,another week, but at the end
of that time it will leave for other Georgia
points. Among the crowds at Thunderbolt
yesterday were to be seen many of Sa
vannah’s best people.

An Effingham Jury Award* Illg Dam
ages Against the Central.
The suit of Homer Edwards against the
Central of Georgia Railway Company in
Effingham Court last week resulted in a
verdict for the plaintiff for $7,500. This Is
rather a large verdict to be obtained at
a country court.
Edwards was employed as a fireman on
the Central and in a case of emergency
was ordered by the engineer to perform
a risky piece of work. In attempting to
do so his foot was caught ln a frog on
the track and he was run over, having
both legs badiy mangled and being maim
ed for life. The amount sued for was
$15,000. Twiggs & Oliver were the attor
neys for the plaintiff while the railway
company was represented by Mr. T. M.
Cunningham, Jr.

Description of Treatment in Wtimh.
IniTton** Lnnt lilncNn.
From the New York Mall and! Express.
During the present year oevursi the hun
dredth anniversary of the deuih of George
Washington. The : dale i* 14. but
all sorts of Washing ion ions will be in or
der during the year. Mr. 1,. W. De Zel
ler, of this city, owns a bound volume of
the “Monthly Magazine and American Re
view” of New* York for the y it* ITW. 141 l
from it is taken tho following interesting
contemporaneous account of th< i medical
treatment administered fo the nx*?t illus
trious of Americans during his lasi ill
ness. it will be seen that the sceneo of
medicine has made enormous stral s In
the direction of greater mildness ‘ lit the
treatment of disease during the last hun
dred years, and the extraordinary- means
taken to tAw Washington's lift ought to
be interestijng reading to others than doc
tors and druggists. The Dev i , or num
ber of the magazine says:
“Some time in the night of Friday, the
13th of December, having U < u exposal to
a rain on the preceding day. Gen. Wash
ington was attacked with an inflamma
tory affection of the upper part o: the
windpipe, called, in technical language,
cynanche trachealis. The dis as. com
menced with a violent ague. .. mpanied
wr.th some pain in t.vo upper and fork part
of the throat, a senae of stricture in ‘ho
same part, a cough, and a ddln u i, rath r
than u painful, dcgiuUnation, which were
soon succeeded b> feVer and a quick and
laborious respiration.
“The Dev ssity of blood-letting sugg> st
ing Used to the general, he procured a
bleeder in the neighborhood, who to:>k
from Ills.arm in the night twelve or four
teen ounces of blood. He could not be
prevailed on by the family t* ; nd for ih*
attending physician, till tht following
morning, who arrived at Mount Vernon
at about 11 o'clock on Saturd iv.
“Discovering the case to be highly alarm
ing, ut:d foreseeing the fatal tendency of
the disease, two consulting physicians
were immediatejy sent ior, who arrived,
one at 3:30, and the other at i o'clock or
tho afternoon. In the meantime were em
ployed two copious bleedings, a blister
\nus applied to the part affected, two m d
eiate doses of calomel Were g von. but ail
without any perceptible advantage, the
respiration becoming still mote dilficult
and painful.
“On the arrival of the first of the con
sulting physicians, it was agreed, as there
were yet no signs of accumulation in the
bronchial vessels of the lungs, to try the
effect of another bleeding, when about
thirty-two ounces of blood were drawn,
the least apparent alleviation of
the disease. Vapors of vinegar and wat. r
were frequently inhaled, ten grains of
calomei were given, succeed**.! by repeated
doses of emetic tartar, amounting in all
to five or six grains.
“Tlie power of life seemed now mani
festly yielding <o the force of the.disor
der; blisters were applied to the extremi
ties, together with a cataplasm of bran
and vinegar to the uhroai. Speaking, tvhic.i
had been painful from the beginning, now
became almost impracticable; respiration
grew more and more contracted and im
perfect till 11:30 on Safijiday night, when,
retaining the full possession of his intel
lects, he expired Without a struggle.
“He was fully impressed at the begin
ning of his disease as well as through
every stage of it that its conc.usion won Id
bo mortal; submitting to the exertions
made for his recovery rather as a du;y
than from any belief or their efficacy. He
considered the operation* of death upon
his system atj coeyfcl ,ytfh )|ie .ijisyti f,
and several hours before his death, after
repeated off oils to be understood, he suc
ceeded in expressing a desire that fie mlg tt
be permitted to die without further inter
ruption.”
IS HE ORTHODOX I
Some of 4he “Errors” Dr. II riffle*
Find* in tlie Hillle.
From the New York Press.
When Dr. Briggs was made a deacon
he vowed that he “unfeigtiedly believed
all the canonical Scriptures of the Old
and New Testaments.” When he is or
dained priest he will vow that
he "will be ready, with all faithful dili
gence, to banish and drive away from
the church all erroneous and strange doc
trines contrary to God's Word.”
In his book, "General Introduction to
the Study of Holy Scripture,” he says
there are "scientific errors in the Bible,
errors of astronomy, of geology, of zoolo
gy, of botany and of anthropology.”
"There are myths in the stories of the
book of Geflesis anil in the poetry of Job,
Isaiah, Ezekiel, Zechariah, and not a
few of the Psalms.”
"The book of Ruth is a charming idyl."
“The two miracles reported in Jonah
are mor# like the wonders of ’The Arab
ian Nights' than the miracles of Moses, of
Elijah, of Elisha or of Jesus and Ills Apos
tles. The repentance of Nineveh' is an
Ideal of the Imagination."
"The hook of Dank! also belongs td the
group of prose literature that may be
called historical fiction.” . ,
"The sole redeeming feature of the hook
(of Esther) 4s its patriotism.”
"The story of the speaking with tongus
(ln many different languages) a I’enta o-t
is psychologically and physically Incred
tlobla.”
"No human Imagination has ever equal
ed the Imagination of the Lord Jesus In
story teßing.”
"Higher criticism pomes Into conflict
with the authority of Scripture when it
finds that its doctrinal statements are not
authoritative ajjd Its revelations are not
credible. If the credibility of a book is im
peached, its divine authority and inspira
tion are also Impeached.”
The School History Controversy.
Richmond, May 12.—Editor Morning
News: In your paper of May 8, over the
signature of P. F. Brown, after the criti
cism of certain histories, he writes of a
history published In this city, and says
“the author of which is a Mrs. Lee, who
luSn no way connected with the family of
R. E. Lee, though the - Impression has
spread abroad that she Is hp; widow.”
Surely Mr. Brown Is aione In this opinion,
for all the South knows that Mary Custls
Lee rests In tho grave of her Illustrious
husband. Mrs. Susan l,ee, who wrote the
excellent history r f< rred to, Is the widow
of Edwin G. Igo of Shepherdstown, a
cousin of Gen. R. E. Lee, Who, ln the
early part of the war, was upon Stone
wall Jackson's staff. Mr*. Susan Lee I*
the daughter of Rev. AVtiliam N. Pendle
ton (and of whom she has written a most
interesting biography), the famous artil
lery officers of Army of Northern Virginia,
who ordering his nu n to fire, added, "and
God have mercy upon thdlr souia.” After
the close of the war he was rector of the
Episcopal Church In Lexington, that Gen.
Lee attended. Mrs. late’s history Is the
one used in the schools in Virginia, and
I trust will be adopted by all Southern
schools. Instead of the objeclionahle
Northern ones now it) use.
