Matters Discussed Last Evening by the Christian Conference. DR. MOOSH, MR. LOW, AND OTHERS ON THE Laon QUESTIONS—THE CHRISTIAN RESOURCES OF THE COUNTRY—MRS. CLEVELAND IN ATTENDANCE AT ‘THE CONFERENCE. ‘Mra, Cleveland attended the afternoon and eve- ning sessions of the Christian Conference at the Congregational church yesterday. She was sc- companied by Rev. Dr. Woods, of the First Presby- terlan church of Germantown, Pa, She was given @ seat well in fromt and sat an atventive listener in the afternoon to President McCosh and in the evening to President Gillman. Dr. McCosh, as stated in THE Star, read a paper yesterday after- noon on “The Relation of the Church to Capital ‘nd Labor.” The church, he sad, had a solemn duty to per- form toward those who had capital and those who had none, It should not attack either. Any man should be allowed to gain wealth, provided he gained tt lawrully. ‘without jorning fa the battle ehureh wouid have the pri Wilege of comforting the bankrupt and caring for the poor, the sick the afflicted. The rich needed comfort as well a3 the poor. Disease of the soul was the worst of all troubies, and in all ages the churen had been the best friend of the poorer classes. Between the rich and helpless classes tnere ts a middle class, which in America ts more numerous than either of the Others. They consututed the bone and sinew of this and every country. We must beware, how- ever, of our churches into mere middle. class institutions, the toll of their hands the laboring classes produced nearly all existing wealth and he re} w near of increased pros Perity among them.

EX-MAYOR Low's VIEWS. The discussion of the labor question was contin ued by Hon. Seth Low, ex-mayor of Brooklyn. ‘There never was a time, he said, when the indi. vidual counted for so much, yet, at the same time, for so ttle. ‘Trades unions and corporations had swallowed up individuality. Where man was freest publicly, there the organization of capital and labor was’ most complete. Combinations of capital and combinations of labor were not antag. onistic toeach other. They were similar forces working in different spheres. Corporations had ridden rough shod over the riguts of the people, and the same Was true of the organizations of la Dor. Labor, by its organization of strikes, has made the thnocent suifer far and wide, and the great trouble with corporations was that they Wanted individual sympathy, being rather ma- chines than combinations of human beings. It’s the duty of the Cureh, he sald, to preach the old story of unselfishness. " Her mouth should not be Mopped by gags of gold. Her open sympathy Should be given to flesh and biood, instead of to dollars and cents. Yet at the same time ministers Of the Gospel should not hesitate to denounce law- Jessness on the part of the laboring classes, Exact ‘and equal justice shouid be given to all. E. H. Rogers, of Chelsea, Mass; Dr. Shute, of Cleveland, Ohio; Geo. M. Powell, Chairman of the American Arbitration Council; Dr. G. K. Morrison, of Philadelphia; Joun B, Cutler and Kev, Alexan- det Proudht, of Baltimore, also spoke ou the same subject, “but where are ‘THE EVENING SESSION ‘was given up to the discussion of “The Christian Resources of Our Country.” Senator Hawley pre- sided. Dr. Jas. M. King, of New York, opened with a paper on the subject of the evening. We have, he said, the cumulative resources of Christian Veaciing of the near as well as the remote past. Almost everything worth ing in_ our insti- tutions Was secured for us by our Christian fore- fathers. Church and State co-exist in this land, Dut they are not wedted. Yet so closely are they connected that the State owes its perpetuity to the character given to citizenship by the church, ‘This Was @ Christian pation. The Divine authority of the Bible was recognized in our instivutions, He referred to the fact that the higher educa- Uonal institutions of the couniry are largely under the control of Christian churches, as one of the Tesources of the country. As to the common Schools, he said the prevent and former genera- tions have been educated in schools that were not merely secular. It was to be hoped that no purely Secular schools would be estabitshed, ‘The public School system pressed into secular uniformity would not meet the needs of the masses. ‘The time Was coming that the state must recognize Chris- tanity as the religion of the people, and provide for teaching Christian morality in” the schools, ‘Was it not Lime to return to the foundations upon which our liberties rest? He spoke of the weaith of the country, and said that at least $10,000,000,- 000 of this Wealth was in the hands of members ot evangelical churches. Inestimating the Christian Tesources of the country they could not, he said, ignore the Roman Catholle Church. ‘The’ utilized euergies of womanhood also he included amor the modern resources of Christianity. ‘The latent powers of the Christian church were great, Let the nominally Chrstian people of the country go to praying, and then to l'Ving up to thelr prayers, and instead of being assembled to determine how to beat the devil they would be assembled soon to welvome back the descending Lord. ‘THE UNIVERSITIES. President D. C. Gilman, of Johns Hopkins Unt- versity, followed Dr. King in a scholarly address in which he essayed to show the influence of the universities on the religious character of the na- tion, Universities, te said, are not only to provide professional training, but’ also to encourage the Spirit of inquiry, of investigation and research. Such an instivuilon 1s well wo:thy to be considered as among the Christian resources of our country. He believed Uney were to be the firm alliesof spirit- uality, of idealily, of religious faith, RESOURCES OF THE SOUTH. Rev. Dr. N. E. Hatcher, of Richmond, Va, fol- lowed, speaking mainly of the Christion resources of the South. He expressed gratitude that they had so much of the religious spirit in the South. They had there a strong Christian sentiment, ‘Their people believed in the Bible. ‘The Sabbath Was observed. ‘The marriage relations was not iaueh disturbed; nearly all of the divorces they had in Virginia grew out of the unhappy relations of tainors who ran over to Washington to be mar- Tied. “I understand,” the speaker sala, “that we are golng to-morrow’to see the President. T would much rather go to Congress and talk to’ them on this subj-ct.” Slavery, he sald, had had its evils None can more heartily rejoice than the Southern ople do that slavery 1s at an end forever; but it is a fact that should never be forgotten, that the negroes were a Christianized race before the shackles were struck from their hands. There had beea, and there are still, antagonisms between the ‘two races. He was not prepared to hat they would cease after ‘that night. I hardiy think,” said the speaker, “they wili ever fully cease tuntil the saloon-keeper and the demayogue become the tood for worms.” ‘Despite these hostilities there was a bond of Christian sen- Uiment between the two races. ‘They were not bothered much down his way by infidels, He be- lieved a blatant infidel coming down there upon a Platform would frighten the people Just as much a3 @ genuine anarchist with a bomb. ‘The South Was solid in tts belief im God.

Ward Alien, the duck’ hunter, was in town yes- terday after along hunt. He reports the largest flight of ducks that he has ever Known. They are flying by thousands in small flocks and large flocks, and the hunter is in his glory. During the past eight days he has Killed seven hundred ducks. On Saturday afternoon he brought up one hundred ‘sand ALY, the result of his day's work, and he went out Saturday night and shot forty by moonlight. Ducks have been so plentiful that the market bas been overstocked, and Allen is now taking a rest untll some of thein have been eaten up. ‘The ducks that are now flying are broad bills (raft ducks), Which are exceedinsly plentiful, teal and mallard ducks. Allen has kitied five or ‘six pairs of canvas backs and about au equal number of red heada, but these two varieties have not made their appearance Yet, ‘The next good noruheaster Will probably Drng down large numbers of hard heads, and the cane vas backs will come with them. ‘Then the hunter will have to work. Canvas-Dack ducks bring the best p a ce ‘things, they are hard to ket. When the hard heads come down they almost cover the river, and the ama- teur hunters go out for sport. ‘They make the hard heads wild, and that takes many a dollar out Of the professional's pocket, for they fly with the canvas-back, and no matter how good a blind a boat may have they are easily scared and fly, and they take the canvas-back with them, Alien Says that he frequently loses $10 worth of canvas- backs just because there is a hard head in the flock, but when he does he follows the flock unul he kilis the hard head, and then he stamps on him. Another trouble with which a hunter has to contend 1s experienced ducks. In a large flock there are more than apt to be three or four old ducks that have been shot at before, and they are Wary and always on the lookout for danger. Unless tne hunter's blind ts perfect, and he approaches the flock with the greatest skill these old ones, who have “smelt gunpowder beore,” will discover his Fuse and lead the Mock away. "In sinall flocks the chances are 80 great, and, as a rule, amall flocks pay better than big ohes wrote bcos A Wife's Earnings net Her Own, From the Philadelphia North American, December 6.
