THE DEATH OF BEECHER. The Action of the Congregational Preachers Criticised — To-Day's School Election—A Smoul- dering Fire, Beecher's Death. In view of the actiontaken a short time ago by some of the Congregational ministers of Chicago, declining to give formal expression of condolence to Mrs. I er, considerable interest has been awankened as to the sentiments of other minist specially of that denomina- tion. At the Congregational church here yesterday morning the pastor, Rev. G.W. Crofts, in his opening praycr, remem- bered the sorrowing family very ten- deriy, and offered a sympathizing peti- tion for the church deprived of so great and beloved a pastor. His sermon was on ““The Spirit of Christ.” He showed christianity not to consist in mere rules of living. mere ceremonies, set forms of action, or technical ement of behef, but to consist rather in_causing men to be inspired by the spirit of Christ, The inner man must be actuated by the mo. tives that governed Christ's life, Men could not do what Christ did, but (Iu-{ could do as he did. He then outlined some of the leading characteris tics of Christ’s spirit, one of which was humility, another complete subjection to God's will, and another charity, or love. In speaking of the need of great charity, and the duty of not only loving God but man, the preacher spoke very plainly of the action of the Congregational minie ters in Chicago. He said he had no stones to throw, but that he felt that they made a great mistake. Some of them feared that if they adopted resolutions of sym- pathy with Mrs. Beecher they might pc €ibly be considered as endorsing to some extent some of the views and t mgs of the great preache which were not considered entirely orthodox. He deemed such a fear foolish and groandless, but had it been well founded even more, had it been that by expres ing such s hy they would have been put outside” the church, or even perse- cuted, they ought the more readily to have done so. If menin the pulpits could not_express sympathy for suffering or sorrow, the sconer such men got out of the pulpit, or such pulpits were got out of church, the better for the world, Christ’s spirit was one of sympathy, and this should permeate the church hfe, and it was always not only proy duty, to show it forth at all time Anybody wishing to buy a cozy home in the vicinity of Sixteenth avenue and Eighth street, cheav and on easy terms will do well tocall on Garman, White & Co., No. 540 Bro See th Brothers'. new The little Jersey Corset found at Hark- ness Brother: ———— A Smouldering Fire. A nttle after 5 o’clock yesterday morn- m of fire was sounded. 1t ap- cars that ever since the fire which de- stroyed eleven of Messrs. Stewart & Sons’ thoroughbred horses at the driving park two weeks ago last night there has been fire smouldering about the ruins, and yesterday morning it blazed up and word was telephoned from the North- western depot, which is the best station for reporting fires that is in this city The department responded, s the reportthey reccived was that in the distance it looked like a small building, but on their arrival found it to bethe remains of what once contained the finest stable of horses that were ever in the west. Sat- urday eveuing Chief Templeton de- spatched two men to look after the ruins, which had been considered to be free from fire, and after scattering it some they returned. As there is no chance of getting water connections for a long dis- tance no hos been Jaid since the tire but as manure had been piled up around the outside of the stable and sod put on top, the fire kept smothered uatil yester- morning, when it showed itself. Even should it have had a good headway no damage would have been done, the other buildings at the driving park being located at a considerable distance.
