Bishop Newman's Patriotic Expressions Win Merited Applause, HE LOVES THE FLAG NEXT TO THE CROSS Eloguent Trihute Its De the Reb Paid to the Bravery % in the Dark Days of ion—Local Notes of Interest, The First Methodist church been hold! their services in Haghes' hall while waiting for the completion of their splendid new church building on Broadway, but the services yesterday were held in the Masonic temple. This hall seats between 1,200 and 1,500 people, and the membors rightly believed that the crowd that wanted to hear Bishop Newman, who kindly agroed 10 take the plice of the pastor during his &b sence, would be sufficient to fill all the seats, since it was generally understood that a spocial invitation had bsen extended to tho Grand Army organizations to be present with their flags and rogalias, und the bishop might bo expocted to say somothing patri otically interesting. Before the hour arrived for the commence- ment of the services tho bail was packed to the doors, all the windows were occupied aud a mass of humanity was stanaing in the aisles and around the walls, Before the hall was entirely filled a full corps of the Grana Army anc Union Veteran league members marched in with their flags un- furled and were couducted to the front of the hall, where chairs had been reserved for them. The flag bearer was invited to place bis banner on the rostrum in the rear of the pulpit and was requested to spread it out on the wall. ‘The invitation was accepted and the banner was quickly unfurled and drawn full length bohind the vulpit. The ex- traordinary spectacle was too much for even the decorum of a staid Methodist congrega- tion and 1t was greoted with hearty and pro- longed cheers, ~ Bishop Nowman was in his happiest mood, ana when the cheering ceased and altor the usual prayer and sing- ing prenched one of his most powerful and eloguent sormons. He found his text in John ii. ‘“The Master 1s come aud calleth for thee” It was an cloguent and practical disquisition upon tho present necessity for active and positive work by members of the Protestaut Christian churches. Toward the end of his scourse, when he hao wrought up the con- egation to a high vitch of intercst, he turned 1o the great flag on the wall and aposirophized it in most eloquent language. “That flag stands next to tho cross to me,” said he. Xt to the cross of Christ it 1s the idealization of tho pure and best, the noblest and highest buman aspiration. I love it, ana where [ go I want it to go, and when I die I want it 1o be wrapped around my coftin and carried with meuto the church anid 1o the grav This wus followed by a burst of applause that shook the building, and before it ceasea he tutned to tho soldiers below him and paid an eloguent tribute te their bravery and sac- people have s brought forth another outburst of ap- ause, and for a fow mowments almost evor: sentence was received with a similar demon- stration, u speaker somewhat checked the enthiusiasm by requesting the cougrega- tion to manifest its approbation by the good old Methodist response of **Amen,” and fo the next ten minutes men shouted “amen' who scarcely knew its meaning. “The lesson of the sermon was keenly apore- ciated and the seed fell upon fertile ground. At the conclusion, the benediction was pro nounced by Kev. Dr. Crofts, the Congnega- tional poet preacher. All the old soldiers then passed forward and heartiiy shook the bishop's hand.

Thore are some fearfully sore spots in the First Baptist church, and as thoy have been exposed to the public, there was naturally much curiosity yesterday to see whether i his Sunday moruing ministration, the pastor, Rev. Mr. Hall, would fotlow his usual heroic treatment, Mr. Hall believes in caustic and always hus asupply on nand. Henee the church yesterday was evidently pervaded by an atmosphere of expectation rather than veneratiol The incidents of last Wednesday evening’s stormy meeting, when the police were ap- pealed to in vain to disperse the gathering of the members, were still fresh in the minas of many, and all evidently listened with eagor- ness for what the outspoken pastor would say about it. He, no less evidentiy, had tbhe same subject uppermost in mind, bat iu_ his sermon there was more force in his allusions than in bis direct utterances, He once directly spoke of last Weadnesday cvening's meeting, calling attention to the fact that it made a great difference whether church members get together to pray or to bray. With the exception of some such touches the sermon would not have been considered as *“‘a striking” one, hud not the listeners been so faxiliar with the detaiis of the church troublas as to easily detect the unspoken thoughts betweeu the uttered words. Rev. Mr. Hull’s discourse was based on the letter to the church in Sardis. He picturea the condition of that church as wealthy, fashionable and popular, but spiritually dead. He especially dwelt upon the pas- suges—*'1 know thy works, that thou hasta name that thou livest, and art aead. Be watehful and strengthen tho things which remain, that are ready to die; for I have not found th) works perfect before God. Thou hast a few names, even in Sardis, which has not detiled their garment.”” In his opinion the Darwinian theory of the gradual and natural development of maon was disproved by the mistorical showing that de- generation was the natural course pursued. It was only by constant effort that progress was made, even in the church. He did not believe in the idea that “oncein grace, al ways 1n grace.”” There were some who de- hted In singing, *'Ob, 1o be noth- ing,” and who found their greatest satisfac- tion in remembering that *‘Jesus paid it all, all the debt 1 owe.” That sort of religion will do very well for a man who was brought up on a dry goods box. Sucl & man would enjoy loafing around the throno whittling “and singing. A heaven where there was anything to do would be a hell for such a man, Men who are satisried with simply having been converted some time in the past rapidly degencrate and soon become dea (I Their names might be on the church rolls’ but not on the book of life. God kept an eraser as well as & pen and he coula scrateh out & name as well as write it Some folks had an idea that all they had to do was to take out a policy, and pay one premium ou it and then stop} God would seejto it that the policy never lapsed. That was a fearful mistake, for God had said distinctly that he would blot out of the book of his rémembrance the numes of those who did not prove faitbful, By neglecting the means of grice, by ¢ interest in the missionary work ana other concerns of the church, those who haa been truly converted would soon become wrapped in selfishaess. Truth would become #0 distasteful to thom that the preacher who uttered it would be hated by them. Thoy wouid gradually seeic tho back pews, and at last the door of the church would close behind them. *I am here as an ambassador of Christ to bring a message of truth to you. [ thank God I did not nake the message. My auty is simply to utter it feariossly.” ‘Then the speaker paid a special tribute to “the faithful few” to be found in every church, The pastor was simply one and of bimself could do nothing, but his power and usefulness could be increased wonderfully by the beip of otherss The most humble mem- ber of the church, one who deemed himselfl a mere cipher, could holp mightily, for if a cipher was on the right side of & single unit it increased it froin one to ten.

Serious Chary Made A zens of Butte, Mont. Herexa, Mont., Feb. 1 Pung Wang Yu, Chinese charge adinterim at Washington, has complained to the secretary of state of the treatment of the Clinecse residonts of Butte, and the matter was referred by Mr. Blaine to Governor Toole. For some time a boycott has been in forde in Butte against Chinese and all who emply themn, and the information upon which the complaint is mada comes from the Chinese consul general at av I'rancisco. It 1s charged that various citizens of Butte “‘have ovstructed in their lawful business and outrageously treated the Chinese sub- jects resident in that place. In_Novemb last various labor unions of Butte City ‘passed a regulation prohibiting the people in the said city frown aealing with Chinese sub- jeots resident there, aud at the same time placed guards at the front of Chiuese storos toarrest and punish any native who should be found to infringe on the regulation. Sub- sequently the labor union forbade the natiye lundlords to hiro any more of tuew houses to the Chinese and ordered them to raise rents of houses already tenanted by thom, They further require the Chinese laundrymen to register their names, and at tempted to extort from them 10 cach for the | same. Upon their refusal to comply witn therr demands the lawless peovle ~ tired at them and assaulted some of them about the head with their mistols, so grievously \rouudiuy them that their lives were imper ilea.” The newspapers of Butte have published isolated cases of outrages upon Chinamen by hoodlums, but it is not creditable that they were instigated by the reputable citizens of the place, A few duys ago a burly rough in Butte as- saulted a celestial on one of the main streets, knockingz him down and cruelly beating im, knocking him through & window, then drag- Ring him out again across the broken glass, Weanesday nigot Ah Sam, a suburban laundryman’ and his crew came to Butte to participate in the New Year's festivities and left their wash house unguarded, ana when they returned the establishment was a total wreck. It had been visitea by 8 band of men and destroyed; the doors and furniture were smashed and the clothes scattered and ruined. During the proceedings & large crowd of lookers on cheered the work of aestruction, and an- nounced that the Chinese must go, peaceably if they would, but go they must. The laboring men of Buite are circulating a memorial to congress, in which they say: “Your petitioners, representing the wage woriers of the state, are ospecially and vitally concerned for the prompt solution of this ~ most important question. The immigrants are forced upon us in great multitudes. The ~ situation is alarming. We ate being deprived of an opportunity to earn our daily bread. The conditions aro too bard to be paticutly with- stood.
