Pnt to the Test.
Rev. I ) . 1) . Do Long , late president of
Lebanon Valley ( Pa. ) college , occupied
the pulpit of the Congregational church
yesterday. As ho was visiting friends in
this city , the golden opportunity of secur
ing for the public a discourse from him
was improved. It was indeed a rhetor'
leal , intellectual and spiritual feast of
good tilings.
The speaker has n pleasing address , a
round toned strong , yet sweet voice. His
sermon was brainy , The topic was the
inllucnco of Christianity upon the intel
lectual as well as the spiritual world.
His text was : "Prove all things ; hold fast
to that which is good. "
He spoke iirst of the nature of Chris
tianity as a system calculated to call forth
the full intellectual powers of man and
exorcise them into further develop
ment. Christianity had directly in
fluenced nightly the history of
the world lor nineteen cnn-
turics. Its principles had intermingled
with the history of experiences of the
human race from its incipicncy. As a
system it claimed to contain principles
to govern human lifo in all conditions ,
and the problems of spiritual life , in time
and in eternity. With such an mlinite
scope revealed religion was a study to
command the attention , excite the exer
cise i and prove an inspiration to the
greatest intellects.
Honest doubt was not a sin. It was
dangerous to doubt , but to the honest
seeker after truth , a doubt was often the
portal through which one entered into
the clear sunlight. Christ had among his
disciples one honest doubter , so consti
tuted that he could not help but dnubt.
Christ's treatment of Thomas should
serve as an example to the church. It
should not turn away from doubters , or
rebuke them , but urge them to seek hon
estly for the truth , and tb acknowledge
it when found.
There shall be no indifference on the
one hand and no tenacious clinging to
error on the other hand. Doubts shall
naturally arise , and should bo put aside
so soon as ono could discover the real
truth.
Christianity was not without Ha proofs.
It had evidences which would stand ex
amination. It should be tested by every
one , for BO surely as this was done would
the honest seeker after truth iind it.
Many of these tests were familiar. The
variety of matter contained in the re
vealed word tlio history , the philosophy ,
human experiences , teachings by par
ables , miracles , the sacred poetry a
wonderful variety , written by different
men in dillbrent ages , yet all agreeing
in spirit. There was infinite variety and
yet a grand unity. It was to bo expected
that with tiiis wonderful variety , some
of those who searched lor the truth ad
mired ono gem of doctrine more than
another , got clearer glimpses of some
truths than others. Human conceptions
varied greatly , and errors crept into
human internrctations and explanations
of what the inspired teachings were.
Hence there arose various sects , and < lit-
fcrcnt views at different ages and
in different climes. Some had criticised
Christianity because of this. There have
been outrages committed in the name of
Christianity , but they are the result of
weak human conceptions , and the sys
tem itself was not responsible , as it
taught no such acts.
One of the chief tests of Christianity
was its tendency. A system claiming to
so groatljinlluence human life should
submit to such a test. It coulu stand the
test. Its tendency was apparent. Chris
tianity and the highest civilization went
hand and hand. History showed that
thu time , growth and prosperity of a
nation ran parallel with the growth and
prosperity of Christian institutions.
The adaptability of the system was
another test. In this too , Christianity
proved itself to be divine.
' The speaker urged also the necessity
of retention. In the social life , wealth
was often acquired by ono generation ,
only to be squandered by another.
Nations were founded on truth , justice
and virtue , only to fall in years alter by
an undermining ot voluptuousness and
pleasure. In tlio spiritual life there were
also waxings and waning * . It wad the
duty of every one to exert himself dili
gently in discovering truth , and having
discovered it to hold fast to the treasure.
Retention was as necessary as acquisi
tion. The honest doubter should bcarch
for the truth , aud , finding it , should cling
to it as more precious than gold or silver ,
Tlio Purpose of tlio Hospital.
St. Bernard's hospital , situated at the
corner of Ninth avenue and Fourth
street , is now open. It combined a hos
pital aud sanlturiuni , and is complete in
ail its departments. While under the
supervision of the sisters of charity , it i ;
in no sense , a charity institution. In its
nature it is the same as is seen in largei
cities , and is intended as an auxiliary tc
the benilicent work of that order of noble
women whose labors in alleviating dis
tress and caring for the sick have mack
their names a house-word everywhere.
Their work is humanitarian , it is true ,
for where thu sick are unabiu to dufraj
personal expense it is no bar to then
proper care , but those who can pay , arc
charged a moderate rate for the attend-
they receive.
The advantages such an mstitutioi
present are numberless. A few , how
evur , may bu mentioned : It frequently
happens that a person needs thu dailj
attendance of a physician but from hit
living far away from tlio city ho is uuabli
to secure it. Thu hospital is for him
Should one bu suffering from n chronic
disease and wish to avail himself of tin
is best medical treatment , which cannot b <
had here , thu hospital is for him. It i ;
for tlio invalid whosu physical conditioi
demands quiet and rest ; for the mentall ;
worn who need diversion and treatment
in short , for thu sick and suffering of al
conditions.
Thu institution already has quite ;
number of patients , and possesses capac
ity for tlio accommodation of many more
It is ono of thu few things which does it
work so quietly that thu world hanll.
knows of its existence. Council li lulls i
fortunate in this possession and our pco
pie' should sco that all needed encourage
input Is given to these who have thi
work actively in hand.

Mt. Pleasant , and is welcomed as a valu-

Clinutniuitia ICnthnalam.
The opera house was well filled last
evening , about a thousand peonlo being
gathered in a united movement in the in
terest of the Chautauqua assembly.
Shortly before 8 o'clock Chairman L. W.
Tulloys opened the meeting by an-
nounccing a song from gospel hymns.
Dr. Coolcy followed with prayur , after
which the chairman stated the object of
the meeting. Closing , ho said : "As it
had been reported that certain parties
were endeavoring to unload undesirable
property upon the Chautauqua commit
tee , I will call upon Mr. A. S. Hazel-
ton lo state the facts in the case. "
Mr. Hazulton gave a history of tlio
movements of thu committee in relation
to tlio prospective purchase ot the Gar
ner property. He acted as trustee of the
syndicate who own that property , They
paid for it $100 per acre. They asked of
the committee $200 pur aero for 100
acrcr. They themselves had subscribed
for $7,000 of the stock. An incidental
boom always follows the establish
ment of a Chautaiiqua assembly. Upon
the balance of the tract they own thev
propose to reap a financial bonelit not
from this onu hundred acres. They weru
already offered .foOO an aero for a certain
tract and $300 an aero for another. This
does not look liku an unload of undesira
ble property. The tract they now hold
in reserve comprises thirty-four acres.
Colonel Tulleys stated that over $15,000
of stock was taken , but was not binding
until $30,000 was subscribed.
Thu Rov. D. D. Do Long of Harrisburg ,
Pa. , was introduced. Ho gavu his views ,
us an eastern man , of the establishment
of an assembly here. Wo have a natural
location the gate of the west and wo
ought to have it as a safeguard , for no
people are safe who allow their material
interests to crowd out their spiritual in
terests.
Dr. T. J. Mackay followed with a
telling speech. The business activities
are crushing the lifo out of our
people. We ought to turn our
united attention to this work. Everywhere
we have empty pews in the churches ,
empty homes while the head of thu house
is scheming for the dollars , early graves
are on every hand. Chautauqua work
brings about a more fraternal feeling
among religious people. Theology is
narrow. Chautaiiqua broadens it and
makes it take its place amonir the other
sciences as the handmaid of God in sav
ing men. Wo want a broadening out of
the religious culture of the day.
Mr. Joplin , of Omaha , was introduced.
They wished an assembly nearer than
Crete. Neb. , and Omaha would undoubt
edly do a liberal share in locating one
Here.
Dr. Phulps mailo a ringing speech ,
showing the advantages to accrue from
such : tn enterprise. No other assembly
anywhere had started with -assured
success as this. All others weru success
ful. Ours starts with $ ! ! 0,000 stock and
success is assured from the start. "Tho
safety of the people rests upon -their in
telligence. " Chautauqua educates aud
uluvates all.
Rov. Rues , Methodist , made the clos
ing address , and it was brim full of good
things an argument in favor of the
movement not to bo disputed.
This mooting gave the work a wonder
ful impetus , and it is safe to say that
within a few days the entire stock will bo
taken.
A song and benediction by Dr. Mackay
closed the exercises.
Thu song service was ably conducted
Mr. I. M. Treynor.
Dr. J. T. Van Nnss , physician and sur
geon , olllce room 8 , Opera House block ,

THE SHETLAND PONY.
Kindly Traits niul Great
of the Sirtnll ICquinoH.
St. Paul Pioneer Press : The little Shetland
land ponies , or "Sholtios"as they an
called in their bleak , native isles , an
making a good dual of headway in tin
northwest. A few years ago there wen
none of them hero. Now there are prob
ably about fifty owned in thu cities of St
Paul aud Minneapolis , with others scat
tured hero and thure throughout tin
statu. The little fellows are becoming
nioro and more popular on acquaintance
and hardly a weuk passes but a ncv
arrival appears in the street , rattlinj
along with a load of jolly children in In
little cart , and both children and pony it
the height of cenuino enjoyment. Tin
latest acquisition in this line is a plum ]
looking pair which are driven by Ur
Lamprey's children. The diminutiv
team is always thu subject of a good dea
of attention whonnvor it appears on th
street , people pausing in their walk t
look after it until it disappears froi :
view around the corner.
Shetland pontas are ot course to b
classed with the luxuries of lifo , Thu
are not good for any work service , or i
thuy are , they are not put to much of i
in this country. Tnoy are the pets c
children , their diminutivu sue niaklu

the young folks. A very > onng chil
cab bandle ouo with'vase , lliuy tire si
olahlo and dofcllo , and remarkably Intel-
igent in the bargain. Their character- *
sties in those directions make thorn seem
iko large house dogs. In fact , some of
no smaller ones become as thoroughly
domesticated aa n dog. and go into the
louse and follow the children about like
ono of the dog-kinll. E. B. Northrup , of
Ucrrlnm park , has a little pony standing
forty inches high that is about the house
a good deal of the 'time. Ho thinks noth-
ng of walKing Up stairs , and will go
around Into all Forts of nooks and cor
ners. Ono-evenlnn when the young folks
were having a party the pony came m
and Joined the 'company , dancing over
the toilets of thu children with a critical
eye , and eating candy with them in a
perfectly sociable and becoming way.
The Shctlands do not require to be shod ,
ind this is ono reason that they can bo
! > ormitted to como into the house. They
mvo very sharp , hard hoofs , and all that
s necessary to keen the hoofs in good
condition is to trim thorn up occasionnlly.
The principal color of Shctlands is a
deep brown , approaching blank , but oc
casionally there is to bo seen a chestnut ,
and there are many of the dark onus
spotted with whlto. The ponies run in
a wild state over the heaths and bogs of
the Shetland islands. When llrst im
ported they have a rough , shaggy coat ,
jut by constant grooming this becomes
smooth , and they look very slcok and
pretty. They have to be taken good care
of though , for unless they arc kept
clipped and clean they will become

liavo in common with the dog. They do
[ lot cat much , so that it costs very littln to
keep them and this is ono of the strong
points in their favor. Dut it is their in
telligence that beats everything. A well
known horseman says they show more
intelligence oven than a trotting horse ,
and tiiat there is no animal to compare
them with in that respect unless it is the
Newfoundland dog.
The experiment of breeding Shetland
ponies has never been tried in this sec
tion on an extensive scale. A few days
ago an importation of forty head of them
was received by a horse breeder having
stables in Reserve town , and ho is appar
ently going into the business of raising
Shcltics.
Women on Tholr Alutolc.
Pall Mall Ga/.ctte : An incident dis
playing the value of calisthenics to the
fair sex was witnessed at Highbury sta
tion about 11 p. in. ono night last week.
A young lady , the wife of a well-known
athlete , was making her way up stairs to
the train , when she was rudely accosted
by a half-drunken man , who made sev
eral impertinent remarks , and linally at
tempted to kiss her. This was too much
for the youthful British matron , whoso
training had been of a kind to prompt
reliance upon the muscles of the arm
rather than those of the throat. Sweep
ing off her glove , she turn round , and
dealt the offender a blow between
the eyes which fairly knocked him
off his foot , and reeling backward
he rolled from the top to the bottom of
the stair3 in a series of somersaults pain
ful enough to convince him that caution
in his amatory advances might bo worth
observation in the future. A curious
feature in connection with this incident
is that the lady in question is tlio third
sister who has performed thu feat of
knocking down an insultor. Ono of ho
family , a mure girl , was pursued on
Blnckheath by an unfortunate tramp till
she could run no further , when she
promptly lloorcd her pursuer ; and the
other similarly dealt with a scoundrel who
laid hands on her in Richmond. Wo un
derstand that all these young ladies were
practiced cymnasts ; and thu value to
women of such training could not bu bet
ter exemplified than by the foregoing
facts.
