Mr. rnttcrnon la At Tli oloR- Ically Ho Ilc-Uavc * In Um Contention of Pullh Orthodox Discourse ol tlio rnullno Complexion. The Klrst Presbyterian church has a now pastor. Yesterday morning Uov. J. > L I'at- torson entered on the duties of the euro left Vacant by Mr. Harsha a year ago. The cliurch was Illled by the congregation to greet , nnd othcw curious to BOO and hear , the now minister. Mr. Patterson has a style calculated to prepossess the onlooker nnd auditor. Ho in In the prime of llfo , healthy looking , black hair cut short , close trimmed black moustache , and In the pulpit , which Is n platform , ho wears the conventional cler ical garb. Uoth yesterday's sermon , matter nnd man , gave the impression of an embodi ment of good'wholesome , muscular Chris tianity. At the very outset of his sermon Mr. Pat terson told his hearers exactly "whcro ho Is nt" theologically. Ho Is Evangelical and Presbyterian : ho didn't mention Calvin's name , but ho confessed a consuming rever ence for the "Confession of Faith. " Ho is nn ngnostlo In regard to the Higher Grit- clsm ; that is , ho said ho didn't know what it meant. Like St. Paul , after his failure to Impress the Athenians .with the gospel sugnrcoatcd with the philosophies , Mr. Pat terson will preach Jesus Christ nnd Him cruclllod. Ills serlnturo roaulng yesterday morning was from St. Paul's letter to the Colosslans , In which the apostle makes known his famous decision to that effect. His text was the closing phrase of the second end verso of the third chapter of that let ter , "But Christ is ail and In all. " Mr. Patterson , as a reader , Is common place , to say the le.ist ; In prayer ho Is col loquial , but as n preacher ho is direct , simple , earnest , forceful , heart-seeking and soul- Inspiring. Ho is no oiator , ho does not "clocute , " but his thoughts nro fresh , oven profound nt times , nnd they are expressed very effectively. Air. I'attrr/ioirn Crrrd. "While it has been a Joy to mo and to mine to i-omo unto you , tnnt Joy hns not been unmixed with sadness at parting from others. Wo are hero because wo believe that God through you hns called us to do His work among you , and It Is my hope that the sumo happy relations may exist hero as sweetened our labors In the Held wo have loft. The text will bo the keynote of my ministry. All Christian doctrine recognizes that Christ is all and in all. I believe in God the Father , God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. I also bo- llovo that the Confession of Faith contains God's message to mnn. I believe that doctrine is very essential to the Christ ian llfo as essential as the outline to the painting , tlio scaffolding to the building , the false work to the bridge. And I bollovo that in time , like these essential temporary helps , doctrine will bo unnecessary. 1 have no sympathy with those who deny tlio need of doctrine , and who would seek our regard merely because of their sincerity ; a man may bo sincere in belief , that u special doctor's prescription may save him , but the dose ho takes may poison him. I do not be lieve , however , in condemning those who dllTcr from us on points of doctrine. Truth Is many Bided and not many of us nro largo enough to get around it "wH , Different churches emphasize particular phases of the sarao truth" A'llcro Is 1'lcnty of room for Christian charity largo latitude should bo given all. But when wo Tediicc all doctrines to their common clement , ifall comes to this : What think ye of Christt and if. you tellmo your doctrine of the Christ. I.ljnowut omo : what you believe of God , of man , of ain , of the conditions of salvation , and what you boliovo.us to the future. All doctrine , as nil the bible , is ChrUtoccntrlo. " So Mr. Patterson began his sermon. What followed wus nn amplification of this and an exposition of the Christ character. Christ , the Mo nil I.iiw Kinbodlod. Christ is all in all tof Christian conduct. Ho shows not a thought , but a fact. His llfo show show the moral law looks clothed in flesh and blood. Ho gave to the world a faultless example. His moral grandeur wns acknowledged by all who came within its influence. Pilate's wife and Pilate himself foil it. Judas felt It. The exponents of the "higher criticism" what is the higher crit icism ? I don't know are at one with Pilate nnd Judas In acknowledgement of the moral eminence of Chnst.miglitc.st among the lowly , lowliest among the mighty. Moses was meek , but wo know ho was not always weak ; Job was not always-patient ; Solomon was not always wise , but Christ is the same yester day , to-day and forever. ChrUt Is all and In allot Christian service. Christianity in trod need into the world a leaven of self sacrifice. Previous to Christ's coming man had been solf-ccntcrcd. Indeed , sol fish ness is the very essence of sin. But the world has been given some- wonderful illustrations of self-denial. Dr. Judson , the great Baptist nilsslonory , laboring In Bur- nmh live years without a single convert ; Dr. Johnson In China , preaching seven yours without a convert ; Ironums , placed between on idol and n cross nnd commanded to choose botwcen thorn , and like his divine Master drinking the cup of martyrdom , Hecrut ( if l'crnoiml'BuH-Sucrillu < ! , What is the secret of nil this service ? Nothing , If It is not found in the statement of the npuatlo : "Tho love of Christ con- strulueth me. " Not lhat Christians are insensible - sensible to other motives , but the secret In spiration of tlio Christian llfo of service Is in personal nttuchmont to the personal Christ. Ho constrains us to service ns u loving father constrains a dutiful son as a bravo captain constrains a loyal army. There Is no other motlvo that Is so ixnvcrful ns the love of Christ. When dona in Christ'a name and for Christ's sake , duty becomes delight nnd weights are transformed Into wings. Men endure and nerve as seeing him who is invisible. And thus men become willing to count all things but lost that they might win Chrlnt and bo found in Him , and Christ becomes the nil In nil of Christian service. And so Christ is nil and in all of the plan of human redemption , There has always boon a power In men thnt made for rlghtcousncbs , But until Christ came the world hail received no satis factory reply to tlio question , how can a man bo Just with GotH There nro agents of sal vation-ministers , apostles , prophets and evangelists but there is ono Savior. There are means of ( 'rare churches , sacr ; ments , scriptures , hymns and psalms nnd spiritual songs , prayers , fastings and survii'o , but there is ono "God of nil graco. " H lvJtlou in Clirut Alono. - Rnlvatton is not to bo found In any of the.io ngunclcs or Instruments , but In Christ. Ho "died for us. " Men may talk as they plouso about creed nnd conduct , nlraut baptismal regeneration and redemption by peed works , yet the fact remains that thcro is salvation in none other than Christ. Ho Is the all and in all of salvation. A man may bo without the bible , without the sac raments , without the services of u minister , without nuy of the instruments of religion or the mminu of grace , yet if ho hns Christ by faith and love ho is navcd. In short , what- ovorChrIutliiiilty la Clu-Ut is. If Christianity is a creed , Christ is the cs- soutml douti'inu ; If Christianity la an ex ample , Christ Is that perfect man ; if Chris- tliutlty Is txmifort , Christ Is the comforter ; 1 ( Christianity is u service. Christ is the ono whom wu servo : if Christianity is a salva- xttoi..Christ is the savior ; if it la a way , Christ is the way ; If it reveals n truth , Christ is inn truth ; -if it offers life , Christ Is thnt lifo. Taka Christ out of Christianity aud you tukn its heart out. Ho 1s its all nnd In all. If nil tula bo true , then what should wo do with Christ t Give him In all things pre eminence.

In these days , when men have itching cars and when the world Is crazy after something now , lot us bo on our guard lest wo substitute gomo other gospel for thnt of the personal Christ.

IN r.vvoii OF THIS CIIINISH. New York nirlnot Declnrn KicluMon to Ho Unlnst nml Oruol. Nnw YonK , May 21 , The Chinese question was discussed by Uov. Madison C. Peters this morning nt the Bloomlngdalo Reformed church. Dr. Peters said : "In the name of God , who of ono blood made all na tions of men to dwell on the face of the earth , I protest against our unmanly , unamerican and unchristian treatment of the Chinese. They are human beings , having the same parts , affections , passions nnd the same material rights as other men. When wo needed cheap labor to develop our country , wo begged the Chinese tocomo. In 13 ! I our government began to coax them to come. The Chinese came ngnlnst all their prejudices and our treat ment of thorn has been ono long scene of prejudice , brlckbaU , taxation nnd robbery. "Tho Chinese are no worse than the same number of the same class of any other nationality In our midst. I bespeak for the Chinese-American fair play. Having simply failed to register , bocnuso they were mis represented by counsel ns to the constitu tionality of the law , there Is no reason why the discretionary power of the authorities should not bo used to extend temporarily the period of registration. If wo have a Christian civilization lot us present it to the Chinese In n Christian way. "Wo send missionaries and money to China and profess n deep Interest in them thou sands of miles nway and thcro they are au Interesting object to us ; but at our doors wo avoid them , nnd the very ministers who make the most eloquent pleas in China will , without protest , allow Chinese in America to become the victims of political cruelty. If the Chinaman had a vote our demagogues In congress would profess great love for the Chinamen and they would go around on election day with an opium pipe sticking from their pockets. " Rov. Edward P. Payson , ono of the moat eloquent of the Presbyterian clergymen of Now York , preached at the Old Canal street Presbyterian church this morning on the Chinese exclusion law , to a largo congrega tion. Ho brandoi tlio law recently adjudged us constitutional by the United Slates su preme court ns unjust nnd unchristian. lie began his sermon by reviewing briefly the history of the Chinese empire and its contri butions to the world. Dr. Payson then exhaustively discussed what ho claimed to bo the injustice of tlio act , which discriminated against the Chi nese , and yet admitted the Immigrants from Europe. "Wo combined with the European nations to break down the Chinese wall barring Christianity , and now , with charming con sistency , wo build a w.ili against the Chinose. Wo , children of immigrants wo immigrants of 1G20 say to the immigrants of IS'JJ : 'You shall not come hero. ' When did wo acquire this rightf The Inherent and inalienable right of men to change their homes nnd allegiance was rccogni/.cd in our famous Burlingamo treaty with China in 18113. "By the terms of this treaty the United States induced the Chinese to come to our shores , and In later years , when the hood lums of San Francisco protested against Chinese immigration being open in a second treaty , oald that while it could and would regulate Chinese Immigration , It would never prohibit it. Thus have we , a Christian nation , broken faith \vith China , whom in our righteousness wo have designated as a nation of pagans , but oven if wo had tlio right to exclude and deport - port the Chinese , wo haven't the power. "No net of congress can keep them out. Wo tried to convert the Chinamen ; many have been converted , yet I say .you cannot convert him and then pitch him into the Pacific. " CAUS12 -UISSUXSIOTT. . Dramatic Incident In the Service of a Washington Church Yostcrdny. WASHINGTON D. C. , May 31. The absorb ing topic in church circles tonight is a sen sational incident which occurred this morn ing in the First Presbyterian church , the pastor of which is Rov. Dr. Sundorland. The church was crowded to Its utmost capacity , in the congregation being many commis sioners to the general assembly. The presi dent and Mrs. Cleveland , accompanied by Rov. Dr. Morclo Smith , pastor of the church attended by Mrs. Cleveland In New York , and Uov. J. G. Thurber , a brother of Private Secretary Thurber , were present. Dr. Smith had been invited to preach the sermon , and took for his text : "Boar yo one another's burdens. " Ho spoke at length on the ovnngclizatlou of the masses , stating that one-half of our population was out of the church ; 7. > per cent of our young men and two-thirds of the laboring classes not being within its influence. The average Presbyterian - rian church of 115 members , ho said , was bringing in only eight additional members a year. At the conclusion of Dr. _ Smith's address i , Dr. Sunderland said : " 1 lim sure wo have all enjoyed Dr. Smith's sermon tills morning , it but thcro is ouo important ommisslon ; ho neglected to state tlio cause of the dissension and distraction in the Presbyterian church nt tills time the reason why the church has failed to accomplish what it ought to.

Ho had been asked to deliver a lecture in aid of n ladles' society. Ho consented , hut ho waxed caustlo and very nearly ungracious In doing oo. In the course of qulto a lengthy expression of critical opinion ho said it was no uao his giving a lecture ; the people of Omaha never attended lectures oven the fcoblo-mludcd could sco that but ho would pivo the lecture , though appreciation of any Intellectual effort wus at a discount In tills city.

MlnUtor Ulgnult' * Opinion on Frenoli-Cnna- < tlnn Immigration mill Annoxnlloit. Hon. G. A. Gignult of Quebec , deputy minister of agriculture of the Dominion of Canada , nnd a member of the royal commis sion now In Omaha , i * a recognized authority on the subjects of Immigration anil agricul ture in the land of the maple leaf. In response to a request for nn interview upon those and and other subjects , Mr. Gigault expressed his views qulto freely to n HEB reporter last evening. "It Is true that many 'French-Canadians have Immigrated to the United Stntcs within the past few years , " said Minister Glgnultiwilh n trace of regret In his utter- nnre. "Many of them , however , looked before - fore they leaped. They hired other men to look after their farms in Canada and then crossed the line into this coun try in search of n realization of the wonderful storlos of American resources nnd opportunities for making fortunes or bettering tholr llnanclnl condition. Koine of those who had nq farms came also , while many Canadians of other vocations besides that of farming caught the Immigration Im pulse. Notwithstanding thu fact thnt many re ma I nod In the United States , 1 find that many also returned to Canada after a short absence , especially the farmers , who seemed glad to return Co their native soil. " 1'ho MclClnloy bill drove many Canadians to ono of two alternatives , " continued Mr. Glgault. "Ono was to glvo up raising cereals for , export to the United States , and confine their farming duties to dairy products , or else migr.tto across the line. Must of the Canadian farmers , how ever , who chose the former of those alter natives and devoted their efforts to dairy products , were gratified nt the result of their experiment. It proved profitable to them. The Idea soon became popular. Canada sent moro cheese to England last year than the United States did. Statistics will substantiate my assertion. The cereal crops In Canada have naturally fallen off , for the reasons I have mentioned. Most of the farmers In the Dominion are abandoning wheat raising nnd devoting their attention almost exclusively to dairy products. The average cost of good farming lands In our country ranges from $30 to $00 per aero. Same of the government lands in certain localities 1 have known to sell for < )0 ) cents per acre. In my recent trip through Kansas 1 found that most of the farms In thnt state wore heavily mortgaged. In Canada the comparison is the reverse ns a rule. " "How is the sentiment In Canada , nt pros- cut , on the subject of annexation ! " asked the reporter. "Oh , the annexation movement has died a natural death , " said the distinguished Can- ndian with undisguised loyalty to his gov ernment. "For n while itho maritime prov inces wore favorable to it. There are sonio anncxatlonists in the Dominion now , but tnoy are not of sufficient prominence or in- lluenco to mold popular sentiment to any serious extent. The majority of the citizens in our country are loyal to the present gov ernment nnd would doubtless strongly re sent any attempt to disrupt it. Of course , thcro Is no unanimity of opinion on this subject. Sentiment is divided. But I say , freely and knowingly , that if tho'qucstion of annexation was sub mitted to the Canadian public today it would bo overwhelmingly rejected. In the prov ince ofiQuobec , especially , there has always been a spirit of loyalty manifested , but in the maritime provinces the subject of annex ation at ono time seemed to meet with ap proval of souto of the citizens. The senti ment at present throughout the Dominion is opposed to annexation. Canadians , however , entertain kindly feelings toward this coun try nnd its citizens. "I nm favorably impressed with Omaha and Nebraska. Everything here has a sur face indication of business prosperity. I spent n portion of today over in Council Bluffs , getting a practical idea of the prohi- bft'on ' question which our commission Is in vestigating. I found that Council Bluffs was not exactly Puritanical In Its observation of the Sabbath. Many saloons wore open und T made n mental note of the fact. " WHiIiIAM SOHAIIDT StTTCrOBS. All llecauso n Voting Woman AYould Not < io to the Turk vrlth Him. Just because a young woman refused to spend the afternoon with him at the park yesterday William Schmidt , a baker , shot and instantly killed himself. The dead man was about 34 years old and had been employed at Kucnno's bakery on South Sixteenth street for the past throe years. For some llttlo time he had been paying attention to Mary Loxvis , a young woman who clerked in the bakery , and when ho had finished his work ut noon ho nskcd Miss Lewis to accompany him to the par ! : . Upon being refused Schmidt loft the store without n word and wont directly to his room at S45 South Seventeenth street. An hour or so afterward the other inmates of the house hoard a shot nnd rushed into the room. Schmidt lay on the bed with n good-sl/ed bullet hole In his right temple. From appearances it was evident that Schmidt had sat down on the edge of the bed and then lired the shot which caused his death. The young man's parents , who live at 14GS North Twenty-eighth struct , wore notified after the body had been taken to the morgue. Miss Lewis was considerably shocked to hear of the affair , but said that she hardly thought her refusal to go to the park had anything to do with it. She also said that Schmidt had not been keeping company with her , and she never had considered him in tlio light of a lover. In speaking about the young man Mr Kuenno said ho was n hard-working , indus trious man and had boon a faithful employe. Ho hardly know what to think about the affair and know of no reason why Schmidt , should have taken lib lifo. Sheriff Bennett will hold an Inquest at 10 o'clock today. NO SCARCITY OF MONEY. Air.

Roedor returned yesterday from a six. weeks trip through the east , during which ho visited Now York , Boston , Phila delphia , Washington and Chicago. Ho made the trip iu the interest of u big enter prise In which ho was partially successful , notwithstanding the dopre sod condition of the eastern money market. "Whllo there Is a great stringency In the money market throughout the east , " said Mr , Roodcr , "ovory day shows a decided Im provement.

The colonel also imulo second on Jerry's faux pas. What , don't know what a faux pas is ? Well , I haven't ' tlmo to draw a diagram just now , the game's too hot. The colonel didn't linger long at Jack Mc- Auliffo's post , but dashed boldly for third , and made H too , joining General Trapper on the bench a moment later on Mr. Lacoy's wild and untamed throw. ricclit over again in the second , but not so with Grover Cleveland's myrmidons.

Corporal Haslor drove his tele phone polo viciously , but ineffectually through that diaphanous substance so wont to play with one's whiskers.

That was sudoriferous , wasn't it ? Solnco for the South Side , In the third the Shanahan family braced up temporarily. After that big blue Jay , Croft , had boon sidetracked at lirst , Major General Trapper made n very wild , weird throw , nnd Jollln" landed right side up with euro on the initial pillow. Captain McGiniss supplemented this by a misconncctlon on a low ball and Jallon perched on third , while Bradford took his place at iirst. Mahoney was hit with the ball and the bags were full.

Debs of Terre Haute , Ind. , ns been in Now York several days consult- ng friends nml old tlmo associates concern- ng the details of the org.tnlzatlon of the American Hallway union , a now labor order , Mr. Debs was secretary niid treasurer of ho Drothcrliooil of Locomotlvo Firemen fern n dozen years , but though unanimously re- "ilected last fall , resigned. In an interview Mr. Debs said lhat al- hough there are In the United States from 500,000 to 1,000,000 railway employes , not more than 15,000 nro members of railroad or ganizations. Mr. Debs gave as the reason "or the small memberships iu the . 'arious orders now in existence their machinery was too cumbersome mid altogether too expensive. There was also , ho said , too much one-man power in the l > rc.cut ! organizations. Mr. Debs added that t was proposed to gather all branches of nilroad employes into the new order , and that Its expenses would bo reduced to the minimum. There would bo no Initiation fco and as few ofllcera as possible. The organ- ' 'zatlon will not DO a "secret , oath-bound society , " but each member will bo bound by 'us simple word. How to llcduco iiponsc . Continuing , Mr. Debs said : "Wo shall re duce expenses oy consolidating in the matter of halls nnd mooting places. There is no reason why , iu any city whcro there Is a lumberorrailroad organizations , each should uivo a hall of its own. "Wo shall have a meeting place In each city where all organizations may meet. In it big city lllto Now York or Chicago wo can bettor afford to own a building in which there may bo two or three or more halls , if necessary , so that ns many organizations as deslro may meet at the sumo time. Those , of course , need not take up the entire build ing , and if they do not wo can rent the un occupied part at sucli terms as will give us something of an incomo. "Wo .shall establish a dally newspaper In the interest of railroad employes and also a monthly magazine. Our daily newspaper will bo published In Chicago. The capital is ready in abundance and the plans are about completed. It will not bo a largo newspaper , but It will bo large enough to contain , not only the news of the labor world nnd the railroad world in particular , but all the essential telegraphic news of the day ns well. Wo shall furnish this paper at the cost of production , our object in publishing it not being proilt In any sense , except to .the men who support it , and wo believe they will proilt by the possession of such u news paper.

The mac.izino will bo run on the same lines as fnr as price Is con cerned , ns the daily , but it will necessarily not be so much of a medium for the distribu tion of news. "Tho newspaper will sell for a cent nnd the magazine will be put out at the lowest possible ligurc. Another feature of the ed ucational department will bo the monthly meetings , which will , to a largo extent , If not altogether , take thd plaOo of the ordi nary weekly lodge meetings. To these meetings all members of the order in the town where they nro held will bo Invited an'd they will bo addressed by the heads of the districts on sucli subjects' are of vital Interest to workingmen. Wo believe thnt those meetings will stimulate the thought of railroad men greatly. "A meeting for the perfection of the American Railway union's organization will bo hold in Chicago on Juno 20 , and the plans so far ns they have been decided upon , may bo roughly outlined.as follows : Organized by Districts. The entire country will bo divided Into districts , of which there will bo twelve. From Chicago twelve organizers , ono from each district , will bo sent out and they will go from center to center organizing llrst dis trict headquarters , or capitals , and after this is done , headquarters for subdivisions. The boundaries of the divisions have not yet been fixed. The subdivisions will bo sub ordinate , of course , to the district capitals , and each subordinate organization will bo entitled to delegates in proportion to Its membership , say one to every ! JOO. "Thero will bo no yearly state conventions nor grand conventions these cost from $ K,000 to f0,000. ( ! but there will bo n quadrennial convention of the entire order , and sixty days before the holding of a quadrennial convention the lodges or unions will elect delegates , who will meet at the district cap itals , and cheese delegates to tlio quadren nial convention. Each district will bo enti tled to delegates in proportion to its mem bership. It is supposed thnt the quadren nial convention shall do its work in n day or nt moat two days , and that Us business shall ho mainly the election of a board of direct ors of twenty or thirty practical railroad men. To this board of directors will bo en trusted the business of the order. "Wo propose to make this an organization of rugged workmen. Wo shall study econ omy. Wo shall Include every branch of rail road employment from the lowest to the highest , and without doing tiway with special organisations , wo shall strive to bring all under ono common fold. The first quadrennial convention of the American Hallway union will bo hold next fall , " OITOSII > xo TIII : u. it. T. Trouble Mnjr Occur on tlio Northwestern ns a Hesnlt. CHICAGO , III. , Mav 21.
