Old “1-" Hook and Ladder Entertain-
Incul.
One of the largest and finest audiences
ever assembled in Music Hall, was that
of Tuesday evening, when about a thous-
and of our best. citizens gathered there
to enjoy the ministrel and dramatic en-
tertanuuent given by (lid “'9“ Hook &
Laddrr company. The vocal talent con-
sisted of J. Hall, J. l’. Treatlwell, H. S~
Hatch. C. W. Hoyt. \V. F. Ambler. Dr.
C. \V, Many, N. Mead, F. Lauder, F.

and F. Bouton. llocslin‘s Orchestra of
New York began the entertainment
with selections f m plantation melo-
dies, which was f lowed by the “Sold-
iers t‘liorus” fro “Faust.“ In all the
choruses there fine singing—full
in volume and w l balanced. The only
criticrsm would a little lack of spirit,
but this was mere .lian overlmlanced hv
other exeellencles. Mr. NV. F. Ambler's
solo. “Softly U'er the Rippling “‘nters."
was well sung. and was warmly applaud-
ed. Dr. C. W. Many‘s "Bohuukus and
Josephus.“ was funny. and provoked
much laughter. Mr Horace S. llateh
sang "Suite Roy." and sang it well. Mr.
llatvh hasa much more than ordiuarv
good voice. and knows how to handle it.
Dr. Marty‘s solo "Raining for Dar t‘oon"
brought out his full vocal powers.
They were immense. judging from the
expanse of m» t’r-iiinscle necessrirv to
allow of their drs day. The Deer Ir ~turd

Rev. C. M. I’egg. at the Methodist
church, Sunday evening. preached to a
large congregation on Divorce. “’9 can
give only an outline of the sermon. 'l he
preacher said 2
This is a subject too inirtquemly
treated on in the pulpit. 'l'iie tearful
prevalencu (if the horrid practice Will
justify its present'ititm to the poople iu
the service of (i H's-house. \Vhilc in
England out of 3.000.000 of married
couples. there were in a year but 215
divorces, in this country a single State
is reputed to have granted some 2.000 in
a single year. The courts in certain sec~
tions are largely engaged in this Hcavere
daring and soul-destroying business.
The General t‘onfereuco of the .‘I. E.
Church has said. " If it were possible to
aggregate the number of divorces grant-
ed In the United States during the last
quarter of a century, it is believed that
the parties thereto and their families
together would amount to a number of
persons nearly or quite equal to the
population of some of our Common»
wealths."
Among the causes for this monstrous
evil are the civil laws permitting divorce
for other than the Scriptural condition
thereto. So awfully prevalent “err- the
separations between husbands and wives
in France at one period under a loose
divorce law. Abbe Gregoire exclaimed.
“Tlusluw well soon ruin the nation!"
l'nder a similar system in R mic. Seneca
tells us divorces "were the rule and
fullltllllnt‘SS the exception 2" that “ wo-
men married in order to be divorced or
Wore divorced in order to be married."
There is also the facility wuh which
divorces can be obtained. (lid Trrheus
in Terence says “that there can be no
great harm it a young man. when ll
seemsto be convenient, marry :\ lnb'
whom he docs not love Yv“ “N“ W“

Proposed “clitoral of the New \‘ork
Freight “cl-0t.
The dirctors of the New York. ch
lluveu our Hartford Railroad company
have for ame time been considering a
project in moving the New York clown-
town freight depot from Center street to
Pier 50. This project was discussed by
them at heir regular meeting in New
York. Sahrday, but no definite action
was taken
“The audition to our passenger ac-
commodaions at Fortysecond street.“
said President Watmus, “was rendered
apositive Messity by our rapidly ins
creasing; mittens“ traffic. The new
arrangemettis web that all trains ar-
riving in NW Y-rrk run into the Annex.
and all train: draining from New York
leave from tin (Id depot. Formerly the
incoming and ing trains were min-
gled, sothat t anger 'to human life
was much 3 r, and the inconveni-
ence to the olieals constantly increas-
ing. “’hen oitirel completed the
Annex will be! ham some addition to
ral depot. There has
“5
, that we may run cars
ferry them to Jersey
less time than is now
ing from Harlem to
Jersey y. e possibility of such a
thing is, borne r, very remote and noth-
ing whatever. a definite character has
been done abgup it."

This easy system of divorce is a terri-
ble evil because it furnishes a motive to
many to seek for a separation from
husband or wife. Jerome tells us of a
woman married to her twenty-third
husband, and she was his twentydirst
wife. more properly mistress. Au Eng-
lish judge said, “Purple are made good
husbands and wives by beinr.r given to
understand that they must be husbands
and wives. and ill—assorted individuals
must, sometimes suffer for the general
good.“ For this a secular paper tells us,
“The social condition of the United
is badly houeycom'bed with: adulterous
practices.“ The status of thousands of
men and women in this counlrv legally
divorced, by the moral law, is nothing
else than that of adultery. Speakin of
tho-re unsoripturally divorced, Proof out
Dwight, of Yale College, said. “\Vhat—
ever husbands or judges or legislators
may think or declare or do, all these
parties will, by their subsequent marria-
ges, become guilty of adultery.“ Men
and women can only be husbands and
wives where the rightful moral condi-
tions thereto exist, and in absence there
of no priest or judge can make them
husband and wife: they are simply a
man and his mistress whose impure re~
lation is legalized by a godless law.
This free and easy divorce subverts
homes. imperils the welfare of society
and the State. It is corrupting to the
church of God. In the Hebron Congre-
gational church was a woman cohabiting
with the fourth living woman, of whom
only the first was a wife, the rest being
only immoral divorce-bill partners. No
marvel when Beecher had called the
dead adulterer Richardson a true man
and a servant of God it. required a
$100,000 salar , some of the ablest law-
yers of New 'ork, and the tremendous
influence of Plymouth church to drag
him out of the free-love slush of the
awful gulf of blackness which Tiltou
and Company had opened for his feet.
It invades the right of God who insti-

A Gaul Furnace Heater.
It is an old saying that a leaky roof or
asmoking chimne will ruin the dispo-
oition or the mos saintly woman on
earth. If this beso, we think a mean
furnace in a house will turn all the
honey sweetness and sugar tafl‘y in a
woman‘s nature into lime juictl and sul-
phuric acid. We know a family that
for two dreary winters have wrestled
with one of these abominations—one of

Modern Idolatry and \\'orldlineoa.
Rev. James H. Ross, the pastor of the
(‘ongregational church, preached last ,
Sabbath evening. the second of a course
of sermons on the first five of the ten
commandments. His subject was “The
Second and Third Commandments appli-
ed to our own Times." His text was I.
t ‘or. _\':l~t. "Therefore, my dearly beloved,
flee from idolatry." He stated that he
had chosen his text from the New
Testament deliberately in order to show
at once that after the life and death of
(‘hrisg and within the primitive
churches. there was still need ofcautiou
against the sins which the criginal com-
mandments to the Jews at Sinai prohi-
bited. He. believed and intended to
show that in emence the prohibitions
against idolatry, gods many and lords
many, were still applicable. He had
coupled the two commandments
together for treatment. because,
although there was a distinction between
them, they were closely akin. They
were thus coupled in the law itself, in
Leviticus xxvt : I—“Ye shall make you
no idols nor gruven image, neither rear
you up a standing image. neither shall
ye get up any image of stone in your
land. to bow down unto it: for I am the
Lord your God." From the time of
Augustine to the time of the Reforma-
tion, a period of 1.00) years, the sc-
called second commandment was added
to the first. and the number ten was
made out by treating the last as two
commandments. The letter of ‘ terpro—
tation killrth but the Spirit giver? life.
If the seetmd commandment to be
interpreted literally, everv statute eve
picture in every age since the common ~
men! was issued has been a breach of it.

Take covert-usness as an example of
earthlincss, of false worship. of Insufli~
cieuey. It is declared in the new Testa-
ment to be idolatry. and to exclude
front the kingdom of God. a _ sin
akin to adultery. uncleanneSs, Witch~
craft. barrel. murders. drunken-
ness and such like. How severe. there—
fore. should the condemnation be of the
\\‘0r.~‘l\ll\ of the so called “Almighty
Dollar.“ and of the utheistic spirit which
boldlv declares that a good bank
account is worth infinitely more to the
poor. the widow. the orphan. than the
uncished promises of God and the word
of Had. The love of money is a root of
all kinds of evil. of evil deoires and evil
actions. of such abominable businesses as
Sabbath sports, gambling. the liquor
tranlic. and flu-circulation of impure
literature.
The opportunities of making money
were so numerous in this country that
Mauimon worship was our peculiar dan-

Nineteen out of twenty who emigrate
front one twirl of the land are hasty to be

an honest and decent livelihood for
themsnlves and those dependent. upon

nobler things. The exceptional man
who goes \Vcsl for some other pu
than moucvmaking. is either an invalid
or home missionary. Many deposit their
religion as they cross the Missouri or the
Mississippi. with a vague expectation,
perhaps. of picking it up once more on
the return tri . Such. at least is the
testimony of \\ estern pastors. Thedif-
ticulty in carrying forward moral and
t‘hristian enterprises is in many instan—
ces, including the local church and com-
munity. is not too little but too much
money. and too strenuous devotiou only
to that which yields money in return for
effort. Dr. Strong. in a work not yet
published. but the proof-sheets of which
were in the speaker‘s pomession, rays:
"The love of money is the besetting’sin
of commercial peoples. and runs in the
very blood of Anglo-Saxons, who arts
the great wealth creators of the world.
