THE LAST SUNDAY IN CAMP. Closing Exercises of the Meetings at Acton and Bethany Park. Distinguished Visiting Clergymen Preach the Sermons—Extensive Improvements Contemplated at Bethany. AT ACTON CAMP-GKOim Sermons by Dlittngalslied Ministers from Abroad— Neoring the Close. The usual excursion trains were run to Acton camp-ground, yesterday, and they, were well patronized. The crowd on the ground during the day numbered, it is estimated, 3,000 persons —about two-tliirds of the number that visited the camp the previous Sunday. The day passed pleasantly, without anything of an unusual nature occurring. The services were well attended, and they were made especially interesting. The love-feast in the morning, at 8 o’clock, was conducted by Rev. J. K. Pye, the president of the camp-meet-ing association. The interesting feature of the day's services, however, was the sermon at 10:30 o’clock, by Rev. W. P. Stow, of Chicago. The text of his discourse was “Verily, I say unto you, whosoever believeth on me hath everlasting life,” St. John vi, 47, and the theme was “Christian Faith.’’ Though much has been written and spoken on the subject of faith, still Dr. Stow said, “We do not need anything to understand it We know it as we know love, faith, fear, and every other state of the mind—by consciousness. The work of the Christian teacher or minister is not to give philosophical sermons or essays on the subject of faith, but to direct the faith that already exists In every soul to the true object of salvation. Th question to be considered is, is that object a thewy or proposition, or Is it a living person! The speaker said that faith in the person of Christ is the only morally transformative power. Doctrine is the image of Christ, formed in the understanding. It is the photograph of Jesus, but there is a vast difference between the photograph and the original. There is a necessity for a moral transformation- in every soul. Faith in theories and propositions, in facts, or in a series of facts, cannot produce the revolution. An essential to this transformation is a generation in the heart of a love of truth, and of virtue. Our loves are our masters. They inspire our motives and prompt our actions. The strongest love is the monarch of the soul. The love of sin in the form of carnal pleasure and selfishness is the sovereign passion of a depraved heart To dethrone ana expel this despot there must be generated within a love of goodness and of truth. Faith in propositions or theories about virtue and holiness cannot accomplish this work. The soul must have goodness incarnate, bodied forth in a living personality. In Christ we have this, and nowhere else. He embodies in His life the ideal of what humanity should be. Living Christ, not a dead creed, is the magnet that draws, the powe# that transforms. Heart, crushed and bleeding, wants heart, not dogma, Heart is the wily power thatcan touch heart. Words are but cold statuary—the heart cannot repose on marble. What we need is i new consciousness which, in its rising flow, will submerge the olcf. This can' only come through new life, with new affections’ and new aspirations This new life i £ not in theory or propositions, but in Christ He is the source of all life. Divine life is not the result of ordinances, sacraments or any of our Christian activities, but- is a divine importation. "I am the way, the truth, the life. lam the true vine, ye are the branches.” The life is in the vine, not in the branches Faith is the instrument that conveys this to the soul. What can satisfy a man's cravings for the objects of love! The deepest hunger in man is the hunger of heart or some object on which to settle his heart’s affections. The being that can give perfect satisfaction to our love must possess certain qualities—perfection, reciprocity and continuance. The discovery of imperfections in the object of our affections causes pain. The bestowment of affection without reciprocation, brings anguish to the spirit The thought that our dearest affections will he iudely sundered and cease, is always distressing. In Christ and nowhere else the hunger of the soul is met in the perfection, reciprocity and continuance. The weakness of • the church in the past has not been for want of faith in its doctrines, its polity or ritual, but a personal trust in a personal Christ A piece of steel may be brought in contact with a treatise of magnetism without receiving magnetic power. If it possesses magnetism it must be brought in contact with the magnet itself—not the treatise. If our hearts possess divine magnetism that shall draw the world to God they must not only be imbued with the doctrines of our holy religion, but must, by faith, be brought in vital contact with Christ, the divino maguet We are not decrying churches nor faith in sound doctrine. These are essential. Doctrines are not only the images of Christ, the photographs of Jesus,’ but they art the guide-boards along the highway of life, with index finger pointing toward a personal Christ as the only name given under heaven by which we can be saved. If all the members of Christ’s church believed with a living faith in the one personal Christ, bigotry would cease. Diversity of opinion must exist as long as mind is mind; but where all hearts are centered in the living Christ, diversity of opinion among brethren becomes the eharm of genuine fellowship If two souls love God supremely, they love each other as themselves. The sorinon in the afternoon was delivered in the pavilion by Rev. William Runyan, of Xenia, O. His text was, “They saw no man save Jesus." St Matthew, xvii, 8, and the theme was, “The Great Savior.” He gave three reasons which may be supposed to have led to the transfiguration—the manifestation of kingly . glory, the exhibition of himself to His kingdom, affording the apostles a sublime view of His royalty and majesty, and lost, the presence of Moses and Elias on the scene in glorified bodies. In answering the interrogation, who was Jesus, he said that Jesus was the Christ, the Messiah, the anointed one, the sent of God, to fiil the divinely-appointed appointed office—the great teacher. These offices combined to constitute Him the Savior of men. He saves not a few, but all. Finally, He will be the judge of all men. Eighteen hundred and eighty-four years ago this Jesus was pointed out to the Jews by the angels and to the gentiles by the little star of Bethlehem, first seen by the wise men of the east. The star has ascended higher and higher, and to the vision of men has Increased in glory; and the Jesus over whom this little star arose is the Savior to whom all men who would be saved must gjirrender. Rev. J. Nebeker, of Battle Creek, preached last night- The text of his sermon was: “He that believeth not shall be damned"—Matthew xvi, 15—and in his discourse be entered into a discussion of truth as a non-compromise with falsehood, and the penalty for untruthful ness. CLOSING DATS AT KETHANY The Ministerial Association Elects Officers —The Interesting' Services of the Sabbath. The smallest number known in the existence es the Bothany Association was in attendance to-day, at the second day’s session of the Indiana Christian Ministerial Association. At ono time but forty-seven persons were present at the tabernacle, though many mere were hunting a cool place in the hotel verandas and about the grounds. The hot weather is the principal cause of the paucity of visitors. Many of the preachers were obliged to leave in order to meet their congregations on Sunday. The essay on “Music in the Ancient and Modem Church,’' by C. P. Hendershot. of Bedford, was of groat interest, and occasioned much*fa vtfraMe dOftuhent Prof. Benton's paper on the question, “To What Extent Is the Restoration of the Ancient Order Practicable?" was ono of the ablest of the whole series. T. J. Clark, of Vincennes, also redd an entertaining essay on the tenure of the pastoral office. The Ministerial Association elected the followlug officers: President, King Pendletou, es
New Albany; vice-president, T. J. Clark, of Vincennes; secretary, J. H. O. Smith, of Edinburg; treasurer, T. M. wiles, of Connersville. THB SABBATH'S PROCH*DINGS. Two trains, one of nine coaelies the other of ten, wore loaded with the visitors to Bethany yesterday. The attendance ffiras exceeded by that of last Sunday by one-fourth, and there were from 3,000 to 3,500 people on the grounds. The Sunday school, superintended by Professor Atwater, of Bloomington, was held at 9 a.m., and closed just as the trains were arriving, consequently the attendance was very small, comparatively speaking. At 10:30 Rev. Isaac Errett, editor of the Christian Standard, of Cincinnati, was introduced and delivered a powerful discourse, which was attentively listened t-o by 2.000 people. Although moet of the visitors brought lunch in baskets, more than five hundred dined at the Assembly Hotel. At 2p. m. Elder Pettigrew, of New York, preached to a large audience. At 3:30 the communion service was attended by part of the audience. The evening sermon was preached to a small but intelligent congregation by Elder L. H. Jameson, of Indianapolis. The order was excellent throughout tho day. The weather was hot and sultry and toward night threatened rain. The assembly services closed yesterday for the year. Many improvements are contemplated by the managers for next year. By building a short dam connecting with tho railroad embankment a lake of eight acres area will be formed, along which the lots for cottages are to be laid out Some cottages may bo built this fall, and by encampment time next year there will probably be at least a dozen erected. The people of Wabash, who own considerable stock of the association, have their lots laid out along the southwest side of the park, on a street to be called Wabash avenue. Another improvement is to be a reservoir upon the high hill on the northwest side, which will furnish water for the hotel, fountains, etc. The association has made a promising beginning, and will eventually become one of the most beautiful summer resorts anywhere in the State. MBS. MARIA HATPIN. She Emphatically Affirms the Truth of the Charges Against Mr. Cleveland. Buffalo livening Telegraph. When the Telegraph unmasked Cleveland it did not know where Maria Halpin was. When it succeeded in locating her a member of the Telegraph staff was detailed to visit New Rochelle, N. Y., to get, if possible, from her own lips the story of her relations with Grover Cleveland. He found New Rochelle a place of some 5,000 or 6,000 inhabitants, on the New York & Now Haven Railway, seventeen miles from New York, and largely populated by families of men doing business in the metropolis. Here Maria Halpin, whose name for the past few weeks has been conspicuous in the newspapers of the country, has lived in seclusion for several years as housekeeper for an uncle-in-law, James A. Secord, an elderly man, by trade a carpenter, and she has there lived a quiet, honest, humble, and useful life. The Telegraph representative talked with a number of responsible and well-informed citizens of the village, and they ail gave the same testimony. Maria Halpin had lived among them for years, and had conducted herself with propriety, had made friends, was esteemed a good woman, and until the recent exposure growing out of Grover Cleveland's nomination for the presidency, was not known to have a blemish on her life. In fact, when it was first reported that she was the woman in the Cleveland case, those of New Rochelle’s inhabitants who knew the quiet decorous, unobtrusive housekeeper at the modest Secord home, could hardly believe that she was the Maria Halpin in question. Having satisfied himself of her standing in the community where she lived, the Telegraph' representative turned his steps toward the Secord dwelling He found it to be a modest frame building on a street adjacent to one of the village cemeteries, and he was met at the door by James A. Secord. Mr. Secord is a man seemingly about sixty years old, of plain address, who has grown gray in New Rochelle. Mr. Secord jealously guarded his nieee from newspaper men, and, as he seemed endowed with the gift, to a large degree, of determining their profession, they could not gain access to her, although not a few had tried. The Telegraph representative was turned from the door after a few moments parleying, but a citizen of Buffalo gained an audience with Maria Halpin, as the bearer of a message from a friend, and received from her a statement, of wnich the following is an important part: mahia halpin’s statement. “I was employed at Flint& Kent’s when Grover Cleveland persistently sought and finally made my acquaintance. I was not as stout as I look now, being tall and slender, and it is a wonder that I endured all I suffered in the years from 1874 to 1877. My child, Oscar Folsom Cleveland, was born September 14, 1874. Grover Cleveland is his father, and to say that any other man is responsible for his birth is infamous. The attempt to connect the dead Oscar Folsom with me or my boy, of which I hear, is cruel and cowardly. I had but a very slight acquaintance with Oscar Folsom. It does not seem possible, after all I have suffered for Grover Cleveland and my boy’s sake, that, the attempt will be made to further blacken me in the eyes of the world. No one knows the extent of my sufferings- After my child was taken from me I begged Cleveland on my knees to let me have sight of my baby. He was immovable. I found where the boy was, and one day I rushed in upon his. keeper, snatched him up, and ran away before they could stop me. My sufferings subsequently, my fruitless efforts to have him (Cleveland) fulfill bis promise of marriage, his neglect of myself and child, my abduction and violent treatment by his hired tools, are truthfully but only partially told in the Buffalo Telegraph of July 21. It would he impossible to cover events that made up those years of shame, suffering and degradation forced upon me by Grover Cleveland.” The above is the part of Maria Hatpin's statements bearingmost directly upon the points in the Clevelaud-Haipin case brought out clearly in the Telegraph's terrible tale, it is substantially her language, and it Is exactly her sentiment. The statement was made on the afternoon of July 29, 1884, and lodged with the Telegraph, duly attested, a few days later. Th gentleman to whom she made it says in the course of a long interview with her she wept bitterly as she told of her wrongs. Her manner and appearance carried tho conviction of sincerity. When told that it was reported she had made or was about to make a statement exonerating Govcmb("Cleveland from the charges preferred against him in the Telegraph of July 21. Maris Halpin drew herself up as if preparing for a supreme effort, and replied in a most impressive and earnest manner: “Me make a statement ex onerating Grover Cleveland! Never. I would rather put a bullet through my heart." Sho said she could not truthfully make any such statement, and Grover Cleveland would not dare ask her to humiliate herself again that ho might enjoy honors and wealth, while on his account she was exiled from kindred and friends, patiently waiting for dentil to end her misery. She then went into details of what, she had suffered from 1874 to 1877, at tho hands of Cleveland or his agents, that would melt a heart of stone. Her statements we fortified and corroborated by facts known in the case, and by circumstances and records bearing upon that eventful period of her life. A Farmer and Two Convicts Killed. Lexington, Ky., Aug. 17.—Altout 11 o'clock this morning, a man living aliout nine miles from here, notified the sheriff that George Also]) and Theojphilns Graves, the two escaped con clots, who fed the recent revolts in the penitentiary, at Frankfort, had been seen in that neighbor hood. Deputy Sheriff Rogers heeded a posse and immediately left for the scene. They were discovered in the cornfield of George Cassell. Mr. Cassell joined the posse. The convicts, on being surprised, immediately opened on the posse, killing Mr. (Jaasell. The posse returned the fire, killing both Alsop and Graves. Arrest of an Ks. Post in aster. Cincinnati, Aug. 17.—Postmaster A R. Johnson, who mysteriously disappeared from Grantsvtlle, W. Va., a few days ago, wasurrested by the' government authorities in Covington. Ky., yesterday. Johnsbn admits discrepancies in his account with the government, but claims they amount to but a few dollars. "* “Fok economy und comfort-, every spring.

THE DIAMOND AND THE TURF The Indianapolis Club Defeats Louisville in a Closely Contested Game. Games Played Elsewhere—The Championship Record—Racing at Chicago, P.righton Beach and Monmouth. PITCHER BARR’S SUCCESSFUL DEBUT, The Louisville Club Defeated by Indianapolis by a Score of 5 to 2. Barr, the new pitcher for the Indianapolis ball club, made his first appearance in the box before a home audience, at the Bruce grounds, yesterday, and to his individual efforts probably can he attributed the victory over the Louisville elub, which was defeated by a score of sto 2. He struck out fifteen men, a splendid record, and one that is seldom equaled. Hie delivery is both speedy and deceptive, and he has fine command of the ball. He was splendidly supported by Robinson, who, after the two first innings, Was strikingly effective, his throwing being particularly accurate. His record of seventeen putouts and four assists is something to be proud of. The visitors were outplayed at every point, as they only made four scattering hits, and numerous eiTors. The game does not count in the championship series, as it was only an exhibition game. Following is THE SCORE. Indianapolis. a.b. r. b. p. o. a. e.

According to the averages of American Association players for July, the Indianapolis players stand relatively as follows, in fielding: Catchers, Keenan, ninth; pitchers, McCauley, first, Mckeon, tenth; short stops, Phillips, eighth: third basemen, Callahan, twelfth; second basemen, Merrill, ninth; left fielders, Peltz. nineteenth; center fielders, Holdaworth, fourth, Weihe, fourteenth; right fielders. Butler. ninth, Dorgan, nineteenth. There is evidently an error in computing Kerins’s average as first baseman, as it accounts for but 120' chances in fifty-three games, which is manifestly incorrect. According to this he is placed last on the list. At the beginning of July he was fourth, and only made two errors during the month. Among the battery averages Keenan leads for Indianapolis as tenth, average .321; Dorgan follow* as eighteenth, with .294; Callahan thirtysixth. with . 264. The others are away down iu the list, but iu this schedule the names of none
of the new players appear. The general fielding average of the club is .887, seventh in the list; batting average .228, ninth in the list Base Ball Notes. Barr is undoubtedly a valuable acquisition to the Indianapolis elub. The Circle base bail elub defeated the “Shepherd” club yesterday by a score of 11 to 7. The Columbus club will play here to-morrow and on Thursday, and the home club will then go to Cincinnati, where they play a single game, and thence to St Louis for three games. Ex-mpnager O’Leary is still in the city, and there is little doubt that his name will be taken from the black-list There is a rumor afloat that there is a probability of him again being made manager of the Indianapolis elub, but it can bu traced to no definite source. Devinney, one of the new umpires, made his first appearance before an Indianapolis audience yesterday, and his prompt and accurate decisions created a favorable impression, although at times he was treated discourteously by the crowd, which was as unreasonable as usual.

Cincinnati, Ang. 16. —Justiee Stanley Matthews, of the Supreme Court of the United States, in a suit brought by the city of Covington agaiust the various national banks of that city to recover taxes alleged to be due on their surplus real estate and office fixtures, has rendered a decision. The banks had obtained a a temporary restraining order, and the case came up on a motion to make the injunction perpetual. The Justice holds that furniture and real estate ore exempt from city taxation because of a provision in the Kentucky statutes making a specific tax on each share of national bank stock, which is to he in lieu of all othef taxation, but if this was not the case the furniture would still be exempt because the act of Congress, without whose authority it can uot be taxed by the State authority, does not permit it. but it does authorize the taxation of real estate. Nor were the surplus fund and undivided profits subject to taxation under the Congressional authority, which forbids the taxing of shares of stock beyond the limit fixed by the State statute of fifty cents per share of SIOO. A perpetual injunction was granted. The Milwaukee Soldiers’ Home. Milwaukee, Aug. 16.—The congressional committee appointed to investigate the Soldiers’ Home, sat at the Milwaukee branch all day and heard about a dozen complaints of veterans. All had reference to poor food, the privilege allowed a few men to work outside toe grounds, and hard work imposed as a fine for breaches of the peace or the rules of the Home, and the personal complaint* were about pension money paid to destitute wives against the consent of the inmates. H. P. Hopkins, a young attorney, offered the affidavit of one Moulton, and said he appeared for certain well-known citizens, but General Hobart, whom he mentioned as one, happened to come in and denied that such was the case. The committee adjourned till Monday that Hopkins and his case be heard to better advantage. Tho affidavit refers to the alleged confinement of Moultou at the ■county insane asylum by order of General Sharpe without a certificate from physicians or any regular commitment papers. Decrease in Receipts of XUsston Money. Boston, Augr 16.—The American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions makes the following statement: At the close of eleven months we are obliged to report the regular receipts of the present year $26,000 less than for the corresponding eleven months of the breeding year.

LABOR TROUBLES. Serious Results Likely to Follow tile Pennsylvania Miners’ Strike. Pittsburg, Aug. 16 —The miners’ strike in the fourth pool assumed a serious aspect to-day, and grave fears are entertained of an outbreak. The failure of Niels men to come out of the mines, this morning, as promised,, had a depressing effect upon the strikers, and rumors that Deputy Sheriff McClure, who has been guarding Neil's property, was using his official character to persuade the miners to stay at work, excited them almost beyond the control of their leaders. Threats loud and deep were made against McClure, and it was with the greatest difficulty that President Costello prevented them from going to the mine and mobbing the supposed offender. They make no effort to conceal their bitter feeling, and some assert their avowed intention now to request the working miners to join them, and if they refuse, to resort to more, effective measures, but what the measures will be they refuse to say. Several cases of intimidation were reported to-day by men on the way to work. One miner says be was surrounded by twenty men, who threatened to do him bodily harm if he went to work. Tho citizens are complaining that the strikers demand food, and accompany their requests wit.li threats of what they will do if it is not secured. If the demands and threats continue they assert the strikers will have to abide by the consequences. To-night Deputy McClure made information against six strikers, charging them with conspiracy and assault. The arrests will be made at once, and trouble is anticipated. A dispatch from Coal Center, Pa.,says Officers McClure, Reilly, Shaffer, Pressly and Forsythe went to the camp to-night and arrested Joseph Dowler and Benj. Ryan, the only two they eould identify as having been concerned in the intimidation. They were taken to town and released on S3OO bail each. The miners have telegraphed to the lower pools for reinforcements, an a by Monday five hundred men are expected. There is great excitement, but no demonstration, A warrant has also been issued for the arrest of the miners' president, Costello: Tho Striking Bricklayers at Chicago. Chicago, Ang. lft.—The striking bricklayers of this city, to the number of 1,500, who ceased work a month ago owing to a reduction in their wages from $2.50 to $1.87 a day, held a mass meeting in the northern portion of the city this afternoon. A proposition to send a committee to arbitrate the matter was voted down. It was decided to have a procession and mass meeting in Market square to-morrow afternoon, when it is expected all the bricklayers affected hy the reduction, Vo the number of nearly 5,000, will be present. Damaging Hail and Rain Storm. Pittsburg, Aug. 16.—Between 5 and 6 o'elock this evening this section was visited by the worst thunder-storm of the season. Rain tell in torrents, the wind blew a hurricane and hail as largo as marbles fell in all parts of the two citiea Danziger’s trimming store, on Market street, was struck by lightning and the roof partially torn off. The rain poured in the opening and goods were damaged to the extent of SIO,OOO. Library Hall was also struck, but only slightly damaged. In the Seventeenth ward a new frame house was blown down, and on the South Side a large frame building in course of erection was completely demolished. In all parts of Pittsburg and Allegheny, cellars were flooded, and in certain localities tho streets were covered with water to the depth of from two to three feet. The damage will reach many thousands of dollars. Persecuted by the Distiller*' Pool. Des Moines, Aug. 16.— The attorneys here, hired by the distillers’ pool to shut up the International distillery under the State liquor law, caused two cars to be seized under a search warrant, but, after being taken into custody, the cars were found to be empty. The only liquor : taken was two barrels of alcohol, which the proprietor set out for that purpose, to be given an opportunity to test his right to manufacture. All previous prosecutions against this distillery have failed, and the proceedings are kept up by ; the pool simply to embarrass the business of the distillery here, and destroy its competition. The Prohibitionists take no part, as the distillery is believed to comply strictly with the law. The Sharon Conspiracy. San Francisco, Aug. 16. —The Alta to-day publishes a written statement from Nellie Brockotfc. a witness for the plaintiff in the Sharon divorce case, in which she alleges that the word “wife” in the “dear-wife” lettex’s is a forgery. The marriage contract was written over the signature of Senator Sharon on paper stolen from his room by the plaintiff. George VV. Tyler, counsel for the plaintiff in the suit pending, furnished the form of the contract. Bread Without Yeast. It is a well-known fact that bread made with yeast, if eaten before it becomes stale, ferments again in the stomach, producing indigestion and numerous other complaints. Bread raised with Royal Baking Powder, instead of yeast, is entirely without this defect; but, on the contrary, is one of the most effectual preventives of indigestion or dyspepsia. By the use of the Royal Baking Powder the saccharine properties of the flour, whieh are destroyed by the fermentation with yeast, are preserved and the bread is made more nutritious. Ten per cent, mere bread is baked —because of this saving—from the same quantity of flour. The Royal Baking Powder will also make sweet, white bread from an inferior quality of flour, a property possessed by no other leavening agent. Thus, much flour that is dark in color, or from other cause is considered below the finer grades, and therefore much cheaper, can be utilized and turned into a perfectly sweet and wholesome bread. Nor can bitter bread ever result from tho use of too much, or more than the required quantity’, of Royal Baking Powder, as, whether used in small or large quantities, its proportions are in such exact equivalents that they always neutralize each other. Bread made in this way does not require mixing over night, but may be prepared ready for the oven in a few minutes; an advantage that will be readily appreciated by every- housekeeper. ANNOUNCEMENTS.
