DR. BARBOUR’S ABLESERMON

At the First Presbyterian Church—A Fine Pro.
gramme Rendered at Temple
Emanuel.
. Thanksgiving was generally observed
Shore yesterday, nearly everybody taking
a holiday, or at least a half holiday.
Quite a number of the men spent the
day In the woods hunting, while others
Sought amusement or recreation in other
(hays.
The postoffice and banks were closed
and the schools were not In session.
A great number of the merchants
closed their doors and suspended busi
ness at noon in order that their clerks
might enjoy a well earned rest.
Several private dinners and Informal
affairs were given and Thanksgiving ser
vices were held in quite a number of the
churches.
The day was an ideal one, the weather
being cool and bracing with a slight rise
of The mercury In the afternoon.
Church ot the Advent.
Thanksgiving services were held In the
Church of the Advent, conducted by the
rector, Re\‘ Dr. T. J. Beard, who gave a
short talk appropriate to the occasion.
liAt the conclusion of the service the holy
sacrament was administered to the mem
bers of the church.
Presbyterian Churches.
All the Presbyterian churches of the
pity united in Thanksgiving services at
the First Presbyterian church. Dr. John
Parbour, pastor of the South Highland
resbyterian church, preached the
Thanksgiving sermon from the text:
. Psalm, cxlv, 15: ‘‘Thou openest Thy
[hand and satisflest the desire of every
living thing.”
A larger, more impressive thought does
iiot enter the human mlml than this—the
care which the great God exercises every
jnomont over every creature of His hand.
Wherever men have thought of a per
sonal God this truth has come to mind.
[Indeed we believe in God only because
!We see evidences of a divine presence
and providence in the earth. The an
cient hymns of the Hindoos, relics of
an earlier and purer faith, abound in
ascriptions to the Giver of all. and Greek
art attained its highest expression in
Phidias' statue at Olympia of Jupiter,
Father over all.
■ This truth, then, is fundamental. If
Fou doubt the reality of Providence today
Fou are lingering in the vestibule of the
Semple. You cannot worship at the al
|ar. If you do not believe in Providence
6’ou cannot rejoice in grace,
i What an exquisite picture in our text
bf the abundance of the provision for all,
end the perfect ease—Thou openest
Thine hand—with which all the armies of
[living creatures are supplied. And so
there Is enough for all.
Hut. says one, there is not enough for
nil. What means the poverty on every
(hand, the squalor, the misery, the fam
ines sweeping thousands off the earth?
Now of this providence thus impeached
1 remark:
1. It is not irrespective of human in
dustry.
Every creature must gather according
j to its nature. For though a bird has but
; to fly to the spot and pick up the grain,
1 jind whilst with many creatures sport
End work go hand in hand, man must
dig and reap in order to have. He be
longs to a larger system. So long as the
woods are full of lumber for our houses
End the hills store their minerals and
jour fields respond to labor so long God’s
bounty cannot be questioned.
And this law is not a hindrance or
qualification of that bounty, for labor,
brings appetite, and appetite leads to
mew discoveries of plenty. With larger
desires come new drafts from nature's
ttore. The use of jewels came with man's
own development. An Indian today
(would rather have an eagle feather. Men
: waited long before they knew of the uses
iof some of our most familiar objects—
'coal, for instance. Doubtless the very
ground at our feet is full of rejected
treasures.
i -2. But this bounty is not irrespective
bf the claims of human brotherhood.
I God has given to us as members of a
1 race—a family. On every dollar's worth
bf treasure, on every acre of ground, God
reserves a lien for the benefit of His poor.
; If the penury and the suffering are
i6ue to the unequal or the ungenerous
distribution of God’s favor they cannot
be charged upon the giver or used as ar
gument against His providence.
There are men in this city denying this
doctrine who have in their own clinched,
list the refutation of their doubts. A
jnan who has cornered the coal or the
1 provisions of the poor does not believe
1 In Providence! I do not wonder. How
Ijcan he afford to believe In Providence un
!>11 he mends his ways? God does not
Intervene to keep you from taking your
neighbor's life; neither will He interpose
Sf you rob him of his little all. Never
theless, His word testifies against you.
End when all accounts are Settled it will
ptand against you.
i And this law of brotherhood is a bless
ing, too. It is the very law of wealth.
The family is the best economical ar
rangement ever devised. Seven people
cannot live so economically together in
any other way as In the family relation.
•And the principle operates at large. The

NflBERS.
Jews are a great family throughout the
world. They care for their poor; they
nurse their sick, and so they have fewer
poor and sick to care for.
This does not obliterate the law of
prosperity. The very Providence which
marks out the bounds of our habitation
begets thereby the sense and right of
property. We are not buffaloes wander
ing in herds, nor birds of a feather flock
ing together. Our wants differ, our
tastes, cur capacities.
3. This opens herein to the further
thought that God's bounty is not irre
spective of human character. There is
a divine government in the world as well
as a Providence—a providential govern
ment. A man who will not work, or who
spends his all in the vicious courses may
not come to me and say: ‘‘I’m hungry
and the world ow-es me a living. I must
live.” I might answer with Talleyrand,
“I don’t see that. For aught I know God
may intend you to starve. I must help
you personally so far, and I must give
with my neighbors in certain general
measures of relief, but beyond that I am
not called upon to go." My honestly got
ten property has paid its generous lien
toward the poor and the sick to divide
share and share alike with one who
might have had as well as I, and may
have had a tenfold better chance than t.
It cannot be denied that the worthiest
Iman may be reduced to poverty, but it is
also true that if there were no unworthy
poor it would bo a light task to help the
unfortunate poor. And who believes
that if the law of love obtained we could
ever have the distressing panics that
come upon us—often, too, with the land
glutted with food and treasure. Yet it
must be recognized that men by their
own sins largely cut themselves off from
the bounty of God and the help of their
fellows. And it is right that these dis
tinctions should obtaiifS It would be
strange if equal advantages were given
to the law-breaker and the law-keeper.
Such a Providence would beget improvi
dence. It would legalize the wrong. It
would put a premium on it.
I have thought it profitable today to
state sharply to ourselves these consider
ations which vindicate and illustrate the
providence of God. Yet how wonderfully
He cares for the mass of His creatures,
despite idleness and crime, despite self
ishness and waste. In I*t a small per
centage of American homes will there
not be a dinner today to regale the palate
of a king, and that whether a word of
Thanksgiving be spoken or not. And so
at last God's providence is a wonderful
exposition of His grace.
Ana now we nave iner to give expres
sion to our gratitude. How blessed are
we, my friends, to live in a lend where
It is now good form for the chief mag
istrate of the nation and state to call
the people together for praise. It would
be "bad politics" to omit this. The cus
tom. however formally kept up by our
magistrates, is a marvelous proof that
ours is a Christian nation and that the
mass of our people desire to see God
recognized as the giver of all good. Let
us then not be like the rich fool described
by our Savior. He stood and looked upon
the amazing yield of his fields until his
eyes (Plated in wonder and he exclaimed,
“Whaf shall I do? Where shall I bestow
all my fruits and all my goods?" God
had emptied the cornucopia of the year
upon him and he cries out with aston
ishment, where are barns for this? "Ah!"
says St. Ambrose, “man, thou hast barns
—the mouths of the orphans, the houses
of the widow.”
All about us are Christ's poor. Let us
seek them out. But the thought of the
day is chiefly thanksgiving. We are to
be “rich toward God.” And so I ought
to name a fourth law and say: Fourth.
That God's bounty will be great or small
to us very much according to our own
disposition.
Industry must seek out God’s plenty,
brotherhood distribute it abroad, the
law of character should rightly appor
tion it, but the disposition of the.«nan at
last must enjoy it. There is many a
millionaire whose desires can never be
satisfied, and then there is many an hum
ble Christian who is as happy and feels
as rich as a king. So with all God’s dis
pensations. Jacob said, "All these things
are against me;” but Paul said, “All
things work together for good for me.”
It is the difference between Jacob and
Paul.
A thankful temper, my brethren, is the
best sauce with which to eat our turkey
today; a generous spirit is the best sea
soning for it all.
At Temple Emanuel.
The Thanksgiving services at Temple
Emanuel last night were unusually in
teresting and were witnessed by a large
congregation. The choir and orchestra
rendered splendid music, and the ad
dress delivered by Dr. O. P. Fitzsimons

School Children in Atlanta.
The public schools had a holiday yes
terday and about 200 of the pupils spent
the day In Atlanta seeing the exposition.
They went over to Atlanta the day before
In company with several of the teachers
and will return tomorrow night.
They Rejoiced.
Several hundred Birmingham people
were in Atlanta yesterday to see the ex
position and the football game between
the Auburn and the University of Ala
bama teams. They went over to pull for
the Alabama boys, and their Joy at the
victory of their favorites was of the en
thusiastic variety. Several of them had
money up on the Auburns, and it goes
without saying they were happy.
Several of the Birmingham contingent
returned last night, and others will be
in today.
A Generous Act.
Few people fully understand or appre
ciate the loss to a live retail business
house sustained by a holiday. That is
to say, the direct loss In the way of ces
sation of sales. Yet these holidays seem
necessary and altogether proper, for
they afford recreation for the employes,

MR. MYERSNOWAREPORTER
He Introduced an Innovation in Dress That
Didn’t Take Well in Birming
ham.
Mr. Demetrius F. Myers, who was erst
while such a prominent factor in Bir
mingham’s social and professional life,
is now a reporter on a New York paper.
While a citizen of Birmingham Mr. My
ers wrote one article for the press, sat
irizing the fake ‘‘charity ball,” that
marked him as a genius in humorous
writing. Mr. Myers will also be remem
bered as having introduced the Innova
tion of baby blue breeches with evening
dress. This custom disappeared with
Mr. Myers. The custom was so gauche
that even the uncultivated social maw
of Birmingham at that time could not
swallow it. The custom was an offense
against good taste and bordered on im
morality in its violation of the canons of
propriety. It found no justification in
nature. The nearest approach found in
nature to the appearance presented by a
man in the blue legs and black body is
the stork. The legs of the stork assume
a blue color from standing too long in
water. The only similitude is found In
the supposition that a man wearing baby
blue breeches is in the swim. Even the
recognized social popularity Mr. My
ers could not make baby blue breeches
popular in Birmingham, but perhaps the
field of his endeavor was too restricted
and he will meet with better success in
the larger field offered by the metropolis.

"RAILROAD BILL”
The Negro Desperado Seen in New Orleans.
Supposed to Be Looking for Rail
road Work.
New Orleans Picayune, 25th.
Railroad Bill, the negro desperado from
Alabama, is in New Orleans. He was
seen Saturday evening near the Louis
ville and Nashville freight depot, on the
levee, at the head of Girod street, by
William Johnson, a man who knew him
personally and is sure of his Identity.
Railroad Bill, whose real name is Mor
ris Slater, is wanted in Alabama on a
number of charges for robbing and mur
der. He is a most desperate character,
having committed several atrocious
crimes. He has been captured a num
ber of times, but has always succeeded
in making his escape. A reward of $3jt)
is offered by the Louisville and Nashville
railroad for his arrest, $300 by the citi
zens of Brewton, Ala., $250 by the county
of Escambia and $150 by the governor of
Alabama, making a total of $10o0, which
will be paid to the party who succeeds in
capturing him.
Railroad Bill has been at large sev
eral months, and heretofore his where
abouts have been unknown. From time
to time vague rumors have been circulat
ed to the effect that lie had been in first
one part of the country and then another,
but nothing definite was known of his
movements. He is known throughout
the southern country as one of the most
desperate of men. His name has been
familiar in portions of Louisiana, Mis
sissippi, Alabama, Georgia and klortaa,
where he is much feared. For months he
terrorized that section of Alabama along
the route of the Louisville and Nashville
railroad between Mobile and_
erv where he committed the boldest and
most daring of his crimes. The }w0 ®e"
rlous charges against him are for the
murder of K. s. Mc;vmutu, ou«.u —•—
cambia county, and J. H. Stewart, a
brakeman of the Louisville and Nashville
railroad. The killing of the latter was
at Bay Minette, Ala., where a posse, of
which Stewart was a member, attempted
to capture the desperado After killing
Stewart he escaped to Mount Vernon,
where he succeeded in eluding the poasc.
who supposed him to be in hiding in a
building, which they perforated with bul
let holes, only to learn that the desperado
hiBothCtof these murders he committed
several months back, and at the time in
tense excitement prevailed in the vicinity
of each. He is described as being a thick
set burly negro, with thick lips, a scar on
his left cheek from his nose to the left
ear. The thumb on one hand is missing.
He generally dressed in overalls and
black slouch hat, and is always well
armed. Railroad Bill was seen Saturday
evening by another negro, W. M. John
son. a resident of Mobile, who is now In
this city in the employ of the Louisville
and Nashville r&ilroa<b Joh"sa" ,“ys
that he positively saw Railroad Bill Sat
urday evening in conversation with an
other negro near the Louisville and
Nashville freight depot. He was sure
that It was the desperado, as he knew
him, having worked here with him three
years ago, and jins seen him several
times since. The last time he saw him
was about a month ago, and in the course
of conversation Railroad Bill said that
he Intended surrendering, as he knew
he could prove his Innocence of the
charges against him. When Johnson
saw him Saturday he at once thought
that he had come to New Orleans to glvo
himself up. However, he did not make
himself known to the desperado, as he
did not wish him to know that he, too,
was in New Orleans.
The man whom Railroad Bill was in
conversation with says he asked him how
the railroad was paying theip hands,
and whether jobs were easy to get with
the railroad. After asking the questions
he walked off. Johnson says he would
have followed him had he not been at
work. It is supposed that he came here
In hopes of securing work with the New
Orleans and Western railroad aJ Port
Chalmette, where several hundred ne
groes are now employed.
Superintendent uaster, wnen nuinreu
of the desperado's presence In the city,
said that he had received a telegram sev
eral months ago to arrest him on Right,
but had not heard anything of his where
abouts up to about three weeks ago, at
which time he received information to
the effect that a negro answering to his
description had been seen in the city, but
upon Investigation he could not be lo
cated. He will, however, detail detectives
today to investigate the matter at once.
The detectives, it is supposed, will not be
slow in the undertaking, as the reward
of $1050 will be a snug little sum to receive
for the work. If accomplished. Johnson,
the negro who Identified the desperado,
Is also trying to locate him, and If he does
and the man is captured Chief Gaster has
promised him half of the reward.
In Good keeping

Pimlico Results.
Baltimore, Nov. 28.—There was a large
holiday attendance and good racing at
Pimlico today. The backers of favorites
had a sad time of it, however. Not until
the last race did a favorite catch the
judge's eye first, and then the decision
was hissed by a great number. Eclipse
was the odds-on-favontte for the con
cluding event and had the race won in
the stretch. As Simms pulled the fa
vorite up nearing the wire Maher on
Phoebus came with a rush, and to many
it appeared that Phoebus won by a neck.
The judge's decision saved Mike Dwyer
many thousands, which he had bet on
Eclipse.
The longest shot of the day was James
McLaughlin’s Premier. He had but six
ty-seven pounds up and beat Levina Ina
and others. The favorites were bowled
over by second and third choices. Long
bridge finished first in the second race,

Bland.who was to have opened his south
ern tour here tonight with his lecture on
“The Single Gold Standard a Disastrous
Failure—The Future of America Is for
Bimetallism," did not lecture, because
there was nobody to hear him. The ex
congressman’s coming had been exten
sively advertised, but not a ticket was
sold, and the theater where he was to
speak was not opened. He was rather
surprised at the lack of Interest here In
this lecture. He says he will lecture In
the south until Christmas. — y
