YALE MOURN Union Meeting of All the Churches as a Mark . of Respect for Our Late President. Sabbath morning, after the sad news of our beloved President's death had reached Yale, all the churches were draped in black, the symbol of mourning and in this case the mourning of a whole nation over the sudden and uncall ed for death of a great man, our country's chief. From each pulpit words were spoken which conveyed to the peo ple the loss which has been sustained in the taking away of this grand man. Rev. Ellis, of the Tresbyterian church, took his subject from Moses' farewell address to the children of Israel. "lie is thy life and the length of thy days." Deut. 30-20. Presi dent McKinley had won the affections and admiration of the whole world. His own people trusted him. During the troublous times through which our country has passed since he has been our leader, he has ruled so wisely that we have learned to have confidence in hi3 leadership. And now as his life goes out at the hand of a cruel assassin, we are dazed and bewildered. In this overwhelming sorrow to our nation where can we turn our thoughts but to Cod. This world i3 full of change and disappointment -God alone is abiding. As long as God is the life of a nation He will overrule events so that nation will prosper In llev. Beatty's sermon he remarked: "The cloud is dark that hangs over our nation; so dark that it seems im penetrable, yet God lives. Was there a Waterloo to be fought? God provided a Wellington. Was there a nation to be formed in this western world which was to teach all nations the dignity and equality of mankind? God provid ed a Washington. Were there three million slaves to be emancipated ? Lincoln came forward. So in this sad crisis God lives and will make provision for the advancement of one of the best governments under heaven. In the memorial address delivered by llev. Durr, he mentioned five lessons to be learned from this overwhelm ingly sad event: 1st. God overrules evil for good. The most wonderful illustration of this to be found is the killing of Christ the Xazarene God overruled it for good. 2nd. That "all things work together for good to them that love God." This is best demonstrated by our President's last words "It is God's way; His will be done." "God's way" is always the best way the way of wisdom. 3rd. Prayer must always be qualified and limited, with reference to the Divine Will. Never before did there rise up from this earth so many petititions to God, for the life of one man, yet he died. It was God's will. We must qualify our prayers with "Thy will be done." 4th. A reconciliation of jarring elements. When the sad news of the President's death was announced, the pulse-beat of the whole world changed. All factions and parties and creeds and denominations forgot all differences and moved toward one great center of brotherly sympathy. 5th. "God reigns, and the government at Washington still lives." (Garfield.) And He shall reign, till all enemies are put under His feet." We would have been pleased to have given our readers extracts from the sermons of the other pulpits of the village on Sunday morning, but circumstances seemed to make it impossible for us to get them. . As a fitting and proper observance of mourning for the death of our beloved president, a union meeting of all the churches of the village had been arranged for Sunday even ing last by the different pastors and an immense audience gathered in the M. E. church. Upon the platform were Revs. Durr, Ellis, Cullinane, Ueatly, Brown, Jelly, and Prof. Robinson, and each one was listened to with the greatest attention and interest as they spoke of the greatness, the goodness, the influence and Christianity of the third assas sinated president of these United States. Tears were in many eyes as the meeting was brought to a close by the singing of that hymn "Nearer My God To Thee", the words which were uttered with almost our chief's last breath. On Thursday, the day on which the body of Mr. Mc Kinley was laid in its last resting place at Canton, Ohio, a memorial service was held in Michaels hall at 10:30 a. m. by Rev. Fr. Cullinane. The hall was well filled, the high school being dismissed for the purpose of attending the service. Father Cullinane spoke in a manner which brought the truth strongly before his hearers. In a forceful, logical way he discussed the evil influences of anarchy. He expressed his opinion that anarchy was in the hearts of people who would bring severe punishment, slow torture or lynching upon the assassin. Anarchy was in the hearts and minds of these children who burn and lynch in effigy the assassin and Emma Goldman. Teach the young better and nobler thoughts. Love your neighbor as yourself. The sermon upon the mount was read. The business places were closed during the afternoon service and a procession was formed at the corner of North and Main streets at 2 o'clock and headed by the Band, the clergy, village president, business men and citizens general ly following, marched to the M.E. church. At 1:15 p.m. exercises were held In the High school room and also in Miss McKenzie's department. The pro gram in the high room was as follows: Quotations from Lincoln, Garfield, and McKinley. Biography of Lincoln, May Iloskin. Biography of Garfield, Carl Palmer. The Governor's Proclamation Claude Nims. McKinley as a Statesman, Arthur Carson. McKinley '8 Domestic Life, Grace Newell. Poem, Lulu McMahon. Extracts from McKlnley's last Speech, Florence Moore. The pupils adjourned to the M.E. church where a tender and loving address was given by Rev. Beatty from Job 14 :14 "If a man die shall he live again?" The question was an swered in the affirmative, and trie sermon left a deep im pression on the large audience that had gathered together for the third time to do honor to the dead president. His influence will ever live. n i i A WORD OR TWO IN ADVANCE ABOUT OUR FALL BUSINESS. We're planning now for the largest fall trade this store has ever experienced.
