REV. E. il. UPDIKE Preaches His Initial Sermon at the Sum- merfield Church, Milwaukee. Rev.

Mr. Faville Preaches Hia Opening- Sermon at the M. Church. In speaking of the initial sermon preached by Rev. E.

U. Updike, at Milwaukee, the entintl sava When the Rev. Oliu Curtis was preparing for the miuisiry, the Rev. U. Up-dike was his classmate.

Yesterday the latter assumed the pastorate of Huiumerfield M. 1-1 church, which Mr. Curtis vacated a week ago lie preached his initial sermon in the morning to a congregation that packed the church. Mr- Updike created a lavorable impression. In appearance he greatly resembles the Rev.

A.J. Benjamin, ot the Asbury M. E. church. As a speaker be is very entertaining.

He makes lew gestures and speaks to his audience in that easy, conversational manner that creates an lmpresiiou that he is addressing each individual in the church personally, lie uses no mauuscript, but speaks fluently aud sometimes rapidly, though always distinctly. Mr. Updike was preceded to Milwau kee with a reputation tor oratory, liis predecessor, Mr. Curtis, said ot him that he kuew of no one whose delivery, when on the ro-trum, was so strikingly like that of Wendell Phillips. Last evening, Mr.

Updike chose his text from the Second Corinthians. He spoke of the comfort one might obtain by belief in God and his promiaeand the duty of men to comfort and cheer tbeir lellow men. There wan a vast difference between sorrow and trouble, he said. There was no need for men to have trouble," lor that could come only from disbelief in God. Property or physical afflictions did not constitute trouble.if men only believed.

"If a mat has no faith in God or a (uture existence," said Mr. Updike, "I don't see how he is pre pared to meet the ad versities of life. It will make either a stoic or a cynic of him." The speaker drew a parallel to illustrate the purifying influences ot Hlllictions visited by God upon men. Chemists say there is no difference in the substances that compose a piece of charcoal and a diamond -Yet when yon place the bit of charcoal in the raysot the sun it dead and gives no reflection; let the' sunlight tall upon the diamond and it sparkles and scintillates at every angle. Scientists Bay that tbe diamonds are but charcoal that ages ago were subjected to great volcanic heat and pressure, God often purifies ns of our dross by subjecting us to volcanic beat, not only that we may become better hut that we may transmit tbe feeling to others and cheer and comfort them.

Mr. Updike touched upon the theme of man's mutual dependence and the need of people being less iodiflerent to the welfare of each other. Men looked upon a funeral prooesaion with more indifference than upon a picnic procession. What we need to-day, he said, is not so much brain pow-ea as heart power. An llonrot Man.

Christ. Blom, a trunk makr for M. M. Secor, who boards at Peter Yokum's, cn State street, is a hard working and honest man in fact, he is honest clear through. Early this morning, at the fire on St.

Clair street, a gentleman 1- st a roll of money containing Mr. Blum picked it up Instead of pocketing it and saying nothing aSout it, as some would have done, he snowed his honesty by handing it to Mr. Scbnltz, who soon discovered it was not his money and intended to advertise it. Shortly after, the owner put in an appearance, proved property and received the money. Mr.

Blum received $10 reward. Here is a mm whom any person in the world can trust, and he deserves every at c-ces. Kacine Clab. The attendance last Tuesday evening was very large, numbering 83 voices. New members wil still be received, and lor tbe purpose Mr.

Henry Hagerman, the seventeen year old boy who confessed to having broken into David Wiltaey's residence, in Mt. Pleasant, with Joseph Fox, and stolen $131, and who bound over to tbe Circuit Court for triaLwa was arraigned before Jndge Winslow late Saturday afternoon. He pleaded guilty and was sentenced to one year in the State prison at Wanpnn. Sheriff Donald left for Wanpnn with him this afternoon. Joseph Fox, implicated in the robbery with Hagerman, was arrested on complaint of Mr.

Wiltaey and it is believed that' he will also plead gnilty and receive his sentence. The parents of both boys are respectable and very mnch broken np oyei the affair. The nethodiat Fa tor. Tbe Eev. Henry Faville, the newly appointed pastor of the First M.

E. chnrch, presided at the official Board meeting at the chnrch parlots on Saturday evening and an hour was spent very pleasantly in business and social conversation. He was afterward presented to each individual member of chnrch chorus choir by the lead er, Mr. wm. Lunn.

Mr. Lnnn and Mr. Faville are old friends, having been in college together at Lawrence University at Appleton. On Snnday, both morning and evening. the congregations were unusually large, and from expressions we have heaid from those present, there ia no donbt but that the prosperity which has marked the his tory of the chnrch during tbe "past three years will be continued.

Rev. Mr. Fayille is of rather spare bnild, a little above medium height, hia hair falls over quite a high forehead, his eyes are fnlL and deep lines indicative of mnch thought mark his face, which lights, np when he smiles, very handsomely. He is evidently a strong thinker; is perfectly at ease in the pulpit as well as elsewhere. He impresses one with the idea that be has come to Racine with a single purpose to preach the gospel, and to be the pastor of his people.

He will reside at the parsonage, 504 Park av enue. The Journal takes pleasure in wel coming him to the beautiful city of Ra cine, and assures him that he will find it a handsomer and better city to live in than Oshkosh (which he haa just left) dare to be. Besides that, it is a more hopeful place for a minister to work in. covrt axu Justice Heyer had a military wedding Saturday night.

A. 11., 1 Madisow, Sept. 20, Circular No. 1. The following ha9 been published through tbe medium ot the Associated Press: Charleston, Sept.

14, 1880. CumrauVs 0 the Grand Army of the Republic With you I have been profoundly touched by tbe great calamity to Charleston and vicinity, caused by the recent earthquake. I came here as your representative to learn the exact facts as to the necessities of the people and to take such action as the occasion might requiie. The situation is briefly this: The immediate demand for food is promptly answered by funds already contributed; but there is a class of citizens, whose houses are more or less shattered, who have no means with which to repair them. This class, and those who, being houseless, have suffered loss of personal property, require aid from abroad.

It will bo to them a continued calamity unless help is rendered. The community here have done and are doing everything in their power. A large sum of money is required to do al that ought to be done. This condition of a flairs warrants immediate and extraordinary effort. I feel confident that every comrade is anxious to do what he can to bring comfort and happiness to this stricken people- I therefore request Department Commanders to call pon each Post in their Departments at once to appoint a committee which shall collect such sums as comrades and tbeir lellow citizens, iu cities, villages, and on tbe farms, may desire to contribute.

The money should be transmitted to Department Headquarters, whence it will bs sent to W. A. Courtenay, Mayor ef Charleston. A committee, consisting of the best citizens of Charleston, will see to it that the money is properly applied to the relief only of the worthy and necessitous. LrjclU9 Fairchij.d, Commander-in-Chief G.

A. R. Gov. Hrvey Post has already forwarded its contribution to Charleston and has made arrangements with the officers of the local banks to receive and properly account for further contributions by citizens. The distress which calls for aid is real and pressing, and the appeal from Gen.

Fair-child onght not to go unanswered by tbe citizens of Racine. Boom for I nion rove. Mr. Joseph Kay, a well known resident add mechanic of Racine for many years, has purchased an interest in a grist mill at Union Grove, in company with John Green. The gentlemen will fit np the mill and conduct the business on a broad plan hereafter.

This will give Union Grove quite a business boom, and the residents are delighted. ACCIUHXTS. Fred Pogle, an employe at Secor's trnnk sctory, had one of his fingers taken off by a buzz saw on Saturday. Dr. A.

SchQiza't Bakery Damaged This Morning by Fire. Early Lars Larson's Barn Burn i Consumed. -HayStacks About 3 o'clock this morning fire broke out in the rjrar of building No, 912 St. Clair street, pwsed by George Bucher and occupied by Otto B. Schultr.e, known as the Vienna bakery and confectionery.

Con siderable difficulty was experienced in finding a key and hence some delay ensued in sounding an alarm. Nos. 2, 3 and 4 and the eheruical promptly responded. Although No. 3 got the first water on the fire all did splendid work in squelching the blase and preventing it from spreading to the front part of the bnilding and also to adjoining property.

The fire undoubtedly caught from the ovens in the bake-shop as Mr Schulre was np and had bnilt a fire in the ovens only a few minutes before. He estimates his loss at $350, with $200 insurance. Oa the building the loss is $225 and insured. -People residing in houses adjoining were very mnch fright ened especially one family, Hungarian Jews, who moved out their household goods and made such a noise that tbey awakened people for three blocks away. BABX BUKXED.

A barn at No. 1201 May street, owned by Lars Larson, was partially destroyed by fire at 9 o'clock Sunday night, together with chickens and hay. How the fire or iginated is unknown. The loss, some $40 or $50, is covered by insurance. The fire department dtd some good work in pre venting the fie from spreading.

A wom an in the house adjoining, who bad given birth to a child a few hours before, became frightened, grasped her child, jump ed from the bed and ran out of doors. It is feared that ihe shock may result in her death. I HAY STACKS. Several stacks of hay, southwest of the city, burned at 8 o'clock last, night, illum inating the heavens brilliantly.
