The Mcchanicsburg Journal flies exceptions to the character of entertainments recently given them by traveling companies. It criticises them most severely. In two years a boy can learn as much Latin as he can forget in six months after he goes to work for a living.

A. Kopperuagei't) CUorcli on wal nut Street A I'raotical rator rruiu Carving and Gilding by His Own Hand A Remarkable Group. The German Catholic Church on Wal nut street, this citv. will stand as a mem orial of the earnest piety and great tenacity of purpose of its pastor, Rev. C.

A. Koppernagel. He began its erection in 1874, and kis parish not being very rich in this world goods, ne uerame as he expresses it, architect, foreman, and workman, to a very great extent. We do not mean to say that laid the walls and put the plaster; but he did naucli of the carpenter work, and about all of the carving and light car pentry, in which he is still engaged, and will be as he estimates until next Easter, at which time he expects the work to be completed. The ornamentation of the church will be very proiuse ana mostly the work of his own hands.

Along each side wall are scenes carved from the story of the crucifixion. On either side of the sanctuary are the side altars, to the rieht as vou enter. St. Joseph, attended by an angel. Here are life size, and are cxauisite ideals.

on either side the figures the features On the left is the virgin with the Christ child on her arm, also attended by an angel on either side. The scroll ana carvea woris. aim gilding on these altars are the work of the reverend gentleman himself, and very profuse. The sanctuary is about 24 feet feet wide, and at the right front facing the altar, the chancel or pulpit, which is built of elaborately carved and gilded woods, and stands to the top of the cross over the canopy, about sixteen feet high, and is so arranged that when not in use it can be pushed back by one hand out of the way, and in the same way brought forwasd for use. The floor of the sanctuary is covered with a rich carpet, and at the back rises the great altar, with the tabernacle in the center.

The altar is about eighteen feet long, and to the top of the spire of the tabernacle in the center rises forty feet. The tabernacle proper is a beauti fullv designed case, imitating a church, which Mr. Kormernaeel made himself out of a heavy solid mahogany door, eiven to him about twelve years aeo by Dr. O'Connor. It stands in an alcove of the center tower, which rises forty feet, as mentioned above.

In the alcove, above the tabernacle proper, are nine figures, representing the nine angelic choirs of Revelations. On cither side of the tabernacle are three alcoves, in which are to be placed the figures (life size) of six of the saints. Above these alcoves are the spires, six in number, be side that of the sanctuary, all of which are elaborately carved and eildcd by Mr. Koppernagel himself. When completed the effect will be verv imnosine.

and a noble memorial for the pastor to leave of his life work. There is one group the reporter would uireci tne auenuon oi visitors iu, especially. It placed in the corner to right corner of the entiauce. ine ngures are life size and represent the sorrow ing mother receiving in her arms the body of the Christ when he is taken down from the cross. The group was produced in Munich and is not only highly artistic in the proportions of the figures, but eloquent of the story of the man oi wno ooie upon his shoulders the burden of all human iniquity, in the expression of the dead face, and of the mother's syin pathy with his mission, and sorrow over His sufferings, depicted so viviuly as shown in the pale, beautiful face bent over the corpse and the grief reddened eves.

He is made of stern stuff and hardened indeed, who can look upon it, and think of the story it commemorates, without, emotion. The service known as "The Forty Hours Devotion," began yesterday morning at 6 o'clock, continuing until 0 in the evening, and at the same hours Monday and Tuesday. MMU. SNODGRASS NAILS A LIE. A Campaign Story Exploded Before it Started on Ita Travels.

Chairman Brennan, of the Allegheny county Democratic committee, on Saturday night, in an interview, asserted that when Controller Snodgrass, of Pittsburg, went out of office his books, which were kept by Mr. Livsey, were off balance 218,000, and that a committee of councils was appointed to examine them, which has never yet reported. A Telegraph reporter met Mr. Snodgrass ut the Lochiel Hotel last evening (he 'is at present a member of the Legislature) and asked him regarding the truth of Brennan's assertion. J'There is not a word of truth in it," said Mr.

Snodgrass, warmly. "When I left office the books were turned over to my successor balanced to a cent; and there was no such question ever raised as indicated by Brennan. The charge is unqualifiedly false in every and no such a committee was ever appointed. Mr. Livsey's qualifications are beyond question he is hon est, capable and intelligent, and all over Allegheny county was known as "Old Reliability." I do not believe that Mr.

Brennan ever made the statement imputed to him. Knowing, as he docs, the reputation of Mr. Livsey in Allegheny county, he would not dare to make such an assertion about him. AMPgEMEH LOCALS. Rice Surprise Tarty.

U. CHURCH. A New Organ to be 1' laced in the Kdillce. Grace M. E.

church, which has one of the finest choirs in the city, will in the next few months be supplied with a mag nificant new organ, the gift of the family of the late Wm. Colder, and designed to mcmoralize Mr. Colder. The organ, has already been ordered from Johnston, the builder, at Wcstfield, and will cost when put up $5,000. The 15th of February has been set as the time for its dedication, and it is understood that everything will be in position oy that time, it is fitting that this splendid organ should memorilize Mr.

shall he live again?" and Psalm 118, verse 17: "I shall not die, but live." No fear is more general than that of death. It would sadden any of you to know that death would meet you within an hour. trust I am addressing thinking men, not indifferent and careless about existence, not living without some plan or purpose more than straws floating with the stream, more than mere moral ciphers, and being so you look out beyond the present and arc interested in what is to follow. The first thing which faces you is the problem ot death. False ideas of what it is makes hosts ot men in tins city indifferent to the claims of Christ.

Not a few believe death to be annihi lation. They stop the work ot man with the last beat of his heart. They bound existence by the cradle and the grave, ifan is simply drifting to oblivion. Even nature suggests mat man is im mortal. The expectation of something beyond is a common one.

The soul's immortality its longings, its capaDinties, its capacities, tell of infinite possibilities of development. Christianity says man is immortal. It comes with no guesses or probabili ties, but facts and living proofs. Outside of Christ you have nothing concerning immortality, but hints and suggestions. Christ is risen from the dead and we know that death does not end all.

"Yes, answer, "but I do not believe in your Chriet. Then 1 shift my position against you, and claim that without God in the werld. and with no nope beyona tne Brave, life is not worth the living. i If annihilation be true, the best thing of all is never to have been boin, or having been born to die as soon as possible. Another false idea ot death, bestows on it a certain moral power, a regenerating influence, as if in passing from this world to the next death prepared a man for the transition.

The answer to this is, that death deals only with the physical. It does not affect moral quality; it does not change character. But it does something else, it brings condition and character into accord. Use of the parable ol the rich man and Lazarus was made to sub stantiate these positions. A third false idea of death, makes it the door opening to future repentance.

How many hundreds of men in this city arc hanging their hopes on this, no one can ever approximately estimate. The Bible encourages nothing of the kind. Heaven and hell are separated permanently. The gulf is Men who have made a choice for the next world have a right to remain where they want to be, and they do remain there. The place a man closes he must take just as he finds it.

As one has well said, "The river of life does not run on the hell ward side of the great gulf." i The solemnity of the present hour i that upon it hang the issues of an endless eternity. Work which ought to nave been done, ten, twenty, thirty, fifty years ago is still unperformed. In character everything tends to a final permanence, so that the probabilities of your ever do ing this work are proportionately lea sened. Evil men wax worse and worse Bad principles and sinful practices strengthen with time, borne ot you are looking forward to a distant time when it will be far easier than it is now to turn from your sins. This is the last false idea ot death, which I shall not have time to present to night, that the hour of death is the hour for repentance.

Joab thought so too, and came to old age with unchanged charac ter. After an unsuccessful battle he con cealed himself for protection in the Taber nacle of the Lord, and caughthold on the horns of the altar. He cried tor mercy. and vet he died without mercy and without hope. Numbers of men to day think to compensate for a life of sin bvan ineffectual attempt to return to God in the hour of death.

They are deceiving themselves with that which will be their ruin. Such an act is entirely wanting in the proper motive ot obedience, it is itself an act of rebellion', and its success would overturn all the purposes of God. "If a man die shall he live again 7 "I shall not die, but live." You fling away all your false ideas of death and ask me how shall 1 live. I hold up Christ. He is the only and all sufficient Savior of such as we are.

Though you be riddled with sin you can yet be saved. His love and faith are the grandest adornments any man can have. Catching the cry of the Bpirit, ana the lindc. too say "come. Come to the life giver.

It Was Lifted, The other day a newspaper; man had occasion to take a trip from Harrisburg to Altoona, and i he the le gislative pass of a member of the House, the good natured legislator kindly loaning it. The trip to Altoona was all right, but coming down the conductor, a faithful official, recognized the party presenting the pass as to tally different in name from that on the pass, and he nromntlv lifted the naste board and made the newspaper man hand over full fare. It was awful rough, but in order "to take a seat in the car, the money was paid over. NEW MARKET HOUSES. The Lowest litd to Be Returned for Correction.

It is reliably stated that at the meeting of Councils to night the bid of Hoover, Hughes who put in the lowest figures for the construction of the new market houses, will be returned to the Market Committee for correction. The firm wants $2 25 per perch for every perch of stone foundation beyond six feet, and there arc fears that in digging they may strike quicksand, which would necessitate a much deeper foundation. Clute's Union Cab Line. II. A.

Clute has just established and had started this morning a new cab line, which will be known as the "Union cab line." The cabs are similar to the Hansom cabs used in the larger cities, except that the driver is perched on a seat in front. They aro intended for four per sons and are neatly constructed. Tne fare will be regulated by the distance, but will be very reasonable in all cases. This line will doubtless be well patronized as Harrisburg has long needed something of the kind. Mr.

Clute's enterprise will no doubt be appreciated and encouraged. Cigar Factory Robbea. The cigar factory of II. C. Kauflman, in Manchester borough, York county, was broken into Friday night and robbed of 3,600 cigars packed in half hundred boxes.

The cigars had been already stamped preparatory to filling an order, but the stamps had not yet been can celled. Several coats belonging to the hands employed in the factory were also taken. There is no clue to the perpetrators of the robbery. A Concert in Prospective.

Some residents in the vicinity of State and Cowden Btreets were inclined to censure Officer Plctz, on Saturday night, for striking the fire alarm at box five, when it was discovered that the alarm was false.

IJoher, Jones House Drue Store. 205 Marlmt. street, Harrisburg, fa. PAXTON CRKKK. Interesting Correspondence from Mayor Wilson on tne suujevc ui uunnicuDua.

The flooding of the low land along Paxton creek in the First ward has given rise to various alarms among the people of that vicinity, inasmuch as it has been found almost impossible to drain them. Recently the highway and sanitary committees, aided by Mayor Wilson, set about an investigation, which led to a correspondence, extracts from which will be explanatory. On.the 20th instant Mayor Wilson addressed a letter to J. Loomis, real estate agent ot the Phil adelphia and Reading railroad company, in wnicn no sam: The city of Harrisburg engaged in the operation of straightening Paxton creek through the limits of the city, at a very considerable expense, making an excavation of 18 feet in width at the bot tom of the creek. This straightened water course drained a large district, which has within the last few years been again flooded by reason of the construc tion ot the bteelton branch railroad ot your company.

In the construction of this work near the Paxton furnace the Reading company made a ditch of about twelve feet in width, into which they di rected the waters of the creek, making use of the eld bed of the stream for the use of the road. This ditch is of insuffi cient width to carry off the water promptly, and has raised the level of the stream so that, in connection with other obstructions placed in the stream by other arties, it will no longer drain the low and along its course, which it was in tended to do. I write you to request the immediate enlargement oi the wore constructed by your company, so that it will conform in width, depth and construction with that part constructed by the city. Mayor Wilson also addressed a letter to Col. Henry M.Cormick, as follows: I have to request the immediate re moval of the obstructions placed in Pax ton creek on the line of the Cormick estate below the aqueduct.

These obstructions consist of a dam thrown across the stream just below the aqueduct, and the cinder thrown into the stream from the works. These obstructions have raised the water level to such an extent as to prevent the drainage of the low lands bounding the creek." Mayor Wilson also addressed a letter to Joseph H. Landis, manager of the Lochiel iron company, calling attention to the fact that the iron company had placed in the bed of Paxton creek between the railroad culvert and the mouth of the creek "no less than four dams, made by throwing cinder in the stream, evidently for the purpose of raising the level of the water," and request ing immediate removal of the obstructions. Several days ago a party consisting of Mayer Wilson, Col. M'Cormick, John Q.

Denny, J. C. Patterson, representing the Reading road; Chairman M'Cleaster, of the Highway Committee; Chairman Fritchey, of the Sanitary Committee, and Assistant City Surveyor Reel, went over the ground indicated in the Mayor's letter and found the matter as indicated. The Reading road is now considering the matter, and until they make known their intentions nothing will oe done, i It is certain however, that the bed of the creek will be restored for proper drainage. Senator Herr on Apportionment.

The speech of Senator Herr, delivered in the State Senate on Friday last, on the questions of apportionment and mandamus, in reply to Senators Laird and Gordon, was the ablest argument made upon the subject during the general and special ti His impromptu remonstrance against the positions assumed by Senators Laird and Gordon was replete with convincing premises Jleading to logical conclusions, expressed in plain and scholarly language, free from all partisan bias and animosity and proved Senator Herr to. be an able lawyer and statesman, whose genius and intellect do great honor to his district and the State.

John Riling, to the Kittanning insurance company of Pennsylvania. Mr. L. R. Poffenberger, who is agent for the Kittanning insurance company at Harrisburg, office 321 Market street, second floor, called on Mr.

Kiling, who admitted the necessity of having fire insurance placed, the only excuse being that he would not be ready till near fall, having some obligations to meet which would consume all his funds at By convincing Mr. Riling of the necessity of placing his insurance now and not waiting till next fall, also time to meet his premium, Ir. Poffenberger, after about two hours' conversation, succeeded in getting Mr. Riling's consent to have him place his insurance in Kittanning insurance, company. Mr.

Riling had only been insured thirty five days before he met with a loss by fire and had not even paid anything on his premium when the fire occurred. It was certainly a streak of good fortune for Mr. Riling. Altoona, Oct. 18, 1883.
