MONDAY AFTERNOON, AUGUST 7, 1893. Price Two Cents. A NMEAK THIEF NIPPED. DAMAGED BY ELECT It I CITY. Spraylets.

SABBATH IN THE GROVE Story of the Register. MONKOR NO MONK? Ex-Cincreinan Honwell U. Horr of JHIfBljra la the Auditorium and Take liaaea with Darwin on If la Eo-lallou Theory. "Black Pttl" wu tbe attraction at the morning aervica at the Asbury Park Audi-tori am yesterday, Every seat was occupied, while hundreds were enable to get inside the vast structure. The wonderful African never sang better or with more effect, while Mrs.

Douglas Phillips of St. Louis filled the entire structure with tbe clear tones of her rich soprano voice. Tbe Park sisters were also present, and besides accompanying the piano in tbe song service, tbe trio gave some very pretty selections on their cornets. Pastor 8. Young preached a most intereeting and inHtrnclive sermon, full of Christian troths and admonition to tbe attentive audience, tuking his text from Genesis liili: 30-31.

His subject was "Inspired." Tbe afternoon service opened with an invocation by tbe Rev. Dr. Ritchie of Port-cbeeter, N. and Dr. Crawford followed with a Scripture reading.

The Rev. Mr. Young then read to tbe audience a communication from ex-President Benjamin Harrison, expressing bis sincere regret At not being able to speak at tbe Auditorium this season, and tbe sentiments contained iu this brief epistle called forth a storm of applause from tbe audience. Roswell 0. Horr, ex-Congressman from a Michigan district, was the speaker at the National service at 4 p.

m. Mr. Horr's address was confined to an attack upon Darwinism and Its theories. In opening be said be bad tbe greatest esteem and respect for Darwin, and tl at he believed the great scientist was not only one of tbe greatest men that ever lived, bnt that be was also most earnest and thorough in his researches and sincere in bis beliefs. Mr.

Horr felt confident, however, that Darwin hit wide of tbe mark when be came to draw his final conclusions. In Darwin's theory we are told that there is a little one-celled animal called monom, and that tbla small germ of life is tbe origin of all tbe human life upon the globe. Mr. Horr said that though he bad looked into tbe subject thoroughly, he bad failed to comprehend bow tbe flea and elephant were both sprung from this one germ of animal life. He believes that life is the result of spontaneous growth, and that when the great Rnler of the universe saw a necessity for any special variety of animal life He created it.

He deplored the universal effort of the present day to materialize everything and claims that tbe idea is contrary to every law of natnre. To make clear his point the speaker took as illustrations examples from vegetable life. For instance, while you can engraft a scion of one tree into tbe limb of a tree belonging to the same great class of vegetable life with perfect success, it is impossible to accomplish this feat successfully when it is tried upon entirely different speoies of the same great kingdom. This same principle, Mr. Horr claims, is exemplified in all the laws of animal life.

Tbe bnman nature, said tbe speaker, is double. There is the body and the spirit. The Henry Klein Arreted for Entering llmdley'a Bath llounen, Oflker William Rogers made an important arrest this afternoon. The prisoner la Henry Klein of Plnlnfleld, aged 10, and it Is believed he is the thief who has been robbing the bath houses on the beach.

He did not secure any plunder and next tackled the Fourth avenue bouses. He entered several rooms by tbe aid of keys he bad in his possession and was pounced upon as he was trying the fifth consecutive room. When searched four bath house keys were found in his pockets. He admitted that he hod entered the bath houses, but denied having stolen anything. He said he came from Newark this morning on the excursion.

The keys, he maintained, be procured last summer. Klein was arraigned before Justice Borden, who committed him to the county jail to await the action of the grand jury. He admitted having a chum and Officer Rogers is looking for that individual. GARDNER'S BAD BREAK. A Coleman II nil Boy Take Liberties With the Belonging of Unent.

William II. Gardner, colored, the head hall man at the Coleman, was arraigned before Justice Borden this morning charged with breaking into tbe room of Samnel Austin, a guest at the hotel, and stealing a bottle of brandy and ransacking the bnrean drawers in the chamber.

The most severe thunder storm of the season broke loose over Asbury Park at (I o'clock last evening and didn't stop its ravages until tbe water was rushing down the main streets in rivulets and the lightning had run riot in the private dwellings aud out-buildlngs of the vicinity. At about 4.30 in the afternoon the clouds began to gather in the south-east and the increasing inky blackness of the heavens gave ample warning to the pedestrians on the boardwalk and to the large audiences gathered in the Park and Grove Auditoriums that a deluge of no mean proportions was coming. The day had been one of the most sultry of the season and though the people quickened their pace so to reach their respective hotels before the ruin began to full, it was with a feeling of intense relief that the change in temperature was noted and the mercury, which had been holding sway in the nineties, took a drop of thirty degrees in alout as many minutes.

At 6 o'clock the pent-up waters burst their confines and, amid the flush of lightning, descended in great sheets of rain that threatened destruction to everything that came within its reach. At about 0.20 the temperature became almost wintry and the rain gave place for a while to the hail stones which came pattering down upon the roofs. and sidewalks with steady clatter. But through all the downfall the lightning had not beeu running wild for the fun of it. Buildings were iu its way ar.il with the usual rapidity of the electric bolt it despatched some and damaged others.

The first victim was one of the annexes of J. K. Hsyward's cottage on Asbury avenue, Ocean Grove. Mrs. M.

A. Hollis and her daughter Annie were sitting in the room when the bolt entered, and though the lightning did no serious damage, the shock prostrated Miss Hollis and it was some time before she recovered from its effects. The born of George B. Wolley at New Bedford was another building which came in the path of the destroying fire, nud with its store of grain and hay was totally demolished at a loss of $1,000. The horses and machinery were saved with the exception "bf a cow, which was struck by the bolt just outside the bam.

Another bolt followed which felled to the ground a large oak standing iu the rear of the building. The lightning also played about the belfry or the Glendola though no great damage was done. When tbe storm cleared away at about 7.30, several wash-outs were found in the streets of the Park and Grove, but the thoroughfares are well enough soaked to give the overworked watering carts a chance to put up for repairs.

Bain's lecture Saturday night unable to get seats and lost night every thing in and about the Auditorium was packed to the utmost to hear the silver-toned ointor from Kentucky again. Tho morning meeting were well attended, too, and the Auditorium was again filled at ln.IJil to beur Rev. Dr. J. Embury Price of New York.

Tbe preliminary song service uml the prayer by Rev. J. Y. Dobbins of Wilmington were inspiring and fittingly prepared the way for Dr. Price's excellent address, which was based on Col.

28. The development of a perfect manhood was the thought enlarged upon, and this was to be accomplished by the preaching of fesus Christ. He portrayed in glow-iug word pictures bow the universe addressed itself to the development of man's uature. The cravings of hunger, he said, were met by bread; of intellect, by truth; our (esthetic natures had beauty for their development and our ocial natnres, power. But it was alone in the atmosphere of the Holy Spirit that our religious natures could grow, und the most jerfect type of manhood was to be attained only by coming directly to Jesus Chiist.

Following Dr. Price, Bishop Hurst gave a short, spirited exhortation, urging the accepting of Christ now by all who bad not received Him already. The Sunday School numbered 2202 in all departments, but the beach meeting was abandoned, on account of the rain, for the first time this season.

The Colonel was only liy years old when he delivered bis first lecture there. His subject last night was "Our Country, Our Homes and Our Duty," a plea for American homes. He showed that the corner stone of the Republic was the home, and that the ruin power was the great undermining and disrupting element to them. Ho denounced high license nnd claimed that the only way to throttle the rum dragon was by absolute prohibition. At the close of his address he was given a hearty Ocean Grove salute, and Dr.

Stokes read a poem he had composed during the lecture, euologizing the orator, when another salute was fired.

We are coming to liud that there existsa great law between the mind and body and as result of this definite though unclearly 'demonstrated discovery, there have arisen the different beliefs leading to hypnotism, Christian science, faith cures and many other like outgrowths of questionable beliefs. Certainly there is proof that the mind acts independently of the body, and, if this is so, the soul will exist after the body has passed away. Why, then, ctrn it not have a separate existence while remaining in the body Mr. Horr closed with an illustration of a superintendent in a great copper mine controlling the movements of the cars traveling np and down a great chute by observing a little indicator iu his office, which told the location of tbe car.

In the same way the speaker holds that there is one great Being controlling the universe; that so long juMihe world lasts the monom will remain a monom.
