This was th first earb' morning service held on Christmas day In the Congregational church of this city, and the nttondanc2 of yesterday, which was very large, gives assurance of future services ot this character. The pastor, Hew Mr. Elliott, delivered a carefully prepared sermon on "The Incarnation of God in Christ." The sermon was a purely theological presentation, proving the fact of the word being made flesh and that Christ was either divine or like other men He was not good. The sermon showed deep study, and like the one of Sunday night, lias received wide commendation. As a concluding thought, Mr.

Elliott said: "We are sitting here on the anniversary of our Lotd's birth, and only a few days before the close of the century. In the nineteen centuries that have elapsed since Christ was born Chrlstlnnlty has left Its imprint upon the face of tho earth to extent that even defies supersti tion. The closing century has grasped its oportunity, and the sweep of the ChiHtian religion has been far in excess of all other religions combined. The world Is better, and men are coming into closer union, Only a few more steps and denominatlonallsm, sectionalism, dogmatism, will be swept nsldo and In their stead will be erected a broad, liberal creed, based upon love to Christ and love to man." Christmas Exercises Tonight. Tonight the Sunday school ichlldivn of the Congiegatlor.al church will have their turn at holiday making.

The large auditorium of the church will be given over to the little ones, their teachers and friends and relatives, and appropriate Christmas exercises will be presented.

THE NEW CHURCH. The First Masses Said In the New' Church of Our Lady of Mount Car-met. Tho first service In tho new churcfl of Our I-aady of Mt. Carmel, erected by the Italian Catholics of this city, wns tho midnight mass, -which began ut 12 o'clock Monday night. The services were held in tho basement of the building, the church proper not being ready for occupancy.

The Interior had been lavishly trimmed with evergreen and other decorations nnd under tho Illumination of tho incandescent lights and altar caudles presented a very pleasing appearance. By tho time set for the opening of the services tho room had been comfortably filled, there being In the congregation many members of St. Iloso church and others. The mass was said by Itev. Anthony Cerrull, tho pastor of tho church.

Ho was assisted by a young man named Caterlno, of Archbald, who Is a theological student nt Allegany college.

When the new church is completed and ready for dedication, which will be some time about Easter, a more elaborate service will be arranged.
