THE UNION REVIVAL SERVICES
The Bible readings yesterda,
afternoon were the most Inter.
esting that have been given
The hall was well filled, q ma
jority Of the churches beins
present. The services were LEI
by Mr.. Brown and others. Th,
first chapter Of Numbers was
used as a starting point and thu
divine life and mpartation in thu
soul, were illustrated in the
readings and observations. Chris
tians are evidently being united
more closely to Christ and each
other, by these services and
gatherings. Some of Mr.. Browns s
methods and points Of doctrine
may be questionable but as good
is being done 1t becomes us to
be very careful that we are not
found fighting against God and
his cause. The repairing and
rebuilding of the temple and
walls of Jerusalem under the di
rection OF Nehemiah and his
colleagues punished the leading
thought Of the evening service.
The congregation was large and
interested to the close of the
evening service.

MISTAKEN IDENTITY.-The In

ant of terrible fracas said to
We occurred last evening, in
lich it is related circumstan-
tally how "Snitfies" Of the Irt
June, was called out of his house
by a late deputy sheriff and set
upon by a muscular attorney,
and how "Snifiies'' got away
with the attorney, leaving him
covered with blood and dirt, IN
u very demoralized condition.
Seon after reading this account
We met the said attorney with
out Il scratch or other sign OF
the desperate encounter upon
his person. About the same
time, we met deputy sheriff,
with one eye and Il large por-
ton Of his head covered with
bandages, for which he would
not give any satisfactory ac
count, and it notarally occurred
to US that lie was the victim of
the prowess Of "Snifiles," who,
in his fright, had mistaken him
for the man he feared, and had
pitched in under the idea that
