Truly the Lord is pouring out his spirit
upon the people in the leafy grove.
At the prayer meeting service last even
ing in the tabernacle, one soul was born
into His Kingdom. :,
To-day dawned with lowering clouds
and threstenings Of rain, but goodly num-
Der gathered in the tabernacle at s o'clock
and the Lord was present in His mighty
power. This meeting was conducted by
Brother Dolliner, assisted by Brother
Masden and others. On account OF the
dampness caused by yesterdays rain,
the bulic service was held at 1880 O'Clock.
Rev. Rhledat1er offered prayer, and Kew.
Lvda addressed the congregation from
text found in II Kings, s.; IL. Brother
Lyda's sermon was well received by the
listeners. His reference to Naaman's cure
Of leprosy was received with marked At
tention. The speaker in the course OF his
remarks illustrated very clearly the force
OF habit. -
The children's meeting at P. NJ. was oil
special interest. The meeting was con-
ducted BY DR. j. S. Stone, and we think he
ia the right man in the right place. When
wa entered the tabneracle, minute before
the service, the children were making 1t a
NAV house, but at word from the Doctor
the little folks were soon in their places
ready for the service. After prayer the
children were requested to repeat verse
OF scripture containing some name applleu
TO Jesus. This service was very interest,"
ing, and We were surprised at the variety
OF verses recited. The service was inter,
spersed with verse OF song now ana
then to prevent monotony. Mrs. Bell IN
PRODUCED Miss Hubbard, who spoke to the
children few very appropriate words
The subject for the children's meeting TO-
morrow is Obedience
Rev. w. G. Riheldaifer preached at .. p.
NJ. His text is found in Jer. GIG. At the
close OF the sermon two presented them
selves for prayer, and one was converted.
The young peoples meeting at 9 o'clock
this evening was conducted by Rev. Wild
inc. Three presented themselves at the
altar for prayer. One OF them received
the blessing sought. There was also one
other conversion in the congregation.
The largest crowd OF the meeting thus
far ia on the ground this evening. Or.
Masden preached from the text, "For
what shall 1t profit q man II he gain the
whole world and lose his own soul? OF
what shall man give in exchange Tor his
soul?" We would like to speak at length
Of Bro. Masden's sermon, but space for
bids: and with most 1t must be heard &c
he appreciated. The immortality and the
value OF the soul were clearly portrayed In
a very able manner, and all listened
with marked attention. After the sermon
two persons presented themselves ioi
prayers.
The meetings are still growing in inter
est, and we expect more to follow.

A disgracefu scene occurred in front o
, the Mound City Hotel this afternoon
which, from what we could gather from
the bystanders, is about as follows: Twt
J Young men by the names OF Porter ant
johnson were under the influence ofstronl
drink, and, as is usual with such persons
! began meddling with things they shoulC
haze lot alone. The proprietor OF th,
hotel, Mr.. McFadden, demonstrated will
them;t hot words ensued, and final!
blows were passed, clubs and briCkbat
used. Some parties standing by inter
Tered and tried 10 stop. the row. About
this time Sergeant Hanen put in an ap
pearapce and carried young Porter or L
Jail. Deputy Sheriff ". II. Dorsey sue
ceeded in capturing johnson, but did no
succeed in getting him TO jail, as johnson
got chance to give leg.bail. which he did
and. being swift Of loot, got away from
the officer, and is still at large;
