WEDNESDAY, August II, 1881. !
The first service Of this year was held
last evening at the main stand, Although
but few outsiders were there, the tent
holders made quite q large congregation,
The new seats, with backs and iootstoolS,
will do much to increase the number Of
those who attend services here. DR..
Minor, Of GAINESVILLE, preached the frat
sermon from James v, 1920. II was an
earnest exhortAtion to the people to con.
secrale themselves wholly to the work for
which this meeting Ia to bs held. He set
forth the necessity for this preparation,
and the different modes by which persons
can work. .--...--..
The Presiding Elder, Rev, Gray, an.
nounCed the programme and stated what
would be expected from those camping
here. The rising bell will ring each
morning at $3.50; breakfast ut $50; morn.
ing service Rt $3.50; preaching at l0:30 A,
NJ, $3.50 p NJ and 1880 r. N Other services
TO hs announced from day to day.
This morningR prayer and praise ser.
vice was held at $3.50 O'Clock. These are
really the best meetings Of the day. II
one attends oil the preaChings they get
too much. They become surfeited and
the mind rebels. And when one is weary
Of hearing, however powerful the preach.
Ing, II does them no good. They are oil.
ther inattentive or listen merely to com.
pare and Griticise.
AT 1880 o'clock Rev. Waters, Of the
Quaker City, preached from lot Cor. 1922,
2S.
AT o'clock the chlldrena' meeting was
held In the tabernacle. Rev. SIulZ had
this IN charge and Rev. Waters and
Sprahl addressed those present. But few
were Ia attendance. Indeed, for some
reason, the meetings 10 day, 80 far, are
but sllmly attended. Perhaps the people
are not yet warmed up.
AT 2:S0 P. N. Rev. Henthorn, OF this
place, delivered discourse with Romans
SO as a text. He eet forth the attributes
Of q christian and the signs by which
they may be known.
Much dissatisfaction prevailed last year
on account OF the double admission fee,
% II was called. The tickets were changed
after Sunday, and oil persons had TO pay
over again. But this will not be the case
this year. One ticket, costing ten cents,
admits at oil times during the meeting. II
10 hoped the idea that many pFolessedly
honest persons make their tickets do duty
for many more than than they should, 10 q
mistaken one. We neglected yesterday to
state Tor the benefit Of those wishing to
come here that at the hotels and boarding
houses one dollar per day eeems to be the
scale. Without lodging, thirty.ave cents
per meal each day, except Sunday, when
II will he fifty cents per meal. BY the
week, persons can get meals at the board.
Ing tent on the grounds without lodging)
at five dollars per week. There are pri.
Vate houses prepared 10 take boarders,
more than usual, but they have their own
rates. Persons wishing boarding toward
the last Of the week must secure II early,
or they will fluid themselves out Of lodg.
lngs. The enCampment is fuller than ever
before 10 early In the meeting.
