DIR. Carter at Central-Avenue Church.

Dr. Carter at Central avenue Church.
Rev. DR.. Carter, editor of the Methodist Ad-
vocate Chattanooga, Tenn, preached to large
congregation at Central-avenue Church, yesterday
morning, with great acceptance. Mr.. Carter is a
graduate of Asbury, and. therefore, feels at
home in Indiana. He has been missionary to
China, and now occupies the responsible and
honorable position of one of the church editors
in the Southern field His sermon was based
upon the text, us the young man Alb.
salon safer He treated the subject under the
questions is he intellectually SAFE and is he
socially safe! In the most earnest and impas-
stoned manner he referred to the dangers that
beset young men on the lines of their education
and reading and also upon the the lines of their
social natures, referring especially to liquor and
RIGHTEOUSNESS as twin monsters that beset life in
its formative periods, and against which home
and church were compelled to exert every posi-.
bic restraining and reformatory influence. The
discourse was listened to with deep interest
At the close DR.. Carter presented the cause of
his paper, for which he is visiting the North
and received a handsome response from the con-
gregaton. In the afternoon he addressed the
Sabbath-school with an interesting sketch of the
position of girls AID women in China The Doc
tor will be in the city until Tuesday.

OTHER CHURCH SERVICES.

Annual Harvest Home Celebration by the
Sunday-SchOOl of First Baptist Church.
The Sunday-school of the First Baptist Church
has celebrated several Harvest Homes, but
never has this annual thanksgiving been so
beautifully remembered and celebrated as it was
done by that Sunday school yesterday. The
service was almost wholly one of song and took
form in a cantata Under the Palms. or the
Flower Feast" illustrating the Jewish feast of
tabernacles after the captivity. The main audi
ence room of the church was more charminely
decorated with flowers than ever before, while
the fruits of the vine and tree. grains, grasses
and vegetables were also tastefully arranged.
Professor Beissenherz, who has long conducted
the orchestra of the Sunday school, had larger
force than usua. and the instrumental assist
ance aided greatly in bringing out the beauties
of the cantata w. G. Smock conducted the
choir and chorus. Among those taking promi-
nent parts in solos and quartets were Mr.. apd
Mrs. Dan DeWolf, Mrs. George Branham, Mrs.
w. c. Smock, Miss Kate Resener, Miss Grace
McChesney Mrs. F. W. Day, Miss Jessie Hood,
Miss Alice Betticher, Edward Swift, Edward
Harvey, Dr. Hoover and Thomas Porter
DR.. Jeffery was surprised by the presentation
of large and beautiful floral design bearing
the enigmatical figures ''52, " which he at first
took to be an allusion to his age. but the felici
tous presentation speech of D. F. Appel gave him
the information that the allusion was to the
number of Sunday school children who had unit
ed with the church during the short time he had
been mere pastor. The Doctor was quite up
set for the moment, but rallied and made brief
but feeling talk to the school Superintendent
w. c. Perkins, of the Sunday-school, was also
presented with a handsome floral design The
large room was filled even to the galleries, and
the Harvest Home was in every way q success

CHAPTER III.
HEADLoNG FLIGHT.

The course of Angus was unexpected
and significant, his signals revealing to
the British officer that others we're near.
"Don't fire." he exclaimed to the soldier
with him. "Disarm the boy, bayonet him
if he resists, then mount and follow"
The infantryman as we have learned in
previous chapter had advanced the
point of his weapon to the throat of An
gus, who had thrown himself off his horse
to escape the thrust and so gain time to
give the four whistles which would bring
George back and put him on his guard.
Before the boy could gather himself up
from his fall the soldier was again almost
upon him with his cleaning bayonet, in
tending first to kill and then disarm him.
Spurred by the powerful instinct to shun
DEATH Angus darted under the horses
body, Selling in his half concious, desper-
ate effort for self preservation the legs of
the officer, who was preparing to mount,
and jerking with such violence as to throw
their owner upon his back. Bouncing up
ON him like a young panther the boy
drew the officers pistol from his belt, then
turned and fired almost into the face of
the pursuing soldier. The man dropped
dead across the body of the struggling
officer and bore him to the earth again.
Painting and actually crying from excite
ment and horror at the tragedy Angus
nevertheless through all the terrible e.
deal held fast to the principle of duty.
Snatching up the soldiers musket he
shouted to the officer: 'Lie still or I'll pin
you to the grOund;" then sent out agon-
izing cry: "Georgel Burtonw

THE FIGHTING BUSINESS.

American APTlcullllflbts
"A fight out in Texas in past days par
ticularly, means hight with pistols. A
man gets in brawl, pistols are drawn
and he kills some one. If this is done,
fairly, no one thinks much of 1t. Then
suppose this man is unluckey enough to.
get into another difficulty and again kills
a man. From that time he commences
to be known and talked about, and be-
comes in constant danger of an attack
from the friends of the man he has shot,
and still more from a certain class of
'rustlers' who are DESTROYS of earning
reputation as "man-killer" for them
selves by shooting somebody who bears
the reputation of being one, just as east
ern pugiiists are constantly trying to
knock ont John l.. Sullivan. The knowl-
edge of this keeps the man always on tho
alert; he seldom drinks to excess, is al
ways prepared to defend himself, and he
constantly studies how to shoot accurately
and above all, quickly. Consequently any
one who does tackle him is pretty certain
TO get the worst of 1t. In this way man
without desiring it in the least, may be
actually forced into killing number of
Others"

The Sunday laws vary in the different
States, and the extra legal discretionary
powers assumed by the police and court
authorities vary more than the laws do,
In many cities the merchant who would
open his store and sell dress goods and
notions would be vigorously prosecuted
and b0ycOtted by the religious part of the
community while his next.door neigh
Dor is allowed to sell whisky and beer
without hindrance. 1t seems to be the
sentiment in such places that the latter
are necessaries, while the former are not.
Barriers have nearly everywhere been
allowed to pursue their calling up to the
church-gOing hours on Sunday forenoons.
1t has been generally conceded that they
are engaged in work OF necessity-as
things go in this wOrld-for cleanliness
and decency are considered by all good
Christians as next to goodness. The Su.
preme Court of Massachusetts, however
has upset this doctrine.
The testing of the question came about
In a rather odd manner. Last spring
the Journeymen BARRIERS Union OF Wor.
cester joined the Knights OF Labor and re
solved not to work on Sundays any more.
They cot an order or ukase' from the City

on that day, but one boss name Dexters
refused to obey the order. He was ar.
rested and convicted. The case being

the lower court was sustained, and

last by the court of last resort. The
court held that everybody that requires
such a service should shave Saturday

The Solid south.

Since the Congressional elections, in
which the Republicans gained some re-
markable victories IN Virginia and North
Carolina, the talk about the probable
breaking of the solid South has been re-
newed by the Republican politicians.
Notwithstanding the evidence to the con-
trary, they continue to assert that the
Republicans gains were due to the growth
of the protection sentiment, and that tn e
protectionists generally voted with the
Republicans.
An analysis of the returns from the
States named seems to show to the contrary
of what is claimed. 1t was in the agricul-
tural sections generally where the Re-
pubicans gained Congressman, while in
the cities the d emOcrats generally held
their own, notably in the Richmond dis
trict, where the protection sentiment is
said TO be strongest, but where Demo
cratic revenue reformer was nominated
and elected by large majority.
There is no question but that the Dem
ocratic losses were due to the apathy
caused by the want of organization and
direction of the campaign by men who
knew now 10 bring out the Democratic
voters, and who appreciated the dangers
of failure to develop vigorous and ag-
gressive contest.
No doubt these reverses will serve to
teach anew to the Democracy of those
States the necessity for thorough organi-
cations, such as Mr.. Barbour inaugurated
in his campaigns against Malone. The
apathy was, perhaps, not so much in the
voters as in the party leaders, who failed
to sustain their claims to the quallfica-
ti0ns that should belong to leaders.
There is little reason to fear that such
a state OF things Will prevail in 1888. A
lesson has been taught the Democrats of
these States that they will hardly forget
in the near future. There is little reason
TO doubt that the South will be as solid
two years hence as it was two years ago.

One OF the most remarkable crusades
Of the times in some re spects was brought
to an end last week in Pennsylvania. 1t
was a campaign OF the Women's Christian
Temperance Union against the liquor
dealers on the occasion of the annual ap-
plication OF the latter for licenses. In
every county in the State, except two or
three in which the discretion of the off
Gals charged with granting licenses
is limited under special laws, the ladies'
filed voluminOus petitions protesting gen.
orally against any increase In the num-
Der OF saloons licensed. and obiecting
specially 10 the licensing of persons who
were known to be disreputaole In sew
eral strong temperance counties the ladies'
protested against the granting OF any
| licenses.
The work was done quietly, but thor
oughly. and the liquor men were greatly
surprised in many instances to see their
applications postponed from day to day
aud week to week. In one county spe-
cial commissioner was appointed to take
testimony for and against the petitioners,
and several weeks were thus consumed,
and in another county all the old licenses
ran out ana times were "dry'' for several
DAYS.
The result was that nearly a thousand
applications were refused, and the ladies'
considered that they had won a great VIC
tory, and have been quite jubIldnt on that
account. In five counties no licenses at
all were issued this year.
If the temperance people are in earnest
in the cause they should fight for it in
every practical manner possible.
/ What they should aim for is results, and
not the carrying out OF fanatical or i'm
| practicable theories. In some sections
| prob bItiOn works well, and IA others IL
cannot be enforced, but restrictive
measures accomplish tue greatest good.
Ia some instances, where the restrictive
| laws are not enforced, the ladies OF the
| Temperance Union are taking steps TO
make the officials charged vita the Gu

! plan seems 10 be, first to petition the au-

The Egyntian Question.

The question of English supremacy in
Egypt seems to be rapidly approaching
crisis. There are reasons for believing
that England viii either have to with
draw from that country in accordance
with the wishes of other powers, or
! strengthen her hold on it by boldly an
neXing it as Que of her dominiOns. Ii Is
impossible to predict what the result
Of annexation would be, but it ls difficult
to conceive how it could be paaceably
effected, unless the powers more direct ly
interested should become involved in
other disputes that would render them
unable to resist or resent such a step.
England has long held mortgage on
the land or the Pharashs, and she would
be glad OF any opportunity to foreclose
it. When the opportunity presents itself
the pretext will not be wanting.
The strategic position of Egypt is OF far
more importance to England than its in
trinsic value, though that loug exhausted
land, no doubt, still has many undevel-
oped resources which might be drawn out
under any enlightened and benehcent
government.
AS to the masses OF the Egyptians it
probably makes little difference TO them
who their masters are. For many genera
tions they have been sunk in degradation,
and have been 40 less The vic Tins OF
ignorance and superstition tnan the prey
OF their various conquerers. They
would probably be better off under
British rule than under any they have
n t41l To-.
have SO long been the subjects of oppres-
sion and misrule, however, that they
would be slow to take advantage of such
conditions OF progress as England's
agents might inaugurate consistently
with the practice of extracting from them
all the tribute they can pay.
