Sam Jones in Nashville.

Mr.. Jones announced as his text
Jer. xxxii. SS-41, from which he
preached sermon from which the
following paragraphs are taken:
would want no better text than
this from which to preach a sermon
on Christian unity, but I shall take a
different and possibly more practi-
cal view of the text.
God teaches us He will give us one
heart. What kind of a heart will it
be? -
About the hardest undertaking in
this world is for man to be good
when he has bad heart.
Many man tries to clean up his
life just like the man who was try
ing to clear the spring branch to get
a drink. He was told to drive the
hog out Of the spring above him and
the water would get clear.
The man who loves leeks and
onions don't care much for grapes
and figs.
About the best evidence of a mans
conversion is his anxiety to have
Others converted. / want to see the
same anxiety for the salvation of
souls that 1 saw three years ago.
believe a preacher can backslide
right in the midst of a revival. If
you don't believe it you don't know
us very well. You go and talk with
his wife. We preachers in Georgia
backslide.
The meanest people in the world
is that church that packs it's pastor
in an ice-box and then cusses him all
the year because he don't sweat.
These little spelling-book critics
are like these red ants that sometimes
get after you-they don't hurt, but
they just make you itch.
God says, 81 will give my people
one way" and His people here in
Nashville have struck out forty or
fifty different ways to glory. Some
go by way of theater, some the ball
room, some the race course, some the
baseball, and that's not q respectable
way to hell.
The difference between bar-rooms
and bathrooms is this: The bar
rooms are after our boys and the ball
rooms are after our girls.
If was an average of the dancing
young men-and / think | was-no
pure young girl can afford to go on
the floor Of the ball room. Now,
some of you peripatetic dudes back
there pretend that you are outraged
by that, and that | have reflected up
on your honor. You have no more !
honor than the devil. There is not |
a pure girl in Nashville whose virtue
would be safe in your care if you
were not afraid ola double. barrelled |
shotgun.
Show me a pious man that belongs
to the Hermitage Club and I'll eat
the whole business, brick and all.
Club life is incompatible with the
Christian life.
If Jones is not a liar or a
maniac there are some leading men
here of the church in Nashville who
had better call halt.
! never ask man if heaglees with
me. / only ask him if he under
stands me. If he understands what
| say that's enough for me.
1t playing cards don't make yoC a
better Christian let us say down with |
the cards and up with the Bible.
A cross is not something for a
Christian to take around with him
all the time. A cross is for asinner to
die on.
God never gave commandment
that He did not know would be for
the good of His children.
l am glad every day that God has
made me SO many promises, and
thank God that every time He makes |
me q first-class promise He says

THE LEGISLATURE ADJOURNED.
Speaker Cole Presented with n $500 Watch
and Chain by the Assembly.

ESPECIAL TO THE WORLD
ALBANY, May 1.-The sinful Legislature
of 1888 began its last days business with a
rush. But three hours were afforded to
hurry through the almost innumerable jobs
that lay upon the clerks desks, and members
fairly fought with each other to send their
pet schemes along TO the Executive chamber.
The Assembly got to work at 8 this morning.
The well was quickly filled by yelling men,
bers, and the Speakers gavel was constantly
in motion to preserve order. In this he was
unable to succeed.
An hour after business had been resumed
Judge John b. Longley, of Kings, in a taste
fully. conceived speech, presented to the
Speaker, on behalf of the Assembly, a $500
watch and chain. Five minutes were devoted
to an examination of its beauty.
Later on the Speaker blushed on being
handed a basket of flowers.
Then Gen. Hustled asked that the vote by
which the $1,000 900 Prison Appropriation
bill was lost the other day be reconsidered
He was defeated, but So f~avoring the scheme
and 40 opposing it.
This means an extra session.. sure" re-
marked the Bald Eagle, as in anger he re-
sumed his seat.
The remainder of the morning was occu-
pied in passing and killing bills. The inter
nal tax levy, which purports to reduce the
rate from 2 71-100 to 28-10 was approved.
At IL o'clock the Legislature adjourned.

On Friday Albert covered "a miles 7 laps.
I.ittlewood is being urged by Guerrero to-
day, and this will aid him in his days work.
The prospect that Littlewood will beat
Albert's record results already in speculation
as to a new race. If the Sheffield blond does
succeed there will be q match made in the fall,
which will bring out the best pair of legs in
the world.
Frozen Bill" Corney has already re-
ceived n message from Charlie Rowell. who
is building boats at Cambridge, England.

wood and Albert compete,
Guerrero began to show the effects of his
steady running without sleep this forenoon,
and the wise heads wagged ominously. Old
stagers say that the Greaser will be obliged
to drop to third place before midnight. The
b~ookmakers are selling Herty for second
place.
L%ittlewood has set $50 O'Clock this even
ing as the time for him to pass Albert's
record. after which he will go to bed.
At $50 p. NJ. of the fifth day Albert's score
was 634 miles. To reach that figure Little:
wood must go ut a twelve-minute clip all
day. This is easy for him.
At noon Iittlewood was only four miles
and q lap behind Albert's record, and seven
miles behind Fitzgerald's score.

SCORE AT I Il. NJ.

The ninety-sixth hour in positively the last
go-as. you please in old Madison Square Gar
den, reached last night Mt midnight. found
George Littlewood getting into q clean suit
Of tights preparatory to resuming the work
of catching up with the record of Jimmie
Albert. He had slept since a little after 0
o'clock, when he had scored 427 miles and q
laps. He was ten miles and two laps behind
Albert's record for that hour. But Albert
worked until midnight in his race before he
slept, and his score at that hour was 45O
miles and l lap.
Littlewood was a little stiff, and it took him
two hours to get his joints in first-class
working order, during which time he may
have cogitated comfortably on these points (:
Albert made 1902 miles 1 lap on Thursday in
the February race, and the blond from John
Bulls Island covered only 10l miles. but
Hazael made the record for the ninety ninth
hour, and Paddy ~Fitzgerald's scoro in 1884
for the twelve succeeding hours is still the
record, while George Hazael comes in again
for the record from the 129d to the 132d hour.
Albert made II miles better than Fitzger-
aid at the end Of the race, and George Hazael
did not win, although his record was nine
miles better than Littlewood's mt midnight.
And that was only a $40. mile race, which
Albert beat by II miles and o fraction.
Albert covered only "a miles 7 laps on Fri
day because he had a sure thing, and Satur-
day he took merely an after dinner stroll of
70 miles.
Littlewood started again exactly twenty
three miles behind Albert's record. That was
four hours work. There was conf
dence in his face as he limbered up. To beat
the record at 10 o'clock tomorrow night he
must cover 1876 miles. He had forty-six hours
to dc 1t in, and his fve-mile trot would do that
nicely, leaving him seven hours for rest and
" recreation"
Gus Guerrero had been industrious while
the Sheffield boy was taking natural sleep,
and when Littlewood resumed work the
greaser was only five miles behind. But the
Aztec had hardly slept a wink in twenty-tour
hours, and, although he ran as lightly M
ever, he was not 80 fast, and Littlewood's
face wore a satisfied smile as he looked the
brown-faced Westerner over.
But Gus Guerrero il an uncertain guam
tity.
Jack Hughes, his left leg soaked full of
liniment. hobbled painfully. He had dropped
back from first to fifth place in the race, and
at midnight Noremac, the drawn and canny
Scotchman, caught and passed him, and Dan
Dillon, cadaverous and thin, was overhaul
ing him in the early morning.
Blu Old Sport Campana, who reconsidered
his determination to quit, and came on again
was still left for Hughes to beat, and unless
one of them drops dead the Lepper will
achieve that honor.

Paddy Fitzgerald, but only seven miles be.
