take heed and keep yourselves from all

he possesseth." The sermon was character

TEMPERANCE MAss-MEETING.
. Al
Colonel g. w. Balm addressed large audi
ence on the subject OF temperance. Colonel
Balm discussed the question from the stand
point of business, labor and capital He
claimed that over five hundred millions of
dollars are annually spent for liquor by
necessaries of life, and what is spent
for liquor, if turned into legitimate
trades, would set every wheel in the
machinery of trade to work and be to the
families of drinking laboring men like
opening the gates of corral and letting
hungry, winter-starved cattle loose on
boundless prairie of waving grass. His ap-
peal was to business men, laboring men
and Christian people to join in an effort to
drive what he called 1.-THE pirate of the
liquor traffic from the sea of commerce."
1t is expected that DR.. +. w. Gunsaulus
of Chicago will give his first lecture on to-
day.
Next Thursday afternoon miscellaneous
programme of solos, gees and choruses
will be given by the Chautauqua Chorus,
under the direction of j. j. Morris.
