Services at the Methodist and Baptist
Churches Yesterday.

&. DIR. West at the Methodist church
had large audience yesterday, and
he preached great sermon on the
year of Jubilee, contrasting the laws
and customs Of Israel, the equality
of the people with the avarice Of the
present age and showing the two ex-
tremes of latter day society. Under
the ancient laws every seventh day
was devoted to the service of God /;
all business was suspended. Every
seventh year was year of rest and
everything was held in common (;
the hftieth year was the year of Jubi-
lee, when every man surrendered all
of his possessions, and the people en-
tered upon year of rejoicing, after
nine days preparation. 1t was i'm
possible for any man to become very
rich and none were very poor. I'm
der our system of laws the larger
class was being reduced to extreme
poverty and wretchedness, while a
few were becoming immensely rich,
and it now appears that the time is
near al hand when very few men
will own and control by their wealth
this vast country. He held up this
picture in glazing light that the audi
ence might observe whittier we are
travelling and the awful consequences
to which our system is leading. His
peroration on the Heavenly Jubilee
was simply grand. A short synopsis
can in no wise do the sermon justice.
1t ought to be printed in tract form
and distributed broadcast as an edu-
Gator and a caution against the evil
tendencies.
DIR. Sears, at the Baptist church,
preached Nicodemus going by night
to Christ to know what he must do
to be saved, and his failure to compre-
bend the doctrine of being spiritual
ly born again. The old gentleman,
as usual, rode high horse and great
ly entertained his audience. After
the conclusion of the services the
regular monthly business meeting of
the church was held and commit
tee appointed to raise the money,
81 ,565, with which to pay for new
and modern ceiling for the church,
etc.

Editors Tobacco af-Chronicle.
Spring wheat is looking well and
the prospect for good yield is en-
couraging. The pastures are suf-
ficiently forward to admit of limited
grazing. A majority Of the planters
have sold aud delivered their tobacco

other crop. From what / can learn
they will strive for better and larger
yield.

Yesterday was a day that made
people brush up their last spring suit
and take stroll on the boulevards,
or hire a horse and buggy and go at
a 2:40 gait on the shell road. There
was general stir and every one
seemed happy, contented. A stran-
ger spending the day in the city was
heard to eXclaim elbow do so many
young men afford to put on such
style and ride in such fine buggies ?'
Friend, the majority of them do it on
the American silver dollar The
others run their faces, AS rule
they have the currency to meet such
expenses, and il trial balance We're
made you would find that the assets
of the buggy-riding young men OF
GAINESVILLE would exceed liabilities.
They are worth one hundred cents
on the dollar and are patriotic to the
core. They can stand it; that's all
there is in it,"

WHAT PEOPLE TALK ABOUT.

WHAT PEOPLE TALK ABOUT
The natural gas question has been
agitated so much Of late in the news
papers that people are beginning to
talk about it. One fellow said yes
terday that he knew where vein as
big as his leg could be found nearly
right on top of the ground. He
traced it one Sunday with divining
rod from the old passenger depot to
the river. He says it runs nearly
right straight down the railroad to
the river, where it runs out under
the bank into the Cumberland and
makes a blue streak clear across it.
When he had delivered this infor
nation he Strengthened himself up
and squirted stream of tobacco
juice through hole where tooth
had been knocked out that would
have drowned a half grown mallard
duck and said he wanted to sell his
information to the fellows who have
been "prospicten." All he wanted
was 'Just what was right" and if
Capt. Gracey and Mr.. Woodward
would come down with the cash he
would show them exactly where to
sink a shaft that would turn out
enough gas to run GAINESVILLE till the
millennium.
Boring for natural gas will begin
at Erin in few days, judging from
what Editor Broaddus says in the
News. For gas, he says, Erin can
beat GAINESVILLE any day in the
week in fact the whole village is
founded on gas.
