not through the instrumentality Of the
Western Union.

Around that one soul circles the mist, the

wailing, the hallelujah, and the woe OF
Gods universe. IL the soul is saved, then
| liD comes to trumpet and fingers to harp
and hammer TO bell and there Is Joy among
the angels OF God over that one soul for
given.n For such a soul l plead.
Having found in my own experience that
this religion Is a comfort aud a Joy, | stand
here 70 commend it 70 you. In the days Of
my infancy l was carried Dy Christian par
ents TO the house Of God, and consecrated in
baptism to the Father, and the Son, and the
Holy Ghost; but thai did not save me. In
after time l was taught to kneel at the
Christian family altar with father and
mother and brothers aud sisters, the most
Of them now in glory: Dut that did not save
me. In after time l read Doddridge's "Rise
and Progress and Baxter's "Call 10 the
Unconverted." )" and all the religious books
around my fathers household; but that did
not save me. But one day the voice of Christ
came into my heart saying, "Repent re-
pent; believe. believe" and l accepted
the offer Of mercy, and though no doubt
there was more joy in heaven over the con-
version Of other souls because of their far
reaching influence, l verify believe whom l
gave my heart TO God there were some
spirits in heaven the gladder for the deed.
There is joy in heaven among the angels
of God over one sinner that repenteth." )"
Turn this day to the Lord who bought you.
Let this whole audience surrender them
selves to Jesus Christ. II for ten, twenty,
fifty years you have not prayed, begin now
to pray. "Ow you say, 81 can't pray" Can
you not say, "God be merciful to me, a sin
nerP "No, you say, 81 can't soy that" Then
can you not look TO the throne of mercy
No. you say, II can't look up" Can you
not then give some signal like that which
was given by the lad in the hospitall He
was sick and suffering and dying, and
wanted speedily to 20 away from all suffer
ing and pain, and he said to his comrades in
the hospital: sit is strange to me that
Jesus doesn't see me when he goes through
here nights and takes others 20 himself. He
goes through here and he doesn't see me. /
must be asleep and he doesn't know l want
20 go.
NOW, tell you how l IL arrange 10. I'll
go to sleep with my hand up, and then,
when Jesns comes through the hospital by
night he will see my hand lifted, and he
will know by that want to 20 with him"
So it was done. For that night Jesus went
through the hospital aud took the suffering
lad, aud the next morning the nurse pass
ing through the wards of the hospital, saw
a dead hand lifted braced on one side
against the pillow. and the left hand hold
ing the elbow Of the right arm. Jesus had
seen the signal and answered it. o. sick
soul, wounded soul. dying soul, canst thou
not give some signal! Wilt tnou not lift
one hand or one prayer! God grant that
this day there may be joy in heaven among
the angels OF God over your soul forgivenl

From the Neto Hdven Palladium.
NEW YORK, Feb. 16.-Collis P. Hunting
ton, frequently called Central Pacific Hunt
ington, from the fact that he was one of the
builders Of that railroad and became very
rich thereby, has added so largely TO his
fortune during the last twelve or fifteen
years that he is now supposed to be worth
about s50,0O0.000. Despite his enormous
wealth he has simple tastes. inexpensive
habits and is wholly free from ostenta-
tion. While neat in his dress, he Is
rather careless. consulting comfort more
than style, in which he is a conspicuous ex~
ception to the great majority Of Wall street
men, noted for their fastdious and fashion
able attire. As an instance, he has always
been opposed to silk hats, so generally
adopted in the financial quarter, con-
tending himself with an amorphous soft
felt of uncertain though visiblys antique
date.
Speaking on this subject one day to a
fellow magnate. he said: II feel that am
well enough off to wear what like. II
depended on $4,000 or IS. 900 clerkship, l
suppose should be obliged to mount
stovepipe."
Plain, practical man, though be is, he
has been very lavish since his recent mar
Tiage, bis second WIFE an attractive widow
whom he had known in California, being
much younger than himself, and naturally
caring for luxuries TO which he is indiffer-
ent. He has latterly bought high-priced
pictures, paying $4,000 each for some Of
them, many rare books, fine old china and
exquisite bric-a-brac etc. All these are to
adorn the new mansion he has nearly fin
ished at Fifth avenue and Fifty-seventh
street, in which his wife takes the deepest
interest, desiring to make it one Of the show
houses of the city.
Huntington. having no children OF his
own, has adopted son of his present wife
and also a daughter lately married to a
German prince, whose debts, reaching to q
round million, he generously paid off to in
sure his connubial peace of mind
: The railroad strap is now past 20, but he
is as vigorous and alert as he was at 40, aud
looks the reverse Of aged. He is a fine
physical specimen, very tall. broad shopl-
dered, erect and muscular. His simplicity
Of life has served him In good stead, and he
bids fair to be a monetary power for years
to come.

The WORK of the Ocean Steamship Com
pany is felt in this city and IN fact through
out the state in bringing people. To-day
some sixty tourists arrived at the Cordova.
To vary sthe monotony of festivities the

A Heavy Demand for Builders Mate
rials-New Cottages Going Up.
QUINCY, FLA, Feb 21.-There was never
in the history of Quincy such demands for
builders materials as at the present. All
mills about town have refused to take or
ders for lumber because, they say, they
have as many as they can fill for several
months to come. The same is the case with
those remote from town, where the farmers
are drawing heavily In order that they may
be in time with their barns for tobacco. 1t
is estimated that from forty to sixty barns
will be built IN the eastern portion OF the
county within the next ninety days. The
demand for money is equally as great, and
for that reason the Gadsden County Build
ing and Loan Association has about decided
to increase its capital stock to 1850, 900 and
issue it as fast as taken in series of S50, 900
each.
W. NJ. Cory, general manager of the Owl
Cigar Company is building very pretty
2-story cottage east of town, which has
been leased for two years.
A. L. Wilson has about completed two
such cottages, also leased before completed.
II seems that the building fever has taken
Quincy.
Col. r. H. NJ Davidson has returned
from Washington. His friends here regret
very much that he should have entered the
fight against Senator Call, because he was
good possibility for the governorship at
the coming election, but they now coucode
the fact that he is out Of the race. AS yet
the candidates for county offices have not
come forward but it is rumored that there
will be several changes

a PooR SHOW For SILVER.
Its Chances In the House CROWN
Less Every Day.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 2L-As matters now
stand here, it is not likely that a caucus Of
the democratic members Of the House would
be Of any use, unless it could agree
to adopt Representative Bynum's
plan, put of silver legislation until
next December or accept the plan of passing
the declaratory resolution which have bsen
broached. Certain is it that the free silver
extremists would never submit to anything
more definite in the way of opposition TO
their pet scheme. On the other hand. the
sound money democrats, especially the casts
ern men, would never consent, caucus or u
caucus, to let down the bars to free silver.
REPRESENTATIVE WILLIAMS OPPOSITION
George Fred Williams, the leader of the
sound money men in the coinage committee,
and men like him would not participate in
any caucus that could possibly have such
an outcome. The request for the caucus is
now in Chairman Holman's hands and he
may not call it until next week. or perhaps
on next Saturday night. The chances for
passing any silver bill this session grows
less and less each day. The committee on
ways and means is TO report the other bills
at once. Representative Turner of that
committee said to-day: 1--WE will bring in
the other bills as soon az possible as we
want to get them out of our own way,n
