DIR. PEAasoN's MEETINGS.
The Second One Almost as Largel
Att60dad aa the Firsf

The Second One Almost as Largely
Attended as the First.
The second of the meetings by Rev. r. g.
Pearson at Wesley Monumental church last
night was largely attended, over 1000 peo-
pie being present.
DR.. Pearson preached a powerful and i'm
pressiye sermon from the text, aye see then
how that by works man is justified and not
by faith only"
There are, he said. three cardinal points
In tins text: Faith, works and justification
There was great deal of confusion and
justification in regard to these three things.
He discussed the text under three heads /:
How are We regarded in the sight of God.
how are we regarded in the sight of man.
and the connection between faith and
works.
DIR. Pearson's discussion showed thu ne
nessltV OF works as an evidence of faith,
holding that faith without works is dead y
and the necessity of faith with works.
works without faith being without avail,
he made very severe structures upon
church members who "drank as much
whisky, cheated aud lied as much, gam
bled and bet as much" after protesting to
be Christians and becoming members of the
church as they did before they became
members. On the other hand, he said up
Brightness of life Is no recommendation in
the sight OF God without faith. InRersoll.
he said, was temperate man, a truthful
man, charitable man, and in other re-
spects model citizen, but these things
would avail him nothing at the final iudg-
ment.
DR.. Pearsou's sermon was listened to with
great attention. He has evidently made a
good impression.
After time there will be change in the
character of the meetings and "inquiry
meetings" will n held, at which the subject
of religion willSe made personal one
At the conclusion of the sermon all
church members who intended to prove
their faith by their works were requested to
stand up and large number did so.
The Bible meeting at IL O'Clock yesterday
morning 10 the basement of the church was
well attended. The subject discussed was
''How 60 Use the Scriptures" and was ex-
planned by DR.. Pearson, with the aid of a
little pamphlet upon this subject of script
ural quotations selected by him. The SUBJ
ject of discussion at the meeting this morn
ing will be "Bible Reading aud Religious
Work" These meetings are for the special
benefit Of church members, whose attends
ence is desired.

BE DENIES FRAUD.

Horseman Heiger Says He Practiced
No Deception.
George J. Riger OF the Thorndale stock
farm, who it was alleged perpetrated a
fraud in disIbsing of colts here several
weeks ago, is hack in the city. He said the
charge that heattempted deception is not
founded on fat. He advertised his horses
as registered AID said nothing about stand
ards. TIE ANIMALS were sold with this I'M
derstanding heclaius, and the trouble came
from the fact that Inadvertently some
erased nou-sta1dard documents were used in
making out thdoertificates of registry.
Mr. Reiger said 1t is true that the horses
were thrown back upon his hands In some
instances, but since the matter was ex-
plainsd the buffers have taken them back
lie says he has always acted square in his
business Transitions, and the fraud story
was started byBome one DESTROYS Of injur-
ing him.
The horsemai claims that instead OF leav-
ing the city for fear Of trouble he went 10
other places 30 look after the sale Of stock
similar to the kind he offered here. As
soon as he LEARNED that question had come
up about the hoses 10 returned here 10 set
matters right.
