1vangelist Martin Discourses ON Faith
and Works 1t Plymouth Church.

8VanReliot Martin Disc0ufseo ON Faith
and Works 1t Plymouth Church.
Last night was rainy and the night Of
prayer meeting in all the churches. At
Plymouth church. however. the attend
ance was such that nearly every chair was
occupied. Mr.. Martin based his sermon
on Genesis vi 20 and James v:1920. and
opened his remarks with a discussion be-
tween the Interpretation Of the latter pass
ago by the Roman Catholics and the
Protestants. Rome, he said, teaches that
works are meritorious, and that man is
saved by the merit of his work. On the
question of works, Mr.. Martin said that
men were in danger of intellectual
error. which while not in itself
morally wrong endanRers faith and
life. But faith. he said, might be
right and the life wrong, in which case the
life must be corrected. The exhortation
of James, he declared. Was directed to the
church. to brethren in error. It was some
times better. the speaker said. to save
Christian that 10 going wrong than to save
one who has never heard the truth. BY
striking illustration the evangelist inn
pressed the responsibility Of each man for
his brother.
As the meeting was closing Pastor r. E.
Dunlap announced that a special col
lection would be taken on Sunday for the
building of = tabernacle for the First
Christian church on Second street. This
building will be constructed at once if
sufficient funds can be secured. 1t is be-
lieved that single collection will furnish
q sufficient SUN. Tonight the topic will
be Triumph IN Christ"

Whatever the city of Washington does mus
be well done. That has been the rule for sew
sral wears past. and euvious communities cannot
make scOrnful remarks about the hospitality
which the National Capital dispenses whenever
the occasion is OF sufficient magnitude to call
forth the dollars Of our citizens. Other centers
Of population have, for instance, entertained
the Grand Army OF the Republic, but none
ever played the host thoroughly or pleased
the guests more unanimously than did this
beautiful city of Washington. Ii is prob
ably immodest to call attention to local
virtues. but once in a great while such .
proceeding Is almost excusable, and one of
those times would seem to be here right
now. when the broad-gauged business men are to
decide what shall be done as to the Grand En-
campment of the knights Of Pythias, to be
held in this city in the latter part of 1894.
The last grand encampment metat Kansas City.
and IL was there resolved that the assembly of
1894 should be at the National Capital, provided
that . sufficient sum OF money was guaranteed

the erection of the trolley on Pennsylvania

Georgetown railway could now carry passen-
