Practical Church Charity.

40 Tue EulIOE VI ldE LINES.
On Sunday evening last a gentleman accosted
the pastor of the Ninth street corner Ninth and
D northeast Christrian church, telling him that
he was a Coxeyite; that he was a member of a
Christian church in Cleveland, Ohio, and also a
member of the Christian Endeavor Society of
the same church. He said he was willing TO
work, and told the pastor, Mr.. E B. Bagby that
If anyone needed a man to work to please give
him chance Mr.. Bagby came into the church
and told the Endeavor Society the circum-
stances.
The topic for the Endeavor meeting that night
was "How to Bear Burdens" and it was fit
ting time to help bear the burdens Of the unfortu
nate Coxeyites A collection was Immediately
taken up for him, and understand quite nice
little sum was realized This is what call
practical Christianity. No matter who calls for
aid from these people of the Ninth street
church, am told, is ever turned away, and
feel like repeating what is said in song in regard
TO a certain good, little church in New York city.
..God bless that little church around the
corner" May 1t continue to prosper and grow
in the future as in the past Respectfully,
