PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.
F. f. MOORE Pastor.

In the absence Of the Pastor, Prof.
IS. I. Wilson was engaged to occupy
the pulpi. last Sabbath, but he is sorey
afflicted with boils, until he was dis
abled. Rev. Robert A. Bartlett,
now settled at Kingston, Indiana,
but one OF our own men, being here
on VISIT kindly took the place and
preached forcible and very practi-
cal sermon, both morning and eve
ming. He also lectured in the Col
lege Chapel in the afternoon. His
subject in the evening was Drifting"
He made no efforts at oratory or un-
usul attractions, but drove straight and
strong at practical life. 1t requires
no effort to drift, man is not made to
drift. A log or stubble or the refuse
along the bank of stream drifts with
the current. Nothing is accomplished
by drifting. 1t takes the strong arm
and the power of the muscles to row
up stream, but Heaven is up, while
the eataracts and destruction are
down, the stream. Drifting easily
and smoothely down stream is pleas
ant and when we fall into drifting
we glide along taking our ease and
fail TO realize any danger until we are
into the rapids, and then it is too late.
There are many currents into which
we can drift, business, social, politi-
cal, and.even theological, all away
from God. Men become absorbed
in business, resort to dishonorable
and oppressive measures in order to
succeed. Oothers are absorbed in
social life giving themselves entirely
to pleasure. Others engage in poll
tics, and resor. to any and all methods,
to even calling forreinforcements from
the powers below and the worst ele-
ments on earth in order to have their
party succeed. Still others, in theolo-
gy, desire to climate from the Bible
all passages not according to then
ideas, and to make such changes
in Gods word as will leave them a,
ease as they drift carelessly down the
stream, all these drifting away from
God and His truth, and down to ruin.
There is not single character in al
the Bible, where any one accomplish.
ed any thing or gained victory by
drifting. The history Of the wore
does not record the achievement O
any one gained by drifting.

his way to Jonesboro, where Oh

Sennte.-The entire forenoon was cc-
cupied in the discussion OF H II. 1po,
concerning church taxation. An ad-
verse report by the finance committee
was as follows:
The finance committee recommends
that the bill be indefinitely postponed
for the reason that in the present imam
cial condition OF the state its enact
ment into a law would close the doors
OF several important institutions OF
learning. which are engaged In the
higher education OF the youth of the
state; and further. that II Is not for
the promotion OF the welfare to op-
press by taxation institutions whose ef-
forts are directed toward the promo
ton OF knowledge and virtue, and the
highest good OF the race.
