POWER OF THE GOSPEL
EVANGELIST WRIGHT AT THE
OPERA HOUSE.
He breaches Two Powerful Sermons
Services Every Night During the
Month-Fine Music.

|
Month-Fine Music.
The protracted meeting, under the
opened at the Opera House Sunday
with two able and convincing sermons
by Evangelist Wright.
Both services were largely attended
and the audiences heard the Word of
God expounded with intense interest.
The music is one of the pleasing
features of the services. MIR. and
Mrs. j. Fl. Fillmore are the leaders
and their singing is both beautiful
and inspiring.
Evangelist Wright announced last
evening that it was their purpose to
hold gospel services in the Opera
House during the month Of July. He
extended an invitation to Christians
of all denominations to assist in the
work. He said that a question box
would be placed at the front
door of the hall and that anybody
who wished to ask question regard
ing the way of salvation could write
the question or questions on piece
of paper and drop them in the box.
These questions will be answered from
night to night.
The sermon each night will be pre-
ceeded by a song and prayer service.
Last evening Mr.. Fillmore sang a
touching solo entitled ''Your Mother
is Praying for You" He and Mrs.
Fillmore (who is organist) sang
beautiful duet-'Ashamed Of Jesus"
''The power Of the Gospel" was the
subject Of the Evangelist's splendid
sermon. He selected his text from
Romans ZIG: "For l am not asham-
ed Of the gospel of Christ: for it is the
power of God unto salvation to every
Que that believeth; to the Jew first,
and also to the Greek"
The Evangelist breaches with great
power and earneStneSs. He is a fluent
speaker, has strong voice and con-
vinces everybody that he is fine
Bible student. He compared ''our"
religion with those of Japan, China
and other foreign countries. His ar
gument in favor of the religion as
taught in the Word of God was both
persuasive and convincing.

For recovery from the effects of
too constant indoor work, worry,
over exertion of body or mind, and
for the general depressed state of
health that is SO apt to result from
sedentary life of hard work and
routine, Paine's celery compound is
the one strictly accurate relief.

out tissues, disposes the body to take
on new flesh, and rapidly clears the
system of the used-up elements that
clog its healthy working.

mickey
Prof Leo and His Audience.
prof" Julius E Mickey, of Salem,
lost fine opportunity for making a
reputation for himself Saturday
night.
He promised to make a wonderful
cure Tor make the attemptJ for Prof.
LeO-but he failed to keep his promise,
in consequence of which there was
disappointment all around.
Prof. Leo made a statement to the
effect that "Prof." Mickey made the
proposition himself to do the Grub
bling act" that night and he regretted
very much that his friend was not
present. He held a note in his hand
and showed it to several parties, in
which Mr.. Mickey said: "You must
excuse me tonight; / will not be on
hand" The cause of his absence was
not stated.
Prof. Leo made the cure "just the
same" Rufus Sloan, co.ored, was the
subject and he was in precarious
condition. Mr.. S. j. Lambe, for
whom Sloan has been working, on the
streets, testified that the colored man
been confined, with rheumatism, for
about three weeks; that a city physi-
failed to do the patient any good.
Mr.. Lambe advised Sloan to go to
Leo.
DR.. Hay examined the afflicted
darkey and testified to his bad condi-
tion. Sloan lay on the steps until he
was carried up on the stand by one of
Prof. Leo's colored musicians. He
was laid on the floor and it required
about 20 minutes for the cure to be
made.
Sloan, with the assistance Of Prof.
Leo, who held to his hands, got up
and went to walking to the delight of
the entire audience, white and colored.
Pratice improved the darkey in NOV
ing his legs. He made speech, say
ing: 81 thinks l will go and hear the
gospel preached tomorrow; certainly
has two good white friends in this
town" (meaning Prof. Leo and Mr..
Lambe)
"You are walking just the same"
YES" said Sloan land put good
meal Of victuals before me and I'll eat
'em just the same"
Sloan came to Winston from Con-
cord some three months ago. Mr..
Lambe said he was good worker. A
collection was taken up to aid the
cured man in buying some provisions,
etc. Prof. Leo, who made the cure
without charge, also contributed one
dollar.
A gentlemen who witnessed the
cure remarked that perhaps Prof.
Leo's curative powers lies in his hair
like SIMPSONS strength"
A crowd of colored people were talk
ing on the street Saturday. night when
one asked: what is Leo going to do
tonight?"
"Going to work on Mr.. Mickey"
was the reply.
Prof. Leo should transfer the title
of professor" to DR.. Hay. Mr..
Mickey is no longer entitled to any
hOnOrs.
