the shorei The strewing of the great host
on the bottom of the sea, or pitched by
the angry waves on the beach-a battered,
bruised and loathsome wreck! suddenly
destruction came. one half-hOur before
they could not have believed it. Destroyed;
and without remedy.
j am just setting forth a fact. which
you have noticed as wei as l. Anantas
comes to the apostle. The apostle says:
Did you sell the land for so much?' He
says, ~ es. 1t was lie. Dead! as quick
as thati Sapphire, his wife, comes in.
Did you sell the land for so much2"
YES" 1t was a lie. and quick as that she
was deadi Gods judgments are upon those
who despise him and defy him. They come
suddenly.
The destroying angel went through
Egypt. DO you suppose that any OF the
people knew that ne was coming? Did
they hear the flap of his great wing? No!
No! suddenly, unexpectedly he came.
Skilled sportsmen do not like to shoot
a bird standing on sprig near by. If they
are skilled, they pride themselves on TAX
ing it on the wing; and they wait till it
starts. Death is an old sportsman, and he
loves TO take men flying under the very
sun. He loves to take them on the wing.
Oh! flee to God this night! If there be one
in this presence who has wandered far
away from Christ, though he may not have
heard the call of the Gospel for many
year, l invite him now TO come and be
saved. Flee from thy SIM Flee to the
stronghold of the Gospel Now is the &C
cepted time; now is the day of salvation.
Goodnight, my young friends! may you
have rosy sleep, guarded by him who never
slumbers! May you awake in the morning
strong and WE'LL But oh! art thou a des-
piser of God2 Is this thy last night on
earth? Shoud'st thou be awakened in
the night by something, thou knowest not
what, and there be shadows floating in the
room, and a handwriting on the wall, and
you feel that your last nour is come, and
there he a fainting al the heart, and tre-
NOR in the limb, and a catching of the
breath-then thy doom would be but an
echo of the words of the text: I'm that
night was Belshazzar. the king of the
Chaldeans slain"
Oh! that my Lord Jesus would now
make himself so attractive to your souls
that you cannot resist him; and If you
have never prayed before. or have not
prayed since those days when you knelt
down at your mothers knee, then that to-
night you might pray, saying;
Just as 1 am, without one plea
But that thy blood was shed for me,
And that thou bidst me come to thee,
o Lamb of God. l come!
But if you cannot think of so long a
prayer as that, l will give you a shorter
prayer that you can say: God be merciful
TO me- sinner!' Or, if you cannot think
of so long a prayer as that, / will give
you a still shorter one that you may ut
ter Lord save me, or l perishr or, if
that be too long a prayer you need not
make it. Use the word "Helpi" Or, if that

word at all. Just look and livei

CAROLINA's CONVENTION.
The Delegates just Half Through
After Two Months Work.

After Two Months Work.
Columbia. S. c.. Nov. 10-The constitu-
tional convention after two months solid
work, not including the time allowed for
recesses is now exactly half through with
its work so far as articles adopted are
concerned, eight out of the sixteen arti-
cles proposed having been accepted and
sent beyond the control of the conven-
ton. In reality, however, the work is con
siderably further advanced, providing no
big fights are made when several of the
articles that have almost gotten through
their second reading come up for a final
reading. Judging from the fight that has
been made on the final reading of the ar
ticle on jurisprudence. il looks as if the
final readings of all the remaining arti-
cleS are TO cause considerable time to be
consumed. There are four of the remain
ing articles which have not been even
taken up for a second reading yet. The
others have had certain sections consid-
cred, but that was all.
The great fight of the week just past,
was on the suffrage scheme. The most sig
nificant feature of the tedious, vet in
tensely interesting fight over it was the
effort of Senator Tillman on the final
reading to have the provision for bi-Dar-
usan election managers nut in
The debate that ensued made some of
me most interesting pages of South
Carolinas history, and Will doubtless he

exception of this bipartisan board feat

practically as outlined by Senator Till
man at the Hunters Ferry meeting last
summer 1t is needless to recount Tho
provisions or the features of the article
or TO analyze the movements by which
II was placed into the fundamental law
Of the state.
The conservative lawyers on the com
mlttee argued ably on the constitution

nave much trouble TO convince, for once

sound as q free silver dollar

PRICES FIXED BY A TRUST.
Standard Oil Company Will Ignore
the Petroleum Exchanges.

PITTSBURG, Jan. 23.-The Standard Oil
Company has created a sensation by de-
claring that, hereafter, it will fix the daily
price of petroleum, regardless of quota
lions on the oil exchanges. Joseph Seep, the
principal buyer for the National Transit
Company and the Standard Oil Company
has issued the following notice to buyers:
1.-The small amount of dealing in certifi-
cate oil on the exchanges renders the trans
actions there longer reliable indication
of the value of the product. This necessi-
tates a change in my custom of buying
credit balances. Hereafter in all such pur-
chases the price paid will be great as
the markets of the world will justify, but
will not, necessarily, be the price
bid on rhe exchanges for certificate oil.
Daily quotations will be furnished you from
this Office
The opening quotation on the Oil City
Exchange yesterday 971s cents, but the
Standard fixed the price at 80 cents As
soon as this became known the price on
the exchange went up to 1915. The action
of the Standard caused considerable ex-
element In this city and there were many
opinions expressed as to the effect il would
have on the market. A meeting of the in
dependent oil producers has been called for
tomorrow at Butler, Pa. to consider and
discuss the situation and outlook of the oil
business generally and IL il probable that at
this meeting the recent action Of the Stand
ard will be talked over and a policy for
the Independent producers outlined
