SUDDEN DEATHS.
HE, That Being Often Reproved,
Hardeneth His Neck, Etc.

HE, That Being Often Reproved,
Hardeneth His Neck, Etc.
Saturday night another tremendous
audience listened to another powerful
sermon by Sam Jones.
The text was Prov. xxx, i: "He,
that being often reproved hardeneth
his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed,
and that without remedy"
The bare announcement Of this text
is enough to bring all to their feet.
Who is the author of these fearful
words? The answer comes back, it is
the great God who made US all and
whose sleepless eye has overlooked us
all from our cradle to this time. To
whom does God address himself?
There are more than thousand souls
10 this audience tonight that can say,
God means me. Often rebuked and
called to a better life. There ought
to be a thousand persons on their
knees, crying for mercy and pardon.
More men have been suddenly swept
into the presence of God in the past
II months than in any twelve months
since the morning and evening were
the first day. Can scarcely pick up a
leading morning paper but what we
read of sudden deaths. Gods words
will be fulfilled, if He must sweep
whole nation into eternity in the
twinkling of an eye.
Sudden deaths have become so COM
mon we almost cease to notice them.
The number increases year after year,
just as gospel opportunities are given
to men. Want to reason with you
about this Daresay there will
be deaths in Winston in the next three
months that will stir the town from
center to circumference. He was
talking to men who had hardened
their necks to the gospel call, who will
go unprepared into the presence of
God.
Being often reproved. Not men
that said it. Not the church that
said it. But God said it and God will
bring His words to pass. You can
push the battle too far. Take warn
ing tonight.
The preacher administered a severe
reproOf to members of the choir that
had said they come to meetings like
they go to d circus Joined the choir
so they could have good seat. God
will put up with much. He is long
suffering God, but you can go too far.
Some of you have reached the boun-
Diary line. It's an awful thing to press
the battle on God Take warming to
night and flee from the wrath to come
and save your immortal soul.
1t is Tremendously awful thing to
die. 1t is tremendously more awful
to go suddenly into the presence of
God.
at the close of the service number
went forward and signifed purpose
to lead better life.

SECRECARY PAUL RESIGNS.
He Will Accept the Secretaryship Al
New Albany, Indiana.

General Secretary A. B. Paul, of
the Winston-Salem Young Mems
Christian Association, has resigned
to accept a call to the Secretaryship
Of the New Albany, Indiana, Associa-
tion.
The resignation is to take effect Cd
October 1st, but, at the request Of the
Board, Mr.. Pall will remain until
about October 10th, to assist in the
canvass for the prosecution OF the
work foT'the Association year, which
will begin on the 1st OF November.
The city of New Albany, Ind,
where Mr.. Paul has been asked to
locate, is a residence town of 80, 900
population, situated exactly across
the Ohio river from Louisville, KY,
and connected with it by rail and fer
ries. The Association there has a
property equipment valued at about
S35, 900, and gives the General Secre-
tary the assistance of an Assistant
Secretary, Physical Director and other
subordinates.
This is the third effort the Indiana
Association folks have made to get
Mr. Paul to join their ranks and this
time they have been successful. The
Secretary whom he will succeed has
been called to the Richmond, Va.
Association.

were discussed. Lawi Can you say
you never violated Gods law? You
can't stand before God on your own
merit Force of testimony! Since
the day we crossed the line of respon
sibility we have been writing testi-
mony on tue tablets of our hearts.
God makes US authors of every bit of
testimony by which we will be judged.
1t is not what folks say you did. Ihe
indelible record is in your own hand.
There are scores of people in this
shown would never be seen on the
streets of the town again.
The sermon was interSperSed with
heavy blows at various viceS-Such
blows as only Sam Jones can give.
He took occasion to make another
whack at the Twin City Club.
Said he went TO the CLUB Saturday
and had a nice time. They are the
incest sort of fellows. He went into
the billiard room and the card room
and found buZZardS there. Went into
the neatest room and there wasn't any
thing there. The very fact that you
furnish loafing ground and buzzard
rooms suggests that it should be aba
ted. One said they didn't gamble. He
didn't believe they gambled. He
asked some of the legal fraternity
pTeScuU IL Guey pIdCUlCSu ID" WINE
they were at law school They said
no. See the point! Just pull out
your buzzard rooms and cards and I'll
jine you myself" Cards and billiards
don't help boys to lead better life.
If you are member, unjine. Quit
and turn your rooms over to the Y. M.
G A. and help save the boys.
During the sermon, Sam said if he
was Mayor he would discharge his
duty or resign. He said one police
man would do in the day time, but at
night he would have enough police
men to watch the bucks and when
they visited disreputable places he
would haye them put in the calaboose
and expose their meanness.
Finally. the preacher pointed to
pardon as the only way to escape from
the outraged law of God. To ease
the conscience and blot out the record,
the record must be bleached in the
blood Of Christ. Brother, right here
and now, seek the fountain that wipes
out the sinful record
At the close of the service, thous-
ands arose TO their feet in response to
the proposition: | stand and plead
that | may be washed in the blood of
the everlasting covenant.

A DEvOUT MAN.
One That Feared God With All of His
House.

Before announcing his text Monday
morning Mr.. Jones stated that three
of the drug stores had signed petit
tion to close their stores on Sunday.
He said that he would go to the fourth
one and ask him to sign.
Mr.. Jones also read the resolutions
passed by the 500 women, at Centena-
ry church, last night, asking the
Mayor and Aldermen to remove the
bar-rooms from the town at earliest
date possible.
ga devout man" was his subject,
selected from Acts x:1-2. "There was
a certain man in Cesarea called Cor
nelius, Centurian of the band called
the Italian band.
ga devout man, and one that feared
God with all his house, which gave
much aims to the people, and prayed
to God always"
Cornelius was devOut man. In
spiration tells US this about him-good,
jealous, noble-that covers the
ground. You can bank on him. There
is a time when we must settle this
question. No man was ever a
Christian by accident. The devout
Christian does not open his warehouse

it approaches the sinner. As it ap-
proaches the Christian Christ takes
out the fangs and the Christian can
look into the serpenL's mouth and
say: son, death where is thy sting:
oh, grave, where is thy victory?"
An incident OF boy riding a black
horse and being hurled to death was
related. Wish a thousand tonight
would say, i've ridden the black
horse the last time. I'll leap from
his back" May this be an hour of
triumph for the Saviour and the
right.
At the after-meeting number
came forward and gave the preacher
their hand, and later several desig-
mated the church they would join.

CONSCIENCE. RECORD, GOD"
Mr.. Jones Famous Sermon-Synopsis
of The Discourse.

of The Discourse.
Sunday morning Mr.. Jones
preached his famous sermon, "Con-
science, record, God"
After reading some verses of scrip
ture, he took as his text: what /
have written have written" from
John XIX, %.
Conscience and record, like two in
dex fingers point to God. Conscience,
Record, God, and the final judgment.
1T is not all Of life to live, nor all OF
death to die" Conscience is the reign
of God in the soul-the court that
scrutinizes every act of life. Who has
not felt the pangs of an outraged con-
science? Something will not let you
sleep, will not let you eat, makes you
hang your head in guilt.
As truly as / have conscience, ]
have record. Deeds of life,
words of life, acts of life. Record is
as much part of me as my hand is a
part of my body. As long as the SOU
shall live the record will last. Con-
science and record pointing to the
great God. The Judgment day-tht
greatest day in the worlds history
The issues of that day will be eternal
When once arraigned for violation
of law, there are only three ways Of
escape-by law, by force of testimony
or by pardon. These ways were ap
piled to human courts, by the preach
er. Every pathway leads to the judg
ment seat of Christ. Well all b
there. No man can bride Gods CRANE

wELDLESs STEEL CHAINS.
A New Method Of Making Them lnvensst
m Germany.

A New Method Of Making Them Invented
m Germany.
Several months ago we described q
process Of making steel chains without
welding the metal to form the links.
A bar of steel having a cross section
like q Greek cross was fed through a
series Of punches, which took out bits
Of metal here and there systematically,
and left q cobb about % per cent.
stronger than the ordinary one. That
method was tried in birmingham, Eng.
land, with satisfactory results. and is
still in use. A new plan originating
with Herr Klatte, Of Neuwied. Ger.
many, was described at convention
Of iron manufacturers at Dortmun;: q
few weeks ago. This inventor takes a
bar rolled to . similar shape as at
Birmingham. and feeds it between two
carefully adjusted wheels driven by
gearing and having on their peripheries
cavities and projections corresponding
to the form OF link. The metal is hot
when thus manipulated. One squeeze
nearly completes the chain, but the lat.
ter has to 60 through two more opera,

Enamel the rest Of the stick and, when
dry, pass It under the zap Of the holder
and secure It to the back Of the pocket
with straps Of linen.
Finally, add the cord and tassels
across the top, which should agree with
the ball fringe in color. The make Of
this pocket Is SO simple that no
further explanation should be neces-
sary.

From Kharkov, In Russia, comes 4
story Of new cure for consumption BY
the inhalation of aniline, discovered by
DIR. Kremiansky, a professor in the
university. A girl Of thirteen, in the
last stages OF rapid consumption, was
brought to him last February. She
was treated with three preparations
used simultaneously. pure white ami
line. C6 rs (NH2l, . preparation Of
aniline and thenol, and one OF aniline
and essence Of pine. which she was
made to inhale deeply and slowly. At
first only 10 to 20 inhalations . day
were administered. but gradually they
were increased to 200. Under this
treatment and . special diet the child
is said to be now in perfect health.
