was appointed to 60 to a neigh,
boring village called Casterton, to
preach on the following Sabbath.
/ had never before spoken to the
people in public, only to bear my
testimony in our meetings. At
this time I was working for a
Methodist Preacher who lived in
the place where / was to preach.
During the week he heard of my
appointment and came to me and
told me I had better not go; "for,"
said he, 81 have been a preacher
for forty years and il you come
there, / will come and stand before
you and you cannot preach" This
troubled me very much and on the
Sabbath morning / asked two
sisters to go with me to help me
sing, which they did; and now the
time had about come for us to start
and none but those who have had
this experience can imagine my
feelings. l went to a secret spot
and poured out my soul in prayer
to God that he would assist me in
that duty as [ was going out in
His name in my weakness to try
to teach his holy laws. We ar
rived at the place and in the street
we sang a hymn and quite num-
Der of people gathered around, and
true to his word, the preacher was
there right in front of me, only
few feet distant, and / offered
veay sincere prayer to my heaven
ly father, that he would give me
his holy spirit that I might be
able to speak in his name the
words of eternal life. We then
sang again and I started to talk to
the people, and oh, the lovely in
faence that came over me, tongue
cannot describe! I spoke to the
people by the gifts and power of
the Holy Ghost, and it brought
words to my lips such as not only
gave me JOY, but surprised the
people; for number of them knew
me, and I heard some who did not
know me, ask "where that young
fellow was from ? and where he had
been educated?" And when they
were informed who / was and
where I was working, and that I
had no education, they we're sur
prised indeed. When I examined
my watch to see how long I had
been preaching, I was surprised to
find that I had talked one hour
and twenty minutes. The preacher
never uttered a single word to me
about religion, after that.

The reason why woman is afraid Of

But some women are constantly in such q

this unfortunate state of affairs Is usually
some functional arrangement; some distress

A YOUTHS EXPERIENCE.
Continued.

Continued.
It is needless to say that this
done our cause no good, but the
reverse. A young man who had
been to college to learn to preach,
joined with a number of others and
raised mob and they made us a
great deal of trouble in disturbing
our meetings, and as many other
such cases, our own folly causes us
lots of our trouble. On the follow
ing Christmas the Latter-day
Saints held their conference at the
town of Leicester, which was 80
miles from where we lived, and
bro. Bland, G. Morris and I started
on foot about 3 o'clock in the morn
ing of the day on which the
conference was to meet at 2 o'clock
in the afternoon, and we were all
strangers, none of us ever having
been there before.
In going along one Of the streets
/ saw two men at some distance
coming towards us. Although
there were number of people be-
tween them and us, the Spirit told
me that those two men were
Latter-day Saints. I said to my
companions, CHOSE two men COM
ing yonder," at the same time
pointing them out, "are our breth-
rem" They both laughed at me,
but l told them it was so. We
walked on until we met them face
to face and one of them held out
his hand and L held out mine and
we took each other by the hand.
He said 81 don't know who you
are or where you are from, but
one thing l do know, [ know you
are Latter-day Saints" I told
them l also knew they were when
/ first saw them. The brethren
with me and the brother with him
wanted us to tell them how we
knew, as we had never seen each
other? We answered eve could
only say that the spirit told us
such was the case. We stayed
there two days and attended all the
meetings and partook of the spirit
there made manifest and it was a
feast in very deed to me.
Soon after this / was ordained to
the office of Priest and on Tues
day evenings we held out priest

Georgia's Brilliant Young Orator Enter
tains q Dawson Audience.


Last Friday evening Mr.. L. L. Knight,
Georgia's most brilliant young orator,
and a member of the editorial staff of
the Atlanta Constitution, entertained,
delighted and charmed one of the most
cultured audiences that has assembled in
Dawson for some time with his magniti-
cent lecture on woman. Mr.. Knight was
no stranger to the Dawson people, as he
has charmed them for years with his writ
ings In the Constitution IN both prose and
poetry, and though his fame had pre-.
coded him and the people expected a
rare treat they were not at all disap-
pointed. 1t was lis first effort as a plat
form lecturer, but he handled his subject
with the skill and ease of a master; and
this is the more wonderful since We
learn that Mr.. Knight, until few weeks
ago. had no idea of delivering such a
lecture and finished it only last Thurs
day the day before his appearance in
Dawson.
His thoughts were beautiful, his man
ner of expressi on charming and elegant
and his diction superb. His period were
we'll rounded and his phrases choice.
while his wit and humor were of the
keenest and never failed to catch his
audience. AS masterpiece sof English,
embodying the purest and best thought
in the most choice language, his lecture
has never b en- excelled Dawson. A.
together, it was rare treat and one his
audience will :long remember with
pleasure.
We understand Mr.. Knight has in
course of preparation new lecture on
"The Devil and Tom Walker" We
know this will be rare, rich and racy,
with many a sandwitched moral. Should
he come this way with his new lecture
he can count on a good house.

INDIAN DOCTOR LOOTS DARBY.
A REWARD is OFFERED FOR HIS
CAPTURE.

Medicine Peddler Who Went AWAY with
Pocket Full of Dollars and Many
stolen Articles.
In this issue of THE NEWS Ephriam
Whitfield, well-known colored farmer
of near Graves Station, offers reward
of 800 for the arrest of one Joseph
Redwine alias James Tompkins.
Redwine is copper-colored ..individ-
ual, claiming to be three-fourths Indian,
who has been among the negroes in the
vicinity of Graves selling decoction he
represented as an Indian preparation.
One day last week the ''dOctor," as he
was called, suddenly disappeared and
simultaneous with his disappearance
the absence of Whitields geld watch
was discovered.
Whitfield says the medicine peddler
went away full-handed, carrying with
him all of 5000 worth of booty thai he
had stolen from the negroes of the neigh
borhood. A number of confiding but
misguided darkies who esteemed it an
unusual privilege to entertain the ''medi-
cine man. are bewailing the l)ss of from
$500 to Sic 90 each in hard cash, while
others are minus jewelry and clothing.
1t is also said that the imposter sold
many bottles of his preparation, and
realized all of 500 from that source.
Redwine seems to be badly wanted by
his late friends, and should he, by any
chance, fail into their hands, a warm
reception would no doubt be given him.

George Sennart, At the time OF the col
lapse there were several customers and
10 workmen in Sennarts shop, Inc

crashed into the shop, burying every oc-
cupant The list of the dead and seri-
ously injured is as follows:
