GREEhEILLE MYSTERY

About thirty chattering young ladies',
ranging from fifteen to twenty-five years,
filed into the meeting room of the Green

evident, however. that something of i'm

walls never heard before.
But more than the walls heard it. Five

the male class in session outside ven-

MEETINGS LACK FIRE.
There Seems to BE Less Enthusiasm
al Ocean Grove Camp.
Npeefalte the Jersep en- wees.


OCEAN GROVE, Aug. %, 1s96.-The
sixth day OF the camp-neeting yesterday
was unusually interesting. and the fear
that the services would not be as in
structive as formerly has, in a measure,
been dispelled. It cannot be said, how
ever, that the meetings contain the fire
and enthusiasm Of the days when the
people worshiped in the old Auditorium,
which was torn down to make room for
the present magnificent building.
All the meetings were demonstrative
of praise, and especially at the Auditori-
UNI, whore the greatest difficulty has been
felt in holding large congregations from
the opening to the close of any service.
People nave been in the habit of drop
ping in to enjoy the song service which
precedes he sermons. and then as the
preacher rises to his discourse
out they go by dozens, to the annoyance
of DR.. Stokes, and the confusion of all
who wish to near the text and sermon.
Exclrsionists are very t~houghtIess in this
particular. They are merely looking
about, and when they think Of a waiting
train whole parties Of them wriggIe out
of the seats they occupy near the front
and hastily disappear, although they may
have an hour or two of tiresome sus-
pense at the depot.
At the morning service prayer was of
fered by the Rev. John Benson, d. D..
of Philadelphia. The preacher was the
Rev. J.. r. Boyle. d. D., of Trenton. He
chose as his tex but they that wait
they shall mount up with wings as eagles:
they shall run and not be weary, n
they sha walk and not faint"
He said in part.-The conditions on
which this spiritual reinforcement Is CIV
en- to the faithful followers of the Lamb
include, first OF all, conformity to God.
We must be reconciled TO our Maker, and
live in harmony with His viii. We must
we shall enjoy the blessed reward. Sub
mission is also requisite in the fulfillment
OF these conditions. This gives us re-
pose Of soul Ia His character and worth.
Again, we must possess the spirit of de-
votion to God. We must wait upon Him.
Through all the trials and difficulties of
life We must remain steadfast i we

The Rev. s. ". Gwillyn, a Baptist min
lister, OF Brooklyn. preached at 3 o'clock.
24-25. The sermon contained many
thoughts and lessons of Christian life.

ed daughter. After describing the scene
and expounding the different truths rom
tanned in the narrative he drew the one
great lesson that in all trials and diff
culties in life we should learn to trust
in and wait patiently upon the Lord, as
sured that He will always in His time
and way hear and answer our believing,
earnest prayer. He closed with an APP
peal to Christian parents to bring their
children to God and also &c the uneon-

ready to receive them and to forgive them
of all sin.
