HENRY VARLEY
SPEAKS ON FAITH.
Large Congregation in First Baptist
Church.
Examples From the Lif. of the Prophe
Elijah.

Henry Varley's Bible talk on Faith
church was listened to by large audi
ence. He used the various examples fur
nished by the life of the prophet Elijah
to illustrate the ubjeot Of his discourse.
He referred To the time when Elijah was a
great prophet among his people and the
most prominent man Of all, having great
power and influence and practically con-
trolling his people God prepared him in
secluson for his great public work
aud the test Of his faith, his great trial
came when God commanded him to give
mp sll his power and influence over tho
people. TO tear down the great name he
hsd made for himself, TO cut himself off
from the world and 20 to dwell bv the
side OF the brook Cherith. But his faith
was unfaltering and never wavered, he
left ali his great work and obcyed tho
srmmons. His faith was tested still more
when God commanded the ravens To feed
him. If he had stopped To reason he
would have felt that tnis was impossi hle
but he never doubted the promise of God
But when tha brook dried up ANA he was
tidden to 70 and be fed Ivy the poor woman
who had Just enough meal TO nako one
cake for herself and die. this was tho
supreme test of his faith, his trust In God
and deman3od unbounued faith. Later
his faith was made manifest when hr
went out on tho mountain and mgde nm
altar and called on God Tn bring Hra
down upon it, aud God did so through
his flith.
Then when be had lost bis faith how
utterly miserable he was So that he went
out and sat under u junircr tree and
asked God that no might die and escape
his misery. All these things were the
education God wished 10 give him

the new state flag which Gov. Dyer
labored so long and hard To secure. The
flag was executed in very artistic man
ner, being in water colors on white SILK,
the stars ard anchor being in gold. the
shield in blue ana the word Hope In
black. IL Is an exact copy OF the original
now in possession of the governor.
The flag was in n handsome gold frame
and was presented to Mr.. Deyine on
behalf of the old Guard II humane Society
of which he Is president, and tine COVER
nor an honorary momber. Later the
society accepted the same and it was
decided that IL would be the proper
thing To present the same to the governor.
Col. II. Anthony Dyer was consulted
and be was heartily in favor Of the pros
pect, so at o'clock last evening the mem
bers of the society called on the governor.
They were escorted into the dining
room, and when the governor entered the
room Timothy +. Dwyer. in behalf of the
society, presented him with the artistic
souvenir. a pretty feature of the affair
occurred as Mr.. Dwyer was about TO con-
clude the presentation speech. Martha
Washington and Isabella Devine, who are
little more than babies came into the
room bearing the flag. This was by re-
quest of the sister who painted the flag
ernor took the flag very gracionsly from
the little tots and after, responding felicl-
ously, invited the gathering into the
studio of his son, where nalf an hour
was spent in examining curiosities which
had been gathered by young Mr. Dyer
from all parts of the globe
The gathering was an informal one. j.
H. Cooke gave a number OF humorous se-
lections, as did Col. Dyer. Prof. Hans
Schneider presided at the piano aud
played several popular selections. a col
latton was served, after which cigars were
enjoyed. Among those present other than
members of the society were Secretary of
State Charles II. Bennett Sheriff Hunter
&. White ana Alderman ID. Il. Mccarthy.
Mr.. Devine, who was the prime mover
in tho pleasant affair, has on many occa-
sions riskcd his life TO save those of
others. and has been presented with a
mum ber Of gold aud silver medals for his
heroic Efforts flo is and has been for
many years a mem ber of Hose Co. l3. of
