4 Modern
Lazarus.

Inherited blood diseases are much
more difficult to cure than those which
are acquired. One of the most common
hereditary diseases rs Scrofula, WATCH
the medical profession admit IS most
obstinate and deepseated, and their eff
forts to cure it meet with little success
A child afflicted with Scrofu1a is always
puay and sickly, and can never grow
into healthy manhood until the disease
is eliminated. Scrofu1a leads into con-
sumption nine times out of ten, so that
it is important for this reason that i'm
mediate attention be given to all chill
dren who inherit the slightest faint.
Mrs. S. S. Mabry, $50 Elan St, Macon,
Ca, writes:
''AIy boy, Charlie, inherited a scrofu-
1ous blood faint, and from infancy was
covered with terrible sores, his suHerngs
being such that it was impossible TO
dress him for three years.

AT The TENT.
A Very Large Crowd Present Yes
tsrday Morning.

The largest crowd yet assembled at the
morning services greeted DIR. White yes
terday morning mt the big Baptist tent.
After short song service DR., White
took charge of the meeting and announced
as his subject strbe Time Of the Second
Coming Of Christi
Before the sermon DR.. Broughton de.
lvered an earnest prayer for the city Off
GERS aud some unknown person who It
was reported had said he would get up u
petition to stop the meetings.
DR.. White selected al his text Matthew
"a 36, "Of that day and hour knoweth no
man." The scripture establishes the fact
of the second coming of Christ and this
was one great theme OF the apostles.
When all gather around the communion
table we do this in remembrance of Him
and until He comes again. Death Is not
the coming of Christ. Paul tells us of
His second coming and at that time the
dead who died in Christ shall arise and
we who are alive shall be caught up in
the halo of glory and righteousness and
waited on high where the Father awaits
to welcome us.
The five greatest events and upon which
Christianity is founded are: The birth of
Christ, the death of Christ, Christ's resur-
rectlon, His ascension into Heaven and the
second coming OF Christ. These five great
events were prophesied years and years
before they came to pass and the Judean
shepherds as they gazed with awe and
admiration on the new star of the East
realized the beginning of these prophecies
which are yet TO be fulfilled.
From the first these events have sue.
ceedcd each other in regular order until
the ascension, when Christ left ns with
the glorious assurance that He would
come again and bespeaking our watchful-
ness lest we be uDprepared. When this
second coming will be no one can tell. but
this much is potent to all of us. that lie
is coming.
When we realize that Christ is surely
&C ming and His coming may he ut any
moment then our duty is to be ready TO
prepare ourselves for his reception.
DIR. White then made several PROPOSE
lions. which met with liberal response.
THE NIGHTS SERVICE.
Again last night the large tent was full
TO OVERLOOKING. 1t seemed thai yery one
was there-the Christian who came to
receive the blessing IF God; the youth
who came through idle curiosity, but was
stopped by the earnest pleadiDgs and
brought to realization Of his conditions
the don t.care who was there simply to
have somewhere to go: all were there
with all their different objects in coming,
hating and listening, wondering, think
ing.
The opening services were conducted by
Rev. L. j. Shipinan and Rev. Wm Luns-
ford, after which DIR. White took charge
OF the meeting and selected as basis for
his remarks, Kings. 40 "As thy ser.
want was busy here and there, he was
gone.n
AN honest legitimate business is nc
hindrance to the existence and growth of
Christian: but ID MN may become such
slave to his business that he sacrifices
all else 20 its furtherance, and in that
way when the final day of Judgment
comes his only excuse will be as the text.

-Four Republican Senators Will Fight the
Big Trusts.

O'Clock, and three propositions only were
under consideration. These were the
questions of what TO TO with the Ha.
waliar reciprocity treaty. the advisabi.iJy
of giving bounty on beet sugar and the
question of an antitrust amendment.
The principal speech on the question of
the ACCESSIBILITY of au anti trust amend
ment affecting the entire tariff bill was
made by Senator Carter, of Montana, who
moved that the subject be referred to the
Republican members of the Judiciary
committee, with instructions to investi
gate the question with the view of decid-
ing what action would be taken to limit
trusts within the bounds of federal legis.
lation
Mr.. Carter urged the party in very
strong terms to take hold of the trust
question Mt the present time, saying it
was going to be without doubt the impor-
tant question of the future. He expressed
the opinion that both the tart IF and the
finances would soon he .subordinated to
that of trusts. There was no division ON
Mr.. Carter's proposition to refer the mat.
ter to the judiciary committee 1t was
the understanding that an early report
would be made to the Republican caucus.
Senator Pettigrew to-day received as.
surances from Senators Nelson, Carter
and Hansbrough that they will support
his amendment to the tariff bill. placing
on the free list all articles of nnnufac.
ture which in this country are controlled
by n trust. These Senators are Republi.
cans. Their votes will secure the adop
ton of the amendment.
