THE TENT MEETING.
DR.. Broughton breaches to Large and
Appreciative Audience.

Appreciative Audience.
The largest audience that has yet as.
sembled was present at the big Baptist
tent on Jefferson street last night to hear
DR.. l.. G. Broughton. Every available
seat was taken and all around the walls
of the tent and down the aisles people
who were unable to get seats were standing
and patiently stood, listening with rapt
attention to the minister as he delivered
his message.
He selected as his text part Of the
Goth verse of the third chapter of st. Mat
thew, one of those celebrated utterances
of John the Baptist: prepare Ye the
Way His sermon was more to the
church members, impressing them with
the fact that in order to get others in the
right course it was first necessary for
they themselves to get right. Prepare
We the way by preparing yourself. He
spoke of the slight things, things that are
of very small consequence apparently;
but sufficiently large to not allow room
in your heart for the spirit of Jesus
Christ, GOODNESS in religion and religious
work. He spoke of the various things
which cause GOODNESS and always result
ant upon not having the religion you
would have others possess.
He said "For must We get everything
else out of your heart before Jesus Chris5
can enter. Get sin out of your heart. fill
1t with the spirit of Jesus Christ, and
then you are ready for work in the great
field of labor to which every child of God
has been called.'
DR.. Broughton's sermon was plain and
to the point. He spike Of those things
which we all know and brought home
those uncomfortable facts ..of which we
sometimes try to be unconscious. He
teaches that the first duty of the meeting,
before it can be expected to accomplish
that end which is most earnestly desired,
it is necessary to expel all sin from the
hearts of those who propose to work and
become filled with the saving spirit in
Jesus Christ then and not until then, can
they hope to save others
At the conclusion of his discourse an
invitation was extended asking all who
would work would earnestly pray for the
salvation Of some one. to stand up and
great many responded. Another invita-
tion requesting all those who desired to
be saved to stand up, which was likewise
responded to very literally. The services
were concluded with prayer by Rev. VIM.
Lansford and the Doxology. The meet
ings are becoming very interesting and
are the largest attended of any meetings
ever held in the city. There will be SER
vices this evening again commencing
promptly Mt 8 o'clock.

RUMOR is DlSCREDlTED.
IL Was to the Effect That Superintcn-

The report that Division Superin-
tendent c. II. ManVille, of the Delaware
and Hudson company was about to re-
sign could not be verified last night.
The rumor was discredited by a we'll
posted official of the company, c. C.
Rose, who recently succeeded Superin-
tendent Vandlng of the coal depart
ment.
Mr.. ManVille resides at Carbondale
and made his headquarters in the Del
aware and Hudson building in this
city until recently. His offices are to
be occupied by freight solicitor Dick
son, recently appointed, and District
Passenger Agent Cross. The renova-
tions made in the office probably gave
rise to the rumor which included the
statement that the company had began

ductions in salaries.
