HOLDING SEPARATE SERVICES.

HOLDING SEPARATE SERVICES.
The Jackson Street Baptist church is
holding a special week of prayer. Last
night Edward Howell was in charge
of the meeting. The basement of the
church was filled, every seat being
taken At the first meeting of the Sc
ries held Monday night Mr.. DeGruChy
preached a sermon ON The Needs of
the Holy Spirit. During his remarks
MIR. DeGruchy said
when we read the book of the Acts,
the beginning of the Christian era, the
wonderful achievements it brought
about, we are somewhat amazed at
the present condition of the church
We see no such a thing taking place
today and wonder if it is possible in
the present century to again behold
such mighty results. AS for me, be-
lieVe the same things are possible to
the church of today. Let the church
fulfil known conditions and comply
with them and the blessings of the past
will be the blessing of the present,
God is the same today, yesterday and
forever, and no promise was made to
the primitive church that we cannot
claim or receive.
The great trouble is our lack of COM
pliance to conditions which are a ne
cessity to the reception of the blessings.
Let us return to primitive methods.
Prayer and communion with God
brought from heaven the power needed
to do effective work. The Holy Spirit
brought the power of Pentecost% And
those that received it We're not the
same as before it transformed their
lives: they We're men of power and
equal to the very obstacle in the way;
they had firm grasp of the truth, the
Holy Spirit came to them in much as
surance. Let us comply with condi-
tions and we will receive the blessing.

THE WHEELMEN.
Proceedings at the Capital City Club
Last Evening.

The Capital City Wheelmen last ev-
ening elected four new members, re-
ceived propositions for seven more, and
received excellent reports from its
Wheelway Committee, showing the
progress of work in pushing the wheel
ways. But the complaint was made
that the collections come in too slowly.
1t was reported by the same committee
that a contract had been let for the
immediate construction of a path in the
much complained of link from Brighton
Junction to Perkins station.
The club rescinded it's order eXclud-
ing the Examiner" from the club
rooms; received and accepted the resig-
nation of Captain Roundey from his
office, because change in business du-
ties and residence preclude his Serv-
ing, and appointed committee of five
to nominate to the club a week hence
names to be voted on for the captaincy.
Deep regret was expressed that Cap
tain Rountley had resigned, his admin
istration having been of great benefit
to the club.
The club considered in free debate
the action of its delegates to the Asso-
ciated Cyclers' organization. relative
to that body taking charge of racing in
terests in this State, but no orders We're
made. 1t was generally understood
that the club will stand by the action
of it's representatives in the association.
but will await the arrival of the new
articles of organization relative to rae
ing events before making any definite
expression on the subject.

Support of Publishers.

A new advertising agency, of which
Ellis F. Draper is the head, has been
organized in this city. 1t will be called

at it's offices in Temple Court.
When THE Newspaper Maker an
nounced exclusively two weeks ago
that Ellis F. Draper had resigned his
connection with the George P. Rowell
Advertising Company, his friends, with
one accord, extended their congratula-
lions and urged him to start in bust
ness for himself Such a project was
not new to him. 1t was in accordance
with his ambition and purpose; hence
the new agency was formed.
The new agency is located at 301,
302 and 303 Temple Court corner of
Beekman and Nassau streets 1t will
be fully equipped with a competent
force of clerks experienced in the bust
ness. Already the business under con-
tract exceeds 100000. The principal
clients at present are the Erie Medical
Company of Buffalo, and the Radam
Microbe Killer of New York. Other
clients will be added from time to time
as the facilities of the agency will per-
NIT
The agency starts with abundant
capital. One of it's special features will
be the prompt payment of bills. 1t is
Mr.. Diapers intention to devote his
personal attention to the management
of the business and to render such
service to his clients and the newspa-
pers as will place his agency in the
front rank.-The Newspaper Maker.
