To the Editors of The Sentinel.
I can not refrain from dropping you
q line or two of endorsement of your
position on the whisky traffic. /
know of no paper SO open in it's ex-
pressions. Surely it means much to
have the press stand out so bold for
the cause of right. l know Winston
must appreciate your efforts.
Evangelist Lee seems to be doing a
splendid work. I can hear some OF
the old chaps grunt under some OF his
stingiug blows. How mad some OF
them must be getting about this time
Lee Is good match for the Devil,
Winston Is like Roanoke In many
things. The curse OF whisky controls
the city. Wherever "slate" Is made
up there must be cogitation with
the whisky devil The old soakers and
bummers absolutely control our city
politics while church members pray
long prayers and stay at home, an1
nurse their fallen boys. We want tC
get up arOusementS In right voting as
we'll as other things
Our city has for long time been
bOssed by the whiskey element and
ward politicians, who think more of a
free ride on the cars than Kidding the

other people. The good are only

other people. The good are only
tempted in a qualified sense. We are
never above temptation but we can
live above its power.
Temptations are limited; the way
of escape, and why we are tempted?"
These were the thoughts discussed.
Temptations are like the ocean, said
the Evangelist, as they have bound
ary. God knows how much burden
we can carry and He will not overload
US. He knows our weakness and in
frmities. He not only makes the
back for the burden but adjusts the
burden for the back. God knows all
about US. In the midst of the
storm he will come in and prevent all
danger. God says "thy faith is suffi
cient for thee" His grace is always
present. There Is no obstacle so great
but what God can help US overcome.
He will make the way of escape. As
the safety valve in the engine opens
when the engineer gets on too much
steam, so does our Heavenly father
open the way when we get in trouble
His loving hand Is ever on the safety
valve. Let us remember that God has
everything in His control and do
Gods will.
The Evangelist closed by urging his
hearers to get a stronger hold upon
God and faith in his protection.
Look up to God and depend upon
him for protection" said Mr.. Lee in
concluding his discourse.
After prayer by Rev. ". A. LutZ,
the congregation was dismissed. Sew
eral remained, however, for a short
prayer service.

Two White Men Charged With KILL
ing a Negro.
Messrs. E. B. Jones and A. E. Hol-
ton returned from Davie court Sep
tember 22d. From them it is learned
that rhos. Young and Dan Tucker,
hotn white, were tried Sept. 2lst and
&C quilted of the charge of killing, a
negro named Miles Cuthrell. The
murder occurred last spring.
This is the old negro who was found
dead in his cabin near Farmington
and supposed to have been murdered
for his money which he had concealed
somewhere about his house. The
evidence against the defendants was
all circumstantial.
Another murder trial was to be
taken up Sept 22d, of white man
named Owens charged with killing a
negro near Smith Grove, DaVie county,
about ten years ago.
The Phillips will case was post
poned until next court. Several Win
ston lawyers have been employed by
the defendants and plaintiff, Mr.C, A.
Hall) in this case 1t will be renem-
bered that Mr.. Phillips gave some OF
his estate to several churches.

A SUDDEN DEATH.
Mr.. Castor Cain, Who Was Shot Dul
ing the War.

MIR. CASTOR Cain, Who Was Shot Dur.
ing the War.
Editor Ellis, of the Republican, re-
turned last Thursday morning from
a business trip to Mocksyille.
From him 1t was learned that
a man named CASTOR Cain, aged
about so years, died suddenly In
Mocksville on the day before. He
was standing against the door facing
in the courthouse when he suddenly
fell to the floor, dying about an hour
afterward.
The physician that was called in to
see him thought the man ruptured a
blood vessel when he dropped on the
floor.
Mr.. Cain was resident of the upper
part of Davie county. He was a Con
federate soldier and during the war
received serious wound, being shot
through the back of the head, the
ball coming out OF one cheek The
wound never healed and some think
this produced his death.

Would be Unwfse.

DR.. r. FL. Lewis, Secretary OF the
State Board of Health, writes Cover
nor Russell that in his opinion 1t
would be extremely unwise to. throw
open the mountain plateau of western
North Carolina to yellow fever re-
fugees;the trouble being that it would
be practically impossible to detain re-
fugees there long enough to prove
they were not infected and hence be a
distinct risk of gong to certain local
tiles susceptible to the disease, nota-
bly, Wilmington. 1t Is safe to say the
mountains will not be thrown open

tsMr. Barnes went to Winston at the

asked for the paper be was handed a
letter to Auditor Aver. In this epistle
to the Auditor the Stewards stated
that their attorney was absent and
that they could not act in bis absence.
It would not appear that the exprint-

without fight.

WHAT SHALL 1T PROFIT2
Another Powerful Sermon by Evan
gelist Lee.

another FOWer1uA sermon Dy Evan
gelist Lee.
Notwithstanding the cold wave, a
large crowd heard Evangelist Lee
preach with great power and earnest
week.
Three or four people made profess
sion at the after meeting. The Evan
gelist preached from the following
text:
what shall it profit a man II he
shall gain the whole world and lose
his own soul? ? Or what shall a man
give in exchange for his soul?"-Mark
1886 81.
He made three divisions of the text
as follows: "The Soul" "The value
of the soul" and Goods unanswered
questions" He said:
THE SOUL.
The soul is that immortal part of
our being, that distinguishes US from
the brute creation, and which bears
sume resemblance to the Divine. The
soul in q measure Is the counterpart
OF God, for God breathed into the
first man, Adam, the breath of life,
and he became living soul, imperish-
able and immortal. The soul stands
for life; it is mans real self, therefore
for man to lose his soul, is to lose
himself. The soul is the works; the
body is the case of the watch.
The soul has wonderful capacities
for gladness and grief and for pleas
ure and pain.
1t is the source of reason and re-
search; of aspiration and ambitions;
hope and happiness.
With the soul we commune with
God, we enjoy fellowship with God, in
measure, we comprehend God.
THE VALUE OF THE SOUL
The souls true value cannot he es-
timated, because OF its Immortality
and unlimited capacities.
We can only compute its value by
considering what 1t cost to redeem 1t.
Nothing less than the priceless
precious blood Of Christ was sufficient
are not redeemed with corruptible
Who can tell the real value OF a
soul 3?
GODS UNANSWERED QUESTION.
"What shall it profit a man, etc ?'
"What shall man give in exchange,
etc?"
These questions are of the most
| vital Importance; and should he Sc.
riously and carefully considered by
every man.
| The first appeals to the man that is
bent on making money and amassinR
wealth, and supposing that he real
ICES his highest mbition.
| The latter question would describe
the condition of a man, who had solo
his soul to the devil while he lived
but 10 the world of dark despair, hi:

tantalizes him by asking: "Whal
would you now give In exchange fol

which you bartered your soul for tn,

Riches cannot still his troubled con
