MESSAGE OF LOVE.

Introductory Sermon of the New Pas
tor of the NJ. p. Church.
Rev. J. w. Frank, the new pastor of
the Methodist Protestant church of
this city, preached his Introductory
sermon Sunday morning and greet
ed his congregation with the impor-
tant theme of Love-" taking as his
text, 1st John, AIS: "There is no
fear in love; but perfect love casteth
out fear: because fear hath torment.
He that feareth Is not made perfect
in love-"
The way along which every Chris
tian must travel is different from the
way the world travels. We travel the
narrow way; the world travels the
broad way. The Christian is govern
ed peculiarly. Love is the guiding
principle in the narrow way. We
should serve God, not from slavish
must practice self-denial, but Self-de
hearts.
1t is easier to bear the burden of
the cross than it is to bear the bur-
dens Of the world. The burden of sin
grows heavier, the burden of the cross
grows lighter.
At the end OF each way we must be
taken into the custody of God. The
roads seem widely divergent, but
eventually they cOnverge-at the day
of judgment. There will be a vast
difference then. Those of the world
will stand before the Great Judge
with fear and trembling, but not so
the Christian.
The preacher commented upon four
conditions of humanity. l. Profit
gates, who have neither fear nor love.
2. Those deeply awakened on account
Of sin, who have fear, but not love. 3
Babes in Christ, who have both fear
and love, and for whom there is hope.
4 Full grown men in Christ Jesus,
who serve God from love, without
fear. This is the class to which we
should aspire. Love for God should
be manifested by love for our fellow
creatures.
A distinction was drawn between
servile. slavish fear, and holy, rever
entail fear

DUN'S REVIEW.
r G Dun & Co. says: There is no
step backward in business, although
the season of midsummer quiet is
near. improvement continues, grad
ual and prudently cautious as before,
although in many branches evident,
where no sign OF it appeared a few
weeks ago business men Of the high
est standing 10 all parts of the country,
having gradually perceived that the
tide has begun to rise, are regulating
contracts and investments and their
plans for the future with a confidence
quite unknown to them a short time
ago. Great changes before the ad-
tournament OF Congress are hardly to
be expected, but removal of uncer-
tainty is with reason expected to
bring into operation buying forces
which have been restricted for months.
The main factor at this time is the
steadily Frightening prospect for
crops.

THE TROLLEY PARTY.

Caught In the Storm-An Elegant
Supper Served.
The trolley party, given Monday even
ing by Miss Ida Miller, complimentary
to her guest, Miss Nal Tabb, of Hamp-
ton, Va, proved a delightful social
event. There were 10 boys and girls
in the party-and it required two cars
to handle them.
They started from the West End
for the South Side pavilion about
O'Clock and returned after the storm.
The pavilion was beautifully decora.
ted and Illuminated with bright cleo
trio lights. The young people parti-
cipated in an informal dance, the
music being furnished by two mando-
lin and two guitar performers.
An elegant supper was served 1t
was prepared by Mr.. George Wink
Ter.
The storm came up while the happy
party was en- route home and the cars
were stopped on the Salem creek
bridge, where they remained for some
thing like an hour. The curtains of
the summer car were lowered, but
even then several of the young peo-
pie were caught by the blowing rain.
Notwithstanding the storm, the
young people were happy and appre-
ciate the delightful outing rendered
by Miss Miller.

MIR. John Holland Pursues Sus-
picious Character.
Mr.. John W. Holland, brother to
the late Mrs. A A. Springs who was
murdered by an unknown man in
Lexington, early Wednesday morning
of last week, is out looking. for the
guilty party. Tuesday mornings Regis
ter says he arrived in Danvil!e Sun
day afternoon following the trail Of a
man supposed to be the murderer.
The clew Mr.. Holland is following
was obtained on Friday from doc
tor, who reported having met man
between Lexington and Winston,
whose actions were suspicious With
this indefinite and meagre informa-
tion Mr.. Holland started out, and
from persons along the route traced
his fugitive as far north as Reidsville.
Persons who saw the man described
him as of medium build, and dwelt on
the nervous look and haunted look of
the man, who, as fearful Of pursuit.,
Often glanced SuspiciouSly to the rear
He gave different names to different
people along the route, which is an-
other link In the chain of circum-
stances going to Indicate that the
stranger Is the man wanted.
Before reaching ReidSville the
stranger inquired infinitely as to the
best route TO Danville, stating that
he had a relative near that city Ga
the strength of this information. Mr..
Holland decided to go on to Danville.
Late Monday night, the police
had discovered no trace of the
stranger, although one Of the officers
believes that he was seen on Crag-
head street Sunday afternoon. Two
residents Of that thoroughfare de-
scribed a stranger to this officer, the
description tallyiGg very closely with
that of the man wanted.
Mr.. 5 8. Williams, who arrived in
Winston Tuesday says there were no
further developments regarding the
murder when he left Lexington at
7:40 that morning.

He is to Succeed Deputy Galloway If
the Civil Service Fails.
The Senate Monday confirmed the
nomination of H. S. Harkins to be
collector of this revenue district. 1t
is expected that the new collector
will file his bond and take charge of
the office on Thursday, July 1st.
There are said to be several appli-
cants for the office here, in case the
civil service law does not retain the
present efficient and popular deputy.
The publicans who want the office
are rather perplexed over the civil
service law. They want to think
that the new collector will be able to
bounce every one of his deputies but
the present law appears to be against
such procedure
II the civil service does not hold
good, it is believed by many that
Brother John REYNOLDS will be Mr..
Galloway's successor.
Editor Ellis had charge of the office
during the Harrison administrations
and it is said that he would not OBJ
ject to the same office under the Nc
Kinley administration.
Were 1t not for the civil service
puzzle, there would be a little army
of candidates ia the race for the
Office.
