There is too little preaching these days
| about hell" continued the preacher.
There's too little about it in the new
hymn books. I'm going to talk about
| it and I've got no excuse to make for it.
He'll is fixed and determined fact or
else Gods word is. a liar and heaven too
is IL myth. If there's no such place as
hell there's no such place as heaven.
They are both realities. You ask where
they are. That is none Of my business.
l simply know they exist. 1t has been
said that hell is anywhere outside OF
heaven. But hell is more than Danish
ment. 1t is a place of punishment. The
Bible represents it as a place of fire. The
only description that we have Of hell is
that little letter from Dives when he
lifted up his eyes and saw Lazarus in
Araham's bosom.
But somebody says. Are you fogy
enough to believe that hell Is a place Of
fire and brimstoneY Yes I'm fogy enough
to believe just what the Bible says. But
suppose it is only place of remorse.
flashing conscience, a burning sense of
guilt? That would be terrible enough,
God knows. Have you ever been the
victim of II guilty conscience? If you
have then just think Of the pangs and
terrors of that experience, magnified a
thousand fold and haunting you through
out eternity-thrOugh the countless ages
yet to come.
We hear a great deal to-day about
insomnia. The drug stores are filled with
remedies for it. Do you know what
believe about it? Ninetcnths of the
insomnia of this modern time is a guilty
conscience. A clean conscience is the
best remedy / have ever known for
insomnia. Oh, this conscience. following
us through life, through eternity, haunt
ing us forever. How can you stand it
forever and forever? You wouldn't let
even your wife know what your CON
science is tonight. Let's clean it,
You're not happy. Nobody knows but
God now. but you'll have to tell 1T for
ever in hell. In eternity all secrets will
be revealed.
Hell is place Of eternal punishment.
There is Il certain sjckly sentiment that
makes people afraid 10 mention the very
name OF hell. But just as long as ever
lasting means everlasting and just az
long as eternity means eternity will
contend that there is no end to hell.

1.-The three Rs of religion are righte-
BUSINESS, reverence and remuneration"
Rev. J. NJ. Horner, Of Oxford. 1.-The
Churchman as COMMUNICATE was his
subject. He said:
He who becomes communicate,
thereby not only acknowledges the
brotherhood of man but the brotherhood
of God. He communes not only with his
fellow man, but with God. The union
of human with the divine is the object to
which this wrold is tending. The COM
plete history of man must start with unity
with God and end it unity with God.
To this oneness with God it is every
mans duty to strive. Live faithfully
the life God has given you and discharge
as best you can the duties of the position
to which He has called you, and the re-
ward will surely come: well done, thou
good and faithful servant
In closing the meeting the beautiful
st. Andrew Hymn was sung and Mr..
John III. Wood, the General Secretary of
the brotherhood, in summing up the dis
cussion Of the evening said he could not
do it better than by repeating the words
of that hymn.
1T is not a call from man; it is a call
from God.," he said.
Follow me, that is the invitation,
that is mans whole duty"
Mr.. r. Fl. Battle presided at this meet

Mr.. Jno. T.. Livingston, of whom it
was announced recently that his con-
nections with the Scaboard Air Line
had been served, returned to the city
last night from Nashville, where he
had been on business for that road. He
confirmed the announcement and said
that from now on his entire time would
be given to the Columbia. Newberry
and Laurcns railroad. which he has for
several years been serving efficiently.
When with the SeabOard Air Line he
still worked for the Columbia, New
berry and Laurcns railroad, which
after short trial he found would not
do. Hence he gave up the former to
devote his time to the lattcr.--Colum-

Hahn Needed.

The ground Is hard and dry, parched
and thirsty Tor showers Of rain upon
the tender vegetation, which, in some
places is beginning to languish. Just
a little while ago, SO to speak, the fishes
were crying out jam salts, so great was
the volume Of water running into the
streams from the oft repeated down
pour, and now humanity should be
grateful for moderate showers upon the
fields, gardens and highways. The
season is advancing aud wo nee the
gentle showers to cause the gcrmiua-
tion Of the seeds and the generous
growth of plants that we may enjoy
tho health-giving vegetable juices and
fruit acids, SO essential at this season.
Since penning the above, yesterday,
Il moderate shower of rain fell, much to
the delight of all. Tho air is now cool,
tho earth moist and the farmers and
gardncrs in our vicinage are breaking
the clods aud planting and rcplanting
seed. The shower was very much need
ed and for which we are truly grateful.

The Recent storms and Floods In the
sa.s.t West.
We rive place in this issue to the
2 latest news about tho storm--swept and
Hooded West. The accounts are per-
fectly heart.rending. While tho
Mississippi Valley and adjacent Sec
t'ons still suffer, u mighty deluge has
descended upon Guthrie, and u cyclone
upon Elreno, Okla. We clip the fol-
lowing extracts from. the Associated
Press items of the Register:
Elreno, Okla. April 2S.-For the first
time since the white man settled in the
Canadian Valley, twenty-nine years
ago, this mornings sun sent it's rays
over an Oklahoma sea. The final
storm and flood came as fitting eli
max to week of unusually heavy
rains and damaging floods.
a fiercs storm Saturday tore out
sewers an1 moved small buildings
Saturday at midnight q hurricane,
blowing forty-six miles an hour, drove
binding sheets of water through the
roofs of the poorly or already damaged
houses. People were driven in terror
to their storm cellars and caves and
spent the night in momentary expec-
tation of being borne away by storm or
food.
Sunday dawncd bright and clear.
but yesterday noon another delrge dc.
scended. BY + o'clock the rainfall
amounted to over five inches. A huge
black cloud was observed moving to-
ward the city from the west.
Then cries of "get under ground"
arose on all sides and the streets we're
soon filled with running, shouting peo-
pie, seeking cave or cellar. Stores and
homes were deserted and the people
huddled together awaiting the blow.
The centre of the storm passed over
southeastern corner of the town, strik-
ing the hills across the valley, wreck
ing all it touched.
Lightning struck the spirc of the
Presbyterian Church aud totally de-
stroyed it. The school house for col
ored children was struck at 3 o'clock in
the afternoon, the structure shattered
and about fifty pupils more Or less in
jured. Among the more badly injured
are: Eva Clauston, Bertha Turner,
Charles Water and Beulab Clauston.
The latter was paralyzed. Several
other houses were struck by lightning
but no one was killed. Further West
the lightning killed much stock. The
electric light wires went down and the
town was in darkness last night. Re-
ports from surrounding towns are men-
gre, as telegraph wires are down and
trains have all been stopped on account
of washouts. 1t is known, however,
that many homes have been washed
out in towns adjacent to Elreno and it
is feared many lives have been lost.
West OF here Frank Thompson and the
sixteen year old son OF Isham McGrif-
fin were drowned.
