The Clones Concert Co." gave a
musical in Columbian Hall last Thurs
day evening. 1t was highly entertain
ing and greatly appreciated by large
audience. Mr.. Jones once lived at
Maryville and his sons attended COL
lege.
Mr.. Samuel Houston, 'oS, spent
two days with friends at New Market,
Jefferson County.
Miss Andrews, who is at present
taking Prof. COTS place in the depart.
ment Of modern languages, Is carrying
on that work most successfully. Re
Gently, she organized a class In con
versational German for students in the
advanced classes. Since then on the
afternoons that the class convenes, the
Library sounds like the halls of
Leipsic university, or like gay crowd
from the cabbage-clad hills of the Va
terland.

Miss Leila Perine, of the musica

Revival at Messy Greek.

The revival meeting in our church
at this place closed after two weeks
duration, on the first Sunday in March.
Bro. Thomas Sexton, the ''black-
smith" evangelist, was with me
throughout, and did all the preaching.
The results of the work on the church
and community were in every respect
highly gratifying. Fifty-one protested
or were renewed from their
backsliding,, and restored to the fel-
lowship of the chnrch. These were
mainly composed of adults of mature
age, very few children offender years
being among them.
There are many things that are
commoaly regarded as essential ele-
ments in soul winning that Bro. Sex
ton does not possess. He is not edu
Gated; he knows nothing of the teach
ings of our schools, and has little
knowledge of history and Of the worlds
literature. His speech is ungramati-
cal and he violates the laws of Ian
guage in almost every utterance. So,
if Paul could say, 81 come unto you,
not with the enticing words of mems
WISDOM" with much greater proprlety
can Sexton adopt the utterance. To
cultured ear his bad grammar is al
first exceedingly offensive. But despite
this, Sexton wins on you as he pro
ceeds with his discourse and, ere yot
are aware, he has you under the spell
of his influence and is carrying you
with him to the goal Of his discourse
He is one of the most effective speak
ers l have ever heard preach. Tit
elements Of his effectiveness are, first
his entire dependence on the Hol.
Spirit for utteranee and guidance.
His discourses, are unstudied; yet from
start to finish they are full of interest
They abound' in humor, anecdote, il
lustration and pathos, enabling hin
with master hand alternately to pla
on all the chords OF the heart, awaken
the thought, fix the attention an
move the soul. He speaks largel
from his own experience and confirm
the word he proclaims by his own e,
detrimental knowledge of its power
He tells the sinner that Jesus is d.
vine Savior and will save the worst {
sinners because he has saved him
He often refers to his own life Of Sill
bat always in evident humility an
shame, mingled with gratitude to Go
for his great mercy in saving hin
While his knowledge Of the Scripture
is limited, yet his expositions are a
ways eminently just and helpful. H
Is an untiring worker in meeting
) His soul seems on fire with zeal t,
the salvation of sinners, and he leav
no stone unturned to influence ar
move them to action. He is never
happy as when exhorting sinners
come to Christ or pointing the pen
i tent inquirer to him for salvation
: He is eminently safe in his counsel
: inquirers; he evinces no haste in &c
: ting them to make an avowal of the
= faith, but urges them to be fully pc
i suaded in their own hearts before tn
. make declaration of their faith.
