Besides being pastor of the Tabernacle

executive committee of the board of trIls-

All organized living things, whether De-
longing to the animal or vegetable KING
dom contain within themselves the germs
of death and decay.
Germs of disease are often generated
within the human system through inper-
feet digestion of food, producing various

The over distended stomach presses upon
the heart and the latter organ IS also DIS

firesides of our homes. But while Dr.
Simms said that there are evils in the
homes of that congregation he declared
The greatest peril is not from the
homes of the poor members of the Baptist
Tabernacle, but from the homes of the
society people Of this city, people who
are leaders in thought and enterprises
and muulders of public opinion. There
it is that the first lessons in gambling
are given and the contest for the first
prize and the BOBBY prize renders the
excitement of the gambling table fascinat-
ing. and, gambling is being taught in
these homes. You may talk about gam
bling hells and dives and black legs, but
you need to have your eyes opened to
these nurseries of the gambling rooms.
the legs that need to be hunted up are
in the homes Of the leaders in society.
IT'S there the young men are taught TO
drink and the fair hand of young lady
presses the first cup to the trembling lips
of the young man."
The current of dishonesty starts in the
homes When the child sees father and
mother doing wrong and chuckling over
it, the child naturally considers it smart,
and the seeds of degradation and ruin
ter building is being neglected in the
home for money-making. 4 strong char
acter must underly all true lives and a
neglect of this foundation will draw the
lines of pain and suffering upon the par
entS' wrinkled brow.
'fHow many young men of strong. clear
cut moral character do you know in
Raleigh? If any of you know more such
men than you can count ON your two
hands hold them up" Not hand went
up and DR.. Simms said that this showed a
most lamentable condition in this city.
DIR. Simms referred to the low estimate
placed upon, life in business. Trade does
not stop to count the value OF Il human
life. Long business hours are grinding,
grating and robbing the strength of young
men and young women. ! can count
young women who were fair and rosy
six years ago when l came here, but are
now faded and pale, and young men who
were strong and hearty but now appear
to be without strength and almost with
out hope. Their lives are being sacrificed
on the relentless altar OF trade. Women
working from in the morning to IL al
night and young men who should be IN
bed at 8 O'clock kept at their work until
IL and II o'clock. because men are rush
ing after trade unmindful of the human
life sacrificed, while God has placed the
highest premium on human life"
While heartily endorsing and approving
the building and maintenance of charit-
able institutions, such as homes of old
men and women and orphans, DR.. Simms
said that they were really the drip pans
under the furnace Of sin. they are bone
yards, where we dump the leavings OF
our cruel life. While you should labor
for these institutions with one hand you
should strive with the other to put out
the furnaces of sin. the saloon, the gam
bling holes, and the places of degrade
ton. and open to them the inviting door
to the paths of peace and JOY. When
humanity cries heaven opens, for God
holds the sacredness of human life above
the things Of this world.

The text for the evening was from
Matthew, goth chapter and 33rd verse,

In discussing the theme DIR. Simms
said that there We're three kinds of
blindness referred to in the gospels.
First, physical blindness, which was
very common in Palestine when the Sa-
viour was on earth.
Second, there is judicial blindness.
Third, is spiritual blindness. which is
the condition of all the unregenerate.
They are blind to their helplessness and
to Christ as their personal Saviour.
Then, DR.. Simms said that we needed
to see the evil in our own homes: the
evil influences which are at work there.
The foundation of pure society and good
government is the hearth-stone and there
is no more dangerous force at work to-
day than the reptile that coils at the

Joe Jefferson told this story: David
Garrick and Spranger Barry were both
playing Romeo at the same time in
London. Barry played 1t q: Drury
Lane on the Monday and Garrick play
ed it the next night at Covent Garden,
and the town was divided as to which
was the greater Romeo-in fact. there
was quite n great excitement about 1t,
and they acted II upon such different
lines and with such marvelously differ
ent conceptions that the people argued
the case as to which Shapespeare in
tended. The fact is that Shakespeare
intended it to be acted we'll, and IL
one mans temperament suited it best
to act in that way it would do for an
other temperament the other way. Z
80 they asked Mrs. Siddons, who
was the Juliet alternately with the
same Romeo. which she considered bet
ter of the two. and she said: 1T Is diff
cult to say; they are both wonderfully
great. but l will tell you how they
impress me in the balcony scene. In
the balcony scene Garrick seems so
eager, so intense and so full of fire and
spirit that I'm afraid he'll jump up In

For this story OF the relation OF poll

Medical Journal vouches: A physician
was summoned in haste to attend the
child of a family that lived In two
rooms in the heart of a large AmerI-
can city-not New York. The child had
been seized suddenly and seriously
and just at election time. The mother
was In despair. and when the doubtful
prognosis was given she broke into
wailing and violent self condemnation
Cor some horrible sin of the family to
which she said the child's illness was
due-a direct punishment for their
crime. She would go and curse the mag
istrate for 1t all, her husband should
resign from ''the force" and such evil
ways should be renounced forever.
Curious to know how the magistrate
could be held responsible for the child's
Illness. the doctor finally secured the
confession that the crime OF the poor.
conscience stricken woman consisted
In allowing the names OF many fraudu-
lent voters to be registered as residing
in her house. In swearing to the Ne.

for indescribable political favors.

Gas Discovery in Oklahoma

Great excitement prevails at Gran
ite, the new terminal town of the
Rock Island road, over the discovery
of natural gas on the farm of j. L.
Armstrong, about two miles from the
new town and at the base of Head
quarters Mountain, in the Wichita
range. The flow was struck last
Thursday while boring for water and
is of such strength as to stop further
progress until more suitable machin-
cry may be obtained. The gas has a
pressure of probably 125 pounds. A
large corporation was formed to
handle it and immediate steps taken
to utilize the flow. Indications of coal
and oil have been seen in that coun-
try for several years. but the discov-
cry of natural gas in the Wichita
mountains was great surprise. The
Rock Island has built into that coun-
try and as a result the mountains are
swarming with prospectors.
