A Robbery.

A robbery was committed in towr
by some person or persons Tuesda,
night. 1t occurred Mt Herman Paulsen's
place of business, someone entering hil
large cellar, which is located back Of
his store, by breaking the lock. Wed
nesday morning A. P. Deago and H.. ]
Berry who were in the employ of Mr.
Paulsen, opened up the store, Mr.. Paul
sen being at the time confined to his bsd
seriously i'll. One OF the above gentle.
men had occasion to go into the cellar
when they were surprised to find that
the cellar had been broken into. Upon
Investigation it was found none of thu
stock had been carried away. Mr.
Paulsen was in the habit for some time
past of ~secreting his money in the cellar
and Messrs. Deago and Berry had the
night before put the money box which
contained between 5000 and $500 to.
gether with some time checks which Mr.
Paulsen had cashed for some Of the Sec
ton men on the railroad just before he
was taken sick, in the same place. and
on going to where they had left the box
found that it was missing. There is nc
clew to the theft and so the robbery
stands a mystery.

HELPFUL SERMONS ARE PREACHED
ReVs. McOmber, MCGOWAN and
Robinson Heard--Much In
terest.

Tindall's Grove, Aug. 21.-The
bib'e reading was under the leader
ship of Rev. McOmber of Taylor
Ridge. His lesson was on tithing
and brought forth much animated
enthusiasm.
AT $50 the morning sermon was
preached by Row. c. G. MCGOWAN.
Rev. MCGOWAN is the son of Rev. ID.
S. MCGOWAN, who was one of the Rock
Island district ministers Is years ago
and who at that time made SO sue
cessful a leader of the camp meeting
singing Rev. MCGOWAN took for his
text, "What Doest Thou Here?" LIST
Kings, 1914. He said the bible was
full of extraordinary people, of whom
Elijah was one, full of courage, faith
and other characteristics which mark
a noble man. There is lesson to be
learned from this grand man. man
who gave his life. his time and ener-
gies to God. God blesses a cheerful
giver. God will bless spiritually and
financially if we bring all our tithes
&c the stoTehouse.
The Afternoon Sermon.
The afternoon sermon was by Rev.
J. +. Robinson, of Moline, from Acts.
1880. "Sirs. what must l do to be
saved?" "These are the words of an
awakened man, who saw his need,
and his cry was for salvation. Paul
was on his second missionary tour.
and while at Troas heard a voice call
ing him over into Macedonia with the
gospel. Here he was thrown into
prison and the jailer was charged to
keep him safely. At midnight, while
at prayer, Paul and Silas saw the
prison shaken by an earthquake and
all the doors opened. The jailer, see
ing this phenomena, was impressed
with the holy character of Paul and
Silas and desiring a salvation like theirs
cried out, 'Sirs, what must / do to be
saved ?'- The taller was humble. He
did not charge the prisoners with va
grancy nor with responsi bilitv for the
earthquake, but felt his need and like
the thief crucified with Jesus. prayed
at once for help. He had received
some instructions and had perhaps
heard Paul preach, but it did not i'm
press him. The earthquake made
him think. He asked ,imme hat, =
ly for what he wanted.
God is the goal toward which every
faculty of the soul tends. Uncon-
sciously men are seeking for God.
Some think they want pleasure more
than any thing else, and finally find
that the psalmist only had the right
understanding of pleasure. In thy
presence is fulness of Joy and at thy
right hand are pleasures forever
more Others seek for wealth. but
only in God is found "a never failing
bank, a moro than golden store.
God pity the man who can only be
awakened by an earthquake shock.
His request was for himself. No
man can be saved unless he thinks of
his own individual need. No amount
of work for others will relieve his
own souls want of salvation. 1t is
only when one comes to himself that
the sinner seeks for salvation"
