to Hin In all things. He that is obe-
dent In all things and overcometh all
things, shall inherit all things. All that
the Father hath shall be given unto
him. But II he will not be obedient, II
he will not bow to the laws which en-
title him to celestial glory, he must re-
ceive that condition and that measure
OF glory in that kingdom the laws OF
which he Is willing to obey. Therefore.
We are told that there Is also a ter
restrial glory and celestial glory, and
there is a kingdom that is not king
dom of glory; and he that will not
abive law, he that will not bow In
obedience 10 the commandments Of God,
but seeks TO become a law unto him
self, and altogether abldeth In sin. can
not receive a kingdom Of glory at all.
There will be some who, because they
are so self-willed and rebellious and
stubborn in their acts, and will not
yield to God or man, will be ban
ished from the presence Of the Lord and
the glory OF His power. They will go
into outer darkness, where there Is
weeping and wailing and gnashng OF
teeth" How long? Until they learn
obedience by the things which they
suffer.
Thanks be to God. the old crude idea
OF an everlasting hell of fire and brlm-
stone and torment. out ~ which there Is
no redemption, has been dispellei
like the clouds Of night by the light
OF the milennial morn which has shone
forth from the presence OF our Lord
Jesus Christ, the Sun OF righteousness.
There will be an opportunity for all the
sons and daughters Of God-for they are
immortal-at some time to come out
of darkness, disobedience. sorrow, sin
and suffering, and find some place
where they can advance, and that ad-
vancement will be forever; for they are
the sons and daughters OF God, and
there Is no end TO their existence. They
will all have life In some degree. But
that promise Of eternal life which Jesus
Christ said should be given 20 those
who are His at His coming-those who
obey His commandments, those who en-
list under His banner, those that are
baptized into Christ and put ON Christ
will be fulfilled In every particular
they will inherit that glory which He
promised, and the gift OF eternal life.

parts Of their being are not developed.
Some people live only for that which
they eat and drink and wear and that

their mental faculties and their intel

whose physical and intellectual powers

OVERCAME HIS HATRED OF

novels out OF sight and spent an OF his

stood well at the head OF his class and
was awarded the honor Of delivering
the class Grafton. His subject was a
strange and greWsome one Tor a young
man, and was entitled The Fear Of
Death. II was delivered in faultless
style and greeted with much applause.

At various times he taught In Deering,

Altoona, Pa, Nov. 12.-On May %,
1901, railroad engineer John Reilly,
who was descending the mountain
west of this city with an empty en-
CINE, at great risk to his own life,
stopped runaway freight train fol-
lowing him. The freight train was
beyond control and was running at
such frightful speed that Conductor
Jack Early, of Pittsburg, was thrown
off and killed before his train was
stopped. Yesterday afternoon General
Manager J. B. Hutchinson, Pittsburg
division; Superintendent Robert Pit
cairn and many transportation officers
came to this city and presented En-
gineer Reilly With a $1,000 gold watch
and chain and check for $500 in
recognition of his valued services. The
inscription On the watch says: "Given
to Engineer John Reilly by the Board
of Directors of the Pennsylvania
Railroad in recognition of his cour-
age, judgment and sense of duty, May
%, 1901"
Engineer Reilly's courageous act
saved the railroad company the loss
of many thousands of dollars.
At the same time the presentation
was made to Engineer Reilly, Con-
ductor James T. Lundy and Engineer
William Black were rewarded for
heroic service by each being present
ed with company voucher for 5000.
