0lES. a<ASAG&4 | Q I4o o4 386<&ss
 Many of the Montgomery admirers of James K. Hackett. when he has appeared here at the Theatre. have noticed the "white-haired woman and her disap- pearances between acts as told of in the following from The New York Times:
 There is one spectator who never fails to be present at every performance given by James K. Hackett.
 Frequenters of the theatre have often noticed a dignified, white-haired woman who sits In one of the back rows during MT. Hackett's plays and listens inteptly. At the close of each act she quietly slips out, returning when the curtain is again raised.
 A few nights ago the elderly woman was seen to enter the stage door at Wal lacks and stand by the wings as though waiting for some one. Its MT. Hackett' s mother" said the doorkeeper. She 8 here at every performance ss regularly as MT. Hackett himself
 At that moment the second act was called and MT Hackett dressed as Stephen Brice in "The Crisis came out of his dressing room and hurried toward the stage.
 The visitor interrupted him, laying her hand on his arm.
 What, again, mother?" asked Mir. .ee" Fo hioS7o yoo thSo Ui 1ouI times already tonight"
 But I can't let you go on. you know. dear. without it. It brings you good luck" returned Mrs. Hackett, raising her face up to-that of her tall son. She was not denied her request and then Hackett rushed to the stage just in time to take his cue.
 When asked concerning this little incl dent, Mrs. Hackett said simply. "I am always with my son and have been ever since he first went on the stage. have never missed a single performance or a rehearsal. He likes to know that I am in the audience. Oh, yes, I always travel with him. My transportation is engaged just the same as that of any member of the company

dren of Israel may have complained dur,
I ing the long years of their captivity
no matter how evil they may have
been-if they were sheltered behind
the blood that night. they were as
safe as Moses. Every heart that had
confidence in God and his promise was
safe. We know there must be some
thing beyond ourselves that is to give
us a standing ground before God; and
here il is: the blood of Jesus Christ.
DR. Denny here related a touching
incident. which appropriately illus
trated his point. There went from
one of our Southern homes during the
civil war young man in the strength
of youth to take part in that great
contest. Many months thereafter his
father. a Judge. and an exceedingly
busy man. was interrupted one day by
knock at his Office door. Irritsted,
he called out in a fretted voice TO
"come in" A wan-faced, fever
stricken, MANNED Confederate soldier
opened the door and hobbled in. The
he produced bit of yellow paper and
handed it to him. Taking it, the Judge
read thereon the following words:
4hy DtdT rdtuoT- lHlb rs my uoSS-
mate. He slept under the same blanket
and fought in the same battles with
me He says he is on his way home
to die. Do all you can for him for
Charles sake. - At once the Judge
lost all interest in his business, took
the young man to his home to care for
him and nurse him back to life-all
for Charlie s sake. . Do you and
suppose that when we stand before the
great throne of God and say For
Christ's sake" that that will be no
efficacy Do you suppose that will
be no good standing ground for us?
1t was the plea of the first martyr who
gave up his life and pillowed his head
)n the bosom of Christ. What a power |
here is in the blood of Jesus Christ
Do you know the great truth of this
;ext3 Has it ever taken your feet out
If the miry clay and set your feet upon

'ong in your mouth, even praise unto
3od? There is no such solace for
human hearts to be found in all this
world as this. that Jesus Christ, made
# the same flesh and blood as we, gave
lis life for us, that we through his
