Bishop Thomas F. GailOr preached
one OF his powerful sermons 10 large
congregation in ST. Peters church
Sunday morning. The miracle OF
the Ioaves aud fishes was taken as
text and the great central thought was
taken from the order of the Master 10
his disciples TO gather up the fragments
in baskets that nothing be wasted.
In Gods world, the speaker said,
nothing is wasted. Man wastes mis-
time. his opportunity, his talents, tut
God wastes nothing. All of the past
is Contained in the present. All of the
present will be found in the future
God has been building and improving
since time began. The best that the
universe, the world, mankind had TO
offer was used in building His christian
civilization on earth and His greater
kingdom above Men claim that they
are of no influence, of little Importance.
and in consequence sit supinely down
and do nothing for themselves, nothing
for the world. nothing for the church.
1t is not what we have TO offer, but
what use God will make with the little
we rave that will be counted in the
great day of reckoning.
At the conclusion of the sermon
Bishop Gailor confirmed large class.
The music of the service was especially
beautiful.
Service of Song.
The first Methodist Church was
crowded to overtiowing Sunday night.
Chairs we're used in the alsles, num-
Der of people stood up, and scores
| turned away from the doors. The at
| traction was a service of sacred song,
and never a more delightful service
was listened to. The program was
published in Saturdays Herald, and
need not be repeated here. 1t abound
ed in choice selections, and was exc
cuted with exquisite skill. 1t was all
good, aud yet of course in such varied
program some numbers were sweeter
than Others. It's no reflection. there
! fore, to mention what may seem the
| best.
Nothing could be sweeter than Miss
Annie Jennings SOLO She sang
when Shall | See Jesus, to the tune
of Annie Laurie, and her face and
manner and voice and words blended
SO sweetly with the dear old familiar
tune, that there was nothing lacking In
| it all
The uuett, "Hark, Hank Ny Soul, .
By Miss Maude Walker and Mrs Carrie
Smith Mcclure, was difficult and clas-
steal, and yet so perfectly rendered as
to be wondrously sweet and musical.
Prof. Hutsell s solo, Gross and
Crown" was rich and full and beau
tiful. 1t was a number that would
take high rank on any program; and

Redeemer and My Lord, - is entitled

David A. Adcock's Funeral.

The funeral services over the remains
of Mr.. David A. Adcock, who was killed
Monday afternoon in Nashville, were
conducted Tuesday morning at III
o'clock at the home of Mr.. Allen Adcock,
father of the deceased. Rev. G. w
Sherman, of Nashville, who conducted
the sermon, made an especially strong
talk. He spoke of the honesty, integ-
rity and good character of the unfortu'
nate man, and referred to him as man
of whom any community might have
been proud; but whiskey, he said, was
his ruin and the cause OF his death,
and the tears and sorrow that had been
brought upon his loved ones. Mr.. Sher-
man spoke a word of warning to the
living, and said that if it was in his
power he would crush this terrible
demon drink, which had brought sor-
row to so many other homes, out OF tho
land. He hoped his hearers would re
member this sad lesson, and vote here
after against any man who favored the
liquor traffic.
The remains of Mr.. Adcock were in
TERED in Rose Hill cemetery.

to no less praise.
.'Golgotha, was the next number.
By request, that the audience might
the more easily follow the singer, Mr.:
McFerrin first read the words, and
then Mrs. Carrie Smith Mcclure sang
them. She sang them as only an ar
fist with her soul in her song, can sing.
She travelled and carried the congrega-
ton with her through the dark valley
and SHADOW of the cross, up the slope
to the mountain peak of praise and
victory. 1t was wonderful rendition
of wonderful anthem. Mrs. Nc
Clure also sang by request That Old
fashioned Song and that Old fashioned
Story which for bright, gladstone
cherry music, is simply par excellence
When many who were there have for,
COTTON Mrs. Mcclure name they Will
remember that wonderful little song
bird who sang "Golgotha. ana
when others have forgotten Col
gotha" they will remember Mrs. Nc
Clure who alleluiahed That Old
fashioned Song and that Old fashioned
Story.
Last but not least. Mrs. Ella Kelley
and Mrs. Charles Sharp deserve special
mention for the complete success oI Tue
evening. More depends upon the
organist than upon any other one per-
former; and Mrs. Kelley certainly
does that part we'll. But after all,
the strength of the choir is in the
directress. Mrs. Sharp not only lends
beautiful voice to this choir, but by
untiring effort, sweet, christian word,
precept and example, and fine womanly
tact, she kepes down all discords and
makes for harmony in more ways than
one.
