LARGE CONGREGATIONS
AT Christian Church Yesterday Earn.
est Sermon by Pastor-0ne Conyer.

The Christian Church on Spruce st.
spent one of it happiest days yester-
day.
A good congregation was present in
the morning for the ministry of the
word, and the administration of the
Lords Supper. The pastor preached
earnestly on rTrue Marks of Chris
tian.n
In the evening The church was pack
ed with people. The opening song
service was enthusiastic Miss Sad
ler's SOLO "TheU Songs That Mother
sang" was exquisltely rendered. But
it was not for the exquisite art that
the entire congregation listened with
rapt attention. IL was because the
singer sang from the heart. sang to
the heart, sang of things dear to the
heart of every one
The subiec6 of the sermon was
s'What Must | do to be saved?" The
preacher said: ave are not to be
saved from persecution, because the
true christian viii be prosecuted. We
are not to be saved from death, for all
men must die. We are to be saved
from sin. If you want to find out
how men and women were saved from
sin according to the teaching Of Christ
and his Apostles read the book OF
Acts.
The character of sin has not chang
ed. The plan of salvation has not
changed, Ii you are saved from sin
you must be saved just IS men and
women were saved in the days of the
apostles Note Peters reply to the
question on the day of Pentecost,
Acts SO. Note the conversion Of the
eunuch, the jailer, Lydia. Saul, All
these complied with the same condl-
tions, Faith, Repentance, Confession,
Baptism. This is the way to begin to
work out your salvation. Then you
must live the Christ life. Begin now. .
Following this earnest presentation
of truth and exhortation to duty the
services Of the day were crowned and
the JOY of pastor and people made per-
feet by hearing again the confession
of faith and knowing that one more
soul was being added to the Lord.
The subject of tomorrow evening
sermon is, "Christ the Fulflllment of
Prophecy"

A PITHY STATEMENT.
Mr.. w. A. Ream Gives an Apt
Illustration.
His Views ON Yinol are Worth Learn
ing-This is Preparation That is
Being Much Talked About.

! A reporter asked Mr.. Ream the same
question that hundreds have asked him
in the last few days. Just tell me
precisely. please, why Vinol is better
than cod liver oil?''
Mr.. Ream replied in his genial way,
You have given me rather difficult
task, | can explain to you in a few
minutes tbs advantages of Vinol, but to
| do 1t in half dozen words would
be impossible. Perhaps | can illustrate
its value, however, in brief manner
! Suppose you had never seen a hen s
! egg A man who knew of them should
tell you to eat three every day. / do
not say that you would, mind you, but
[ am inclined to believe at the start YOU
would make an heroic effort to get away
with the whole thing, shell and all.
The meat OF the egg would be what YOU
needed, the she'll rather superfluous.
In fact, as matter of nourishment, not
quite the thing for your stomach.
''There you are with cod liver oil, In
it you have a medicine, or rather in the
liver of the cod there is a medicine
known to be valuable for certain forms
wasting disease, great reconstructor.
Doctors have administered it for years.
They were like the man who never
seen an egg before. They gave it to
their patients just as theylfound it, shell
and all. Yes, that is exactly it. The
grease was useless and as bad for the
stomach. almost, as would have been
the shell OF the egg. The kernel, or
meat ofthe remedy, the vital principles
that they were after, were contained in
it. Science has stepped in and done
exactly what the man with the egg
might have done-found way to sepa-
rate the healthful interior from the
worthless husk.
NOW we have the active medicinal
principles OF the Gods liver. We have
thrown away the useless eneumbranees
that formerly encloaked it, namely, the
objectional fat. We have taken this
extract, placed it a delicious table wine,
and there you are. Patients who have
need Of cod liver oil and could not take
1t have no trouble in taking Vinel.
Why, you would enjoy drinking it your
self, so pleasant is it. if | did not tell
you it was anything but a mild wine.
II you needed it, however, for medi-
cine, You would soon find it to be some
thing different. The medicinal proper
ties of the Gods liver heal damage done
by disease that are OF a wasting nature.
and the same principles give strength to
the weakened digestion and enable the
poor sufferers stomach to digest and
obtain nutriment from everyday food.
These same principles are also active
disease germ anpihilators.
Eyes, am glad to have you come
any time that you care to learn any,
thing more about Vinol 1t has already
proved itself to be a winner"

OIL AT THIRTY SEVEN FEET.
Remarkable strike on D0nley Farm a
Mount Norris.

While digging a we'll for water on
the d. L. Donley farm at Mount
Morris Saturday, oil was struck at a
depth Of 81 feet. The we'll flowed
about barrel and half day, and
great excitement has been caused in
that section by the remarkable strike.
All the oil wells in that vicinity
range in depth from 1,600 tie 1000
feet. A strike at 81 feet breaks the
record for finding oil at shallow
depths, and many conjectures are
being made as to the source of the
product. The theory is that it has
accumulated in the sand from other
wells in the vicinity.
The well from which the oil flowed
is on lot owned by Mckee. 1t
was near his residence and has been
plugged. Another we'll will be bored
at point about one hundred yards
distant

DOUBLE TEAM STOLEN.
Pair of Horses and Buggy Driven
Off Sunday Night.
We're Hitehed at RiYerside-Had Been
s @s Hired to Mcclellan Dean by Els
worth DonIey = stopped at Mrs.
Racer's-No Clue to Direction Taken.

A pair of horses attached to a
light buck board were stolen Sun
day morning shortly after one
O'Clock. from a hitching post in
front of the residence of Mrs. Racer,
in Riverside, just below town, on the
west side OF the river. The horses
belonged to Ellsworth Donley, oil
Mt. Morris, and were driven by
McClelland Dean, formerly OF
Canonsburg. Officers here, at
Fairmont, Waynesburg aud other
points have been notified, bu5 up
until noon nothing had been heard
of the team or thief.
The team consisted of a gray mare
weighing about 1000 pounds, with
scar on her left hip, and light
bay horse, weighing about LOO
pounds, having two white feet and a
star in his forehead. The team is a
valuable one.
Dean, who had possession of the
team just before it was stolen, hired
it from Donley at Mt. Morris Sat
urday and drove it to Riverside
1t was about one o'clock Sunday
morning when he reached Mrs.
Racers place in Riverside. He
hitched the team at the roadside
and went in. About a half an hour
later he came out and the team was
gone.
There was nothing to indicate the
direction taken, and up until noon no
clue had been discovered to lead to
the recovery of the horses or the APP
prehension of the thief. This Is the
second instance OF startlingly bold
horse stealing in this community
within a few weeks, and strong eff
fort will. be made to catch the guilty
parties.

TWO CENTS
SLOW GAME
At Wheeling Saturday-Ofhcials
Prevented Fast Play.

Must Wait for the Whistle--W v. u.
Only Scored Two Touchdowns
Against Bethany--yarsily was Heay-
lily Penalized.
The Varsity beat Bethany at
Wheeling Saturday by the close
score of Ii to 5. The fans here
hardly understood why the score
was not twice that big until the
boys came home to explain how it
happened. 1t seems that in all,
West Virginia lost 65 to rs yards
and two chances to score, in penal
ties imposed by the officials who had
their eyes peeled for the Varsity's
slips. Bethany was never penalized
during the game.
The Old Gold and Blue was most
seriously handicapped, however, by
most peculicr ruhag of the officials,
who held that West Virginia could
not give her signals before, and
start. the play directly after the
whistle blew They had to line up,
wait for the whistle, formally an
nounce the signals and play. fine
after time, West Va. gained ten or iif-
teen yards only to be brought back
because the referee had not blown
his whistle before the signal was
given. The Bethany backs and ends
were allowed to lock arms and run
in the interference, Notwithstanding
the protest of the Varsity. This of
course is against all the modern
rules of the game.
The officials were one Brown, of
w u. p and an Ewing, Wheeling

ter andhas evidently not been supple.
mented since. Mr.. Brown, of course,
could not be expected to learn much
at w. L. 2.
The game was played in the pres
enee of about 500 people, who finally
brought the game to a close by
crowding on the field like the props
at a practice here. There were
rooters in the crowd for both teams,
the Bethany adherents predominant
ing.
Core, Simmons and COPYRIGHT,
the Varsity backs, were always able
to gain from two TO fifteen yards,
Cores line plunges being particular
" effective. Bethany kicked off to the
Varsity, and in liz minutes of play
COPYRIGHT ran so yards through
big hole made by Waugh for the
first touchdown.
Core made the next touchdown for
West Virginia with only % seconds
left to play. The ball was carried
nearly the tull length of the field by
straight line plunges, and Bethany
was outplayed at every point. The
half closed with the score Ito.
In the second half, Bethany ran
West Virginia's ends for long gains,
and succeeded in scoring after
desperate defense by the Varsity on
their own fve-yard line. Pfelfer
missed goal.
The game ended on account of
darkness, with l24 minutes to play,
and the ball in the Varsity's posses
sion, being carried down the field by
gains of to 20 yards clip.
The line.up WAS as follows.

The game is not true sport. 1t is

is also to be deplored. At times it

GOING BY HUNDREDS
{ The 500 Road Has Taken Out /, 400
Homeseekers Yesterday

Next Weeks Figures Expected to Be
Larger Many Go West
to Stay.

Yesterday and to-day the 500 has han.
died enough settlers and home-seekers tc
make a small town. Fourteen hundred
persons have been carried west by Soc
trains on reduced rates these two days
Yesterday 700 were taken out in search
of green fields and happy homes. To-day
the total again reached 700. Those taken
out yesterday were local patrons at spe-
cial rates. Those who came to-day were
from eastern points on tickets sold yes
terday. .... -@.. .s~s.t
: This is the best record the 500 has
made since the rates were put into ef-
feet. The passenger department expects
next weeks travel to exceed greatly the
traffic Of yesterday and to-day. AS the
weather settles, the influx to the north
west increases.
1t Is interesting to know that only about
20 per cont of the tickets sold are for
the round trip. The so per cent are set
tiers who have pulled up stakes and
burned their bridges behind them. It is
expected that at least three-fourths OF
the 40 per cent which bought round trip
tickets will settle in the west after they
have viewed the land and returned for
their families.
The Great Northern and Northern Pa
cifio trains are running in two sections,
so as to care for home seekers who took
advantage Of the first rate day on these
two lines yesterday and to-day.
