TIE CROWN OF REJOICING.

Thess. ii: l9-"For what is our hope,
or JOY or crown of rejoicing? Are not even
We in the presence of our Lord Jesus
Christ at His coming"
When Paul remembers the Thessalon.
ians whom he had won for Christ he i'm.
mediately replies: eye are our crown of
rejoicing" and so this third form of the
reward is properly called the soul-win-
ner'3 c own.
Alas! some who are born of the Spirit,
who have been trained IN the Christian
church, or might have been, who have
lived all their lives dead in sim shall never
wear it. But it is possible for everybody
to receive it from the hands of the Master
Himself.
This is the crown that the sainted Spur
geon is to wear. 1t is said that 1900 peo-
pie joined his church in his ministry, and
this was only the beginning Of the multi
tude of Others that have been influenced
by his life the world around. 1t is the
crown that Mr.. Moody is to wear, because
in all parts Of the world he has pointed
men to the cruci6ed One. IL is the crown
that faithful Sunday-schoo teachers and
devoted workers are to wear.
l had IL my home at one time a very
celebrated Sunday-school worker He told
me how he became a servant of Christ. He
was converted as a boy before the y oung
Peoples Society of Christian Endeavor was
known. He wanted to do something for
Christ, and all he could think of was ia
teach Sundav-school class. He went to
the superintendent with request that he
might be made a teacher, and was re
fused. He went a second time, with a
like result. He went a third time. and
proposed to bring in a class from outside
and this time he secured the consent OF
the superintendent. When he went out "a
find bows his first visit was to great
brownstone mansion. He rang the bel
and the servant opened the door Hc
asked il the lady of the house could be
seen. He was shown into the parlor, anc
soon the mother of the boy entered.
He said: Il have come to ask if YOU
bow can come to Sunday-school"
Her face flushed and her eyes flashed

ONE LITTLE FLASH
Sent Vibrating Around World
By Telegraph Today.
Pacific Gable Opened and Postal
Circles the World With
Message.
HOW THE FEAT WAS DONE

The course Of President Roosevelt's
message around the world today was
by the Postal Telegraph Co. g land
line from Oyster Bay to San Fran
cisco, thence by the Commercial Pa
cific cables to Honolulu, to Midway,
to Guam and to Manila. From Ma
Mia to Hong Kong the message passed
by the cable which was lifted and cut
by Admiral Dewey in 1895. From
Hong Kong it went to Saigo, to Singa.
pore, to Penang, to Madras, to Bonn
bay, to Alden, to Suez, to Alexandria,
to Malta, to Gibraltar, to Lisbon and
to the Azores. Between Hong Kong
and the Azores 1t had passed by for.
eign cables. At the Azores it was
taken up again by the Commercial
cables and sent to Canso, to New York
and to Oyster Bay. The time of
transmission was at noon today.
A message starting around the world
at 5 q. IN. today would arrive at Hon.
olulu at II p. m. yesterday; at Mid
way at 10 p. m. Yesterday; at Guam
at p. m. today, and at Manila at s
p. m. today. 1t would pass through
India at s p. m. today and would re-
turn to New York before a. IN.
Thus it would have an excursion
from today into yesterday and have
arrived back at New York within an
hour of the time it started. Another
message leaving New York at p. m.
today would arrive at Guam at z a.
m. tomorrow, apparently fourteen
hours after it started, continuing III
journey around the world, it would
arrive at Suez at midnight Of today
and back to New York this morning
On May l6, 1896, at the Nationa,

DEBATE ENDS
Both Sides Satisfied With the
Result of it.
Two Ministers Fined in Graves Coun
ty for Breach of Peace.

The big religious debate at Sedalia,
Graves county, between Revs. Hall
and Pigue has ended and was heard
by a large crowd during the four days
it lasted. Both Baptists and Metho-
dists are confldenb their minister won.
and there was nothing to mar the
perfect harmony and good feeling
which prevailed during the contest.
Wild Bill Evans and W M. Hicks, who
had trouble of a wordy nature before
the debate began, were tried before
Justice Wilson and fined IS and costs
each. The Msytield Messenger says
of them:
Public sentiment was strongly
against them and many have expressed
themselves that they should have
been fined heavier for their conduct,
but this may teach them an important
lesson, and that hereafter they must
not be so severe in their critici SIMS OF
each other.
1.-THE debate was well attended by
ministers of the Baptist church, there
being over thirty present each day.
The Methodist ministers were. not
there in such large numbers. The de.
bate is over, however, and all is calm
and serene"
