and surroundings were forgotten in his earnest entreaty to God. Soon the light which surpatheth all knowledge beamed into his darkened and benighted soul. He arose to find the keepers with them. He and his mother must part forever.
 She clasped him in her arms and tried to speak words of cheer, but her lips refused to frame the words. A dead weight in bis arms told him his mother had tainted. She was tenderly carried out. He staggered to his couch and threw himself prone across it, his heart bursting with mingled emotions. X :: x < *
 The hour arrived. The jailer stepped in to lead the condemned man to execution. He stepped to the couch and touched him upon the shoulder, but started back The criminal was dead. He and his mother were buried in the same grave.

A GOOD nEETlNG.

Editor The Journal:
 As you made mention of my visit to Cord to hold a meeting l will give you a sketch of 1t. l went there some two weeks ago and continued the meeting for two weeks, with a growing interest from the start, and as good behav for as l ever saw, except Brothers Stone, !. k. Bewallen, Sister J. l. Martin, Sister Reeves, and il few others, but guess they couldn't help it; at any rate they were not disturbed by the officers Of course 1 always behave on such occasions as this. The interest grew and the fire Sindled till it was said there wasn't a home or person for miles around that was not affected. The meeting was held in an arbor about 4SX61 feet and 1t could not accomodate the immense throngs of people who would gather to hear the Gospel preached. At many services there were above thirty penitents at the altar. One night there were thir- ty-seven. 1 think this was the most far-reaching meeting in effect that l ever saw. It seemed that the spirit of the Lord prevailed every heart. It would be useless to say that the people of God went down in sackcloth and ashes and wrestled, Jacob like, for God to save their sons and daughters, husbands, wives and neighbors.
The Newark journal., 1905-10-06

One dear little boy got up in the meeting and says: Pray for my dear mamma. May God send conviction to that mothers heart today, The work continued till 43 precious souls were saved from sin and many dark and benlghted homes made happy.
 To God be all the glory l had Bros. I. l. Martin and ! L. Brown with me part of the time and Bro. !. k. Lewallen all the time. but 1 did nearly all the preaching. l found one of the most hoSpitabIe people in and around Cord that l ever met in my life. They know just how to make tired, carp-worn preacher feel at home. Splce will not ad- init my mentioning all the good homes l had the pleasure to visit, but allow me to say that Bro. ]. l. Martin has a model family and a happy home. 50 has Nathan Winston, l. (. Nuckolls, the brothers Coleman and many oth. CTS.
 And the people didn't fail to make the preacher think that they appreciated his services, in re- membering him in a financial way. There will ever be worm pltce in my heart for these people, and if we meet no more here we hope to meet where congregations nev CT break up and pleasures never end. c. l.. FINK.

In uaTk, SiOOiIiy Ccll 9oouS man. with despair written on ev- cry feature, was slowly walking to and fro. Outside he could hear the blows of the hammers as the carpenters erected gallows. Each blow fell, as it were, upon his al- ready bursting heart. Great drops of sweat stood upon his brow which was white and drawn with agony. He steps, as he pac- ed his narrow cell, were those of man whose nervous tension is drawn to it's highest pitch. He heard not the laughter of the school children as they passed on their way to school. He did not hear the birds singing in the trees Tn the jail yard. His whole being was centered upon the one agoniz- ing thought that in a few hours he was to die shameful death upon that very scaffold that was being erected. His agony seemed great CT than he could bear. Soon he must stand face to face with God, nnprepared.
 His past rose up mockingly be- fore him. Each incident of his childhood passed before him. The death of his father-why was his father taken away from him when he had reached that critical period in all boys lives when fathers restraining influence and power are most needed!
 And his mother-oh, my God. His heart, if possible, was pierced more deeply. What must that mother be suffering now! He knew she could not desert him, but that she must suffer with him suffer every pang he now felt. Why had he not chosen compan- ions whose influence, instead of leading him into the downward path, would have helped him re- sist the temtation to do wrong! His companions were those who meant no harm, but were careless and meant to have a good time in their estimation. He drank some not because he wanted to, but to be with the boys.' He gam bled some-not for gain, but for the excitement the game offered. The stakes were only five and ten cents. He carried pistol, he did not know why, but the other boys did. He never intended to use it no, he would not use 1t for any thing. But gradually sank deeper and deeper into this lothsome life, and One night while under the in- fiuence of drink and the excite ment of cards he, in the heat of passion, shot a comrade whom he had previously quarreled with.
 Now he was waiting the punish ment of his crime. All hope of escape was gone. In few brief hours he would pay the penalty of his crime with his life Then eternity. ''Oh, eternity, eter- nity,'' he moaned, how can I grapple with the misery that awaits me there. ; One consolation, he thought, is sI will never see my mother on earth. l could not bear to see her.
 He was startled by the sound of the bolts as they shot back and the door opened to admit-his moth er. She tottered to him with out stretched arms, and the silence for a few minutes was broken only by the convulsiye sobs which shook him all over.
 My son. she said, in voice which was agony itself. - had to see you-had to know that all was

AGAINST THE BOOKIES
WESTERN UNION COMMITTEE AD-
VISES IN RACE NEWS MATTER.

NEW YORK, July 1.-THE executive
committee of the Western Union Telegraph
Company adopted a resolution today rec
ommending to the full board of directors
that racing news from horse races be not
supplied by the company except to persons
receiving them through a regular Office
The resolution adopted was as follows:
Whereas this company, under an order
issued by its president on the 18th day Of
May 1904, has directed the cessation of the
collection of horse race reports; and
Whereas 1t is claimed that the distrbu-
ton of horse race reports still continues
Notwithstanding the action of this company
first referred to; be 1t
Resolved, That 1t be recommended to the
board of directors that the officers of the
Western Union Telegraph Company be d.
rected to cease the transmission of any
messages containing horse race reports ex-
cept where such messages are delivered to
O regular office of the company for trans
mission to and delivery through regular
Office of the company or for delivery In such
other manner as the president of the COM
pany shall authorize over his signature"

TO SUCCEED MR.. LOOMS.
Believed That Minister Griscom Will
Come Here.

Although lacking official confirmation as
yet, it is generally believed that Mr.. Lloyd
Griscom, now United States minister to
Japan, will be appointed assistant secretary
of state to succeed Mr. Francis B. LOOMS,
who is booked for a diplomatic appoint
rnent 1t Is understood that this arrange
ment was made by the President several
weeks ago before the controversy arose be-
tween Mr. Ioomis and ex-Minister Bowen
and that it has not been changed as re-
suit of that incident. In the absence Of the
President and the Secretary Of State 1t is
difficult to obtain any reliable information
on the subject, but there is reason to be-
lieve that the change at the State Depart
ment will occur in the fall about the time
Secretary Root takes active control of the
affairs Of the department
So far as can be ascertained there is no
foundation for the report that the force
and business methods of the State Depart
ment are to be reorganized. Thanks to the
efficient efforts of the late Secretary Hay
and Mr.. Loomis and the other assistant
secretaries the business and organization of
the department are in excellent shape.

OVER DISCLOSURES

NEW YORK, July 1.-THE New York
cotton exchange made public today the fol-
lowing letter:
The Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, President
of the United States, Washington, d. c.:
Dear Sir-On behalf of the New York
cotton exchange l want to say that it's
members have been greatly shocked by the
recent disclosures of venality In theDepart-
ment of Agriculture. upon whose reports
they have depended for accurate informa-
ton in the conducting of their common bus
mess.
II beg to request that full investigate
be made of the methods which led to the
corruption, with a view of preventing the
possibility of recurrence and that the guilty
ones be adequately punished.
Official reports should be above the sus-
picion of publications in the interest of any
persons for their individual benefit and as
president of this exchange / wish to put its
members upon record as utterly opposed to
such culpable proceedings.
ION the line of common honesty ask you
for your most emphatic condemnation and
action upon the practices which make legit-
innate business impossible and put the
members of our body at the mercy of trick
sters and knaves.
With great respect, am, yours truly,
WALTER C. HUBBARD
President New York Cotton Exchange"
