From the text, IF any man will
do his will he shall know of the
Doctrine, whether it be of God, or
whether speak of myself"
Wednesday night for the second
time since the Tabernacle meetings
began Rev. Sunday had to preach
againt the noise made by the patter
OF rain upon the iron of the great
building and the sound of his voice
was at times almost drowned by the
noise 1t created. Although Canon
City has far less annual rainfall than
any point in the Mississippi valley
the precipitation has been abnormal
since Rev. Sunday and the members
of his party arrived, and, unless con-
ditions change during the next few
days, they will get the idea that the
ArkAnsas valley is about one of the
wettest places this side of the Dismal
swampo Virginia.
The miit, which had filled the air
during the afternoon. became 3 heavy
precipitation shortly after the Taber-
nAcle service began and the rain drops
battered down upon the roof with the
noise and force Of bullets, rendering
it almost impossible for Rev. Sunday
to speak in such way as to be aud
ible to those who sat in the rear of
the structure DESPITE the disagree
ableness of the evening an audience
of fully 100 people were present and
they were amply repaid for their
courageousness in coming out by the
splendid sermon which they heard.
IT should like to make this mes
sage so plain. said Rev. Sunday. that
when you come to the Judgment Day
You cannot say that you didn't know
what to do to be saved. God has
made the way so plain that way
faring man, though a fool, cannot
fail TO see it. / should like to divest
it of the swsddling clothes of theo-
logy, which often dinls and obscures
the beauty of Gods plan of salvation.
God requires willing mind. That
you live up to your ability and do
things which you cannot understand.
There are some things in the darkness
you can not see but walk on with the
light you have and it will light the
way ahead for your vision. Yea will
never know any more of Gods truth
urfil you take step. Desire TO know
the truth that you may do the truth.
II you desire to know the truth for the
purpose of finding fault, that is dam
nable, but IL You desire knowledge
that you may do that which is noble
and grand then God blesses such a
man OF WOIllan.
knowledge used to help others is
commendsble. but knowledge used for
the purpose of combating the divine
law and disputing facts is condemus-
tion. God gives people light in or
der that it may be used in his cause.
Rev. Sunday gave several very peril
nent illustrations to prove the fsllscy
of the argument of the man or woman
who say they would be Christian if
they understood everything in the
Bible. The example of an intricate
piece of machinery for making filters
for egg cases; the clock presented to
Mr.. Moody by a lady in honden.
which only licked one tick at time;
a lantern on a dark night; man in
dark cellar surrounded by serpents
when the cavern is suddenly lighted
by lowering into it lignted candle,
and many others, some luGicrous,
some pathetic. Very few people
among the hundreds present but could
understand Gods commands if they
wanted to.

There is still more or less talk OF con-
tests over the city election by both
sides.
There were several ballots at the top
for Prohibition" Temperance" !"
DRY" and mo Licens" which were
not counted.
The number is variously estimated
at from dozen to nineteen.
II these had been counted they would
have seated every Reform alderman,
and some OF the Reform people feel
that these places should be contested
for.
The Taxpayers, also, have done some
= talk Of contesting. Some contend that
the election was irregular in voting for
aldermen, in that each ward should
have elected its own aldermen.
Had this been done the two TaIpay-
er aldermen In the First ward would
\ undoubtedly have been elected.
They also claim some irregularity
about counting scratched votes on al

No contest papers have been filed yet
. and a contest has not been definitely

8 The chances are that il one side con-
tests the other will also, and things will

Many people on both sides seem to

Of the returns.
The majority OF the people are un-
questionably in favor of dry town
