REVIVAL SERVICES
 COME ID AN END
TWO WEEKS RELIGIOUS GAM PAlGN IN THE CITY FINISH
 ED LAST NIGHT.
Evangelist Hester Goes to Douglas Today, Where With Rev. ]. A. Smith he Has Started a New Church.

The two weeks ~campaigninc for
 Christ which was started a fortnight
 ago in the city came to a close last ev-
 ening. All the ministers in Bisbee
 co-operated in the movement. giving
 time and ability to aid it along.
 Dr. Hester, the visiting evangelist.
 was afraid for a time that he would be
 compelled to give up the meetings. as
 he had nc place in which 10 hold
 them, but Mr. Frye very generously
 offered the Presbyterian church 10
 him, and pr. Hester most willingly ac-
 cepted. Meetings have not only
 been held in the church. but street
 meetings have also been held every
 evening. During Dr. Hester's two weeks stay he made a number. of con- Verts.
 There was fairly good attendance isst evening at the Presbyterian church to hear Dr. Hester in his fare well address, He took his text from Mathew :15-2l, and said in part:
 Martin Luther was the first pro- testant to proclaim against the way things were being run in the church
 We learn a lesson of economy from the feeding of the multitude un me banks of the Galilee. For when the great throns had been fed. there were lew fragments remaining. and the people were going 10 throw them in the sea, but Jesus said. gather up the fragments. for you may need them.
 From this lesson Armour. the great hacking house king. learned the value of fba a.s-l. l.e .r. he had considered nothing bur waste matter. l can not see how any one can doubt the word of God. l don't knew what it is to doubt His word l The man that goes forth bearing the | seed of God will return bearing sheaves. II is an easy matter for the politicians to get the people interested l ln a campaign. bat how difficult il IS Tor the ministers of the gospel to en- ilst the people of the country in the Christian cause. The gospel Of Je- | sus IS the power of God unto saliva ton.
 The Christian of today should be ike the Christians cf :.e first centu- i Y, but there is a vast difference. Ilt Ike to get among the people as Peter ] md Paul did, and talk to the men on he streets. The creed IS one thing. he life is another. IL is not right for T man 10 stand up in Kentucky and i Hedge himself to follow the word of i Tod. and then come out here in Ari- ( -ona and say there is no need of my 8 'eing good or going 10 church here V The great need among the Christian organizations of today is the union md cooperation of Gods people.
 T want to thank all the people who : lave helped to make these meetings e success, and also the ministers for he excellent work they have done. l. s sad thing. a real disappointment . or mar to find out that for twenty IT thirty years he has beeI on the e wrong path. and must retrace his -teps. If I could cure a withered arm IT straighten a crooked limb or raise he dead. it would not do as much 'ood in converting people as faith, neelness. love. joy and long suffer 2 ng- The living of Christian life is ewarded one hundred @old in this ' fife and eternal life in the wCrlo 70 one" After the sermon many Of the con- -regation voluntarily got up and told o )r. Hester how much good they had ~ erived from his meetings. Dr. Hes CT will go to Douglas from here. 1here he and Dr. J. A. Smith nave . tarted new church.
