Looking Unto Jesus.

No sinner was ever saved from eter-
nal death except by the divine atone
ment. Now, my friends, 1t Is about
time for some OF you to stiffen up the
backbone OF your theology. 1t is about
time for some OF US to realize that only
the blood or Jesus Christ can cleanse
us as white as the driven snow. There
is stream In Corsica called the river
Restonia. which has the remarkable
power OF turning white everything
which Is dropped into it's clear waters.
The cane which falls from your hand
into ii becomes n white stick. The
watch which slips out of your pocket
into IL becomes a white metal. A trav-
eler tells us that an iron bar dropped
into those waters at once becomes
white as silver scepter. SO every
one who IS really cleansed by Christ's
blood becomes, as in the river Resto-
MIA, white as the driven snow. But,
mark You. as the old southern nanny
said. II Is only by looking to Jesus.
.wheIa-a-aoa 70 love that you and !

The injured are: John Dill, son OF

burned and will probably die; William,
Jones, aged So, married, seriously
burned and will probably die; Joseph
Ward, aged Al, married, will recover;
General Cole. aged 81, married, will re.
cover. OF the dead, all but Dill were
dead when found in the mine. Their
bodies were rescued two hours after the
explosion, the delay being caused by the
inability of the rescuers to combat the
afterdamp. The Ave injured, including
George Dill, who later died, were
brought to the surface 30 minutes after
the explosion. They were found heaped
together in an unconscious state.
The cause of the disaster is not known
save that it resulted from a powder ex-

blasts previous to leaving the mine,
and the greater part of the miners had
ascended. Whether it was a premature
shot or an overcharge is not known
now, nor is it known who fired the shot.
