with vividness that was as remark
able as it was absorbing.
The marvellous talent of the evange-
list as a tragic actor was brought into
full play in describing the refusal Of
men and women to heed Gods warn
ings preceding the Johnstown flood,
the Ashtabula bridge disaster and the
eruption of Mount Pelee in the West
Indies, when 1000 people lost their
lives. These scenes passed before the
audience as on a showman's screen.
Il believe that an eternal hell is a
verify. There may be other methods
of punishment besides the lake of fire,
mental agony, for instance; but Gods
figures never overstate the facts, and
| implore none of you to try the reali-
ties Of hell. The best people there are
in hell are worse than the meanest on
earth. He'll is as logical consequence
of sin as heaven is of salvation. How
shall We escape if we neglect so great
salvation?'
SIN hell the rich man, who has sacri-
the almighty dollar, will be subjected
to ceaseless remorse. The woman, who
has lived all for society; the drunkard,
who has caused suffering in his home ;
the gambler, who has wronged inno-
cent victims the murderer, will all re-
count over and over again the deeds
which banished them from Gods king
dom. All the memories of their sins,
like the forked fang Of hell, will strike
them.
1.-THE plan of Gods salvation is great.
The coming of Jesus Christ is positive
proof that God wants man to be saved.
If you don't reach that salvation you
will have no one to blame but yourself.
Except you repent of your sins and are
baptized you are lost. No man begins
to live until he becomes Christian, for
it is Christianity that promotes and en-
courages the highest type of men and
women. Sin brings all evil; Christ
ianity brings love and happiness, char
ity and contentment. A man must see
that he is an idiot and fool when he
is unrighteous.
Where sin is, there must be suffer-
ing. Take away the fear of punish
ment, the fear of the jail, penitentiary
and the rope, and neither life, virtue
nor property would be safe. 1t is the
fear of hell that holds men back. Dis
obey mans law and the punishment is
the Jail. Disobey Gods law and the
punishment is an eternity in hell. Live
in accordance with human law and 1t is
accordance with Gods law and the re-
ward is an eternity in heaven"

A BUNCH OF SUNSHINE
IN THE PENITENTIARY

Sunday morning there WAS another
remarkable service at the pen.
Rev Sunday preached to about 700
convicts, and such sermon few con-
victs have had the fortune to hear.
He preached the gospel OF hope-both
for this world and the next.
He told of striking Instances where
men have been lower in the depth OF
sin and degradation than any inmate of
the Colorado State Penitentiary, yet
have cleaned up and become powers
for good.
He told the story OF jerry McAully,
of his life OF sin Of his conversions. his
reformation and of the great power for
good he became; or the Jerry McAully
mission in New York: the story OF
gambler Quin and prize fighter Kilgore
By illustrations OF actual experience
he showed the man be hind the bars
that all was not lost and that there is a

OLD FASHIONED HE'LL
eternal DAMNATI0h

One of the most magnificent audi
epces of men and women that has thus
far assembled to hear Evangeli:t Sun
day was present at the Tabernacle
Thursday night to listen to his dis
course on hell and damnation. The
great building was filled to its utmost
capacity by gathering which appear
ed deeply concerned in everything that
was said, the interest aroused by some
of the more tragic recitals being almost
painful in its silence and intensity.
Rev. Sunday said, in part, MY text
assumes the form of question, and it
is unanswerable so far as mankind is
concerned. 1 might go to your
merchants and they could tell me about
business methods. l might 60 to your
lawyers and they could tell me about
codes and the procedure of the courts.
I could go to your physicians and they
could tell me about anatomy, hygiene
and therapeutics, but none of them
could answer the question conveyed in
my text, How shall we escape if we
neglect SO great Salvation"
Rev. Sunday did not preach a hell
of literal fire and birthstone necessar-
lily. but he did preach hell of re-
morse. The remorse, which every lv-
ing man and woman experiences to u
greater or less extent, that burns the
mind and heart as with fire. The
word painting of the sermon was of a
tragic character and was portrayed

The Sermon.

In part Rev. Sunday said, mo
book ever came TO us by luck or
chance No volume has ever been
given to the world that does not owe
its existence to some being. There
are three things responsible for the
Bible. Good. Bad and God. 1t could
not have been written by vicious, ini-
quitous men, for if it had been it would
not have directed its maledictions TO-
wards the wicked. 1t was inspired
and is the product of that which is
the greatest heritage of man. The
Bible is the headlight of all human
progress. Morality, decency, respecta-
bility and good citizenship are all
taught by its sacred pages.
The Bible exceeds the combined
wisdom of all men just as much as
the sun exceeds in its brillianoe the
radiance of the electric lights in this
Tabernacle. 1t tells us where we
are going. God has made it plain
what the end will be. IL will be
either heaven or hell for all of us as
God keeps no halfway house Most
people believe in God, but what atti-
tude do they take towards his word
as revealed in the Biblef
We sometimes hear people say, Il
can't be "A Christian because of the
conditions the Bible imposes " God
does not tell men and women to do
something he knows they can not do.
-, h,., mi II
damn them if they do not do that
which they can not do. God COM
mands people to repent of their sins.
II they refuse he says they will be
damned. 1t is not because you can't
be Christian. 1t is because you
would rather live in your sin. You
are just as good as you want to be
and not a whit better. God does not
ask you to do the impossible.
| There are two classes of disbeliev-
ers. The one with the utter disre-
gard for Gods work. The one that
leads the life of drunkenness and vile
ness. The other class is the noble,
manly and womanly abilities absorbed
in other matters. They that pay no
attention to His work, but turn up
their nose AZ the intellectually OF
those that are willing to do His COM
mands. There is nothing outside the
Bible that will satisfy spiritual long
ings. Nothing that will bring con-
ISOLATION and comfort in the time OF
distress 1t is the only thing that
| cun roh death af its terrora and make
the bed of suffering and distress feel
soft as downy pillows are. When
misfortune comes You may search the
philosophy Of Mill, Strauss, Gibbon,
voltaire. Ingersoll and all Of the In
fdels and agnostics that ever lived.

CLIMAX OF RELIGIOUS
FERV0R IS REACHED

Whatever of skepticism and doubt
may have existed in some quarters IS
the efficacy of Rev. Sundays preach
ing convicting sinners Of the error Of
their way must have been dispelled by
the splendid results Of the Tabernacle
meetings Sunday afternoon and even
ing, when one hundred and eighty
two persons gave their hearts to God
and entered upon a newness uf spirit
ual life.
The meetings last Sunday were the
most remarkable in the chronicles of
Canon City and have had few if any
parallels in the history of Colorado
in the religious zeal they inspired and
in the practical good they accomplish
ed in helping men and women out of
the darkness of sin into the light Of
righteousness. Rev. Sunday deliver
ed four sermons during the day, the
total number of his auditors at the
different services exceeding eight
thousand people.
The most wonderful meeting of the
series was held at the penitentiary at
O'Clock in the morning, and, at its
conclusion, between two and three
hundred convicts expressed desire to
lead Christian life. At 1890
O'Clock Rev. Sunday addressed large
assemblage at the Tabernacle on the
twenty-third Psalm and in the after
noon delivered two discourses; the
first at 80 to men only and the last
at Z 80 to a mixed gathering. In ad-
dition to these meetings Mrs. Sunday
conducted a special service for women
at the First Presbyterian church
which was attended by more than a
thousand ladies.
The mems meeting was character
ized by an interest and conservation
that was a surprise to all, no less So
to Rev. Sunday than to those about
him, and at the close of most fer
vid and impassioned appeal for men
to renounce the devil and his ways
and take up the cross of Christ ninety
two men went forward and promised
by that act to serve the king of kings,
who ruleth supreme from everlasting
to everlasting and holdeth the earth
in the hollow of his hand. The en-
thusiasm inspired by this splendid
meeting became contagious and WAS,
no doubt, to some extent responsible
for the great outpouring of people at
the later service nd the ninety-two
