mon that for clearness and and power is scarcely excelled. The whole discourse was a practical demonstration of the Divinity of Christ. ''
 The preacher said he found two great facts in the world and they were here to stay, namely:
 That the Bible was the re- vealed will of God and that Jesus was the son of God. "
 His text was taken from John 7:17: If any man shall do His will he shall know of the doc trine.'
 The speaker further said that if he did not have as high evil dence of the divinity of Christ as he did of his own existence he would never attempt to preach again. Jesus Christ rested his divinity on consciousness and that is the highest reason we have for anything.
 All who attend these meetings seem to be greatly benefited, and those who do not are missing a great privilege. Services this afternoon at 3 o'clock and to- night at 7:30 pm.
 MT. Mcintosh announced that he would preach Thursday after noon to ladies only. He says the sermon to mothers wives and daughters is the best he has. The meeting will continue through the week. X

FAST MAIL WAS WRECKED.
fngine Rod Broke While Train Was 1T South St. lOuls and Numerous
 lni niuries Resulted.

St. Louis, Feb. 19. The new fast mail train on the Iron Noun tain railroad which is racing against the Frisco-Katy lines for mail contracts to Texas, was wrecked in South St. Louis this morning and twelve men on board, including the engineer and conductor, were injured.
 The breaking of rod on the engine caused the wreck. The train was just getting into full speed when the locomotive bounded from the track. It was followed by two cars. The en- zine and the first car were tele- scoped and together they rolled down a 15-foot embankment. The second car, after turning over, lodged in the River Pes Peres.
 It is not believed that the in juries of any of the victims will prove fatal.
 CITIZENS AID VICTIMS. When the train left the union station this morning 1t consisted of two mail and two express coaches. Directly behind the locomotive was a mail coach. This coach was telescoped. In it were the clerks who were in- jured.
 After the wreck, persons in the neighborhood, who were aroused by the crash, turned out to care for the injured. Several of the victims were so tightly pinioned under the Wreckage that it required much work to release them.
 The accident is the first mis- hap of a serious nature that has occurred since the race between the two mail trains was started three weeks ago.

EXTENSION CERTAIN.
St. Louis and North Arkansas Railroad
 Will Probably Bu Id Both Ways.

Little Rock, Feb. IS. The St. Louis & North Arkansas Rail- road is to be extended to Joplin on the north and either to Helena or Little Rock or Memphis on the southeast.
 This is the report that was brought to Little Rock yesterday by a party of local capitalists who areinterested in the enter prise, Messrs. John Mcclure, P. K. Roots, John M. Moore and w. B. Smith, who on Wednesday attended a conference at St. Louis with Messrs. John Scullen, Charles H. Smith, David R. Francis, A. G. Edwards, R. E. Brookins, Richard Kerens, Pow ell Clayton, the Taussigs, Dozier and Dickman.
 The conference was called for the purpose of considering the situation, and resulted in the ap- pointment of a building com mittee consisting of Messrs. Scullen, Brookins, Francis, Clay- ton and Kerens, who are charged with the duty of finally determ- ming upon the routes to be fol- lowed. Most of these are mil lionaires.
 It is the desire of those inter- ested in the project to secure a western outlet by extending to Joplin, and an outlet to the Gulf at New Orleans by as short and direct a route as possible. It will require about $3,500,O0O more to finance these extensions, and not quite all of this is in sight yet. All express confi- dence, however, that it will be raised and the extensions built.
 Many of those present at the conference favored Helena or Memphis as the most feasible point on the Mississippi by means of which to secure the Gulf out let. There are some, however, who are favorable to Little Rock and there is still a possibility of i it's extension to this city.
