HOW To PREPARE
Told by Dr.. William E. Bic deIwoif
in His Sermon Last
Evening.
PROMISES IN SCRIPTURES
Urges People to Stand by Convictions
Meetings VIII Not Conclude
Thursday As intended.

Prepare to meet thy God" the warn
ng of Paul, was the subject of DR.. VIII
liam z, Biederwolf last evening. IF
Paul did not mistake when he said
hose words. it is folly indeed for 4
man to allow his attention TO become
80 fixed on the things of this world
that he loses sight of the necessity of
preparation for the things of the next, "
he said in Introduction. He took up the
TWO problems of preparation How to
prepare" and when to prepare and
presented the answers TO each. In
speaking of the manner of preparation
Dr.. Biederwolf declared that two things
are necessary: an honest desire to
know about the things of Jesus Christ
and to know better whether the things
of the bible are true or not; and will
lingness, once the light is found. TO
use it. OF the first he said, Until
you have concern enough about your
soul TO have an earnest desire to know
better about the things of the bible,
there is no hope. and you are unsaved. =
OF the second he quoted the scriptural
promise that IF any man willeth to
do the will Of God. he shall know
whether the things of Jesus Christ be
true or not. If you are willing to
take the first step, and follow where
the Will of God leads, you will find all
the light you need, and all that YOU
can use he said He held that with
such a desire and Willingness man is
led to do the things most essential to
Christian life. Dr. Biederwolf point
ed the futility Of a good life by quot
ing the statement of the bible that
all such deeds. unless done in the
spirit of Jesus Christ. are but as rags
IN the sight of Christ
Under True CoIors.
DR.. Biederwolf spoke of the hest
fancy of some to confess Christianity.
and deprecated this inclination. The
world admires a man who stands
strong for his convictions. IF YOU are
an infidel or a sleptic. get under Your
true colors. The world demands from
you 4 confession of your affiliations
DR. Biederwolf assigned three rea-
sons, in answering the question of why
preparation is necessary. The first
reason he gave is that it is necessary
for every person TO stand before God
on the judgment day and answer for
this life. He spoke of the fact that to-
day no learned scholars teach that the
soul ends with the end of the physi-
cal life. God leaves it with you to
either take the left or the right road,
but it is not left with you to wait till
that judgment day and then make your
choice. 1t is matter of now" An
other reason he assigned was the aw-
fulness of standing at judgment with
out preparation, and with the load Of

MUT|NEER SCOTT
TO Be HUNG
TO-DAY
First of Three Negro Murder
ers to Pay Penalty-An
Awful Crime.
Associated Pres. to The Evening Time.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
Washington, D. c., July 6.-This is
the date set for the execution of Henry
Scott, the first of the three negro
mutineers to pay the death penalty for
the bloody crimes enacted on the
schooner Harry A. Berwind on her
voyage from Mobile to this city last
October. SCOTS accomplices. Robert
Sawyer and Arthur Adams, are under
sentence to be hanged here next month
and with their execution the last sur
vivor of the Inflated ship will disap-
pear.
1t was on October IL last that the
four-masted schooner Harry A. Ber-
wind, her decks and cabin splotched
with blood, was towed into Southport
by Wilmington tugs. Aboard was a
prize crew of the New York schooner
Blanche H. King, in charge of the
three shackled and covering negroes
who were chaAHed with having mu-
tined and killed in cold blood the cap
tain, mate and a fellow shipnate.
The story in detail is a bloody and
terrible one, surprising almost the
imagination of writer's of the most
lurid tales of the sea. Sawyer and
Adams were tried Jointly and convicted
largely on the testimony of Scott, who
took the stand against them. Scott
told the story of the voyage of the
Burwind, from the time she left Phil
adelphia in July, with the same crew
on board as at the time of the mutiny,
going to Cardenas, Cuba, and thence to
