meetings. Those who have never
known Christ are being brought
into the kingdom of God, those
whose hearts have grown cold
are being restored to His favor,
and are again experiencing the
peace and JOY of His salvation.

On Monday night four sought
Christ at the altar, and three Of
the number professed 10 have
found Him as personal Savior;
on Tuesday night eight came
forward and six received evidence
Of sins forgiven.
On Wednesday night the
crowning victory Of all precious
victories was gained. Gods
Spirit was manifested in such
mighty power, on that occasion,
that a deep feeling of awe and
reverance rested upon the entire
assemblage. Sixty-fve persons
felt constrained, through Gods
goodness and mercy to them,
and to others about them, to
bear testimony to His saving
and keeping power. The piece
entitled "Shall you shall 1" was
sung as duet, at the turn of
the meeting, and many we're led
by the Holy Spirit to ask them
selves the questions, "Shall /
be one who will enter through
the pearly gates into the heaven
Iy Jerusalem, or will / be one
who will be eiernally lost in
Hell?" The altar was soon filed
with earnest seekers. Some wept
and prayed aloud for salvation.
Not only did the mercy drops
fall upon these seeking souls =,
but showers of blessings came,
and soon twelve Of the fourteen
who knelt al the altar, received
the clear evidence of their accep.

went out. Immediately, to seek

The waves Of salvation are ris
irg high and higher, and the
tide is setting in toward God =,
more and more. Many are fall
ing before the power and gre at
ness Of these on coming waves,
but are arising in newness Of
life, with their sins all washed
away in Jesus blood and with
the "new song" upon their lips.
Thorough heart searching and
cool, deliberate decision for
Christ have characterized these
individual professions of RELIGION.
Prayers are ascending to Gods
throne from sincere and honest
hearts, for the salvation of
friends and loved ones, and it is
reasonable to suppose, yea, to
firmly believe that a still larger
in gathering of souls will be the
result Of this faithfulness in the
ministry of prayer.
The meetings for the past
three nights have been exceed

advancement noticed in all parts
Of the services. The testimonial
services are still given a prom

CANAL BILL is in DOUBT
President May Have to Garry Out His
own idea I'm Regard to
Type.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE senate
committee on interoceanic canals heard
with many msgivings the reported state
ment by Representative Hepburn that the
house committee would not be willing to
accept the senate hearings to determine
the type OF canal to be constructed across
the isthmus of Panama This is taken as
an indication that congress will not be able
to agree upon a bill deciding the type OF
the waterway unless the session OF con-
gress is long continued.
In the event that no bill is passed the
appropriations committee undoubtedly
would report the amount necessary to carry
on the work until the next session. and the
canal commission would proceed with the
construction OF a lock canal under the plans
advocated by the minority OF the Board OF
Consulting Engineers.
President Roosevelt, I'm his message trans
hitting TO congress the reports OF the ma
jority and the minority of the board. said
that he favored the latter, which was for
a lock canal. and that II the question were
not determined by congress that type would
be constructed. This offers a solution II
the opposing factions should be unable TO
agree.
