Revival Meetings Largely
AtterGed.

This is being observed as day of
fast and prayer by the revival work.
ers in Grand Forks. This morning,
many prayer meetings. were held in
all parts of the city at the homes of
citizens, and all were remarkably we'll
attended. Some fifty prayer meetings
in all were held.
At noon today, the regular service
was held at the Ontario store. This
meeting was we'll attended, and the
speakers at that time were excellent.
At the Methodist church Wednesday
evening, Rev. Hunt was the speaker.
He took for his topic IFS Morality
Enough?" using as his text, Mark 10
II. His entire sermon was listened
to with great attention. The young
man In the text, although possessing
great riches, had not enough. He said
among many other good things that
the rich young man was not satisfied
and he came to Jesus with great
earnestness. not carelessly or totter-
ing, but running, and asked saying:
Good Master, what shall do that
I may inherit eternal life?"
At the end of that wonderful inter-
view the rich young man went away
sorrowful. There is no evidence that
he was ever saved. Some have tried
to find him elsewhere in the scrip
lures, but nothing definite is known Of
him. Jesus did not send him away.
Must Have More.
Why is 1t, If morality is enough,
that we do not get better and better
Jesus said: Eye must be born again"
Many people have been highly moral;
one may be very moral and get lost.
Except We be born again ye cannot
enter the kingdom of Cod" Jesus
gave very exact truths here. We were
taking these statements from His own
lips. Our paths have been crooked.
We would blot out much of our past
If We could. Why is not morality
enough? It is question whether
there is any morality. Mr. Hunt said
he used to be great admirer of In
gersoll, but was sorry he had been so
foolish.
The only requirement that is made
to obtain Christ's life Is belief in him
and repentance for sin. The church is
the only place where the doors are
thrown open and it is free. The
church is the place to perfect people.
Is o Difference.
You cannot compare individuals. 1t
takes more to make some men decent
than to make others pure and happy.
Is Morality enough? Jesus said no.
The lawyer was bound by the code; a
minister ie bound by the Bible. Nor
ality is. an outward effect: Christiani-
ty is within.

WENT TO TEA
And It Wound Her Bobbin.

Tea drinking frequently affects people as badly as coffee. A lady in Salisbury, Md, says that she was compelled to abandon the use of coffee a good many years ago, because 1t threatened to ruin her health, and that she went over to tea drinking, but finally she had dyspepsia so bad that she had lost twenty-five pounds and no food semed to agree with her.
 She further says: At this time l was induced to take up the famous food drink. Postum and was so much pleased with the results that I have never been with out 1t since. 1 commenced to improve Tt once, regained my twenty-five pounds of flesh and went some beyond my usual weight
 T know Postum to be good pure, and healthful and there never was an article. and never will be, 1 believe, that does so surely take the place of coffee as Pos tum Food Coffee. The beauty of it all is that 1t is satisfying and wonderfully nour- shing. l feel as it l could not sing its praises too loud Read 'srhe Road tn wellville," in pkgs. There's a Rea- son"

NOW IS THE TIME
 ID BUY LUMBER
Dealers Think Prices Are At
 the Bottom Notch
YARDS ARE OVERSTOCKED
Bad Car Service in Winter and Spring Caused Dealers to Order More Lumber Than They Ex-
 pected Delivered.

Now Is the time for any who contem- plate building in the near future to buy lumber. It is the opinion of prominent lumber men of the city that the low water mark in prices has been reached. Some say that the demand for building material has not lessened appreciably, but that the orders for the lumber were given several months ago. Very flow or ders are being received just at present but the number to be filled is as great as usual
 II. II. She'll manager of the Lathrop Lumber company attributes the low prices just at present to another cause. He said yesterday:
 "The low price lumber is bringing just now ia due to one or two causes. The primary cause in my opinion is the fact that for six or seven months prior to the first of last May 1t was almost an m- possibility to get a sufficient number of cars in which to ship lumber. The re- tail lumber dealers ordered from one company and falling to receive the con slgnment placed a similar order with oth- CT companies, hoping to receive a ship l ment from one of them at least. After the first of May the tle-up in the railroad systems was dlsspated and the buyers be- gan to receive more lumber than they could dispose of. The supera abundance. of lumber in the yards would necessarily cause a fall in prices.
 Although lumber Is cheaper now than 1t has been for ninety days, still I think the outlook is good for lumber is as cheap now as 1t will ever be. As sooa as the excess of lumber now in the yards hag un1A nffan mill r1f f.,f, rise. It can hardly be otherwise. Lum- Der is getting more scarce every year. The cost of labor is becoming rapidly greater. Today we are paying twice as much for timber land and twice as much for labor as we did five years ago. Nor is the labor we employ now as efficient as 1t was at that time. Then we worked practically the same hands day in and day out, but the laboring classes have become restless and we have to take on many new men every day.
 After consideration of these condi- tions it is very easy to predict that the days of cheap lumber have gone forever
 Should prices ever be lower in Bir- mlngham 1t will only be because of a financial depression or panic. The people cannot Dssp a benefit at such a time, however, for there will be no money with which to buy.
 Reference has often been made to the Jumper lruSlb. oucn statement lS aD- solutely unfounded. We have associa- tlons and hold meetings and conventions but the question of price regulation Is never raised These associations are formed solely for the purpose of giving to each other the benefit of experience derived from the different methods pur- sued.
 "The steel and iron plants use a large amount of the lumber sold in Birming- ham, We send two cars to them to every one shipped to the yards.'

ROBBERS TAKE AWAY COMPLETE OUTFIT
Suits. Caps, Shirts, Underwear, To hacco and Canned Salmon Missing
 at Second Avenue Store.

Two robbers presumbaly two, since they took a general outfit for two men, broke into the store of S. F. Teague & Co. at 2417 Second avenue Sunday night, took look over the stock of clothing and merchandise. and then selected the ar ticles which appealed to their tastes Two complete suits of wearing apparel were selected, and then some odd pants and hats for every day wear.
 Neither were these deliberate thieves without foresight Good pocket kniv es, caps, shirts, suspenders. socks, under wear, collars and then, to do the thing up fight, they took chewing tobacco enough to last them for year, their favorite brand being Schnapps.
 Preparation for breakfast was then made, so they wound up by taking a quantity of Arbuckle's coffee, Vienna sausages and some salmon steak in cans
 The police have a description of the clothing stdlen as the only clue to work upon.

CHANGES MADE AT
 BIRMINGHAM HOTEL
GRILL ROOM IS TO BE EQUIPPED. INTERESTING STORY OF TILE DESIGN USED IN THE NEW CAFE.

The Birmingham hotel is now under going extensive improvements and repairs which, when completed, will make it equal to any in the city in appearance and ac- commodations. These improvements are in accord with the policy of the proprietor or the hotel, R. D. Cronk, who yester- day spoke of the work that is being done In the hotel and the other great improve ments just contracted for.
 The interior of the hoteI nas lstely been overhauled and put in first-class shape and the rooms In a greater part of the building freshly painted and decorated. On the second floor the big dining room has been remodeled ana will be turned Into the biggest sample room in the city The contract was let yesterday for new steel ceiling for the lobby of the hotel and for the bar and cafe, Four large, handsome chandeliers with eight lights each will be placed in the lobby. which IS to be entirely remodeled. A news stand will be placed in the south end of the lobby and the cigar stand will be removed from its present location to the news stand
 The cafe will be remodeled and con- NtIlcu lIlO d SIiil IDblH anu NilH iHt new tile floor lately laid will be one of the best appointed restaurants in the city, while the service will be equal to 5he best. In connection with the new tile floor of the Birmingham cafe 1t is interesting to know that the design was unwittlnGly modelled after the ancient coat of arms of the city of Birmingham, England, but Mr Cronk was not aware of this until one day last week when an Englishman, latejy arrived in town, was in the hotel, and seeing the design in the floor said: By love, you have an appropriate design in the cafe floor. That ls the coat of arms of Birmingham, England" Mir Cronk re- piled that he had had some trouble in getting the design, but had succeeded after some consultation with authorities and correspondence with people "across the pond"
 In accordance with the policy Of put ting the Birmingham on the highest plane in point of service MT. Cronk has secured the services of J. c. Jackson. formerly chief clerk of the Hotel Florence, whose experience in the large hotels of Chicago and St. Louis will add to the efficiency Of the office force

NEGRO IS CHARGED
 WITH BEING WHITE
Resents the Imputation, and Judge Feagin Finds He Has Made
 Mistake.

You are charged with being white" said Judge Feagin to big black negro yesterday in police court. Guilty or not guilty?"
 The negro looked up in surprise and replied: NO, Boss, I ain't white, en neber wVz'
 Well" said the judge, that's the charge against you, and there must be some reason for it. Who Is the officer that made this arrest? Let him come for ward"
 The judge, in joking humor was ready to go on with the evidence, but 1t hap pened that Policeman Bob White came into the court room and recognized the negro as one which he arrested on the charge of disorderly conduct.
 Judge Feagin then became critical and said policemen should be more careful in making out their charges and not put them down fippantly However, after ad- justlng his specks, and squinting a few more times at the docket he found that it said 'by White" which relieved the poor negro of the disgraceful charge, and meant that Officer White made the arrest.
