Evangelist w. II. Mcintosh Closes The Great Revival at
 Forrest City.

The protracted series of sefinsl.ls lss :. and. revival cf religion which was 5sguls in tie Methodist Church four week a go last Sunday by the pastor, Rev. b, L. Wiiforl, assisted by Rev. W, M. Mo Intosh of lula, Miss, and which was later transferred to the Baptist Church becauss of it's larger audito-' rum, still continues to draw im- mense crowds, taxing this the largest church edifice in the city 10 its utmost capacity, and many interested citizens are rightly turned away fer want oi room.
 Services are being held twice daily from lOto II o'clock in the forenoon and beginning at7::3o at night.
 Song service on the public through fares participated in by upwards ot an hun1red children and many grown ups, has been an interesting and beautiful auxiliary to the work. After assem- bling al a stated place up town, and si,oinq prayer and short address, the children marched through the streets singing the beautiful old and ia miliar hymns of our childhood, to the church, wh,re the regular service is held The singing is led by Prof. Tatun, consecrated man, of Jones' boro, who is q masterly leader. Rev. Mcintosh has delivered per haps, two scores of powerful sermons and has created great interest a. mong the people. The stores have closed between 10 and l o'clock eve ry forsnoon during this week, in order 10 give all emoloyes W,lo 50 desired an opportunity to attend the meetings No such an awakening has been ex- oerienced here since the great reviva n the Baptist Church under the lead ership of Ell. Gibb3ny, i1 1894, at which time there were scores of con versions, anl the devil was almost en- | tirely routed from the town.
 Great go cd is being accomplished 1 by these earnest servants of the~Lord and He is blessing their efforts. The services have been protracted much longer than was at first anticipated, and longer than any other service of like nature ever held in Forrest City So far as we know. This has been ne cessary and proper by reason Of the in creasing and intense interest manifes- ted, but the .creachers feel that they they have about fulfilled their mis slor for the present, and the meeting will close to night.
 Up to the present time there have been about l80 professions and re- clanations, about 75 of which will unite with the Methodist Church, ard the others with the several other cilur- ches of this city. Forrest City Times.

 Lovely Spring. charming Spring. Sweet songs to me the birds would

 On wonder hill the cookoo calls, Beslds the mill. the water falls. Would that my life could be re-
 rlHwed
 To sitQnce more beside the mill >aAnd gaze upon the peaceful hills With songs of birds and broken rills. And I have seen the tinted bloom A sweeping o'er the orchard trees Pink and white in month Of June Gliding away on balmy breeze. On highest boughs bluebird sings Its saucy song so clear and shrill. While in the breeze 1t ever swings Or fits across 10 wonder hill.
 Give back to me one day like those From care. from sorrow free And let me rest beneath. once more The sweet, magnolia tree. ~ The pale and pinkey bud and flower That blooms on every hand.
 With syery breeze shakes down a

 That looks like fairy land.

CAIRo-CITY OF REFUGE.

The prospect Of a 50-foot age in
the Ohio river at Cairo. as indicated
In weather conditions, and confirmed
by those in authority in the weather
department. need cause no alarm SO
far as Cairo is concerned Cairo 5
levees are from IS to IS feet high
&c; feet on the Ohio side and So on the
Mississippi SIDE The highest flood
ever known here was 52.2 feet. whi.h
was a foot or more above the top of
the levees as they were at that time,
the water being kept ont Of the city
by means of bulk-heading. The leyees
were raised as soon as practicable
named which is beyond anything the
rivers are likely ever TO reach. More
over the strength o, the leyees has
been more than doubled since that
memorable time
But a flood of 81 feet is sure to
cause a great deal of distress in
towns not so well protected as Cairo
and in the low country near n
rivers Already the first note o.
need is. heard from Shawneetown,
which is likely to be followed by
others. and Cairo will doubtless feel
called upon to render its share of aid
TO the sufferers. even as she did in
the troublous times of the early
eighties when although herself pre-
car.ously situated, she found that
other communities suffered a great
deal more
To begin with. Cairo can extend
cordial invitation 70 people residing
in neighboring towns or sections,
which are In danger Of inundation.
TO come here for safety. Al hough
comparatively few houses are avail
able, room can be made for many of
them in some way, and they will find
the people Of Cairo hospitable
The food will probably be ten
days in reaching its crest here and It
may be nearly a month before it will
sufficiently 10 permit any
work Of restoration in the submerged
lowlands In the meantime well all /
have TO make the best Of the situation
and show a generous good will TO
ward all worthy unfortunates who
may come our way.
