TIE FALL
OF JERICHO
A STORY OF THE CONQUEST OF
CANAAN
BY the "Aiohwny aud Bywsy" Preacher.
sERMoNETTE.

"And the Lord said unto
> Joshua, See, ! have given into
3 thine hand Jericho, and the king
. thereof, and the mighty men of
2 valor."
. God gives men visions Of
great Victories that are possible
0 of realization because his on,-
2 impotence is behind them.
. Men dream of conquest. Men
plan large things apart from
. God. But the dream never be-
3 comes anything but dream and
. the plans gang aft a-elee."
3 What disappointments life
Q holds for those who plan and
3 work and strive apart from God.
. Solomon, the man of rare
3 gifts, and wonderful achieve
. ments, turns at last from the
3 sphere of human endeavor,
. which is temporal, and cries: 81
. know that whatsoever God doeth,
. it shall be forever"
. Joshua early in his career as
9 leader of the children of Israel
> caught this vision of the sure
2 working of God, and to him God
. gave the assurance of victory
2 along the lines of his will.
. There was Jericho great and
= strong, her massive walls seem
. inGiy impreenabIe; there was
her king, proud and defiant;
. there were the mighty men of
2 valor ready to die in defense of
. the city.
: This was what Joshua saw
. perhaps before he sought out
= the Lord and obtained vision
. from the Divine viewpoint.
: But after that ii was no long
. er the strong walled city and
: the powerful king and the mighty
? men of valor which he saw, but
) rather that city low in the dust,
that king and his army within
) his power
, Such was the vision; such was
D tie promise of God. But as
Joshua went out the next day
) the city was still there, the king
? was stiIl on his throne, the
) mighty men of valor still watch
? ing on the wall.
; There was much to do to
, make the vision a reality; to
) claim the promise of God. But
2 the vision ard the promise were
, the goal ahead towards which
: unhesitatingly and unyieldinaly
, Joshua strove. He knew he
should attain, because God had
, Willed it.
: Look UP, o christian! Catch

, There is many a Jericho in
Thy life that must be conquered

has purposed to give you.

THE STORY.

THE day on which the children of
l Israel C. c.ossed Jordan was day
of terror in Jericho. The spies which
the king had sent out to watch the
movements of the Israelites had re-
turned in haste telling strange sto-
ries of how the waters of the Jordan
had divided and the people and all
their fiocks and herds had crossed
over on the dry bed of the river, and
were even now on their way to attack
the city.
In their excitement and alarm the
10000 fighting men which had crossed
the river in advance had been magni-
fed into a great army, and quickly
the orders were given that the city
gates be closed tight and a double
guard be placed upon the wall, All
the fighting men of the city were
speedily summoned and slept upon
their arms that night expecting that
an assault might be made upon the
walls under cover of darkness.
That was a terrible night in Jeri.
cho. People ran through the streets
like mad. cursing and fighting with
each other in their wild terror, and
alternately shouting maledictions
upon the Israelites and their God and
calling upon their gods to hear them
and help them.
Rahab and her kinsfolk gathered
with her in her little house upon
the wall listened to the tumult with

raelites had taken the city But no,
1t could not be, for that evening as
the sun had set and Rahab had gone
to the window to see that the scarlet
cord, the pledge of her deliyeranee,
was still in its place at the side of
the easement, she had looked out
across the plain and had seen the
Israeltes peacefully eneamped.

thing that straight young man
should not do until the "turpentine
man" came out on the bayou and
said 10 old man Etienne that he
would give him three dollars hun

his strip of 10000 pine trees. And
that very same day Pierre came to

Pierre take a bottle of whisky down
into the bend of the bayou and
get drunk. Yes, and stay drunk,
sleeping most of the time till the
bottle was empty.
1t was the suck of oars in their
locks that woke him. Then voices
came, and he listened:

'Pourquoi ?"

The suck of the oars died away.

sober he went down to the store

store he was saying under his
breath: "Il y les autres poissons

she had no shoes on. Pierre sat

The Old Man Cave, known to
many of the citizens nf this coun-
ty, and situated near Cedar Grove,
suppo ed to take it's name from
the old man and his dog, that eX-
plured, and lived in this cave in
the 18th Century. The Old Man
was supposed to have no other
companions except his dog and
gun. We noticed written or en-
craven in Old English on the face
of the rocks, the name of the old
man, dog and gun. We also
noticed the place where the old
nlan and his dog slept. Had q
place here his gun laid. These
places were plainly indicated.
The old mans name was given as
Retzler, and the name of his dog
was Harper, and his gun pointer,
bearing the date of 1902. The
Old Mans Cave is about 800 yards
long and it's width is about one
half its length. 1t is on an ele-
vation of about 10 feet above the
sparkling water of Cedar Valley.
The most interesting part of cur
story of the Old Mans Cave is yet
to come as you will notice further
on. Not long ago two boys were
exploring the Old Mans Cave,
after they had been roaming
through the cave for some time,
they evidently became weary and
built ire within the limits of the
cave, and sat down to rest. Hear
ing rustic and footsteps near
them, they looked and what was
their surprise to see, an old man
with long gray hair and beard of
a monstrous length, wearing old
fashioned clothes and moccasins
on his feet, gun on his shoulder,
and Il dog walking ut his side.
The old man and his dog passed
the boys. The old man looked at
the boys with smile, but said
nothing to them, and the dog look
ed straight ahead, and stayed
close to his master. The boys
We're amazed at the strange actions
of the old man and dog, and so
kept close watch after the mys-
terious man and dog. They walk
ed around the cave looking every
where and finally they came to
standstill at one place near the
edge of the rocks. On these
rocks were considerable writing
concerning the old man and his
dog, and not far from this place
was considerable depression or
place lower than the rest of the
ground around it. And to this
place it seemed tn t the old man
and his dog were particularly at
tracted. The boys told of their
adventures in the Old Man Cave
and of the mysterious stranger
that came 10 the cave while they
were the e; and of where he went
in the cave and II his stand still
at this one certain place before
mentioned. With the help of a
tourist we thought we would find
out if we could, the mission of the
mysterious man with his dog and
gun. Securing mattock, pick, and
shovel, we proceeded to the place
pointed out by the boys, where
the old gray headed man and his
dog dwelt SO long, and then sank
at once into the ground. We have
already mentioned that on the
face of the rocks at this place were
writings concerning the old man
and his dog. We have also said
that there was depression near
the base of the rocks. 1t seemed !
that the ground in this place had
sunk, or from cause had yielded
its pressure IN such manner that
it made it noticeable to the eye of
the tourist, that the depression

secure water from creek bed in that

practically dry, but it is runorod
that there is au underflow of water
which amounts to considerable sup

secures He will reclaim as much

in case the water rights are sufficient
