CONVERTING INFIDELS.
Must Be Easy to the Preacher but His
Conversions Seem Mighty Few.
(By Joe b. Thorn.)

Recently | went to the Baptist church to
hear a certain w. E. Neil, of Sherman,
Texas, speak. He is from a town that |
know quite well, and being from the same
State also, | thought | would go to church
to celebrate the occasion. His lecture hap
pened to be on the delicate subject of inf
deity. Among other things, he said;-
"There are four chief causes for Infdel-
ity. The main one is that the Christians
don't live up to their teachings; and the
Infdel says if that is Christianity | don t
want any. Another thing is, the difficulties
in the Bible itself. Il agree with him.
Jonah and the whale. for instance.)
He explained that this was merely mis-
translated, and that in place of Il whale, it
should have been Il sea monster 0T Il very
large fish. He also said that if God could
make State as large as Texas and world
as big us this one, that he didn't see why
he couldn't make a fish large enough to
swallow man.
He told of an frffide headquarters some
where down South. 1t was noted for its
number of unbelievers, and published Il
little atheist literature. Well, 10 make Il
long story short, he went to the town and
promised that if an Infidel would come reg
ularly for ten days to his meetings and
wasn't converted, he would throw away his
Bible and quit preaching. He said that an
old Infidel would come in every meeting
and sit down in the back of the church, and
when preaching was over, would not wait
for the music, but would get up and leave.
According to Mr.. Neil, the lnfdel was GO
ing to come ten days and then brand him
a liar if he didn't carry out his part of the
agreement About the 9Th or 9th day, Mr..
Neill prayed to his dear heavenly Father
that the said Inidel would get sick and
couldn I come at all; but God answered his
prayers in another way. On the ninth day
the Infdel got converted, and came up to
the altar and knelt down, while Mr.. NELL
yelled the doctrine of hell and everlasting
damnation into his ears.
Such is one of the most remark able con-
quests of history. Mr.. Neil said that if he
had failed he believed that he would rather
have been branded liar than to have quit
preaching, and DETAINED the Holy Ghost by
throwing it away.
According to Mr.. Neil, the way to con
vert an Infdel is to practice what you
preach, and to read the Bible through and
not misinterpret it.
He states that he never saw an honest
Infdel. and that he didn't believe it was
in their power to be good, as they had moth
ing to live for. Infdels have no grounds for

INSPIRED POETRY.
by The Chaplain.)

\ SpirituaIist lady friend tells us that
some poetical spirit on the other shore in
spires us As proof. she reads spirit stories
from the "Progressive Thinker" and |
listen to the ordeal. As Bro. Moore was
somewhat of a poet. perhaps it is his spirit
inspiring us in the early morn-though it is
rather late hours for him. 3 IA. m.
The Chaplain.
The story of Good creating this sod
Is the funniest story they tell;
From nothing to build. and then to be
filled
With people that are bound for hell
Is the funniest thing; how people will
cling
To the shadows of a ghostly past
Quite puzzles my mind; they must be
blind
To think that their visions can last.
That ship at sea, 'twixt you and me,
With Jonah on board for sail,
Was Il cracker jack. but IN non on to the
knack
How Jonah went down in the whale.
So | m forced to say, while the preachers
pray,
And tell such stories as that,
They are all damn liars,-( Moore's spirit
now fres)
But don care "drop of the hat 4"
That sweet Jewish girl sets my head in
whirl,
The way that she peopled the earth.
For her ghostly mash must have cut quite
dash
While Joe was asleep by his hearth.
The Bible revise of pack of lies
BY those who would still uphold.
Is criminal sure but science will cure.
It's struggling i'll death for hold.
