The Song Recital.

The sacred song service, given by
Evangelist Carter at the. courthouse
last Tuesday evening, drewan immense
audience. Mr.. Carter, as this COM
munity knows, has marvellous voice,
full of melody. In fact, there was a
sermon in each song rendered. Miss
Esther Nell, who plays the violen most
beautifully, accompanied the singer with
two selections. Every piece rendered
told touching story and at the close
seven or eight persons accepted Christ,
swelling the number who made public
confessions during the Evangelistic
meeting to 158. In entering the court
room every person was expected to
drop silver offering in a hat, the
money togo to Missions. Forty dollars
and seventy cents were raised.

A small Trouble.
OF Edmonton. Metcalfe count

Last Sunday night T. F. Corbin. who
lives in the Penick Smith neighborhood,
came to Columbia and swore out war
rent against Elijah Curry. Geo. Curry,
Will Ed Curry, Penick Curry. Tom
Clark and Russell Kearns, charging
them with destroying his tobacco bed.
The facts in the case, as we gather
them, are about as follows: Mr.. Cor
bin noticed that some one hadlwaIked
across his tobacco bed, and he accused
some one of the above named parties,
all boys. They denied the charge, and
they all met Mr. Corbin, with the
father of the Curry boys, to prove their
innocence. There were boys tracks
across the bed, and one of the accused
said that he made them the day before
while being excited and running after a
squirrel. This did not satisfy Mr.. Cor
bin, and he said he would go to his
house, get his gun, and kill the whole
bunch. He secured his gun and fired
into the crowd, but did no damage. AS
soon as he fired one of the boys drew a
piston and shot at him, slightly wound
ed him on the arm. We talked to
Sheriff Patteson, and Deputy Sheriff A.
D. Patteson, who made the arrests of
all the boys, and they gave it as their
opinion that there was but little in the
case

An Invitation.


"All We who labor. come to me-
Said the Lamb of Calvary.
If of my Father you are blessed
/ will surely give you rest,
Just take my yoke and learn of me,
And from your sins I'll make you free.
Come, poor sinner, come to-day,
You no longer should delay,
Jesus died on Calvary's tree
From all sins to make you free.
Then come to him now while you may,
And he will take your sins away.
The Spirit and the bride say, come.
Then poor sinner, cease to roam.
Come, freely drink, Life's stream is
free"
Jesus now is bidding thee,
He shed his blood on Calvary's cross,
To cleanse poor sinners from all dross
Now is the time, OH. come today,
Seek the Lord now while you may
Believe, repent, be born again,
He will cleanse you from all sin
Then come poor sinner. come today,
And have your sins all washed away
