and sinners euchre.' She argued that. as a man that used to gamble. pr. Torrey s'ought to play pretty game of euchre." and that he should. for the same reasons. know all about the different kinds of euchre. Dr. Torrey was not nattered by the faith of his correspondent. but he appeared to be amused. Reading the letter. he interspersed comments to the follow ing purport; of euchre. Did you? don't know very much about euchre. except that 1t is a game that doesn't require ahy brainsp>fo master. used to play games that you couldn't win at, unless you had brains. I played draw-poker and won. I also played seven-up. If had been asked a question about either one of these. might have been able to give an intelligent answer-- they are intelligent games.
 This lady. who signs herself .Ars. $! Whitero,' and may not be at all, asks for fair play She says that she is an onlooker only. but she wants to know if 1t isn't just as bad to play cards for prizes openly as do the play CTS of sinners euchre;' as to play for souvenirs 'hypocritically.' as do the players of religious euchre.'
 VIII reply now, that IT you are going to play cards anyhow. and re- gardless of anything. play cards open ly. and not deceitfully. am against all kinds of card-playing. deceitfur as well as open. No real Christian will play cards But if you are going tor sell your soul for card games. sell it for a game that is not foolish and inane--like euchre-but> for . game that that Is worth while-like draw poker.
 The lady says that she is a locker on in Jerusalem'-whatever that means. She has asked for fair play one of the ministers suggested that she might mean fair deal. think have given her one. and I will give her name. too," which he did. saying at the same time that should any one come to him and claim that name and say at the same time that she was not the author of the letter. he would be led to believe that 1t was an anonymous communication.
 Both meetings were well attended yesterday, the afternoon sermon at- tracting a large number of people. In the morning, pr. Torrey preached a special sermon to ministers, in which he told them the ideal for which q minister should strive; what things minister should shun, and how to or-' ganize a church in order to do the best Christian work.

NO GOOD ROADS BILL
SENATOR BANKHEAD LOSES HIS
 AMENDMENT.
Penrose Makes Point of New LeEis- latlon and is Sustained-MOre Government Experts for
 Sixth District.

Washington, Feb. 25.-(SpeciaL)- Senator Bankhead secured an amend ment to the agricultural appropriation ill~before 1t was reported to the Sem ate. auth orizing the Department to conduct certain experiments in aid of the good roads movement.
 When the pafagraph was reached to- day Senator Penrose made point of order that 1t was new legislation and had no place in an appropriation bill. The point was sustained but before the ruling was made Senator Bankhead made an argument In which he urged that the item should remain. He said the people of this country were en- gagged in a general movement to i'm prove the dirt roads in the interest of the transportation of agricultural pro- duets and he thought they should be encouraged.
 Senator Bankhead says he will try another method of getting this matter through and hopes to succeed.

Afternoon Service.

Afternoon Service.
 ''The Holy Spirit. Fully and For ever Satisfying Those Who Receive Him. was the subject of pr. Torrey's sermon yesterday afternoon. The text was John iv, 14, But whosoever drink eth of the water that shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that sf water springing up into everlasting life." Dr. Torrey said in part:
 "The Holy Spirit becomes within the believer a well of water springing up into everlasting life. Go to whatever earthly fountain we will. and we thirst again. The more you drink at the fountains of wealth and other worldly pleasure, the more thirsty for them you become. But drink of the living waters and you are fully and forever satisfied.
 "The Holy Spirit is a source of glad ness within our own hearts. It Is a great thing to have the source of joy within our own hearts. for 1t makes us independent of our environment. It springs up with the greatest power in the times of greatest sorrow"
 To illustrate. this point, pr. Torrey told of the sudden death of one of his children. and of the great comfort he obtained from the Holy Spirit. The audience was in tearS during his re- cital. After the sermon woman came to him and said that he had described her experience exactly< pr. Torrey continued:
 "If we have the spirit of joy within us, 1t makes us independent of worldly pleasures. Why. then, do Christians rim off after the worlds pleasures! For one of two reasons: either, they have never received the Holy Spirit, which Is true of many protesting Chris tians. or the fountain has become choked by sin or worldly conformity"
 EVENING SERMON.
 The subject of Dr. Torrey's sermon last night was "One of the Saddest Ut- terances That Every Fell From the Idns of the Son of God ."The text was, Holm V. 40, "Ye will not come to Me. that ye might have life" pr. Torrey answered two questions in this sermon, "Why any man is lost?" and why men will not come to Christ.
 He said that a man Is lost simply be- cause he will not come to Christ. ti) No man is lost because he needs to pc lost: (2) No man Is lost because he has gone down so deeply into sin; (3) No man is lost because he IS 100 weak to lead the Christian life.
 Men will not come to Christ for seven reasons: CD Sin is keeping more men and women from Christ than almost anything else; (2) The love of money keeps many men from coming to Christ: (3) The love of pleasure; t4l The fear of other mems opinion; lS) An unforgiving spirit. hatred; (6) Self will stands between many person and Christ and eternal life; and CD Pride Is perhaps keeping more men and wo- men away from Jesus than anything else.
