BEAUTIF il PLAY
AT THE BUTLER
THIS EVENING

The first Passion play OF which
there is any record was in the
fourth century a. D.. among the
Greeks, and was called "Christos
Paschon.' All through the middle
ages different dramas Of this nature
were portrayed chiefly BY religious
orders. During the Crusades many
similar plays were given for the
purpose of stimulating the people
60 activity IN the saving of the
Holy City from the hands Of the
saracena
In 1888 the village Of oberam-
mergm. Ia Bavaria. WAS visited by
Ia terrible plague. on its cessation
the entire population made a vow
to perform the Passion play for our
Savior every tenth year. out OF
gratitude, and as a means Of reli-
aious instruction Il vow which has
ever since been faithfully observed.
The inhabitants of this secluded
village have rare union of artis-

EUGENE Ore, April 15 sena-

this city just before noon today.
and was warmly greeted by the
throng that had assembled al the
depot to see the distinguished Wis
eonsin statesman At the Univer-
sity of Oregon he spoke to the
students and tremendous gather
ing, After this he went to the
country and spoke to the farmers
along the line. Mr.. La Toilette
ridiculed President Taft as states
man and added that he had been
born in luxury and with a golden
spoon in his mouth He claimed
that IL had never been his lot to
have ever worked a day in his life,
and that everything he possessed
had been brought to him on cush-
ions of silk and satin
In the course of his discussion OF
the political complexion at the
present time, Mr.. La Toilette said
that during the Taft administration
the people had lost more rapidly
their possessions and ground than
eger before in the history of the
nation He said the vital question
and fundamental principal at this
time was: "Can the 90,000.000 OF
inhabitants within the confines OF
this great nation regain the righi
to govern themselves" Mr. La Fol
lette was given the greatest ova
tion any statesman has ever re
Ceiyed in this city.

Lester Moody has done excellent

Every member of the Lowry evan

'The results of the meetings are

MONEY are the big words in the vo-
cabulary of many evangelists. OF
course, the union evangelist usually
avoids the second, but Mr. Lowry is
as fair in this regard as can be ex-
pected in union work. Fire is written
in livid, lurid letters in his preaching
but this is true of all evangelists.
''The most gratifying thing, to me,
in Mr.. Lowrys preaching is his con-
slant appeal to the Word of God in
support of every proposition as the
only and final arbiter in matters of
salvation. His wide range of subjects
leaves little else to be desired Sub
jects about which the ordinary evengel-
list is as silent as the grave, but which
occupy large place in Scripture, are
presented regardless of UNCONVENTIONAL
ignorance, prejudice or false emphasis.

the Return of the Jews to Palestine,

An EpOch-Making Revival
(By Rev Robert Warner.)

'"The Lowry-Moody meeting has re-
suited in the greatest awakening this
city and community has doubtless ever
witnessed
"The meeting had many elements of
greatness.
"First-A great tabernacle was con-
structed which in itself helped to eX-
pand the often contracted ideas Of
many
"Second-It has brought together the
Christian forces and workers of the
community as one great church and, in
unity there is strength
'Thlrd-The great chorus under the
skilled leadership of Prof. George
Moody has been an important factor in
gathering the crowds of people and
making all the people sing
"Fourth-The great sermons preach
ed by Evangelist Oscar Lowry have
gripped the hearts and consciousness
of the people Of all classes until re-
ligion has been the chief topic of
conversation In all circles. Mr. Low
rvs sermons are Biblical, logical and
convincing. They have compelled men
to think and act for eternity.
'Fifth-The work of Mrs. Moody in
her addresses to women and high
school girls as we'll as her personal
work in the congregation and homes

the very moment that he was liberated
from this house of clay to be at home
with the Lord The Lord has not seen
fit to reveal to us much about the state
between death and the resurrection,
except that we shall be with the Lord
Jesus Christ. that is, those who die
trusting in Christ. We find by much
Scripture teaching that the wicked sink
into hades and are there confined in
state of torment until the judgment
of the great white throne, when they
shall be resurrected, judged and sent
away into a lake of fire.
s'They are now in state of torment,
as we see in the case of the rich man,
but their final end will be the lake OF
fire. Rev. XXX, Is: whatsoever was
not found written in the book of life
was cast into the lake of fire. We
find the resurrection of the body taught
in the Old Testament. While the Old
Testament in the main is book of
laws, regulations and promises, yet we
find in it proof OF the resurrection.
Turn, first of all, to what by many is
considered the oldest book in the Bible:
Job XIX, 26: And though after my
skin worms destroy this body, yet in
my flesh | shall see God. Job lived
about 800 years before Christ, yet we
find him looking forward to the resur-
rection. Daniel XII, 2, And many of
them that sleep in the dust OF the earth
shall awake, some to everlasting life
and some to shame and everlasting
contempt In the New Testament we
find the teaching concerning the resur-
rection of the body abundant, indeed.

many references. John XII, rs

eth on me, though he were dead, yet
shall he live again" John ", &c 2S, |

Il think we ought to engage Mr.
Lowry at once for month next year.
This and similar comments from
great numbers of earnest workers in
the meetings are the kind that fire.
quently come to me. Of course every
one in Moscow is not pleased. Mr..
Lowry has attacked sin and worldli-
ness too fearlessly to please those who
indulge in the things he denounces
and who refuse to put them out of their
lives. But to us who have worked
shoulder to shoulder with him: to
those who have received glimpse of
the great heart, the deep piety and
the earnest conservation that typify
the spirit of the man, he is the channel
through whom God has poured out
blessing of marvellous richness and
power upon our community.
1.-THE evangelistic party in it's per-
sonnet seems to me to be almost ideal.
Prof Geo. Moody has few equals and
rarely superior as a director of a
great chorus choir and leader in con-
gregational worship in song, while his
solos are chosen with care and sung
with power. In personal work among
he women and girls Mrs Moody ex-
erts power and influence of rare
luality. Among the young men Lester
Moody is congenial spirit who seeks. |
With real success, to lead them to his |
Christ. But the secret of the great |
success of the work is found in the |
personality and power of the evangel- |
st, Mr.. Lowry. His message is che
# denunciation of sin, and a beauti-
I'll presentation of the power of GOD
0 save from sin and bring peace and
aviation to lost souls.
A spirit Of real harmony and bro
herly accord exists among the affjli-
ted churches, more than ever before
o each church has come quickening
the spiritual life of it's membership
