| invisible consists of all the redeemed.
The church visible Is composed OF All
those throughout the world VINO pro-
fess faith In Jesus Christ, togetner WIN
their children, and 1t is the outy OF
all believers openly to profess tneir
faith by uniting with the church. Tne
church exists to bring to Christ those
whom the Father has given him, and
to establish the Redeemers Kingdom.
The mission Of the church Is spiritual.
and its work In to witness to the truth
of God to the ends Of the earth. ana
to preach the gospel to all men IN
every generation. We believe in the
separation Of church and state. the
scriptural form of church government
Is by elders or presbyters, CHOSEN py
the members OF the church: but we
do not regard the form of government
of a church az essential to its exist
ence. We recognize the validity OF
the ministry and sacraments OF all
evangelical churches. and seek the
unity of the Spirit in the bonds OF
peace. Ministers, elders and deacons.
at their ordination, are required to
subscribe to the system OF doctrine
contained In our standards, but the
sole condition for membership In the
church Is a credible confession OF
XIII. The Sacramento.
There are two sacraments. baptism,
which symbolizes the work Of the
Holy Spirit. and the Lords supper.
which symbolizes the sacrincial death
of Christ. Sprinkling or pouring fs
the scriptural mode or baptism, but
the mode is not essential to the valid
ity Of the sacrament. Children of
believers. before reaching the age of
personal accountability, are to be bap-
tized on the faith of their parents,
who in the sacramental act enter into
covenant relations with God. We in
wife to the Lords table all who. love
him in sincerity and truth and who
are in good and regular standing In
evangelical churches.
XIV. Death and Resurrection.
The souls Of believers are at their
death made perfect in holiness; and
do Immediately pass into glory, and
their bodies, being still united to
Christ, do rest in the grave till the
resurrection. At the resurrection. be-
levers being raised up in glory. shall
be openly acknowledged and ac-
quilted in the day Of judgment. and
made perfectly blessed in the full en-
joyment Of God to all eternity: but the
wicked shall go away into everlast-
ing punishment.
XIV. The Final State.
There are but two states Of future
existence. heaven. the home of the
redeemed. and hell, the abode of the
finally impenitent. There is no pur-
satory, nor Is there any probation af-
ter death. Man retains his Identity
after death. and there will be recog-
milton in the future life. We believe
in the ultimate and complete triumph
of the Saviour's kingdom, and with
all his followers In all ages we toll
and pray for the speedy coming Of
the day when our glorious Lord shall
see of the travail of his soul and shall
be satisfied.

A. Bloch, one of Donaldsonville's lead.
ing merchants, who announces a grand
fall bargain sale at his popular Ban

TTI UNCONSTITUTIONAL
INVENTION

The eighty delegates who are to
compose the Louisiana constitution
al convention called to meet at Baton
Rouge November 10 were duly elected
Tuesday, Oct. 20, and all by virtually
unanimous vote, since there was no
organized opposition in any parish
or in any of the wards Of New Or
leans to the Democratic nominees.
It is conceded at this time that
Hon. Newton G. Blanchard Of Caddo,
who served once before, in 1879, as
a state constitution maker, will be
the unanimous choice of the dele
gates for president OF the eonyen-
uion. Mr.. Blanchard has also oc-
cupied the high positions of member
Of congress, United States senator,
associate justice Of the supreme court
and governor Of the state, and there
is probably no man in Louisiana bet
ter qualified to fill the chair of the
presiding officer and assist in guild
ing the deliberations and shaping
the work of the coming convention.
Every Indication points to the same
degree of harmony and unity in the
other proceedings of the body as is
forecasted with regard to the selec-
ton of a president. All the people
and all the material interests Of LOU
lsiana are concerned in the preser-
walton Of the commemorative credit
and honor, now involved in the pro-
visions to be made for the refunding
and redemption of the bonded state
debt which natures with the expira-
ton of the current year. The con-
sututional convention is intrusted
with this vitality important public SER
vice, and that the mission will be
successfully accomplished we have
not moments doubt.

Sounding Bayou Lafouret1e.

Engineer R. G. Lynn, of the United
States engineer corps, was here this
week making soundings in Bayou La
fourche and otherwise Investigating
the condition of that stream. He
will determine whether a sufficient
depth OF water is being maintained
to permit navigation, as was prom
lsed by the Lafourche and Atchafa-
laya leyee boards when they secured
permission from the federal govern
ment to erect a dam across the
mouth Of Bayou Lafourche at DON
aldsonville. Mr.. Lynn is an ardent
advocate of the construction of locks
here, and says the conditions now
present in Bayou Lafourche are a
distinct menace to the health of this
community, to. say nothing of the
immense loss from a commercial
standpoint caused by the lack of con-
neetion between the bayou and river.
