FLOOD IN INDIANA
High Waters of 1883 Surpass-
ed in Some Sections.
RIVERS ARE RISING RAPIDLY

Fort Wayne Partially Inundated and
Lafayette Has Like Experience
Traction Service in All Parts of the
state Crippied--AIl Streams on
Rampage--L oss Of Life.
Reports from many sections of In
diana show that the entire state is
In the grip of the worst food in thir-
ty years and in many places the high
waters of 1883 have been surpassed.
Thousands of acres of land in every
river valley are flooded. Thousands
of homes are surrounded and owners
have fled to higher land
In many cases rescuers carried out
the residents in boats and it is feared
that when the more remote districts
are heard from the death list will be
increased
Traction Service Crippled.
Traction service in all parts of In
diana is uncertain. and in some sec
tiOns it has been abandoned entirely.
AT Marion, where the breaking of
Mississinewa river levee forced 500
persons to flee from their homes, no
attempt is made to operate the trac-
ton cars, while at Ellwood, where
break in the Duck creek levee made
300 homeless, property damage is es-
timated at $4,000.
At Lafayette the Wabash river has
reached stage of more than twenty
one feet after rising foot an hour,
and still increasing. There the traf-
fic has suspended and the detention
hospital is under water. The inmates
were rescued before the water reach

Fort Wayne Is Flooded.
Fort Wayne, at the junction of the
st. Mary, the st. Joseph and Maumee
rivers, was flooded. The electric
light plant was submerged and the
town was without light during the
night. The three pumping stations
there were put out of commission and
the town is without fire protection
and the water supply is threatened.
The rivers have reached stages high
er than in twenty years
At KokOmO, Wild Cat creek has
overlooked the southern part of the
town, and a company of Indiana ma
tional guardsmen patroled the sub
merged sections in boats. There the
electric light plant was flooded and
the town is without lights. The
mayor appealed to Governor Ralston,
who authorized the use of the militia.
Human Lives Lost.
The suddenness with which the
flood came caught farmers in every
section of Indiana unprepared and
thousands of head of live stock were
drowned
At Newcastle John Hagner was
drowned in the Blue river while at
Frankfort Ray and Roscoe Roethen-
berger and Wallace Garrison drowned
in Big Wild Cat creek, which at night
fall was mile wide.
At Richmond, Sugar Creek and Big
Wild Cat have overf1owed and many
homes are under water, the inhabit-
ants being removed in boats through
Second-story windows.

that Others uJ,In7 tne same knOwl-
edge, but hot being sanctitled by the
Truth. are made the more discontented
In other words, independence and lib
erty not under the restraints Of sancti-
fcation TO God and His service arc
dangerous to the peace of the world
Thus We see that the most dangerous
elements OF society are those people
who have had more or less contact
with the Gospel and Its liberty-inspir-
ing Message. Not having received the
Truth into consecrated hearts, they are
disposed to use their liberty according
to their own judgment merely, ignor-
Ing the Divine arrangement outlined
IN Gods Word.
Thus we see around US today strife.
Strife In business, and along social
lines and In general masslng Of in
terests amongst the lower classes,
massing OF wealth among the upper
classes and general preparation to de-
stroy one another in sanguinary
struggle for supremacy. The Truth
has begotten a spirit OF liberty; but the
Divine Word having been neglected,
liberty Is in danger Of becoming IL
cense, leading to anarchy and the
wreck of our present civilization.
Became Chrst's Bond Slave.
st. Paul gives the true conception OF
liberty. 1t is freedom to do right. If
all could so use liberty, what bless
ing 1t would be! st. Paul voiced the
sentiments Of Gods truly cOnsecrated
people from his day until now. He ex-
planned that through accepting Christ
he became dead to other masters and
free from the authority Of sin, Satan
and death. But this release was
granted to him on condition that he
would fully give up his own will and
accept, instead, the will of Christ. He
accepted the proposition and declares
that thus be became Christ's bond
slaye.-1 Corinthians 1922.
We perceive his thought The will
is the lever which governs and con-
trolls the mind. Having given up his
will TO Christ, st. Paul was thus more
fully bound to Christ than any earthly
slave has ever been bound.
All accepted by Christ give first their
wills, and thus bind every act word
and thought into subserylency to the
will Of God In Christ. This was st.
Paul's experience, and must be the ex-
perience Of all those who, like st. Paul,
hope to be of the Royal Priesthood,
who will be joint-heirs with Jesus.
To some It might seem terrible cap
tivity to be thus bound as respects
even their thoughts and It would be
terrible to be bound TO any except the
one Master and Head. But to those
who really appreciate the Truth, the
Holy Spirit OF God, to those II Is n
blessed bondage. in which they rejoice.
More and more their minds become
Transformed and renewed.

sage to make them free. So for cen
turtles there followed period of dark
ness, ignorance, superstition. Yet God
was not without His witnesses. A
few retained the spirit Of the Truth,
and were esteemed fqnattal, peculiar,
and had trying experiences amongst
their brethren The cnuse OF this gen
eral lapse into darkness was that the
Word Of God was no longer the Torch.
Instead, the word OF bishops became
the standard, and later the DEGREES of
councils.
BY and by, in Gods Providence, the
Torch Of liberty again was lighted.
Huss in Germany and Tyndale In
Great Britain, became leaders in a
movement to bring forward the Word
of God. The darkness hated the light
and almost extinguished It. Those
who lifted the Torch perished as mar.
tyrs, and Tyndales Bibles were burn.
ed at st, Paul's Place, London.
For time 1t seemed as II the Torch
had been quenched, but later It blazed
forth again, Luther and his associates
held IT up. The bishops who had burn
ed Tyndale's Bibles were themselves
forced ultimately TO produce a transla-
ton. Two Catholic versions of the Bl-
bic and our common English version,
and Luther's version followed.
The Torch fared up, and the whole
world began TO be influenced by It.
The British, the Germans, Scandina-
vians and Dutch. became potent infiu-
ences Of civilization and enlightenment
throughout the world. Today these ma
lions are still In the forefront, Amerl-
ca with them, while the nations which
neglected the Bible. have until now
made little progress. Now all nations
are being influenced by this wonderful
Book, although they know 1t not. The
doctrines which the Bible inculcates
have given TO the civilized world its
high conception of human liberties, hu-
man rights. human equalities.
Danger Now, as TO tho Jews.
What we point out respecting the
Jews and the influence Of their Law
upon them, we must now point out
with respect 10 Christendom and the
Influence of Gods Message today. To
the sanity Jews. the liberty granted
helped them to appreciate the privilege
Of laying down their lives in Gods
service But to the remainder Of the
nation the liberty led on TO greater dis
content and strife.
So it is today. The sanity Of Chris
tendon, blessed by the great promises
of God and inspired by the Truth re-
specting the redemption from sin and
death, are most courageous. But these
having become the servants OF God
manifest their courage by their faith
fulness and loyalty to the principles Of
righteousness, laying down their lives
in the interest of Gods Truth
Here also wo ord No with the Jews,
