BASE OF SECOND Line
Capture Of Stronghold Means
SIavS Must Retreat.

Berlin, Aug. 27.-The Russian for
tress of Brest-Litovsk has been cap
tured by Teutonic forces. Announce
ment to this effect was made by the
German army headquarters staff.
German and Austro Hungarian
troops stormed the works on the west
ern and northwestern front and sue
ceeded in entering the center fortress.
The Russians, the statement adds,
then gave up the fortress.
The Russian fortress of Brest-Lit-
ovsk. which has just capitulated to
the Austro-German forces, had been
considered one of the strongest for
tresses in Europe and was the south
ern base of the second Russian line
of defenses to which the armies Of
Grand Duke Nicholas retreated after
the fall of Warsaw.
The storming of Brest-Litovsk by
the Teutcnic forces is probably the
most important military achievement
since the fall of Warsaw. The town,
which had a population of about So
600, was one of the most important
depots for and the distributing point
of military supplies near the western
frontier of Russia proper The for
tress was rated by military critics as
a much more important strategic
point than was Warsaw.
The capitulation of Brest-Litovsk
means, in the opinion of military OBJ
servers. that the Russians will be
forced to abandon their second de-
fense line, which extended from Brest-
Litovsk northward to the Baltic base
of Riga.

Last night was the close OF the sec

That man. people have become cen.

Ing these two weeks has been evident
and this feeling was intensified
last night and was more apparent
than at any time previously. -.f a

The solo last night, "Wnat VIII Ye
Do With Jesus,', by Miss Berger, wa
of this character. ..-
Subject: Gods Anger" .4.-, .
Text: Numbers, 1922: And Gods
anger a kindled because he went"
The evangelist said in opening his
address that wherever it is mentioned
in the Scriptures that Gods anger
was kindled it vas always against
those who once knew God and had
forsaken Him."
He further said that che could not
go through these meetings without
sounding this warning, terrible as it
might be-" and that while he wished
he could preach otherwise, duty and
obligation compelled the watchman On
the walls to tell what he saw and
sound the warning. And that eff in
India or China among Il heather peo,
pie l would raise the cross Of Christ
but here there is not a person that
has not heard the love OF Jesus
preached sufficiently to save a dozen
worlds. Hence the necessity OF an.
! other kind OF preaching, terrible as it
may be and unpleasant as it is to the
one WHO has to perform such a duty,
Bnt the time has come when fresh
air IS not sufficient to save lost souls
that have backslidden from their God,
or to bring sinners to ChTist who had
heard His word preached from in
fancy. And that while it is y9Ey hard
to preach love, and mercy effectively
over, a spiritual corpse sometimes a
warning and a plain statement of
facts is necessary" . .r-i..,
AT no time yet. in the two weeks has
Mr.. Wilson spoken so plainly and at
no time has he shown the evils of sin
ming against the Spirit willfully and
%purposely for. the hope Of emolument
or through a hardness CT heart and
willful neglect, Of what a man knows
to be right and his duty to do.
The. altar service has a ring of an
cid time revival more intensely tha1
at any previous meeting. And a nun.
lei Of conversions and a greater num-.
'oer Of protesting sanctifcation has
SO far been the result of these meet.

There is to be a special meeting fo-
men at ths Orpheum theater, at 3
o'clock Sunday. at which time Mr..
