TURN IN THE TIDE

1t has been apparent for some
time that the tide of battle in Eu-
rope has turned. The recession is
painfully apparent to Germany, al
though that country still affects to
treat as matters of no Importance
the steady progress of the allies and
the falling back of the Teutons. One
of Dickens's characters, who never
realized the serious problems of life,
had;a saying, 'It's of no consequence.
This observation seems to have been
adopted by the central powers in
crushing aside as incidents of no
Importance facts which are of serious
import.
The capture of Guillemont and the
quick progress to the. sunken road
beyond; the taking of Falfemont
farm and the thrust forward to Leuze
wood, the close assault on Guichy
and the French advance on the allies
right have given to this part CT the
battle line an atmosphere of exulta-
ton that the English and French
troops. have not enjoyed since the
| day they broke the second German
line at Longueval. @
The men are fighting with that
sense of victory which is half the
battle.
They feel, rightly OF wrongly, tina
they ehave the Germans on the rur
at last, s
The rapid progress Of the French

military way, but as a moral tonic

and resistance has. begun to ,craci

SALE OF DEADLY WEAPONS

The deplorable tragedy Thursday
afternoon, in which an esteemed
lady of Louisa county took her life,
while suffering from physical an
guish of long months standing,
should add strains of thought to the
ideas of local lawmakers.
The Richmond Virginian calls at
tention to the fact that many efforts
have been made to regulate the sale
and purchase of deadly weapons. No
man, or woman, without special per-
mission from the Judge of a court,
can, under the law, carry conceal
cd weapon.
But there is no law preventing the
sale of weapon to any one who may
apply to hardware store or a pawn
shop. An ordinance stood upon the
books for long time prohibiting
pawnbrokers from buying or selling
weapons. This law was recently
stricken from the books. so that nov
any one may sell or purchase pistol.
Had there been law prohibiting
the sale of such weapons, Mrs. Rem
nolds could not have purchased the
pistol with which she took her life
and there might have been fewer
motherless children today.

retirement Of our beloved city along
civic and commercial lines.
coLoRED FOLKS INTERESTED

w.
A well-known colored resident, has
sent commune ton to the Gazette,
Lin which he. says he understands the
colored people Of the city are to be
given an opportunity to hear Evan
|.gelist Gypsy Smith, at the gospel
tent, The writer .accords much praise
to Mr.. Smith and expresses his APP
probation Of the great work in which
he is engaged.
It should be stated that some col
ored people have attended these
meetings from the beginning, and
that their presence has encouraged
those who have charge of the revival.
In the Acts of the Apostles We are
told Of disciple known as @Niger
who was called black" 1t is generally
supposed Niger was negro, but he
took prominent part in the work
of the early church
In, ante-bellum days and for some
time subsequent the pastors of the
white churches of Alexandria fire.
quently conducted services in the
colored churches. They generally
appeared among the colored people
on Sunday nights, and their presence
was always greeted with Joy by the
believers. After the close of hostili-
ties visits Of white ministers to coll
ored churches became few and far
between, from the fact that the col
cred race had ministers of their own.
The negro is with US, and he is des-
tined to stay with us. His progeni-
tors were not born on the North
American continent, nor were ours,
but he needs encouragement and
sympathy, as do all followers of the
Holy One Of Israel.
There have been Baptist, Presby-
teran, Methodist and Episcopal nights
and it is said the colored people
would appreciate it if they were Civ
en- an evening.
Since writing this article the
Gazette learns that the northwest
section of the big tent has been set
apart for the accommodation of the
colored people of the city for each
nightly service.

"THE PEOPLE HAD A MIND TO
WORK"

While most of the holy writings
consist of spiritual food, there are
suggestions in the Bible which show
that in an industrious or CONNER
cial point of view, we should not be
indolent. "Be diligent in business,
fevent in spirit, serving the Lord"
is one of the most practical sugges-
tions in the good book.
The portable tabernacle now be-
ing used in the revival services on
upper King street is upon the spot
which, in anteIbellum days was
known as "Peyton's Grove" the CEN
tire of the present city of Alexandria.
In 1856, when balloon ascension was
made in that enclosure, large per-
centage of the people gathered to
see "Mongolfer and his silken ball."
The huge multitude watched the aero
naut until his balloon became mere
spec in the sky and finally passed
from sight.
They then had their physical eyes
turned heavenward while the pres
ent generation which now gathers
in the same place have their spiritual
eyes turned to God above.
But this article is not written for
the purpose of delivering a sermon
to compete with the enthusiastic mes
senger of the cross now among us:
We have been forcibly impressed withl
the beautiful picture of men of all
creeds and nationalities dwelling to-
gether in unity, and under the same
tent. There is no Jew nor Greek, bar
barian, Scythian, bend nor free
they are all rningling with one hope.
In the days of Nehemiah, after
Cyrus had allowed the Jews to return
to their own land at the close of the
seventy years of Babylonian capti-
witty, the chosen people experienced
no little difficulty in building Jerusa-
lem. We are to'i that they worked
with a sword in one hand and trow-
el in the other. But the record says,
$50 we built the wall; and all the
wall was joined together unto the
half thereof; for the people had a
mind to work"
This spiritual refreshing will con-
tinue month. We will look for the
harvest, hoping the seed is being sowr
which shall bring forth thirty. sixty
and one hundred fold. Some will
doubtless, fall upon the hard paths
upon rocks and among thorns, as il
ever has done, cut let US hope 70,
the best.
All will agree that the spiritual
welfare of a city &c CT prime impor
tanee, and that its commercial il
terests, while vital are necessaril!
secondary, but the fact that our PEG
pie have come together as one man
in the greatest religious movement
ever launched IN old Alexandria
proves conclusivcly that after thi
great and importan. work shall hav
been concluded, we can al come to
