number OF opportunities presented
Only recently the Commercial club of
Omaha offered o suitable site and
building at Ralston, an Omaha suburb,
to the promoters if they would move
there and start the manufacture of
their supplies. This is not desired,
however. Denison has been chosen
and negotiations are now under way
toward securing the power plant
building recently vacated by the city,
for site. The interior of the build
ing would be remodeled to suit the
convenience of the manufacturers, and
being convenient to trackage faciIi-
ties, this building would make an adj
mirable location.
We are informed the plant could be
operated very economically with cleo
trio power and it has been estimated
that the city would gain revenue of
$500 or $500 per day in amount Of
current furnished.
We trust our people are alive to|

to everyone of us, Repent, be bap-
tized in the name Of Jesus Christ for
the remission OF sins" With this
done the Holy Ghost would come in
the heart. The record says that some
three thousand people professed Christ
az that time.
| 1t is the clear cut presentation OF
the gospel message which appeared To
men and women then and appeals to
them now. Conversions come both in
enlightened America and in heather
lands by just such presentation Of
the bible truths as were given by
Peter.tl wclf.remembcr Of asking a re-
turned missionary as to what he said
to his hearers in india, He replied.
~ talk just the way would here, for
there is the consciousness III cv-
cry man and woman that he or she is
a sinner, not right with God. land that
something ought to be done to gain
pardon and reconciliation
There is a point well in favor OF the
truth OF the events which had taken
place according to the bible, Just pre-
vious to the day when Peter spoke. He
was talking to men who had lived
about Jerusalem for many years, and
knowing too what had taken place. He
declared that Jesus had lived and
preached, was crucified and rose
again; and thousands acknowledged
that these things were so by joining
the early christian church Peter would
not have dared tell an untTutll as to-
history Of events i'll the three years
previous, before men who had lived
and taken part in that history. II he,
had, he would have made himself a
laughing stock instead of moving the
people with his words.
True followers of Jesus now should
not be afraid to speak out blodly for
Him. When christians at Denison in
the revival meetings organized and
stepped ont with confidence to pre-
sent the claims OF Jesus and called on
men and women to go forward with
repentance for sins of the past, the re-
Spouse was most wonderful. The same
God and the same power are with the
christians of Portsmouth, O., where
these notes are read, and they can at
tain sweeping results by having the.
courage to speak right out to friends

The Opera House.

The drama, Under Cover" at the
Gcrtnania opera house Oh Thursday
night. was one OF the best Manager
IErauth ever booked since taking over
the new opera house Those taking
part were experienced actors. well
adapted to the different parts and all
possessing excellent voices. The cos
tunes and stage settings were of the
best and altogether the show was a
most creditable one. The attendance
was not what it should have been how
ever; either tlleater goers Of Denison
Ito not take to drama or the name I'M
der which the show was billed did not
PROVE attractive. Be that as it may.
these attractions cost money, and if
Denison is not interested in good clean
drama it is time the management,
found it out Without patronage the
management will be unable to book
attractions such as the opera house
warrants. The building of the opera
house was thought to have filled a.
long felt want, and now that it is built
all take justiiiable pride in it, but
without patronage the better class of
road shows will pass us by.
We understand the management has
Il lumber of meritorious shows book
ed Next Thursday within the,
Law will come, and as this is well
recommended attraction, it is to be
hoped a good patronage will be en-
tended.
