THE DEVIL At CHURCH
SUBJECT OF SERMON.
Evangelist Fagan Gives Interesting
Address TO Large Audience at the
Christian church.

Evangelist Fagan in the Christian
church meetings preached an interest
ing sermon to large audience on the
unusual subject, When the Devil
Goes to Church" Mir. Pagan based
his sermon upon the passage of scrip
ture found in Job, second chapter
first verse, which reads. Again
there was day when the sons Of
God came to present themselves be
fore the Lord, ana Satan came also
among them to present himself be
fore the Lord 1t is not surprising
TO find the devil a regular attendant
at church, for Paul says Satan fash
ions himself into an angel of light.
He comes to church to hinder tho
preacher by suggesting that he com
promise with sin or that he refrain
from preaching positive doctrines lest
some friend have his feelings hurt
He also comes to accuse men of be-
ing spiritual grafters, of uniting with
the church to gain their own selfish
ends, He made such accusations
against Job but they We're proven
false. He comes To church to blind
men against the gospel. Jesus said
The cares of the world and the de-
ceitfulness of riches choke the word
and 1t becometh unfruitful' Satan
preoccupies mems thoughts with the
things of the world and thus blinds
them against the gospel
Satan also comes to church to raise
crop Of hypocrites, Yes. there are
hypocrites in the church but every
one Of them belongs to the devil They
are not Gods children The man
who hides behind hypocrite must be
smaller than a hypocrite for you
can't hide behind a thing that is
smaller than you are. Satan also
comes to church to snatch away the
convictions Of men. Men are convict.
ed Of sin by the preaching Of the gos-
pei Satan snatches away the word of
God by suggesting all manner OF ex-
cuses.
Mr.. Fagan announces this as the
last week of the meeting, Subjects for
tonight:
The Blood of Christ"
! Tuesday night, The Ups and
Downs of a Fast Young Man"

its last note regarding interference
with neutral mails were cabled by the
state department Monday to Ambassa-
dor Page at London and Ambassador
Sharp at Paris.
The step was taken after President
Wilson and other officials had studied
the British memorandum dealing with
specific complaints and deferring until
the future reply to the American
contentious regarding the principles
involved.
The official text OF the memoran-
dun, made public by the state depart
ment. reveals that Great Britain feels
"obliged to disclaim responsibility" for
the specific occurrences complained of
In the American note until there has
been opportunity of investigating in
detail" In that connection II is point
ed out that there have been many in
stances of complaints. which on exam
ination proved to arise from the wrong
direction of letters. the irregular sail
ings of neutral mail boats and from
other similar causes entirely outside
the control of his majesty's govern
ment."
One of the subjects left for consid-
Grafton in the allies forthcoming final
reply Is the American complaint re-
garding money order lists, which 1t Is
declared involves question OF prin-
ciple on which consultation between
those governments is still in progress"
In replying to the complaint regard
ing mail removed from the steamship
Medan, some of which later was lost on
the Mecklenburg, the memorandum
says the facts set forth by the United
States ARE correct except that 1t is
not made clear, though it is the fact,
that the neutral mail bags removed
from the Medan were all sent on and
that 1872 bags lost in the Mecklenburg
were without exception for enemy des-
tination"
The communication concludes that
the specific complaints in the Amer
can note do not support the general
charges against the efficiency OF the
British censorship which the govern

JAMES WHlTcoMB RILEY DEAD.
Beloved Hoosier Poet Succumbs to
Attack Of Paralysis.

Indianapolis. Ind.-James Whitcomb
Riley died at his home here, July %,
death being due to paralysis. Mr..
Riley suffered his first violent attack
of paralysis July 10. 1910.
James Whitcomb Riley. the Hoosier
poet, was born in 1853, but was re-
ticent as to his exact age. Mr.. Riley
never married. One of the most
unique celebrations in the country was
held in his honor October z. 1915,
when Riley day was observed by a
banquet in Indianapolis, and in schools
of the country attended by more than
100000 children. Men prominent in
business and politics from all over the
coutry assembled to do the poet hon.
age at the celebration. and many con-
gratulatory messages were received
from abroad on that occasion.
James Whitcomb Riley, born of the
middle west, sang the Joys, sorrows,
fancies and humors of its folk, largely
in its own dialect. The world was so
touched by his inspiration and the
realism of his homely symbols that he
was one of the few that, devoting
their lives to poetry, gained a fortune.
While Mr.. Riley never married, he
was lover of children, whose spirit
he OWNED so intimately. and of fam
lily life. Many of the last years of his
life he spent quietly at his home in a
secluded section OF Indianapolis.
