SPECIAL SERVICES.
PROVE INTERESTING

The Crucifxion OF Christ" was
the subject OF the sermon by Rev.
G.. w. Titus at the Christian church
last night in connection with the
special meetings now being held by
that body. The speaker drew atten-
ton 10 the different groups that
gathered about the foot of the cross
as the tragedy was enacted. The first
group, those who were openly Op-
posed TO Jesus Christ, belonged to
the religious people OF the day.
Among them could be found the
temple authorities. and the religious
leaders. They had tried for three
years 10 entrap Christ and now
gloated over their success. Strange
10 say this group is in our midst to-
day. for we have many that are
still opposed TO Christ and Eis
claims. Some are against Him be-
cause He interiors with their their
business. others are against Him
because of the demands He makes
upon them; while others are against
Him for the reason that He inter
fers with their sinful pleasures. The
second group was likened by the
speaker 10 the Indifferent and the
third 10 those who were always with
Him.
There have quite a number Of
additions 10 the church since the
series of special meetings, which are
proving most interesting, commenc-

had little kitty-bags or bandana hand
kerchiefs In which they carried few
little personal ekeepsakes, such as photos
of their sweethearts. mothers or wives.
These were taken from them and
thrown into the sea. The first officer.
Matthews, was kept below decks for
an hour and put through the third de-
gree as to the routes of other ships.
LEFT FLouNDERING IN WATER.
The Germans overplayed this little
drama of frightfullness as they used up
a whole hour in preparing the hfe-ooat
as a torture chamber for the men who
were set adrift in it. destroyers
smoke was seen on the horizon and the
Germans made haste TO dive. MattneyS
was thrust through the hatchway and
the submarine dived with 16 men stun
standing on her deck. They were left
fioundering in the water to swim TO the
empty life boat as best they could.
The American schooner Woodward
Abrams was attacked 400 miles of
shore Capt. Van Namme ad his crew
of eight were put in a life-boat While
the Germans set the lumber laden
schooner a fire with incendiary bombs.
The American sailors drifted about the
Atlantic for two days and two nights
when they were picked up by another
lumber schooner, the Norwegian Anna
Maria She was summarized 200 miles
off shore and the men again took to
the life-boats. The crew of the Anna
Maria were never seen again. After
another "a hours adrift. Capt. Van
Namme and the Americans were picked
up. They lived. The Norwegians died.
Frost believes from the evidence sift-
ed by him that the submarine COM
manders are widely different. Some of
them delight in making their work as
fendish as possible. Frost said. Some
of them when they can lose nothing by
IL, put on a little "gentlemanly buccan-
eer" comedy.
They were very polite to the crews
they showed off into the boats, express
ed regret and hopes for speedy rescue.
In no case. however, did this polite
ness affect their interests. It disappear
ed as the smoke of patrol boat was
sighted, or as another victim appeared.
In such cases, the mask was dropped.
A British stewardess and her hus-
| band, sailor, who were taken below
| decks and questioned most politely at
| first, were taken to the deck and the
| submarine submerged. leaving them
struggling in the water after they had
refused to give up any information. In
| a very few instances there were signs
| of regret on the part of the submarine
| officers. One of those was related by
Second Officer Kohlsaat, a naturalized
British subject. who was allowed to
touch off the bombs which destroyed
his own ship.
In talking with the submarine cap
tain, the latter expressed disgust with
| the workout for him. With tears in
his eyes. he said that submarine cap
| tains had been put to death by slow
torture in Germany for letting big pas
senger liners escape them.
Kohlsaat was asked by Frost If he
really believed that.
II don't know about It," he answered
II am ready to believe anything of Won
Tirpitz. But / do know that whether
any men have been tortured to death or
not. the captain who was talking to me
believed il and feared IT."
