1t is easy to understand that

J JEFFERSON STREET SEW Err.

The sewerage work in this city,
with the return of more favorable
weather, is making steady head
way again. AT the intersection
of st. Peters and Jefferson streets
a considerable delay was caused
by peculiar circumstance. The
Jefferson street storm sewer was
built by Jno. Webb in the early
part Of the year Of 1892. The
levels for that work were estab
lished and the sewer has been
rendering service along that line
ever since.
The surveyor for the sanitary
sewerage builders planned one OF
the main arteries to 90 down st.
Peters street and fixed the levels
without taking into consideration
the existence of the other. When
the workers reached Jeffer
son street, after the establish
meDt Of all the levels of the up
per portion of town, it was found
that the two sewers had been
planned to cross each other on
practically the same level. After
the suspension of the work for a
number Of days it was decided to
carryIhe new sewer on it's course
as surveyed. To do thus mason
ry box was built IN the earth to
take the place Of that section OF
the older sewer which would be
traveIsed by the new one. The
new sewer was carried straight
drought this box. This arrange
ment allows both currents to flow
smoothly on their ways without
embarrassment.

LITTLE PROSPECT OF
 SETTLING CAR STRIKE
ST. LOUIS MAGNATES REFUSE TO RECOGNIZE THE STREET CAR
 MEMS UNION,

St Louis. Mo, Feb ,. Increased street car fares that would enable the company to raise the wages of the motormen and conduc ors ten cents an hour was the answer of President MCCullooh of tho United Railways this afternoon to the request of Mayor Kiel that the street car rike be settled The letter was decided on a a meet ing of the board of direc ors The company also notified the mayor that they see of good purpose that would be served by the permaent recosni- tion of the Amalgamated Street and Railway employees and said that the importation of strike breakers de- pends on the leaders of the union The company is willing, however. it informed the mayor to make a con- tract with an organization of its own employees poyided the organization is possessed of the necessary financial responsibility as to assure the Com pany that the agreement will be bind ing on the employees
 As the strikers have insisted that recognition of their newly formed union and the re- employment of those | discharged for union activity are two points that cannot be arbitrated. the thousands who are walking to and from work saw in the answer of the company no prospects of settlement. The car company was slightly more successful today than yesterday in it's efforts to maintain ear service. A to- tal of 104 ears were operated-iess than a tenth of their normal number.

VISITATION DAY;
 FAMILY NIGHT
VOL LUNTEER WORKERS WILL COVER THE CITY TODAY lN- VlTiNG PEOPLE TO THE
 TABERNACLE.

This is what Is known as visitation day. in the great tabernacle meetings The object of this work today will be to show the people of Hot Springs that everyone is cordially invited to attend the services and will receive a hearty welcome when they come. The church people of this city want those who do not attend church services to know that every church throws it's doors wide open to them to attend, and children who do not attend Sun- day school anywhere, be they rich or poor, are wanted in some Sunday school next Sunday. There is no sell fish purpose upon the part of anyone in this move. The controlling motive in this work today is to get in touch with the people of the city in an ef- fort to do them good We trust that everyone will heartily cooperate in the work of today and make it the greatest day ever seen in Hot Springs, Every pastor in the city is behind the move to the end that they may find out where their services are needed, where lives need help, where good can be accomplished. If the people would only come to the tabernacle services, tell who they are, what their church affiliations are or have been, and If they have none, to make known their preferences; or if they have no pref erences, express a desire for better living, the pastors and workers will use their best efforts to help them to live life worth while.
 The tabernacle services are being held by the various churches for the purpose of finding the things the churches can do to reach the masses and this can be done much more ef- fectively by concerted effort. Bid the visitors today a hearty welcome to your home and do your bit to make a great success of the work of the church united in this effort
 Two services were held in the tab ernacle today in the afternoon and evening. Mr Stephens contiued his l afternoon talks on the work of the Holy Spirit, showing the purpose of His being sent into the world. what He does and how He does it. The afternoon service was very profitable to Christians present.
 The large eevening audience was an inspiring one and Mr. Stephens deliv cred one of the strongest messages yet brought to the people. The great audience of more than 2.500 people ] sang
 "tIo. Springs for Christ,
 Hot Springs for Christ;
 Oh. what a joy!
 Win Hot Springs for Christ" 1 The effect of the singing of this song was powerful upon the people Mir Stephens publicly thanked the newspapers of the city for the space they are giving to the services and urged the audience to send copies of them to their friends
 MT Stephens spoke on, "Who
The Sentinel=record., 1918-02-06

Cares?" using Ps 142:4. "No man cares for my soul" Daniel Webster, when asked the greatest thought of his life, answered: My personal re- sponsbiity" And we might add, My responsibility to others" There is too much selfishness in the world. No person is happy who lives for him self and never thinks of others. You are asked to go out and win someone else This is the mission of the Chris tian. If you are a Christian yoa will go out and try to win others. A high school girl once in a meeting said that she had found Jesus and Jesus has found her But she said she was uu- happy and when asked why she was in this state of mind replied that her mother and father were not saved The entire family found Christ through the life of a girl who cared T know l am a Christian" said the speaker" because l am burdened for others" It is a shame for people to claim to be a Christian and not try to win others. Some people take ex- ception to this, eXcusing themselves because no opportunities come to them. The grocer, the butcher the milkman and others come to our homes daily He told how a woman who belonged to tho church lost her opportunity by failing to speak at the proper time to q man who came daily to her door He told how a Swedish boy walked the streets of Chicago as a sandwich" on his back with John three sixteen written on it, and 1t won man to Christ. The sandwich was two blanks strapped together with John 3:16 on it. Example after eX ample was given of men who had been reached by people going to others and telling them they cure. Hundreds of people in churches here who can talk cards, gambling. politics and every thing else but Jesus and religion. These people let others go to ruin without saying word to them about their soul.
 A husband, once desirous of being a Christian, but the wife hindered him and he was accidentally killed, yet no one had cared enough for him to speak to him and such regrets as come to those who knew him! Sel- fishness is the reason why so many people don't care. The story was told of a doctor who saw boy drowned, not knowing who he was, and he was indifferent; but when he found out it was his own boy he began work in earnest and he was resuscitated What are we doing to save others We are putting in our time eating and drinking waile people go 10 ruin and nobody cares.
