Rev. j. r. Richardson. Pastor.

Rev. j. r. Richardson, Pastor.
The Bible Glass which meets every
Sunday morning was well attended.
The pastor taught the lesson. The
morning service was conducted by the
pa.tor and he preached a glorious ser
mon and many were made to rejoice.
-. After the sermon the pastor lift
ed his voice in prayer asking that he
be given the funds wherewith to carry
on the building of the Lords House.
He asked that each mar and woman
give $500 and by so doing they would
be the ansyer to his prayer. Quite a
few gave the S. and some gave $40.
1--we were next introduced to the
African Prince, who in his wonderful
way told us a few things about Africa
and also about ourselves. We can
see from the Princes talk that he
has been a very close observer since
his arrival in this country The Sab.
bath School was well attended. The
lesson was reviewed by Brother Ma
than Thatcher, the Undertaken. We
enjoyed the review and was very glad
to have Brother Thatcher with us, as
his business has been such that hi
could not attend like he used to do
THE Mission Circle held a splendid
session at 2:30 a. m. and quite a few
of the sisters remained. We hope to
see more present from time to time.
The Mothers meeting was held at the
usual hour, with many of the mothers
present. This is one branch of the
service that should be attended by all
the mothers of the church. . The
evening service was conducted by the
pastor, who preached another soul
stirring sermon. There was one ad.
dition to the church. The men rails.
ed $3.50, the women raised SCI. The
total for the day was $17G.73. We
are expecting to place the roof on the
church this week. The work is pro
crossing nicely.

A Rousinq Preacher.

Among the anecdotes told OF the
late Rev. DR.. Somerville Of Ander-
ston. Glasgow, is the following:
When he was assistant to Doctor
Bonar at Larbert he had over three
miles to walk from his lodging at
Larbert to Dunipace, where he gen.
orally preached. He used to set OH
early in the morning, giving thunder
ing knocks on the cottage doors on MS
route to rouse the late-slumbering In
mates, commanding them to come to
church, and taking no refusal. one
morning he met Quarryman whom,
as usual, he urged to accompany MIN.
"Hoo can come in thae boots" was
the stolid reply. Doctor Somerville
took off his own footgear and insisted
on an exchange, "Now," he said'
mine are good enough for you to
hear in and yours are good enough for
me to preach in"

SAID HE SAW HELL AFL0AT
Some Excuse for Backwoodsman's
Story When He First Saw the
Steamboat Armenia.

Competition for passenger trade
among steamboat companies on the
Hudson river in the early days OF
steam navigation went so far some
times that 1t defeated It's own ends
and was somewhat amusing In the
retrospect. Such was the case with
the Armenia. one of the first boats
built which was fast enough to make
most of the trip from New York to
Albany by daylight. This was for the
purpose of attracting passengers who
wished to view the beautiful river
scenery, but for fear that scenery alone
would pail on the passengers, the own
ers also installed steam calliope. The
calliope was simply series of steam
whistles pitched in various keys OF
sufficient number to play simple tunes.
The Armenia was considered some
thing remarkable when she first APP
peared. as indeed she was. The de-
mand on her boilers for steam to blow
the calliope whistles was so great,
however, that the expense OF furnish
ing the passengers with steam tunes
ms well as speedy transportation was
more than the owners could afford.
The story is told Of Catskill back
woodsman, who, while visiting a river
town for the first time, saw the Ar
menia plying along before dawn
shouting sparks and smoke and with
all her discordant whistles blowing
On his return home he told wonder
full tale of seeing the devil going up
the river in a sawmill with all the
denizens of he'll on board shrieking In
awful torment.
