"Why Adventists
Keep Saturday,"
Evangelist Watt.

Saturday, not Sunday, is the Sab
bath Of the Bible, and is the day al
people ought to keep, according tc
Evangelist Watts, who spoke on the
subject of the Sabbath at the Liberty
Theatre.
The seventh-day, Sabbath. was in
stituted at creation, Mr.. Watts said
and not for the Jew only, but for the
whole human family. mo cycle of
earth, sun, moon or stars mark the
week." he added. "There is nothing
in nature to indicate the dividing of
time into weeks. The sun divides the
time into days, the moon into months,
the seasons into years; but the sev,
enth-day Sabbath alone marks the
termination of the week. Without
the Sabbath there would be no divis
ion into weeks.
"The Sabbath is a memorial of
Gods creative power As long as it is
desirable that man should remember
his creator, so long will the Sabbath
exist. Even in the earth made new,
from one Sabbath to another shall
all flesh come to worship before me,
saith the Lord Isiah 66:23.
"The Sabbath commandment has
never been abrogated in the least
particular, Exodus 20:S-11. Only
one weekly Sabbath is referred to in
the Bible, and that is the specific sew
enth day of the week.
"Christ says in Mark 1927 that the
Sabbath was made for mantle hu.
man race. It's blessings and its obi
cations cannot be confined to the
Jews
"When was the Sabbath day made

Many people seem to have trouble t.

when Easter Sunday comes, and VIII,
it is observed, Every one know
when good Friday comes, and why i
is called good Friday. Men call
good Friday because Christ was cru

Illinois Miners
United in Strike

BENTON, H., Dec. 5.-"If DR..
Garfield and Federal Judge Anderson
will come here / will give them picks
and shovels, for that is about the only
way that mines will be worked in
Franklin County now"
This was the declaration made yes
terday by John Black, secretary of the
Ninth Subdistrict organization of the
United Mine Workers of America.
Black told of what the unanimous
feeling was in regard to the strike
and said he felt that this statement
on his part was in agreement with
practically all of the miners in this
section.
Black continued: 81 see no hope
now of mining coal here because of
DR.. Garfeld's action, which |, along
with most of the members Of my
organization, condemn. Miners of
this section are no less willing than
any others that the price of coal should
not be raised, but what they do de-
mand is fair living wage, and the
proposed Ia per cent will not give
them that.
81 have weathered a number Of
strikes and / have never seen any
point on which the men were so unit
ed as they are at present. No Hi
nois miners will be at work under
these conditions. If the government
plans to have coal mined it will have
to be mined by men like Garfield and
Anderson. If these gentlemen are
ready to go down into the mines and
dig coal shall be glad to give them
a pick and shovel for their work.
Franklin county would welcome their
activity here to see such illustrious
persons as these in the production
of coal"
Black also declared that he knew
of mines in this county which would
have signed the call for a go per
cent increase without a cent raise in
the price to the consumer.

SAID HE SAW HE'LL AFLOAT
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 IL defeated its own ends
and was somewhat amusing I'm the
retrospect. such was the case with
the Armenia, one OF the first boats
built which was fast enough 10 make
most of the trip from New York 10
Albany by daylight. This was for the
purpose OF attracting passengers who
wished 10 view the beautiful river
scenery. but for fear that scenery alone
would pall on the passengers. the own
ers also Installed steam calliope. The
calllope 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 ap-
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
as 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,
spoutng sparks and smoke and with
all her discordant whistles blowing.
On his return home he told a wonder
full tale of seeing the devil going up
the river in sawmill with all the
denizens of hell on board shrieking In
awful torment.

Quaint Old Eastport.

The quaint old town Of Passport.
Me-, which is but a little way from
the easternmost point in the United
States, is OF interest because during
the War OF 1872 a British fleet sailed
into the harbor and took possession
Of the town and fort without firing a
shot. Here British troops remained
until the exact boundary between the
United States and Canada had been
determined. With the exception OF
the interval indicated above, Ameri-
can troops occupied the fort from
1903 until 1875. In the latter year It
was abandoned and later the property
was sold to private individuals, who
turned the buildings into dwellings.
