Growing Interest In the Evangelistic Work
of E. W. Bliss.
WOODY TV ILL BE HERE SUNDAY
In the Morning He Will Speak in the;
Elm Park Church and in the After
noon Ha Will Be Heard tn the Gos
pel Tent Mr. Bliss Eloquent Dis
course on the Love of God.
Constantly growing interest is mani
fested in the evngelistio work of E.
W. Bliss in the cospel tent on North
Main avenue. List night the people
flockod to bear him aud tested the
seating powers of the tent.
The choir improves with each per
performance aud lust night rendered
the hymns in a superb manner. The
entrance has been made more easy of
access by the rays of a large aro light.
On the platform luit night were
seated Revs. It. G. Jones, L. C. Floy.),
1) D.. T. J. Collin?, D. C. Hughes und
Mr. Bliss. The meeting opened with
the singing of a hymn, after which
Rsv. T. J. Collins offered an earnest
prayer in behalf of thoie present and
for the success of Mr. Bliss in his cam
paign. A quartette consisting of Will
Beek, William C. Jones, John Jones
and H, D. VanGordon sang a very
beautiful selection entitled, "Launch
Away." Every voice swelled forth as
the rapturous "Nerer, My Old, to
Thee," was sung. Rsv. D. C. Hnghas,
D. D., read a portion of the scriptures
Irom the first tplstle of John, aud Mr.
Bliss announced the womsu's meeting
t .is afternoon in the Simpson Methodist
Episcopal church.
MOODY WILL BE HERE.
Mr. MooJy will begin his work in
this city at the Elm Park Church at 0
o'clock Sunday morning utid will
preach at the lent on Sunday eveniug
to men only. Mr. Bliss thinks that
next week will be a groat week in
Scrauton with this evangelist iu the
city. Mr. Duvis, who was in Mr.
Moody's quartette iu Chicago, was
present ami sang in a claar tenor voice,
"Throw Out the Life Line," the con
gregation Joining in on the chorus.
Mr. Bliss continued his sermon of ths
eveuing before, the text being Revela
tions 12:11: "And they overcame
death by the Woo l of the lamb." Dur
ing his remarks be said:
I wish people could sea a higher motive
than the usual attention to services and
the collection box. lhey should give some
attention to the constraint of love. If nny
one should rescue you from drowning you
would never cease to love or at least
thiti K a great deal of him. In this same
way we love our God and reuder ourselves
freely unto Uuu. This is the highest
mauif -station of Christianity. I met a
girl in Philadelphia who had C'hristiunity
iu her face, aud I was preaching there.
She came to me at the close of the sermon
alter I hud spoken about the constraint of
love, and said, 1 thank yon Mr. Blisa for
your teachings. I was very foolish to
think for a moment that I could do any
thing to meet the love of God. All that
we must do is to be willing.
THINKS IT 13 AWFUL.
1 think it is awful for people to say, Mr.
Blits. cau I play cards and be a Christian?
Can I go to theaters and be a Christian?
All that people should Buy is, "I have
been bouclit by the blood of Jesus Christ,
and Inm His; I will do His biddings." The
questions that people sometimes ask me
are foolish, indeed. Tho one who is watch
ing all the time is the most commendable
ami the most praiseworthy.
The man who keeps away from the pre
cipice instead of showiug his skill by driv
ing to the very eilue of it, is the one to
hire. This is the highest type of Christian
ity. 1 don't smoko because I don't waut
to, I don't play cards became I don't want
to. But yon have consciences of your
own and can judgo for yourselves. 1 am
hero to preach the gospel and not con
demn card playing.
I do not say that I have given anything
up for Christ for He has given me 10,(0)
times more than I ever gave up. All that
He got out or me was my sins. There is a
chance for heroism right bore. We need
not go to Africa. If a man was to go into
a dark quarter and take a man by the hand
and speak kindly to him end tell him of
Jesus you would do nn heroic and a Chris
tian uct, for reuietiiber the text, "For
they loved not their lives unto death."
The men who nnder shot nnd shell at the
Pappahannock lakl tho plank that allowed
the Union army to cross whilo the river
was stained with their blond and these
men loved their lives unto death.

OFFICER FLAHERTY'S COW.
From Ch'oairo and Is Probably Deacendad
from Mrs. O'L ary's Bovit o,
Police Officer Martin Flaherty, of
Cherry street, bought a full blooded
cow that was shipped from the Chieago
stock yards. Yesterday he brought
the sleek creature home and introJuved
it to the pasture iu bis horticultural
inclu8ure.
The animal was innured to the
boundless prairies of Chicago and re
belled against the stuffy gardens of
urban owners, and bofore an hour's
confinement it made sevoral nlmost
successful efforts to jump the fence.
Officer Flaherty walkeJ into the lot
with a flit full of red apples to temptths
cow into submission, but his seductive
implortious only served toitnpol tl
beast to insensate fury. He determined
then to teach the animal a lesson, and
got a barrel to fasten on its bead. Mr.
Flaherty had the right idea Hit be
needed assistance to curryfit out.
He went at tho task single-handed
and Id a might as well have tried to
muzzle a hyena. The barrel was a
mass of broken staves, he was tossed
sky high and the cow scudded to the
street nnd dashed at an infuriated pace
thrcngh the streets and alleys, scariug
the women and children almost to
death. The maddened animal kept
going until it s ink exhausted in Taylor,
where it was cuptnred and now awaits
the arrival of its owner.
