UNION SERVICE AT GREEN RIDGF.
Held at tbe Presbyterian Church and
Largely Attended.
Tbat tha general interest in tbe
Moody meetings la not dormant among
church members was attested yesterday
morning by the union meeting of
Green Ridge churches at the Green
Ridge Presbyterian chnrch to bear
Evangelist Sohievera, one of Mr.
Moody's corps of workers. ' The con
gregations and ministers preseut wers:
Green Ridge Baptist. Rev. W. J. Ford ;
Zion Evangelioal, Rev. G. L. Maioe,
Asbory Methodist Episcopal, Rev. A,
F. Cbaffee; First Primitive Metho
dist, Rev. D. Savage; Green Ridge
Presbyterian, Rev. N. Fi 8tnhl.
At 11.80 when Rev. G. L. Maioe
made the invocation the edifies was
well filled. Rev. Savage read from the
Scriptures and prayer was offered by
Rev. A. F. Chaffse.
Mr. Srhievera's sermon defined the con
ditions requisite to revival work, and
bis effort, which was apparently made
to create enthusiasm in Mr. Moody's
campaign evidently succeeded. Ha
chose bis text from Chronicles, 2, 7-11,
containing an excerpt of God's answer
to Solomon's prayer. The speaker
tersely cited who are the people of
God, described how they are to
humble themselves, and defined tbe
characteristics of true prayer. He con
tended tbat only frank and open meth
ods should be employed in seeking tbe
face of God. It sin is forsaken the
answer will be forgiveness of sin and a
revival of God's work.
' The discourse was directed, particu
larly, to chnrch members, and was at
happily received as it was rendered.
SERVICE IN THE TENT.
Riv. Mr. Bliss Dtlivtrs a Bsrmon to a
Largs Audlsncs.
Fully 2,000 persons wsre gathered in
the teut last evening and abont 600
more on the outside. Owing to the
heavy showers which p used over tbe
plaoejustas it was time for the ser
mon to begin, the praise service was
continued tor anothr half hour, dar
ing which tbe choir sang the anthem
"Abide in the Lord," in which Mrs.
Iieaton T. Jayue sang the aria. Mrs.
Jnyne nftorwurds sang "I Shall 11a
Satisfied."
Mr. Biiss read a portion from the 22J
chapter of the gospel according to St.
Matthew, after which he asked tbe
congregation tbe three questions:
"What think ye of Jesus?'' -What
shall I do with Jesus?" "How shall
we escnpe if we negleot to great a sal
vation?" The only escape for a person is to
believe on Christ and have Him to in
tercede in his behalf on tbe judgment
day. About GOO people stayed in the
tent for the after-meeting, during
which a large nnmber of short prayers
and testimonies were offered. A large
number of people accepted the invita
tion to accept Christ as their Savior.
A meeting will be held at tho tent
again tomorrow evening, nt which
time Mies Verna Mitchell will render
a solo. Tbe members of tbe choir are
requested to be pressnt at 7 o'oloek

Jonkius was held yesterday afternoon at
tbe residence on Putnam street. It was
conducted by Rev. D. A. Evans and was
very largely attended. Iuterment was
mado in Forest Hill cemetery.
The tent was completely filled yesterday
afternoon when Mr. Bliss preached an ex
cellent sermon from the text found in the
lust clause of tbe twelfth verse of the
fourth chapter of the Prophecy of Amos,
"Preparo to meet thy God." The service
opened with a half hour praise service,
during which tbe choir sang "On Calvary's
Brow," the air being given by Mrs. H.
Ledsham, of Dickson City. Revs. M. D.
Fuller and D. M. Kintnsr offered prayer.
Mr. Bliss said the words of the text were
uttered in a time when .the children of
Israel had forgotten all about God, and the
only way that He could bring them to re
membrance of Him and save them from
destruction was by bringing sorrow and
trouble unto them. He is crying now,
"Prepnre ye to meet your God," and every,
body must meet Him, for He bas ordained
a day when we will bs judged before
Christ. While the choir was singing some
hymns be requested all who wanted to be
prepared to meet God to rise, which a
large nu rubor did.
