MERCHANTS' BAY AT THE TABERNACLE YESTERBAY Stores and Ooces Closed as Business Men, Headed by the Singer Cornet Band, Much In Body to Evangelist ic Services Mechanicsburg, Feb. 6.—The ob servance of "Merchants' Day" in the tabernacle campaign yesterday began at an early hour, a great many of the Christian people of the town complying with the request to fast to the extent of omitting the morning meal. At 12 o'clock Christian people, wherever they were, all over town, prayed silently for live minutes for the business and pro fessional men of the town. The morning prayer meeting and business men's noon meeting were held as usual. At 2 o'clock Mrs. Bowman gave a Bible study in the tabernacle. From 2 to 4.30 practically all the stores and offices in town were closed. The business and pro f ess:onal men as sembled in Franklin hall and in a body, headed by the Singer band, to the tabernacle. * There the band first gave a short concert of sacred music, which was much enjoyed. Oth er special'vmusic was a quartet, "Come, Ye Disconsolate," by Drs. Eisenhower and Kilmore and Messrs. Brandt and Lucas, and a solo by Miss Cree, "No ltoom in the Inn."' The Rev. L. M. Dice made the opening prayer. Evan gelist Miller took as his text the words in Luke 2:7, '-There was no room for them iu the inn." He pointed out that, as the innkeper missed the op portunity to entertain Jesus, because he did not realize who He was, so to day Jesus is crowded out of hotels, business and homes because men do not realize who and what He is. At this meeting two decisions for Christ were made. The [touring r«iu affected the atten dance at blie taibflrnacle last evening, but did not affeiet the interest or the spiritual enthusiasm. In the song service Professor Hofo gatt announced a series of hymns hav ing special application to the recent ex periences of many in the tabernacle, closing with "A Great Change for Me." By request, the choir sang "Har vest Time is Here.''' Captain Nielson, of the llnrrisburg Salvation Annv, offored the opening prayer, and Mi*s Cree sanig "l>on't Forget the Promise Made to Mother." Just before the sermon Evangelist Miller again asked for requests for prayer and then lei' in prayer for the Salvation of those for whom prayer was aslc I. His text was "Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest," Matt. 11.28. At this service there were eighteen decis ions. All but thVee of the converts were men. and nearly all were youug men. The number of decisions report ed to date is exactly six hundred. SERVICE FOR FATHERS The Rev. B. H.

Clarence Gibboney, t>he Philadelphia lawyer-—supposedly at the request of Governor Brumbaugh —-will be introduced in the House next Monday night. It makes the county tie unit, afl proposed by the Governor. Efforts have been made by Stato Grangers to induce the G-ovornor to ac cept its program on the liquor question.

It includes also thie abolition of all saloons with the | sale of liquor confined for the most part i to hotels; the prohibition of the pen ding of liquors, and the prevention of brewers or distillers from holding an interest in retail licenses.
