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.

Men of Fifth Street M. E. Church
A*+hc evening services of the Fifth

The Kpworth League devotional
services will be held at 6.30. The

thau usual interest for the reason that
it is the last missionary day of the
Sunday school year and a healthy rival
ry is being manifested among the varjj
ous classes with respect to the total of
ferings for the year. Mrs. Witherow
and Clarence Sigler will sing at these
exercises. Praise meeting will be held
at 9.3t) a. in.

telephone communications.
The connection requested would make
it unnecessary for the complainant to
construct its line in the territory now
actually occupied by the respondent,
which would be an advantage in the
way of economy.
It is stated that the directors of each
company desire the connection but
been prevented from permitting
t'he same to be made, by a threat of an
official of the Slate Belt Telephone and
Telegraph Company, to the effect that
if the connection were made t'he Slate
Belt would compel the respondent to
