Revivals.

(Communication.)

Religious revivals seem to bo the themo for some time and although they have been handed down by our ancestry for ages past, yet they still retain their prestige. If I were to meet one I who had never been at religious worship, and never had any knowledge of the Bible, and I was asked to give a description of it, I would have to say that language was unutterably insignificant to describe its grandeur. And this is the esteem in which people should be educated in regard to divine worship. But in revivals the church seems to be astonished that their efforts are not more successful. Now it would seem a little strange if those who are trained up in a Christian community did not yield to its influence, but outside of that I am not at all surprised at tho indifference with which they act toward the churchA great many are like the young man who waB being solicited to unite with the church at the late revival. Ho said that if ho got religion that something great and miraculous would have to take place and he did not believe it would. Now the church is to blamo for this idea which prevails among so many. And then there is another class who have gone through that revival mill and they don't care about going through the great ordeal again. Some years ago a man went through the revival mill with over one hundred otheis, and he said when he got through that most of tho others seemed to havo so much religion that he concluded that he did not havo any. So he stepped aside to givo the others room but it turned out that they did not have any more religion than he did. for out of over a hundred there were less than a dozen who stayed with the church.

Thus it will bo seen that a revival can bo carricd on for a month and most of the people not know in plain terms just what is required of them. People who seldom ever go to church and never read any thing but navels and Jessie James stories don't comprehend the situation, and a true identification is not effected hence they backslide and the church is to blame more than they are. What is the requirement of tho.gospel? Is it not to cease to do evil, strive to do good and havo faith in a crucified redeemer. The church fails some times'entirely to get the correct ideas impressed on the people. A visiting minister at the recent revival related a story of a young lady who attended a revival at one time which ho was holding. She sat in the same place each night and ho could see the tears rolling down her cheeks night after night, but she did not yield to his persuasions. The meeting closed ancl on leaving tho church tho last night tho minister heard tho young lady tell her mother that it was her last time to at tend church. The young lad) went home, took sick and died. That minister was called upon to preach her funeral, but he refused and that was the only one he ever did refuse to preach. It seems that she had some forewarning of her death and she was perhaps praying over her latter end. If she had just rushed up and taken the minister by the hand, then he would have preached her to Heaven. There is so much of man's religion in this. They have preached to me for over thirty years that no penitent was ever lost and I havo just as much faith in tho penitenco that was shown by her as if she had made a great exhibition of it.

Thero can be such a thing as too much religion in hand shaking. It detracts the mind from the true center of thought and when done with tho penitent may have experienced but little outside the grand reception. Statistics show that in America 15 young men out of every 100 go to church regularly and 10 more go some times and that 75 never go. .Take a person who is seldom ever at church and enjoys saloon and dancing society and all other evils of the world and why should the church expect such a one to yield to its influence by fits and spells of revivals? Then again there are terrible storms rained down from the pulpit on the backslider while in many cases tho church is more to blame than they areReligious worship can surely bo considered the grandest possession the world has got, but time has proven that revivals ar3 not a success in the conversion of the world. When I was a boy I heard my grandfather say that people became hardened by preaching, and never before was any saying more true. Unless thero is something dono to better meet the condition of the people tho church will continue to complain about back­

sliding and indifforence. It will do nore than preaching will toward training the mind for a better life. Religious tracts and papers want to be put into the hands of every man, woman and child. ThiB followed up faithfully for twenty yearn would bring something to the surface that will never be known in any other way. Tho church wants to go out and get acquainted with tho world and invite them to church. Thero are people who would go to church if they were entreated faithfully to go. It is not always best to insist on people joining tho church. Be satisfied with them going to church first. Don't try Lo cry people into the church nor tio them down to any particular denomination. I havo seen penitents present themsolves to tho church who had never road any religious literature and was always Burrounded by tho worst of influence. Tho minister did not have as much as a religious tract to givo thorn, did not point them to any scripture leBsons and did not givo them any special council, or but very little, and they went out into their evil surroundings. Then tho church had to sneer at a backslider. Why God and tho Holy angels would not regard that justico had boon dono in such a case. Religious literature will, in twenty years and if it don't catch many of the older ones it will bo in time for the youth. Why there are many of church members who seldom ever go to church, some because they can't dross well enough to suit them, others who are able but don't want to pay anything. Some go to tippling and stay away on that account. Tho church will never do its duty until it keeps religious literature in every homo and it looks

know

as

though it was the only way to lessen crime and evil. Again what has the church over done to check intemperance? Practically nothing. Mothers you havo sons going to tho saloons. If you havo always believed that tho church was doing its duty, deceive yourselves no longer. The church is in almost as'much slavery to tho liquor element as the political parties are. The political parties mav havo something to lose. Tho church has all to gain. Many drug Btores have a part in the evil. About all that is ever hoard in the church is that a minister once in awhile will act the fool and want to pour some body's property out into the gutter. Whisky is sold according to law and how many church members have their names on petitions asking license to sell whisky. The minister don't know anything about this but he knows that some people drink whisky and play cards. Church festivals are things which come from the devil. And sciine in tho chprch aro not in favor of them while others havo been educated to think they aro all right. I havo known small boys to spend their first money there for ice cream, lemonade and other things and they were soon spending it for something stronger. Again there is not the least particle of religion in a wedding, Marriage is simply a lawful contract and by having the ceremony administered tho contract becomes legalized. Tho religion is all in the money there is in it. The parties are not so much to blame becauso it is the minister's duty to give the proper advice, but he is afraid that some one else gets his fingers on the money and that is where all the religion is. And after all this the church will stand amazed because tho world is not being converted. There is one thing inevitable. There is an Infinite being and he has set his seal that finite boings owe Him homage. S. C.

Hick's March Weather. .'fy

About tho 11th of March is always a critical time. A regular storm period is central on the 8th, its days of great violenco being from that dato to the 11th. These facts added to the full moon on tho morning of the 13th. indicate atmospheric and electrical disturbances of marked violence. Storms of general rain and snow will result at the same time, and a cold wave of great intensity will spread eastward and southward from about the 10th to 13th. The 14th and 15th are dates upon and touching which thero will bo a sudden chango to very warm, attended by electrical storms, and followed by chango of wind and sharp freezing up to about tho 18th.

A regular storm period is central on March 20th. The equinox of Mars on April 12, will also bring its full disturbing power into play by this time, so that every warning given for tho period 8th to 12th, will apply with added force to the period, lGth to 23rd inclusive. Great gales on sea and land must result upon and about these dates. Those who are looking for an open passage into wanner sumer weather, will find their hopes, and perhaps other possesions blighted byfrost between tho 22nd and 27th. Another sudden change from cool to very warm will occur 2Gth ro 28th, with rain southward, turning to snow in tho far West and North. The final dash of cold for the month will follow, up to the 30th. March will go out with rising temperature, and the appearanco of storms in tho West which will run into tho opening days of April.

SHOCKING STORY.

HALIFAX, N. S., March 3.—A dispatch from St. Johns, N. F.,gives details of the recent shocking disaster in Newfoundland by which at least forty lives were lost. Saturday last 220 men went out sealing in boats from Trinity bay. While they were on the lookout for seals the thermometer fell to zero and a terrible snowstorm came on. The sealers struggled hard for port, but were unable to eope with the wind, snow and an angry sea. They had no extra clothing and their small boats furnished no shelter. Some wore blown far out to sea, while others were frozen upon the ice where they were taking the seals. Many died in their boats.

Reaoned Only to Die.

Seventeen of the sealers were rescued by boats which put out from Trinidad bay to their assistance. These were found exhausted and in a pitiable plight Some of tliem died before they could be brought ashore.

Frozen In Their Boats.

Thirteen bodies were found frozen in their boats, which were covered with ice and had to be cut out. It is estimated that fully forty men have perished.

Most of those who were lost were fathers of families. There is great lamentation along the shores of Trinity bay. The legislature has adjourned as a mark of sympathy.

TAMPERED WITH THE JURY.

More Sensational Indictments expected In the Whisky Trust Canes. BOSTON, March 8.—More surprises are in store for the people most interested in the whisky trust cases. Those in a position to know say that it is not improbable that arrests will be made on indictments found by the federal grand jury now in session in this city which will create a profound sensation. The charge contained in these indictments is far more serious than those on which certain of the officials of the trust were arrested Monday. It is no less than a charge of tampering with members of the grand jury and of attempting to prevent the finding of an iudictment. The matter has been kept exceedingly quiet District Attorney Allen does not deny that indictments have been found he merely says he can give no information.

WRECK ON THE B. & O.
