A SUNDAY RIOT.

and Wallace Connor Try to Annihilate Jim Evans, Whose Wife Comes to the Rescue.

Warrants were issued Wednesday for arrest of Clint and Wallace Connor and Jim Evans, charging all of them with riot and charging the Connor boys with assault and battery. Evans is a son-in-law of Wash Connor, the father of the two in the case, and has been living with the old man near Mace. An altercation arose Sunday because Jim had been letting his hogs run on their land and they adjourned to the middle of the road to finish the argument. Jim had the losing side of the debate all the way through until his wife came to his rescue with a big club and the Connors were driven to an ignominious retreat. The lynx-eyed limb of the law found out about the rumpus and all are slated to appear before Squire Stilwell.

A man lame from his birth, having jicver walked, hears l'aul preach tlie gospel, wind, having l'aith to be hcalcil, l'aul commands liim to starnl upright, which he immediately does, leaping and walking. Such is briefly the story of those three verses. Being expelled from Antioeh, in Pisidia. the apostles ranie to Iconium and. notwithstanding opposition, abode there a long time, speaking boldly in the Lord, who granted signs and wonders to lie done by them. They so spake that a great multitude, botli of Jews and (•reeks, believed, but the opposition berame so great that they finally tied to Lystra, where we now find them preaching and healing. They not only preached the gospel, but they lived it in their daily life (I Tliess. ii, 10), and this is

THE CRAWFORDSVILLE M'EEKLY JOURNAL

They were about to worship Ftiul and Barnabas, believing them to be more than men. It suggests the question as to whether in the lives of most Christians there is anything to cause people to say: "That is not natural. There is something supernatural about that person. That meekness or patience or wisdom or power is of God." 11. They rent their clothes.

Are we as horrified to hear given to tis the praise which ought to be given to (iod only, or are we apt to covet this very thing and love to have it given out that we ourselves are some great people? (Chapter viii, 0.) The Lord Jesus sought neither Ilis own will nor His own glory, but always glorified the Father (.John vi, oS viii. 5u: xvii, 4). 15. Turn from these vanities unto the living Cod which made heaven and earth and the sea a.nd all things that are therein.

With great earnestness did the apostles seek to turn the people's thoughts from themselves, to (iod, as when the angel said to John, "See thou do it not worship God" (!tev. xxii, in. The tendency today is to think more of man than of God, and the great trouble is that many men do not feel troubled about it. but love to have it so. 10, 17. Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.

Since God placed man. on earth lie has been trying him in every possible way—in Eden and out of Eden, without law and under law, under grace and the special ministry of the Spirit— and he shall have one trial more under the personal reign of the Lord Jesus. In due tii-iie it shall be fully proved that man apart from God is only failure. In Rom. i, 120, 21, it is made plain that in all ages all are without excuse.

IS. Y\"ith these sayings searce restrained they tlie people that they had not done sacrifice to them. .--r

Having seen tlie impotent man healed through l'aul and Barnabas, it was hard to convince them that the work was not done by these men, but by one unseen whom these men represented. The natural man walks by sight, and it is ililticult to persuade him that anything is 'different from what his eyes see. Consider II Cor. iv, IS v, 7 lieb. xi. 27. 19. Having stoned Paul, they drew him out of the city, supposing he had been dead.

How fickle is man! The servants of

lie devil ul followed Paul ami Parlalnis from the other eilies and were successful that these people who were ready to worship Paul are now just is ready to slone him, and they diil stone him and left him for dead. 20. lie rose up and came into the city.

AVhile the disciples, helpless to pro teet him, slood around his apparently dead body God ptve him hack to them to their yroat surprise and joy, for his work was not yet accomplished. It may be that while his enemies were truisi»{j and so ill treating his poor body he was enjoying that of which he tells in II Cor. xii, 1-4, und, having en the glory, was strengthened for future service. 21. The day after the stoning Paul naid Barnabas sot forth to Derbe, where they also preached the gospel and made many disciples, and theu instead of going on to Paul's boihe at Tarsus, to which they were now quite near, they turn about, retrace their steps and visit again the very places where they had been so persecuted. llere are great words for us. By

Ilis word and Spirit we must be established and continue (Luke viii, 15 John viii, 81 11 Chron. x.\, 20) and learn to endure patiently for Ilis sake (Jas. i, 12 Rev. ii. 10 John xvi, 33). May the grace of God and the word of God and the kingdom of God be to us what it was to these apostles, and may we be Spirit filled and Christ occupied people, manifestly set apart for Himself, a people for His own possession (Ps. iv, Tit. ii, 14. It. V.).

the great need (11 Cor.

iv. 10. 11). 11. 12. The Kodr, are come down (o us In the likeness of men. and they culled Barnabas Jupiter and l'aul Mercurius.

God had truly ^ome to earth in the likeness of man. for God was in Christ, and .lestts Christ was God manifest in the ties!] (II Cor. v, IS) I Tim. iii. Hi). Hut these blind heat lien knew nothing ot the true Goil and worshiped many fanciful gods which had no existence. They gave to the servants of (iod these heathen names, just as the heathen did to Daniel and his friends in Babyion. We must not lie offended if people give us falsi names, for they called Jesus Beelzebub, glutton, wine bibber and told Ilim he bad a ilevil. 13. Then the ir!est of Jupiter which was before their city brought oxen ami purlanils unto the gates and would have done saerilice with the people.
