The Revival at the Christian Church.

One of the most enjoyable services of the series was held last night at the Christian church. Evangelist T. J. Legg delivered an excellent sermon on “Excuses.” Chrit’s parable of the wedding feast, where those invited excused themselves from accepting the invitation, was employed as the basis of the sermon. He localized the-parable and thus made it verypractical. He said the excuses that persons were making for not accepting Christ’s invitation were whitj lies with black hearts. He also said that no excuse would stand the test in the white light of the judgment. The music furnished bf the two choruses was better than usual. A ladies’ quartette, consisting of Mrs. Calvert, Alice Coen, Jessie Makeever, and Carrie Pierce sang ‘‘When the Lord shall Call His Own.” Mrs. Calvert told the sad story of the death by accident of a young man who shortly before, in a revival had been on the point of accepting Christ, but was discouraged by his lady friend. Then she sang “Not Tonight. ’ Mrs. Brady’s organ recitals are a pleasing feature introducing every evening’s service. The subject of tonight’s sermon is “The Infallibly Safe Course Under All Circumstances.” The Indiana Horticultural society will hold its annual convention at the state house in Indianapolis Dec. 7th and Bth. A program which is thought to be one of the best ever prepared by the organization will be given, and several of the leading fruit raisers in the country and also experts in subjects of horticulture will deliver addresses.
