A large audience of about six hundred, in spite of the very bad weather, greeted the Evangelist, a splendid token of the high esteem In which he is held by Richmond peo ple. A large number of people from other churches have attended the meetings, a fine spirit of fellowship and co-operation. Mr. Sayers has made Mr himself among us a large place as a strong, fearless, preacher of fun damental Gospel truth, honoring the Scripture as the Word of God, and calling men to a high standard of Christian living, yet always in his characteristic cheerful way that left one liking him the more. "Our faces are pretty good Indicators of our character. Some people look like the real thing on the outside but are no good on the inside. I would rathe. be pure tin than counterfeit gold. Hypocrites are counterfeit and there are no hypocrites in heaven," said the evangelist Saturday night. ' The world loves a fighter but detests a dodger. The most monotonous life in the world is doing the same old sin over and over again." Among the thoughts in the Sunday morning sermon were: "We crowd Jesus out of our lives because we have less worthy guests in our hearts. There is no emphasis on anything because we emphasize too many things. The things of heaven are the first things. These days tin world seems to have gone amusement mad. Some people have gone so stale on one another's hands that they have to play with pasteboard cards to amuse themselves." Sunday night the evangelist said: "The more efficient we become the more optimistic we are. Sin lowers our efficiency but in Christ we achieve our highest and best. Faith laughs at impossibilities and we must have faith in God, in ourselves and in our follow men. Any old thing can go down hill but it takes a man to climb I up." NAME COMMITTEES ON NOMINATIONS Appointment of two nominating committees to draw up tickets for the annual election of officers on the last Saturday of March, was made at the regular meeting of the T. P. A. Saturday night. A blue and a white ticket will be selected. Following are the committee: For the blue ticket Roy Fry, William Kramer and William Bartel ; for the white ticket, Theodore Hill, Leroy Browne and Anson D wiggins of Fountain City. The committee composed of T. C. Harrington, Will Quigg and Elmer Lobo, which was appointed to amend the constitution and draft new by-laws will report at the next business session. Two new applications were approved Saturday night, making the total membership 555. About fifty members attended the session. Clifford Caldwell is head of the organization. RIVER RISES Continued From Page One. was reported. Other than flooding the section around Morton Lake to a comparatively small extent, Whitewater did no damage in the city. Starr Runs Pumps. Back water in the sewers caused the necessity of working the pumps at the Starr Piano company's buildings to prevent the water running into the basements. For the last two or three days the pumps have been handled for about fifteen minutes every two hours. The water reached a stage of 8 feet and lacked about 9 inches of entering the basements. So far as known no record was made of the height which was reached by the river here but persons living in the vicinity declare the river undoubtedly rose to the highest stage since the flood of 1913. This stage was reached early this morning and soon after a feradual recession began. f The world's richest tin mine is one la Tasmania.

RICHMOND IS CLEAN, COMPARISON SHOWS A comparison of the 1915 police records of four Indiaaa cities of approximately the same population, Richmond, Muncie, Anderson and Marion, show that there was less drunkenness and less immorality in Anderson and Richmond, both "wet" cities, than in their two "dry" sister municipalities. Arrests on charges of public Intoxication last year in the four cities were as follows: Marion 656, Muncie 456, Richmond 410, Anderson 373. Arrests on j charges of immorality were: Marion 116, Muncie 91, Ander son 16, and Richmond 10,

RED MEN WITNESS RITUALISTIC EXERCISE Nearly 500 Red Men, including members of the Fountain City and Cambridge City lodges, met in the Red Men's hall here Saturday and witnessed ritualistic work. Delegations of thirty Red Men from Troy, Ohio, and twenty-five from Carlos City including the degree teams of those places were here. The Troy team conferred two degrees, th Carlos City team one degree and the Hokendauqua t'iam conferred one degree upon the following candidates: Harry Little, William Stevens, Bert Ewbank, Wil liam Goble, Charles Dean and Andrew Thompson. A 6 o'clock supper was served in the hall to the visiting delegations and the entertainment in the evening was concluded with lunch and refreshments. BANDITS KILL Continued From Page One. Mrs. Charles Teiper, a leader in Buffalo society, were shot to death by the highwaymen. Grace Teiper, a sister of the slain map, suffered a fractured skull from a blow struck by one of the bandits and is expected to die. She was brought to a local hospital with another brother, John Teiper, who was also brutal'y beaten. His injuries are severe, but he probably will recover. COLORED MEN Continued From Page One. candidate will be, but he will be a man who can command the support of every colored voter in Wayne county," Richardson said. "There are approximately 700 colored Republican voters in this county, about fifty per cent of the Republican voting strength. We think one of our race is entitled to a county office. Only three colored men now hold public office. One is a policeman, one janitor of the city building and the other a city physician. Names Other Candidates. "We colored Republicans also intend to select two candidates for delegates to the Republican state convention. We do not know as yet the two wards we will select to enter our delegate candidates from. It is planned to nominate two men who will support James P. Goodrich for governor aad Harry S. New for senator. "It Is also planned to have the meeting indorse the candidacy of Judge D. W. Comstock for the Republican congressional nomination." The small army of white candidates for the Republican nomination for county recorder are greatly worried over the announcement that a colored man will enter the contest. They realize that if such a candidate could command the complete support of the colored voters he would probably win the nomination. Brooklyn, N. Y., in 1916 has 150 fewer saloons than in 1915.

METHODISM UNITES .

Ill REVIVAL SERIES Union revival services for the three Methodist churches in Richmond will begin Sunday night at the First Methodist church with the Kerr brothers, noted evangelists, conducting the worship.

Choirs of the combined churches will assist with the music. After Sunday night the services will be held in the Grace Methodist church at Tenth and North A streets. REVIVAL TO CONTINUE Such interest has been manifested in the revival services at the Fairview Methodist church that they will be continued until Wednesday night of this week, according to announcement of the pastor.

Edward Gaugel (Bud Lally) was arrested Saturday night on a charge of selling liquor to minors. The case has not been set for trial. Gaugel is employed by a South Ninth street saloonist as bartender. Three boys, Lester Johnson, 17, Marshall Macke, 17, and Paul Knoll, 16, who were found intoxicated Saturday night told the police they obtained their booze from Gaugel. OBSERVE Continued From Page One. success can result only from the saving of money. "The only real purpose of saving of any kind" said Mr. Gaar in discussing the purpose of the movement today, "Is that it may enable a person to have a larger and better use of his income. "As a matter of fact" he continued, "the average person does not like to be told that he is extravagant. Nor is he much frightened by holding up to him the fate that comes to those who neglect to 6ave. "Probably a movement of this character could accomplish much good if its proponents pay a little more attention than they have heretofore done to making their program palata ble. Most of the preaching and teach ing done on this line begins and ends with the same advice save your money instead of spending it. "But if men in modest circumstances, and who are dependent upon others for employment and wages, can be shown that by the exercise of thrift that is, by the prudent expenditure of so much of their income as is necessary to maintain themselves and families in reasonable comfort and the laying aside of the remainder they may free themselves from this dependence and step from the ranks of employes into the employers class; or that this saving will enable them, by careful investing, to add to their own scale of comfort, here will be arguments of more compelling force than all the horrible examples of extravagance and squandering that can be brought forward to frighten the unthrifty."
