Was Delivered By Evangelist Taylor last Evening BIG KNT WAS CROWDED Monty May Keep You Out of the Poor House Bui Not Out of Hell, Said the Evangelist A great audience listened wltu cloBe attention to Evangelist Taylor at the Kane street tent lust night. The music was better than usual, and at the close of the meeting 111 went forward and declared their Intention. to lead a better life. At the after noon meeting G5 children and young people had consecrated thomaclves to the service of Jesus Christ. Taking as his text Matthew 1:21, "And she shall bring forth a son, and thou Shalt call his name Jesus; for he shall save his people from their sins," the evangelist shelled the woods and routed the fulse tenchingH of the day which attempt to provide some othor way of salvation from sin. His denunciation of those cults which deny the existence of sin, which is plainly taught In the scriptures, was vogorous. He called a spade a spade, and mealy-mouthed people who fear to speak or hear the truth as It Is declared In the scriptures, no doubt got a crick In the back. "An nngel came all the way from heaven to earth to tell Mary how she should name tho .Messiah. The name .Icbus is synonymous with Joshua, which means 'Jehovah delivers.' Jehovah delivers through Jcbus Christ, Joshua was a great temporal dollveror; he saved the people from their enemies and delivered them Into the promised land. Jesus Christ Is a spiritual de liverer, and Ho will Bnve the people from their sins. Joseph Cook said to a priest of Tludha, 'Is there anything in your religion that will cleanse tho bloody handB of Lady Macbeth?' 'No,' answered tho priest.

" The speaker pointed out that all religions have some good precepts, and even Bob Ingersoll taught a good many things, but Christianity has a Savior from sin, while the pagan re ligions of the world ,have none. "Donf worry," he said, "about Clod being unjust. Ho will never hold up anything against you that Adnm did. It is not necessary. There Is enough of your own meanness to hold you for a while." We are loBt by our daily transgressions. Tho worst enemy you have is the fellow that walks under your hat. "Wo liavo heathen right hero In brightest Oregon that would make a Hottentot look like a two-spot." "We all hud sinned and come short of the glory ot Ood, nil mortgaged to the Devil, and Jesus on Calvary's cross paid It all." Man cannot lift himself by educa tion and culture. The people of Athens were educated, cultured, but I'uul in his epistles could not even refer to some or the sins that were current there In his day. We can find the highest achievement In art and literature and the lowest degra dation of morals at tho time time. Without Jesus Christ man is as help less before the aide or Bin as old King Canute was before the ocean which he vainly tried to drive back rrom tho shore. When Jesus Christ said, "Peace, be still," the winds and the waves obeyed him. Christian Science was denounced as containing neither Christianity nor science, and Dowclsm, Spiritualism and Psychic-Therapy woro vigorously nipped. Mrs. Eddy, tho founder of Christian Science, says there is no disease, no sin, no hell, nothing but Christian Science. When It Is writ ten, "Thou shall call his name Jesus lor Ho shall save his people rrom their Bin," to tell you there Is no sin Is going some. When you tell the averngc man there Is no hell', you tickle him in the right spot. "But. when I got to the point whero there Is nothing to do hut to extenuate tho crowd and condone their cusscdness, I will go on the stage." "If there Is no Devil, who Is It that Is running Ills business? You will have to show me." "It takes manhood and woman hood to be a Christian. Your wife's money may keep you out of the poor house, but her religion will never j keep you out of hell." Mr. Taylor cannot say enough In praise of Hoseburg, her climate, sur roundings and peop'e. Ills work here will close his Pacific Coast work, and this Full he will hold meetings in Ohio, and lie promises to tell every man that wants to come wesi 10 neau tor ltoseburg. The topic tonight will be "A Searching CJui'Btlon." Paul Taylor will slug, "Serving tho Lord In My Weak Way," a song composed and sung by Captain Stanley, the con verted uctor. Tho Bervico begins at 7:45. The Saturday evening audience was amply repaid with the stirring Bor mon on "Tho Price of a Soul, or If Hearts Were Diamonds," In which tho evangelist told of the extremes In which men will risk life and limb to get the diamonds of the initios or tho pearls of tho seas. Ot how much more worth is a human soul, bought with the prlco, (iod's only Son. Tho elTect of this sermon was telling, and that tho evangelist understood bis business was very niaulfesl. The experience of his twenty years in evangelistic work cropped out every where, and at tho close of the service a largo number of the rank and file of tho Hoseburg churches pledged themselves to Bervico in the meetings to follow.
