ELOQUENT Evangelist Taylor Delivers An Able Sermon TlNT was well crowded I Special Musical Program Much enjoyed By Ai Present at last Evening's Services Monday night Is usually considered a hard night to set a crowd together, and the lact that tbero was a good audience iu thu big Kane street tent lust night shows that the evangeliBlic meetings are taking a great hold on Koseburg. Again at the close ot the meeting some fifteen people went to the frout and either reconsecrated themselves or began the Christian life. Musical Director Lane Is getting the people used to some bright gos pel songs which are proving popular. and last night there was a Bpecial number by the chorus. Mrs. Taylor played a cornet solo which pleased the audience, and Paul Taylor sang with great effect Captain Stanley s song, "Serving the Lara in My woua Wav." The sermon was strong and was nreached from an Old Testament text. Lamentations 1:12, "Is It noth- lnn to you all ye that pass by?' "Jeremiah lamented the down-fallen condition of the people of Israel, Solomon's temple in ruins and the best of the people carried by Nebuch adnezzar into captivity. The city was in mourning, her gates desolate, a mlEhty nation had fallen into desola tion. Why? Because of grievous uln. Jeremiah, the old prophet seemed to feel as it the calamity of the nation had been rolled upon his nwn heart, but did the crowd feel it.' No, It was nothing to them. In the days of Moses a Jew would not step upon a piece of paper for fear the name of Jehovah might be written unon it. but now they would spit in God's face. There are men in Rose burg who would nail Jesus Christ to the cross if he were here. The same devil that has kept you out of the church for the last forty years la the same devil that nailed JeBus to the croBS. My brother, is It noin lng to you that people are going to hell dally in Roseburg, and you have not done your duty to stay the tide, to point them to the Lamb of Ood that taketh away the sin of the world? The purpose of the church is to evangelize the world, and if it does not do that It Is a failure. 1 don't care bow fine your churches may be, how luxurious your pews, how costly your carpet, how expen sive your organ, how eloquent your preacher, unless the church is an evangelizing agency, leading men to Christ, It is a failure for the very thing for which Jesus called It Into existence. "The devil never takes a vacation, he Is on the job all the time. "The trouble Is people don't want to do anything. God can't use a hltchlng-poBt or a tombstone in a cemetery. "If anybody is willing to do any thing, God can take that little aud multiply It until it will fill the world. "Thousands are going down hill around us every day, and never a sign nor a look nor a word nor a glad hand, nothing being done. "There are people In Roseburg who would walk over the red-hot embers of hell to serve the devil, but who would not stop over a straw to serve God. "Can you look upon the tragic tcene of Calvary, and say 'that 1b nothing to me?' Is it nothing to you that by your life you are trampling under foot your niother'B love and prayers? "Is it nbthlng to you, my brother, that your example Is on the wrong side and leading others astray? No man liveth unto himself and no man dieth unto himself. Is it nothing to you that you are wasting your golden hours and opportunities? They will never come again. Time and tide wait for no man. The mill will never rrlnd with the water that is past, esus said, 'Now 1b the acceptable Ime, and today le the day of salva lon.' If you would hear his voice, iarden net your heart. You will lear the last sermon one of these days, you will hear the last prayer one of these days, you will hear the last Invitation sung, you will hear the last call. You are taking a mighty long chance on a short life and a long eternity." The closing appeal wb strong and greatly affected the audience. The subject tonight is, "What Must I Do to Be Saved?"

And the Mound Und.r Which the Old Grecian Heroes Rest. A great Ureclun landmark Is the Suros. the mound erected over the graves of lift! Athenians who fell In the battle of Marutbon. Aug. 12, WO 0. C. The mound is about forty feet high and 300 yards in circumference. Underneath the mound lie the heroes who died In this most decisive victory which prevented the Persians from In fading Europe. The battle had hardly begun when the Persians In Immensely superior force, doubtless ten to one, pulled themselves together and by sheer mass broke through the Greek center. But this bud been calculated upon before hand. MllthideB employed strategy, making his line weak at the center, and allowed the Persians to break in. Then, with his heavy masses at the ends, be ground the Persian wings to pieces aud fell upon their center. The most stubborn fighting, apart from the battle at the ships, was probably at tills spot, bair a mile from the shore. Six thousand four hundred Persians lay on this plain and along the shore, while 11)2 meu of Muruthuu lay wrap ped in glory ou the held. It was long suspected that the he roes of Marathon were buried under the mound, but Air. Stals, one of the Greek ephorl of antiquities, studying the plain, came to the conclusion that the surface of the soil had been raised by alluvial deposits eight to ten feet above the level of 41X1 B. J. In 1SSW he drove a trench with a downward slant Into the center of the mound and found the bones of tbe heroes with their weaponB beside tbein. Strand Magazine. SINKING SHIPS. If Completely 8ubv4rged They Must Go to tl.e Bottom. Answering a correspondent who writes: "l am very anxious to And out whether a ship will sink If the bottom of the ocean ts at great depth or, at least, at such depth that tbe weight of the water would be greater tbun the weight of the ship. It Is the opinion of many that nt a certain deptb the ship would remain sus)ietided Instead of sinking to the bottom. Please ex plain tbe exact truth of the matter," Edgar Lucien Larkln In the New York American says: "Any mass that will entirely sink below the surface of the ocean will sink to tbe bottom of any sea or ocean on earth. This Is because water Is al most Incompressible. "Enormous pressure In hydraulic presses has been made upon distilled and also upon sea water, and the di minution of volume that Is, increase of density is only 0.000044 for ocean water for each atmosphere, 1. e., each addition of fifteen pounds to each square Inch. Then wnter soaked wood would be Increased In density by very nearly the snme amount. "Hence If all of tbe wood In a wood en ship sinks below tbe surface It must go to the bottom. The question of reaching tbe bottom of tbe ocean Is de cided for any kind of matter of any ship or boat by Its behavior at the sur face. If all of tbe material of tbe host sinks nt all below tbe surface, then It will fall to the bottom of any sea. there being such a slight increase In density of wntcr at tbe bottom of the deepest ocoau." Height of Waves. Among the most trustworthy selen rifle measurements of ocean waves are those of Lieutenant Paris of tbe French navy. The highest waves measured by him were in tbe Indian ocean between the Cape of Good Hope and the island of St. Paul. Thirty waves measured during a northwest gule there averaged twenty-nine and one-half feet in height, and six of them, following one another with beautiful regularity, were thirty-seven and one-half feet iu height Some still higher waves were seen, but not meas ured. In a moderate breeze tbe length of a wave was found to be about twenty-five times Its height, but In a gale only eighteen times. London Globe. A Kind Wish For Mother. The five-year-old found bis mother looking a bit unhappy. "Have you a pain, muvver?" he nak ed sympathetically. When she nodded be thought a minute aud then ex claimed: "I wish n fairy would come and turn your pain Into a piece of cake."
