with tbe earlv history of the county. He
was kind and considerate, a man of sober
industrious habits, in fact a man tbat
will be missed wherever known.

The revival services conducts J at the
M. K. Church by Evangelist Marsbel ol
California, continue to draw large crowds
anr a constantly increuirg interest is
manifrsted. Tbo large edifice is filled to
ovet flowing at each service and upwards
of 60 conversions have already been
made. Tbs mtetiogs wi.l contioue all

greatest revival held in this city for
yea p.
Tue evsngo' let delivered a st-rmon on
aucing SiturJay evtning aod tbe larje
church was filled to overflowing, many
being turned away. Tbe sermon con
sisted largely of quotations from eminent
divines representing tbe various religions
denominations, including tbs Rm.n
atbolic church, which was in'erspersed
with a forceful eibortation against as
sociating with bad company and.a word
portrayal of tbs evils tbat accr ue from
tbe ball room and its s'uJal associations
Tbe quotations and extracts presented,
were followed in conclusion with oncom-
prcinblog attacks on the dance as a so
cial Institution, with vivid snd effective
illustrations ot the. points raised, and
with personal and p-itbelic appeals.
Ha nrged parents to teach their chil
dren lo understand and shun tbe evils
of the ball room. Declaring tbat "if tbe
daughters are tanght to shun each places
the boys aud young men will stay away
too. Public balls are places ot evil got
ten op on a purely financial basis, where
promlscious dancers attend whom pare
women would only touch outside of tbe
dance with gloved hands. This I know.
I cry out earneetly against tbe inconsis
tency that will permit a woman to come
in bodily contact with a man in the
dance, whom she would re-fate to recog-
nisa on tbe street or elsewhere." He
did not insist that all patrons of tbe
dance were wso iog in purity or morali
ty, but suggested that suoh l'lacei were
tbe rendezvous for libsrtles aod moral
lepers and a piece at which the ptimary
lessons iu ein are iucobated and re nnr
tshed until they are developed into l
manners of debauchery.
