Here is about as pretty a story as
one often roads:
In a New York court a littlo girl
administered a rebuke to a lawyer.
The story follows: "Sadie Levine a
bright little girl of thirteen years,
startled Justice Foote and a jury in the
supreme couit yesterday by lecturing a
lawyer who sought to prove that she
bad testified fulsely in behalf of her
father, Fran Levine. He is suing the
New York City Railway company for
$25,000, alleging thac by reason of an
accident he has lost the power of
speech. The little girl testified about
an attack her father suffered four
weeks after he was injured. Then
Frederick Moses, counsel for the com
pany, took her in hand. Moses tried to
get her tangled up in her testimony.
When he had finished, Sadie was lold
she could leavo the Btand. 'Before I
go, yi.ur honor,' she said, standing up
and looking at Justice Foote, 'I want
to toll this lawyer something. He
acted as if everything I said was a lie.
He sneered at mo all through my testi
mony. If your honor will permit me,
I will take an oath again before the
Almighty that every word I said before
the court is true. I would not tell a
lie for my father or any one else'. 'It
is not necessary for you to take an
oath, my child.' Justice Foote replied:
'you took the oath when you took the
stand.' Yes, your honor, but Mr.
Moses sneered at me and aited as if I
was telling fibs. I want Co tell Mr.
Moses right now that he may have seen
little girls who would tell fibs in court,
but I want him to understand that I
am not that kind. 'Ho may have
doubted your testimony, little girl,' the
justice replied, 'but I do not, and I do
not think these men in the jury thought
you were fibbing. You are excused.' "
Of course Albany will have another

fruits this city does will to keop this

No city is good enough until it is edu
cated above blind-pigism. So long as
such things are permitted in a city
there is certainly a big field for a re

franchise to an association willing to !
pay an enormous price for it. It will j
vote it down with a whoop. Such a '
monopoly would be a disgrace to even
the whiskey business.

Saturday Night ThouRlita.
Some big speeches were made at a
conference this week jn peace and war,
with some red hot remarks in favor of
peace and peaceful measures among
the nations of the world. Instead of
great war demonstrations with mon
ster Oreadnaughts the sentiment was
in favor of less show and more real
peace preparation. It is an old saying
that in time of peace prepare for war;
but about the safest man in the world
is the man who doesn't own a revolver,
a begetter of trouble.
The senate has continued to tear
away at the fabric of tariff, and the
bill is pretty well in shreds by this
time; but it is high all the same, as
being prepared. Xt is being run into
politics, and the result is hard to tell.
It has gotten so there is little else be

does. The people can just look out for

A great deal is being said in the pa

in San Francisco for the prosecution of
the grafters. It is said over $200,000
has already been spent. As the matter
stands now it is almost a farce; and,
yet, atter all, a great deal of good has
been done in a general way as a pre
ventive of graft, even if the past ras
cals haven't been convicted as much as
they deserved to be.

continual round ot goad will, many
pleasant associations being formed that
will knit them closer together. Such
conventions in a city like Albany are a
splendid thing.
The big revival this week got down
to the good old fashioned style of hust-
ling for converts. Heretofore for
nearly two weeks the work of the
evangelist was to get the church mem
bers themselves in a condition for work,
laying the foundation, which was well
done apparently. Whatever the result
in numbers the meetings will have been
a good thing for the city, awakening a
widespread interest, reaching out much
further than the bounds of the city,
attracting attention generally through
the valley.

AT THE
TBAERNACLE.
Now for the Campaign for Saint
and Sinner.
Last evening, after the usual inspir
ing song service, and a thrilling solo
by Evangelist Wegner, Mr. Johnson,
took his text from Matt. 21:28, "Son,
go work today in my vineyard." Among
other things he said : "I think one rea
son why people are not more in earnest
about these things is that they do not
seem to realize the lost condition of
' ,hcir friends and loved ones,
They
can realize that the drunkard and har
lot are lost, but they shut their eyes to
the fact that God is no respecter of
persons, and that the most damning sin
in the catalogue is the rejection of Je
sus Christ, and that their own loved
ones are on that account slipping into
the pit.
"The first thing necessary for a man
to have to enable him to go out and
work for God is 'Assurance.' 'These
things are written unto you that believe
on the name of the Son of God, that
ye may know that ye have eternal life.'
We need men and women who have
this assurance, and who are earnest in
their desire to impart this assurance to
others.
"The second thing necessary in a
personal worker is faith in God's prom
ises. For these things are done in His
strength, not in our own.
"The. third thing necessary in a per
sonai worKer is courage moral cour
age. Too many are afraid of offending
their friends and associates. They arc
not afraid to talk with them about every
Bincr ining unucr tne sinning sun, but
can't talk to them about their eternal
destiny, even when they know they are
,on the road to
inc roau 10 nen. i ney arc even
afraid to invite tlicin to the Taber-
naclc afraid of a sneer. I believe that

to buill tllis Breat tabernacle as a wit-
ncss against some of these neonle who
will not darken the church doors, and
that if they refuse this opportunity, this
tabernacle will he as their death knell.
Above all, this work must be done
in the name of the Lord. Read the
story of the three Hebrew children and

drcd whom God could use. Nothing is
impossible wiin uou.
"Let us be in earnest about this thing.
Let us take time to pray. Let us take
time to get together in the afternoon
to talk and pray together. Leave no
stone unturned these days to bring
men and women to Jesus Christ."
Among the foes of the work of the
Lord, the speaker paid his respects to
the blind pigs, to covctousness, malice,
to dancing, to cards and gambling, to
the Sunday theatre.
Alter the sermon the great audience

those of our people who fail to at
tend the afternoon meetings at the
Tabernacle these, days arc missing a
great treat. The sermons of Evange
list Johnson arc both thoughtful and in
spiring and the work of Miss Shaffer
is most interesting and instructive. Even
those who have ahvavs regarded the Bi
ble as the Book of books are having
their eyes opened to new vistas of truth
and beauty. As the evangelist remarked,
these are great davs in . Albany. With
out doubt more people are studying their
Kilties and giving themselves to pravcr
:md to the consideration of things snir-
itual than ever before. The churches
of the city are working shoulder to
shoulder and there seems to be an ear
nest desire and purpose to have the
greatest religious meeting ever held in
the state of Oregon, uf course, there
arc knockers, but they don't count in
the face of the evident enthusiasm of
the great crowds that .fill the Taber
nacle from night to night. No one need
stay away for fear of feeling lonesome,
for the crowd is there every night. In
another week, it is believed standing
room will be at a premium.

of Albany (note the use of the two

'vg audience announced their intention

Yesterday was a busy dav among the
I eoplc who aie active in the big evan
gelistic services. In the forenoon cot
U;;c prayer meetings were held in more
than a score of Albany residences and
they were largely attended. There were
two meetings at the tabernacle in the
alieriioon and one last evening.
One of the leading meetings of the
day was thai for school children at the
First Christian Church. It was con
ducted by Mrs. Johnson and 150 chil
dren were present yesterday. The first
of these meetings for children was held
Wednesday and the last one of the
scries is in progress this afternoon.
Kev. Johnson urged the great im
portance of this meeting from the
tabernacle platform last evening and
a big crowd of children was ex
pected today. Mrs. Johnson has made
splendid talks to the children in this
series of meetings.
There were more people at the tab
ernacle yesterday afternoon than at any
afternoon service since the meetings
began. Included in the large crowd
were a number of business men. Rev.
Johnson talked on "Personal Work" and
his discourse was a splendid one. His
text was from James 1:22, "But be ye
doers of the Word and not hearers
only, deceiving your own selves." His
text was the theme of his sermon
throughout and he urged hand-to-hand
personal work.
Following the afternoon sermon yes
terday, Miss Olga P. Shaffer conducted
her class on "Personal Work," and con
tinued her interesting series of lectures
on this subject. She spoke on the prob
lem of how to meet the difficulties of
persons who want to be Christians and
have real difficulties in the way. For
instance, some people assert, the speak
er said, that they arc too great sinners
to be saved or that they cannot be
Christians and remain in the business
they are conducting. How to remove
the difficulties of this particular class
of people was the theme of Miss Shaf
fer's lecture.
One of the interested listeners at the
tabernacle meeting yesterday was Har
rison Johnson, one of the best known
pioneers of Linn County, who comes
down from his home at Lebanon espec
ially to attend the services. Mr. John
son came to this county in 1853 and has
resided here continuously since that
time. He is now 88 years old but en
joys remarkably good health and walks
about with the freedom of a man of
50. One would never guess that he
has already lived 18 years or in fact 5
years beyond the allotted three score
years and ten.
There were approximately 1800 peo
ple at the big tabernacle last night and
they not only heard a sermon distinctly
worth while but they enjoyed some of
the grandest music ever heard in Al
bany. A crowd of people never sang
like that in Albany before. The big
chorus choir was up to its standard form
but it was the people in the audience
who sang more than usual. When the
pianos and orchestra rang out the chor
us of "Harvest Days are Going By" the
big crowd almost followed Professor
Wegncr's plea to "raise the roof." It
made no difference last night whether
Professor Wegner called on the men or
the women, the Junior Choir or the peo
ple over 40 to sing. Everybody sang.
For the first time in the evangelistic
meetings, Professor Wegner called on
the pastors only to sing and the minis
ters on the platform sang lustily and
drew enthusiastic applause.
"For tlie Son of Man has come to seek
and to save that which was lost," was
Rev. Johnson's text in his first sermon
to sinners last night. He took it from
the 19th chapter of St. Luke.
The man who realizes he is lost is
tho man there is hope for, the speaker
said. It is the self-righteous Pharisee
who thinks that he doesn't need Jesus
that is the hardest man to reach.
"When you arc willing to look up in
to the face of God and say 'I'm lost' you
can be saved. You are lost on the
mountain of sin and Jesus Christ comes
and 'calls 'Make haste' for the Son of
Man is come to seek and to save that
which is lost."
Rev. Johnson gave instance after in
stance of people who were lost in for
ests, on mountains or in caves and said
that when they were ready to admit
tiiat they were lost and began to call
for help they could be rescued. It is
just the same way when a man is spir
itually lost, he said, and stated that
when a man wouldn't admit he needed
the power of Jesus Christ he could not
be saved.
"Some men say I've got a bank ac
count, a position in politics, in the lodge
and in society," he stated. "I'm as good
as anyone, they assert, and I don't need
religion. Rut what excuse will they
have to offer when they face their
God?"
Rev. Johnson told the story of the
man who was lost in a vast cave and
wandered 24 hours before he was found
by searching parties. He had given
up all hope of life and in that 24 hours
his hair turned white.
"If 24 hours of mental anguish will
turn a man's hair perfectly white," said
the evangelist as he drew the moral of
his illustration, "what will it be to be
cast into the bottomless pit of an eter
nal hell?"
"Make baste," the speaker cried time
and again, and each time he empha
sized the plea with, stories of how men
had just missed eternal life by putting
off their coining to Christ or how men
had accepted Christianity just in the
nick of time. "Make haste," was his
cry to the unsaved time after time and
he urged men to turn to Jesus Christ
before it was too late and they had been
hurled into eternity.
"I'm aware that it takes grit to walk
the streets of Albany for Jesus Christ,"
he said. "Hut I would rather be railed
at a little on this earth than to hear
the railings ot the damned in eternity.
Your culture can't save you; your
friends can't save you : your moiiey
can't save you; your lodge can't save
you. You can be saved only through
the power oi Jesus Christ."
"I can't understand." the evangelist
continued, "why people can have more
pleasure in playing cards, dancing and
drinking than in serving Jesus Christ.
Some men say I can't serve God in the
business I'm in. They may stay in
business 20 years and clear $5''0 a ycr
above all expenses. Would vou sci!
your soul for $10.1X10?"
"There are tv, o bidders lor your soul."
said Rev. Jol-'iM-.n in his peroration
"The Devil hl!? a life of case and of
