Farewell Sermon,
Rev. W. A. Liridsey closed his ser
vices as supplv-pastor of tho First
Baptist church Sunday evening,
speaking to a well tilled auditorium
2 Timothy 2-11, 12, 13, subject, "The
Divine Life-force in Us." He closed
his farewell words to his pejple by
emphasizing the teaching of the
"Higher Life" as set forth In the
special service last spring and warn
ing Christians against drifting into
secular puisults as a mc:ns of procur
ing money for carrying on the work
of "The Kingdom"wliich, with "Ills
Righteousness," we are first to seek.
Whether these teachings are fol
lowed and the warning heeded, cer
tain It is that Brother Llndsey has
been faithful to what in all earnest
ness he believes to be the truth.
His church and friends will greatly
miss Brother Llndsey's animated dis
courses and earnest work, but we can
resign him to his chosen evangelistic
labors, knowing that our loss will
bring a corresponding gain to those
amonK whom lle works

Weather and Crops.
The state houso barometer stood
Just a shade on tho rainy side of
"change" this morning and at a point
It could easily predict either dry or
rainy weather while Polk county hills j
seemed to ho catching a light shower.
By 0 o'clock It was raining in Salem,
and kept up an oven drizzle until
noon, -when it quit, and has since been
cloudy.
The ofllclal United States weather
forecast for tonight and tomorrow is
"occasional light rain."
All day yesterday threshing crows
and hop pickers were busy, and much
valuable product was cleared out of
danger, It is conceded by all that the
reports of damago to crops by the rains
wero largely exaggerated and It Is
also probable that the present rain
will do but little harm.

Minn. In 1850 ho went to New Or
leans where lie was when tho clyll
war began. lie found It Im
possible to return north after
hostilities wero begun, and re
mained In New Orlean3 during
tho times when tho expression of
Union sentiments meant death to tho
loyal. When the Union troops took
possession of the city Mr. Prescott
joined a battery from his own state,
the First Maine battery, and enlisted.
At Port Hudson ho was wounded
and sent to tho hosplul where he re
mained until discharged October 19,

resting place. Most of ttie arrange "
ments for his funeral were made by
him a short time before his death,
with the same Interest he would have

publican until the silver question
arose when ho became a Bryan sup
porter, though still u Republican on
other questions. His religious affilia
tions were with the Unitarian church.

in the one living and truo God."
