ANOTHER RKlUCTION The Eminent Divine the Wat or Lit I Practical Way. to a Cong; re station. The congregation at the first Baptist cbttrcli last evening- was targe cnowgb to pack the auditorium and fill the gallery. while Dr. Wharton preached another of his plain yet practical and powerful ser mons. His first scripture lesson was from the 15th chapter of Luke. The congregation was then given a rare treat in a solo by Mrs. Fraley, of Nash ville, Term., accompanied on the organ bv Frof. Graban. Mrs. Fr a ley's voice is rich, sweet, beautiful, and ber singing made the bearers wish that they might listen much longer. Dr. Wharton preached l-um the text This man receivcth siimcrV Luke 15:2. '"It is a remarkable thing," said Dr. Wharton, . "that some of the greatest truths spoken about Christ were spoken by His enemies, and in derision. The text was spoken by His enemies. 'This man rcceiveth sinners. That was so; he did not deny it. He said, 'Wouldn't you go and find your sheep? These are my lost sheep.' 'This man receivcth sin ners.' So it is that nut of the mouths of His enemies do we learn great truths. The text, every word of it, comes to u burdened with precious truths. They might have found some other mark of distinction about him. They might have said He was unselfish. He thought not of Himself. I wonder if wc ever do any thing that is entirclv unselfish. I think Mr. Belole Has a Few Words In Reply. Editor Tub Citizen: I noticed a com ment from W. B. Wolfe in your last issue on Mr, Starnes letter, in which he knowingly docs me a great injustice, as a contractor for the cement pavement. He well knows that the work was done in accordance with the specifications and under auperintendency of the city engin eer, and was tendered in a first-clas and workmanlike manner, and accepted by the city on Mr. Lee's recommendation. He further knows that the injury to the work was caused by the severe weather immediately following the completion ol same. He also knows that work laid on paved streets where it was well drained is in good condition now. He willfully tries to mislead the public about the cost, as there was only about six thousand dollars worth of work done and all repairs needed cau be made for about seven hundred dollars instead of I seven thousand, as stated bv him. And he is the first person to find fault of work done on North Main street by me. As for as 1 ant able to judge, the worst work on that street was done in front of the Farmer's warehouse by him lor which be received about 75 cents more per yard than the city paid. And in conclusion, 1 think before Mr. Wolfe again criticises1 other contracts, it would be well for him to take a look at the city hall where he was paid for doing first class plastering, and it he or any one can rind a create! botch in Asheville or elsewhere than here. tbey can find more than I, after twenty years experience at the business.

Many a time have yon seen ber at your cradle watch ing oyer you when you were ill, while she was worse than you were. And now yon are paying her back, are you not? Jesus was utterly unselfish. Wherever there was anybody in distress, He was willing to go to their relief." At this point in the sermon the fire alarm sounded and a number of people in the congregation manifested uneasi ness and soon after left the church. Among those who left were business men, firemen, boys and a few girls. Said Dr. Wharton, "If anybody else feels like they can't get along at the fire without tnem, they can go now. I don t think girls in white dresses on ought to go to n fire they might catch afire." The rebuke was merited, except by the firemen and. perhaps, the merchants, who felt inter ested in knowing whether the blaze was likely to affect their places of business.. "They might." continued lr. V harton. "have said that Jesus was perfect, for 11c was the most perfect man that ever walked the face of the earth. 1 am not talking to a set of perfect people. You know and 1 know well enough that wc are not perfect. After 20 years of preach ing, Paul said 'I am not perfect.' Let me tell you of a mistake you make. You expect to be perfect when you come into the church. Babes must crawl before they can walk. "There is another view: Jesus as a man. He looked like a man. He laughed like a man. You say, 'But, Mr. Wharton, It does not say in the Bible that He laughed.' No, nor docs it say that He breathed. But I suppose He laughed. Mother, don't you suppose that when sweet little girls came to Him, and He took them up in His arms, that He laughed ? "1 don't doubt His- divinity I never have since He saved me. This man whom I preach to you tonight is able to save you; He can save every one of you. "Do you feel like you are a sinner? When you do, there is hope for you. It is the man who holds up bis head and says 'I'm not a bad man,' that the devil has a mortgage on; and he will foreclose it, too, some of these days. " 'This man receivcth sinners.' He is holding a reception tonight. I have read of receptions in the society world where the host and hostess had to be put to bed before the company left, and where otic fellow was actually found in the bathtub, where he had gone thinking he was going to netl. And this is the kinl of tiling that is going on in this world. Jesus invites you to the reception. Come along in. What does be do when you are received? He forgives' your sins. What next ? He puts you iu better com pany, lake the christians out ot Asheville tonight and wbat sort of a town would you have tomorrow ? They are the salt of the earth. The beat place in the world is the church. You might put me out but I would come back and ask vou to receive me again. "Wbat next does He do ? Puts you to work. Tonight there is some soul you can save. Who is there for you to save ? I don't know, but it may be your son or your brother. You ought to go away from here saying 'God helping me I will save somebody.' "The last thing Jesus docs is to receive you up Into heaven. One of theyoung men who came up berefor praver waslaugned at on the ft reels and was asked 'What do you make by it?' He answered, I will make a blessed home in heaven.' After all our crosses and trials are over we shall wake up in heaven and looking into the face of Jesus, we will say 'Thank God, I am at home.' 'This man re ceivcth sinners.' Will you receive him in vour hearts tonight ? God help you to do so." A number of persons asked for prayer, and an after-meeting of exceeding inter est followed the sermon.

IT. Buiidi0ar BuKBe.ted, stud will te Carried out whets Hard Times 8tot. Waynesvillu, N. C, July 26. The . C. T. U. Southern assembly glided into the work of the State convention on Tuesday morning. Mrs. Cadwalader, of Florida, opened the exercises by read ing the 27th Psalm. Mrs. Hilliard introduced the president, the key note of whose address was given in the opening sentence. Mrs. Woody said, "To meet the needs of the present time is the work of the present genera tion," conclusively showing that indi vidual organizations and even churches, attempting to go forward on the plane of the last century' need, in reality fell backward and would ever be found in the rear of opportunity. She showed the call of women to a broader, less mater ial sphere ot service than our mothers were wont to fill, when strongmen felled tbe forests and young women spun their bridal robes. As tbe needs of tbe day were changing so were its ideals. Along with these ideals comes to woman the consciousness to meet the new require ment under tbe old regime. And so wc now find woman organizing all along the line to meet her manifest destiny. And thus began to grow tbe W. C T. U. plan for "Schools of Method" for christiau work. That these are chris tian in purpose and in result, is evi denced by tbe class of women they draw, and the character of work accomplished by them as shown in reports. Airs, woody spoke of Waynesville as the ideal place for locating a building dedicated to this work, "where moun tains lie fold on fold against the clear blue sky." J he corresponding secretary. Mrs. K. H. Walter, followed with a clear, full statement of work accomplished by her during tbe year. Mrs. Uranner tben read an interesting paper on the memorial fund to be used in connection with the assembly building, A general discussion ol attairs followed. in which Messrs. Oilmcr, Boone, Rogers and Howell participated. At the noontide bour prayer was of fered that God would ocn the way for the completion ot tins building. Mr, Howell moved to plac two canvassers in the field so soon as the financial crisis shall have passed. This was carried and tbe executive committee was directed to appoint the canvassers. It was moved that we covenant to remember these canvassers at the noontide hour through tbe year. Carried. l he convention tben went into execu tive session. THE HARD TIMES. Mich THIS KANSAS STRIKE, Nrxrocs Pol Inside of a stockade and Hetnar Drilled. Wi:ik City, Kan., July 26. An inter esting fact in regard to tbe strike among the coal miners was made public today It is that negroes imported from Ala bama, Tennessee, and other States to take the place of the strikers, have been placed under military discipline. They are csnfinad in a well built stockade and whenever one mutinies he is itnmedi ately throwti outside the breast works. Capt. CIcary, of St. Louis, is in charge of the negroes. Capt. Cleary is famous lor his service in protecting property during the great Burlington strike and also during the southwestern strike led by Martin Irons in 1886. His experience in this line is very crcat and his nerve an questioned. He is now engaged in drill ing the negroes in the stockade. Yester day evening he went through a number of movements with them, telling them he wanted them to understand and act promptly as they might have to fight. and so on. This indicates that the ne groes understand the situation thor oughly. Tills sounds In at Like iKan Kdttor. New York, July 24. William 13. Quin- by, late editor of tbe Detroit Free Press just before sailing for his post of duty as minister to the Hacrue. cave out this re markable opinion as to the cause ol tne hard times: "I think, what is making money scarce is tbe tact that many thou sands of people are saving their money to go to the World's Fair. Perhaps 3,000,000 are saving, say, $100 each. which will make tbe enormous sum ol $300,000,000 temporarily hoarded. When this money begins to circulate it will help to relieve the financial situation."
