XfMS9 Tlie MectlssiE a cioi m Tomorrow EYCnlfsa-, There was, doubtless, the largest con gregation at the First Baptist church last evening that has attended the even ing revival meeting since Dr. Wharton began preaching. All available space in the aisles was filled and the gallery was crowded. Dr. Wharton told the old, old story in his usual powerful style and with good result. His sermon was from the text : We are Journeying unto the place of which the L.ord said. I wiU give it yon: come then with us and we will do thee Brood. Num. 10:29. "We are journ-yinf, friends, said Dr. Wharton, "there is no doubt of that. Here we are 24 hours nearer the grave than we were this time last -,!ht. The grave and what then? The scientists have long been disputing about what man came from. Why. that docs not make anjr difference. We are here. The question is. where are we going ? if you ask the christian whither he is going there is not one here tonight but will tell you be is on the way to heaven. Ask those who arc not christians and they will tell you they do not know. They are like a blindfolded man rolling a wheelbarrow, they have no idea where they are going. "Wc are better than the sinners in our Dope, i our only noe is in your own poor little puny self. The christian will tell you " 'My hope Is built on nothins; less Than Jesus' blood and righteousness.' "We are better than you in our prom ises. It is said that there are no less than 60,000 promises in the Bible. Were I the weakest christian in the house to night I would not exchange places with the strongest wordly man in the world. The devil will try to get you off from God's promises whenever he can. Don't let him do that, my friend. We have God's promise and that is the only way to heaven. Don't go out into the world and then come here with your hypocriti cal mask on and think you can fool God. You may fool the church, but you cannot fool God. "There arc many weak christians in the world, but the weakest of them would not exchange the lioic that is in him for all the world. There is not money enough on earth to buv it from him. Christianity is the most unscltish thing you can find anywhere. It does not get up a germ an and invite a select few, with their swallowtail coats and so on. That is selfishness. God swings wide the doors of heaven anjsavs 'Who soever will may come.' That is u isell ishness. "Do you know I believe the gospel can be put into two words: 'Come' and 'Go.' Come to Jesus; receive Him, be lieve on Him. and then go everywhere laboring for Him. Come, young man, away from the life you are livine. It will ruin you. Old man, come out of the rut in which you have been traveling away from God come to Him. 'Come with us and we will do thee good.' The best people in the world are christians. I want to live with them always. Come with us and you will do us good. You will add strength to the church. Now, you are lending your influence to the world. I saw a man today who was asked if he had been to these meetings. 'No,' he said, 'my wife goes for both of us.' It reminds me of the story of the man who made the same excuse. He dreamed that he died and went to the gates of heaven and asked to be ad mitted when he was told 'Your wile has gone in for both of you.' We want your help and work. It is a bard, hard fight these days against the enemy. "If you don't feel sure about lcing a christian just start out here and try to bring a soul to Christ and you will be the happiest christian you ever saw. It is the best thing in the world to do cvciy dav trying to save some one to Christ. You will do us good and we will do you good. Some people go about flaunting before the world the declara tion 'I am an infidel.' I don't believe there is really an infidel in the world. I don't believe Bob Ingersoll is an infidel. Head his oration over the grave of his dead brother and his remarks at the Walt Whitman banquet in Philadelphia. And yet Ingersoll is going up and down the country undermining religion wherever ue can. "Every day brings us nearer the grave. Don't forget that when the last hour shall come it will be the happiest day of the christian's life. You wiU be stepping into that land of which the Lord said, '1 will give it you.' By and by the fight will be over and the victory won. It will be well with you if you take Jesus as your Savior. Will you do so tonight? God help you to accept Him." The invitation was accepted by many persons who desired to come out on the Lord's side. Dr. Wharton bas five appointments lor tomorrow, as follows : In the morn ing at 10:30 he will talk to the Sunday school; at 11 he will preach the regular morning sermon; at 3:30 p. m. there will be a mars meeting for all, to . which the children of the city Sunday schools are specially invited; at 4:30 be will make an addrcrs to young men at the Grand opera house under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A., and at 8:30 he will preach his last sermon of the revival at the First Baptist church. Thieves Get Some: of Uncle Rtin'i Honey at Alexander. The postoffice at Alexander, ten miles north of Asheville, was robbed onThurr day night. As near as has been obtained the thieves got $203.29 belonging to the money funds, $7 or $8 postal money, and about $28 worth of postage stamps. In addition to this the thicl got four watches, some tobacco, about a dozen boxes of sardines, and a few other small articles. The bulk of the money was kept in a case used by the postmaster for the money order funds. Entrance was made through a window, by prying the blind off and entering through a broken win dow pane. The postmaster. D. J. Hunsucker, was at home sick, and bad not been at the office for more than a week. The deputy postmaster, W. L. Kuy kendall, was also absent, having been summoned to Henderson county to at tend a trial. Mr. Kuykcndall's wife spent the night at her brother-in-law's, nearly a mile away from the office, and did not know of the robbery until Friday morn ing. The authorities in Washington have been notified of the robbery. Two negroes and two white men, sup posed to he tramps, were keen about the neighborhood on Thursday evening. This is the only clue given as to who committed the robbery. IT IS HIGHWAY ROBBERY POOR l,ITTI,E SIAH HOLDS UP HICR HANOI. M. & C INBTITITTE. on The Seconal Session Opent neptember 13. The second session of the Normal and Collegiate institute, located in the beau tiful suburb of Victoria will open Sept. 13. The hrst year of its history was a verv successful one. The enrollment of pupils was 138, and of these 123 were boarders. The promises made in the modest circular given to the public one year ago have been more than fulfilled, and the management can now look con fidently forward to a prosperous future. The aim of the institute is to provide solid and thorough training in each de partment, under teachers competent and qualified to use the best modern meth ods. The terms are placed at the lowest practicable figures, that the advantages offered may be within the reach of the largest number, especially those who are desirous ot becoming teachers, ana all others who may find it impossible to avail themselves of like privileges iu con nection with more expensive institu tions. The institute is pre-eminently a christian school and its paramount ob jeet the development of christian charac ter. Those desirous of sending their daugh tcrs to school would do well to consult the card of the institute in another col umn of Tub Citizen today. HI.c Accents lite ultimatum in lis Eutlretw. And Pleads Plteoasljr For peace And Reconciliation.

Devcllc, the French foreign minister that Siam accepts the ultima tum in its entirety. The dispatch adds that the Siamese government hopes that the blockade will cease, that diplomatic negotiations will be resumed, and that an early settle ment of the trouble will be effected.
