Page Two. THE CONCORD TIMES. MONDAY, FEBRUARY . REPENTANCE AFTER DEATH. Is There a Chance For Sinners Be I yond the Grave? The following, written by a Con cordian, appeared in Sunday's Char lotte Observer, and we publish it by special request: During a short stay in a small town, recently, I attended services where I heard a sermon that has set me to thinking on this subject which is of vital importance to all people the Jew1 and the Gentile the Christian And the unbeliever the enlightened and the heathen. I once had a friend, a dear earnest Utile woman, but of imall mental force, who said on onei occasion when religious beliefs were under discus sion, " Well I ' am glad I have had some one to tell me lYhat to believe; and I just go on believing it." It is fortunate that we are not all Iik this, for tiiere would be nobody to tell us what to believe; it is far bet ter to arouse our minds to active re search and investigation of these vit al questions; in other words, to do our own thinking rather than fall in with the beliefs of others and from mere mental insertia, be led oftiraes into error. The purport of the sermon was to prove that the punishment for sin in the great heafter is not "forever and forever. " The preacher gave J several 'illustrations,'; which to my -mind proved nothing, and as a finale said "All will be saved, for, 'as in Adam all die even so' in Christ shall , all be' Trade alive.' " These words, we all know, were uttered by Paul id proof of the resurrection from the dead. ITe said: "But now is Christ risen from the dead and become the: first fruits of them that slept. For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection 7 of the . dead. For as in Adam-all die, even, i -J so in Christ shall all bo made alive. 11 This clearly refers to the rising of the body from the grave and cannot possibly1 mean that those who die m theirj sins are, after death, forgiv , e.i and paved. No doubt some of his hearers went away comforted with the thought that no. matter how we live or die, here, there is a chance, in the other world, a chancer did I sayf Oh, , no I according to this? man's teaching a surety ;that we will come out of hell and bo saved. There are many mysteries that can never be elucidated by any finite mind and it behooves lus all to be very careful lest we mislead thosft who glad to have some one to tell them what to believe. X do not say there will never be an other chs-ce after we pass out of this rvorld,. for I do not know. God, in -'His. great mercy, may have a plan by .which we can explain our sins; by vhieb we can make reparation or -atonement for our sins, beyond the i?ravc, but if He has, He has never .' Tevealfd it unto us, and it is far bet ter lor us to feel and teach that we must make our peace with God, here, - on this earth or be forever lost: then ";-rc mia m tne great hereafter, -that - iuose oi our loved ones who have re-r-ctei the Savior, and been cast into perdii.ion have, through God's mercy,' another chance to be saved, 'twill be ' glorious revelation. But, with no ; -lifrlni upon this phase of the subject, and with so much in the Bible to con "yince us that there is no hope beyond the crave, what SURVEYORS IN CONCORD.

They will likely remain there for three months yet. This is the critical sec tion of the route. The entire distance from the river to Troy leads through the center of the chain of Uwharrie Mountains and it will be recessary, should this route be adopted, to cut the very heart of them for the line. As the situation now is this is the most .likely route to be adopted.

Heavy covering of sh rt obligations, for Southern, lo cal Wall street jand Waldorf-Astoria bears has fanned the flames already started by big buying by spot houses, Liverpool people and commission houses acting on orders from various parts of the county. The West has been buying. - Wall street interests have tiiken profits to some extent but they are in many ca?es br.Jlish as to the outlook, the i Pell-Thompson inter ests, it is believt d, being the leaders in that quarter. Memphis and Texas shorts have covered it is said on big scale. The ! Liverpool spot sales have much of the time been 12.000 to 15,000 bales. Manchester, according to all 'accounts, is doing an enormous business, principally because of the depleted stocks in the countries which it chiefly serves! favored by a rising price for silver which has reached 27 ll-16d. in London, the highest quotation for seven years. It is not speculation which has put up prices at New York during the past week so much as the voracious buying by the consumer. Big spot houses have bought in some cases 50?- 000 bales in a single day.

Baxter Shemwell to Make Final Ap pearance. Greensboro News,' 10th. Judgo'C. 31. Cook will return here Monday to begin three weeks court, the first two weeks being devoted to the civil calendar and the last to the criminal docket! On the criminal docket are several cases of general interest, ontable! ones being against Ed Hodgin and Dave Settle for mur der and John and Bob Lambeth,; of Thorn asville, for conspiracy to pro- auee abortion. jOt the three it is more than probable that continuances will be granted in all except the case or f.d Hodgin, it being understood that his counsel will press for trial while those. of the other defendants will seek continuances. Another feature of interest durin the criminal term will be the final appearance of Baxter Shemwell to show good behavior. It is remember- ea mat bhemwell has been under sentence to appear before the Feb ruary term of Guilford court each year and show his good behavior during the past 12 months. There was an insistent demand that the addresses of the convention be published in booh form and the mn in ten minutes subscribed for enough copies to assure the publication. At the afternoon session there wiTe four magnificent addresses. The'first was by tlu president of the Korean Mission Board. Dr. R. C. Holland who made a strong plea for a policy ade quate to the work. 3fr. J. C. Campbell White, of Xvw York, the national secretary, made a splendid address in enlisting the vlm!e church. D.
