Township meetings next Saturday Septem her 20th. Miss Marv Johnson celebrated her thirteenth birthday by giving a party in the lown Hall last Saturday night to fifty of her little friends. . Rev. C. L. Hoffman, having been called away, requests us to announce that there will be no services at Perkins' school-house next Sunday. Some of the Morganton pro- (luce dealers cornered the exp and chicken market last Friday and Saturday and sent the prices up from fifty to one hundred per cent. Dr. J. R.

The Morganton. brass band has been revived. Handsome new instruments have been our chased, and the twelve members of the band are practicing indus triously. It is pretty tough on the nerves now, but when they "learn how" we shall expect such music as will fully compensate the town for all the trouble it is having at this writing. Don't forget the primary con ventions to be held in every towh- ship in Burke county next Satur day. Every Democrat who wants ; r 1 1 . a vuice in ine selection or our county candidates and our mem ber of the House of Representa tives should attend. If he does noi go out to tne township con tentions h. cannot complain if liis man is not nominated next tveek. The Republican Congression al Convention meets in Lenoir to-day. It is likely that the right Honorable Tyre York will receive the nomination, or as the ReDub licans of this part of the State, in their inscrutable wisdom, some times prefer to call it, will be "en dorsed." They will also be ex pected to give somebody their "endossment" for the position of Collector of Internal Revenue to succeed the lamented Eaves. The infant child of Mr. B. F. uav ib tdiuc near meeting with a fatal accident one day last week. A servant, who was scrubbing the floor, left a can of concentrated lye on the window sill, and the baby got hold of the can and put n to us moutn. t ortunately none of the lye was swallowed, but the childs mouth was fearfully burned and swollen. Had any of the lye been swallowed the physicians say death would have been al most instantaneous. it is proposed by some that in the township conventions held next Saturday ballot boxes be provided where each Democrat present may vote and express his preferences for the various offices and for the member of the Legis lature, and that the townshp votes in the county convention be cast in proportion to the number of votes received by the several can didates. This would-seem to be fair, though we do not know how many townships .will adopt the plan. We learn that Lower Creek will take a ballot. Mr. W. M. Audis has presented The Herasd with a Hayti yam that is twenty inches in circum ference and weighs seven pounds. It is the first potato we ever saw large enough to get a genuine "square meal" out of that is about six inches each way. Judge Bynum had a five pounder of the same variety on exhibition last week, but he will now have go and "grabble" in his patch again or lose all chances of getting into the Farmers' Alliance as the champion potato raiser of the county. The Republican Senatorial Convention of the thirty-sixth distract, met in Bakersville last Saturday and nominated Moses Harshaw, of Caldwell and G. M. ay, of Yancey for the Senate. 1 here was a strong faction in the convention who were in favor -of Prichard, of Elk Park, but they were unable to get their man in. Ilarshaw is a brother of Col. J.

Last week's Marion Free Lance contains the following news item in which one of Morganton's cor porations is interested: ' Considerable excitement has been occasioned in this and ad joining counties over litigation instituted by the Morganton Land and Improvement Company, in which they claim title to seventy thousand acres of land lying in the counties of McDowell, Yancey and Buncombe. Messrs. Sinclair & Hanev and T. L. C. Bird thP . j ? Manon attorneys of the company, inform us that it is not the inten tion of their clients to contest the tie of -the actual residents on their big body of land, and that the Company will give quit claim deeds to all bona fide residents for such lands as they have in pos session. From what we can gath er from the attorneys the light will be principally between several big land companies over valuable bodies of outlyingr timber lands. including nearly all' the Black Mountain chain, and that actual settlers are not to be disturbed. The attorneys for the Morganton Land and Improvement Company are confident that thev have the oldest and best title, which dal.-s back into the past century, and that they have undoubtedlv suc ceeded in locating their grant."

When evangelist W. P. Fife mounted the platform in the big iducrnacie at eleven o clock last Sunday morning to open his Mor gauiuu meetings, ne looked upon an ouuicmc mat numoerea near ly two thousand people. Behind him on an elevated platform was the choir of sixty voices that, un aer thr leadership of Mr. Arthur L,. Butt, had already sung a num- oer 01 Deautitul selections from rTof. L. O. Excel's "Triumphant oongs. un either side of him were a number of ministers who had come to heat him and to as sist with the meetings. THE FIRST MEETING. Mr file began his remarks by saying that he was so unwell that ne was scarcely able to be out at the stand, but he believed there was a great work for him to do in Morganton, and he prayed God to give him strength to accomplish it. He had heard" a great deal about Morganton, and from all he could learn it contained as many cold, dead church members as any town in tne state. He understood tnat the people here, many of them at least, considered them selves aristocrats just a little too good to associate with ordinary, everyday people ; that there were a great many old dancing frauds in the churches, who went to preaching on Sunday and to pray er meeting one day in the week and then went to dances and to card parties the balance of the time. He had heard that there were church members in Morgan- Lon wno gave progressive euchre parties, and who left their families and played billiards and pool until midnight, and that some of them took liquor on the sly, too. He had come here, he said, to cry out against sucn practices, and he ex pected to employ plain lanp-uae-e and if any of the audience couldn't stand plain talk they had better stay at home. What these Mor ganton people needed, he remark ed, was less starch and stiffness, anu decency and order," and muic icutjion, and more erace. ano more zeal in the cans nf 1 1 o J Christ. There were manv nm iessing Christians all over this country and here in Morganton. r . . . J L too, who were letting souls all around them go to hell while they were walking about with their nign collars on ano their coats iu Keep -decent." We had too much decency. What we needed was a religion that could be brought down to the level of the peole, and that would reach down into the mire of sin and pollution iu save precious souls. APPEALING TO CHURCH MEMBERS. Mr. Fife's remarks at the open ing service were addressed to the church members exclusively, and he concluded with an earnest and impressive appeal to them to hold up his hands during the meeting, and to go home not to criticise ii 1 in auu iu turow stumDiinsr 1. T 1 . . 1 - .O uiucks in tne way ot sinoers who might be benefitted by the meet ings, but to pray for an out-pouring of the grace of God, and for such a revival of religion as Mor ganton had never seen. those church members who pledged tnemselves to work and pray ior tne success ot the meet- r . . ng, were requested to stand un and many hundreds of the large audience arose, and upon a call tor those who desired the oravers of the Christians to arise, a e-ood number stood up, Mr. Fife greet- ing them with an earnest "God bless you, brother," or "God bless you, sister, as thev rose from their seats THE SERVICES. Since the beginning of the meet ings, services have been held ree uiany di (.ne lauernacie at 10.10 m. and 7.30 p. m., the exercises generally continuing from two hours to two hours and a half. ine nrst halt hour of hoth thA morning and evening: services is devoted to singing by the choir ; men, alter a prayer, Mr. Fife ad dresses the audience for about thir ty minutes, the remainder of the exercises being composed of sing- ng praying, ana snort exortations by Mr. Fife. During the latter part of the exercises rails ar made tor a renewal of olede-es on pai u ui isiiaiis, ana ior an expression on the part of the un converted of their desire to flee the wrath to come, and at snrh times Mr. Fife is kept busy grasp ing the hands of the crowds that nock to the stand in his proposition. response to On Monday night, after the con gregation had been dismissed, christians, who had made . up their minds to work for the salvation of sinners, and sinners who anxious to flee the wrath to were come were invited by Mr. file to re- main. ocvcrai uunoren remaineri I ... 1 aim me services which followed were remarkablely impressive and ou.cinu. i-uiiy one nunored peo ple signified their desire to be saved by bowing in prayer, and as they knelt ministers, and laymen, pew converts and Christians, grown old in the church, went out among them and talked and prayed with the penitents. On Tuesday and Wednesday morning part of the services con sisted of responsive Bible reading. Mr. Fife commenting briefly on each passage after it had been read. MR. FIFE'S MANNER. c-lAm T. - - T 1 1 , If there is one thing more strik- j ing than another about Mr. Fife it is his intense earnestness. A man ot nne presence, having a rich, full sympathetic voice, an easy delivery, a wondrous knowledge j 01 tne scriptures, his earnest, fervid manner enchains the at tention of his audience and im presses his words upon their minds, as few men are able to do. Earnestness and simplicity are two great elements of his oower. "God says so in the 'Bible, take Vod at ilis word this is the warp and woof of his discourses. Those who expected to see the evangelist adopt the tricks of the clown to tickle the audience have been grievously uisappomteo at Morganton, and here too there has been a marked absence of those offensive person alities in which some of Mr. Fife's critics have accused him of in dulging elsewhere. For sin he has scathing denunciation for the sinner words of kindly sympathy, and gentle pleading. Without making any attempt it oratorical display, he is often eloquent and there is frequently a pathos in his appeals to his hearers that moves hundreds to tears, a subtle mag netism in his manner that puts the vast concourse representing all grades of intellectual advance ment almost absolutely under the control of the speaker. THE RESULTS OF THE MEETING. The meetings are daily increas ing in interest, and nearly every business house in town is closed during the hours of service, the people going out en masse and the streets beino- al deserted. Up to the present thou- sands of professing Christians have publicly renewed their pledges to jurist, ana laree numbers have professed conversion. At day night's service scores of pec- pic maue a puDiic protession of conversion and at each sucreed. ing meeting the results are greater than before. The services will continue throughout- the entire week and will close on next Sun day night. The order has been the best we have ever seen in so large a body of people. extracts made at random from the sermon of an evangelist who preaches as much as Mr. Fife does are apt to create a wrone impres sion on those who do not hear the full discourse. Those that follow were jotted down at random by a Herald reporter and are not in- tended as anything like a fair rep resentation of his lectures. SOME OF MR. FIFE'S SAYINGS. When you go out to brine- sin ners to Christ you will occasional ly strike a little oip-eon-headprf I fellow who struts around and I says he is a sceptic. Thinks fo nimseit, he says, and don't be neve in God and hell. Don argue with him. Let him talk and then tell him what the Bible says about him. He thinks he is smart, and he don't like to he- called a fool." At a meeting I held not long siuie 1 noticed tnat a mimctP who was assisting sent more pen e nanas with me than anvbodv else I wondered what it was he said to them all that produced such an effect, and t inquired of one of them what it was the brother had said to him tie replied that the minister had told him if he wanted to he Christian he should 'go and shake orotner fife's hand.' This hand shaking has no efficacy in itself 11 is only intended as a nuhlir coniession ot Christ. r 1 this decency and in order business is a fraud and a snare uon t be afraid of a little demon stration. It won't hurt anybody. uu can go to a political conven ..un aim li y out ana tnrow up l--. - r .... . r jrum nils ior your political tavor- tes, and you are not ashamed of it. Why can you not cry out at the name of the Lord Tesus Christ wno died on Calvalry to save you from death and hell. If the grace of God is in you it will shine out, and you can't help it from shining. wu t ucgieci to uaik to a sin ner about his soul's salvation be cause you think he is a hard case and beyond hope. I traveled over the State of North Carolina for twelve years, and met every day with ministers and laymen who protessed Christianity, and as God a injf wmicss, in an tnose years only one man only one man put his hand on my shoulder and ask ed me about my soul." tjood resolutions to lead a bet ter lite wont save anvbodv. Yon must plant yourself firmly on the suuu rock, unnst Jesus, and the better life will follow. No need to iear about that. Some sinners are alwavs savino- i 1 j i-i . . 10 nicy woum like to be Christians, but there are so many things to give up. c-ood savs nothino- auum givmg-up, Dut tne iew Tes tament is full of the word 'receive.'

A week or two alter I was converted l was thrown with four of the bovs m v oin triennc rn : i j Udlll. CIIIU on tney said, 'Give us the latest story Bill.' And then I silently asked joo ior strength, and I told the boys a new story. I told them the story ot the man, Christ Jesus now ne nad died to save me and to save tnem, and how he had pardoned my sins, and how he would pardon their sins if thev came in faith to him, and there, as th train speed on in the darkness, we knelt and prayed and wept to gether, and, blessed be God, two of those souls were converted to Christ." The reason why so manv neo- pic uu not love tne Bible more and understand it better is because tney do not study it. They skim over a chapter sleepily at nieht auu men suae into bed and Foro-et in luuut u, ana men thank God they are not like other men. God grant that the time may come when there will be no more hio- pulpit Bibles, and unused family cibles, but when everv man will have his own Bihle with v, " wuv precious , promises of Jesus all marked in it, and carry it with mm wherever he goes." ne oiiuicr wno iears Mr mn't hold out should first get something lu 10. wnen Christ takes you by the hand you will have no fears about holding out." "Some people are Christians, or think they are, until they get away from home ; but the first time they get to the city they go to Niblo's Garden to see the sights and go to the barroom for a drink, and go the ball, and the card table and the circus because iney are away from home where their neighbors can't see them.
