GREEK ARMY MAY CREATE NEW REPUBLIC United States Dollar Doubles in Value on Bourse) City Quiet But Troops on Duty. ATHENS,, Nov. 16 There are ru mors that it is possible the Greek army, which is supposed to b loyal to former Premier Venizelos, may create .the re public Yf Smyrna, in Asia Minor. The present regency of Admiral Coun- dourotis has been recognised by the op position. fJt is possible the cabinet' se lected by the leaders of the dominant party in Greece irill hold office tem porarily until a plebiscite la 'held at which the people will vote upon the re turn of former King Constantino. It is also believed that the opposition will make efforts to determine the views of the outside world relative to the results of the election. There was a panic on the Bourse when it became certain that the Veniaelist gov ernment had been defeated, the United States dollar doubling 1 in value.' The city is quiet, and the parliament house is occupied by troops. 'SAY DEFEAT SHOWED ATTITUDE OF GREEK PEOPLE ROME, Nov. 16 Princes Andreas and Christophoros, brothers of former King Constantino of Greece, who are in this city, learned with great satisfaction of tiie defeat of Premier Venizelos in elect ions held last Sunday. They de clared the result was a victory for King Constantino or his eon, Prince George, Duke of Sparta. They added the verdict registered at the polls was sufficient to slmw the attitude of the Greek people toward their sovereign. UNCERTAINTY CONTINUES. LONDON, Nov. .17.-- lout iiiuing un certainty in the election growing out of the Greek elections was reported by Kiuler's corre i omlcnce in Mhcns in a i;stoc- fliP,i Tuesday and r cvived early today. " iTeniier Venizelos h is submitted his resignation," reads the dispatch, "but the r'gent declines to reply util the final result of the vol in j n the army is known. The correspondent was received by M. VeuueA s, who was uir'st reticent, but the correspondent ffathrfred the im pression that there was still a possibility of Ve.niztdos r Gaining powi;i." The n essnge, however, quot "reli able sou-ces" to tha effect that M, Veni zelos does not believe the result oi the voting at the front will be so .overwhelm ing in his favor ai to lead him to with draw his resignatjm. At the best, it would, appear, he wjuld only have a small majority, with ' Jrhich h would not be eontent. HARDING- LEFT BROWNSVTTJE TODAY FOR NEW ORLEANS BROWNSVILLE,. Tex., Nov. 17.

DESPITE INCLEMENT WEATHER LAST NIGHT . . ... - ' ETn eliat' Preacbfed Forceful Sermon After Day ef Rest inclement . Weather Serves to Decrease Attendance But not the Enthusiasm or the Earnestness of the Evangelist Services Today at 3 P. M. and 7:30 P. M. After. ' noon Services Today, Tomcrtoyr and Friday. Despite the inclemency of the weather the main auditorium of the Ffrlt Pres byterian, church was filled and a large number waa in the gallery to herfr Gypsy Smith, Jr., Tuesday night. After a night and two days 'of rest Mr. Bmith was in fine physical form and the dSr pressing weather had no effect on his Spirit. The music and singing under the direction of Miss Abernethy and Mr. Allen was exceptionally good. The open ing prayer "of the service was offered by Rev. A. S. Anderson, of Lowell. Mr. Smith read for the evening scripture les son the fifth chapter of the Gospel of St. Matk. Dr. J. H. Hcnderlite empha sised tne importance of the afternoon services and announced that school chil drenawould be welcome even if a little lnte. He also paid tribute to Mr. Allen and Bis splendid choir for their faithful noss and the excellence of the singing during too meeting. After singing "Awake, My Soul," Mr. Smith spoke as follows: Mr. Smith took his subject from the fifth chapter of the Gospel according to St. Mark the Story of a man possessed with devils, the story of a woman who had suffered with a shame-faced disease for years, and a little girl that was dead. iliis chapter has well been styled tha chapter of incurables; and some people naive gotten so far in their reading and thinking that they think there is no such thing as a penpnal devil. When I meet anybody who, : ikes a statement to that effect, 1 always ask them what makes them so sure, and where do they get their knowledge from. And then I ask them, if there is bo devil, where does all the devilishness come from, because you can't travel far without finding a good Heal that is devilish. I wish I had the time to give you a life size photograph of this fellow who waa possessed with devils. There were thousands in his early years who haf tried to tame him, and 1 suppose most of the doctors had been called into consulta tion, too, but they were unable to do anything for him. He was separated from his family and from his lovel ones, completely isolated from all that a man holds dear. His dwelling place was the tombs ; his occupat!6n was cutting him self jvith stones; his clothes were nothing but chains; and his language nothing but a cry. That is the way the devil always works, for, like God in this ope rlspeet, he is no respector of persons, and would just as soon wreck your life as the life )f the worst man in your city. You can trace his way by the blood pools, and by the separated homes, and by the broken hearts, and by the prodigals and wrecks on the shores of time. He is devil enough to take your baby from your breast and hurl it over the craggy rocks of despair, and leave it bleeding, doomed and damned. He would like to turn Gastonia into an universal hell, and then, putting his foot on the nock of your city, he would chuckle like the fiend lie is over the havoc he had wrought. .But, after an interview between this poor man and the Son of God, the devils are cast out, and he gres Back to li is wife and children a changed man. Christ is still Lord over devils. I don't care what the thing is in yojjr life, what the devil is that has haunted you, robbing you of your manhood and wo manhood, there is complete victory and restored hours in the power of Jesus Christ. Now take this case for a moment. This woman' who had suffered with this disease and probably tried every doctor in 'her country or state, for the biblical record tells us that she had tried all the doctors and had spent all she had, and instead of getting better, had grown worse. I have almost imagined I could see her that morning putting on her bonnet and cloak, and her daughter saying to her, "What's the use, mother t You have tried every thing, and this new healer cannot help you any more than any of the others." But her mother said, "While there ia life there is hope, and I am not going to give up." And she pressed her way through the crowd and touched the gar. ment of Jesus Christ, and in a moment Christ proved Himself Lord over disease. But let me say that it ia not the evsav gejiat-that you need, or a thousand like ird, or these services, or the beautiful ia- fluences that come from and withr these meetings. We cant diagnose your eaie, our fingers are not long enough US fit to the. root of the mischief; we can only aggravate, but Christ has never been baffled. He can heal every case, for He is sMll Lord over disease. Yon know people will tell you there is hope for the bi??est devil in te eonntry, and eertain ly if we have a disease there is hope! as long as there is life. But what are we goingto do with this vther ease this little girl who was deadf Well, Jthe Son of. God has never been baffled. He gees into the mom and takes hold of the little girl by the hand, sad then looks away oht into .fw anirihial j world, aa . tbenrfc He wonld Vn4 that little gitt 'a spirit and His eye .that ls the. light f the world singles tht spirit out and says, "Come herei dear, I want you." "And then He says to the girl, "Arise." And she that had been dead sat up, and He gave her to her mother and commanded that' something should be given her to eat. " And He proved Himself Lord over death. Lord over devils, Lord over disease, and Lord over death there you have the all conquering Christ, and there is in this gospel enough to save the whole world. If I were called into King George's pres ence, I could read him the story of King David. If Queen Mary should grant me an interview. I could read her the story of Queen Esther. I could gather the Reads of the British Navy together, and read them the story of Christ quelling the tempest on the sea. I could gather the heads of the British army together, and ead them the story of Cornelius, the sol dier. I could gather the lawyers togeth er, and read them the story of Paul, who was a lawyer of no mean note. I could gather the women of business together, and read them the story of Lydia, the sel er of fine purple, the first woman convert in.Asia. I could gather the boys togeth er who have gone wrong, and read them the story of the Prodigal son, and the girls who have. made a misstep, and read them the story of Mary Magdalene. And tf you say i have not touched your case yet, I will turn to the story of Calvary Hill, and read the story of the thief on the cross, who, in his last hour, accepted Christ, and was received by Him. This is A wonderful gospel, and it can suit all classes, all"olors, and all needs, for Christ is still Lord over devils, Lord over disease, and -Lord over death.
