MAN HAD GOOD. SIZED AUDIENCE AT COURT HOUSE LAST NIGHT . Last evenings' lecture at the Court House, created considerable interest. T. H. Thornton, of New York City.is a speaker of acknowledged ability and well versed in-the Scriptures. He re quested his hearers to jot down the various texts used,- to that they could consider them more careful! ' in leis ure moments. ' In summing up the speaker said: ''Many are drifting rapidly, into in fidelity under t;he modern designations of - Higher Criticism and Evolution. Gjup- fathers during the Dark Ages got away from the Bible by supposing in- 'apostolic succession.' Gradually the ' Creeds, supposed to agree with tl e Bible, usurped -the place of the Bible. Now having outgrown these Creeds,,, in rejecting thgm many are rejecting the Bible also. This is a mis take. The Bible is the most wonder ful book in the world when allowed to interpret itseli. It jurnishes the .only rallying ground for human brother hood and Christian brotherhood.. - The world otherwise is; facing anarchy. A lost religion will soon m;an a lost God1, a lost-future hope And a selfish strile for -the present life, only. - The", hell torture theory is" nauseating ' people. They- are rejecting "the Bible because tney erroneously think that it teaches it. .. - -"Let us not mourn 'unduly our er rors of the past, but "at once, now, get right - with God and His Book!

Wreckers engaged in saving freight on the sunken ship, have succeeded in getting several hun dred bales of cotton out of her freight hole. This cotton when released from the ship, shot up to the surface of the wa ter and was secured by wreckers and placed on a barge. Marine men be lieve bodies held in the ship will also come to the surface when released. The government will spend $2,000 to destroy the Monroe. Uncle Sam is careful about removing obstructions that might prove a meance to ships at sea. He does not stop at expense, and is not satisfied until every vestige of a wreck, that is a menace to naviga tionhas been r -'moved. Eighteen hun dreds pou ik's of explosives will be used to destroy the ship. The Onondaga will use thirty mines loaded with explosives to destroy the Monroe. Each mine will contain sixty pounds of gun cotton and other explo res. A crew under the command of Lieu tenant I.. R. Reinb irg of the OnOn--;laga will go oi.t in a sm 'II boat to the spot' where the Monroe went down. With the assistance of a diver, thev wil place these mines on the ship and return to the Onondaga. The mines on the Monroe will be ex ploded by electricity from the Onon daga, which will lay to some dist ance from the sunken ship. It will probably require three days to blow- up the sunken steamer. Only one or too mines will be exploded at ' a lime. After each explosion, the Onondaga will cruise around in the vicinilv of the sunken steamer in search of bodies. If any are found they will be picked up and hjld until the tug from Old Dominion Steamship Company ar rives to bring them to Norfolk. . -v GRAY WIGS NEXT; ALSO RUF.: FLES FOR THE MEN ,; New York, March 23.
