GREENEVILLE. Missing the Grace of God the Subject of Rev, Charles H. Ricketts at Con- gregational Church Sunday Morning —Other Notes of the Village. At the Greeneville Congregational| church Sunday morning Rev. Charles H. Ricketts delivered a schoiarly and | interesting sermon on Missing the Grace of Ged. The text was: Lookinz | dil:gently lest any man fail of the grace | of God. Hebrows 12:15. The speaker said in part: It is one of the great pathetic facts| of all Christian history as far as we can see that men by thelr deliberate | sinfulness fail of the grace of God. Bvery great promise of God is condi- tional. " Christ died on the cross that grace might become the common heri- tage of mankind. But mankind must do something before it can become a personal possession. Even free grace will_not force itselt upon unwilling hearts. It is the man who thinks| enough of the grace of God to stretch | forth his hands after it who gets it. Tt is Just the same in grace as it is in the common things of lite. Look about you and you will find that the men and women who are the greatest suc- cesses in their various trades and pro- fessions are those who have stretched | forth their hands with the greatest en- | ergy and wisdom. We miss the grace | of God when we let it slip by us| through lack of emergy. St. Paul in| wiiting the passage “Looking diligently | Jest any man fail of the grace of God™ meant by the word fafl “coming short of” And that testing question that we Christians need to apply to ourselves as well as to the unbellever is Are you, m 1, falling short of the grace of| God, | ‘What St. Paul 1s seeking to do by| fhis passage is to hold out a warning or a_caution lest we fall of the grace | of God. This caution implies three| things: Impertance, acquirableness and danger. Importance of Grace. Tt ought not to require any elaborate argument to show that the grace of | God working in and through our hearts | 18 of supreme importance. I the world were divided into two parts, putting all the professing Christlans on one side and all the non-professing and non- practicing people on the other, a sin- gl glance would be quite enough to satisfy one which of the two s wor- thier, If we look into a good man's| heart we shall find that his aspirations Jead him to desire to be truly obedient to the will of God. Now the principle to true obedience lles In the grace which he offers freely to every man. ‘Therefore its supreme mportance.

By “locking aili | gently,” as St. Paul says, grace may be acquired. Would it be reasonable for the Bible to command impossible things. Is it not one great merit of the Bible—parhaps the greatest merit—that | it always commands us to do not only what we ought to do but what we can do by putting forth a reasonable | amount of exertlon® Danger of Shortcomling. Why 4id St. Paul express himself with such earnestness unless it was very possible that we should come <hort of grace? Let him that thinketh e standath take hee lest he fall. It mey be that there has been a avonder- ful reformation in your character and eonduct, a radical change of heart, but unless you are watchful and exercles the greatest care you may come short of the grace of God. Let us join in a prayer of David Hold up my goings In thy paths, that my footsteps slip not. Notes. Arthur P.

Rev. Dr. V. A. Cristobel 1s to speak on Messina, he having been pastor of Waldenisan church there for | Moses, the servant of the Lord. died there in the land of Moab, according Dr. West spoke as follows: On Good Friday, April 14, 1865, there was no man on this planet so loved as Abraham Lincoln, no one who had he | done so much for the nation and for he | the world, no m&n who seemed to have d- !in his hands such reins of power for | the solution and the performance of the tasks before him, and nome <o al | trusted by the people as Mr, Lincoln. by | Could a vote that morning have been > | taken of the life most needed to be { conserved, there would have been an overwhelming majority for Mr. Lincoln. There was every reason for him to live, none for him.to die. Yet, com- ing from the very manner of his death there are moral effects that help to explain the situation. The first moral effect from the as- s | sassination of Mf. Lincoln was that 43| bis death was the sudden revelation in|of the venom and enormous evil of slavery and secession. The light of that pistol was a lightning flash which laid bare the monstrous spirit of slav- ery, and where there had been mil- lions to apologize for it, they were now brought to repudiate it. WIth proph- etle insight Jefferson Davis said that the death of Mr. Lincoln was one of the two severest blows ever struck the south, The second effect was the quenching of the spirit of revenge and the draw- ing togther of the north and south. The eloquence of Mr, Lincoln dead was greater than of Mr. Lincoln dead was When men looked at his dead lips, they seemed to say “Charity towards all, malice toward none,” with a more final authority than ever before. One can hardly tell how it came, but it seemed that the rain of tears of & nation’s sor- row had quenched the fires of a ma- tion's hate, and there was no power by which they could be rekindled. Third, the assassination of Lincoln made in an Instant this emacipator of a race thelr hero-saint for all ages. y nd T 111 of st | or | to ly a had stood upon the steps of the cap- itol, like a high priest of the people; and confessed the sin of the nation in those immortal words: “Fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray that this | mighty scourge of war my speedily pass away; but if God will that it con- tinue, that the wealth piled up by bondmen by 250 years of unrequited toil be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid for by another drawn With the sword, as was said 3,000 years ago, o it stlll must be said that the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous al- togther” Then, having confessed the sin, he lald himself a sacrifice upon the altar of the people’s need. Small won- der that they must adore him! He thus completed his work of sac- rifice by his sacrificial death. A sac- rificial life s the highest attainable by man on this earth, and the only cli- max of such a4*e, the only one not an anti-climax is a sacrificial death. Fifth, in the moral effects resulting | from the assassination of the president was that the nation was revitalized by the blood of Mr. Lincoln. It was$ a way of giving hifseif*totally to the na- tion which he could not do in any oth- er way. Mr. Lincoln did not die out of the nation, he died into it. When he fell, the iron that was in him entered of | of le. - b er 1y oc ge in the ear of Olmighty God that this nation should not perish from the earth. Lastly, this death was the coronation of Mr. Lincoln by the hand of Al- mighty God before the eyes of the na- tion, of the world, and the ‘ages. is How God can condense eternity into al | an instant! How out of the miserable - | vileness of a most detestable crime he can_express his glory! When that bul- - | let left the pistol it was an instrument of hell, but God touched it as it passed, and when it struck the president it was a messenger :of heaven. When it left the pistol, it spoke the hiss of all the hatred of the rebellion, but_when it touched the flesh of Mr. Lincoln it was the lip of God, kissing him into life, Thus can God make the wrath of man | to praise dim. is ip to te e at SEDGWICK CORPS, NO. 16.

Ex- tra- cars were run on several trips to odate the crowds, On Saturday afternoon Frank H. Al- len returned from the south, having been summoned home by news of the fire and the death of his brother-in- law, John B. Warner. His safe, which had been taken out Friday, was scorch- ed, but ir a fair stete of preservation, much better than none. He carrled an insurance on his property, but there were many valuable belongings which were lost, and they were as valuable as much {hat was in his safe. His'in- surance, however, does nmot cover his Joss, he states, as the property he had there represents the accumulations of thirty years. Considering what it had gone through, he thought it was for- tunate to get what he did from his safe. Saturday morning the safe of John N. Mascott was taken from the ruins, and it was found that' the contents were all right. The combination work- ed and there was no trouble opening it. The safe was not badly damaged, ond will prcbably be in fit condition for further use. There were several hundred dollars In money, effects ana bankbooks in the safe.

There are several other safes which are in the ruins, one being visible at the front, under a quantity of brick, which can be easily haken out when desired. | The large Reid & Hughes safe, which was taken from the rear of the ruins, 1s on exhibition in what used to be the door to the millinery rooms of the By ton Store. Clearing Up Ruin: The ‘work of clearing up the ruins is going along as fast as possible, al- though the work requires much time. The debris Is being taken to the dump. A derrick is to be put on the lot to e pedite the work. In the Chelsea bank building the front plate glass windows have been boarded in and a chute built from the second story. The work of clearing that up and putting on a temporary cover is under way. A check for $50 was sent by J. B.
