D. Th Moody and his dialect songster, Sankey, are conducting a religious revival on a large New York city. Rey. quoted as saying : “If there is anything I want to im- press upon you, {tis the importance of teaching the word of Ged. If I have had any success in attempting to carry God's word to my fellow beings, it is because I believe in it— not in some particular part of it, but from cover to cover—and in view of the recent controversies on this very subject 1 will say that any minister who doubta the Bible or any single portion of it, and 60 preaches in pub- lie had better get right out of the pulpit, for he has no basiness there. He is doing the devil's work even better than the devil is doing it him- self Rev. Moody also said of the pub- n general: There is too much head religion. The world is cursed with human re. ligion. God's religion ia in the heart; man’s in the head. Where's youre “There's something even better than silver or gold, The West wants silver, the East wants gold. God wants the heart.’” Some of the New York papers do not seem to think that Rev. Moody practices what he preaches, and the following caustic eriticism appeared in one of the leading papers a few days ago: “D. L. Moody, as be is fond of calling himself, and his side-partner, Sankey, have been hired to start an- other religious revival in this city and are hard at it by night and day. Sixty clergymen have pledged them- selves to pay the expenses, calcula- lating that Moody and Sankey will act as recruiting officers aod that the churches will get the benefit of the conversions. Moody, _ therefore, 1 © yreaches for all the denominations. He says that he has no theology, but e accepts the wholé sible, from cov- as literally true. He whale that swallowed Jonah; he insists that the sun, and moon did stand still at the bidding of Joshua so that a few more Amor- believes er to cover, swallows the tes might be massacred ; he ated men have agreed to consider as Oriental poetry or —_ metaphor. He declares that all he wants is “the old religion ;* hat ‘is good — enough’? im. Imust remind Mr. Mog that the chief tenet of “the o'd r igion’? is not belief in miracles; it is mplicit obedience to the command ‘Sell all thou hast and give to the This is what Christ told the {young man who had kept all the ‘ommandments from — childhood Giving to the poor is not writing sfora Philadelphia woman's or music for the ‘Christian Herald ;"’ it is not speaking and sing- ng in expensive halls; it is not be- getting pap ng paid so much @ week for 1p revivals, If the Scriptures in which Mr. Moody believes, from cover to cover, are especially em- phatic about any one thing it is that tion of society, and the feverish and temporary excitements of the Moody aud Sankey revivals do more harm than good to the churches,’?

His jast venture, and by the way bis first venture for many moons, was made jast Sunday, and the way it prvalted suiliced to convince him thav a cog was loose somewhere in his moral ma- chine. Arrayed in his best attire, he crept tothe church door, with a rather guilty, hang-dog look, probably the result of past reminiscences, on his face, Hoping to get in without aj- tracting attention, he gently pushed it open, but lo! and behold, the electric lights with one accord went out the instant he intruded his face. He fled in confusion and alarm, and now says he's sure that next time the building would fall upon him, so he will hereafter eschew the shrine, oe .

THANKSGIVING SERVICE, Prisoners at the Branch Pen- itentiary Keturn Thanks. Paducah’s Best Chris- tian People. Thanksgiving services were con- ducted in the chapel of the Ken- tucky branch peniter iary at Edd: ville on last Thursday, Nov. 1896, To the outside world strange that prisoners should return thanks, but, indeed, we feel that we have much to be thankful for. We thank God that 6. is no better. a Christian; but be- these grim ey walls ns that are true as st le years I have stood close by es, and the crucials tests of mn life have uot once cast the ntest shadow about their faithful Truly are they “proven by selves writer hind Christ For Ic their s prise that ty not it are The prison chapel had been taste- fully decorated in anticipation of the Thanksgiving services.. Evergreens hung in nice designs from all parts of | the room. Beautiful mottoes were displayed, extending a hearty welcome to the visiting Christians. Just in and above the altar was suspendew a] beautiful monogram, in the national | colors, containing the letters C. E., | embiematic of the ung People’s Soviety of Christian Endeavor.’’ L- lustrated scriptural lessons adorned | the walls, and the American tlag was | to be seen in profusion. At 9:30 o'clock a, m. a delegation ot Christian people arrived from Pe ducah, among whom were the fol- lowing ladies and gentlemen: The Misses Mary and Carrie Flournoy, Miss Dow Husbands, and Messrs. T. M. Brunson and W. B, Mather. At 11 a, m. the following delegation arrived from Hopkinsville: Misses Jennie Glass and Albertine Wallis, and Messrs. Fred’k A. Wallis and Joseph Armstead. Princeton was represented by the Rev, W.S. Payne Many of theChristian people of Eddy ville were present, including the Rev. L, W. Browder and wife. | On their arrival at the prison chapel the visiting delegations were heartily invited by Miss Marie Boyd, it may seem|a our lot is no} e ree than it is, and fault only our- |‘ The jevery secon ——— Thee.”’ The result was pathetic in the extreme. So stole down the cheeks of hardened sinners that resemb)ed great drops of rain—bat it Waen't rain Seng by the visiting Christians: [Al avst Persuaded.”’ At the te quest of Mr. Fred’k A. Wallis, @ number of pritoners made short talks, many pledging themselves to a Chrie- tian life. Mr. Joseph Armsted, of Hopkinsville, made a beautiful talk on ‘‘Perseverence."’ Mr. W. B. Mather, of Paducah, led in a prayer | which was exceedinly earnest. The congregation joined in singing the old hymo, ‘Praise God from whom all blessings flow,’ and the benediction was pronounved by Rev. W. 8. Payne, of Princeton. It was not a Day of Pentecost, but it was a day that will long be remem- bered by the inmates of this institu. tion, for “when we were sick you visited us, when we were in prison you came unto us.’ Timotny Harserp, COLORED DEPARTMENT.

Monster Deep-sea Dwellers That Possess Extraordinary Powers. “Do I belicve in sea serpents?” re peated Bugene G, Blackford, formerly state fish commissioner, “I certainly do, Of course, I don't believe in all the details of all sea serpents, as seen at the summer hotels, I do believe there are huge marine monsters which appear like serpents, and cause these tales about sea serpents to be told.” “Tiow is it that none of these has ever been captured “Their enormeons slae and swiftness their extraordinary powers, and the fact that they are shy and seldom ap ats pear.” “Why are not thelr bodies casi ashore?” “They are deep-sea dweld probably ers. The bodies of the deep-sea fish &re not cast ashore, except on rare and abnormal eocasions. For instance, 1 years ago about 1,000,000 deep-sea fish were found floating dead on the surface ot the ocean, It was supposed that @ submarine explosion had killed them Deep-sea fish canrot get to the surface under ordinary conditions, or, it they do, they cannot get down again. “Wouldn't that keep the sea serpent up if he once came up?” “Not necessarily. He may be con amend on tidiieoanh plan. I think the sea serpent ts a eurvival of the great reptiles of the Plestosaurus spe cles, I¥ ts quite possible that, though @ dweller of the deep, he may be able to come to the surface of the sea and down again at his pleawure.”"—N, ¥ Imes, Dido't Want Bid.
