Now, hundred and tw there foot lots in a instead of it costing the owner of | decei each forty-foot lot $200, as errone- ously stated in the address, it will you will see is but a fraction over $25 for each lot owner to pay. Quite a difference, and by no means an amount sufficient to oppress any man or to endanger/the loss of his prop erty. The of paying for sewers is prescribed by the city char- manner ter and cannot be changed, except by an act of the legislature, aud the or- dinance is in conformity with said f and po other way can be adopted, ppt that it may de done by general taxation, which does not eem equitable, as the outskirts of the city would then be compelled to pay an wadue tax for the immediate benefit of the ce. portion of the m city. There is nothi giu the ortinance which compels any ome to tap these sewers, which he my do, however, at any time and at his own pleasure, and fit up his preinises aa cheaply or expensively as bé may desire. Coniparatively, there are very few colored people residing within this district, and why the addressghyu!\t be directed to the colored people’ only be accounted for on the hypoth- esis that they could be easily deceived and made to feel discontent. The colored people are more intel- ligeut than the gentleme an suppose, and will investigate for themselves, and can no longer be influenced by reckless misrepresentation. Sewer- age is s necessity, the plan adopted is a good one, great care has been taken to guard and protect the inter. est of every citizen, and the work should not and must not stop. AT THE TENT, The Services Continue to Grow in Interest. Another Powerful Sermon by Dr. Hamner Last Night. The gospel meetings at the tent, under the direction of Dr. Hamner, of Memphis, continue to grew in in- terest, The attendance last night as very large, notwithstanding the extreme heat. Many rose to signify a desire to lead a Christian life and five conversions were announced, making a total of twenty-one thus far since the meetings commenced, Another powerfnl sermon from Dr. Hamner moved the congregation as as such bodies are seldom moved. The text chosen was: ‘Ic is ap- pointed unto man once to di od after deatu the judgment.” The following synopsis of the sermon is kindly furnished us: Life is more solemn than death. We face the problem of life with an awful sense of its tremendous re- sponsibilities. My accountability to God for the proper use of time and talent stirs my soul to itsdepths. We pass this way but once, and can never repass to correct our mistakes, It behooves us to get the best out of our opportunities and to give the world the noblest possible being and doing Birth—Choice—Death—J udgment— Eternity—are the lines in which our lives are laid off tous. God has given to every man a certain number of days as his portion of time to be used in preparation for heaven. In- dividual rashness, carelessness and crime may cut short his alotted time, The general disorder of our world, caused by the corporate sin of man, may cut it short, However that may be, the time death must come. We cross the lines of death in order. We came into being on the day of our birth and then lived in helpless innocence to the day of ‘Choice.’ Had we fallen between those lines the tender mercies of Christ would b saved us. That day of ‘Choice,’’ when vue can intelligently look upon right snd wrong, and choose for himself which way he will go througn life, is the most solemn and fraught with greater consequences than any other day. It is the day when one declares allegience to the inborn first Adam, or rejecting him, surrenders to the iving second Adam, Jesus Christ, This day marks the begin- uing of destiny, Many of you have tal of | coming of that awful day. But what! is ‘*Death’’ compared to that terrible day of judgment. God has appoint- ed that day aud summoned all men to, it. mons. We shall all appear before the judgement bar of God. You ma men and pass-the bar of pubs lic opinion. You may stifle your own conscience and pass its awful judgment, but you must stand be- discovered — to the flerce gaze of the universe! of intelligences, Your secret infidel-| ity to your wife must come to light, and you must look into her fair face as she traves every line of it in that blazing light. You don’t live with reference to that day. If warned of its coming tomorrow, how different would be our today} Hushand,would you not go now ahd copfess your wrongdoing to her against whom you have sinned? Parents would rec- tify unguarded words to their chil- dren. Men and women would be astir rectifying their wrongdoing. 1 notify you that the awful day is ap- proaching, and this may be your last to get ready. My friend, I beg you to get ready for the judgment. The tired servant of Tom Paine who had faithfully attended the dyit infidel, asked him one day for a few moments’ recess to rest. The God- less man, with the fires of hell flash- ing from his eyes and hate in his heart, thrust out his scrawny finger and screamed: ‘') I have no fest, nor shall you have!"’ Compare that awful day to that grand day when the soul of Bishop Latimer leaped from the stake to the highest foul methods heaven. He and Mr. Ridley were burning at the same stake. The fumes of the barning bodies were risiug with the roaring flames. He said: ‘Cheer up, Brother Ridley, for you and I will kindle such a fi in old England today as will never cease to light men to God.’ Young man, how wide the chasm that must forever yawn between the destinies of these two men} Are you re: are you ready for the judgment day? The effectof the sermon was almost elcctrical. Nearly every person in the audience rose on invitation to those who intended to lead better lives, Services daily at 10 a, m, and at fand 8 m., to which all ate dially invited. cor- We must answer the “al jarrow Escap jays lineman in the flucah ¥ Tipy of the noon late, while connecting a wire t a condenser.
