LARGELY ATTENDED
IN SPITE OF RAIN
PEOPLE HEAR EVANGELIST
THOUGH RAIN FELL FAST
FOR AWHILE.
ON "BACKSLIDING"
Thu Subject Wa? Handled Well
and Hearers Went Home
With Deep Impression.
Although thn weather was very un
favorable last evening, a large crowl
went out to hear Rev. Mcl^ndon. His
subject was on "Backsliding." and In
substance the sermon was BB follows:
If even I am at a losa to know what
subject to Bettie on for my sermon. I
am glad to take a good text applying
to backsliders, because I know that
it will appeal to the majority of roy
congregation. I pray a good deal,
cook my sonnons well on my knees
and study hard to choose the message
that I am to deliver. Some people
look on backsliding as an insignificant
*h<ng. but the Bible tells you and I
t - i 1 you that it ls a serious offense
. gainst God. I regret to preach a ser
mon along these lines, but as long as j
the facts sro as I have related them
I can not be s'lent. I am not a preach
er of expediency. There is not an ex
pedient hair in my head. I am goinc
to preach thc truth as I see it in the
Bible and And it in my experience.
"God speaks much of the sin of
backsliding. There are several kinds
of backsliders. There are those that
respond to every invitation and for a
time live as a Christian should, then
when th- -evival ls over, and the rou
tine of ?very day life begins, they
gradually slip back into their former
ways. And you know it often happens
that thoso wbo are the first to come
out and take a vow and lead a Chris
tian life, are the first to deny it after
wards. I often feel like calling them
tho g-.-ound hog ChristanB. When
spring comes, tho ground hog awakens
from his winter sleep and emerges
into the warm sunlight and lives an
active life until the storms of winter
somes again, then he crawls into his
winter home of hibernation, and falls
Into a sleep of months. Oh it is easy
to think of things divine when the
revival ls on. There ls inspiration
and enthusiasm on every side. These
ground-hog people have family pray
ers and go to Sunday Behool and at
tend prayer meeting, but when the
revival is over they crawl Into their
holes of hibernation and fall into a
deep sleep. I have sometimes thought
that it 'might bo a God-send if the
community could bc swept by a cy
clone after a great revival and wipe
them all into glory,
j "I recall the story of the Irishman
who '-ont to the priest to confess a
murder. The good father confessor
was shocked and ho asked Pat to ex
plain. 'Well* says Pat, 'I was in a
boat with a fellow and we began to
discuss religion. Wasn't long before
we left the dis- off. I asked him it
he did not believe in the Holy Catholic
church and he said no. I took him
and held him under tbe water for
some time, then I took him out and
asked him if he believed in tho holy
Catholic -church, and he said no. ?So
I held him unrV>r the water again for
a long time. When I lifted him out he
was sputtering and blue in the face.
Now does ye believe in the Holy Cath
olic church, and he said yes. Then,
your reverence, I ducked him again,
and I held bim under C?e water for a
still longer time until bo was dead.'
" 'What in the worin did you mean
by that. Pat?' 'Well, father, I knew
the man and wanted to make sure that
he would die In the faith.
"I would rather a blood-clot would
form on my brain tonight or my lungs
congest or appoplexy knock me over
than to be untrue to God and go back
Jato a life of sin. Yes, lt would be
better to lose father and mother and
I wife and children and everybody and
everything that ls near and dear lu
this world than to lose Jesus Christ
and backslide and go to tho devil.
"Read the Pentateuce. Sec how
many times you fose patience witli
those old Israelites. God was always
doing something -for them. He sent
a deliverer to lead them out ot bond
age. A pillar of fire led them by
night and a cloud by day. He drowned
their enemies and fed them on mana.
Their garments never wore out and
they had Cod's word tb/t they would
reach the promised land, but they
were never satisfied. They growled.

back yonder In Egypt? Think or the
good things we bad down there. Mel
one, onions and fishes.' We old Meth
odists. Presbyterians and Baptists are
not satisfied with what God has given
us.
"Lota of people mean business when
they start out. but they do not cut all
the shore linea. They fall to cut loose
from some predominating, enslaving,
blackening, sickening sin that binds
and blinds and grinds and damns and
lt draws then* back. They remind me
of the hoy who was asked if he had
been converted. He thought the ques
tioner had said vaccinated, and he re
plied that he had but It did not take.

Admiral Mayo Vindicated.
(News -and Courier.)
When Rear Admiral Mayo, in com
mand of an? American squadron lying
f?t Tampico, sent a demand to the
Huerta commander at Chat port that
the American flag be saluted as an
apology for an offence committed by
soldiers ot Huerta, many held that his
act committed the United States gov
ernment irrevocably to t"ie drastic pol
icy which it thea proceeded to carry
out against tho Mexican dictator.
There was. at the time and subse
quently, some talk of displeasure at
Washington towards Mayo. It waa
hinted that lt was felt in adminis
tration circler, that thc American naval
commander had none too far, had ex
ceeded tho spirit of his instructions,
and had needlessly placed the admin
istration in an ?awkward predicament
whero it was forced to cloose between
active hostilities against Huerta and
repudiation of Mayo's act with re
sultant demoralization of the navy's
morals.
If tlirre wac ever any truth In theoe
rumors-and probably they were
groundless-it ls clear that Mayo hMS
bec,? vindicated pw. the passage , o/
time. Ile han been signally honored
by being selected as the first of three
vice admirals vrto will raise their
pennants, on their respective flagships
following the passage of an act ot
emigres.! reviving thiB naval grade.
There were* not lacking some who
blamed Mayo In severe terms for what
lie did at Tampico. Now that the gov
ernment 'IDS given evidence nf H3 con
fidence in him and its appreciation
of his capacity, it ls worth wide re
calling thedo strictures only In order
to note how completely they have
been refuted. HIB appointment to the
grade of vice admiral should dispose
once and for all of the report that,
becauso of lils act at Tampico. Mayo
is looked upon by his superiors as a
man whose judgment is not to be
trusted.
Claims Aglnst tbe County.
All claims against the county must
be flied with the clerk of the county
commissioners on or by tho 1st d?? of
each month in order, that said cl., an s
may receive attention at the riext
board meetings. Claims not so flied
will bo laid aside for thirty days.
