The Revival Meetings.
The Seventh "Week Begins
with Interest UnabatedNames
being Daily Entered
on the Converts' Register
of the Christian Crusa- j
ders.
Reported for The News.
At tho expiration of six weeks
and two days, during which time
God's S| iiit has been most won-:
derliilly poured out upon the
people of Lancaster and the surrounding
country, it is very evi
dent to all who will be convin ,
ced, that the interest in the
special revival effort, which is
now in progrsss, has not yet
abated. This fact has bet n
plainly demonstrated during the
past week, when, notwithing the
inclemency of the weather, the
iruui i?i nuu near, j
in such large numbers, iliat the ]
Gospel Tabernacle of the Christ- (
ian Crusadere has been well
filled every night. This trul.v j
means something. And what? ;
That God is moving. Who can i
doubt this^'fact? Who will doubt <
it? \
The soul-record, up to this i
time, is of a very encouraging j
nature and shows that 127 have I
sought the Lord in the pardoning i
of their sins. The names of 113 1
of this number have been enroll- 1
ed upon the Converts' Register, I
as those who have professed to
have experienced the "New
Birth," and God grant that the
name of ever}- one has also been
recorded in tlie Lamb's Book
of Life, and that they may so
walk before Him, individually,
that He may preserve I hem unto
His Heavenly kingdom.
Many bright evidences of conversion
are seen in the lives of
the^e n e w born souls. One
instance of recent d a t e, is
worthy of not. On oneoccassion
the mother and father in a certain
family were both unavoid- i
ably kept from homo at the usual
hour for family worship. Their
young son of 12 years, who has i
recently lound Christ, said to his
brothers and sisters: "Mama ami
Papa are away and who will 1
conduct family prayers?" His
own answer quickly came. "Oh,
I can, I can," and, true to his
word, the brave little soldi* r did
so. On the dav following the
conversion of another bright boy,,
he destroyed some trap*, which
lie had made ai d set for the pur
pose of catching poor, litile, in.
uocent birds. It these young boys j
and others, who have recently
given their he arts to Christ, are
tenderly nourished they will,
doubtless, develop into strong!
robust, and useful Christian j
charade, s.
One of the principal features
ofthe meetings during the past
week.has been the testiinonial sor ,
vice, which h is been conducted
?;?i,ti i.. ,i... 1 ? I

i 11 ir services, which were so tenaciously
adhered <> by our primi-1
Jive f at her in gospel, bill which j
in Ibis "enlightened age,"
have been dispersed wi'b a very |
great extent, many of the young
converts anil also those mature
experience in the Christian life,
are taking part. Who can doubt
the reality of a hoart felt expe
rience when such expressions, i
the following come Irom ll
hearts ot those who have lour
Jesus as a satisfying portion? k
still have perfect peace anil ha
piness in Jesus This supernntu
at grace and power is a rich ban
account from which we can mal
drafts at any time, and they wi
always be honored." '! know
am at peace with Jesus, and
am not ashamed to speak t<
Him anywhere. I get as hungi
to testify for the Lord as I g<
lor my daily meals."
"I am glad to be able to sa
that 1 know the devil has foun
in me a formidable enemy, on
thai is very hard to manage,
seems sometimes, us though li
has left me entirely, but this
not so, for well do I know tin
ho will return, and with redoul
ied energy, try to break (low
my faith, lie shall not do so, f<
by my determination and tli
power the Lord has given me,
um prepared to buttle again:
him. 1 am more determined tha
ever before to stay thus prepare!
If I could tell you of that Go
<iiven peace of mind and heart
am now enjoying, I would wil
ingly do so, but I cannot, an
you will have to go through tli
selfsame experiences that I hav<
in order to find out." "Iwouldn
^ive my hope of heaven for a
the world. I had no real pleasui
until I came to Jesus. Now
