Los Angeles, Cal., FEB. , 6 1915 ANOTHER OF THE PION EER SETTLERS OF LOS ANGELES PASSES BEYOND. Mt. Zion Baptist church, of which he was a deacon for more than twenty years, and many of the old settlers with whom he has, for a long time, been associated, met last Monday afternoon at the church to pay their last respects to the late Deacon James Johnson, who passed out last Thursday evening at his home on Court street. Deacon Johnson was born near Rome, Ga., about 70 years ago. He came to this city more than 20 years ago. He immediately connected with Mt. Zion Baptist church and became a deacon of the same. His association in church and society has been such that has won for him a place in the hearts of the people, which was strongly demonstrated last Monday afternoon at the Mt. Zion church. Rev. J. T. Hill, the present pastor, in strong, but pathetic terms, declared that in the death of Deacon Johnson the church would sustain a great loss and that he himself had lost a father and friend. Rev. Hill delivered the main eulogy, but Rev. McCoy also spoke in high terms of his acquaintance with the deceased. Deacon Johnson leaves a widow, a step-son, a number of relatives and a host of friends to mourn his loss. Melvin Shannon, son of H. Shannon, who has lived here for the past year, departed for his home in San Francisco Tuesday evening. This has been a strenuous week with our civic organizations and others who stand for common decency, when they successfully protested against the production of the Clansman in this city. They first protested to the board of censors but the protest fell on deaf ears, the committee from the Ministerial Alliance taking the lead then waited upon his honor Mayor Rose, but soon found out they could expect no relief from him, of whom if there is a public official living or dead that they would have the right to expect at least a fair consideration from it was Mayor Rose, but he very promptly told the committee that he could see no harm in the producing of these films, and that in case they did incite riot and disorder he would summon Chief Sebastian and the police force to quell it. The committees then went to the Council itself, the law making body of the city, and, found big, broad-gauged men who stand for the best interests of all of our citizenship and after hearing the protest, by their votes proclaimed it well founded and unanimously voted to instruct the board of censors to prohibit its production in this city. Rev. Byers, as chairman, and his committee from the Ministerial Alliance have rendered the entire citizenship of our fair city a great service, as also has the committee from the Forum headed by J. R. Scott, and from the Society for the Advancement of Colored People, and all the other agencies that had to do with the successful culmination of the campaign against this damnable prejudice-making play. Mayor Rose Ungrateful. Of course, the attitude of Mayor Rose in the premises was no surprise. Our people have had such little comfort from his administration that they have long since passed up the mayor as an arch enemy, and no wif any proof was lacking, they have it in his attitude on the production in this city of the most diabolical and damnable prejudice-making play which has ever been produced by man—"The Clansman." Every first-class city in the entire country has barred its production and even in some of the Southern states they have enacted special laws to porhibit its production. But our mayor, the Hon. H. H. Rose, who graces that position from the fact that the Colored voters lined up for him to a man, because it was thought he stood for a square deal for all; they found out their mistake, but, alas! too late. Why, Mayor Rose for highest patriotism and for the advancement of all the people is no comparison to the Hon. John W. Schenk, whom he defeated because the Colored voters lined up for him to a man. But it is the irony of fate. We have been slain in the house of our friends. We were valiant soldiers and shared in the march of Mayor Rose to a glorious victory. We have, as a result thereof, been denied even the smallest solace of comfort, for any of the things that were an uplift or stood for progress. These were all he could give that were uplifting. We were denied that. It is well that his honor has decided not stand for re-election. He has been a rank failure and will go out of office politically despised by friend and foe, and he will never have the temerity to seek public office again. MR. AND MRS. ROBERT C OWENS ENTERTAIN TUS- KEGEE STUDENTS. At their palatial residence at 1327 West Tenth street last Saturday evening, Mr. and Mrs. Robert C. Owens entertained with a very pretty affair the Tuskegee students and Prof. Winter Wood. The home was prettily decorated, dainty refreshments served, and many refreshing literary bits passed along.

Unto the Church, Saints, Ministers, and Gospel Workers, scattered abroad throughout the whole world, as far as the Church of God Messenger shall be able to reach: This faith was at one time delivered from God to the saints here in this world. Turning to the Word we find in Heb. 10:38. that He says:—"The just shall live by faith." We are now living by faith. Therefore it is now that we need all of the faith that God will allow to our portion. And it is high time that we, as ministers and saints of God, find out just how much and what quality of faith, the Lord has assigned to us as his people. And the way to learn and to be sure about the matter, is to go to the One who has obligated Himself to give us this faith. If we will take the Bible and Prayer Way, we will be sure to find just the quality and also the portion that God has assigned to our part. Now we are commanded in God's Word to:—"Fight the good fight of faith, (and thereby) lay hold on eternal life." See I Tim. 6:12. We can see by the Word that we have some fighting and contending on our part to do. And since we have to stand against the wiles of the devil himself; and against principalities; against powers; against the rulers of the darkness of this world; again spiritual wickedness in high places; (Eph. 6:11-12); we surely need all that we can get to enable us to stand. In the beginning of the Gospel Age, God gave this faith unto the saints as He gave all other gifts and blessings to the Church; which He placed in it then. And all that He gave to the Church then, and to the brethren and saints of the Morning Time; and as He gave them a Saviour; the very same Saviour and all that He gave to them through the sufferings and death of Jesus Christ upon the cross; He has given the same to the Church and saints throughout all ages; even unto us here in the end of the world; the Evening Time fulfillment of all things unto His Body—The Church. Hallelujah! Christ at one time tasted death for every man; and while He was yet in the world He said unto His chosen disciples:—"What I say unto you I say unto all." And all that He gave unto the apostles and disciples in the way of salvation and faith and power, He gave unto all the Church; even unto us, in this, the Evening Time. For, the Word declares that God is no respecter of persons, and Peter in Acts 2:39 says:—"For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call."

We hope that the San Francisco Chronicle and the Sac- ramento Union has misquoted the gettleman of Allensworth, but at the same time we hope that Bil Apgelo will keep his eye on the gentleman from Tulare county, city of Visajia, in the interest of the segregation of Allensworth Mr, Scott, the author of the bill, says it means segregation, but we can depend on assemblyman H. J. Fish- and senator W. J. Carr of Pasadena, Mouser and Lyons of Los Angeles, while Governor Jobn- son does not faver anything that looks like segregation. Remember that Allensworth is only « emall part of this great State, with abuut 265 peopleia the colony, Of the many persons who speak at the Forum against the proposed school at Allensworth the address deliv- ered by Rev. A. C. Williams, the pastor of Providence Institutional Church was a grand success before the Forum, while Rey. D. L. Me- Mickens did honor to the subject and himeelf also.’ He is pastor o! the 8th street Christian Church. Too much praise cannot be giver to Mes-rs. Jones, Troy, Greehrs Hickman, Manning Waller, Cole. man, Cole, Lacy, Roberts, Norris and many others, men that have kept a watchful eye on Los An: geles. Let us look at the States where segregation exists. Take Texas, i spends $25,000,000 for the whit school and one and a half millior for the colored school, Now lool at Georgia: The colored people o that State pay taxes on$34 699,447 yet only $1,000,000 is spent for th colored echool, while they spen: $11,000,000 in Mississippi, wher the black outnumber the white an: pay more taxes, yet $2 000,000 ar =jon the white and only $350,00 are spent on the colored; and d you know that there is more lynct ing in those segregation States tha et|there are in the State of Orego where there is no segregation. Tt illiteracy is only 34 to the 1,00 but in Louisiana it is 484 to tk » 11,000. In the south where tk 1d}gegregated schools are, illiterac 1 Jruns as high as 48%; in the nort where there are no separate schoo it is as low as 3.4; Ohio runs up little, as there are some schoo that you might call segregated bi =jranks 28th at.111 to the 1,00 California ranks 16th; there ai i only 15 States ahead of ours ar 33 below us; but if you will s still, and those people get that A lensworth school then you will | just like those Southern States. 1 Dl build » house you must get son tools, but to bring about segreg ™|tion contractor and assemblyms Fred C. Scott of Tulare coud! has already got his tools. E brought them from the colony. There were 52 lyochings intl United States last year; 51 we coléred and only/one was whit and every one but two were | States where segregation exist one in North Dakota and one: —| Montana, There are four towns | prevent each appointment by law, but if he wae out here he would vote with Mr. Scutt for segregation at Allensworth, Get some one to tell you what kind of a school house the State or county has for the colored at El Centro, That is segregation. It is $500; fine for a white person to teach a colored child in public ecbool in some Of the Southern Ststes or six ‘months ia prison, or both. I do not believe that there are any col- ored persons who would be glad to see sucha law enacted out here, but some of them have have very strange ways to get at what they want, See Oklahoma before you vote in thn Southern States where segre- gation exists. They spend $192 millions annually for educating the white children, while they only apend 16 millions to educate the colored children, while the colored people in Gsorgia alone pay taxes on more than 34 million dollars, That is caused by segregation. There was a time in our great atate when every door was open to ug, but such actions as those at Al- leneworth have closed many doors of hope to be closed against us, People coming vut here with nc | experience telling us what they did |back East, has caused many lines }to be drawn. The gentleman from ‘| Allensworth says the doctors look '|for sick people, but we say sick | people look for the doctors; he-say: |grocerymen look for the hungry | people, we say the hungry peopl :|look for the groceryman. It is th -|sruth. The undertaker looke fo: | the dead man, some one had lookec °\for Allensworth, if not they wil “|kill the whole state. He saic when Gumdaro was founded it wa °| greatly criticised. That is true fo t) many of the people went to th e|etate capitol of that great state, a n/they knewit wass step toward k | segregation.

The colored outnumber the whites by 223,376, yet the state spends six times as much to edv- cate the white as it does to educate ‘the colored, There are 158,682 more colored people in South Carolina than white, but the state epends more than six times as much to edwtate the white children than it does the sie | Oklahoma spends ten times as ‘much to educate one white child ‘as it does op one colored child. That is on account of segregation, So you may call-aedemblyman Scott’s bill s nightmare if you want to, but just as soon ad it be- gins to run you will see tnat it isa race borse andthe jockey is living at Allensworth, So let’s go on the track and block it. ‘ Just ask some of the Kentucky society what happens to them at Berea college, und ask some of the Ohio society what is the trouble at Oblin, and they will tell you how it happens by telling you justsuch: things.as the Scott bill. 4 «tll M La "©, Beatt bas been misled or inisinformed as to the standing of the Forgm; In this county it is composed of members from every organization, every church in the city: also from the Y.

Some people teach school for the salary there is in it, but we send our, children to school to see what we can make of them, So, you see we-do not live to eat, but take food in order to sustain life, The supporters of the Scott bill perhaps mean well, but they don’t know; but ignorance of the law is no ex- cuse for them, for Daniel Webste says we must legislate for th ¢ ignorant; but we have so muck confidence sin the progressive ad- ministration heaéed by Governor Johnson that we don’t believe that it will allow that bill that assemblyman Scott of Tulare has introduced to pass, known as the segaegation bill, Juet see Okla- homa before you vote, HOME PHONE 350 suxseT 324 w Overland Mission Garage T.

The stork visited the home of James Anderson and left a fine young man. Mother and son are reported fine. Mrs. Zennie Reese is spending a few weeks in Los Angeles at the home of her daughter on Santa Barbara ave. Mrs. John Williams' father is very ill, and is at present in the wards of one of the cities sanitariums. Early last week the home adjoining the Tremont hotel caught fire, and for a while it was thought the hotel would go up in smoke, but due to the prompt action of the Venice fire department very little damage was done. Rev. J. A: Trimble is very seriously ill at his Broadway avenue home. The Rev: was taken ill Saturday evening. The B. Y. P. U. had a very fine session on last Sabbath. The lesson subject was, "Liberality Pleasing to God." Brother J. Allen Reese lead the lesson and also addressed the Union in the capacity of president of the federation. Two enterprising young Men, Mr. Walter McNeal of Santa Monica and Mr. Ddward A. Reese of Venice, have combined their efforts as agents of all kinds of Negro literature. Messrs. Reese and McNeal have already succeeded in placing more than 100 copies of the Crisis into the hands of interested readers each month. They now have on hand the latest edition of the "Negro Year Book," "Masterpieces of Negro Eloquence," etc." The storm of the past week did considerable damage along Santa Monica bay. At Venice 100 feet of the pier was washed away. Santa Monica suffered the loss of its picturesque Japanese fish village and considerable damage to the Long wharf. The Standard Oil Co.'s pier was partly wrecked at El Segundo. The record was broken by the First Baptist Church when 14 members were added in the month of January, 1915. There is no revival, and baptisms happen twice the same day sometimes. The church will make an effort to build a new edifice during this year. The property as it stands is clear of all debt. Ocean View Lodge No. 15, Knights of Pythias, was set up January 11.1915, by Grand Deputy H. W. Markham of Los Angeles. FRESNO Many friends of Mrs. Ed Jones will be pleased to learn that she is convalescing from a very severe illness, but is still confined to her chamber. Miss Edith Jones, a very vivacious maid of Seattle, who filled an engagement with Mrs. Vaughn at the White Theatre last week, was the motive for a delightful house party on last Friday evening, at which the Cheavers girls and Miss Hazel Jones entertained at the former's commodious dwelling on E. street. Dancing was the principal pleasure enjoyed, and bridge whist a secondary diversion. Delicious refreshments were dispensed with at the conclusion of this jovial evening. Among those in the party were Misses Edith Jones, Addie Berry, Madge Chavers, Hazel Jones, Etta Halfe, Zola Chavers, Lottie Trueitt, Mary Thurman, Elfleeta Chavers, Emma Caskins, Bernice Chavers, Mrs. Emma Williams, and Mrs. Fdward Johnson of San Bernardino Messers. Heney Sims, Andrew Thurman, Leroy Calhoun, John Baskins, Joseph Morgan and William A. Bigby, Jr. Mrs. Emmet Beck, and her dainty winsome niece Mrs. Edward Johnson of San Bernardino, were the interesting house guests of Mr. and Mrs Martin W. Wolfe at their cozy bungalow in North D. street, last week. Mrs. James G. Scales has returned from Oakland after an extended stay at the bedside of her sick daughter, Mrs. Edyth Spears Fowler. Obituary After a prolonged illness of nearly a year, suffering from tuberculosis, Mr. T. H. Hudson was relieved from his suffering, by death, January 22. He leaves a most faithful and devoted wife After ten years walking hand in hand with her life companion, sharing his activities whether in prosperity or adversity. We offer our sympathy to the bereaved wife, that cannot be expressed in words, while she alone, at the home where some priceless treasures they cherished together in life, only remind her now of her departed loved one. We hope that to the stricken heart of the devoted wife will come the blessing of resignation and contentment. Interment at Rosedale. Home at 1950 Raymond avenue. Mrs. Hudson will visit her father, who lives in Oklahoma, the latter part of February, returning early in the spring THEY SAY. Central avenue boasts of the most pryfound disciple of Blackstone. A Central avenue man tried to convince his wife that he had been to bed, but he had not. Several church officers came near getting caught in the raids on the Chinese lottery joints. The white man Brown is getting tanned so that he can join the Negro Press Association. W. J. Thompson will soon announce himself as a candidate for the council. The fellows that talk the most are generally known to do the least. Watch them and see. The political bum's will have to reorganize for the city campaign. Rev. W. J. J. Byers, Rev. A. C. A. Williams, and Rev. J. D. Gordon made a valiant fight to prevent the showing of the moving pictures of the Clansman. All must keep a close watch, for powerful interests are at work to override the Council's action and show those pictures by hook or crook. CHAMPIONSHIP BILLIARD Prcf. Watson Burns, of this City, to Meet the Winner In Chicago this week at the Colored Odd Fellows hall W. W. Lawson of Chicago and J. W. Sims of Detroit played a match game of billiards for championship honors of the world. But whoever wins will have our own Prof. Watson Burns of this city to defeat before they have a clear title to the honor. Little as it is realized we have right here in Los Angeles in Prof. Burns, who we claim to be the best billiardist in the country and he will no doubt meet the winner of this contest. He will in a short time journey to Chicago for that purpose. Mme. Hackley In Recital Mme. E. Zalia Hackley will give one of her famous song recitals at the F rst A. M.

Second Baptist Church, Riverside At the Second Baptist church impressive memorial services were held Sunday, January 31, in honor of Dr. Wm. Beckham, D. D., the National Baptist Field Secretary, who has joined the innumerable host beyond this veil of tears. The program was well arranged by the Pastor Rev. F. K. White, D. D. Rev. Wm. H. Dickerson of Pasadena preached two impressive sermons, morning and evening. Revs. F. W. Cooper and J. E. Flutcher of A. M. E. church and ex-pastor Rev. W. D. Hardman's addresses had telling effects during the afternoon program. Many suitable paper were read, solos, duetts and quartetts were rendered which were pleasing to the large crowd. It is said by Riverside people Dr. F. K. White, D. D., as pastor has the highest respect of all and the church is awake as never before. Mrs. Wm. Sweet, Mrs. Stokes and Mrs. Butler are still on sick list. A ROUNDER. It has been the intention of the California Eagle at all times to broaden its scope.

D. Groves. It is needless to attempt to say who Mr. Groves is, for he is known and his friendship is cherished by old and new comers. SOME BARGAINS. Newton street, E. 21st street, E. 23d, in fact all parts of the city TESTIMONIES. THE COMFORTER HAS COME. St. Edward, Neb., Sept. 23, 1914. I was born in Sweden, 1866, was brought up under Lutheran parents, who lived up to all the light they had. I was confirmed when fifteen years of age, but was not saved until two years later, when I became convicted of my sins. Then I repented with godly sorrow according to God's word and asked Him to forgive me, which He for Christ's sake did, and I was truly converted to God. I have known it to be thought and said that one cannot be converted while belonging to the Lutherans. But God knows the heart, and when a soul is honest before Him and comes with a contrite spirit, really desiring to be saved, God will save him. After I was saved about three years, I went to a school where the other pupils in attendance were all unsaved, and I lost my experience. Later I came over to this country and was married. Husband and I both thought that it was not right to attend any other meeting but the Lutheran as that was the way we had been taught; so we did not attend any and we were not saved. I did wish many times when trials came that I was a Christian; but did not seem to have conviction enough to again make a start towards the Lord until a few years later, when I was visiting my father. Then there was a young sailor at his place, and he was truly converted. I think he was a Methodist. But he was so in earnest, and talked about the Lord, and prayed and exhorted us to turn to Him. I was again convicted and did seek the Lord with all my heart, and again found Him precious unto my soul. That has been now about twenty-one years ago. After I was saved again, I felt that I would like to go to meeting. There was none to go to but the Methodist, so I went to it. I could not understand English very good, but I remember that I told them in my testimony that I was saved, and that the Lord understood my Swedish language and heard my prayers. A short time after this a Holiness sister came to our house and invited me to her home, and said they had meetings there. So I promised to come and did go, but they were teaching holiness, and I thought that was wrong. Then I tried to tell them that that was not right and that nobody could be holy in this life and so on; but they showed me from the Bible that—"Without holiness no man shall see God," so finally, I had to believe and accept it, as it was the Word. Husband and I attended this meeting for about eight years and enjoyed many good meetings; but there was something about their teaching sometimes which I could not see as they did. They baptized with water if we did not desire to, just so we were baptized with the Holy Spirit. And they taught the receiving of the Holy Ghost was like this:—You must present your body "a living sacrifice" unto God and then believe the work was done.—See Rom. 12:1. They also took this scripture — "Sanctify them through thy truth; thy word is truth."—John 17:17. The seeker was asked—'Now, do you believe that?' And they would say:—"Yes." "Well, now you are sanctified. You must testify to it." I went through a form of thus receiving the Holy Ghost, but sometimes I did not hardly believe my own testimony. I had a longing for something which I did not have, and I was not satisfied and they knew it. Finally, Brother and Sister Maggart, then of San Francisco, Calif., seeing my testimony in the Holiness paper, were led of the Lord to mail me a copy of the Gospel Trumpet. I did not pay much attention to this paper at first as I could not read English so very good; but after a time I thought one day, I would just see what it was teaching. When I read it through, it was Bible and it was good, and as I accepted it, the Lord blessed me and I received wonderful light and help. So I took the paper to the Holiness leader and showed it to him, but he turned it down. I said, "It is Bible," and I accepted it and had my name taken from the Holiness book. Then some of the brethren who were in line with the Church of God and their paper, The Gospel Trumpet, moved into this part of the country, and we attended their meeetings. We did have some good meetings, and I received wonderful blessings from the Lord for walking in the light. They were teaching many good things which I had not heard nor known before, and I walked and rejoiced in the light. But they taught sanctification much the same as the Holiness movement where I had been. I was led of the Lord at once then to write to Brother Goss and ask him to write me his experience. I said:—"If he is a Gospel Trumpet minister and has this experience, there must be something in it." So I wrote. The Lord led Brother Goss to write me his experience and it was indeed a good one. Yet I was still dull of comprehension and hardly knew what to think, as so many ministers who I thought were able ministers of the Word of God spoke against it. But I kept on examining the Word, and I found it there just as Brother and Sister Maggart and Brother Goss told me it was. So I continued to correspond with them, and it seemed like Brother Goss was the one God was going to use to come and preach this present truth to this place. The third letter from Brother Goss I received while hanging out my washing, and I Finally, Brother and Sister Maggart, who had formerly sent me the first Gospel Trumpet, had in after years, searching God's word, found more of His truth; and told me that they had received the Holy Ghost as it was received by the disciples upon the day of Pentecost, in the Morning times, I was wavering, tossed to and fro and halting between two opinions.

Young, manager and proprietor of the new market of that name at 648 Broadway, said to be the finest in the west, has the same now in fine order and it seems that all roads lead to Young's New Market, which is a credit to the city, it is here that the best in their line can be procured. We take great pleasure in commending this market to our housewives and to our caterers and cateresses. This store is one for which we should show our appreciation, they conduct five stores in different parts of the city, and one at Ocean Park. All of them are strictly first class and handle only the best in meats, poultry, etc. THE PRENTICE NEW IDEA STORE. It is simply an idea of what could be done by concentrated effort. Less than four years ago Mr. and Mrs. Prentice started a little store on Ninth street with less than $100.00 worth of stock. Today they are sole proprietors of the two largest dry goods stores owned and operated by Colored people in Southern California—one on Ninth street, not far from Central, the other at Third and Rose. It is needless to say anything about support, for it you have any pride, whether race or otherwise, you will lend your support. "The Ultimate Hope of the Colored Race."

The New England Baptist Convention will, on that date, mail its report on "State of Country," to every member of the National Congress. A GREAT BOOK ON THE NEGRO QUESTION By Prot. Charles Alexander Every reader of this journal should have a copy of "Battles and Victories of Allen Allensworth," the great book just published by Sherman, French & Company of Boston, Mass., written by Prof. Charles Alexander of Los Angeles, California. This wonderful book contains the narrative of the life of Colonel Allen Allensworth, who rose from the lowest levels of degradation in slavery to the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel in the Regular Army of the United States, the highest rank yet attained by a colored man; and it also contains the history of the Negro race from the beginning of the slave trade in the United States up to the present time. This book is written in the most fascinating style, with bits of moral philosophy and sound wisdom, altogether admirable. It is intensely interesting to readers of every class. It is one of the really great books on the Negro question—a most valuable contribution to our historical literature. Orders sent to Prof. Charles Alexander, 502 Thorpe Building, Los Angeles, California, will be given prompt attention. The book contains over 400 pages and sells for $1.70 postage prepaid Books of this kind usually sell for $3.00. Agents wanted. Send the following letter (or its equivalent) to your three representatives in Congress: Hon. Ft. Sumpter Wagner, (give name of your Congressman and Senators), House (or Senate). Hon. Sir:—The New England Baptist Convention, the largest organized body of Colored people in the North—reaching from Maine to Virginia—issues annually, a document known as "State of Country;" which document deals with questions vital to our people. We have always added our sum total to the industrial progress of our beloved country in time of peace; we have been loyal to the Government in every battle; we have murdered none of our rulers. In spite of our peculiar trials, we have been extremely patient, knowing as we do, that an overwhelming majority of the American people stand for full justice and unequivocal rights for every American citizen. Our report is in pamphlet form and will be on your desk Monday morning, February 22, 1915. It speaks officially for our convention, and in accord with the sentiment of the entire race. As one of your constituencies, I am writing to ask you, as soon as may be consistent with your convenience, to read the little pamphlet, and give us the benefit of your influence and vote, in blotting out these injustices. Mighty hands must rule this nation, if successful it would be, Caring for both high and lowly, who've entrusted all to thee; Keeping watch as the Saviour on a sparrow when it falls, If it cannot, like the eagle, sail o'er highest mountain walls. No one doubts but that the Saviour made the sparrow just the same; Life he gave it; clothes and feeds it, and protects it in His name.

Tabernacle Baptist Church News We had the pleasure of hearing a very interesting sermon at 11 a.m. by Rev. Arline of Fresno, who is visiting in our city. He preached a compository sermon from the second chapter of Daniel on the "King's Dream" and the interpretation thereof and drew therefrom the facts that this is finishing up of the days of man and the glorious re-establishing o fGod's kingdom on earth according to prophecy. He brought out God's revelation to the king as to what the future would be. Showing God's eternal wisdom. We were glad to welcome home our much loved Bro. Molten, who has been away seven months. Bro. Scott also worshiped with us. Sister Strickland made an appeal for help for missionary work an offering of $7.13 was taken. An offering was also taken for Rev. Arline of $8. filled the pulpit and preached to a large congregation, his subject was John 12:31. "Now is the judgment of this world, now is the prince of this world cast out." He said in part, that some of us would feel as if we had nothing to do if we did not have to prepare for the judgment, but they had misjudged the judgment as well as the resurrection and the reason we had misjudged was because we failed to understand Christ we no longer believe it a period of time. How easy it is for us to believe what Christ talk Martha when he said he was the resurrection and and we must confess they are the words of the scripture not only resurrection but life and if he has come in you then Christ in you is the resurrection. If we knew that the judgment was now upon us everyone of us would be careful what we did everyday for we are to pass judgment on our own souls. Mme. Azalia Hackley worshiped with us and made a brief but pleasant talk along the line of her profession and invited all to attend her free classes of voice culture.

Sister Glover was not as well known as some of our members. she came to our city about one year ago in search of healte, she being born in Virginia but recently lived is Missouri and Colorado. Soon after coming here she joined our church. She was very quiet and patient during all her illness. The missionary sisters and friends went to her rescue when she was no longer able to care for herself and did all that could be done for her until she was taken to the hospital Wednesday and passed away Saturday morning. She was given a christian burial by the members and pastor of the church. Her funeral took place Tuesday in spite of the stormy weather. There were those christians who turned out to pay the last tribute of respect to her who had no other relative here but those who were of the same faith She was a most patient and cheerful sufferer and everyone who visited her loved to do so.

The angel appeared by "Sea" and told her she would t be a wonderful st his game should be he became a man in ing an Israelite wom he chose a Philistine afterwards deceived on his way to the hon he had an encounter which he slew with r hand. Samson became he discovered he had by his wife and he decide? he would re his return he was enter the house, as been married to hi This studied his s hands of the Philistines Samson killed one thousand of them with a new jawbone of an arm. For this Samson boasted but he did not give God the glory. Samson was enticed by another Philistine woman whom he married, to tell where his strength was. She was paid by the Philistines to do this. After three trials Samson finally told her the truth concerning his strength and she delivered him unto the Philistines, who put out his eyes and made sport of him at one of their feasts. Samson prays to God to be given his strength once more so as to avenge the Philistines for putting out his eyes. God gave him his strength and he caused the house they were in to fall down and they were all killed with him. While some men were physically strong they, as a rule, are morally and spiritually weak.

It appears to be a title or heading.] Sidney P. Dones Candidate for City Council sat down and read it under the clothesline. Such heavenly sweetness entered my soul that I felt like jumping up and shouting, and I received so much good out of it that I had to tell my husband and one of my sons about it. The fourth letter I received seemed to have still more of the power of God behind it. It seemed like heaven had entered my soul, and I was more interested in the things of God than I was about eating and what the family were talking about. I was happiest when alone with the Lord, for I was drawing closer to God. I felt led to ask Brother Goss to come here and preach to this people. He prayed and asked the Lord also, and was led to come. The Lord witnessed to me that He would send him. After a time the Lord sent him and he laboured here for two months. After he game I was more earnest and desirous than ever to seek and receive this experience of the baptism of the Holy Ghost. I seemed to get closer and nearer to God every time I prayed. Sometimes the power of God was very close to em and on June 9th, in the morning, I said to Brother Goss, "I feel led to pray." He said, "Alright." So we knelt down to pray and after prayer, the power of Ged fell on both of us. I was so happy I could hardly do any age of the Church. They said that God was returning the baptism unto the Church as in former times, according to Acts 2:1-4. I read their letters but hardly knew what to think about it, as I heard so much against this present truth. Sometimes I thought it seemed like Bible and was almost believing; and again at other thing but praise the Lord. He had perfect control of spirit, soul and body, and I did receive the Holy Ghost and spoke in other tongues as the Spirit gave me utterance, according to Acts 2:1-4. Hallelujah! Praise the dear Lord for evermore! I am still praising the Lord and will praise Him throughout all eternity. I am so happy in the Lord every day and hour, and that same power of God and holy boldness which came upon me on that day, is still with me; and the same Spirit which witnessed to me at my conversion witnesses every day, of the abiding presence of the Holy Ghost. Truly, the Comforter has come. My greatest desire is to be just what the Lord wants me to be and I want to be useful in the service of God. I do not want to be idle but to be up and about my Father's business for the Lord has been so good me that I feel like helping one May every soul who reads to ask God to lead them if they have not received the Holy Ghost. Do not stand back because somebody does not believe but pray and read and search Bible and find out for you and God will show you. If you do not believe rather ask man than not show you. You must with God and your able and teachable and will do His part. Your sister under had earnestly contend which was me. Mrs. M. L.
