Heaven for Those Who Can Live
A Pharisee who professed
sion, but who was a secret enemy
Christ, came to Father Hierom
Bethlehem, and discoursed in
terms of the glories of the
state. The aged Christian knew
“Could you be happy in the
of that blessed state?” he
“The light of discovery is in
houra, and his word saith,
hatred is covered by deceit his
edness shall be shown before
whole congregation;’ and again it
written, ‘A bypoerit shall sot
before him.’ ”
A proud young Roman, of
fortunes, sought the father’s
ing. He would enjoy the portionot
finally redeemed, but ;ould not
ble himself to the faith of a
•Know who it is against whom

“Thou hast said in thy heart, I
ascend into heaven,’ but so said
cifer, son of the morning. In
did hs and his angels fight
God; and this is the record that
left of them: * Neither was their
found any more in heaven.’”
A jester of Antioch, cloyed
much mirth-making, but still
weaned from the frivolities of
world, had heard of “the better
heritance,” and in a morbid
wished himself there. “My
said Hierom, “with your nature
changed, what would you do in
es? God’s prophet hath said,
foolish shall not stand ! u thy
and ‘The man that, wandereth out
tbe way of understanding shall
main in the congregation of
dead.’”
There came a wealthy
whose soul would not miss any
ject of desire, and who blindly
that by some great gift he might
a mansion in the skies. “Alas I
cannot serve God and
said the rage. “‘What

A scoffing Greek ridiculed the
trine of a sepa ration In eternity,
argued that all the dead should

ration even here?” said
“and but two characters of men,
sinners swallow up the
bad almost come to pass
before thefiood. By the gravitation
of th*ir own evil or good each must
go to his own place—and only the
pure fa heart shall see Sod. The un¬
godly shall not stand in the judg¬
ment, nor stoners to the congregation
of the righteous.’ ”
A Jerusalem backslider said, “They
who enter heaven are not the church
alone, as Tbelieve. Many shall com#
from the East and from the West,’
etc." “You speak whatyoar heart
wishes,” said the sage; “because you
have returned to the world, and tbs
church is no longer pleasant think compa¬
ny. Bat how old, you, is
Christ? When sin began was there
not a Redeemer, and a sacrifice, and
a church; even a people whom he be¬
gan to aave? And from all lands, it
is true, he has gathered tbsm, but
they all have one tongue in Zion. It
has happened to you as to apostate
Israel; “Their children spake half in
the speech of Aebdod.’ You have
turned back to idols, and even a
son shall forfeit his inheritance who
makes biuuseff an alien ; for if one
so much as look back he is ‘unfit for
the kingdom of heaven.’ ”
A formalist set forth that he had
observed all the rights of religion,
and kept every sacred ordinance.
Should this fidelity go for naught?
Ask him who knows the heart,” re¬
plied the good father. “Many will
stand before the Lord and say, ‘I
have eaten and drunk in thy presence,
and in thy name done wonderful
works,’ and he shall answer, *1 never
knew you.’ Heaven will not be
heaven to him who finds there that
God and his saints do not remember
him.”
A wornout voluptuary, whose
bones were full of the sin of his youth,
visited the aged Christiania his cell-
thinking to borrow from his prayers
some preparation for death. “How
can corruption inherit incorrup
tion?” said the servers old man,
“‘What concord hath Christ with
Beliai?’ ‘The carnal mind is enmity
against God.’ ‘Who shall abid in
the tabernacle of tbe Lord? Who
shall stand in his holy place? He
that hath clean hands and a pure
heart.’ ‘There shall in no wise enter
into it anything that defileth.' ’
An ambitious office-holder, who
hfid spent a life in time-serving and
seeking personal advancement, be¬
trayed the same selffishnesa in his
desires and expectations of a happy
hereafter. “Can such as you see and
believe heavenly things?” exclaimed
the monk o| Bethlehem. “And could
such os you dwell contended in the
world on high, where there is no
human honor or glory ? ‘The natural
man receiveth not the things of the
spirit of God.’ 0 thou of ntow con¬
science and blind understanding!
Why have you slept so long when
the bridegroom called? You are a
’stranger to him, as far away as the
east from the west, and 'thus saith
the Lord God. No stranger uncir¬
cumcised to heart shall entei into my
sanctuary.’ *
A slanderer, driven by disease to
serious thoughts, said: “Let me die
the death of the righteous, and let
my last end be like hra!” “Remem¬
ber,” answered thestern monk, “that
they who eater into peace are those
who make peace. ‘Who shall dwell
in the Lord’s holly hill? He that
back-biteth not with his tongue, nor
taketh up a reproach against his
neighbor.’”
And so (says the legend) they all
went away in anger or sorrow, but
with arrows of truth in their hearts.
And lo, when they came again, repent¬
ant, and cried, “What shall we do ?”
Father Hierom gave them counsel as
one man, for he saw that they were
all alike. There was no Pharisee,
or son at pride, or foolish jester, or
wealth-worshipper, or scorner, back¬
slider, or formalist, or voluptuary,
or self-seeker, or slanderer, any more.
And he said to them, “You have be¬
gun to answer your own question,
for you cqwejwth one repentance.
You have but to agree in one faith,
and yon shall be fellow citizens with
the saints. Repent and believe, and
your faces are towards heaven as to¬
wards horns, for surely every ona,will
get to heaven who could live in heav¬
en and feel at home there. Is it not
written in Jeremiah, ‘If they will dili¬
gently learn the ways of my people,
they shall be built to the midst' of my
people?’ Go. then, and all the days
of yonr appointed time bear the
yoke of the Lord Jeeus, and learn of
him, until he shall say, ‘Come, ye
blessed of my Father, inherit the
kingdom; for I was needy and ye
ministered unto ms.* And in the res¬
urrection ao^maac youshall sit down with
Abraham and Jacob, and
be satisfied.”—[Watchman.

Griffin lee Weeks HSve Wot
Sold On*.
There was a rumor on the streets
of Griffin yesterday to the effect that
the Griffin Ice Works had been pur¬
chased by the Central Ice Company,
a corporation recently organized to
control the fee business of the South.
The scheme has been on foot for
some time. A charter was obtained
to Mobile last month, the company
has been organized and the stock
will be issued in a few days.
The company already contends five
manufactories in as many different
cities and is reaching out for more.
The Gage-Lyons Ice Company, of
Mobile, the Avondale Ice Company
of Birmingham, tbe Charleston (8.
C.) Ice Manufacturing Company, the
Brunswick Ice Company, of Bruns¬
wick, and the Gorrie Company, of
Savannah, have already been absorb¬
ed. The Central Company has a cap¬
ital of $500,000, of which $275,000
has been paid in.
The general purpose of the compa¬
ny, according to its declaration or
incorporation, said the nature of the
business intended to be done by it is
the purchase of natural or artificial
ice and beer, absolutely or on com¬
mission, and the purchase and own¬
ership or sale, ofthe capital stock
and bonds of any see, brewry, or oth¬
er manufacturing or industrial com¬
pany, and the conduct of a cold or
general storage ware house, wharfage
and cartage business, and the like.
Also to lend money to any manufac¬
turing or industrial company.
The Savannah News also says:
The officera of the company are:
President—Louis P. Hart, Savan¬
nah.
Vice President—Samuel J. White-
side, Savannah.
Secretary—A. S. Lyons, Mobile,
Ala.
Treas.—Samuel Lapham, Charles¬
ton, S. C.
Directors—L. P. Hart, Savannah;
S. J. Whiteside, Savannah; Samuel
Lapham, Charleston; A. Sidney Ly¬
ons, Mobile; Gaylord B. Clark, Mo¬
bile.
THE MOBILE COMBINE.
The first move towards to combine
was the consolidation of tbe two
rival companies in Mobile into the
Gage-Lyons company a few months
ago. Mr. Gage has been largely in¬
terested in the ice business in the
South, and is one of the principal
stockholders in the new combine.
Mr. Lyons is also a leading stock¬
holder, and is secretary of the com¬
pany. The plan of the Central com¬
pany is to control the stock of tbe
local companies, which will be operat¬
ed through the charters under which
they were organized.
A BIO FIELD BEFORE IT.
The Mobile, Savannah and Bruns¬
wick companies virtually have a mo¬
nopoly of the business in those cities.
Charleston is having the benefit of
a war between companies and gets
cheaper ice. The Central Company
is working to secure control of other
territory than it now has, and of the
ice business of the South. So far it
has been working quietly and but
little was known ot what it was do¬
ing. The company was chartered in
Mobile a little more than a month
ago and its principal place of busi¬
ness will be there.
ARTIFICIAL ICE.
The companies in the combine all
handle artificial ice, in fact there
comparatively very little natural ice
handled in the South siuce the
facture of artificial ire has begun.
Nearly all of the ice South of
mington, N. C., is artificial.
shortage in the natural ice crop,
which isput at about 20 per cint. of
the average crop is over 5,000,000
tons, and this shortage tends to
crease the product of artificial ice
to lesson the amount of natural
shipped to the South.
WHAT MANAGER BREWER SAYS.
The News and Sdn called on
ager Brewer of the Griffin Ire
by telephone, and the following
versation ensued:
Mr. Brewer, it is reported that
Griffin Ice Works have been sold
the Central Ire Company; is the
port true?” j
“No, sir.”
“Your company has not entered,
then into an ire trust ?”
“No, sir.”
“Do you know anything about
Central lee Company?”
“No. sir ”
“Is Mr. Bregan in town?”
“No, sir.”
“Have you any information to
part about the alleged ice combine?”
“No, sir.”
