GAVE ELKS A DIG. Continued from Tenth Page. ~ ? (fill show you the influence of asso jtion. I got a little rat. ur out in Texas once. He was about ' best that was ever made. He was a r -,er from Rattersville. He’d not only l rats, but he’d kill cats. You see wanted the cats to know that he was to take care of every rat on the place, .. 1 that he didn’t, want any assistance. 3 , was about the best btack-and-ton that ~v er went into a barn. My boys used to [yzg mightily on him.. Then I got a water spaniel and turned him loose tn the var d with the terrier. I tell you, it wasn’t three months before association Vl that rat dog had taught the spaniel ri re about the game than the ratter V- tv himself. My boys came to me and g , and thait the spaniel could beat the black ed id-tan all to pieces. There was terrier, with the rat-catch ing instinct bred in the bone, and there was that spaniel, with never a thought of a rat until he got to associating with tiiat rat dog. Don’t you see it? It was association. The terrier is dead now, but tht spaniel is still at It—still catching rats at a greater rate than any dog I ever knew. It's Just like some of you p,,or fellows who have got your vices. You are living along under them, while tie fellows from whom you got them through association are dead and damned." •The Elks are a drinking crowd, and that is the only reason in the world that I ever fulminated a single denunciation against them. They have an. evil in fluence upon your boys. I don’t want to see boys taken in by the Elks and ruined. 1 suppose you Savannah preachers have never said one word against the Elks. I guess you are as Ignorant about them and their ways as any ten-days old nig ger baby in town. I tell you, I’ve trav eled a heap in my time, but it took me a long while to catch on to the Elks. I didn’t get on to them until two years ego, but I’m on to them now. I like their charity and benevolence; that’s all right. I like any big-hearted fellow, but I don't like them to start to setting up a prac tice of drinking and getting young men in with them. I don’t want my boy with 'em, and if he goes in, him and his daddy will have a head-on collision when he gits cut. "You ain’t got a pious Elk in this whole town. Show me one and I’ll tat him raw without salt. I don’t want to see any recruits in that gang. Let them that are already in go ahead and drink all the liquor they want, drink themselves to death, if they insist on it, but don’t let them be pulling others in. Its a lot easier to stand up on the bank and keep ’em from pulling others in than it is to get a pole and line and fish ’em up out of the bottom of the river after they’ve done got 'em in. A fellow in the ESks who don’t drink is like a fool in the Baptist church w.ho don’t believe in immersion. He's got no place there, has he, Brother Jordan?” turning to the pastor of the First Baptist Church and getting a ‘’no’’ for his answer. "I'm here in a city,” continued Mr. Jones, ‘‘where it is almost as respectable to sell and drink whisky as it is to sell dry gods and eat bread and meat. By the way, I see in the afternon paper that some little fellow has been talking about me over a nom de plume. Do you know what a nom de plume is? It’s a buzzard with all his feathers stamped off. fit is the refuge of a pusillanimous coward who writes against a minister of the gospel. Put your name in, Bud, and I'll hunt up your pedigree. Do you know why he uses a nom de plume? I do. It’s be cause a nom de plume is better than his own name. Bet all who want to attack me. from the aldermen down, or the al dermen up, put down their names, for I’m a great pedigree hunter. You see. I’ve got the advantage on my side, because everything that could be said about me has been said. I’ve said it all myself, l haven’t kept back a single word of all the low, mean things I used to do. I guesi it would be different with the other fellow, though, and my hunt ing up his pedigree might discover some thing that he wouldn't want known." 1 don't say hard things about saloon keepers because they make money. Why, they ought to make money. A man en gaged in a business like that ought to get paid for it. He sells the meanest stuff on the top aide of the earth to the lowest characters that live, and then, when it is all over, he and the men he sells it to must all go to hell together. Tell me a business like that oughtn't to pay? I don’t fight saloon keepers. 1 fight institutions. No, I don't fight the man, hut I fight the town that will sell him a license to do business, thus dividing the proceeds of his hellish business with him. My objection to the saloon keeper is the same that I have to the louse—he makes his living off the head of the fam ily. "We wouldn't have to make a fight gainst the gamblers and the saloons if their evil work were over. If the gam ier never taught another boy to gam h!e. If the saloon never wrecked another home or if the dread infernalism of Sa ,rmah were to break no more mother's hearts and send no more souls to the lee pest depths of hell, then we would not" lav* to tight them. We would stop Just where we are, and their race would be run ' They say to me: ‘Mr. Jones, oughtn’t good people associate with bad ones so a to save them?’ Humph. When you tlnd a 10t, en potato what are you going to do with it? Put good ones all around it so to -ave It? Jesus Christ went to the ’ og pen and fed them, but he didn’t get 1 vvr with them. Run with drinking men and you'll get to drinking, run with gam ' and you'll get to gambling, run with t" ' low. dirty poJicy writers (turning to eddress the colored contingent in the con > ‘Ration) and you’ll get to playing the wheel. ’tickers, suckers!

Oh, you niggers; Come seven, ' ome < even.” It was quite evident to see at , ,hr : preacher didn’t make any par •tto at hit among those of the colored persuasion who heard him when he called .*?* riiggers."

MAYOR DORAN OF ST. PAOL Experiences the Invigorating Effect of Paine's Celery Compound. Hon. F. B. Doran, who has been several times honored by the citizens of St. Paul by re-election as Mayor, possessses many of the characteristics that go to make the reputation of a "sound man," and Is the last person in the world to publicly in dorse anything of which he has not fully informed himself. Mayor Doran decided to take Paine’s celery compound this spring, having heard much of its wonderful efficacy from physicians, neighbors and intimate friends. He was not disappointed. His experience with this great remedy was so gratifying that a few days ago he sent the proprietors a testimonial which adds conclusive proof to the statement of phy sicians that, of all the spring remedies that can be had, Paine’s celery compound stands far above all others in honest and great results: March 21, 1901. Dear Sirs—l am convinced that every one, sick or well, needs to take a spring remedy, and for that purpose. I believe nothing can equal Paine’s celery com pound. I commend it especially to the nervously afflicted. Very truly yours, F. B. DQRAN. to start with. I would rather be a ras cal than a fool. You can reform a ras cal, but, look here, did you ever have anything to do with a fool? Hear me, boys. You stay away from bad compan ions and stay with good ones. ‘But, Brother Jones,' you say, ‘I can't stay in Savannah and not associate with bad companions.’ Stuff and nonsense! I’ve been here four days, and I haven't been associating with any. And I ain't goin’ to, either, and they ain’t goin' to associ ate with me. If you were to ask a sa loon keeper down town which he would rather do, go up to the De Soto and spend the night with Sam Jones or go to jail, he’d tell you, "Go to jail.’ "There’s the secretary of the Young Men’s Christian Association over there. He can tell you the young men who fre quent that Institution, getting temporal and slpiritual profit from their associa tions there, and he can tell you others that you couldn’t get within a mile of the place. God help the Y. M. C. A. God help anything in Savannah that will keep the young men from ruin. I guess you are begging your way, ain't you, brother? Yes? Do you know any good thing in Savananh that isn't begging Its way. When a good thing comes to my town I’m goin' to help it in every way I can, but When a bad thing comes, I’m goin’ to turn the business end of a mule upon it and send it over the fence. ’’The crowd you run, with here is the crowd you've got to gang with in hell. That place Is projected upon an Intensi fied plan along the lines of evils that are practiced on this earth. I’ve preached in penitentiaries. The worst men In the state are not always found in the peni tentiary. They get the unfortunate ones there, those who were found out. I tell you, you poor white folks and niggers had better look out. You’d better behave yourselves, or they’ll get you. Poor white folks and niggers have a hard time in this world. They get the kicks and knocks of fortune, with few of the pleasant pats. 1 hope there will be good places reserved for them In the next world.” •’You poor folks let the rich folks do all the drinking they want to. You let it alone. The dirtiest dog In this town Is the poor man who takes a drink, know ing, when he pays for it, that It is taking soma slight comfort away from his wife and family that might be theirs If he was not such a fool as to squander the money on his cursed thirst for whisky. Let the rich folks go ahead. That’s the gang that doesn’t like what I say. None of you poor folks mind what I say, do you?” and off from a distant part of the Tabernacle came a ’’no” In a tone of vole* that made even the evangelist laugh. Mr. Jones closed with a story of a Christian dinner party he had once given the young men of Cartersvllle. He told It in an attractive style, and it was inter esting. He told of the advice that he hud given the young men, repeating It for the benefit of those who heard him last right, and It was such advice as could not but be followed with profit, lie then Invited penitents to come forward and shake hands with him. Many accepted the In vitation. The meeting concluded with the singing of two hymns. CUT SHORT BY THE RAIN. Bnt F.va ngrllef Ntnnrt Managed to C.et In Wonie Telling Hite. The usual crowd attended the afternoon service at the Tabernacle and es usual Rev. G. R. Btuert preached, but the ser vice was cut short because of the threat ening weather. The sermon was strietly a gospel one; It was on the subject of "Grow." “The world Is full of fools and babies,” said Mr Stuart, "that ts, bablew religious ly. So many people are Ignorant of all the depths of religious work.” Speaking from a religious standpoint, he said: ’’A man should be larger this week than ha was last week; larger this year than he THE MOKNING NEWS: SATUBDAY, MAY 18. 1901? Because a man Is growing old he need not ‘be an Invalid. Old age isn’t a disease. A man at sixty should be well, and many at seventy are as well as ever in their lives. But as age comes on the blood needs to be rid of rheumatism and the muscles of neuralgia; the nerves need feeding and the brain nourishment; Paine's celery compound is food for the brain and nerves. It builds up the strength of the body. The saddest ignorance is for a slfk person not to kriow the remedy that will make him well. Fortunately, few people have failed to hear of the re markable cures from the use of Paine’s celery compound. For rheumatism, neuralgia, impure blood, nervous diseases and kindred trou bles, it is a positive cure. The experi mental efforts of scores and scores of so-called spring remedies with which the market 1b constantly recruited are in startling contrast with the thoroughly scientific way in which Paine’s celery compound restores health and vigor to the worn-out blood and nerves. New strength, new life, new health come from its use—especially is this true in the spring. was last year, and so on continuously. “There are too many babies in the church. Babies in the home are mighty troublesome at times, though God pity the family that has no babies; I pity the family that has nothing but a poodle dog and a canary. It is a marvelous blessing that God has given you little ones to train for heaven. God gives us two childhoods; one to the child, to develop the mother, and the other to the mother to develop the c'hild. “As In the home the babies have to be watched and taught and taken care of, so is it true of the babies in the church; the babies in religion are as likely to pick up a pack of cards as the Bible; or a bottle for the prayer book. "I like a Christian that doesn’t have to go to the minister and ask 'do you think it right to dance,’ or 'do you think it wrong to play cards.' O', for a stal wart Christianity that don’t ask fool questions! ’The greatest need that I have found is the need of a genuine, old-fashioned, Holy Ghost regeneration. How many of you can say I have pasesd from death to life? How many of you read the Bible systematically, say twice a day? (Ten stood up). “I'm afraid,” said the speaker, "that too many of you treat the Bible as Pat did. A minister was carefully teaching him to read the Bible. One day he called to give his customary lesson. Pat was out, so he interrogated his wife. 'How is Pat getting along reading the Bible?’ 'Getting along fine,' said the old woman, ‘he’s out out the Bi ble now and reading the newspaper.' “That’s the trouble with too many of you to-day," said the speaker, “you're out of the Bible and reading the news paper.” Also Mr. Stuart said that what the people of the country needed in Lhsir homes was a place to pray in. “I have hardly found one Christian house in this country," he said, and then went on to explain that though he had inspected many finely appointed bouses he tad dis covered In but one a secret closet of prayer. As the rain appeared imminent, and as some of the congregation were leaving the Tabernacle, the speaker dismissed the meeting without finishing his sermon. ELECTRICITY SHOCKED MILE. Live Trolley Mire Had People .Moving on Bay Street, One of the over head wires of the Sa vannah, Thunderbolt and Isle of Hope Railway Company snapped at Drayton and Bay streets, during the rain etorm late yesterday afternoon. The wire fell in the middle of Bay street and sputtered and spit electric sparks at * great rate. A mule ran Into the live wire and was badly shocked, although not fatally burned. The negro driver had a narrow escape from what would probably have been a worse fate, and saved himself by jumping from the eart. The electrical display was rather pret ty, but several pedestrians had narrow escape* from being shocked. The power house was notified of the break and the repair wagon wa hurtred to the scene. The break was fixed In about half an hour, during which time the cars on the Inner lines were at a standstill. The broken wire did not stop the suburban cars for the reason that they are on a sepaarte circuit. LOCAL PERSONAL. Capt. T. J. James of Adraln Is regis tered at the De Soto. Messrs William Hearn and John E. Arden, who arrived from Atlanta last week to spend a few djy* with Mr. Joseph E. Phillip*, left yesterday by the Seaboard Air Line for New York, tvhera | Mr. Hearn is superintending the erection of an ice plant. Capt. Billups, the senior captain Af the Merchants and Miners’ Transportation Company, is in the city, on his way from California and other Western states, where he has been spending a three months’ leave of absence. He is on his way to Baltimore. On his arrival there he will be assigned to one of the com pany’s vessels. Capt. Billups is one of the oldest and best known ship masters coming to Savannah. He is known throughout the city, and many people have traveled North and South on the ships under his command. DON'T LIKE AMERICANS. A Departmental Clerk in Cuba Telia of the Island. Mr. O. H. Wright, who is connected with the Cuban Departmental service of the United States in Cuba, is in Savan nah on leave of absence. He has been on the island three years, but is anxious to get away from it now as he thinks that so soon as the Platt amendment to the constitution drafted by the Cuban Assembly, shall be accepted by that as sembly, all of the United States offi cials, and departments will be withdrawn. He says that while things politically are very quiet on the island, there is so deep rooted 1 a prejudice against Ameri cans that the Hold #s not an inviting one for any business enterprises, and conse quently there are but few Americans on the island, except those in the govern ment service. Mr. Wright has been, to his home in Wilmington, and is in Sa vannah visiting friends. IN THE FIELD OF~SPORTS.
