Position.
To. H. R. Butler, an Atlantan, be
longs the distinction of being the Ural
trainmaster on the Western and At
lantic railway, or any branch of the
Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis.
The position has Just recently been
created on this road, and Mr. Butler
was the appointee. He la trainmaster
of (his division of the Western and At

The career of Mr. Butler Is an Inter

In 1886 he accepted a position as a

New York. Nov. 12.—Consolation for
the wicked and the unbelieving can be
got from the statement of the Rev.
Samuel Carter, the venerable Presbyte
rian minister, who has returned from
Europe, and reiterates that the doc
trine of endless punishment must bo
eliminated from the Westminster con
fession of faith of tha Presbyterian
church.
“This terrible doctrine." he said,
“that pictures God as a merciless one.
must come to an Issue. I am certain
that an Issue will bo made of It in the
Presbyterian general assembly soon.”
This Is not a new matter, for Dr.
Carter some time ago wrote n letter to
the general assembly condemning the
Westminster confession. The letter
was killed in the ■ committee, and no
effort has been made to try Dr. Carter
for heresy, as was the case when Dr.
Charles A. Briggs condemned the doc
trine of Infant damnation. Dr. Carter
has preached for forty years.

TORMENTS OF HELL
VIVIDLY PICTURED
BY DR, BROUGHTON
la Mh sernitm at the Baptist Tab
ernacle Sunday night Dr. Lon G.
Broughton graphically contrasted the
joys of heaven with the torments of
hell. He spoka of the reasonableness
of torment and the "figures of epeeeh"
relating to fire and flame and the "one
drop of water.” Laxarus and the rich
num were elaborated und their stations
In life contrasted.
"It Is the punishment of unquench
able thirst and flame,” said Dr. Brough*
ton, speaking of tho reality of hell. The
rich man prayed for a single drop of
water to cool his tongue, declaring that
he was tormented in tho flame. Think
of u condition like that! Uh, you say,
that is figurative language. It Is not
literal thirst for water, nor Is it ft lit
eral flame of fire. Suppose it Is Agina
tive. I do not believe it is, but never
mind, the, reality Is always greater
than the* figure. Thai Is why flgures of
apeech are used. It Is an effort to con
vey something thut cannot be convey
ed.
“It Is the torment of etei nal fixed-1
ness. Between us anti you there Is a;
great gulf l)xed so that they who would j
pass hence to you may not be able, and
that none may cress over thence, it is;
enough to *turn every disobedient
heart."
