Erect Church in a Day.
Waco, Texas, Jan. 12.—Serv-
ices, including the dedication
ceremonies, were held in Herring
Avenue Methodist Church to-
night, the building having been
completed between 7 o’clock this
morning and 7 o’clock tonight,
by a force of 100 workmen under
the direction of Oscar Mayer, the
contractor and architect. In the
morning the site was a virgin
prairie and at night a
church capable of seating a con-
gregation of 500 was ready and
was occupied to the full capacity
of the buildng.
Herring avenue is one of the
best improved thoroughfares in
the city and it constitutes the en-
trance to the city from the Bos-
que section.
People paused as they arrived
in the city to gaze in wonder at
the workmen who drove nails and
sawed with military precision, at
a little distance, looking like
brownies working on a fairy
castle.
About a third of the popula-
tion of Waco went out and
swarmed around and by 5 o’clock
in the afternoon the structure
was so near completed that all
the whistles in the city were
blown in honor of the triumph.
When the hour for services to
begin arrived all the seats were
in place and the structure, which
appeared to have sprung up at
the instance of an enchanter,
was glittering with electric lights
and full of happy people.
Rev. H. L. Munger, the pastor,
was assisted in the services by
several of the Methodist ministers
of the city. It was the first such
achievement ever occurring here.
Christian Dorbandt, of Burnet,
was in town Saturday and Sun-
day, visiting relatives.

their demands, and enact them
into laws. The four laws desired
are as follows:
Making it a misdemeanor for a
person to give a check on a bank,
when said person has no funds
in the bank to meet the check on
presentation.
Imposing a special tax on per-
sons selling bankrupt or dam-
aged stocks of goods in a city or
town other than the place where
said seller resides. At present
the state, county and towns are
deprived of considerable revenue
owing to the failure of a tax law
to fit such cases. Towns and
cities are frequently invaded by
persons with so-called bankrupt
or damaged stock of goods; they
stay for a month or so, and then
fade away. They sell their goods
in competition with the home
merchants and do not pay any
taxes whatever, either to the
town or county in which they op-
erate. The merchants are of the
opinion that a tax should be im-
posed on this particular charac-
ter of business.
An amendment to the present
law imposing a tax on peddlers,
by specifically defining the term
peddler. The law at present de-
fines a peddler as one who goes
from house to house selling and
delivering his merchandise. This
is now evaded by one man doing
the selling and another man de-
livering the articles the next day.
A law giving the mortgagee a
right to inspect mortgaged prop-
erty at any time, and failure to
allow such right to constitute
prima facie evidence of removal
of said mortgaged property from
the county in which the mortgage
was given. This will aid many
merchants in keeping mortgaged
property in sight, and will save
them time, trouble and expense.

meet Wednesday afternoon at 3

Rev. T. G. Alfred.
The Elgin correspondent of the
Houston Post gives the following
about the new pastor of the Bap-
tist church at Lampasas:
In the going of Rev. T. G.
Alfred of the Baptist church, El-
gin loses one of the greatest
preachers this city has ever
known.
It was truthfully and wisely
stated by the local paper on his
assuming the duties of pastor
here that he could easily qualify
for any Southern city. He is
scholarly and eloquent in the
pulpit; courageous and gentle in
his bearings, and one of the most
universal beloved of any pastor
and citizen this city has ever en-
joyed. His resignation leaves a
vacancy that his people of the
Baptist church are not able to fill
soon. He enjoys the confidence
and esteem of every man, woman
and child and carries with him to
his new field of labor the best
wishes and brightest hopes of our
entire citizenship.
The people of Lampasas, where
he makes his future home, are to
be congratulated in securing him
as their pastor.

twice. “Sanctification” does not
have the same shade of meaning
every time it is used. If used in
the same way every time, hope-
less confusion ensues. Direful
effect is also given by taking one
verse out of its setting, causing
an interpretation altogether re-
mote from meaning intended.
The word “sanctification” is
used in the bible four different
ways. Efforts to strain its mean- (
ing have caused more confusion
in the church than any other one
thing.
First, the primary meaning,
according to Romans 15 and 16
and also according to Paul’s let-
ter to the Romans, is the same as
regeneration, or new birth. Its
effect is instantaneous; it works
a revolution in the heart and be-
gets a holy nature. It causes a
transplanting from darkness to
light. All this work is done by
the Holy Spirit.
Next, on tne other hand, sanc-
tification is on the part of man, a
reception of the righteousness of
Jesus Christ. If he comes short
of this he comes short of every-
thing. No matter how learned
he is, if he hasn’t Christ to fur-
nish wisdom, he knows nothing.
Also, sanctification is a giving
up to the preparation for holy
purposes and the doing of holy
things. The dctong of holy things
does not exclucre one’s everyday
duties connected with the church
and sanctification should be
part of everyone’s daily life.
To get it, study the scriptures
Not merely being able to repeat
it in parot-like fashion, but
knowing the meaning. This is a
progressive work and one never
graduates. Activities should be
transferred from sinful to holy
practices. Sinful indulgences
should be abstained from. Holi-
ness is not a . subjective thing,
neither is it an abstract some-
thing. Holy things should be
the chief occupation of the mind.
The third meaning of sanctifi
cation is a growth of grace, and
this is commandatory.
The fourth and most used is a
setting apart, passively to holy
purposes—Isaiah 8 and 13, and
as for instance, when God sancti-
fied the Sabbath.
Watchfulness and prayer are
the fruits of sanctification and
Jesus said “watch” more often
than he said “pray.”
After this logical and interest-
ing discourse, Rev. Leach led in
prayer. Good music, with Miss
Ora K. Clack at the piano, was
rendered by Mesdames McLean,
Weinbrenner, Fairbolt, Frazer,
McCauley, Messrs. McLean and
Greeley Townsen.
Rev. Clack preached at the
evening service on “The Divine
Estimate of War.”
