Last Saturday night fcr ibrd found it necesr..ry to arise from the bed and as Le was crossing the floor of his room became suddenl; dirrzy and fell in such a manner a? to fracture cue of his It gs. this was the way the people were locking at the matter, and this an gered the king more than ever. H" could not treat David with any de gree cif decency, and attempted to smite him to the wall with his javelin or spear, but the youth with the alacrity of a cat sprang out of the way of the oncoming s-pear and it sank quivering in the vail just where David had been. Leaving, David. :na did t!ed fro:r not return to the court. 11 went into th woods and hit, rot known to ar.y exempt Jonathan, his dearest an i truest friend. Jonathan made a met ting with David in the field and said that his father. Saul, desires to kill David and for him to stay there while he went to talk to the king, and that he would then return with int ructions. Then when he- had spoken with the king, he was in a nv-asure recon ciled, and David cr:ne back for a s i'scn, but was compelled to leave again soon. David remained in hid ing, and as Saul with his army of two thousand men were hunting David, they came alone: the shore cf the Dead. Se?. rear Engedi. where was a rocky piece of country, and b r David with some four hundred men were hiding. Saul went into th" cave wh. r David was and as he sot 'her" in the mouth of the cave ir. tho corlne-Fs. for it was hot out fid.v David came up and cut a piece of te shirt of the cloak which S.iul wore-, off. and as Saul arose te leave Devid called to him saying.

The time will come when Cod in liis'own way will call you to an recount. He bai saved me from you tins time, and v. ill continue to do so. Saul when he knew that Da vid could have killed him and did not said. I have erred exceedingly. "I know that you are to be king in my stead, and I shall not again try to kill you." Saul then returned to his he-Hi" at Gibeah, and David returned to his stronghold in th mountain fastness. David well knew that Saul would S"on repent of the proroise to ner harm David, and b thought it best to enre frr himself, as best h" eould while r.'-t desiring to injure the king. It. was not long until the mood came on. Soul asrain r.d he talked to Jonathan shout killing Saul and (Jonathan said unto his father, why ! do you reek to kill David, when ho i has d' lie nothing urto you. bnt has ;Mways tried to do wTi?t he could to help yon, nnd he savM the nation c-f i Israel at the time of the slaying of uo';aTn oi (jath. ann won a great vic tory in the name of the Lord. Saul becoming much infuriated threw a Javelin at his son saying, vou have The Murray Community Club villi tried to make this man king and in present next week's preigram on Tues-i K doing you are keeping yourself tiav night instead of the regular Sat- j f being king.

Last Saturday there were many people in Murray, coming to enjoy the excellent meeting which was held on the lawn of the Presbyterian ehurch and which was conducted by the Rev. R. R. Erowre and his bunch of jubilee singers and sner-kers. The people cf Murray were well pleased with the meeting and invited the party to come again. down to the camp, for the army .was camped In a ravine, and Saul lay in a trench with the officers closely around him, and the soldiers farther back so that the life and person of Saul wa3 very closely guarded. With great care and trusting: in Jehovah, David and Abishai threaded their way through the army who were sleeping for Jehovah had caused a deep sleep to come on them. When they came to the place where Saul lay sleeping with his head on a pil low, and his spear thrust into the ground and a cruise of water at it3 foot, that the king might have a drink during the night when he would awake, Abishai said unto David, "The Lord has delivered thine enemy into thy hands, now let me smite him as he lays, with the spear, and I will only make one stroke and it will pin him to the earth with his own spear." David said. "God forbid that I should lift my hand against the Lord's annoint ed." The day will come when he shall die, or he may get killed in battle, or that God may kill him, but I cannot lift my hand against the Lord's annointed. Eut let us take the spear and the bottle of water and take them away. So David took the spear and the bottle of water ar.d they made their way carefully through the sleeping host, and after petting outside the camp, and on the other side of the ravine en the top of a cliff, David called back to the sleeping monarch, and his captain Ahner as well as the whole army. Ahner perhaps ever alert, when David called his name awoke instant ly, and called back to David, asking who is it that calleth to the king. King Saul, who was well acquaint ed with the voice of David, for had not David played and sang before the king many a time when Saul was gloomy and he well knew the accents of the voice which called. The camp was arrounsed. and looking for the a 'li.,. Saul found that his spear and bottle of water were grn. Then did David call over tho darkness, saying, where is your spear and botil cf wati-r. I have them and when I got them I eculd as well have killed you as not, but I have never sought your life, notwithstanding you are seek ing mine and had sought it. You have hunted me like a dog or some wild animal, while I have tried to do you good all thew hile. Why ?!. rid you se-ek to kill me? Saul said. I have sinned in that I have, sou eh t your life and I will no more endeavor to slay you. These two times could David have taken 'hp life of Saul had he so desired, but he did not want to do so. While David kn-w t:iat he would -:ie day be the king of Israel he was ir no hurry and was willing to that he would fa.ll in the hands of the enemj-, he placed the handle of his sword in the ground and the point against his body, and falling so com mitted suicide, and in the same bat- tile on Mt. Gilboa, Jonathan also was slain. David in his lamenting said "0 how have the mighty fallen," for he mourned greatly for Jonathan, hia dearest friend, and for the father of that friend.
