I lev. Austin's Itook. From Saturday'! Dally. Rev.' Ward L. Austin, the pastor of the First Methodist Episcopal church of Plattsmor.th has written a large look, containing much deep thought, entitled "Pardon Versus Cleansing." The one point the min ister Beeks to make, and surrounds it with all arguments bearing on the question, is that justification and regeneration are separate elements of the christian experience and may, or may not, occur at the same time. That great numbers of the members in the protestant churches, while having enjoyed the evidence of par don, yet give no evidence of pardon, or feel none in their heart, or regen eration, or the new birth, and that this condition In the churches has become the basis of teaching the doctrine of holiness. He quotes from several authors of theological works, who are themselves Methodists, Wes ley's sermons, Wesley's works, His tory of Methodism by Stevens and many others, giving due credit for the same. Our pastor writes In part "I believe that thousands of believers In the chursh today will have to be born again if they ever see the King dom of God. Regeneration In Its very naturo refuses to be partial A Christian Is either regenerated or unregenorated. It Is Impossible to accept the partial birth Idea as pre sented by Mr. Wesley concerning the carnal Corinthians, to whom Paul wrote. A life Is either right or wrong, It cannot bo both right and wrong. Some church members (be llevers) say sin every day of their lives, and we have no reason to doubt their word, but the Idea that a Chr!ntian, a regenerated person, cannot help sinning is absurd. It would bo Just as absurd to expect to find hot Ice, an honest thief, a Re publican prohibitionist or a truthful liar as a sinning saint." A. L. Illx- by, In tho State Journal. High Wind Ln.it Kvtalng. From Frlduy'! Dally. A high wind sprurrs op InBt even ing about 4:30 o'clock bring with it a storm of dirt and sand which made life on the streets a burden. The storm was sudden In its formation and resembled a cyclone In Its na ture. The wind which had been blowing out of the south all day, suddenly turned to the north and within the space of a few moments its velocity had increased until a height estimated at forty to fifty miles an hour prevailed. No damage was done so far as can be learned but during the entire evening travel ing was disagreeable, the sand, dust and dirt filling the air and blinding pedestrians while houses were in vaded by the fctuff and made dirty. The wind was accompanied by a fall in temperature which did not, how ever, reach the frost lino. Farmers were much discouraged by the thango as It seems to indicate a continuance of the dry weather, and something which they want broken. Rain is badly needed and it will take warm weather and south wind to produce It. Fields are very hard and the ground on top very dry and warm rain Is the necessary articlo for the crops. The weather bureau holds out no hope for an immediate change the prediction for today and tomor row being fair weather. . Conditions at lluvelock. From Friday's Dnlly. The effects of the llavelock strike are now commencing to be felt by the merchants and business men of that place. This morning's Lincoln papers state that a real estate man of that place Is authority for the statement that since the Btrlke com menced there has ceased to bo any activity in real estate In the town and that transfers of property have ceased entirely. Business men make statements to the effect that they have not yet felt the effect of the strike but they are apprehensive that the next pay day will find a numbor of their credit customers unable to meet their obligations. That the strike is having a depressing effect on business in llavelock Beems with out question and that It Is causing considerable uneasiness is quite evi dent. The strike coming right along with the closing of the saloons In that town has transferred It from a lively, bustling place to a very qulot little town. That the effect will be much worse Is to be expected and Is believed by all acquainted with the situation. It is said that a number of those first employed by the company when the strike took place have been found undesirable and have been let out, although the exact number la not Btated. The men who have been put to work do not leave the shop yards and sleep in, tourist sleepers which have been parked in the rrds. The meals are furnished in btmrding cars. The yards are guarded by upeclal po lice maintained by the company.

This was one occasion on which peoplo were glad the alarm was a false one as the high wind made them apprehensive of great loss should flames get start ed.

Good Service; Reasonable Rate atwt at Newell Home. The Ladles Auxiliary of the Pres byterian church were entertained at the pretty home-of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Newell yesterday afternoon with their daughter Miss Bernese, Mrs. G. L. Farley and Miss Olive Gass as hostesses. A missionary program, which in cluded both home and foreign mis sions, had been arranged for and during the afternoon this was render ed. This program was most highly enjoyed and appreciated by the large number of ladies in attendance, there being about forty, and consist ed of readings, papers and vocal solo. It was opened with the reading of the 76th Psalm by Mrs. W. II. New ell. The entire company then join ed in the singing of a missionary hymn. Mrs. Dr. Balrd then gave an Interesting paper on the Freed men's board, which was following by entertaining papers on India by Mrs. Wise, Mrs. D. C. Morgan, Miss John ston, Mrs. E. D.

The ladies were then served delicious Ice cream and cake which very materially aided in the pleasure of the afternoon. At the M. K. Chinch. The platform of the Methodist church last evening resembled that of a convention or general confer ence by reason of the out of town ministerial talent seated there. Be sides Evangelist Campbell and his talent son, Alva Campbell, the singer, there was district superin tendent George I. Wright of Nebras ka City, former pastor J. E. Houl gate, Rev. W. O. Harrel, pastor of the Mynard and Eight Mile Grove churches and Rev. Austin of the local church. The singing was spirit ed and most enjoyable and was led by an unusualjy large chorus under the direction of Mr. Campbell. The text for Evangelist Campbell's dis course was taken from Isiaah "As a mother comforteth her child, so will I comfort you.' The evangelist em phasized the characteristics of a good mother and said that was only a faint analogy. of the tenderness and love of the Holy Spirit in dealing with God's children. He asked for an expression from those who knew this comforting power and was gratified at the result. The services will be held Jonight at the usual hour and a cordial invitation Is extended to all to attend. Wedding at Weeping Water.
