In tin- first issue of the Texas Ma-

ford. secretary-treasurer of the Tex-

cry convincing argument made he
tore the Rivers and Harbors commit-
tee of Congress hy Henry J Lutcher,
it'f which resulted m the committee
recommending an appropriation for
deepening the harbor of Sabtne Pass
Mr Swmford says
In February. 11**1. three of us ap
peared before the Senate committee
on Commerce at Washington in the
interest oi deep water at Sabine Pass
It I may be excused for the little per-
sona! reference, these three to whom
1 refer, were John Henry Kirby.
Hint) J l.utcher, and myself. Mr
Kirby and I presented the matter to
the committee in a very interesting
and satisfactory way. at least we
thought we did, hut the climax was
reached hy Mr Lutcher who gave an
illustration to simplify the idea we
wished to convey and to emphasize
the importance of the request we
were making That illustration,
which I »tl! endeavor to put in his

A short time since. one of our customer* received a state-

than a year ago.
I his man wa» of the opinion that the hill had l»een paid, and
came to the hank to request us to look through his account of
the previous | antiary for a check of the same amount as the
btll rendered.
Wd found the entry and date, he went home and looked up
his cancelled checks and the following day was able to con-
vince his doctor beyond all doubt that the bill had Iteen paid.
That cancelle4 check was worth twice its face value. Why

"I thought on my ways ami turned
my feet unto thy testimonies.”—
Psalms, 119:59.
From the text quoted above, Rev.
J T Smith last night at the Meth-
ods! church delivered one of the most
powerful and searching discourses
ever heard in Orange
lit his elucidation of the text he laid
(tare the heart of the professing Chris-
tian and church member and made
each of those present see, in all its
bareness and insincerity, the real res
ligion of many,
Hr’ divided his congregation, figur-
atively, into two groups, the church
members and the Butt-church mem-
bers. and devoted the first part of his
critwm to the application of the text
o the life ami the way of the church
it ember
He first stated' that the text meant
just what it said. "I thought on M \
ways," not the ways of my neighbor
Anil in planning to think on Ins ways,
• he 1's.tltnist had set himself the hard
cst task that man ever attempted, that
of seriously thinking on hi* ways,
ways in the text meaning manner
habits.
As a church member, "1 thought
on M\ way. my way led me to the
theater; my way led me to the sa
loon; nty way led me past the church
house on prayer meeting night; tty'
way led me away front Sunday
School, etc "
He suggested to the church mem
tier that he apply this little couplet
to hi* way as a member of the church
of Christ
If all ottr member* were just like
me.
\\ hat sort ot church would my ebu
he5"
The iihstrch member whose way
habitually leads him to neglect the
prayer meeting, the Sunday School,
the Kpworth League, the regular
church services, etc . is not traveling
the straight anti narrow way that
lead* t" heaven and happiness, but i*
m the broad way that leads to death
nil destruction.
Applying the text to the non
church member, h< asked him to
'think Tin his way*."
"My ways lead me to procrastinate,
to put off until a more convenient
season the great question of assuring
my soul's salvation; I am moved by
the preacher's appeal and make up
my mind that I want to do better and
take nty place on the side of jCTiris-
tianity, hut I put it off and say there
is plenty of time, my way leads me
to procrastinate until finally I dis-
cover that it i* everlastingly too late;
my way leads me to scoff at those
who would talk to me about my soul’s
salvation; tny way leads me away
from all that is good, pure and holy,
and leads me into a life of sin."
The prfeacher said that the great
sin of the world today is thoughtless-
ness. If men and women could be
induced to think, and think rightly,
there would be a revolution that
would Christianize the whole world.
lie gave several striking illustra
lions of the evil effect* of thought
lessness, and of unwise thinking.
"The heart of the world is sick.'
exclaimed the preacher, “sick ami
suffering because people do not
think.
The discourse was one of the mo.st
searching and appealing ever heard in
Orange, and sent the congregation
away deeply impressed with the nc
ressity of ‘'thinking on fheir ways.’
and impressed with the assurance
that right thinking on their ways
would result in the "turning of their
feet unto Thy testimonials,’'
