Prayer meeting Wednesday 8 o'clock
p. in. Subject: "Promises of God."
Let each one bring "the dearest"
promise, and read or quote it.
Social meeting Thursday 8 p. m.
This feature of our religious work
needs mauy helps to put it where it
should be. The purpose is to get ac-
quainted, be drawn to each other, and
help the unsaved to feel we care for
them. The meeting will consist of
songs, recitations, pleasant converse,
and refreshments. We want every-
body to come, and all who come to
feel free, home like, and happy; but
not to forget that it is a religious meet-
ing. We will meet at 8 p. m. and
fctay as long as we want to. The yard
in the rear of the church will be
lighted and seated and the church
will be opened and lighted.
Everybody is invited and every-
thing will be free.
Young men's prayer-meeting Fri-
day at 8 p. m. All young men are
urged to come. Choir practice 8 p. m.
Saturday. Preaching next Sunday
and Sunday night. 1 Subjects and oth-
er announcements will occur in Sun-
day's Banner.
JOTS AND LITTLES.
Both services last Sunday were
good. "What the church owes the
World," was the subject of discourse
in the morning and "Two ways" was
the theme at night. Good congrega-
tions and good attention at both
services.
Over ninety attended Sunday school
Our prayer-meeting last Wednes-
day night was a spiritual feast.
Our young men's meeting began
Friday night with about a dozen
present, and was well worth attend-
attending. We hope to make this a
delightful and edifying feature of our
service. All young men are invited.
The sisters are bestlring themselves
to make the social next Thursday
night a grand success. It is not for
pay but for spiritual and social good.
It is free.
At the morning service we furried
in baptism two happy ones, brother
and sister Pomeroy. We shall look for
oft repeated similar occasions.
Eld. Abram Weaver the pastor of
the Independence church was in town
on Monday and we had him to break
bread with us, much to the joy of our
whole family, who love good company
and lots of it.
Come to our free social meeting on
Thursday night and see that Chris-
tians can be socially pleasant without
being sinfully hilarous and religiously
dignified without being bigoted and
stiff.
Eld. W. O. Bailey who preached a
splendid sermon at the dedicatioo*»f
our new house has resigned the §Ktro
of the church at Houston on account
of ill health.
The pastor is proud of many of the
young members of this church and will
do his best to help them to higher
spiritual life and greater attainments
in christian strength.
We hope to see the house full every
Wdenesday night and many christian
workers come forth from these spirit-
ual feasts.
We will, next Wednesday night
elect messengers to the Baptist gener-
al convention of the State which meets
at Gainesville October 5th.
Brethern and sisters; what do you
say to inviting the convention to meet
with us next year?
The two general bodies of Baptists
in the States were colsolidated in 1885;
and though the consolidated has met
every year since that date, yet it has
met but once (1888, at 1st church, in
Houston) south of a line drawn east
and west bisecting the State; and
most of the inhabitants of the State
are south of said line too. The pastor
has begun pastoral work and you may
look for him to drop in on you any
afternoon.
The Banner force is hereby Invit ed
to our free social Thursday night.
Fruit Taffys fresh every day at the
Brenham Candy Works.
Pauline Cruz was in consultation
tion with Justice Binz Monday morn-
ing in reference to securing a divorce
from her husband, Peter Cruz. They
have only been married a short time,
but Shakespeares "green-eyed mon-
ter" has been getting in his work
and the only thing that longer finds
them together is a dispute as to which
shall pay for the divorce. Each wants
the other to go to that expense. Mon-
day evening with officers present to
.keep the peace they divided their
goods and chatties.
