ment, to take up the awful wailing: "The harvest is. past, the summer is ended, and I am not saved." They were both buried in one grave. The fear of God fell upon the whole community, for many said that I prayed to God to kill them, and that the warning I gave them was from God. Eternity alone will tell how many were brought to Christ in this meeting.

THE GREAT JUDGMENT MORNING

(The following is a dream a Salvation Army Captain had.)

I dreamed that the Great Judgment morning
 Had dawned, and the trumpet had blown;
I dreamed that the nations had gathered
 To judgment before the White Throne.
From the Throne came a bright-shining angel
 And stood on the land and the sea,
And swore with his hand raised to Heaven,
 That time was no longer to be.

And, oh, what a weeping and wailing
 When the lost ones were told of their fate;
They cried for the rocks and the mountains,
 They prayed but their prayers were too late.

The rich man was there, but his money
 Had melted and vanished away;

A pauper he stood. in the judgment,
 His debts were too heavy to pay.
The great man was there, but his greatness
 When death came was left far behind,
The angel that opened the records
 Not a trace of his greatness could find.

The widow was there and the orphans,
 God heard and remembered their cries;
No. sorrow in Heaven forever,
 God wiped all the tears from their eyes.
The gambler was there and the drunkard,
 And the man who had sold them the drink,
With the people who gave him the license—
 Together in hell they did sink.

The moral man came to the judgment,
 But his self-righteous rags would not do;
The men who had crucified Jesus
 Had passed off as moral men, too.
The soul that had’ put off salvation—
 "Not tonight; I'll get saved bye and bye;
No time now to think of religion!"
 At last they had found time to die.
