A Description of the Revivalist as He Delivers His Message to a Chicago Audience. From the Chicago Tribune. Sam Jones makes a queer impression upon one who looks at him over a iong streteh of Masses of heads and tries to estimate his quali- les asaspeaker. But the first idea is, whate magnificent audience. ‘The big, low-roofed hall fs packed with people, and banks of spectators slope up tothe ceiling on all sides, The form that rises upon a platform almost in the center has the eyes and ears of all that vast assem- biage. There is no greater opportunity for elo- quence, for the speaker has an audience that hushes its chattering curiosity to catch his every word, and he has a theme above all other themes that have called forth human elo- quence, ‘Ehis figure is not an impressive one in its ERE IS NOTHING SURPRISING IN THE fact that Benson's Capcine Piasters are widely imitated: that cheap and worthless plasters wich names of similar sound, and similar appearance in type, are freely offered forsale. Articles of great and original merit always have to compete with trashy imitations, But as they become known they die out throagh de- served neglect. Meanwhile we warn the public against the so-called “Capsicum,” “Capsicin,” “Capucin.” and “Capsicine,” plasters, whether “Benton's,” “Burton's or otherwise. They have nomedicinal of curative vir- tues whatever, and are méde to sell on the reputation of Benson's, When purchasing ask for Benson's, deal with respectable druggists only, and you cannot be de- ceived. ‘The genuine has the “Three Seals” trade. mark on the cloth and the word “Capeine” cut in the quiet conventionality. ‘The speaker in a cut- sway coat, showing his watch chain, might be taken for a well-to-do clerk or engineer. The frst peeuliarity is noticed when be Hits his hands. The lanky, cuffiess wrists contrast strangely with the whitely collared neck. But Mr_Jones has not overlooked an article of his dives. When he lifts his arms in apostrophe or Prayer that stretch of bare wrist has its proper Ggatnatic effect. He fs a man who is appealing to the people, and he does not wish io haveany inore starch about him than ts necessary. The Yojce has a plaintive as well as a peneirative quality; it rises and tails, slowly, drawingly, pd with every phase Upped with a rising In flection and a twang. It is not wearisome; it 1s Soothing. It 1s the voice of one who has never been in’ much of a hurry, and it might have taken its melancholy color from the loneliness fthe mountains. It js homely, but not rude. ‘The sermon begind and one wonders at the speaker's fluency. He takes an idea, and he gpreads \t outas thinly as they spread the but- feron the bfead at a charity school. He is never at a loss for wn idea, for he keeps ringing the changes on the old one till something else ‘urs to him. When he feels for somethin, fresh he his hand slowly over bis head, running his flngers lightly through his hair. Hé Seems 10 eave the assurance of innocence itself; thoughts panting tor utterance do not stumble OF crush each other at his lips; he never suifers from the rush of ideas to the brain. Other men Inay tremble or flush with the message that is in them and is struggling for deliverance, but Sam Jones bas a calm consciousness of power thut ‘would well become a power that was Greater. He soongmakes a joke. There is aripple of applause and a great gratitied cackling. The nge of spectators near the doors who have been sitting and staring at one another with the indifference ‘of sightseers suddenly crane their necks and cackle with the rest, ‘That is undoubtedly what some of them have been waiting tor. It is said that Americans are fippant. Some, indeed, speak of their fip- paucy as irreverence. "But there are others that hold that humor, even if itsometimes runs away from the apron strings of taste, Is a healthy child and will grow up rugged and manly. Mr. Jones, it would hardly be original to say, 1s a humorist. It may be questioned whether the tragedy of life has impressed him deeply; butitis certain that the comedy has | touched him acutely. But stop. He strikes a | pathetic chord He’ speaks of maternal love. he tone 1s trde, but not overwhelming. “An | orator would have swayed that vast audience, and fF & single ‘instant perhaps have fused all souls iy a single flame of feel- ing. Mr, Jones is not the master of his hegrerg. ‘There is something wanting in him tof him absolute control. ‘The expression indifference returns to somie faces, the smile of amusement to others, and the loose, owing semtences slope lazily thpough the air. Now and then, when a point,is to be made, the speaker sto low, and Mfting himselt high Mille sweeping his’ arms, gives forceiul, utter- Snegtosgmeé epigrammatic thought. This whit brliks the monotony. Once an Imagin: live flight is attempted—the description of a garavan in the @esert sending the cry of “Water found” from one voice to another toward the rear. ‘The figure is a fine one, the stmiletas it is applied is apt; but betore the effect Ut what Is reaily eloquent Is obtained the Speaker branches off on a trivial story. itmay be said that what is best in Sam Jones is ais easy, familiar way. The very tact that ue takes no pains with words or with ¢ culating eflecis proves that he is not a really eat speaker. There Is something more than tinct in the triumphs of great word build- ersand great word utterers. There is work— hard, patient, and sometimes painful. Mr. ones’ Ruency’ is at once his gift and bis fatal detget. He may convince many of the people who hear him, but he does not thrill them with enthusiasm. "The word “brother” is scattered through his rambling discourse,and the kindly, f-yaud way in wiieh it is spoken makes it ive. Itis the best thing he does. ‘The people in the building go scrambling out as soon as he is through; they have listened to | one of their own kind, speaking in their own every-day way of duty and of other things; they have been interested; they have been | Mekkled—nothing more, unless one be permitted to assume that they have been bettered by wnat they have heard, ——~—_e¢___ The Richmond Reservoir Tragedy. A NOTABLE CASE IN CRIMINAL HISTORY. Richmond Special to the Baltimore Sun. it's understood that the court of appeals will Tendcr a decision in the Cluvertus case in about three weeks. Of course as to what will be the ‘fect of that opinion can only be a matter of conjecture. Taken altogether, this case is one of the most notable ones known in criminal history of this state. The dead body of Miss Fannie Lilian Madison was found in the reser- | voir more than a year ago. The prisoner was | Srrested a few days later,and his trial followed, Fesulting in his conviction a few months sa quent. From that time until now not a single new pieee of evidence has been discovered which throws the least light on the dark mys- tery which surrounds the death of the young girl whose body was found tn the city reservoir that cold, dreary March morning. If there is | any one besides ‘the condemned man, who Is waiting 0 angiously for the decision’ of the court of appeals, who can throw any addition: light upon that tragedy, he or she has not made itknown. The prisonér’s counsel think they pavemade outa strong case, and while they ve little to say, are probably somewhat hope ful of obtaining ‘s favorable decision for their ellegt from the court.

The fire originated from a spark from the mill stacks in the furnace in Paul's mill, and in an instant the blaze grew intoa roafing conflagration. In fitteen minutes the quill was doomed, and tn thirty minutes it fell In Mains. There was no staylng the progress of the Haines, which jumped to the great piles of lum- g sea of flames, against the heat of which no fireman could stand. The wind was blowing fresh from he north. “At noon the situation had become palling. The flames were still moving stead- 'y southwest. All efforts to stop them at Col man’s mill proved futile. The immense struc. ture was soon a mass of fire. The great plawing-mill adjoining also caught “and the adjoining property was threat- ened. ‘The workmen and the fire depart ment then turaed thelr attention toward Cass street, where a force of men were set to work to tear down the lumber piles that the flames might be stopped there. All hope of saving the immediate property was abandoned. In ad~ ition to Paul's ahd Colman's great lumber tills, the Lacrosse soup factory and some eighty ginal dwellings, besides vast piles of lumber, Storehouses, etc., were burned. Ten blocks were burned over. Fully 1,000 men arethrown out of employment and 400 persons rendered homeless. ——ee0—____ A Sweet Singer of Colorade. From the Denver News. Miss Jessie A.
