AMONG THE UNCONVERTED ‘When the customary multitude failed to quite fill Convention Hall on Monday night, it was feared lest the second week of the Moody and Sankey meetings might demon- strate that the crowds at the opening meet- ings were partly the result of curiosit; But last night the doors had to be closed be- fore 7 o'clock, and the throngs that poured away from the building showed that the storm had more to do with the lcssened crowd than any slackening of interest in the great revival. The scenes of the open- ing nights of last week were repeated and far more were turned away than could be accommodated in the Assembly and Mt. Vernon Churches, where the overflow meet- ings were held. The chorus doors were also closed some time before 7:30, and the meeting was start- ed ahead of scheduled time by a prayer by Rev. L. B. Wilson, after which Mr. Sankey, with the aid of the choir, sang “When the Mists Have Rolled Away. There was a short period of silent prayer, at the close of which Rev. Mr. Bittinger of the Westmin- ster Presbyterian Church prayed fervently. loth st. nw. Twenty-tfth year. Plano, organ, «ial semi-monthiy Tourist Parties the} voice, violin, flute. cornet, &e.

After three verses, Mr. Sankey asked the audience to help out in this line, which they did with energy. Dr. Bartlett's Cheerful Notice. The choir next rendered No. 276, and Dr. Bartlett made a brief but business-like an- nouncement. “The finance committee,” he said, “has placed on me the very grateful and cheer- ing duty of making a suggestion on the subject of money. No congregation has any respect for a minister until he has squeez- ed a large sum out of them, and every true Christian feels himself defrauded if he is not called upon to make a contribution out of his purse. It has been simply from a lack of time that we have so far allowed a single crowd to escape from this building without taking up a collection. So we shall now pass the baskets among you. This money is to pay the expenses of this hall. Not a penny of it is to go to any man. Pray as you give and don’t give any more than you want to. Then Mr. Pugh’s young men took two dozen little round baskets and went through the aisles, both on the floor and the stage, among the audience and the choir. The latter, however, continued to sing two hymns, while the coins chinked into the baskets. It was a generous crowd and nickels, dimes and quarters fell among bills in such numbers that the ushers had to grip the baskets with both hands as they went back to the platform. “I had a good deal of difficulty,” said Mr. Moody, when the chinking had concluded, “in getting into the hall tonight. There are now crowds outside of those doors and they are just the folks we want to reach. Now, I suppose there are at least a thou- sand here inside who can just as well come in the afternoon. To accommodate them we shall change the program tomorrow af- ternoon, and hold the day meeting here in- stead of in the Congregational Church. Then let me ask those who can come in the afiernoon not to come at night, too. If you don’t come we can reach twice as many. It is hard to speak in this big hall and I hope you will help us by giving every- body a chance.” Mr. Moody’s Theme. Mr. Moody read from the 55th chapter of the Prophecy of Isaiah, and then the choir and the audience rose and sang: “Halle- lujah for the Cross.” The hymn was ren- dered with unusual effect, under the in- fluence of Mr. Moody's plea to the audi- ence to sing heartily. The evening’s. address was based on the words in the 7th verse of the Sith chapter of Isaiah: “Let the wicked forsake his way and the unrighteous man his thoughts, let him return to the law, and God will have mercy on him and he will have abundant pardon.” There ts nothing unreasonable about this, said Mr. Moody. If a man is not willing to forsake his wicked ways he can not ex- pect God to have mercy on him. There are some things God can not do. He cannot forgive a man who doesn’t want to be for- given, nor can he make a bad man happy in this world or the next. He told an imag- inary story of a boy who lied to his father and refused to confess until he was corn- ered and then refused to promise not to repeat his offense. “Pll do it every chance I get,’ cries the boy. That boy has put himself beyond reach. His parent can do nothing for him until he submits his will. “Why has Mohammed more disciples than Christ? it 1s often asked. It is because the followers of Mohammed can live in the foulest, blackest sin, and no disciple of Christ can. “Let the drunkard turn now from his cups, we ask. But his friends say that he cannot, because he has not the will power. Ged accepts a willing mind and fives it power. With the command comes the pow- er. You can't scare a man into the kingdom of God. Suppose I should go down in front and point a revolver at that man there and order him to repent. What do vou suppose he would do? Why, he'd say quick enough that he was converted.

When the Situation Changes. “& storm comes upon a ship, and the sailors grow frightened, and begin to think of a hereafter. They stop their swearing and begin to pray. Presently the storm goes by, and all is calm and safe once more. Then just watch those old sinners bring out their oaths and return to their wickedness once more. I tell you there is no driving a man into permanent religion. You see men in jail weeping bitter tears, and you think they are reformed. You get them out of jail and that night one of them breaks into your house and steals your watch. They hed been weeping only they got caught. “A soldier who had chosen God's way was asked how he had been saved. He an- swered that God had just said to him: ‘Halt! Attention! Right about face! March!’ That had done it. There was but one way, and that was the one directly opposite to the old way of sin. “You can’t resolve yourself into the king- dom. I once pricked my wrist and wrote out a lot of good resolutions with my blood. I had broken some of them even before I signed them. You have got to give up everything. You can’t keep this or that habit. Give up all that is keeping you out of the right path. If I am out on the river in a boat with four holes in its bottom and plug three of them, the other will soon sink my craft. “Nor can you tell God how to save you. He's got his own way of doing things. God always stops a man’s mouth before he saves him. You mustn’t dictate to the Almighty. Human religion, wisdom and righteousness are the three great stumbling blocks in a man’s way. God has to sweep them away and get into the heart.” Mr. Moody closed his sermon by relating an incident that marked the close of a series of meetings that he once held in Hartford. On the last night he spoke to the same text, “Let the wicked forsake his way,” and he felt that he would never meet those people again. One of Mr. Moody’s Stories. “Five young men sat in the front row right under the pulpit and seemed so much interested that I spoke directly to them. I besought them to give up their old ways and to come unto Christ. I had never talk- ed so before. The occasion was a great one and I felt its inspiration. The next morn- ing there came the dreadful news that an excursion train that had brought many hundreds to our meeting the night before had been wrecked on a bridge, and scores of souls had gone forth to meet their God. Later, a man, who escaped from the wreck, told me that just before the train went off the bridge he had passed those five young men as they stood on a platform. They were discussing whether or not to give up their ways of wickedness in obedience to my call. In another moment they had all been plunged into the great hereafter.” Mr. Moody followed his address with a brief prayer and then the choir and audi- ence sang “Christ Receives the Sinful Man.” Mr. Moody told the Christians in the audi- ence that they might go then if they de- sired, but that there was to be a short prayer meeting held, to which he invited all who were not Christians. While about two hundred of the people moved to the doors, Miss Carrie Kidweli sang ‘“‘Come, ye Disconsolate,” with the choir doing the chorus. Mr. Moody asked for silent prayer and Rev. Joseph T. Kelly prayed verbally after a moment. Miss Kidwell came to the front of the platform, and, with Prof. Foster's accompaniment, sang @ solo in @ style that lifted the wate oo heard her. The song was “. ost Persuaded,” and Dr. Hamlin took the title as the text of his brief remarks in exhorting those in front of him to give up their old ways. Mr. Moody followed with an earnest prayer and then sent the ushers among the people with cards and pencils to get the names of those who desired to enroll themselves as workers. The Overflow Meetings. The overflow meetings last night were held in the Assembly and Mt. Vernon churches, which were both crowded. The meeting at Assembly Church was under the direction of Rev. Dr. Little, the pastor of the church. , Mr. Sankey was there, but did not take paft in the speaking, as the list- eners have become fond of having him do, but after singing the hymn, “Some one at last shall the cross lay down, shall you, shall I?” he left to attend the second over- flow meeting at the Mt. Vernon Place Church. Rev. Dr. Power of Vermont Avenue Chris- tian Church began the service at Assembly Church by a talk on Christ the Savior and Son of God. Rev. Dr. Hershey followed with a talk on the great moral responsibility attaching to the opportunity presented by the present revival. The meeting was closed with a solo by Mr. Farren Young, the choir leader of Assembly Church, who sang “Just as I am, without one plea.” The Afternoon Gathering. Congregational Church seemed to have shrunken in the afternoon, for the crowds were far too large for it. So the evangelists decided to hold their afternoon meetings henceforth in Convention Hall, as was an- nounced both in the church and the hall. After the solo by Mr. Sankey, “I Shall Be Satisfied,” the congregation was led in prayer by Rev. E. Hez Swem of the Second Baptist Church, and after the choir with the congregation had sung the familiar gospel hymn, “Some time I will under- stand,” a second prayer was offered by Rev. Theron Outwater of Kendall Chapter Bap- tist Church. A little before 3 Mr. Moody announced No. 177. As the last notes died away Mr. Moody raised his hands for silent prayer. Then the voice of Dr. Wilson was raised in an audible petition, and after he had invoked the divine blessing on the meeting and on the speaker Mr. Moody took up his sermon to the Christian workers, on whom he relied for much of the ultimate result of the night services at the hall. a Ingenious and Persevering. “Paul Jones,” the athletic young collegian who started Monday to win a wager by go- ing around the world and earning $5,000 in twelve months, left the Boston Press Club at 2 yesterday afternoon for the Bos- ton Tavern clad in a suit manufactured cut of old wrapping paper. At the Boston Ta ern his total assets were $2.32. He expend- ed $1.25 for a blanket and 6 cents for needles and thread and manufactured a sort of a toga. At a big clothing store he re- ceived $10 for the paper suit and purchased a complete outfit for $8.98. He then got a job to wait on table in a restaurant, near by, and many people paid 5 cents apiece to shake hands with him. He made a contract with a firm to wear an advertising placard the remainder of the day for $10. — +02 A gas jet at the residence of Mrs. L. L.

The Indiana Lincoin League of Republi- can Clubs held its annual convention at Indianapolis yesterday, re-electing Marcus R. Sulzer of Madison president, and R. E. Mansfield of Muncie secretary. In the evening a mass meeting was held, at which ex-President Harrison made a speech. He said: “Mr. President and fellow citizens—There are some people who hold that an ex-Presi- dent should be a political deaf mute. (Laughter.) I do not accept that theory. “The present condition of our country is not one of prosperity. We were recently prosperous, and the recent prosperity we enjoyed was not due to any man, but to a great policy that had been adopted and put into law and long maintained. The present distress which we enjoy is not due to any man, but, as I think, to the imminent threat of a reversal of the old policy and the in- stitution of a new one. “I am not one of the ancient land- marks, but my memory easily runs back to a time when Thomas A. Hendricks and Joseph E. McDonald were representative Indiana democrats. I have heard my es- teemed and learned friend, Mr. McDonald, propound the democratic view of the tariff. He said that it was the accepted principle of the democratic party that the expenses of the government should be raised by customs duties, and that it was only proper and right that in laying these duties they should be imposed upon such articles and in such a way as to give incidental protection to fhe American manufacturer and the laborer. “That was the old democratic doctrine. If it were applied now, if the Wilson bill had been constructed on these lines, it would not have been so hurtful, because the present necessities of the government are such, the demand is for such a large sum to meet our annual expenditures, that if this sum were now to be collected by customs duties and those duties im- posed by men who had no theories to exploit, and who were sincerely friendly to the American manufacturer and laborer, we might get along pretty well. “But there has come a new gospel, and @ new creed has been adopted by the democratic party; and it seems to be now the theory that all protection is uncon- stitutional, and that it is better to resort to exceptional, extraordinary, and even odious methods of direct internal tax than to derive the necessary revenues from importations. “It is generally accepted now as a right principle that our city councils, our county commissioners, our state legislatures should all legislate to create work for the un- employed, You may read in the same news- paper on one page an appeal to the city council to appropriate money to inaugurate a public work to give employment to the unemployed, and on another an article favoring the proposed system of tariff reduction that closes American mills. “The republican theory has been all along that it was right to so legislate as to provide work, employment and comfort to the American workingman. We believe that the national government has a duty in this respect as well as the cit and the board of county commissioners, and that duty is best discharged by so legislating that American milis can keep their fires going.” Unrivaled as s linament, Salvation GiL council | THE WOOL INTERESTS. An Elaborate Report Upon Wool ané_ Its Manufactures. In answer to a resolution of Congress, Mr. Worthington C. Ford, chief of the bureau of statistics, Treasury Department, has sent to that body an elaborate report upon “Wool and the manufactures of wool.” Much attention has naturally been paid to the wool interests of the United States, ‘The increase in production in foreign coun- tries, especially in Australia, South America and Africa, has been far greater than in the United States. While the American has trebled since 1860, the Australian has increased ten-fold, that of America nine-fold and that of South five-fold. The report shows that the year 1892 gave the wool producing interests aE even the most favored countries, as Aus tralia, a set back. It says: “That the sheep raising interests world are passing through a period pression is not to be denied. The of wools have reacted upon the by reducing profits derived from diminishing the temptation to roduction. Were this di remedies would apply; but it is eral, and affects those countries where the advantages for sheep rajsing excel, as well as those where wool growing is a secondary matter and even a by-product rather than an industry.” in conclusion, Mr. Ford sets forth numer- ous propositions resultant from his observa- tions. No commercial and industrial nation can adequately supply itself with wool; no other nation of commercial or in | importance imposes as high duties on wool | and woolens as the United States; no legis- lative stint of prohibition can maintain | prices in the face of the increase 4 world’s supply of wool; the free en! foreign woois has not destroyed the industry in other countries; wool controlled by the same economic | 48 other interests, and that the present de- pression in the wool industry is general, not local. ————_- e+_______ Transfers of Real Estate.
