HUNDREDS LINE SAWDUST TRAIL Two Hundred Seventy-Eight Hit the Trail in Response to Sudden In- vitation to Come Fordward. DRAMATIC SCENE AT THE TAB “Billy” Sunday opened his famous | sawdust trail at 9:16 Wednesday, at the conclusion of the regular service, | which was attended largely by the working girle and women of the city. ‘y Two hundred and seventy-eight men and women signed the printed cards, while as many more shook the evangelist's hands during the trafl- hitting period of the evening. i Miss Bertha Kraft of Weosho, Mo., working in the home of James Me- | Kenna, 415 North Twentieth street, was the first Omaha woman to hit the trall, while T.

After his discourse on the sub- joot of backsliding, Mr. Sunday asked those who wanted to be remembered In his prayers to hold up their hands. Nearly everybody held up their hands and then the evangelist offered a short prayer. “This 18 a magnificent gathering of womanhood,” was an observation made by “Billy” Sunday. Then he asked those ‘who (wanted salvation to come forward and shake his hand. That was the cue. The ushers and secretaries of the trafl immediately fell into line to open the trall and keep things moving. “Just as T Am" was the selection sung by the choir, followed by other songs. ©C. A. Gose and Frank E. Clark took their posts immediately in front of Mr. Sun- day and as the trall-hitters came forward they expedited matiers by raising the outstretched hands and passing the pen itents on to the ushers who placed them in the front rows of seats. The evan- ®elist’s stronuosity has not been excelled during his Omaha campaign. He braced exhorting the backward ones to move forward and urging the ushers and sec- § 13 i - prsof rm Weather in State Drop Corn Prices With reports from New York that large quantities had been bought for ex- port to Burepe, wheat on the Omaha market advanced a cent yesterday and #old all the way from 9 cents to $1.04 per all the way from 98 cents up to §1.04 per bushel.

It concerns the corn crop and reads as fol-i lows: “WABHINGTON, Sept. 15~-Owing to the generally backward state of this year's corn crop in many of the northern, but | | tmportant sections of the belt, there is danger of injury to the crop by killing | trosts, the occurrence of which may be expected at any time. It s, therefore, |tmportant that every effort possible be | | made to secure good seed for next year's crop. ' Where any last year's corn is left | it should be gone over and the best ears saved for seed. Moreover, as corn ma- tures unevenly it s possible to secure seed from the early ears before the rest of the erop is mature. lui-fiay Wonder for Gorns, “‘Gets-It” The Big Surprise for Corn Owners, It's Sure, Simple, Safe, Quick, Listen to the wee story of “Gets-It,” the world's greatest corn remedy.
