Hidden, the evangelist., must 'iave been gratified with the demonstration of affection toward hiim a.t his farewell service in the Mission last night. The place was crowded with people, who vied with one another in their efforts to show their regard for the man who has preached to them tenderly and .who ~has gone in and out of the Mission. and wherever a field for service of fered. with a smile on his face and the old, sweet gospel message on his lips. He was presented with flowers, given a rising vote of thanks. people came forward with money to temp.t 'him to prolong his stay, they tender red him an informal receptsion, and wh~en he asked how many would try to so live as to meet him in heaven, the audience rose en masse to his call, which striking demonstration so affected t'he evangelist that he was unable to speak further. He resum ed his seat in tears, and the e were few dry eyes in the house.-Lewiston (Maine) Sun. As a Temperance Speaker. Dr. Hidden is an easy, fluent speaker, using chiefly the conversa tional method, in a sort of heart to heart talk with his 'hearers. At times he has -the air and manner of a law yer pleading at the bar; then, :he brea-ks suddenly into a beautiful word picture: and an instant later is relating some touching incident that causes his voice to choke ~and the tears to stream do.wn his cheeks, while sobs are heard all over t-he place. There are passages in which he is keenly sarcastic or caustic, but he is never funny and makes no at tempt to amuse. The talk is plainly a serious matter with him. and his evident sincerity wins his hearers and holds their attention from start to finish.-Newburyport (Mass.) News. ,In Augusta, Georgia.

Be on hand the first ( store keeps faith with t inarkable man. was the comment of one of the prominent Spartans in the great crowd w'hich thronged the hall of the Y. M. C. A. on Sunday. 'his comment was. voiced with em phasis which conclusively showed the tremendous impression made by the gifted speaker. Dr. Hidden came to S.partanburg unknown, but it is safe o say that a well advertised return -isi would easily fill the largest hall n this city. A man of splendid ental endowment, he has by pains taking study acquired an ease of anner and grasp of thought which preeminently makes him a speaker both of power and popularity. When istening to his eloquent reasoning ne does not wo::der that as an infidel pleaker~ he drew thousands to his lec tures. It is easy to understand how the conversion of such a man should have created a stir among all Chris tian pe.;pkI. For an honr and fiye niute5 he held spellbound :his great udience of me.n in the Y.

The address at Spartanburg was a masterpiece. For over an hour he held spell bound an audience of men which completely packed the hall. It is doubtful if such an addsress ,bas ever before been gie'n in that city. A deep thinker, ith a superb scientific training, Dr. Hidden possesses the personal mag netism which enthralls his hearers. His amazing experiences give to his words an earnestness of expression born of deep spiritual sincerity which Iattracts and convinces.

Ekluad Engel, in a lecture recently delivered before the members of a iterary society in Hamburg, oh " The Legend of Oharlotte von Stein,'' tore o pieces all the illusion which clus tered around her name. He showed by old letters and other documents that the woman to who Goethe had written 1.500 letter which portrayed the innermost thoughts of his mind nd heart despised all tihat was no ble. She called all literary people fools.'' and made sport of them. When Schiller died she congratulated his family, saying that it was better to live alone than to be compelled to abide ~in t he neighborhood of "un natural company.'' The lecturer end ed the discourse by saying that Goc thes letters to Charlotte will now e read " with feelings of sympatihy for the poet's boundless imagination which forned a goddes out of this othing.''
