Tbe picture shows a detachment td oooooooo ooo o o o o BILLY SUNDAY ol ? oooooooo o o ft o The Tabernacle Evangelist has beeu cutting a wide swarth in this State of Pennsylvania for tho past year. He Is called tho Tabernacle Evangelist be cause he will not hold his meetings In any sort of building save a taberna nacle built for the purpose. Indeed, only such' a structure can acconio date the crowds. He does not go to a city unless- all th? churches, and pastors will go Into the meeting. He does not have to.- He is besieged by scores of urgent invitations. .. When Scranton, Pa., wanted." him to come, there one of tho Presbyterian churches Ute ls a Presbyterian) would ? not join in the invitation. The commit tee went to Pittsburg to see Billy. Ho looked over the list Of churches and then said "Where is that Second Pres byterian church otf this thine?'* - The committee said, "They refuse to KO in to it. "Well,"- said Billy, "you go on back and tell that church to go on to hell where they arc booked for. PU not come tc Scranton." Tho com mittee then went back and "nat up" With the''church and they repented and "came acroes." So Billy went. Thal church and its pastor bufoto the meei, lng waa over, was shouting. sky high for Billy and hlswork. He was there seven weeks ann those,/wbo hit tho sawdust trail numbered 17,555. Of these 3,334 were minors, 1.500 were church members who reconsecrated themselves to God- Thc remaining 12,175 were persons not affiliated with any church. Converts from the city proper were 9,059 of whom 5,542 were men. The various denominar Hons gained members ! as follows: Methodist 5.279: Presbyterians 2,-061; Baptists 2,198; Congregational 781; Episcopal 434; Lutheran 408; Catholic 326;'Christian and tho rest of th? slmll&r societies 327. The Sunday meeting in Pittsburgh resulted in 26,000 additions to the churches. Btll preached Hi" old time gospel with groat power and pushes the obligation of church membership to the last ditch. The Aftermath. The aftermath or his meeting ls great. T*-~e boen In towns two years after bis campaigns. I've seen as tho aftermath a thousand men who were converted In his meetings banded to gether as personal workers for soul saving. They were evangelizing all tho year round. At Wilksbuty, Pa., one - oig ciub of mun ?r several hun dred were converted, lt had been a booie treating, .gabbling, 55IW??S club-as most cf them are. Now they met to study the bible, hold prayer meetings, etc. And no new members can get In it save such a-; the mem bers of that club' have Iel to Christ So lt ls called /ThoConverVs Club" and they aro coming all the time. Nothing Uko thia work has ever trans pired in American history. There ere many grimpa or Evangelists all over the northland holding such taberna-! clo meetings. They are not so prom I - net as Sunday, btit In proportion to the sise of the towns where these meetings were pulled off, the results are proportionately as good. Josephus Daniels.

For cows can be/at times, most per verse critters .
