Mr. Martin. "Moody and Sankey were
on their llrst visit to England, and had
been holding meetings at Liverpool.
One day they drove out to a large
gypsy camp near the city. The curi

and one black-haired boy stood near
the buggy looking Intently at Moody.
Sankey noticed him. and asked him If
he weald like to be a preacher like
Moody. He said. Tel. and Fan key re
plied. "Mi ell. some day you may be.'
Years afterward, when Sanfley had be

work.
"Tou eaat take a man of a years

OREGON AFTER WILDE
REQUISITION PAPERS FOB PRO
MOTER ISSUED.
Deputy Sheriff Leonard Leaves for
.San Francisco to Arrest Alleged
Embezile-r Fight Expected.
Armed with what Is declared by Dis
trict Attorney Cameron to be "the pret
tiest set of requisition papers ever Is
sued In this atate." Deputy Sheriff Leon
ard left last night for San Diego, Cal.,
to bring back Louis Wilde, under In
dictment for his alleged share In the
wrecking of the Oregon Trust & Sav
ings Company Bank, four years ago.
District Attorney Cameron Is holding
himself In readiness to follow the
Deputy Sheriff if any fight Is made by
Wilde, but he believes that the defen
dant will give up when he finds that the
papers present no flaw which he can
attack.
Every contingency, says the District
Attorney, has been provided for In the
preparation of the papers. Especial at
tention haa been given to warding off
any plea that Wilde might set up for
protection by the statue of limitations.
The papers set forth In detail that the
defendant has been out of the state
except for short visits: that he has not
In more than three years had a domicile
here and that to obtain the benefit of
the limitation he must have been pres
ent in the Jurldlctlon for three full
years after the time when proceedings
might have been commenced against
him.
Developmenta In California have
shown that Wilde stands well with the
officials of his county, the Sheriff at
San Diego having refused to arrest him
without the Governor's warrant. If
attempt Is made to obtain his release
on a writ of habeas oorpus. District
Attorney Cameron will proceed at once
to San Diego to fight the action. He
has prepared a host of citations and as
serts that his position Is Impregnable.
Deputy Sheriff Leonard will go to
Sacramento and present his papers to
Governor Johnson, who It Is believed
will Issue a Governor's warrant, on
which Wilde may be arrested. If no
delay Is met by the Deputy Sheriff he
will reach Portland with his prisoner
In about a week.
