la noted for her protests .gainst having
tier children taken from her by the
.: juvenile,, court," la on trial In tno state

' which ;,was swinging a heavy sledge-
hammer on the head of Patrolman G. B.
Murray. ' This time ah Is Tjelns- de

While Patrolman Murray was on the
stand yesterday, Mrs. Oe.Clcco broke in
with a tirade against Jndre Cleland.
who 4s trying -the case-- Just what she
was talking about no one could tell,
but It required the combined efforts of
her attorney, the Italian Interpreter,
Matron Cameron of the county jail and
another woman to quiet . Tier. Judge
Cleland told the woman's ' attorney that
bis client must Keep ouiet. The attor
ney nromlsed to do his beat to control
her, arid during the remainder of the
session' she was comparatively quiet.
When Patrolman Murray received the
blow on the- bead he had cone to arrest
Mrs. Ie Cicco on a warrant that , had
been Issued on complaint of her . ex
husband, Tony De Cicco. Tony 1
blamed by his former wife for separat
ing her from, her children, and whenever
they meet she mattes things interesting
for him. When the policeman arrested
her she1 pretended-not to understand,
and he went with her to a place on Stark
. street- where Italian laborers were at
work.- On of the Italians explained
. matters - to her. . -While . the , officer's
back was turned Mrs. L Cief.o picked
up a sledgehammer and staggered him
' with a blow on the head. With the
-strength of an Amason she fought un
til she had been handcuffed, when she
went quietly enough to Jail. That was
last summer, and .ever since she has
been awaiting; trial. -' v r
It Is claimed by the defense that when
the woman learned that sue was belni
'arrested on complaint of her husbam
she was aroused to frensy, and that she
becomes irresponsible when her domes
tic troubles are referred to. The defense
offered 'several witnesses in support of
this theory, but only a little or their
testimony was-admitted. Muoh of the
testimony on this line .was shut out on
objection by District Attorney Cameron.-'

One of the novel features of the trial
was an effort to prove the woman's In
sanity by reputation. H. H- Hawley, a

.Washington, Nor. 7, When Oypsy
Smith, the English evangelist, led 15,
000 persona through the streets of
Washington at midnight on a "march
against sin," he was quite as much re
Joiced over the awakening of the church
people as over the success of the as
sault on ' the devil. 1 Revivalists and
militant evangelists have an answer to
the question so much discussed by the
pastors of American churches: "Why
are the people drifting away from the
church?" That answer is. "Because th
churches lack enterprise and fall to
alva their neonln thlne-s to do."
If there Is a characteristic peculiar
to the social life or today it is ex
preajrld in the phrase it now!'
This la an irt of nz-ttrm. The neorjle (18

want to do things themselves.
"Do it now!" cries Gypsy Smith and
IB. 000 WaAhinartdnlana follow him on
his "march against sin" into quarters
of the city where they never expected
to be. So it was in other cities where
Gypsy Smith has been preaching. Ao

are the things which make the preach
ing of this unlettered Romany Rye so
marvelous.
Billy Sunday and Others.
Billy Sunday, the fastest base runner
ever Known to proressionai Daseoaiiuuin,
has been an evangelist for many years
and is more popular and errective now
than ever before. Billy Sunday
preaches, the gospel Just like he used
to run bases at a recora-Dreamng pace.

ers do not pretend that there Is a great
revival now "in progress in the United
States, but they hope to bring one about
by preacning mis gospei oi ocuon.
Australia was swept with a revival

In the mountain, Billy Sunday says:
"And the devil says to Jesus, 'Are you

yes,' the devil comes right back at him:

me. Oet busy with turning these rocks
Into bread and have a sauare meal.' "

to be slangy If, he does things despite

Leaving aside all question of religious
dogma, and regardle&s of what one may
believe, it must .be admitted that the
purpose of religious revivals Is to do
good, and that great revivals have left
their impress upon the history of man.
Abelard. St. Francis of Asslnl Wlcllff.
Luther. Savonarola. Whltefleld. Wesley
all were revivalists. They did not
agree as to doctrines, and the charac
ter of their missions differed widely,
But they all got results. The great
religious revivals of American history
have reflected the changes of social
conditions with unerring faithfulness.

but the effect was to break down nar

His great revival so affected the lives
of the Ensrllsh oenple that the ordinary
