nesday night .The interest manifested
has bees of the very beat throughout
the services. -The meetings have been
eminently aucceasful in the principal
purpose for which they were Inaugur

people to a better knowledge of the
-fact that the oh jrch can work shoul

the evangelization of the world. There
haa beeu very little demonstration, but
that a great deal of sound and sober

of whom threw a club which hit him
iii the face inflicting an ugly wound
over bis right eye and which may re-
-sultln loss of the eye sight. He be
lieves he had sufficient evidence to
establish the guilt of Jeff Hannah and

with a burnt-umber complexion ap
peared at one of our churches and gai
out the information that he was an
Assyrian who was in this country
studying with the lutentlon of prepar

to his native land. Naturally he was
welcomed by Iho good people, who
made much of him. Alas, for the
frailty of the humau mind! In the af-
timoon peaitlve evidence was pre
duced showing him to be a pretender.
When confronted with the charge
he confessed it, and stated that he wes
a peddler. He was a shrewd' and InteP
igent youug man and distinguished
himself In the morning Sunday school
by hit information and the excellent
points he brought out on the leston.
