SIOO,OOO Raised in Philadel phis
Thursday Night by Moody ana
Sankey,

Mr. Moody said: "Iou remember
that it was announced, last light, tina
we would have q free-will offering tc-
night 10 help pay 5or the Young
Mems Christian Association building.
The Centennial is coming on, and
that building ought to be finished and
paid for, so as to command the admir-.
alton of all those foreigners. Now,
tonight, we want to raise $2S0,00
(Merriment.) Don't you laugh I'm in
earnest. There's men here that could
give the whole amount if they wanted
to. (MerrimentD Don't you laugh;
we mean business. If you don't want
to give, don't; the Lord can get along
without your money; but if you feel il
a privilege to give, why we'd like to
have it. Now let's go to work and
pray to God TO give us $3.50, ,O00."
Mr.. Moody exhibited diamond ring.
which he said had been contributed
bv the father of a son who had been
converted at theie meetings, and for
which Mr.. Moody said he had been
offered $500 for that day. The ushers
at his orders, began going among the
audience, holding before each person
six-foct poles, from the ends of which
nung little bags made of red musliD.
5uddenly Mr.. Moody's voice was
heard above the din, announcing.
"Three men have given $70,800."-
Applause. "Seventy Thousand
piece?" was asked. "No, no; alto
gether. We want $210, 900 more" A
number of ushers having filled their
bags, marched up and took their
stand around the pulpit, holding aloft
before the people their bundles .0f
"boxes," which gave
them the appearance of Roman lictors.
"a party has offered thousand dol
lars for the ring" shouted Mr.. Moody,
and everybody clapped hands. The
ushers continued describing semi par
abolas with their "Mussulman stan
dards" for about twenty minutes, and
having placed their treasures in secur-
ity beneath the eyes of the evangelist
Mr.. Moody tsaid: "Now, if there's
been neglected, if they'll
only let US know, wen pass the bags
around to them" The choir began
singing 1--WE shall meet beyond the
river" and had finished one stanza,
when MIR. Moody interrupted them,
and shouted, "five thousand dollars
i nare"
1t was estimated that $10G, 900 had
had been raised.

Send Nor. Troop. TO tn. Front.

The battle of the Rosebud has taught
General Crook prudence, the disaster
on the Little Big Horn has para
lyzed General Terry, and both are
convinced that they cannot move until
they are reinforced, Crooks boast that he is
able to whip the hostile Indians with his
present force to the contrary notwithstand-
ing. We miss from the latest utterances Of
the General and Lieutenant General the
same serene confidence in the ability of the
troops now in the field to overcome their
savage foes. The fact that over two hundred
men have been ordered West from the forts
in the Narrows shows that the necessity of
sending all available forces to the front is
making itself felt at the Army Headquarters,
but the movement is not so general as it
might and should be. Who or what stands
in the way? This is question apart from
politics. The HERALD does not desire to
stand before the country as a prophet
of evil, and shares to the full
the confidence of Generals Sherman and
Sheridan in the daring spirit of our handful
of boys in blue. 1t is, however, but the
merest justice to our soldiers that they
should not be sent forward in such limited
numbers as to invite disaster More troops
are needed. corporal's guard to hoist the
flag is all that is needed in the Eastern forts
and at the Southern stations. When the re-
Inducements now on their way to Crook
and Terry have joined these officers the
total of their forces will fall short of four
thousand men, and there are probably five
thousand hostile Indian braves between
them, flushed with victories, brave and
cunning, with perfect knowledge of the
advantages of the country and with skill
to use them. Each of these commanders
should have at least five thousand men, be-
cause as the campaign is at present con-
Quoted, with the commands one hundred
miles apart, more than two thousand men
cannot at one time be brought against
the enemy. Why not, then, send three
thousand men to Crook and three thou
sand to Terry? Why not move ten
thouand men in all into the Big Horn
country, so as to give Crook and Terry five
thousand each to whip the 'hostiles' and
leave three or four thousand to stop the run
aways. General Crook talks of ending the
campaign ''with one crushing blow" He
thinks he can do this with the Fifth cavalry,
in addition to his present forces. We hope
if he again risks q general engagement he
may justify the trust his superiors SO peril
naciously confide in him. But we hold it is
the merest justice to the gallant soldiers and
the rich country they fight for that Crook
should not be permitted to invite second
defeat. The remedy is simple. Send all
the troops in the East and South, where they
are not needed, to the ground where they
are.

GRANT AND HAYEs.-The Tribune reports
that Grant is not in the best of humor with
Hayes, and that he thinks the letter of Hayes
was in bad taste. We are inclined to agree
with the President. Considering that Grant
will be a shining name in our history when
Hayes is forgotten in a heap of mouldering
Presidents, the republican candidate might
have made an allusion to him as n second
Washington. or something of that kind. But
of course Hayes had his troubles, Carl
Schurz among them, ready to leap over into
Tammany if Grant was complimented.
Hayes, however, if elected, can make it oil
right in his inaugural address, Then he
will not care about Carl Schurz. Grant
should not give way to his temper. He owes
too much to the republican party to war
upon its ticket.

THE EARTHQUAKE AT VIENNA, Austria, indi-
Gates that great subterranean disturbance
is affecting the foundations of the European
continent. Lately Corinth, in Greece, was
severely shaken by earthquake shocks, and
now we find the phenomenon repeating
itself nearer the interior of the continent.
We shall not be surprised if old vesuvius and
Etna treat us to a volcanic duet within q
short time, for the great caldron of molten
matter beneath the earth's crust is develop
ing high pressure, which the above named
safety valves will soon indicate.

The WEATHER IN ENGLAND, according to
the latest kilograms, has been excessively
warm during the last four days The tenn
perature rose to ninety-six degrees in the
shade, and many cases of sunstroke have
occurred in London. This remarkable heat
in country usually gifted with temperate
summer climate is to us easily understand
able after our own experiences during the
past three weeks. The atmospheric condi-
tions which are collectively termed "the
weather" move northeastward, and are ex-
perienced on each part of the earths sur
face lying in the weather track successively,
from west to east. The present heat wave
will pass over the British Islands to Norway
and Northern Russia, carrying warmth into
the Polar regions north of the Asiatic conti-
nent. Icebergs will be detached from the
frozen masses in the Asiatic Polar seas, and
will be found drifting southwark through
Behring Strait during the coming few weeks.

AN ARGUMENT FOR RAPID TRANSIT.
we hear of thousands of our poor people
compelled to live about the Five Points and
on the East side in narrow streets and ten
ement houses, when we hear how they hud-
die on the sidewalks and cellar doors and
sleep under the stars, we think how differ
ent it might be had we rapid transit. Then
would these hard working honest, virtuous
people find homes in Westchester or beyond
Brooklyn. Then we might introduce that
benefcent Philadelphia custom of building
small houses, which would rent for ten
dollars or fifteen dollars month, where
every one could have his own home and all
the conveniences of modern life. In this
respect Philadelphia surpasses any city in
the world, and wins the proud name of the
City of Homes New York might earn the
same title if rapid transit enabled our poor
ones to go from the Battery to Yonkers or
to New Rochelle in a half hour. There is
the next step to be taken in metropolitan
civilization. Itnever came home 80 earnestly
to us as now in this terrible time when we
lose as many lives daily from heat and dis
comfort as if we had the plague.

LET Us PROTECT CoNEY ISLAND. We honor
the faithful officer who has taken hold of the
garbage bumpers and compelled them to
leave Coney Island alone This beach is
one of the blessings of New York. Those of
us WHO can leave the city have Saratoga,
Newport. Long Branch. Coney Island is
the poor mans retreat. 1t is within easy
access Of the great cities of New York and
Brooklyn. We read of. thousands going
there every day. The beach is one of the
finest as it is one of the safest on our coast.
When we hear Of all the pleasure and advan-
tage of this coast being destroyed by garbage
bumpers we cannot speak too strongly of
the outrage. The utmost pains should be
taken to protect these seaside resorts, espe-
cially when they are SO easy of access to the
poor.

The Custer Monument.

The contributions to the Custer monument
fund have now reached the sum of So, 1914 OF,
an important part of this being in small
amounts This is what we prefer. A monu-
ment to Custer, to be of the significance that
ought to attach to it, should be built with
small contributions from many sources.
Congress could not make the work SO
national in character by an appropriation for
the purpose as would large amount con
the Republic. Few of our people are SO poor
that they cannot contribute a mite to
the perpetuation of the memory of this
noble soldier and his companions, and
none are SO rich that they should
fail to do honor to noble deed nobly
enterprise is the inertia-a failure to contrib
ute small sums in the expectation that
other persons will contribute large ones.
Small contributions are wanted because it is
every mans mite which ought to rear mon
ument to the brave man whose death we all
mourn. In our news dispatches this morn
ing there is additional evidence of the bad
treatment Custer received at the hands of
his superiors, but General Terry's compli-
ment to his usefulness is not so grand o
testimonial to his worth as the unselfishness
of his conduct under the most trying con-
ditions. We cannot do too much to honor
the memory Of such o man, and every Amer
lean ought to do his share in marking the
depth of the popular grief over his sacrifice.

JEWELL WELCOMED HOME The recep-
tion given to Governor Jewell by his friends
in Connecticut shows the esteem in which
he is held by his people. 1t shows, too, the
feeling as to Grants tyrannical course in
driving him out of the Cabinet. If the Presi-
dent had discovered on the part of Jewell
any evidence of treachery he should have
made it known, and his Minister would have
gone home in night sleeping car, and not
in the daytime, with bands of music. As it
now stands Jewell wins. 1t is mistake to
doubt the people. This blunder Grant
frequently makes, and never so much as in
his recent removals.

The WAR IN TURKEY possesses almost its
entire Importance in the danger that it may
at any time involve the great Powers in the
struggle The effort Roumania is said to be
making to have that part of the Treaty of
Paris abrogated which prevents her from
putting armed vessels on the Danube is ex-
tremely suggestive. It is well known that
Prince Charles is under German influence,
and as any attack upon the Treaty of Paris
will meet with the sympathy of Russia it
looks as though the Turco-Servian war will
be taken advantage of in ways that will
tempt England sorely to break the
peace. Without departing from the an
nounced policy of non-intervention a
great many things may be done which will
strain English forbearance to the utmost;
and it is becoming plain that she will be
called upon TO place war limit in other
directions than an invasion of Turkish ter
ritory by the Russians, or allow great
many things that she fought for twenty-five
years ago to go by default. The war news is
confined to comparatively unimportant en-
gagements.
