The Rev. Dr. Adams pastor of the First Congre-
gational Church in Fall River. Mass, is one of the
most prominent men in that town. but he has
offended great many people by his opposition to the
late revival which stirred up the churches there He
felt the pressure Of public opinion in his church
| and out of it enough to make an explanation of his
conduct last Sunday week. in which he declared that
he objected the machinery that they bring and not
to the evangelsts themselves and that those who at
tended the services worshipped the evangelist much
| more than they worshpped God. This explanation
has made matters worse rather than better, since
great many of his own congregation sympathized
with the eyangelists and attended their meetings.
There may be vacant pulpit in that town by and by.
