A Review OF the Harrison Meetings.
- Church Announcements for To-Day.
To the Editor of the Globe:
Rev. Thos. Harrison, the evangelist, COM
menced his revival labors at the Jackson
street Methodist church, in this city, on the
1st of May and closed June IL. The church
was full the first night, and conversions took
place at every service, from the first to the
last, at the rate of from one to twenty a
night. Nearly every night the large altar
was crowded with seekers. Three hundred
and fifty different persons were at the altar as
seekers, and fully 800 have been converted.
Many of these were already members of diff
ferent churches. German Methodists, next to
our own churches, shared most largely
in the blessings of the revival. But Swedes
and Norwegians were greatly benefited also.
Members of other denominations than our
own constantly attended and participated in
the meetings and were greatly refreshed. At
times the crowds were so great and the peo-
pie SO anxious to obtain admission that the
doors were locked to protect those inside. The
order was exceptionally good. The revival
was far reaching in its power. Strangers pass
ing through the city were awakened and
brought to the Saviour. Persons from five
different states were at the altar and seven
nationalities were kneeling at one
time seeking pardon. One man came
200 miles from Iowa TO seek the Lord, and
went home justified. a medical doctor from
Baltimore attending the American Medical
convention in this city,was IN the last.meeting
and started for the heavenly world. Only
three students in Hamline university remain
unconverted. In some of the meetings the
manifest action Of divine power was remark
able, awning the people into profoundest
reverence. Many thrilling incidents occurred,
but they cannot be recorded here
nifcant exception the three daily papers OF
the city, gave full and friendly reports of the
meetings, thus spreading the good tidings.
The expenses were chiefly met by collection
| taken at each service. The people coutribu-
ted cheerfully and literally for this purpose.
About one hundred have thus far united with
Jackson Street church. Others will follow;
many will join other churches and some will
90 to other denominations.
Brother Harrison labored earnestly and
acceptably. His preaching was in demonstra-
ton Of the spirit. The church that invited
him heartily and cheerfully sustained him,
and will be glad to haye him return again in
the fall, which he will probably do. He has
won the esteem and affection of the church,
| and will long be remembered in our prayers
| May God bless and prosper the young man in
his great work of winning souls to Christ.

An Extraordinary Offer.

There are number of persons out of en-
ployment in every county, yet energetic men
willing to work do not need to be. Those
willing to work can make from 800 to $500
month clear, working for us in pleasant and
permanent business. The amount our agents
make varies, some making as high as $500 a
month, while others as low as 800, all de-
pending on the energy Of the agent. We have
an article of great merit. 1t should be sold to
every horsepower and pays over 100 per cent.
profit. Each sale is from &c. so to SO. One
agent in Pennsylvania sold thirty-two in two
days and cleared s64. An agent in New York
enough to work full day, and will do this
during the year can make from $4,000 to
$4,000 year. We only want one man IN
each county, and to him will give the ex-
elusive sale as long as he continues to work
faithfully for us. There is no competition,
and nothing like our invention made. Parties
having from 5000 to 81 900 to invest, can OBJ
tain q general agency for ten counties or
a state. ANY one can make an in
vestment of from s25 to $1,000 without the
least risk of loss, as our circulars will show
that those investing S25 can, after thirty
days. trial, return the goods unsold to US and
get their money back, If they do not clear at
least 500. They show that general agent
who will take ten counties and invest S216 can,
after trial OF ninety days, return all goods
unsold to US, and have money returned to
them if they fail to clear at least $3.50 in that
time. We are not paying salaries, but want
men willing to work and obtain as their pay
the profits of their energy. Men not willing
to work on our terms will not work on any.
Those meaning business will receive our large
descriptive circular, and extraordinary offer,
by enclosing a three cent stamp, with their
address. The first to comply with our terms
will secure the county or counties they may
wish to work. Address,

ces of the act. He is making money, but
at the same time he is sowing the seeds Of
sin and shame, and the devil will watch
that no seed be lost. The young
boy who assisted, and the clerks who
were witnesses received lesson in deceit
which may entail the loss of everything
best in this life, and of Heaven hereafter.
Into the account, too, must be taken
all whom they shall influence, and what
a sum of sin and shame results from that
unit of evil. If single act may do so
much good or evil, what must be the &C
cumulated labor of life. The power of
influence in receiving and communicating
can not be estimated. When John
Pound, the Portsmouth cobbler,
gathered about him the poor, ragged
children of the streets, and thus COM
menced the ragged schools of England,
he little dreamed to what his small class,
gathered about his bench, and whom he
taught, while mending shoes, would
lead. The extended system OF Sunday
schools, with its mighty influences for
good, is the wide spreading tree, whose
.Ieaves are gathered for the healing of
the nations" which sprang from so small
a seed. The ancient heather acknowl
edged the influence of other mems deeds
and lives. When the brave Prince Scan
derbeg was dead, the Turks, his enemies,
disinterred his body that they
might possess his bones: and
each one wore piece next to his heart
that he might secure some portion Of his
courage.
So on from those early years down to
the present time the deeds and words Of
men have power in determining the lives
of others. The student of Greek, as he
reads the dialogues of Plato, is inspired
by the noble words spoken by Socrates
more than two thousand years before.
The brave words of Patrick Henry, Glib
erty or DEATH" still ring in the ears and
thrill through the hearts of men. In this
manner is every one his brothers. keeper,
for good or Ill, for honor or shame, and it
is IN this momentous and solemn fact
that emo mans acts die utterly; that
though his body may resolve into dust
and air, his good or bad deeds will still
bring forth fruit after their kind,' that
the great peril and responsibility of hu-
man existence lies. "Be sure that for all
these things God will bring thee into
Judgment"

EXAMPLE.

And the Lord said to Cain, where is Abel,
thy brother? And he said, I know not; am l
my brothers Responsiveness Iv:9.
The home with its sacred relations and
affections is the nucleus around which
cluster all social relations. Mankind are
indeed one great family, and what affects
one member influences IN greater or less
degree the others. The Bible declares
that emo man liveth to himself" and all
things conclusively prove The fact, that
every act performed, or word uttered,
carries some weight in influencing others.
ssNo Individual in the universe stands
alone, heis component part of system
of natural dependencies; and by his sew
eral acts he either increases or diminishes
the sum of human good now and for
ever" If, as Mr.. Bobbage has written,
s'the air itself is one vast library, on
whose pages are written forever all that
man has ever said or whispered" what
records there must be of blasphemous
words, broken promises, unredeemed
pledges, and slanderous and obscene con-
versat1ons. And as these records pass from
one individual to another, bearing their
baneful influence, what an aftermath
of evil follows the utterance of wicked,
idle words. 1t is solemn thought that
a mans words are by their influence
being echoed and re-echoed to his shame
or glory That the oath spoken so care
lessly was lesson in profanity to those
who heard it, and the beginning of a
long record of disappearing, which, but
for that oath, had never been set down
for judgment by that God who has COM
manded, "Swear not at all" So do vile,
obscene words faint the moral atmos-
phere where they are spoken, injuring the
moral health of all who hear them, and
they in turn affect others, carrying
with them a train of consequences, the
end OF which may never be traced.
AS stone dropped into pool, covers
the whole surface with ripples, so a
spoken word sends out an ever widening
circle of influence The wise man said :
ga word spoken in due season - how
good IS it?'' a kind word falls like
blessing on the hearers, soothing sorrow
or turning away wrath, and awaking all
the best impulses of the heart, which
will, in turn, incite to other kind words
and deeds, and eternity alone will reveal
the results of one kind word. If words
are such powerful agents for good
or evil, what mighty factors are deedsl

question objected, and told his friend to .'stay
inside, and smoke. always do, when no ladies
are present." The two were apparently very
happy, in giving forth large and voluminous
emissions of tobacco smoke, until the inside
was murky with their puffings. Just then
three ladies entered the car, to breathe the
fetid atmosphere of these two serene indulg-
ers in the smoking weed. The ladies were
nearly strangled, as the accomplishing male
passengers had been before their
entrance. The smokers then retired to the
platform, having produced all the inside mis-
chief and inconvenience possible. No heed,
of course, was given to the card, "Gen-
tlemen not allowed to smoke in the
cars" these smokers not recognizing them
selves, probably, as belonging to the class in
Dictated. In passing, we will say it is but a
shabby compromise of the placard prohib-
tory rule, "No smokers allowed to in
dulge in cigar or pipe smoking on the outer
platforms Of horse cars: At every opening of
the door the smoke comes pour
ing in, and in the milder season
when doors and windows are opened, smok-
ing might as well be lndulged in, inside as
out. But smokers generally seem to be the
most unconcious persons going, and seem to
be entirely oblivious of the fact that they may
be incemmoding others, assuming it to be
apparently prescriptive right to seek their
own personal enjoyment, in serene disregard
of the comfort of others. In some instances,
even car drivers suck their pipes, while driv-
ing, adding to the platform passengers clouds
of smoke. This infraction of rule of de.
cency and propriety on the part OF drivers
ought to be regarded as good cause for their
instant expulsion from the ownership

terdict which Shakespeare put upon the re-
moval of his body. He died, and was buried
in Stratford-upon-Avon, where he was born.
He was born April %, 1864, and died April
%, 1916, aged 50 years. How much, and what
an undying fame he accomplished in half a
century. It is remarkable that he
was born and died on the same day of the
same month. The inscription on his monu-
ment in Stratford is as follows:
O5iit Ammo Domini, 1916.

He was buried on the 25th of April, and the
record of that event is placed among the
burials in the following manner:

A PHILADELPHIA smoker removed the cigar
FROM his mouth on entering horse car, but
insisted on retaining it in his hand. The con-
ductor warned him to throw it away, as
the smoke from it was offensive to the women
passengers, and finally elected him by force.
BE sued the company for damages, but the
verdict is against him, the court charging
the jury that he was nuisance which the
conductor had right to abate. A just de-
cision, no doubt. The incident reminds the
writer of the following case: A bifurcated,
pantalooned individual, I've will not say a
man or gentleman in certain city not a
thousand miles away, was in the habit of
taking horse car in the morning to go to
his daily pursuits, and always brought with
him his blazing cigar, and when no women
were in the car, would always occupy the inside.
One morning in mid-winter, with warm
stove, and closely closed doors and windows,
he appeared with his inevitable lighted cigar,
accompanied by smoking friend, who, more
considerate, proposed to stand on the outer

A Scheme to Shorten the Passage Be
tween America and Europe.

Nelc York Special to Chicago Tribune.
The desire to shorten the time of pas
sage between this country and Europe
has given rise to scheme for furnish
ing continuous railroad transportation
from all parts of this country to some
port on the eastern coast of Newfound-
land, and steamship transportation from
there to the western coast of Ireland, a
distance of only 1 $40 miles 1t is claim.
ed by its advocates that this method of
transportation will reduce at least by two
days, and possibly four days, the travel
ling time between New York and Lon
don. The scheme has been quietly ad-
vanced for some time by DR.. NOrvin
Green, of the Western Union Telegraph
Company, his son. and A. L. Blackman,
until recently the General Manager of
the Newfoundland Railway Company.
Early in the present month a company
was organized in this city for putting
the plan into execution, with DR.. Norvn
Green as President and A. L. Blackman
as Vice President. The name of the cor
poration is the Great American and Eu-
rOpean Short Line Railroad Company.
Charters have been obtained from the
Dominion Government, and the Govern
ments of Nova Scotia and Newfoundland.
and work has been commenced at what
is called the Oxford extension of the
road, stretch of seventy miles in Nova
Scotia, from Oxford to New Glasgow.
The new line will run by existing rail
roads from New York by way of
Boston, Bangor, and st. John, New
Brunswick, to Oxford, Nova Scotia,
where the section already spoken of is
building, thence to New Glasgow, and
from there by the Halifax and Cape Bre.
ton Railroad to the Strait of Cansa
From this point the line will extend to
Cape North, across the narrows of the
Gulf of st. Lawrence by steamer, and
then across Newfoundland by rail, and
thence by steamship to Ireland. The
terminus in Ireland will be near the
port of Galway. 1t is part of the COM
pany's plan to run daily line of fast
steamships 10th ways between New
foundland and Ireland. The idea of
this line was derived from a similar
line that has long been in success
full operation in England That line
crosses England by rail from London
to the Island of Anglesey, and
connects by steamer across st. Georges
Channel with a railroad from Dublin to
Queenstown, where connection is made
with the transatlantic steamship, which
sailed from Liverpool ten hours before
the train left London. The advocates of
the plan claim many advantages for it,
chief among which is the avoidance of
the dangers of navigation along the
coast of the continent from NewfOund-
land to New York. They also claim that
they will have an almost air line from
Chicago to Newfoundland, by which
twelve hours will be saved from that
point, and great stress is laid on the
beauties of the scenery along the line in
Nova Scotia and Newfoundland. Work
on the Newfoundland division will not,
it is said, be commenced before next
year, and it is expected that the entire
line will be put in operation in 1886 or
1897
