The revival al the Baptist church gath
ers strength, momentum and power nightly.
Despite the counter attraction of popular
theatrical company, last night, Rev. James
had crowded house, manv
of the audience being persons who
seldom or never attend church. The WON
derful success this evangelist is meeting
with ,here,is due to the earnestness, sinceri-
ty and simplicity with which he presents
divine truths. A we'll built muscular man,
with eyes beamirg with faith, and hope,
and love, MIR. James possesses powerful
personal magnetism. In the general con-
tour of hts features he resembles pictures Of
the wounded outlaw of similar name. His
wife, a bride of scarcely a year, is a devoted
little woman from whose face CLOVIS and
smiles an almost divine hope and love. She
aids her husband materially in his good
works by her singing. Last night in the
solo Where is My Wandering Boy To-
Night? her full, rich and sweet voice
touched deeply the heart of every listener.
There were forty requests for prayer anu a
dozen conversions last night.
