EVANGELIST HAMMOND.
His Stirring Appeal to the Unconverted al
the Tabernacle.


the Tabernacle.
At last nights meeting in the series of re-
vivais now being held in the Tabernacle Rev.
Edward Payson Hammond, the evangelist,
spoke Of the good done by ne wspapers in Chris
tian work, and in that connection be said words
Of praise for The STAR.
Despite the inclement weather there was a
large attendance and men. women and children
rose from their seats and told of their CONVEX
sion. One man said he had been under ccnyic-
ton for sixteen years-ever since the Ham
mond meetings" beforehand yesterday he
gave his heart to God. His son did the same
1t was stated that thirty-three persons, mostly
children, rose for prayers at the children 9
meeting In the afternoon. and many of them
who were at the night meeting had something
TO say, as well as the older ones. The services
were opened by the singing of num-
Der OF hymns. the choir being composed of
female voices, and in the service of song the
reyiyalist took part. He wanted everybody to
sing. You all expect to sing in heaven" he
said. "and why not begin on earth?' The
hymns, he said. would almost sing themselves,
but the people sit quietly in their seats with
their mouths closed so tightly that they do not
have half a chance. Between the singing of
the hymns DIR. Hammond told of incidents
during bis travels in this and other countries.
ne mentioned time When he preached in a
prison in Scotland, where many of the inmates
were incarcerated for debt Those men owed
a debt which they could not pay, he said. and
then he spoke of some kind friend coming to
their assistance and giving a note for the
amount to keep them out Of bondage This
is what the Saviour had done for sinners.
Dr. Hammond spoke Of the number of persons
who attend divine services, but who never do
anything more than listen. Then he read from
the Bible TO show them the error of their way.
and a matter of illustration he spoke of two
nicely dressed ladies who were in the Meeting
They told me, he said. that they enjoved
the meetings and l asked if they would not do
some of the work, but they couldn't; they did
not belong to the church. Neither do l." en-
phasized the speaker. Then they said that
the people were strangers to them and 1 told
them that that was the same case with me. but
If a man il drowning would you refuse to throw
him a rope because you were never introduced
TO him. Rev.Mr Jones, pastor of the Tabernacle
led IN prayer and spoke of the good work that
was accomplished at the first days meetings.
At the conclusion OF the praise meeting the
choir sang Come TO Jesus" while those who
desired to do so left the room before the in
quiry meeting was began, when Dr. Hammond
and his assistants went through the audience
making personal appeals to those who were
affected, and before the close of the meeting a
number OF persons were converted The
meeting tonight viii begin at 7sO O'Clock and
DIR. Hammond viii be assisted BY the pastors of
several churches of different denominations in
this city. including some OF the Methodist
ministers who sre attending the conference.

THE COLORS OF LETTERS.
Strange Rallucination Regarding Word.
and

Strange Rallucination Regarding Words
and Sounds.
In my y outh l always associated the
idea of color with the letters of the
alphabet. In later years the discovery
that other people recognized no such
celebration came to me as surprise.
The letter R, for example, always calls
up the idea of greenness. It is impos-
sible for me to think of R without the
thought that it is green. In like man
ner S is yellow, and x scarlet. The
coloration does not seem to lie in the
letter itself. as printed or written, but
to coexist with the conception which
the letter represents. AS the letter R
comes into my mind, it seems to 90,
with grass and leaves, into the category
of green things. The sound has moth
ing to do with its apparent celebration,
for G soft and G hard are recog.
nlzed as the same letter and
therefore colored alike The col
Grafton is not affected by the character
of the type. It is in the letter itself,
regardless of the way in which it NAV
be printed, or of whether it is printed
or written at all. The idea has no con-
nection with the lettering in any COL
ored picture books, nor does it arise
from any association of that sort.
Words seem to me also more or less
definitely colored, but the association
of celebration with me arises solely
from the letters of which the words are
composed. The dominant letters, es-
pecially the initial letter, or the letters
most conspicuous in pronunciation, give
color to the word. Thus Rosalind.
though containing but two green let
tiers, has dominant shade of green. as
saliva or silica have of yellow. A pleas.
ing variety in the colors of the letter
tends to render word attractive.
Thus the words Vernon, Severn, and
Exeter, with contrasted colors, are
more attractive than such words as
Patton, Hammond. or Armenia. in
which the colors are few or not con-
trasted.-President Jordan, in Popular
Science Monthly. .......
