AN ENGLISH REFoRMER.
The Eev. Hugh Price Hughes Lectures
on His Work In London.

At the Chestnut Street NJ. f. Church
last evening the Rev. Hugh Price Hughes,
who for the past six years has carried on a
remarkable religious and reform work in
the west end of London, delivered most
graphic and instructive lecture, describing
the social evils in that great city and what
means hc and his colleagues had pursued
in combating them.
In opening he said he thought il was n
mistake for people TO be discouraged by
the problems incidental 10 great cities, for
although cities We're the seats OF great
wickedness, they were also the centres of
all that was best, and the hope of the
world had been ana was in the cities.
Life in cities was always more intense ana
spirited than life in the country. The ten
dency of human society is toward cities,
and the goal OF human desire in the future
is pictured as The City of God"
London, said Mr.. Hughes, is divided
into four principal districts, north, south,
east and west. This latter region contains
population of 100000, and Is now the cen
tire of the business life of the metropolis.
Here are the houses of Parliament, the
principal abodes of fashionable society,
and here, too, is the centre of the most de
graded forms of fashionable sensuality.
The lecturer then went on To describe
how the newspapers had done an immense
service 20 humanity not only in exposing
the gilded vice of the West End but also
III showing up the awful poverty that
existed even in the shadow of the Queen 5
palace. lie with others organized mis-
sion 10 the West End its object being to
convert the rich and poor, heathens all,
who composed the population. For the
speaker said a more goddess and non
church going people does not exist in a
Christian country than the English aristo-
cracy In the West End.
Six years ago Mr.. Hughes accompanied
by small group of persons chief among
whom were Mark Guy Pierce, one of the
greatest preachers in England, Josiah Nix,
Heath Mills, his own wife, and others,
entered upon n comprehensive plan of prac-
tical Christian propagandist work which
included the holding of Sunday services in
St. James Hall, where 400 could be seat
ed, while various other forms of personally
helpful work was carried on by the en-
deavor Of his congregation among the peo-
Pile in their houses. The remarkable sue
cess of this work il well known
