meetings here last night. Mr. Fife. al his
first service. announced his belief that
Wilson would be stirred from centre to
circumference, and last night fully 3oO
souls testified that they had given their
hearts to Christ during his stay IN our
midst. There was never such religious
awakening. and its influence has reached
all classes. The mayor of the city, TO-
gether with many prominent and lniiuen-
tial citizens. professed publicly faith IN the
Saviour. The evangelist has literally cap
tured the city for Christ. Preiudices nave
under the power OF the Spirit, been trans;
mitted into love for this faithful ana
earnest worker for Christ. About 200 souls
have been converted, TO say nothing OF
the multitudes who have reconsecrateu
themselves to the Masters service.
The Presbyterian, Disciples, Missionary
Baptist and Methodist churches of the
CITY have with one heart united IN
the sweetest Christian cooperation III
their efforts TO save souls. Many Chris
tians from other denominations OF the city
have Joined with these in work for the
salvation of souls. There was great re-
joicing over the glorious results. SIR, Fife

DEMAND FOR SEED.
Members of Congress have practically
exhausted their supply OF garden seen
which is annually allowed for distribution
among their constituents. The demand
for seed from Virginia and North Carolina
has been very heavy this year. and there
has not been enough to begin to satisfy
the calls. One reason Is that more people
apply than can be favored. Ihere II
mistaken idea, too. that the government.
has enormous quantities. ana that tne ~
ject il to literally provide enough 10
any one who applies for planting.
The real object, however, is to merely IN
troduce few OF the improved varieties
and when anv one gets start on a hne va
riety OF tomato. beet. onion. radish. Deah'
pea. or any other sort, the government ex-
poets the favored party to raise seed from
