which was so successful that he had to tear
the church down and rebuild it in order to
accommodate the converts. The elders is

touching and fervent prayer of appeal to
sinners i'm the dark, aud the congregation

The eyangelistS text was a portion Of the
forty-fourth verse of the twenty-secopd
chapter of Luke: And being in an agony
he prayed more earnestly" On this theme
the speaker dwelt at length and gave
many reasons why so many prayers ac-
complished nothing. 1t may have been
that they did not pray that effectual,
agoniZing prayer that availeth much. Such
prayers reveal the feelings Of God and
unite Jesus Christ with the church. There
are praying parents with prayerless chill
dren and praying wives with prayerless
husbands.
AT the conclusion of his sermon the re-
yivalist requested those who wished PRAYERS
on behalf of friends and relatives to an

ing The Good Work.
Two Rousing Meetings Yesterday at Graci
Church, Where Many Were Started
on the Right Path.

No complete converts were won over at
Evangelist Mills meetings yesterday, but at
the evening session a few cOntrite hearts
filed their first papers by signing cards ask
ing for prayers and designating the
church in which they desired TO become
members when the season OF supplication
ended.
These first meetings are simply prelim-
mary appeals to sinners Of San Francisco
on the question of repentance with final
salvation later on. The real work of re-
viyal will begin to-day.
Interest in the good work is rapidly in
creasing and two rousng meetings were
held at Grace Methodist Episcopal Church.
On each occasion the church was crowded
to its utmost capacity and many disap-
pointed seekers were turned away. The
afternoon revival was preceded by a
women's prayer meeting, in the classroom,

General Sir Lewis Pelly, who died in
England recently in his sixty-seyenth year,
did many things during his 40 years Of In
dian service that gave him reputation, but
the most remarkable and daring of his
achievements was his journey in 1865 to
Riyadh. the Wahabi capital of the great
Wahabi people. in the center of Arabia
The Wahabis are the fanatIcal Puritans of
Mohammedanism. in 1865 they were the
terror of Arabia. Their leaders, at the
head of small but reckless and dar-
ing armed forces. controlled the policy
of all the smaller Arab States bor-
dering the waters of the Persian Gulf.
At that time Pelly was the British
resident at Bushire. and was practically
the ruler of the country. Wahabi pow Ell
was ali the while spreading and came to
be regarded as great political danger.
Pelly watched IL very closely. The country
was nominaily within his administration.
He decided that it was necessary for him
10 pay a visit to Riyadh. He said that
Great Britain would be compelled to leave
that region entirely If 1t could not come to
some understanding or other with native
power which was claiming the right to in
terfere directly with the Arab population
along the shores of the Persian Gulf and
its Islands. which was encouraging piracy

Every body said that no one but Moham-
