In Tacoma lives a shrewd old lawyer
named Grattan, who has a dry humor.
He has lately been engaged III defending
the theaters against attacks on them
from the ultra religious element in the
city, which attempts TO close them on
Sunday nights. At the same time he is
q strong opponent to gambling. Adele
cation Of preachers called ON him not
long ago to labor with him on the thea
ter question. One of the ministers, after
a long argument, remarked that he was
surprised at the inconsistency of the
lawyer in attacking the gambling houses
while at the same time defending the
Sunday plays. Grattan replied, Il know
that you clergymen run both heaven and
hell; now why can't you let me run a

the Fort was inspired by the story of
the signals exchanged by Generals Sher-
man and Corse when the latter was be-
sieged at Allatoona, GA, but few knew
how the idea was brought to Mr.. Moody's
mind. Once when General and Mrs.
Corse lived in Chicago Mr.. Moody called.
While there he took up a book that told
the story of that famous confictin which
Corse had been Sc badly wounded, and
seeing the message from General Sher-
nina, Hold the fort. for l am comingl"
exclaimed enthusiastically, what a
magnificent motto that would be for a
marching song for the army of Christi"
And the day after the famous hymn was
written, beginning with Hold the fort.
