WORLDS HEADQUARTERS.
The Old Cottage Hotel Becomes a
Mission House.

Stranger things may have happened
than that the Cottage hotel where erst-
while rang the ribaldry and revolver
shots Of hilarious cowboys should
resound to the prayers and songs of a
gospel band not often. The
ghosts of the Texans who disported
upon the long porch of Abilene's tall
landmark will be surprised If they Il t
along the corridors and find the walls
adorned with Bible texts and prayer
meetings going On in the rooms their
corporeal forms used to occupy.
Yet such is the transformation. The
Worlds Gospel Union is having the
entire building reatted. Every room
and hall is being repapered, carpeted
and the wood work painted. Omces
have been ftted up in the east wing
aud are occupied by Secretaries G. s
Fisher and II. W. Crichton with their
assistants. The dining noon has been
changed to an assembly room, a ros-
trum put in and visitors will hardly
recognize the structure, so completely
has 1t been changed. 1t will be known
as the Mission house. An instructor
will be engaged and under the manage
ment of Chairman A. Il. Bishop and
the secretaries Bible school will be
conducted, instructing young men on
mission work for home and foreign
fields, A boarding department will be
added and it Is expected that 40 or so
students will soon be at work.
The plan is something unique and
will doubtless attract considerable
attention, A the headquarters of
Worlds organization it will offer ap
for seeing how the institu-
iion ia conducted and determining
It's success.
