ORCHESTRAL MUSIC.
Arrangements have been made for
the orchestra OF Grace NJ. T.. Church
to visit the camp on Thursday, A
special platform will be erected for
the occasion, and with Frof. Sweeney
leading the choir the grove will be
made to ring as 1t never rang before.
Should tho weather be favorable, the
day will be memorable one, and may
be recorded IA one of the most i'm
Iportant in the history of Brandywine
Summit Camp. AS 1t Is the closing
day. there will doubtless be O very
large attendance.
SPIRITUAL RESULTS.
DR.. Hubbard is highly pleased with
the results OF the meetings at the
camp. Thirteen adults have protested
conversion and a number of others
have desired prayers that they may be
forgiven, and that they may be en-
Iabled to walk In the straig and mar
row way. Beside, some ten or twelve
children have experienced a change of
heart. and IL may be that they will
hold fast to tho faith while life shall
last. Other conversions may yet fol-
low, as a good ceiling prevails and
'the meetings are Of spiritual charac-
ter.

| EXCELLENT TRAIN SERVICE.
Patrons OF the Wilmington and
Northern Railroad Company are
united in their praise for the excellent
train service furnished them. Trains
in charge of gentlemanly train hands
are run to and from the grounds at

credit from all citizens, and not only
camp visitors, for the efficiency of ser
vice.

their homes tomorrow. while others
will remain on the grounds another
week. The preachers are always ready

strain, some OF them would re main on
the grounds another week to batter
down the strong holds of the evil ono.
