Yesterday was the big day Of salvation"
Three crowded meetings were held in the
Cooper Institute, each preceded by an especial
prayer meeting. All three were typical Saliva
ton Army meetings. The public was not in
vited, and religious, not phianthropc, matters
were Gen. Booths theme. AT 10 O'Clock in the
morning prayer meeting was followed by an
address by the General, in which he appealed TO
Christians TO devote their powers 20 God and TO
exert themselves for the conversion Of sinners.
Col. Lawley, with great power Of lungs and
spirit, sang II Know Of Saviour from SIM"
AS a result Of all these exertions f1fty-six per-
sons came forward and knelt at the penitence
form, asking delverance from the ways OF the
evil one.
The second meeting began nt 2N in. the after.
with bSlleiujahs md snatchSs of song The
conversion called Fishers OF Men" The Gem
eral came on tho stage accompanied by Com
mander and Mrs Burlington Booth, and was re-
ceived with storm OF applause. A duet, with
chorus repeated several times, given by Capt.
find GS Tge an sh ToT Sr fT Ssp
husband, were the prelminaries TO the chief
item Of the meetinR-the address Of Gen. Booth.
Gledness," he delivered q sermon which was as
remarkable for the homeliness of its treatment
fervor. lie strobe up and down the platform, he
smotc the desk with his clenched fists, and even
danced. =" believe" said he, that all here be-
lieve in n God who is almighty and all wise. and
that we owe service to that God. Not only must
we acknowledge the existence Of that God. not
only must we recognize His authority and serve
Him. but we must serve gladly and nngrudging-
~, not like paid servant but like dutiful,
loving son. The world has cast off religion.
Many pretend to serve. but few are sincere.
The former build on the sand and the latter on
the rock"
The General then went on to speak Of the
half-hearted service given by most professed
Christians, who were Christians on Sunday and
hcathens all the rest Of the week. In defence of
the noisy practices Of the army, he referred to
the dances Of the Israelites:
IF we were half a. lively they would say that
we were all Idiots, and Booth the biggest idiot
of ALL"
There was even larger and more enthusiastic
audience at the evening meeting. and at IL Gen.
Booth was the central figure and chief speaker.
