4 POWERFUL ARGUMENT By Evangelist Moody at the
 Wigwam Last Night. HIS FAREWELL SERMON Will Be Preached This Morn ing-SerViCeS to Be Continued
 in All the Churches.
HIS FAREWELL SERMON

The throng of people which streamed in- cessantly into the great Winnie Davis wig wam last night from O 'clock until past o'clock numbered at least 6500, and not one of these could go away and conscen- tiousy say MT. Moody did not preach an excellent seim)n
 The mass of people which was inside the wiswam listened atteutively, and the word of God expouuded by this disciple was heard in the uttermost corners. No one complained that they cou not hear, for the speaker's words were clear and distinct and the utmost quiet prevailed.
 It was announced Sunday night that MT. Moody would preach hls farewell sermon last light, but he was prevailed upon to preach again this morning. His sermon will begin promptly at o'clock.
 Dr. P. T. Hale, before the services of the evening opened, said it was his desire that this good work which has been in progress for the past two weeks, bs kept up. He wanted the people who have been in aL- tendance upon the services so regularly during the past ten days to keep going to farewell sermon, which takes place this morning. He felt great interest in the work and was sure that all other Christian people of the city did. He wanted the min- isters to keep the ball rolling, and great rewards would surely come.
 He then announced that revival meet ings would be held in the Southside Bap- tist church in the evening at o'clock. He stated also that Rev. MT. Garrett, re- nowned minister from Baltimore, would be here to assist h1m in this work. He wanted all the people to come out. , Dr.. Gray then announced that similar work would be carried on at the First Bap- tist church every afternoon and night. Dr.
 VI Heddon of Rome, Ga., will assist Ivy during the time that these meet Dse kept up. He asked all who do so and to bring their uis b

and then not reach it. He believed there were many people in the audience who were near the ngdom of Heaveng for un- less the spirit of God was moving them he knew so many people would never como out to hear him.
 Here he told how easy it was to be within a short distance of Heaven and then miss entering in. Taking up the fear that Herod had of John the Baptist, he read a few verses from Mark, where it showed it was through actual fear Of John that caused him to be beheaded. He believed that above all preachers John was the most ex- traordinary who ever lived, for he raised thousands of people aud depopulated towns which had no minister's union to back or newspapers to advertise him. Until Christ cane to him he didn' t think that John had but one text, and that was: "RepeDt, re- pent, for the kingdom of Heaven is near at hand''
 His description of how Herrod went 10 hear John preach and the interest he took was graphic He imagined Herod at first as saying there was no king but Cesar, but thatIhe gradually became more and more interested and affected, so that he went away without arresting him, and what sight it must have been at Jordan when John baptized Christ.
 He scored these latter day people who posed as Christians when really they were not.
 This he followed up by showing that If minister was faithful one he would show up person's faults as well as goods deeds, and if the minister were not faithful he would smooth over everything h order to keep you on his side.
 He said that a person must give up his every sin; if he didn't God couldn't help him, for he took no compromise. He wanted the people to distinctly understand that they could not live with secret sins and think 1t could be covered up with good contribution thrown in the collection basket.
 Here he to,d pathetic story of how eleven men died in a snow storm within 6 feet of where they lived, and followed it up by saying that he believed there were 1000 people in the w1gwam who were near unto the kingdom of Heaven.
 With pathetic story of man who had Ups and downs in life in Chicago he closed hls sermon.
 He asked the audience to bow in silent prayer, and then asked if there were any who wished the prayers of the Christian people to stand up. Nearly 300 answered his call.
 After the prayershe asked all who wished to learn the way of life to retire to Seals hall, where be would meet them. This re- quest was taken advantage of by several hundred and a glorious after meeting fol- lowed

M. Gault states that the Rus
SLAMS, since their occupation of the
district embraced by the valleys of the
Syr Daria and the Zarafshan, have
given a very great development to the
cultivation of cotton, and have intro
duced several American varieties of the
plant, notably the upland. At first
the natives were SO prejudiced against
the new plants that the experiments
failed, but the Russians ~persevered,
and, whereas nine years ago Turke-
stan produced only $500 pools of
cotton worth $1433, the quantity ex-
ported in 1890 was about 1000, 900
pools, of an estimated value of
81, 900, 600.
