not want to help the Jew, because he did

TOUCHED THE CHORD
That Set Vibrating the Emotions of
the Great Audience.
TIE STORY OF THE GOOD SAMARITAN
As Told in the Graphic Style o.
Mr.. Moody.
Mr.. SANKEY'S SIN GING

The usual tremendous throng besieged
Convention Hall last night. There were
enough folks gathered at the portals at $50
to fill the seats on the main floor, and when
the doors were opened there was a surg
ing rush BY the time the confusion of the
first rush had subsidized there had been
enough arrivals to fill the gallery seats as
well. So. by Z O'Clock every seat In the
hall had been taken and the doors were
closed promptly as soon as this fact was
ascertained.
There was nothing more to do but to
walt for the chorus seats to fill up, and in
fve minutes enough Of the singers had ar
rived to enable Leader Foster to swing his
baton and for the third time the grand vol
ume of sound swelled over the heads of the
thousands that had assembled to hear the
great evangelists.
Began Ahead of Time.
So prompt was the crowd and chorus
that Mr.. Moody decided to open the meet
ing at 100. instead of waiting for the usual
hour
He is a man who knows the value of
time, and who does not believe In wasting
any of 1t. He announced the first hymn.
which was sung by the chorus and audience
standing. and then the first prayer was of.
fered by Rev. DR.. Easton of the Eastern
Presbyterian Church. When the PRAYER
was over, Mr.. Moody was Joined on the
front platform by his brother evangelist,
and the former announced that Mr., Sankey
would sing solo. Taking up the flexible
Bible that lies close at hand throughout
the meeting, the great baritone read a few
lines about Bclshazzar's feast, beginning
"Belshazzar made a great feast to a tbous-
and OF his lords" Then he seated himself
at his organ. and in a voice that grew bet

ter with each line, sang beautiful para
phrase or the Scriptural passage with the
refrain Of The Writing ON the Wall"
For minute following Mr.. Sankey's solo
there was stiffness in the hall, while the
in q Re hearts Steering
politan broke the stiffness by voicing the
prayer that was being whispered.
The choir had a tendency to fiat the next
hymn, No. al, and at the third verse there
was quite discord. that made both the
evangelists turn IN their seats to see what
was causing the difficulty. At this the cor
net player footed so persistently on one
something near the right key.
MIR. sankey Sings Again.
Mr.. Moody then read a few verses from
the tenth chapter of Luke, including the
story OF the Good Samaritan, and was fol-
lowed by Mr.. Sankey. who sang Eternal"
number 1877 in the book. After this he left
the hall for the overflow meeting at the
Assembly Church. The "Hallelujah." num-
Der 13o. of the choir which came next. was
sung in excellent style and wiped out the
UNPLEASANT memory of the other hymn.
There will be no meetings tomorrow"
announced Mr.. Moody. "On Sunday there
will be meeting for the women at 8
clock in the afternoon and one for the
different gospels for the men and the wo-
men. but we want to reach just twice as
many people by holding two meetings.
Now let me thank those who have at
tended on the three evenings. They have
paid the most perfect attention and have
been very quiet. 1 have spoken in many
different halls, but never before have /
spoken in one 300 feet long, with one-third
OF the audience behind me. Yet I guess
have been heard. I generally talk pretty
fast. but 1 am trying to be slow here In
Washington. If i could only send out one
word at time, on stills. 1t would be all
right But i guess We shall get along"
DR.. Hamin then asked the workers to
meet the committee after the services, for
few words as to their duties and their
work in the coming week.
Mr.. MOOdy's Talk.
Mr.. Moody gave out hymn go for the au-
dience to get warmed up on, and had them
sing 1t two or three times. with and with
out the choir, and when he had got them
nicely started he began his talk. He took
for his text the passage he had read from
the Scriptures, and addressed himself to
the subject of Good Samarita pism." He
drew his audience nearer to him Man at any
time in the previous meetings, and devel-
oped his wonderful power to get hold of
the hearts Of his hearers. Before he had
finished there were tears in the eyes of
more than half Of those in the great hall.

than any man that could have been
nominated. The bosses and the masses
that the bosses control Will. fight for
him as they would for nobody else. His
candidacy will in all probability pre-
vent that lethargy which seized possess
ion of the Democrats in Maine and Yer
mont. There won't be SO large per
eentaee of stay-at-home Democrats in
New York on election day as there was
in Maine. But on the higher class of
Democrats and the Independents the
effect is going to be different. The anti
snapper movement of two years ago
showed that there is a large Democrat C
element in New York bitterly opposed
to Hill. It showed, too, that it was
courageous element. willing to fight
against him if need be. Much the same
reasons exist for opposing Hill now that
existed two years ago. Hills campaign,
while ostensibly for the governship, is
really for the Democratic nomination for
the Presidency. If he is elected governor
the prestige of his success will in all
probability compel the Democrats to
nominate him in 1896 The anti-snappers
can see this, and they are not likely to
assist in bringing about this state of
things. Furthermore during the past
two years Hill Mas lost ground with a
good many men whos though never en-
thusiastic in his support, nevertheless
voted for him. The crushing def eat of
Maynard year ago was'also a condemna-
tion to Hill, for it was generally under
stood that Hill was really responsible for
his nomination. The conduct of Flowers
administration has also hurt him, for
he was generally recognized as the
power behind the throne. Last, hut not
least, his bitter warfare upon the two
nominees for the Supreme Bench who
were endorsed by the bar Of New York
city, has left rankings in the breast of
good many prominent Democrats,
which have by no means passed away.
As for the Independents, they cannot
vote for him without self qualification.
He has been i'll their estimation the
embodiment of all that is bad in poll tics
and their warfare upon him has been un-
remitting and relentless. With the so
called better element of the Democratic
party lukewarm, and the Independents
bitterly hostile Hill cannot be elected
unless he gets aid from the Republicans,
and that there is no hope of his getting
this year, whatever may have been the
case in the past. Hill will undou btedly
prevent the complete slump that would
have taken place had Thatcher, or Cook.
or Lockwood been nominated. but his
chancs of carrying the State are, we be-
lieve, small.

the age of Niagara have been Ebased ON
the rate OF recess on alone. In 119O.Elllcot
calculated it as $4,000 years; Lycell, in
1S4l, lowered the estimate 20 35, 000i in
1886, after three surveys ssWoodward re-
duced u 70 l2,0o0, and later still, gilbert
showed that the duration OF the falls
should be only about 7,000. yesrs-though
he is asid to have since modified his
opinions.
Spencer's method differs from Others.
IN that he takes into consideration the
changing episodes of the river as we'll as
the rate OF recession through said
episodes. He denies that the buried val
ley OF So. David. hitherto regarded as an
extension of the pre-glacial river from
the Whirlpool one, is such, and af1lrms 1t
to besa branch of buried valley outside
the Niagara canyon, and much shall
lower than it. The rate of the modern
recession has been determined under
changing conditions of erosion, so that
each episode has to be treated sepa-
rately.
First episode: Waterfall 200 feet high
volume 81 lfor the modern discharge, and
gorge II 600 feet long to the terrace of
Fosters FL ITS; duration II, 200 years.
Second episode: River falling 400 feet
in three cascades (a) discnarglng only
Erie waters through chasm 1000 feet
long: duration 5000 years; (b) drainage
of all the upper lakes through chasm
1000 feet long; duration 1900 years; (cl
volume as before, also descent, but in
one cascade, length Hof narrows 1900
feet; duration 500 years, (d) volume as
now, and level of lower lake as at present
rate of recession 3, 175 feet year; dura-
tion about 1.500 years.
Thus Spencer computes the age of the
Falls tosbe 81 1000 years, with 1000 years
added TO the age of the river before the
nativity of the falls He thinks the
turning of the Huronian waters into the
Niagara was about 5000 years ago. He
finds the amount of work done in each
episode by the posi- tion of the terracesand
the changing effects of erosion. The
modern recession is computed from four
surveys tending over AS years, but the
rate is excessive, ON account of the favor
ing conditions.
The history of the. great lakes must be
taken into the account, and also the rate
of terrestrial upllft in the Niagara re-
gion. The end of the Falls seems des-
tined to be effected, not by erosion of the
rocks. but by terrestrial reformation,
that shall turn the drainage of all the
upper lakes back into the Mississippi,
an event which it is calculated will take
place in 5000 years, which would be be-
fore the cataract would have had time
to cut it way back to Buffalo.
