TO CONVERT THE BIG CITIES.
An E~vangellstic Movement to He Inaug.
urated Next Winter.

An Evangellstic Movement to He 1nAug.
urated Next Winter.
There will occur next winter q series
CT religious gatherings the like of
which this country has never seen.
They will surely attract the attention
of the religious world. especially as
the movement is to be ~non-sectarian in
its broader purposes. The plan in-
clIdes aggressive and continuous work,
not only within the ~Episcopalian de-
nomination, but within every demons
and while as yet no formal re-
spouse has been made by those
in power in the Catholic Church,
there is reason to believe that they will
give the movement their cordial aid.
TIE plan was first conceived by Rev.
DIR. E. A. Bradley. the rector of st.
Agnes Church in New York City, and
the president of the influential associa-
ton called the Brotherhood of st. An
drew. Bishop Whitaker, of Phila-
delphia, gave tho first cordial approval,
followed by Bishop Paret, of Ra IT,
more, and Bishop Potter, of the New
York diocese. MIR. Moody heartily ap-
proves of the proposit on and regards
it as auxiliary to his own special re-
ligious work. He gladly consented to
arrange for his Washington meetings
SO that they could be held at the same
time that this series of meetings in
Washington churches was to be held.
In detail the plan is as follows: Eight
weeks tefore the beginning of Lent
there will begin a series of daily serv-
ICES in every Episcora' Church in
Washington, in every Presbyterian
Church there and probably in ev-
cry church of any other denomina-
tion. There are to be held three serv-
ices daily. morning, afternoon and
evening. They are not to be what are
called revival services. they are to be
more in the nature of that extra
ordinary series of religious meetings
which vas held in Trinity Church in
New York C.tJ during Lent four
years ago, when Phillips Brooks
preached for an hour to large congre-
cations. To Washington will go some
OF the ablest and most eloquent preach
ers in all of the denominations. Such
men as DR.. Greer, DR.. Lyman K.
Beecher, and every one of the clergy
of Great Britain who has gained re-
pute in this country. Later the meet
ings will be held in Baltimore. Phila-
delphia, and other large cities. 1t is
believed that the Methodists and Zap.
lists will cordially cooperate.

Any man who, after consulting these

1t is probable that il the truth were,
known it would be found that the,
Cleveland panic has cost the country
in actual money loss several times as
much as did the civil war. A few
large items will show how great and
universal the shrinkage of values has
been. The bank c%learances for 1893,
as compared with those of 1892, fell of
$40, GOO,OOO,C Goa. The mind can no more
grasp the idea of that amount Of
money than it can the idea of infnity.i
seventv-five railroad systems, repre-
senting one-siXth of the railway mile
age of the United States, went into
the hands of receivers in 1892. The
gross receipts of l2l railroad systems
fell off more than $S,OOO,OW. Five
hundred and ninety-eight banks closed
their doors. The number of business
failures increased 80 per cent. within
twelve months. During the six years
preceding 1893 the aggregate liabili-
ties in all the business failures in the
United States did not much exceed
$500, COO,0OO; in 1893 they exceeded
1881, 100000. These are some of the
large items which can be stated
with a close approach to accuracy, but
no definite statement a be made of
the general shrinkage of values, the
loss of wealth production from the
idleness of great multitudes of men,
the loss to the commercial world from
the n%on-payment of wages and from q
general paralysis of business opera
tions. Every pound of wool that has
been clipped this year has lost one
third Of its value. Every domestic
animal in the country has been scaled
down in price. Every bushel of wheat
has lost from one-fourth to one-third
of its former value. In short, the
shrinkage in values that cannot be
automatically stated has probably been
even greater than the aggregate of the
large items given above.
Mr.. Cleveland in one of his messages
referred to manufacturers as "men who
employ the protective system to levy q
forced tribute from their fellow-citi-
zens." Yet in less than one year Mr..
C.leveland's party, led and instigated
by him, has inflicted upon the country
losses probably exceeding all the pro-
tective duties paid by the people since

Remaining Glass Shoppers.

Sometimes it is very difficult to re-
move a glass stopper from a bottle. A
cloth wet in hot water generally is
sufficient. but if this fails, remember
the principle is to expand the neck of
the bottle by heat and not the stopper.
With hot water the latter is often heat
ed equally with the neck, and thus the
desired effect is not produced. By hold
ing the neck of the bottle about half an
inch above the fame of lamp or can
die, however, in a few seconds the most
obstinate cork will generally come out.
Care must be taken to turn the bottle
rapidly and not allow the flames to
touch the glass, as it might crack it.
When the glass is thoroughly heated, a
steady pull and twist will almost al
ways bring out the stopper.-Exchange.
