Hard Times and Revivals-

How strange and yet how natural it is
that hard times and religious revlVals
should come and 60 together. This winter
the conditions exist that, we are told, nave
always been followed BY an awakening IN
terest in tie life to come. An exchange
states that for half century, at least
such conditions have always been followed
in this country by wave of reyiyalisE
sweepiuQ over the land from one coast to
the other. Such was the case in 1897, and
again in 1873, and such Is the case now;
for in Brooklyn 40 churches are open for
daily meetings, Chicago and Montreal are
in the midst of great religious excitement.
two or three southern cities are under the
smell of the evangelist, Washington; ID. o.,
il planning for Moody and Sankey. aud
crowded meetings are being held in many
other cities and towns. In some places
business Is suspended the whole or part OF
two or three days each week in order tnat
everybody may go to the meetings, ana tne
churches and halls wherein they are helo
are not large enough to hold the multi
tudes that press for admittance-
This relation between hard times and
reviyals is so close that it is safe to meas
ure in advance the proable intensity and
sxtent of the revival by the pressure of the
times. This has been the hardest winter
for a generation. and accordingly it may
be predicted that the present revival Will
be oorrespondingly general and EXTENDED.
The reason for this il the helplessness and
need which such times compel IN human
hearts. IL seems to be the case that men
and women too generally put of seeking
the salvation of their souls, or 1000 for
their spitnal natures, so long as their bod,
les re Comfortably clad and sheltered and
fed and the earthly copsnlations, which
ara ordinarily sufficient for their conscious
nee.s. remain to them. When earthly
comforts fall as the hymn has it, men
and women seek heavenly comforts. and
only when they have exhausted their re-
sources and human help promises them
nothing, do they seek divine aid here IL
revealed the Limitations OF the oroiLary
life. 1t almost looks as though to TOO large
an extent it were not religion ltseii OF
| salvation" in the technical reyiyalistlc
sense, that many of the people who croWd
these hard-times revival meetings are al
ter. but some compensation for their losses
or substi tute for the comforts they have
been denied. When times are good ana
they are fairly prosperous, they DO NOT
crowd the churches or concern themselves
with their spiritual condition Give them
the comforts and tber will seemingly be
able to get along witboat the religion.
Take away the comforts and religion
presses home upon them. If they cannot
know the Joy OF possession here, it il
something to be told and to believe that
they are to know II hereafter. Treasures
ON earth are not theirs, but they are prom
ised treasur es in heaven, which too often
lit is to be feared-take on sadly mate
rial form in the aniicipations OF those VINO
accept the promise as for them.

Alderman Koran Had to Rule on Very
Peculiar Case.
Alderman Horan's office was filled
last night upon the occasion Of the
hearing Of the case brought by John
Murphy against George Scale for value
Of milk. On Aug 20 six cows were
found by Scale in his garden and the
owners were notified that the trespass
must be settled bofore the bovines were
released The damages were arbitrated
at $1.25 against the owner Of each cow,
and while Murphy went home for the
money, Scale MIXED five of the cows,
but the sixth was kicker.
Murphy claimed that as as he had
paid his share of the damages, Seal
had no right to milk the COW and he
therefore sued him for Ga cents, the
value thereof Defendant claimed
he milksd the COW in order to relieve
her and offered the milk to the various
parties. who, it appeared, declined to
take it, as 1t was mixed together and
they would be unable to apportion it..
The alderman decided that the quss-
ton at issue was, whether it was
necessary to milk the COW at the time
or whether she would be in pain from
nom milking, aud ruled that Scale had
failed to make out his defense, and
gave judgement for the plaintiff &C.
cordingly.
Proceedings will be taken by the
owners of the other five COWS, as the
case was taken as test,

There is a gang Of small boys who
congregate ON the Orchard grounds
every night and no manner of petty
mischief seems to escape them. The
principal diversion appears to be the
habit Of throwing stones at the houses
on Cedar avenue and their position on
the hill in the darkness left it very
difficult to catch them.
Last night about $50 the 11-year-
old son Of Peter New, of River street,
threw round stone the size of an egg
at the plate glass front of Bentele's
furniture store and cracked one of the
panes doing damage to the amount OF
about $50. Officer Flaherty gave chase
to the msddlesome urchin and capturld
him, hiding behind one Of the lumber
piles near the bridge. The officer
would have lodged the boy in the
station house but for the request Of Mr.
Bsntels who will make his father settle
the lose.
