FORTY-SEVEN ARE HURT.
EVANGELIST MOODY CALM.

FORT WORTH, Tex, April 21.-All of
Texas has needed rain, so the great evan
gelist, Dwight Moody, called upon his au-
dience of 5000 Christians to pray for the
foodgates to be opened. This was at 3
P. NJ. to-day. Tonight, when the taber-
nacle was crowded by 10000 people, Mr..
Moody announced that word had come
from several points that rain had fallen.
A few minutes later the storm burst on
Fort Worth and torrents of rain fell. Then
Mr. Moody gave thanks to God and called
upon the congregation to join in singing
Coronation" and
All hail the power of Jesus name,
Let angels PROSTATE fall.
The song had surged forth from 10000
voices, when a cracking noise was heard,
and the roof sank and the rafters gave way,
and the heavy timbers and boards, covered
with tar and gravel, came down on por-
ton of the congregation.
A panic ensued. Scores upon scores of
women tainted. Some men lost their
heads and piled pell-mell over them. Mr..
Moody grasped the situation, and moving
to the middle of the platform lifted both
hands to heaven, moving his arms slowly
to and fro. His attitude and GOODNESS
stopped the panic, and the men began to
work to rescue those in danger. A drench-
ing rain was falling, but they worked hard
and the wounded were soon taken out and
carried to their homes or to houses near by.
The casualties: ]. Y. Ingraham, cut on
head and neck, arm hurt, internal injuries,
will die.
Will J. Farley, left leg crushed, back in
jured, seriously hurt; Mrs. Mary Murphy,
cut on head and left arm; Miss Carson, cut
on face and right arm; Miss Lulu Haley,
cut on face; J. w. Manchester, cut on
shoulder and left arm (; Mrs. Morton Logan,
wife of the City Treasurer, cut on the
shoulders.
Some forty others were slightly hurt.

her grief, wasa woman named Benot, beau

almost nightly occurrence.
