The Rev j. l.. Griffin, the "Sin

almost double; his black face drawn
and turned comicslly to one side, his

he kept the audience waiting half
40 hour, standing, till the necessary
money was raised to pay for the hall.
But his auditors waited patiently, wait
ed for MIN to begin his preaching.
Finally he straightened up and pushed
the table and the money from hun.
His wonderful voice rang out above the
bsbole IN the hall:
"Who is heah dat love the Lord?"
Every voice ceased for moment,
then the shrill voice OF IA woman cried
out:

strange irble of words. He moved
his arms to ether, swing n 2 them back
anu forth, his body swayed like man
saving wood, forward snd backward,
his left heel rising and falling with
every movement On his face was an
expression of esruestuess so fierce aud
wild that he seemed in mortal pain.
His wife, in q rich plush jacket, looked
straight in front of her, and she. too,
seemed suffering the most terrible
agonies of religion. These two white
faces, drawn and hsRgard, looked out
from the stage uuon 1900 black ones,
happy aud smiling, tossing from side

In these contrary ways that religion

monotone till the excited German sat

And now came the time when
Brother Griffin. the "Sin Killer" felt
himself called on tn preach. He began
this way: He walked swiftly out and
stood on the front of the platform, now
cleared of the table with the money on

''Hoo-oo-oo-oo," he sang softly.
"Hoo-oo-co-oo," like a witch doctor OF

His voice rose and fell in that singular
grooming. Then it stopped and he be-
gan to preach, not prose, but blank

something like this:
