sCHIvEREA's LAST NIGHT.
Scores of People Have Made Profession
OF Religion.

This evening Mr.. Schiverea, the
evangelist, closes his meetings in Reyn-
oldsville, which have been in progress
night and day for three weeks, and goes
to new fields OF labor. The meetings
have been wonderfully successful, a
large number having accepted and
started in the new life, while many
others have manifested desire to live
better lives by publicly asking for the
prayers Of the christian people. Never
In the history OF Reynoldsville has the
town been so stirred up, religlously, as
IL is now with the Schiverea meetings
and the big revival In the M. +. church,
conducted by DR.. G. G. Rumberger. A
number Of Italians have been attending
and taking considerable interest in Mr..
Schiverea's meetings. Last Friday
evening Mr. Schiverea preached Il
short sermon to the Italians by an in
terpreter. Joseph Macro acting as in
terpreter.
During the three weeks Mr.. Schiverea
has preached in Centennial hall every
evening, preached three times each
Sunday, except last Sunday he preached
four times, conducted prayer meetings
In the Baptist church every morning
and Bible readings in the afternoons.
Last Sunday he preached in the Pres
byterian church at 1l.00 A. NJ, in Cen
tennial hall at 200 p. NJ, to women, at
3.30 p. NJ, to men, and to general
congregation in the evening. Notwith-
standing the terrible wind storm that
was tearing down awnings and hanging
things around generally at the hour of
the women's meeting Sunday afternoon,
the hall was taxed to its utmost capacity
to accommodate the 'gentler sex" that
were present to hear Mr.. Schiverea.
A large number of our people have been
very much interested in Mr.. Schiverea's
meetings and will be very sorry to say
farewell to him.
Rev. J. NJ. Dean, pastor of the Bap-
| tist church. who was instrumental
| in getting Mr.. Schiverea to come to
Reynoldsville, will continue the revival
meetings in his church week longer,
at least. Sunday evening his meeting
will be held in Centennial hall instead
of the Baptist church.
AT four o'clock this afternoon Mr..
Schiverea will give special talk, in the
Baptist church, to single ladies on
''True Womanhood."

Washington, Nov. 15.-Gen. Breck-

the war Investigating committee. His
testimony was devoted TO the Santi-

campaign would have been conducted
differently had Miles been in COM

than any other man in the army, and

suggestion that victory was won with
in eight days of landing. Breckenridge
said: WON when Gen Toral's nerve
gave out" He did not feel that Shat
ter was above criticism in the conduct
of the campaign. He ascribed the re-
suit to the fact that the army was
capable of meeting all calls. NO
matter how tangled up. it went to
victory" He had never known a war
without criticism at its close.
Gen. Breckinrid@e said the evils
complained of in the recent war were
inssparable from the system EN- pIoyed
and making up the army on short no.
tice. There should be preparation
and mobilization in time of peace.
Summing up he said: considering
the system, the government did far
better in its conduct of the war than
anybody expected, and just about one

the positive statement made by Chair
man DinEley. of the ways and means

The government viii need for some
time all the revenue produced by the
war taxes. During the month of Octo-
Der the war expenditures exceeded the
war revenue by some SI4.OO O.OCO and
this month they viii be $4,000 Geo in cx-
cess. This being the case there will be
no changes al least this fiscal year. The
war revenue act will continue in force
and unchanged. except perhaps in few
minor administrative features for at
least a year longer. 1t is hardly neces-
sary TO add that there will be no revis-
ion Of the tariff, although I have seen
some statement to the effect that such
a revision is contemplated.
Question of an Extra Session.
The session is limited to three
months" he said. and that short per-
iod will be mainly occupied in passing
the appropriations bills. in enacting
new laws for the regular army, and in
deciding upon the legislation necessary

diton TO these important matters the

arise. From the present outlook the

the Americans ignored them, and de

payment for two dozen bananas the

cents. The course Of reasoning Is that
l real i y cents; reals, % cents
s reals make dollar. So the trav-

anas. but % cents for two dozen, and
no amount Of argument will convince
the peddler that this i not right.
