The Land OF Opportunity.

No place in the civilized world
ever offered grander opportunities
than this country offers today.
The wealth of the land is just now
given life by the touch of labor. 1t
requires no inspiration to enable
anybody to realize the rapid growth
of our diversified industries and
the wealth that is to be given mp
to the hand that but stands in
waiting for the favors of fortune.

A Verdict of Not Guilty in Michael j.
Russell's Case.


Michael ]. Russell who was charged
with the larceny fNa quantity of iewelry
from Salvador Desio on March 20 last, was
yesterday acquitted by jury in Criminal
Court No. l. The testimony in the case
was heard, and the arguments of counsel
concluded on Thursday, but it was not un-
til yesterday morning that Justice Cla-
baugh, who presided at the trial, charged
the jury. The case was given to the jury
for consideration at 10:30 a. m, and ver-
dict was reached at 2:45 p. IN.
AS soon as the announcement was made
Assistant District Attorney Shillington,
who represented the Government, stated
to the court that a requisition had been
received by Chief Justice Bingham, of
the Supreme Court of the District, from
the Governor OF Maryland asking that Rus
sell be turned over to an officer from that
State. Mr.. Shillington then stated that
Russell was wanted in Baltimore to answer
a charge of larceny AS was developed by
the testimony against Russell at his trial
on Thursday, he is accused of being a
party to the robbery of A. B. Saddler, a
Baltimore jeweler, on the same day on
which he was charged with robbing Desio's
jewelry store in this city.
When Mr. Shiliington resumed his seat,
and before Justice Clabaugh issued any or
der In reference to the matter Russell
arose and requested the court to delay ac-
tion in relation to the requisition until
his attorney, Campbell Darlington, could
be present. After the case was given to
the jury yesterday morning Mr.. Darlington
was called out OF town on business.

THE BOY EVANGELIST.
Lonnie Lawrence Dcnnis Stirs Re-
liGious Sentiment.

IiSious Sentiment.
Another religious exhortation and exhi-
bition OF the singular gifts of little Lonnie
Lawrence Dennis, the five-year- old colored
boy evangelist. was given last night to a
large audience in Israel C. NJ. E. Church
The judgment may be here by O'Clock,
apd you must get through SO as to be
prepared to meet it." were the words an
nounced by this juvenile preacher after
he had directed the singing of several
hymns, and announced in shrill voice
that he was Now prepared to talk, and
answer questions" This announcement
brought many questions to be answered.
and the little white robed infant strutted
back and forth on the platform and gave
his wise answers-mostly correctly-but
never admitting weakness on his own
part. If he did not know the answer to
the question he would graciously admonish
the asker to read the Bible and find out
the answer.
He depicted In answer to questions the
sufferings of Christ, his crucifiXion, the
inscription on the cross, his burial, resur-
rection, and final ascension into heaven.
After which he philosophical on the rea
son that Christ's body was not left on the
earth by saying that if it had been images
would have been made in likeness of it
and worshiped by the wicked people. He
had little sympathy for those who would
not believe the word of God when they
heard it, and announced that the Lord
would see to them on the Judgment day.
After talking for some time the Rev.
Master Dennis clambered down the steps
and appealed personally to the members Of
his congregation, asking them if they were
Christians and when he received a mega
tive answer he would take the sinner by
the hand and lead him or her to the altar
rail and request them to kneel down.
After he had succeeded in bringing several
repentant ones forward he offered child
ish prayer for their salvation.
II is the intention to have the boy con-
duct meetings in several of the colored
churches before he leaves the city.

A Motion in Moneys Behalf.

Justice Clabaugh, sitting in Criminal
Court No. l, heard argument yesterday on
a motion for a new trial and arrest of
judgment in the case of William H.
Mooney. who was some time ago con-
vieted of arson. There were two counts
in the indictment under which Mooney
was tried, but he was found guilty on only
one. Attorney Taylor, in his argument
for new trial and arrest of judgment,
claimed that the count in the Indictment
upon which his client was convicted is in
definite and insufficient specifying no par
ticular building which the accused was
charged with firing or attempting TO fire.
Justice Clabaugh took the matter under
advisement and will probably announce his
decision on Monday next.
