EVANGELIST STUART TODAY.
Rev. Geo R. Stuart Will Begin His Reviv4 /
Meetings Today

Rev Mr.. George r. Stuart, the famous
Evangelist, arrived in Raleigh yesterday
Afternoon, Erom Salisbury, N. c. Mr..
Stuart is here TO hold revival services for
the next ten days in this city. The meet
ings will be held in the Edenton Street

this morning at II o'clock. This even
ing, the exercises will begin at 80. Each
succeeding morning the service will be-
gin promptly at II O'Clock, and last until
II o'clock These meetings are conducted
on the same plan that Mr.. Moody always
used, and also that which Rev. Mr.. Sam
Jones followed, namely, the Methodist
revival.
Mr.. Stuart is we'll known all over the
country, having addressed nearly as
many thousands as has Sam Jones. In
twelve years past, Sam Jones never held
revival meeting without Mr.. Stuart,
and SO the latter gentleman is familiar
figure all over the country They spent
q month in Boston recently, preaching in
the Peoples Temple and Fanenil Hall.
In St. Louis, eight thousand people flled
the great Exposition Hall 10 hear Mr..
Jones and Mr.. Stuart They filled the
great Tabernacle in Atlanta, built for the
exposition. At Salisbury. Mr.. Stuart ad-
dressed three thousand people in taber-
nacle built for the purpose. This is his
first visit to this city and it is evident
that the people Of Raleigh have treat
in store for them during the next ten
days.
Mr. Stuart is a tall. dark man, with
strong features. He is affable and pleas
ing in conversation. Yesterday evening,
in talking with News and Observer rep
resentative upon the merits of great
speakers, he remarked that no man had
ever been a great moving orator, crowd
compeler who did not possess the ability
to make men think, to make them laugh,
and to make them weep.
