against 43 men who would not pay

Twenty eight at once prevented at
tachment by making affidavit that
they had 10 more than the law al
lowed. Under the decision Of the Su-
preme Court they were arrested for
petit larceny and bound over in the
sum Of $500. Six of these did not
give bond but went to Jail. This is
the result of the postal law, which
makes it larceny to take paper and

to this decision he hired pew with
the understanding that he was to NIL
it each Sunday. Like everything else
he undertook, he fulfilled his commits
sion with intense earnestness and en-
thusiasm. He did not wait for the
Young men to come to church, but he
went after them, stopping them on
street corners, visiting them IN their
lonely rooms, aud even calling them
out Of saloons. 1t was altogether new
and strange md the novelty Of the
whole work had an irresistible effect
with the consequence that in a short
time young Moody was renting SIX
pews which he filed every Sunday
with his strange and mOtely guests.
There was little mission on North
Wells Street and he applied for class.
! He was told that the sixteen teachers
were amply able to instruct the twelve
scholars, bat if he would provide his
own class they would be very glad to
have him. This was just what Mr..
Moody wanted. Next Sunday there
was a sensation. Young Moody
opened the door and led in a process
sion of eighteen little 'hOodlums' whom
he had gathered from the streets.
