The wslI-ksows Chicago PslDse
Oratop Creates = Profound ass-
preston In London.

New York. Aug. i9.-Rev. DIR. Gum
sauius, OF Chicago. has created a pro-
found impression by his preaching
in DIR. Parker's pulpit in the City
Temple. says the Tribune's London
correspondent, and adds:
THE Chicago preachers high intel
lectuality. great fuency and poetic
view held the congregation spell
bound at the morning service. In the
course of a sermon, in which was
shown how vain was the mans effort
to span the mighty distance between
earth and Heaven and discover the
secret of the Almighty flame, the
preacher for "A moment descended
from his poetic plane and. with dra-
matte outspokenness unfamiliar to
f%reauenters Of the City Temple, actu-
ally excited the listeners into a dem
onstration Of applause. 1t is quite
unusual. even at the City Temple. for
Sunday worshippers loudly to express
the feelings, although at DR.. Parker's
Thursday services the addresses are
occasionally interrupted by murmurs
of approval. DIR. Gunsaulus can
therefore. regard the cheering as a
very exceptional compliment to his
powers of oratory.
