The Great Interest I'm the Meetings Cone
tinue-Prowerfai Address by Rev. DR..
Henderson.
The intense interest manifested in the
services which are being held in the
hope of upbuilding the Methodist
churches Of the city in particular and
the cause, of Christianity in general, Is
certainly very gratifying to those in
charge of the work and who have been
instrumental in arranging for the week
os services
There was an exceptionally large cor
gregation at the first of the weeks mass
meeting in the First Methodist church,
corner of Elm and College streets last
night. and many were unable to gain
admission to the edifice. The enthu-
siasm which was stirred up at the inn
mense meetings on Sunday afternoon
and evening, and the powerful sermons
preached by the Rev. Mr.. Henderson Of
Brooklyn on those occasions showed an
enormous increase and every one pres
ent manifested the greatest eagerness
to hear the teachings Of the Lord Jesus
Christ, as expounded by Rev. Mr.. Hen
derson. He preached an eloquent and
reaching sermon and at the conclusion
of the regular service conducted an af-
ter meeting which was almost as large
ly attended as the regular service, and
in this there were many manifestations
Of a desire to change and follow the
way of the Lord in the future.
The music was stirring and sung with
spirit and understanding by the large
congregation, being led by mixed
choir of young people.
The speaker this evening will be the
Rev. DR.. Downey of Brooklyn, who has
a great reputation as an evangelist
preached and there will certainly be a
large congregation present.

Among recent French inventions is
the loud talking telephone. By its use
a speakers words are transmitted to
the other end OF the connection with
all OF their original force, and that, too,
while the speaker and the listener need
not disturb themselves to go to the
telephone. That is, a man may sit in
his easy chair, putting away at a cigar,
or may even be in a room adjoining
that containing the transmitter, and
talk to another man at distance, who
may be conducting himself similarly,
with as much ease and distinctneSS as
