GREAT RELIGIOUS REVIVAL.
All Great Britain Stirred by the
Preaching of Two Ministers
From Chicago.
CBv lac Associated PICS. J

London, Dec. 17.-There has been
a remarkable spread in the religious
revivals which were started at Bolton,
Lancashire, by Rev. Rueben A. Tor
rey, and Charles NJ. Alexander, both
of whom are from Chicago.
At first the movement was consider
ed to be only one of the periodical
outbursts which happen from time to
time throughout England and Scot
land. but the proportions it has now
assumed attract general attention.
Wales, which is largely nOn-conform-
ist. is ringing with reviValS and the
churches are crowded on week days
and on Sundays. Some of the places
of worship will not accommodate
those who wish to attend. and people
gather in halls and in the open streets
All classes are affected.
A notable difference between the
Welsh revivals and other revival meet
ngs is the fact that the proceedings
are not conducted solely by those on
the platform. The leaders commence
the service with prayer. The mass
ed congregation, however, does not
follow this leadership, but individuals
or groups of individuals offer a pray
er suggested by personal promptness
until the whole becomes a babel of
independent supplication with varying
degrees of ferVor, reaching at times
to the point of hysteria and in the
chorus of which the voices of the wo-
men mingle with the deep tones of
the men.
The effect of the revival movement
is noticeable everywhere, and it Is
stated that tn public houses are al
most empty. Formerly they we're
crowded with miners after the work
ing hours. Drunkenness is now al
most unknown in the Rhonds valley
in Glamorganshire, where prayer
meetings are even held in the mines
during work hours. The efforts of
the preachers also are directed against
the football season, which is now in
full swing, and several big matches
which would have attracted the popu-
lace of the entire countryside have
been called off because the best plav-
ers refused to participate in the game.

invisible from our gun positions, ara
as you know shells don't always reach
the place to which they are directed,
