Eloquent Address to Young

Religious RevivalS.

Bishop Warren A. Gambler Of Atlanta
at the night session of the annual con-
ference of the Epworth Leagues of
Alabama made an earnest appeal last
night at the Court Street Church for q
revival wave among the Methodists of
America and England.
The distinguished divine spoke for
only an hour but never was a congre-
cation more profoundly impressed.
The subject he chose was peculiarly at
tractive to the young Methodists who
assembled. 1t was spiritual and at
the same time with that earnest blunt
ness of speech so peculiar to Bishop
Gambler, was deeply impressive and
highly entertaining.
The night service was opened with
song and prayer by Rev. 8. NJ. Hos
mer, D. D., President of the Southern
University at Greensboro.
Bishop Gambler announced that he
would speak on The Reference of the
Revival to Religion"

On account of the Indictment weather
last night, only a small audience heard
the lecture of Rev. II. w. Sears of De-
catur, Ill, at the Cumberland Presby-
terrain Church. but those who bravCd
the weather were fully repaid for their
exposure.
The speaker is a well-known lecturer
all over the country and large crowd
was expected to be present when he
delivered his lecture. The subject OF
Nhis talk was More Taffy and lie
Epitaphy," a discourse based on the
idea of saying pleasant things to peo-
pie when they are living and not wait
ing until they are dead to speak well
of them.
Mr.. Sears said that praise and taffv
were a great ways apart, and that
praise could not help but do good to
the struggling man, who only needed
the sympathy of his fellow man to put
him straight again.
Mr.. Sears interpreted his lecture
with a good many anecdotes bearing
on his subject, and kept bis audience
in an excellent humor. His audience
was keenly interested and seemed to
enjoy every moment of his lecture.
He came to Montgomery Yesterday
from the Chautauqua at Dublin, Ga,
