USED AS PULPIT
Evangelist breaches Thru :
Trumpet to a Curious Assem-
!! i blage Far Below.

Parkersburg, ". Va, Oct. 7.-As If
inspired by the hope Of eternal saliva
ton, and imbued with the belief that by
only his own course can humanity be
saved, the Rev. James Joseph Tecumseh
Copen, the mountain evangelist, has
preached the doctrines Of his creed to
a large audience from derrick erected
Thru a, trumpet he was heard by the
assemblage that stood on the banks Of
tho Little Kanawha river, 500 feet be-
low him. Curiosity rather than search
for salvation induced the thousands of
persons who heard the gray-haired apos-
tie to assemble at the base of the pic
turesque spot. $780,
When he arrived at a stopping place
Mr.. Copen suggested the love the Lord
has for cheerful givers and asked for a
contribution. He delegated a number
of his followers to take up a collection,
which they did The amount received
on the first round was insufficient, and
after the rugged preacher had been in
formed Of the amount he asked that
more be given the cause Of Christ. An
other collection was taken, the amount
being over 5000, most of which, goes. to
Mr.. Copen s fund, he having but few
Followers with whom to divide.
The announcement which was made
some weeks ago by the evangelist that
he would walk tight rope extending
across the Little Kanawha, and that he
would dive from the rock from which he
would preach into the river, attracted
many persons. Both performances came
off as per schedule, but neither was at
tended. by accident, as many had pre-
dieted
The tight rope was tied to boughs Of
trees on the river bank and was about
.en feet above the ground. The dive
was made from board about twenty
FIVE feet above the water.

enough to discourage young man.

Of the oldest and wealthiest farmers in
Winnebago county. He has placed these
suits In the district court to straighten
out his sons affairs, but has arranged

said:

United States is so intense that whole

lated 1t is terribly mistaken idea
! that the Italian government is in favor
of this wholesale emigration. The gov

who desire come to the United States,
but every effort is put forward to pre-
vent coercion being used to get these
people away from their homes. It is
only fad, this unprecedented emigra-
