GREAT REVIVAL
SWEEPING CITY
THOUSANDS ATTEND MASS
MEETINGS
THR0NGS ARE TURNED AWAY
Hopes Of Campaign Leaders More
Than Realized and Interest
Is Growing Con-
stantly
THRoNeS ARE TURNED AWAY

Even the hopes OF the most sanguine
of the revival campaign leaders were
more than fulfilled yesterday, when
the three first great mass meetings of
the campaign were held.
Evangelists chorus choirs ministers
and hundreds of enthusiastic workers
united in a mighty effort to make the
three great meetings of the day Sue
cessful, and the result was such as
has never been seen in Los Angeles
before.
The religious spirit seems to have al
ready taken possession of the people.
The churches held their regular ser
vices in the morning and they were
better attended than usual; but it was
dent what great throngs of people were
desirous of hearing the evangelists.
Men, women and children were all
provided for.
At Temple auditorium, where the men
had gathered for mass meeting the
building was filled from top to bottom,
and even in the upper balconies there
was hardly standing room. When the
doors were closed there were still hum
dreds who were left outside.
At the women's meeting conditions
were the same and the children ex-
pressed a like enthusiasm. Even in
the district meetings the buildings were
unable to hold the crowds, and over
flow meetings were held in smaller
churches, where the efforts of local pas
tors met with the same success as the
evangelists were having.
Los Angeles herald., 1905-01-30
Hundreds sign Cards

Over two hundred cards were signed
in the mems meeting alone. Men sat
with bowed heads and listened to the
words of DR.. Chapman. With tears in
their eyes they pressed their way to the
platform that they might shake the
hand of the evangelist. A chorus of
II will" II wilr', came from every
part of the audit orium in answer to the
request of DR.. Chapman for the ex-
preston of all those who wished to
lead better lives. The rich man and
the poor man were as one before the
power of his words, and even those
who had seen the work in other places
expressed wonder and surprise.
The seats on the platform were filled
with prominent ministers and business
men, and ranged behind them in rows
were the members of the choir.
Charles F. Allen, the chorus leader,
stood at the front of the platform and
led not only the chorus but also the
audience through the various hymns as
il he were controlling one voice.
