NOTED LONDON
PREACHER HERE
Rev. DR.. Pearse Will Lecture
Tonight in Brandywine
Nj. E. Church
4 MOST ELOQUENT CLERGYMAN

The Rev. Mark Guy Pearse, the
famous London preacher. who recent
" arrived in America, visited this city
today and this evening he viii lecture
in Brandywine NJ. e. Church, Twenty
second and Market streets. His sub
ject viii be: Some Old Folks at
Home
For fifteen years DR.. Pearse was as
ISOLATED with the Rev. Hugh Price
Hughes in the West London Mission
In a city where the most eloquent
preachers in the world are to be found
Or. Pearse soon forged his way to the
front, and for more than a decade he
preached every Sunday morning to an
overlooking congregation in st. James
Hail. In 1908 and 1904 Or. Pearse vis-
tied Canada and the United States.
The largest churches We're too small
to hold the crowds that gathered to
hear him He produced a profound
impression by his eloquent and rare
humor He possesses a genial per-
sonality, is intensely human. a born
artist an inimitable story teller. and
Ia fascinating preacher. He is one of
the most original characters before the
public today
DR.. Pearse leotured to crowded
house at the Madison Avenue NJ. e.
Church, in Baltimore. on Tuesday
evening.
Speaking with voice and mannerisms
on that occasion much like those Of
the Rev. c. Ernest Smith, he told
story after story descriptive of Eng
land and English life. He asked a
restrospect to the grandmothers of the
nation and said he hoped to see the
time when King Edward would call
upon President Roosevelt or that the
President would have the honor Of a
visit from King Edward. adding that
he switched his remark to avoid hurt
ling any sensibilities.
One of his stories was about young
man who was about to take the jour
ney from Lands End to London when
such a trip was the subject OF prayer.
The congregation had already given one
midweek prayer service to petitions
for his safety, when the fact that the
traveller had a wife was announced.
Prayers We're asked for her. One old
man demurred. "The Lord takes care
Of man and beast" the old fellow in
sisted.
The Young Peoples Societies of
Brandywine Church are trying to give
the people entertainment of the high
est order and to reduce the indebted
ness on the church as well. Tickets for
the lecture this evening will be on sale
at the church. They have been placed
lat the moderate price of S5 cents.
