Alliance in the Gospel Tabernacle at Elghtn

for foreign missions was made Inc touai
amount collected at the morning ana AFTERNOON
services was S71773 so. This exceeds by sew
eral thousand dollars the collection OF last year
and ts one of the largest amounts ever collecteo
n one dav at a church collection for foreign
missions.
In contrast to former years, when the congre-
CATION was wrought up to an almost hysterlcal
pitch and threw gold watches and diamonds on
the stage of the tabernacle IN lieu of money.
this years collection consisted entirely Of money
and pledges.
The services yesterday marked the closing ex-
ercses OF the annual convention of the alliance.
The Rev. A. B. Simpson. president and general
superintendent of the alliance. was in charge.
and II was through his special appeals that the
money raised
In the morning the annual missionary sermon
preached by Mr. Simpson Most Of the large
contributions were received at this service There
were single contributions Of Sc 40 $1,000 and
$1,000. two Of 5000 and one of $1,000. The
morning collection was S653O3. AS the large
gifts were announced the choir burst into song.
Mr. Simpson in his missionary sermon re-
ferred to the Rev. DR. Charles H Parkhurst,
and said:
There is my dear old friend DR.. Parkhurst
He is defeating his new church to-day He
has invested much thought and effort in at
tempting evangelize New York. 1t has been
just like cleaning the streets Of snow. think
the good doctors experience has perhaps soured
him a little. He seems, perhaps, to look sneer-
ingly at some of the efforts of his fellow men.
Now, my brethren. there is something better
than all this for you to do.
Mr.. Simpson then asked for contributions. A
table was carried 10 the platform for the ac-
countants. Ushers were sent through the crowd
ed auditorium, and pledges and cash were col
lected every side.
Mr Simpson said he believed that in the next
few DAYS further contributions would be re-
