SALVATION NOT FREE
ACCORDING TO TABLES
AVERAGE COST OF CHICAGO
CONVERTS rs 5000.
Mormons Pay Most With Quotation of
$500 Each and Volunteers Are Low
est With $5-Other Denominations
Vary from $3.50 to $150-Atlanta
Cost Is 25 Cents. - -

Mathematics is being applied to sal
vation. That the cost of salvation in
Chicago is higher than in Atlanta, Ga,
has been revealed in figures given out
by ministers and evangelists Of nine
different denominations. Rev. E. II.
Peacock Of the Tabernacle Baptist
church in Atlanta, who said that it
costs 81 to save a soul in Chicago, while
in Atlanta the expense is only Is cents,
fell far short of the mark as far as
Chicago is concerned. ..--z..
. ...>.+ Cost Is High.
Instead Of 81 the average cost of
converting Chicagoans amounts to more
than 5000 for each convert. The most
expensive souls are those saved by the
Church of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day
Saints (Mormons). 1t costs, the Nor
mons $1,000 for every Chicagoan
brought into the fold.
The Volunteers of America come
nearest to following the Biblical in
junction that salvation shall be with
out money and without price, because
it's converts cost the general treasury
of the organization only $5 apiece.
How Report Stands.
Here is table of denominations and
tho cost of each convert.
The Minneapolis journal., 1906-07-22

of the Chicago Mormon mission, said
he had no faith in converts who cost
only 25 cents.
s3My experience has been that those
25-cent converts that the Rev. Mr.
Peacock spoke Of don It stick, "'said he.
"We have to pay an average price of
ST, 800 for every convert we make and
they are the kind that stay with us.

Gentry Bros Street Parade.

One of the many features of the Gentry
Brothers shows. which viii give two per-
formances daily next week at u and 18th
streets, is the grand street parade. The
procession will move from the show
grounds al 10 o'clock sharp Monday morn
ing, covering route of the principal
streets At the beginning of the circus
season this year there was movement on
foot among the principal clrcuses, including
the Gentrys. to abandon this part of the
exhibition. owing to the enormous expense
of carrying the paraphernalia. Gentry
Brothers would not agree to the proposition,
they are stanch believers In the street
parade. They have arranged a pageant for
this season that far excelS all former ef-
forts. comprising nine complete sections.
A galaxy of new and novel features is
introduced, and the large and varied col
lection of animals from almost every cline
and zone is displayed, including what is
regarded as the finest collection of ponies
and dogs in the world.
