DR.. CHAPMAN LEADS
Presbyterian General Assembly
Plans World Campaign
Under Him.
A VAST UNDERTAKING
Every Part of the World to BE In
cludcd In New Eyangellstlc
Effort.

II the plans which the Presbyterian
General Assembly which Is now In
session In Kansas City, Missouri, ma
terialize one Of the biggest evangelis-
tic campaigns If not indeed the big
gest ever conducted from this country
will be started within year. The
plan includes the appointment as
leader of the entire vast movement,
Of the Rev. j. Wilbur Chapman who
led the great three weeks campaign
which was held in this city last jan
uaury DIR. Chapman has so deeply
impressed his personality and vigor-
Gus ability along the evangellstic line
on the assembly that II has in plan
ming this great undertaking turned to
him as the logical leader of the new
movement.
The campaign Is one which Is plan
ned to reach every portion OF the
world instead of being confined to
this country. The immense burden
of responsibility which this will cast
upon DR.. Chapman will test his power
to the utmost. The expenses of the
campaign are to be chiefly borne by
laymen.
The great lay leader of the move
ment Is said to be John IL. Converse.
4 the president of the great Baldwin To-
comotive works OF Philadelphia, who
1 has given in the past few years the
sum of $250.000 to me aid of evange-
/ lical work of this church.
While the campaign has not yet
been voted the fact that the assembly
has gone so far leads to the firm con-
viction that 1t will be decided on defin-
itely and that within a year the first
steps in the work will be underta-
ken.
DR.. Chapman was the executive
head of the campaign which WAS con
ducted in this part Of the country and
has had large experience in handling
movements of this kind. The large
success which attended his work anc
that of his assistants during theil
work here in January Is sufticien
commentary on the ability with Whicf
he planned the movement. Thos'
who met and came to know the mar
when he was here will feel assured
that he will handle this so mucl
greater movement with great success
and attain as much degree of success
to the cause as Is possible.

done for them. The defense set up
the claim that the work was paid for
with kiss.
1t was asserted by the Testers that
the work was done in friendly way
and was not to be paid for. Bonanno
made no demand for pay until he and
Rosie vitro, the pretty 16-year-old
daughter of the Testers, ceased to be
friends.
Mrs. Lester told about bird house
which she said Bonanno had given her
adopted daughter. In his bill the bird
house figures as $35 charge.
She, her daughter and Bonanno
were admiring the house and the girl
exclaimed:
"Oh! how can pay you?"
To this, Mrs. Lester said, Bonanno
replied:
I'D take kiss for pay"
/ Was the kiss given?" asked the
court
Il 1t was responded the witness.
Miss Yitro told the same story. She
said she had done some sewing fol

frequently, and he promised her {

She admitted paying with kiss.
