Washington stopped often on his way
TO Morristown. and to the ring on the
big tree in front of the house he tied
his horse. The ring is now no longer
visible, the tree having grown about it.
But old residents of South Orange saw
it when they were young, and their
grandfathers handed down the stories
of Washington'sF visits at the old house
and OF the ring where his horse vas
tied.
During he Revolutionary War. while
Washington and his troops were sta
toned at Morristown, he frequently
went to the top of the Orange Noun

visited Usal Ball, who built the house

SUNDAYS ADVANCE GUARD
ARRIVES THURSDAY

The Billy Sunday meetings, for
which preparations have been
made since early autumn, will be-
gin on Christmas night. All ar
rangements were completed at
meeting of the Ministerial alliance
yesterday for the opening session.
RE- James H. Shields, president
of lhe alliance, in a brief address
viii Introduce the evangelist and
tn fight for personal and civic
righteousness will be on. The
meetings will begin at 1880. the
big choir beginning the musical
program shortly after z.
This will be the largest choir
ever directed by Fred Fisher, Sun
days chorister and 40 per cent
larger than has ever assisted in a
Sunday revival. The platform will
hold OFT numbered chairs for pas
tors wives, with 20 extra chairs
for the pastors of Spokane, max
ing raised platform at the north
end of the tabernacle seating 1900.
The rapid work of the architect
and organizer. A. P. Gill, finds the
5000 seating accommodations
nearly completed. Scores are al
ready visiting the tabernacle.
Four of the evangelist's party
will arrive next Thursday after
noon and will be met by the local
committee. Friday morning at
daylight, Mr.. Sunday and the rest
Of his party will appear ready for
the greatest series of meetings
ever undertaken by the ex-ball
player.
Rev. Carl Bluhm says:
ut is safe to say no one mans
arrival in this city has ever been
so well advertised as that OF Mr..
Sunday. The whole city is ex-
pectant and a straw vote taken on
the northside indicates that seven
out Of 10 people intend to wit
ness the opening work of the
meetings. Billy Sunday has had
. great fight in Ottumwa, widely
known as the most open and law
less community of the state Of
Iowa. but Sunday won the bat
tie. That certain influences in
Spokane propose to see that Mr.
Sunday earns all the gold and
glory he will get here goes with
out saying, as that crowd has been
routed elsewhere. 1t also goes
without saying that this crowd will
lose their scalps here. Billy Sun
day is always at his best when in
the heat of fight. Taken all in
all, these meetings are sure to
pass into the life of this city with
eout a parallel In the influence and
upiift of personal life and there
fore in Its influence on the bust
