RESULTS OF REVIVAL MEETINGS.

hEouLiD VT REVIVAL
Sunday was the last day of the re-
vival services held during the past
three weeks. The morning and after
noon services were we'll attended,
every seat being taken. In the even
ing standing room was at a premium.
The sermons were forceful and elo-
quent and forceful, They were list
ened to a%ttentively, the people e
ing to realize that it was the last OPP
portunity to hear the talented evan
gelist. The music to was of high
order. At one of the services Mr..
and Mrs. Moody sang a beautiful
duet.
The general impression seems to be
that much good has been accomplish
ed along religious lines. There is a
disposition on the part of nearly every
one, no matter what their religious
views may be, to give encouragement
to those who have determined to live
a better life. There were 339 profess
ed conversions. The names the diff
ferent pastors have are a S follows;
Methodist 10, Congregational So,
Evangelical rs, Lutheran y, and
Episcopal 8. There was also a Bap
fist list. In addition to these there
were anne for out of town churches.
The money necessary for the ex-
penses was raised by Tuesday of last
week and no evening offering IA
taken thereafter. Sunday morning a
free-will offering was taken for for
Evangelist Lowry. 1t was in charge
of c. L. Brownell, assisted by a corp
of helpers, and amounted to 1886.
Those who were instrumental in
the Inauguration of the movement
express themselves as completely sat
isfed with the meetings and results.
They feel grateful for the way
christian people, without regard to
church denomination, rallied to the
support of this, the greatest religious
enterprise De Smet has ever known.
They appreciate the way the people
of Lake Preston, Manchester and
other nearby towns attended, and
aided by their presence and encour-
agement. Everywhere there are
words of praise for Evangelists Lowry
and Moody and Mrs. Moody.
Evangelist Lowry left on the east
bound train Monday morning for his
home at Cedar Falls, La. A large
delegation of the chorus and others
were at the depot to e him off. As
the train pulled in a hymn was sung
with orchestra accompaniment, while
good-byes were said. After a few
days rest Mr.. Lowry will leave home
for Arlington, in the eastern part of
this county, where a large tabernacle
has been erected for a series of meet
ings to begin Sunday, March lst.
Prof. and Mrs Moody are resting at
the home of A. McCarty. On Friday
they will leave for Arlington.

New York April S.--The passengers of
the steamship Pretoria, which arrived
this morning from Hamburg, were GER
Etainly glad to get ashore.
They had been on board the vessel ever
since March q, when the Pretoria sailea.
and had experienced the longest trip of
any transatlantic liner for a good while.
The trip of eighteen days included q stop
of twelve hours at Halifax for coal. Capt.

on running short OF fuel between that
port and New York.
It was continual plunging into westerly
gales that ate up the vessels coal supply

twenty-feur hours ending at noon last
Thursday. when a fierce #northwesterly
gale ragged. On this day the vessel could
sometimes only fight her way into the
gale a distance of one knot an hour
Tremendous seas swept over the port

/ Besides the terrific weather. the Pre-
/ toria had other experiences. On March
l24. when the vessel was clearing the Eng
lhsh Channel, Dora GiIlar, young woman
in the second cabin, committed suicide by
/ leaping into the sea.
No One Sees Her.
No one on board saw the act, but at
breakfast time she was missed and a
search of her room showed her belongings
disordered and other evidences to bear
out the suicide theory. The officers
thought she jumped overheard about
o'clock in the morning A gale was blow

young woman said she was very despond-
ent She was coming to this city to visit
relatives
The Pretoria on her tedious trip had
one of the largest consignments of wild
animals. snakes. and birds that has been
brought into port in years. The animals
were carried in the tween decks forward,
and included a six-year-old African lion,
five leopards from Calcutta, four hyenas.

were the men in charge of the animals.
They were Ernest Kampe and Hermann

and rolled in the seaway things were
sometimes very tieklish in the tween
decks All the animals. birds. and
snakes were in wooden boxes, even the
lion.
When the ship lurehed these boxes
sometimes shifted. ana at times crashed

quiet, but wien the vessel pitched heavily
