and Out Of Church.


Cedar Rapids, Oct. 19.-Shouting
against sin until his voice was hoarse,
pounding against the pulpit until he
broke his watch. Evangelist Sunday
drove home facts and truths to three
tremendous audiences in the taber-
nacle Sunday. He was after the
churches in the morning, but in tha
afternoon and evening he began to go
after the sinners. From now on The
great guns of his oratory will be turn
ed mainly on the sinners. 1t was no
tced Sunday night, also that iiie uis5s;tt;: uis5s;tt;
fewer of his pet slang expressions.
There were a few laugh producing SEN
tences but not so many. Most of the
time he was terribly in earnest ana
he thundered against sin with all his
might.
The tabernacle was well filled in the
morning and almost filled In the aft
ernoon In the evening it was pack
ed and jammed and thousands were
turned away to attend an overflow
meeting at CT ene's opera house,
where the Fifty-th third Regimental
band played and Rev. John M. Linden

The evangelist had been compelled
| to stop preaching Saturday night on
account of hoarseness. His voice was
| in much better condition Sunday
morning, when he preached power
| full sermon But the three hours of
use in the morning and afternoon tried
it severely and Sunday might those who
sat in the back part OF the tabernacle
said they could not hear half of what
he was saying.

CANADA CANAL LARGER
New WeIIand Waterway to Be Extend
ed to Provide Competition With Erie
canaI-Wi'I Be Shorter than Present
Route.

st. Catharines, Ontario, Oct. 19.-
The tentative route for the new Well
land canal enlarged so that successful
competition with the Erie barge canal
can be had, has been agreed upon by
the government engineers. The new
canal will run from Port Colborne to
Fifteen Mile creek. emptying into Lake
Ontario there, instead Of at Port Dali
housie. This canal will have seven
locks instead of twenty-five, which
now make the canal expensive and
slow.
The new canal may be built in five
years. 1t will be seven miles shorter
than the present route. A strong eff
fort will be made at Ottawa to per-
suade the government to pass legisla-
'rton at the coming session to provide
for building the canal so that work
may be begun in the spring.
