SIX WEEKS REVIVAL CAMPAIGN
RESULTS IN HARVEST OF.
OVER 1000 SOULS.
ALMOST $4,000 FOR
EXPENSE OF MEETINGS.
While Prediction Was Made That Con-
versions Would Reach 10000 Mark,
Sunday Is Not apponted-Evan-
selst Leaves for Chicago; Gill to
Reach Marshalltown This Week.

Evangelist w. A. Sunday closed his
six weeks revival in Springfield. ILL.,,
Sunday night. 1t was a fitting finale to
the greatest religious upheaval ever
known in the Illinois capital city.
The number responding to the invi-
tation at the conclusion of Sundays
sermon, which was one Of the most
powerful yet delivered, sWelled the
grand total of conversions to more than
1000. At the Friday night meeting 267
persons went forward, and over 200 on
Saturday night. Entire families were
been collected for the current expenses
OF the campaign.
About What Sunday Expected.
MIR. Sunday says the results Of the
meetings are just about what he eX-
pected before going to Springfield. He
had been assured by people there that
the harvest of souls would reach 10000,
but according to the evangelist's state
ment he had seen too much of SPRING
field during his visits to Bloomington
and Decatur to dope it out that way"
altho he fervently prayed for such a
result and worked for it. He said he
had been further assured that he would
find the ministers of the city together
and he did-frozen together; but this
campaign had, if nothing more, thawed
them out and the work of this cam
paign has been given an impetus that
will continue for weeks, months and
Years.
Sunday Leaves Springfield.
The evangelist and the immediate
members of his family left Springfield
this afternoon for Chicago, going by
way of Petersburg, where NIr. Sun
day will preach one sermon, tonight al

menced there. The other members OF
the Sunday party remain in Springfield
to participate in a grand concert to.

With every seat in the spacious din

with representative business and pro-

weekly luncheon of the Commercial
club was held this afternoon Enrnusi-
asm in the future of the Wal,a Walla

w. Langdon in speaking on "The Fu-
ture of the Small Tract" Saying that
1t requires enthusiasm to bring any
enterprise to a successful finish, Mr..
Langdon urged club members to en-
thuse over the brilliant prospects of
this section and lend their efforts to-
ward bringing about a transformation
in the farming methods now in vogue.
"As the wheat industry developed
and supplanted stock raising in the
past, just so fruit culture and diversi-
fled farming will take the place of
grain growing in the future, continued
the speaker. "The transition has al
ready begun. The big farm epoch is
fast nearing a close. 1t has been amply
proved that almost every fruit and
vegetable under the sun will grow and
mature in the Walla Walla valley, and
yield a profit far in access Of the
summer fallow practice of years. But
three things can retard this develop
ment. Transportation facilities must be
improved, irriga ion projects must be
financed and land owners must be
shaken loose from their holdings. The
solution of each of these problems is
at hand. The electric railway has made
its advent in the valley and will revo-

which has simply been revolutionized
by the modern show window Window
dressing is not fun, as many would
think. Far from it. 1t is nerve-t trying
and brain -tiring labor.
"But of recent years progress has
been made which has even surpassed
the optimistic. This is an age of spe-
cializing and in the decoration of the
retail store windows the man who spe-
cializes along that line is being prop
erly placed at the helm, for the days of
placing merchandise to appear like
rows of soldiers is past The great
Importance of showing up the merchan-
disc can best be realized when we call
to your attention the fact that the
leading retail merchants of the entire
world are aporopriating annually vast
fortunes for window dressing.
'It might be well to mention some
of the essential features of a WELL
dressed window. In my opinion sim
plicity should be ever the keynote. The
maxim. cleanliness is next to Godli-
ness, is as applicable to the show win
dow as anywhere. Rain streaks. fly
specks and dirt have spoiled the effects
of many windows, otherwise well dress
ed Good lighting is a feature not to
be overlooked. Taking the Morter-
Wheeler company's Main street win
lows, for an example: They are me
dunn light, wood panel, and ii dark
goods are to be shown, I invariably
plan to have some light-colored false
background, and place it near enough
the back of the window so that it will
not be in the way of merchandise, and
yet throw the goods into strong relief
thereby bringing best results. The
time for leaving a display on exhibi-
tion varies. with the different lines of
merchandise, and one may be guided
by the condition of light also, as daint-
lily colored fabrics should not be long
exposed to strong sunlight"

THREATENS LIFE OF
HIS LITTLE 4-YEAR-
OLD COUSIN.
Tries to Throw Suspicion by
Threatening to Burn
Himself.

Endeavoring to emulate the example
of the BoyIes in the famous WhitIa
case, Leonard houT, eyed 20, yesterday
attempted to bIackmaiI his uncle. Sam
Miller, proprietor of the Milton nurse
ry, out of $1,000 by threatening to kill
his 4-year- old daughter; and in order
to throw off all suspicion from him
SELF. said that ne would also burn his
nephew-himseIf-at the stake.
Yesterday morning Mr.. Miller re-
ceived letter written in an unknown
hand which stated that if the sum OF
$1,000 were not left at certain spot
near the 0. r. & N. tracks, the threat
of killing members of Miller family
would be. carried into effect. The cheek
was drawn at once, but after talking
the mat er over with differen. friends
and notifying Sheriff Taylor of Pend
Teton of the matter, it was decided to
set trap for the cu'prit and capture
him if possible.
No hing came of this however for
suspectine something of the sort no
trace of the blackmailer could be
found.
At an early hour this morning young
Roup rushed into the house Of his
uncle, Mr.. Miller and swore that he
had been held up by four masked men
and being blindfolded had been car
ried into the country. His manner was
so suspicious, however, that he was at
once suspected and after being put
through the third degree by Sheriff
Taylor, the boy broke down and con-
fessed that he was the author of the
missive and had been planning the
coup for days.
The lie that the boy wove was a
clever one and showed deep thought.
In order to make his uncle believe that
he had really been murdered no SOON
er was the letter delivered than he hid
in the basement Of his grandfather's
house, which is vacant at the present
and remained there until this morning.
The letter had been written over
week ago but not having the courage
to mail it, the young abductor waited
until yesterday.
Nothing has been done to him as yet,
but he will probably be released owing
TO the fact that he has already re-
ceived sufficient punishment from the
scare that was given him.
