Paris Bids Farewell.
hn nifed praan IR1ra


Paris, April 28:-Colonel and Mrs.
Roosevelt and Kermit and Ethel,
left this morning for Brussels, where
they are due to arrive this afternoon.
Paris is great, France is great, and
/ have had splendid time. / will
never be able to thank you enough, .
was Roosevelt's parting message to
Parisians.
An immense throng gathered to
cheer the former president Of the Unit
ed States as he made his departure.
Numerous illustrious Frenchmen were
at the station to bid the colonel fare
well. Colonel Roosevelt expressed him
self delighted with Paris and especial
ly with his yesterdays experiences,
when French soldiers fought cannons
were wheeled into action and belched
forth their flame and a regiment of
dashing cuirassiers charged against
smoking batteries, all in honor of Colo
mel Roosevelt when he witnessed
wonderful sham battle at Vincennes.
1t was great day for Roosevelt, for
1t saw him In the saddle again and
SSSAtAAS puttlcy even IL WAS make
believe affair. In the way OF thrills,
however, the affair almost equaled the
real thing, and as the battle ended
with the charge of the cuirassiers the
coloneps enthusiasm got the better of
him, and he rose in his saddle ana
cheered.
The maneuyers simulated an attack
ing army consisting of a regiment of
chasseurs-a-pied, regiment Of dra-
goons, two battalions Of infantry and
a battery of artillery in pursuit OF a
retreating army whose retirement was
being protected by three field batter
les, a battalion OF zouaves and a bat
talon Of dragons.
The attackers advanced in open for
nation under protection Of the guns,
making frequent rushes, the machine
guns attached to each unit firing at
the end Of every rush. AS the rear
guard Of the retreating army fed be-
fore the charge Of the dragons the
spectacle was thrilling one.
Colonel Roosevelt warmly congratu-
lated General Dalstein upon the dash
and go displayed by the troops and the
admirable fashion In which the opera
tions were executed.

PREPARE FOR
COMING OF
EVANGELIST

DR.. Biederwolf, for whose meetings
here the united churches have been
planning for some weeks, opened his
campaign In Akron, Ohio, Sunday,
April "a, in the midst Of great enthusi-
asm Mr.. Ulman, the chairman Of the
Executive Committee there, writes:
"The work here assumed such proper
tions on the very first night that the
building was entirely too small, five
hundred were turned away in the rain;
we must prepare larger tabernacle. -
With the approach of the time for
the Auditorium meetings to begin, en-
thusiasm Is rising, persons a bit indif-
ferent at first, after learning Of the
great work DR.. Biederwolf is doing in
the West, are becoming eager to have
him come.
The fine spirit of harmony among the
churches in this movement and the deep
religious interest in the union prayer
meetings and cottage prayer meetings
have already repaid the efforts expend-
ed in preparation for the climax in the
month of May. The churches are today
stronger spiritual forces than they were
month ago. The revival of interest in
religion among the members has already
begun.
Prayer Meeting Last Night.
Last night two large prayer meetings
marked by a profound religious spirit
and feryent prayer were held. Rev. G.
w. Hanson led the meeting in the
Swedish Congregational church. Rev.
j. II. Northrup, the meeting in the
Methodist church.
At these meetings the prayer circles,
which were started at the Young Peo-
ple's meetings Sunday night, were ex-
tended. Many took the cards, on which
they are to write the names of individ-
uals for whom they shall especially
pray. These are to be placed in their
Bibles and names added from time to
time. Today scores Of men and wo-
men, who know it not, are the objects
of tender prayers by loving friends.
Finance Committee Met.
ssEha Finance Committee met at nine
0 clock last night in the Presbyterian
parlor. Over so per cent Of the amount
to be raised before the meetings begin
was in hand and there are two weeks
left. This money is for the incidental
expenses and none Of it for the evan
gelists. They simply have free-will
offering at the end Of the meetings.
The music committee met in the lee
ture room of the Methodist church i'm
after the prayer meeting.
The members reported the names of
who had promised to sing in
the chorus choir. To date there are 1876.
but the committee viii continue to get
pledges that there may be big choir
every night. The rehearsal will begin
in few days, the hymn books are on
their way from Akron, Ohio
For Cottage Meetings.
Friday night Of this week the
churches will again unite in cottage
prayer meetings all over the city. The
