Sailor Evangelist, laterly return
ed from an extended trip through
Egypt and the Holy Land, will
begin a series of special meetings
at the Baptist church in this city,
beginning Sunday, January 7th,
following a week of prayer by
the members of that organization.
Rev. Dimmick expects to reach
Grangeville by Wednesday even
ing, the Bird. and after few days
OF preparatory work with the
membership will begin the evan
gelistic services on the following
Sunday morning. Evangelist Tay-
Tor has an established reputation
on both continents, and comes
to our midst most highly recon-
mended. The following COM
ments, one from Wisconsin Cen
tenial, of Grantsburg, and the
other from an English paper, will
be interesting reading:
Successful Revivalist.
The revival here has become a
gigantic success. The church is al
together inadequate to hold the
people. Many were turned away
last night who could not get in.
The prayer room is crowded each
night and beautiful spirit pre-
walls. Fifty have made a start
for Christ so far, and we look for
many more this week. There will
be from Is to 20 to be baptized
some time this week and the rest
at the close OF the morning SER
vice next Sunday. There will be
a grand go as you please meeting
Christmas night; the evangelist
will give a short talk and others
will follow, then the ladies will
serve coffee and cake and a good
time is expected. The editor and
friends are invited to this service.
The meetings will close next
Sunday night and the evangelist
will go home for a few days be-
fore sailing for the Holy Land.
The prayers of his many friends
here will follow him. He has
done a great work here and this
has been the greatest revival ever
held in this part Of the state. The
Christian people have been reviv-
ed and many souls saved that we
know nothing about.

H. Bergman, Pastor.
Capt. j. Dimmick Taylor has
left this community for some
place unknown to the writer. 1t
has been shown again that it tax
es Yankee grit to accomplish
something extraordinary. He has
made more Baptists in two
months than any Swedish pastor
here, caused fine church to be
built and still had time to visit
Jerusalem. That's going some

Captain j. Dimmick Taylor.
We have just had a very re-
freshing visit from Captain j.
Dimmick Taylor, the Sailor Evan
gelist, of the United States. On
Sabbath evening he conducted a
most remarkable meeting, which
seemed like an afterglow of the
Moody meetings in this district
so closely connected with revival
scenes.
In these days of drouth it is in
deed refreshing to behold such a
scene as that of last Sunday,
when between forty and fifty peo-
pie came forward quite spontan-
eously to accept Christ as their
personal Saviour.
Captain Taylor combines in his
methods, gifts of sanity, breeziness
and persuasion; and Blackburn
will, at all events, anticipate
return visit with pleasure.

During his stay in this country

his home at Irene, Illinois, U. S.
A., yesterday (Wednesday)-me
with much encouragement in the
work of the Lord. Preaching on
the last two Sundays at Black
burn and Waterloo (Lancs.), his
heart and those of local friends
were cheered and stimulated by
the number of inquiriers who
