OUT OF TOWN PEOPLE
HEAR ME-. EVANGELIST

Visiting delegations from out Of the
city were at the Methodist revival last
night. Rev. r. H. Crowder of the East
Chicago Methodist church was accom-
panied by large group of workers
and assisted in the service. Many of
the Merrillville people were present
for the second time The evangelist
gave a striking sermon on, so it Well
With Thee? is 1t Well With Thy Hus-
band? is it Well With the Child?" He
pictured the results of Goddess fam
lily life. Sometimes. he said, 1t is the
woman who fails, more often it is the
man. If either of them has not the
fear of God in the heart it means dis
aster somewhere. To have the children
misled by parents is a crime against
their souls. It is not well with that
parent who has not prayed for his
child. Many boy has been permitted
to run the streets and learn to curse
and swear before anything is said to
him about Thou shalt not take the
name of God in VAIN
Many girls have been permitted to
| run with evil companions until proof
of their Illicit loves is in evidence be-
| fore word of warning is given them.
| The evangelist could not have preached
| a more timely sermon to the people
/ of Hammond. Prof. Rice sang with
great tenderness, Would You Believe
| and Jesus Receive if He Were Standing
| Here?" Several persons came forward
at the call for prayer.
| Tonight the Methodist Brotherhoo cd
will rally body. and seats will be
Preserved for them. The sermon will
be on, Weighed in the Balances" Many
are expecting that the attendance OF
men this evening will mean a new de-
| velopment for this interesting series
of meetings.

the 'muckers,' whose sole duty 1t is to
bear away the stone and mud that the
drillers have blasted from the hiIlsides.
Besides, they know that when these 'aris-
tocrats' enter a dance hall it's time
for the 'muckers' to leave. These drill
runners, you see, are men who have met
death and escaped with missing hands
or fngers-veritable daredevils. Often
for the fun of it they carry loose sticks
of dynamite in their pockets"

The last Of them went slouching into
"Helrs Kitchen" and we followed.
Through a wide, low ceilinged room,
crowded with bull necked laborers and
leering women, dim lights showed ftfu1ly

this rough counter Of pine boards leaned
men and women, drinking. On all four
sides Of the room were round, shiny
topped tables, and about them were gath

painted women. In corner of the place
a young negro sat swaying as he banged
away on an old piano. Sometimes he

Quirk," lord Of all the aristocratic drill
runners and dynamite, had arrived. he
stood there for . moment, an uncouth

Instantly the wild confusion began
anew, louder, more exaggerated swag-

stopped ofttimes to sneer into the faces
Of men and women. Then he made for the
bar.
"Come," said my companion. "we'n get

Here was the most lawless camp oi

halls of the lowest type, where laborers
hard rock men, drill runners, gamblers
Slavs, Huns, Italians, Poles, Russians
Spaniards and negroes danced and
caroused with camp women to the jangle

from the looming hills.
Up the road ahead of Us We saw heavy
bodied forms lurching toward distant
saloon, whose blazing windows discolored
the snow a sickly yellow. Now giants
with reeking bodies issued from the dark
ness-dangerous hulks, the bad men,
of the camps. We heard their hobnailed
boots crunch on the snow, and occa.
sionally the growl and mutter of angry
conversation.
They are fastening toward 'Helrs

the officer. They're in 4 hurry because
