ALTAR IS CROWDED
SCENE AFTER REVIVAL SERVICES
SUGGESTIVE OF WESLEYAN

The revival at st. James Methodist
church continues with increasing in
terest. Dr. waterheld, OF Clay Street
church, has been preaching with spir-
itual force and power.
on yesterday morning DIR. Water
field preached to the sunday school, and
his sermon was so strong that when
the invitation was given the altar was
crowded with peniteuts and many who
could not find room at the altar occu-
pied the front pews. Among the con-
Verts were many from the adult Bible
classes and quite humble of boys and
girls from the Junior department. The
scene was very impressive and sug-
gested the old Wesleyan days.
Rev S. |. Batten preached at the
morning service hour with much ten
derness, and there is every indication
Of a great revival
There viii he services nightly this
week and Or Waterfeld will preach.
His sermons and methods are not at
all sensational. but he reaches for and
finds the conscience.

John Armstrong Chaloner. of Rich
mond and Merry Mills, missed coll
lision with an automobile by the skin
of his teeth last night while en- route
to the Rex theater to deliver a lecture
on the Mexican situation and other
timely topics.
AS he was jogging along in a horse
drawn taxi, with the negro driver half
asleep. an auto clipping off fully
twenty miles an hour rounded
corner and would doubtless have
smashed the cab into smithereens, had
not the cabman wheeled his horse
quickly to one side, out of harms
way. while the auto which contained
several passengers sped Its way on
ward apparently needless of the
danger to which 1t had subjected the
Tells of Incident.
Recounting the incident later dur
ing his lecture, Chaloner was unable
to recall the exact location of the
near-accident. but he thought 1t was
in the vicinity of the Jefferson hotel.
SO flustered was the cabman by his
narrow escape that he drove his pas
senger several blocks out Of the way
before finally reaching the theater.
Up in A1bemarle, Chaloner told his
audience. which filled every seat In
the theater, autoists were more eau
tious for in that country he always
carried gun" strapped TO his Nip,
ready for action, In event of collision
with them.
Chaloner happened to recall the
auto incident while detailing some of
| his experiences with the courts in New
York relative to gaining possession OF
! his estate Some of his enemies up
! that way, he said, no doubt wished at
! times that he would be killed by an
| automobile or in some other effective
| way.
And tina. reminds me- he said.
/ that l came very near being killed
/ by one of those things while | was on
my way to the Rex tonight"
He then proceeded to give his audi
! ence an account of his narrow escape.
For Moncroc Doctrine.
Discussing Mexico. he came out
strong. in support of the Monroe doc
trine and against any JOINT action by
! the powers In enforcing It.
He was in favor of furnishing the
constitutionalists with all the arms
they wanted SO that the war might be
fought to a finish.
As for any danger Of Intervention
on the part Of European countries in
event Uncle Sam were to adopt that
L..,,paA- he4-sa4a- HAT -tfee-I-n4tad- States
need have no fear.
For" he shouted. Eve can lick
creation. if it comes to show down.
! A moment later, he qualified this
/ statement by declaring that we could
accomplish such feat provided the
war were fought on this continent"

light a variety Of formations which
have been hidden from the human eye
for centuries, and which are now at

they carried away quantity OF rare
