DAN CRAWFORD
THRILLS AUDIENCE
African Missionary Tells Of
His Work Among Natives
Of Country

Seldom has a public lecturer held
his hearers more spellbound than did
Dan Crawford. last evening, in his
intensely interesting lecture, Think
ing Black" which was delivered to
an audience which packed the First
Presbyterian Church to the doors.
Mr.. Crawford, who has been doing
missionary work in Africa for the
past twenty-three years, is the first
white man to "burrow." as he ex-
pressed it, into the African field
since Livingstone's time. and after
having spent 20 months boring in"
he has gone oven further into the in
terror than did that great explorer.
Mr.. Crawford's special work during
those years. has been the translation
of the Bible into the African Ian
guage, and It was in the financial in
terests OF this work that the lecture
was given last night
In the pulpit with the speaker we're
DR.. George Edward Reed, Caleb +.
Burchenal. the Rev. J. Ross Stonesi-
fer, pastor of the church and the
J Rev. J. p. Holloway, pastor Of Sec
ond Baptist Church, who pronounced
the benediction.
or magnetic personality, with a
spontaneous enthusiasm that won his
audience, Mr.. Crawford held his audi
! ence-one minute almost bringing
tears by a pathetic recital Of an Az
rican funeral cortege and the sac
rificing love Of a widow, who had
been "Christianized" and who sub
mitted to being burned alive rather
than let six Young maidens be burn
ied-which is the usual procedure
and next bringing shouts of laughter
by some humorous story.
"Yes"-said Mr.. Crawford, in be
ginning his lecture. 1T was a sill,
thing called a train which brought
me away from the land OF the blacl
man. Think Of it-after travelling L
miles day on foot through the Afri
can jungle, you are put in this sill
thing they cali a train, showed alon'
at a high rate OF speed and then yol
are put out again-and that you cal
travelling"
Mr.. Crawford vividly depicted thl
character of the black man, and hi
keen insight even though lacking II
education. Americans needn't thinl
they have every thing" he said.
Interspersed throughout the lee
ture was the main thought OF the vic
tory which Christ had won in Hi
death on the cross. the teaching o
which had meant through Mr.. Craw
ford, the chriBtianizing . Of the ma
tiyes.

"Some of the men fell free OF the

The admiralty commission was made
up of Captain Behnisch, Lieutenant

BERLIN, Oct. 17.-Early this after
noon rs men we're killed and one
fatally injured, including the crew
and an admiralty commission, who
were aboard the new Zeppelin L-2,
which exploded and burned in mid-air
al the Johannesthal Field.
The aluminium frame of the dirigi-
bic, which was all that reached the
ground. was so hot that rescuers at
first could not so near. This caused
the first erroneous estimates of the
dead. All of the bodies we're horri-
bly, mangled.
Troops we're dispatched 10 the ayia-
tion field from all directions to check
the crowd that gathered and military
ambulances hurried to carry away the
bodies.
The fire-blcached. twisted aluminium
frame of the L-2 lay on the field
where IL fell. like a huge skeleton,
bent into an almost unrecognizable
mass of scrap metal, while in the
aerial sheds. 500 yards away, lay the
charred and mangled bodies of the
dead. covered with flags and guarded
by soldiers. One German naval Off
cor was the sole survivor Of perhaps
Tho most awful tragedy of the air, in
history. Physicians have hope Of his
recovery though he was frightfully
burned and mangled.
The rescucrs found all Of the bodies
burned. The body of the officer who
had been pilot. charred and blacken-
ed. was found still at the remains of
the Wheel which bad been in the first
cabin.
KAISER SAYS IT'S GODS WILL.
Kaiser wilhelm. who was at Bonn,
when appraised Of the disaster, said:
ut is Gods will. Germany must be
strong and bear courageously."
He was utterly crushed at first,
overcome with emotion. Later he
tclegraphed his sympathy to the fam
lilies Of the victims. The Empress
Augusta did the same.
The tragedy is expected to cast a
damper over the celebration at Leip-
sic tomorrow, arranged to commemor-
ate the defeat OF Napoleon by the Aus
trians and Germans in 1873 II is
feared, too. that It viii paralyze the
aerial passenger traffic Of Germany
in which 1000 people have been car

was considered coming leader OF fam-

Sulzer was delegate at tho rer-
locratic National Convention of 1896.
at which convention William J. Bryan
delivered his famous Gross OF Gold

that was the way the East Side or
New York City regarded him. Sui

be sure, Tammany Hall had played

but also a large part Of that success
was due 10 Sulzor himself. He was
enormously popular with his constitu

Sulzer. To this extent he was inde-
pendent Of Tammany, although Tho
knew that II Il had not been for
Tammany the followers Of Sulzer
would never have had an opportunity

One reason for Suffers popularity
Was his frequent assertion that he

that he represented the common peo-
