 Not for many years have New Brit ain audiences witnessed such stirring scenes as those of the last few nights at Trinity church. over 160 converts have been made and the in- terest deepens with each meeting. So great was the enthusiasm last night that the leaders determined to continue the meetings for two more nights The Wesleyan team leaves, but Mir.

 Miller will speak after Mir. Starr tonight and will preach tomorrow night on "The Parting of the Ways"
