DRAWS CROWD
More Than Eighty Autos Parked
Near Tabernacle Farmers Night"
Last Saturday Night.
TWO WEEKS VET REMAINING
Sunday Afternoon Meeting for Met
Largely Attended, Sunday Night
Largest Crowd of Series.

Denison is in, the midst Of a great
cvangelistic campaign. DIR. Forsythe
and his party arc more than fulfilling
the expectations Of the union OF
churches which invited them to this
city. There is intense enthusiasm and
interest throughout the entire com
munity and this has extended into the
country and to many of the surround
ing towns. In the two weeks yet re.
manning there is every prospect tina:
a revolution OF sentiment towards
christianity will have been wrought
i'll this locality.
DR.. Forsythe has made special Of.
fort to enlist the boys and girls of the
high school and of the normal college.
On the evening when the students
We're the special guests at the taber-
Iacle there was great enthusiasm.
The young folks formed an extended
parade some blocks away from the
tabernacle and marched with banners
and high school and college yells to
the assembly Their entrance was
greeted with applause from hundreds
OF hands. As showing that their SYM
pathies and influence were with the
revival short addresses We're made Gv
Superintendent Humphrey and Profes-
scr VanNess. The subject OF the SER
mon that evening was the experience
of Jonah in trying to get away from
doing his known duty. The incident
was handled by the speaker in way
to bring out many new thoughts and
ranked as one Of the best sermons
which has been given. AS the result
of this evening and others. the stu
dents OF the high school and the nor
nal college have been thoroughly en-
listed to exert their influence to have
their associates become christians and
some of the strongest and most per,
sistent workers are the young people
who have just experienced a change
of heart toward the bible religion and
who are now anxious to have others
do the same.
On Saturday afternoon there was a
great railysok the children OF the sun

TWO MACHINES COLLIDE.
VIM. Brandt, Jr. and Alfred Anderson
Cars Figure in Bad Smashup
North Of Oenicon.

Two machines, one driven by VIM
Brandt, .Ir.. the other in the hands OF
Alfred Anderson, collided north o:
Denison on the valley road to Schles'
wig on Monday forenoon, and resulted
in the Anderson machine being badly
damaged, though the occupants OF both
machines escaped injury.
Just how the accident occurred IS
not known. but it is Thought that Ike
drivers became confused when they
attempted to pass each other at a
point about six miles north OF Denison
1t was fortunate that neither one Of
the young men were hurt in the mix
up. The damages to the Anderson
machine will amount to considerable

Earling r. Garrison, who is now
student at Cornell college at Mt. Yer
non, Iowa. came home Thursday last
to visit his parents and renew Old
friendships in the city. He is looking
and feeling we'll and is very much
pleased with the school. He left Sun
day morning for Mt. Vernon. 1t is
rather strange coincidence that in
1865, fifty years ago, Earrings father.
T. J. Garrison, of this city, was
student at Cornell. Mr.. Garrison has
In his possession letter which ne
wrote in April, 1865, while he was at
Cornell to his brother, who was then
with Sherman's army. In this letter
he says that when the news came that
Lee had surrendered the students
posted notices that at 6 p. m. that
night on the college campus they
would bury jeff Davis in the last ditch.
and the program was carried out be-
fore all the students and large crowd
OF people. No doubt there are many
who will remember this when their
attention is called to it. The letter al.
SO says that 100 students were then
at Cornell 1t was received by Mr..
Garrisons brother while he was still
in the ranks and by him kept and re.
turned to the writer in the original
envelope in which it was sent. 1t may
be interesting to some OF the younger
generation to know that the letter was
addressed to Mr.. Garrisons brother in

NO GAME At LAKE CITY.
but Owing to misunderstanding
Game Docs Not Materiaiize

The football game between the Den.
ison high school and the Lake City
high school teams, which was to have
been played at Lake City on Friday
afternoon, did not materialize on ac-
count of some difficulty in regard to
officials.
Prof. J. J. Johnson informs the Re-
view that arrangements had been
made previously for the officials and
he supposed that these arrangements
would be carried out. Upon arriving
at the football field he inquired about
the referee and was told that he had
not arrived. The Lake City people
we're in favor OF allowing some one
from that place to referee, but Pro-
fessor Johnson did not propose to do
this. 1t was suggested that one of
the Lake City professors would referee
one half and Professor Lynch of the
Denison schools would aeferee the
other half, but this caused consider.
able jangling and finally Professor
Johnson decided not to play the game,
so the boys returned home.
Next Saturday the Denison team
goes to Council Bluffs to play the high
school team of that place. This will
probably be the stiffest game of the
season for the locals. but those who
are in close touch with both teams say
that Denison should be able to win If
they play as good a game as they have
in the past. Denison has always suf.
fered with little stage fright when
they have played the Bluffs, but Coach
Weiss believes that this will not be
in evidence on Saturday. Many .peo'
pie from here are planning on accom-.
panying the team down Saturday.
