FIRST OF SUNDAY
PRAYER MEETINGS
Five Thousand Persons Attend Big
Pro-Campaign PRAYER Meeting
at Tabernacle.
OMAHA MINISTER'S SPEAK

The big tabernacle erected for the
use of Billy Sunday was nearly filed
last evening when huge prayer
meeting was held, led by Rev. Welsh,
Billy Sundays chief assistant. The
meeting was begun with song. and
songs from the specially prepared
books were sung by the congregation
and the huge choir for half an hour.
The choir section was entirely filled,
and It was announced by those In
charge that many applications for
places in the choir were being re-
ceived, but that no vacancies now
exist.
On the side west OF the choir q
section is reserved for the use of
ministers of the gospel, and many
prominent divines from Omaha and
from surrounding towns occupied
seats reserved for them in that sec
tion.
Every one OF them was deeply Interested
I'm the meeting. and II seems probable
that the section reserved for them will
be none too large to hold the representa-
tives Of the various denominations whom
Mr.. Sunday finally arirves
Omaha Pastors Speak.
After the half-hour Of song the conRre-
cation was addressed by several prom
inent omaha pastors, and also by Rev.
Mr. Jones of Council Bluffs. The Omaha
pastors who spoke are: Rev. A. ], Nor
ris, Rev. c. w. McCaskill, Rev. F. K.
Pamp and Rev. A. c. Douglas, who was
In charge of the meeting, and has been
at the head of the neighborhood prayer
meetings that have been held In the
city for the last several weeks Rev.
Welsh, Mr. Sundays representative, as
sisted Mr. j. +. Carnal in leading the
singing, and addressed the assembly
at the close Of the meeting, at the con-
secration service.
Aside from leading the choir, Prof
Carnal sang a solo, which was heard
with remarkable clearness throughouA
the entire structure. proving that the
acoustics of the hall are what they were
said to be.
No definite idea could be gained as to
the number OF people present at the
meeting, as the seats were not entirely
filled and the visitors were scattered all
over the place. but Rev. Walsh. who has
had considerable experience at Judging
large audiences. said that a conserva-
tive estimate would place the number
at about 500. This evening another
meeting will be held in the big shed, and
those in charge seem quite sure that tho
meetings will grow larger as they
progress.
