SPOKE AT FIVE ENTHUSIASTIC
MEETINGS IN THIS CITY
YESTERDAY.
Paid Respects to First District Sen.
ator-OeliVered Powerful Talk at
Afternoon Meeting.


DR.. J. Aspinall McCuaig. the noted
engeuics reformer of New York. who
recently conducted a successful series
OF meetings in this city and who has
since toured thefstate. speaking at
the principal cities, concluded hii
West Virginia campaign yesterday.
Three meetings were held in the
First Christian church, at the morn
ing service at 1890 o'clock. an after.
noon meeting for men. at 3. and an
evening service at $3.50. Twice Dr.
McCuaig spoke in the Fourth Street
VI. +. church. addressing women at
4:3O o'clock, and the congregation at
the evening services at 1890.
With eloquence and pathos, paying
a tribute OF love to his fellowmen who
are walking in the straight and mar.
row path and taking bitter fling at
certain state senator for the oppo.
sition he has taken in the legislature
on questions for the uplift of huNan.
ity. composed the heart-to-heart talk
delivered by DIR. McCuaig yesterday
afternoon at the First Christian
church for men only. And there were
scores OF men present in nearly all
walks OF life who we're told the only
way by which to make Wheeling a
better. purer and more cody city.
When he closed his appeal dozens
went forward and shook the hand OF
Dr. McCuaig telling him that they
were with him for a purer Wheeling
The meeting was not the largest OF
the kind ever held in this city, but
what II lacked in size IL made up I'm
enthusiasm. which was demonstrated
by the applause given when he made
"bull's-eye shot" that went to the
hearts OF his listeners
Dr. McCuaig never seemed in bet.
ter shape for such a subject than yes
terday afternoon. He drove his
points home with hands raised above
his head and bringing his feet with
much force upon the rostrum: while
at times he kneeled in bringing out
the points Of a story such as that of
the Good Samaritan I'm helping his fel-
bowman. and in telling OF a ship cap
tain saving rs lives at one time In
relating these Incidents he brought
out the points OF the stronger or more
moral man saving those who are
weaker and more deeply in sin than
they.
