 Lauds Billy Sunday.
 John E. Lamb of this place has joined the ranks of the admirers of Billy Sunday, the famous evangelist, and after hearing him preach he is ready to vouch for him. MT. Lamb attended one of the meetings of the celebrated preacher last Saturday in Paterson, N. J.
 The huge tabernacle in which the meeting was held was crowded and many had to be turned away. The capacity of the structure is estimated at about 10000.
 MT. Lamb was greatly impressed with Sundays style and he was not inclined to agree with those who claim the evangelist plays too much to the gallery and makes his hearers Init the trail'' by his spectacular man nerisms instead of the doctrine he breaches. Mir. Lamb thinks Sundays personality is his chief power. His sliding about the platform, jumping on chairs and the many contortions he goes through seem to be natural to him. MT. Lamb thinks, and are sim ply methods of illustrating the anec- dotes he recites.
