Rev. A. B Hobbs told The News last
night that the number of conversions
at the Burk- Hobbs revival had reach
ed the 100-mark and that the interest
was fine. He predicted that the meet
ing here would DON prove one of the
most successful they had held for
some time. Steve Burk continues to
preach stirring sermons, as his sub
jects would indicate. About 1900 men
and boys heard his famons lecture on
"Leaving the Old Home" at the
Tabernacle Sunday afternoon and
when the question was put for all who
had been benefited by the lecture
to stand the vast audience stood al
most as if one man. Rev. Burk liken-
ed his personal experience to that of
the Prodigal Son as related by parable
of the Savior. Sunday night it was
estimated that 5000 heard his sermon
on 'tThe Devil and His Razor."-

Mr.. Robb stopped over in Farming
ton yesterday from Fredericktown.
He says he spent three days in Madi-
son county and attended three cele-
brations at Marquand, Frederick
town and Mine La Motte-on the
Fourth. making speeches at the first
two. Last week he made a canvass
of Bollinger. Mr.. Robb reports that
he met a large number of the Demo-
Gratis in these counties, and is very
much encouraged with the situation
in his campaign for the Democratic
nomination for Congress. By the as
surances of support which he received
in these counties, and is receiving
throughout the district, he thinks his
chances for the nomination have
grown steadily and feels reasonably
sure of success. He says he will con-
tinue his campaign actively until
August LIST, and by that time will have
thoroughly covered the district
