NOTED COMPOSER OF HYtvlNS
WRITES SONGS FOR REVIVAL
i i i ii i i
Charles H. Gabriel Submits Composition Inspired by
"Billy" Sunday's Sermon on General Allen.
Charles II. Gabriel, composer of more
than 6000 hymns, and tho best-known
writer of rovlval songs In tho country,
visited "Billy" Sunday In the evan
gelist's temporary homo at 19H Spring
Oarden street today and submitted sev
eral new songs for npproval.
One of tho compositions brought to Mr.
Sunday by tho composer was Inspired by,
ono of "Billy's" sormons this week. In
which he told a pathetic story of General
Ethan Allen and his dylnir daughter,
who was ndvlBed by her father to "Btlck
to her mother's Cod." The hymn Is en
titled "Tho Wnys of the World"; tho
first stanza Is as follows:
Tho ways of the world may tempt you
With their Kllttcr and glint of gold,
Ani 1M promises may allure you.
As jou watch its mlrogo unfold;
Falso prophets, the thloes of Satan.
Like amplros cntlco their prey,
But stick to your mother's God,
Her way Is the safest way.

By HEKBEBT ORMONDROYD
(A "BILLY" SUNDAY CONVERT.)
Yes, I'm a "down-and-outer" all rlgVit.
I guess you don't haVe to look twice to
see that, do you? But don't think that
just because I look like a "rummy" that
It was booze that did the business. It
was something elso that put me down,
and the booze just sort of put the finish
ing touches to the Job.
It was like this, I was born In TTybsey,
Yorkshire, England, where my father
worked in the mines. He was a fine old
fellow, and ho always 'nad un Idea that
by working himself to the limit he could
nx things so that my brother and I would
have thlnBs easy after he was dead. And
then there was my mother. That's all
she teemed to think about, too, just how
she could make things nice for us and
bring us up to be good aod-fearlng
men that could look anybody In the face
and know there was nothing to be
ashamed of.
GOOD CHANCE WASTED.
Well, both my brother and I go a good
education, and then we started to work.
I was an expert loom repairer In the
woolen mills, and he was doing work In
another department of the same concern.
Then we got a good chance to go wlt'n
an uncle of ours In the same business,
and everything went fine for a while. We
were able to give money to our father
and mother and had gone a long way
toward being what they wanted us to be.
Then my brother went back on me,
There's no use going Into details, but he
'didn't play square with me and I was
drfven oul I was so hurt and dazed
at first that I didn't realize what had
wasn't long before I had Just about
put the finishing touches to what was
once me. I m nothing but a drunkard
aSd there wasn't anything I wouldn't
stoop to. That was the only way I cou d

That was thp time I came tp Awerlcai

farm. Inspired by the outdoor life he
knew so well, ho began writing; songs at
the age of 13, "Hour by Hour" being his
llrst production.
In tho 45 years that have elapsed since
his first composition, Mr. Gabriel hns de
voted his time almost exclusively to this
work and hns produced such world-wldo
favorite as "Send Me tho Light" and the
"Glory Song."
After attending the tabernacle services
today, Mr. Gabriel will return to Chicago,
whero he will write additional songs to be
used In the Sunday campaign.
Bankrupt Distiller a Suicide
CHICAGO, Jan. 20. Charles Ledowsky,
president of the River Distillery Com
pany, which filed a petition In bankruptcy
yesterday, committed suicide some time
last night on a Michigan Central train.
Tho body was discovered on the arrival
of tho train hero today.
as the other things, only It didn't seem
so hard to forget about my brother since
I had ruined somebody else. too. It was
as though I had revenged myself for
what was done to me by what I had done
to tho girl.
After I had been here awhile I thought
I would siiuaro myself some, so I got a
Job and sent some money to my mother,
but pretty soon It was returned to me
by my uncle, with a letter telling me that
she had died a year before In my brother's
arms. My father had died the year beforo
I left England, but somehow It seemed
worse to know that she was dead.
Well, there isn't much more to tell. I
kept on going along the same old rotten
path nnd I've been Just a plain "good-for-nothing"
evor since. Thore didn't seem to
be much to live for, and I guess being
afraid to die la about the only thing that
has kept me from the short-cuj: across the
great divide.
CHANGED BY EVANGELIST'S TALK.
I say there didn't seem to be much to
live for, but there does now. I camo In
here last week to hear Mr. Sunday talk.
I didn't enro much what he said, but there
was a crowd, and I was curious, I guess,
nnd then It was nice and warm, too. I
didn't even listen to him at first, but then
he begnn talking about God giving every
one n chance to be happy If they will only
repent, and about It's being up to us If
we are to be saved or going to hell. And
then he said a lot about the homes some
of us have wrecked, and thellves we've
wrecked besides our own, and; It got me.
I was crying before he was half through.
It was the first happy moment I had
known for years wnen I weni up aner air.
Sunday called for those who would come
to Christ, and clasped his hand. It may
be too late, but I'm going to be straight
with aod from now on,

Asaf ftn Optimist, Teela IFury of Dam
sel Scorned.
Asa Telton, of Camden Is an optimist
He never worries. He Just takes things
as he finds them. It Is this habit that
has caused him much regret Asa Is In
Jail today because he took a gold watch
which he "Jus' natchllly" found In a pile
of dirt. But It appears the dirt was car
lied from the yard of L. M. Nelson, a
jeweler, of 8 13 Broadway Camden. Nelson
contends that Asa should have known
that the watch came from the store, but
Asa explained to the Recorder that he
"discovered It among a heterogeneous
mass of discarded debris and waa not
tntellexually endowed to consider elch
deducshuns,"
It was learned furthermore that such
deductions would have been somewhat
uncomfortable tp Asa's conscience for the
reason that he pawned the watch In Ques
tion and took one of his best girl to a
party with tho proceeds'. Just here (t was
learned that a woman was In back of
Aea' arrest. It was bis other "best girl."
She had beard of the watch, and, after
smacking her lips In anticipation of the
good things which she bad s, right to
expect on account of Asa's good luck,
she was entirely forgotten,
So she told tho police.

IDLE SAILORfflEN
ALL 'ON THE BUM,'
BUT PHILOSOPHIC
One Hundred and Ten in
Sorry Plight, but They
Have No Families to
Support.
"We are on the bum," yelled 110 sailor
and firemen, members of the Philadelphia
branch of tho Eastern and Gulf Sailors'
Association, today wTien Walter Nlefson,
their agent, asked thorn haw they were
making out In the hard times. The whole
110 wero crowded Into a low, dark room
nt 2d nnd Walnut streets, the union head
quarters. Nielsen said!
"I would be out of work, only I nm
trying to take care of the rest of the
members. Wo aro In bad shape, and I
can speak for the rest of tho members.
Thcro are three German ships laid up
hero besides five other steamships and
five sailing vessels. Commerce Is at a
low ebb and the prospects of an Improve
ment nre not good.
"But It Is different with the sailor from
other people. Tho wages of tho sailor are
so low that ho cannot afford to keep a
wlfo, so the world over tho dka-scn
sailor Is single. For that reason - Is
better able to get along nt a tlm itko
thli than mnny of the shore folks bo
causo most of fhem aro married nnd
havo families that must suitor too when
times aro hard.
"With tho sailor It Is this way. All
the world over ho Is nt tho mercy of the
shipowners nnd Is a hornless, roofless
man nshoro. Any Vessel In this country
Is permitted by tho laws to ship n man
to any port In the world whether he
hns ever been nt sea before.
"Of course, It Is tho business of the
shipowner to mnko nil tho money ho
can from freights nrs) passenger service,
and, of course, when the ship Is lost her
vnluc la covered by the Insurance. The
sailor never gets nny notice or attention.
He takes caro of himself whon ashore.
"Tho sailor will never get Justice until
the laws of all tho countries mako the
shipowner responsible for tho loss of
life. Then, to protect thomselvos, they
will have to hlro only skilled sailors t8
handle nnd save tho ship In times of
danger.
"That Is why I and my 110 men are out
of Jobs. But wo aro all bachelors arid we
will get along better than many lands
men. We will make out somehow."
