Ihen Wllbanks, without a let-up In tho
Incessant, rapid. flro drone of his sermon,
jumped down Into tho aisle nnd charged
toward the icar of the church. There tvai
no need of hla Jumping on the benches
and running around the church, for his
hearers already had been worked Into a
frenzy of religious enthusiasm, but the
evanrrell&t was tired by his message nnd
he went through with It.
When the call came for converts to
come up nnct shako hands with him half
the audience tried to get thero nl once
and an Impassable Jam ensued. Wll
banki and C'orrothers took charge of the
situation and finally managed to start
the onverts down tho centra aisle nnd
up the side For a half hour they came,
singing, shouting and clapping their
hands. They had "pot religion."

It would take too long to get It ready for

NEGROES THRONG TEMPLE.
Vnrlck Templo had tho greatest crowd
In Its history last night. They started to
lino up outside the door at C 30 o'clock, n
few minutes after the conclusion of the
afternoon prajer service. The doors
were opened at 7 o'clock Less than un
hour later every beat in the church
proper and tho Sunday school roomi ad
joining was taken, and at half-past S
It was estimated that 2000 persons were in
the building.
Impelled by the crush at the doors, they
Jammed down into the aisles along the
walls throp oi four deep. They sat on
each othei's knees In tho benches, on tho
edgn of tie platform, on the window
sills, and In tho gallery tho crush was so
thick It will almost Impossible to move.
This crowd, the largest Willbanks has
had since he came to this city moio than
a week ago, heard one of his most stir

gave them "The Handwriting on tha
Wall" in such fashion that more than 100
hit tho trail, or. In his own phrase,
"struck the pike "
The outstanding dramatle moment of
the sermon came after thp evangelist had
been talking about three-ciuarters of mi

with h'n usual running fire of negro
stories and comment, his customary ver
bal wallops at "rotten Philadelphia gin,"
and suddenly he turned and started to
climb up tho organ.
From a chair he stepped lightly to the
organ seat, from there to a ledge over the
keys. Clinging there like a steeple Jack
he hegan to trace the fateful message of
the "handwriting on the vvnll " By the
time he had finished 'and dropped easily
back to the platform women were shriek-

An nddress by tho Rev. George W.
Trultt. of Dallns, Texas, opened the meet

to pick up pins An unworthy pulpit Is
tho supremo scandal of Christendom."

ilia light for the establishment ot a
svstem of premiums and bonuses to em
ployes In the Government arsenals and
woikshops, which Congress refused to
provide for In the army and nnvy appro
priation bills, greatly weakened Mr. Tay

Mr Taj lor began his study of scien

tion ot 1000 and later the Elliott Cresson
gold medal of tho Franklin Institute Ho

Industrial workshop as an educational
Institution, nnd In 1803 his article on
"Shop Management" appeared in a lead
ing scientific periodical and was later
translated into many languages.

coming from an old Quaker fnmlly. His
father was famous as a lawyer, having
graduated from Princeton in 1810, while
his mother, Emily Winslow, was a dele
gate to tho World's Antl-Blavery Conven
tion In London. After preparing himself
for Harvnrd in the private schools of
France and Germany, Mi1. Taylor suffered
trouble with his eyes, competing him to
glvo up nil thought of further study
for a time He entered the mnchine shop
of the Mldvnlc steel plain as nn ap
prentice nnd became chief engineer. It
was at this time that 'he received his
M. E. degree from Stevens Institute
He received tho degree of Sc. V. from
the University of Pennsylvania, and the
