"TABERNACLE WON'T
HOLD 'EM," SUNDAY'S
ANSWER TO CRITICS
Evangelist in Merry Mood
Despite Yesterday's
"Frost" "You'll Laugh
the Other Way Pretty
Soon," Is His Challenge.
rnnM a BTirr connnsroNhENT. 1
PATEHSON, N. J., April 7. - "Billy"
Suhdny breakfasted heartily on asparagus
this morning, and whllo ho was cnllng
talked I'atcisoti ntul tho levlvnl. lie was
feeling better than on itny other, tiny
elnco "hlttliiR'" tho silk city nnil tho bl
trial of his cvnticcllstiu carper, lie
"Joshed" cvclyboily niut even thins.
"Yesterday was n frost," he lead, and
laughed. "Say, some of you New York
nnd Philadelphia 'spoof nrtlMs are, as
Mr. Hamlet would say, 'up nRnlnst tho
proposition to spoof or not to spoof.1 Go
lo It, hos, bo to It.
"America; Uroadway, New York; llrond
ay, Patereon, and Chestnut street, Phila
delphia, will ho InuKliltiK the other wa
pretty soon," he went on. "Paterson's
little old tabernaelo won't bo able to hold
'cm, tho folks will bo fighting for a chance
at tho 'trull.' Perhaps wo sot a bad
start, but wo won't need extra Innings
to mako a clean-up hero for Clod."
TRIBUTE FIIOM SOUSA.
Ho chuckled and pitched Into another
helping of asparagus, saying he'd preach
this nfternoon his sermon "Jacob Limped"
and tonlsht "Yo Have Not Passed Thla
Way Before." Then ho talked about his
friend "Marchnian" Sousn. who bad said
of "Billy" last nlslit, ".My young friend
here, all tho ministers agree, Is u good
baseball player, and all the baseball play
ers agree bo's a sood minister."
"Billy" uasn't a mite discouraged be
causo many people arc of the opinion that
this city Is "chilly to 'Hilly.' "
Tho mill peoplo hero liked Sunday bet
ter today when they rend that bo bad
prayed for a revival that would send tho
men of North Jersey homo "with their
pay envelopes full, none of tho kalo left
behind In tho boozo Joints"; a revival
that would send men home "to kls. In.
btead of damn their wives," and one that
would "put clothes on the backs of tho
wives and tho kiddles."
That prayer was lust whnt tho mill
peoplo of Pntcisou wanted. It was just
what tho people wnnted who aro Interest
ed in putting- out of business tho city's
i saloons.
In each of the 11 wards of this city,
k sreat prayer meetings wcro held this
nornlng. Hundreds of mill bands at
tended them.
WHNT BETTER LAST NIGHT.
Sunday preached to a crowd of about
7000 persons last night. Tho nudlence was
more enthusiastic than In the afternoon.
The music went better also, as tho choir
of about 1000 was thoro to help with tho
sliming. In the afternoon, as usual, ex
cepting on Sundays, there was no choir,
and persons holding special admission
cards alone occupied seats In the choir
loft.
Tho sermon was one of thoso that the
evangelist preached during tho first week
of his Philadelphia campaign. The topic
was "Oh, Lord, Rovlvo Thy Works." It
was one of the sermons In which ho soes
after the different "Isms" nnd scores tho
"highbrows" na tho Pharisees nnd publi
cans of today.
:S,000 1IAVK IIKARD III.M.
Tho total attendance for tho day was
"fjC about 12,000 persons. Mill workers were
ijj'J present In largo numbers at night. In
H me luiernoon me oueriiig amounted to
ii nnu at nigiii it was skm. Both col
lections go toward tho expense of tho
campaign. Tho total offerings toward ex
penses for tho two days Sunday has
preached amounted to 2l'3I. The total
attendance for tho four servlcos tho
evangelist has conducted In tho mill town
was about 2S.000.
Tho Ilev. E. II. Emett. ono of Sunday's
assistants, who has been here several
weeks preparing for tho rovlval, said
that the offering nnd attendance for tho
two days compared favorably with tho
figures for tho first two days In any town
tho size of Patcrson In which Sunday has
conducted a campaign.
Sunday announced tills morning that he
would visit Philadelphia on ono of his
Monday rest days during tho Pnterson
campalsn, and would spend another Mon
day at Lehigh University.

HARRISnURG. April 7. A "ticket

today by Ilepresentatlvo Dunn, of Phlla-

"Ono theatre ticket agency In Phila

"This company In 1913 did nn nctual

theatre patrons pay In excess for their
amusement.
"It will bo iiowb to many theatre pa
trons to know that this ngency claims to
be able to name tho attraction during any
week In any first-class theatre or opera
house In the world. This brings out
nearly the power back of such an or

BACHELOR TAXW0ULD
HIT PROMINENT MEN
Some Protest and Even Sug
gest That Spinsters Should
Have to Pay, Too.
Philadelphia bachelors are quaking In
their boots.
A bill putting a premium on their single
blessedness has been Intioduced at ltarrls-
burs. Many who have successfully side
stepped the little blind god year In year
out fear that the end has come. The
ta may bo such a heavy nno as to
make matrimony Imperative Tho meas
ure Is no laughing matter, and a sreat
fear Is upon the unmnirlcd men of tho
rlty that before they cm assemble their
foices to contest the b'll It will to rushed
through without so much ns a by your
leave.
Philadelphia Is ilch In bachelors. Many
of the mint prominent nnd most ellslblo
men In the city have succeeded In, keep
ing thcli bends out of the matrimonial
noose until now. Senator Boles Penrose,
Judge Mayer Sulzberger, ex-Governor Ed
win S. Stuart, C. Willing Hare, superin
tendent of tho V. O. I.; Dr. Robert Lo
Conto and scores of others aro uh flno
"catches" ns ever (dipped through tho
Angara of a designing match-maker.
If tho new bill becomes n law these
men will bo nmong the sufferers. Hear
what some of them have to say about It:
"To bo a perfectly fair bill," said Mr.
Hare, "there should bo a clause Inserted
Including spinsters. Then I wouldn't
mind It nt nil. Of comse, the cry might
nrlso that spinsters do not mako ns
much money ns most bachelors, but tho
answer to that Is that the question Isn't
ono of earning capacity at all: It's simply
a means of stimulating mntrlmony, and
I'm suro If such a Inw were put Into
effect the Marriage License Burcnu would
do a rushing business. It would bring
men and women together for mutual pro
tection. I shall make no protest ngalnst
It," he concluded cryptically.
I'Jx-Governor Stuart, on tho contrary.
Is of tho opinion that any measuro tax
ing unmarried women would not only
Ijo extremely unchivnlrous, hut vory
wrong.
"I'm perfectly willing to nbldo by what
ever tho Legislature does In tho matter,
but 1 most heaitlly dlseappiovc of any
bill which will mnko things harder for
sefl-supportlng unmarried women. We
men can stand It more euslly."
Asked what ho would consider a fair
amount to levy for tho privilege of en
joying single blessedness, Mr. Stuart In
timated that ho did not consider Jl a day
too much, though he wished It definitely
understood that ho was not of that typo
of bachelor commonly known as "con
firmed." Dr. Robert I.e Conte, with a wry ex
pression, characterized tho proposed
measure as a "fool law."
"A man has no protection ngalnst tho
depredations of tho Leslslaturo theso
days," said he. "They treat a man c
actly as though ho were an automobile
and put tax on him. I think It's out
rageous, but I Biipposo there'll be nothing
to do but pay It."
Up to tho present time, no concerted
move lias been made on tho part of tho
bachelors of tho city to proceed to Hnr
risburg en masso to protest against the
passage of the measure, but If a move Is
made to push tho bill, who knows but
that such a radical step will bo taken In
tho Interest of keeping tho rights of mero
man untrammcled?
