Address at the Florence Mission
to Be Given "Why Do You Wait ?"
the Evangelist's Text Last Night.
Several Decided to Wait No Longer.
At the evening meeting over
SOU crowded once more around
the teat unable to train ad
mission. Mr. Weedoo and Miss
John sung the dnet "Come Unto Me"
and it Droved a most appropriate selec
tion Dreeodinor the sermon which tbe
evangelist based on tbe words "And
uow Lord what I wait fori and said;
TranHfer the words of the Psalmist to
your Individual cases and ask yourselves
thequestion, w oat am l waiting rorr way
am 1 not a Christian? Why am I not eu-
iovinir uardon. rest, peace, hope and bless
iug of tiodr Probably 75 per cent, of this
vast audience are without nope or heaven.
Then, my friends, what are you waiting
ton There must be some Hindrances so.
with the help of God, let us And out to
night what we are waitins Ior.
Are you waitins Ior Uou to do something
more in order to save you r men you are
waitlnn iu vain. Wneu tie crave His son
on Calvary He gave His all and emptied
Heaven. He did it willingly and was com
pelled to stop and say "no more," so, my
friend, you are waiting in vain. Are you
waiting ior more preacning r u so, if is
quite unnecessary, as the more preacning
you get the more hopeless you become. If
I had my choice, 1 wonld rather preach to
tbe beatbens than to tbe people ol ecran
ton. who have beard the gospel for years
and are still waiting. Preaching to them
is like throwing water on a duck s bade.
There is hope for converting the heathen,
but with you, who are waiting, your
hearts are constantly hardening.
QUESTION OF RIGHT OR WRONQ.
Are you waiting for feeling in the mat
ter!' It is not a Question ol feeling but a
question of right or wrong. I remember
hearing of an old negro lamenting his sins
and his master told nun to 'desist, tnat lie
was not so bad, but overseers aud meu like
blmeeit bad committed great sins, towhicn
the old slave replied that when the planter
went out shooting ducks he always chased
the wounded birds first, and tbe dead birds
afterwards, and so the devil did not trou uie
about bis master but was alter mm, a
wounded one. And so, my friends, there
are manv "dead ducks" here tonight who
satan does uot trouble about, those whose
hearts are hardened by waiting.
Are von waiting for mote pleasure in
siur Are you waiting to kill your sainted
mother by your profligacy until you eee
her dead face tbe result of your "waiti-
ins!'" Are you waiting, you drunkards,
until dragged down from your manhood to
the cutter, a hopeless case? u so you n
tret there soon enough. I was sneaking to
a man last night who showed me a bottle
nud said: "Mr. Schiverea. I ouly live to
fill and empty this bottle." And yet 1 was
to d at the Dickson works mat tuey naa
tried to cot a man to do bis work and
could not find such a competent machinist;
and. oh. Godl this man the slave of the
distilled damnation. It makes people
wonder tbat God will accept the devil s
wrecks. Are yon waitiug for more
faith? Put the same faith in
God as vou put in your mother
your husband, your wife or your brother.
Why not f Are you waiting for better
clothes? Are you waiting for God's time?
Now" is God's time, not tomorrow, my
dear friends let me urge you, entreat you
don't delay any longer let this be tbe
niilit. tbe place tbe occasion. There are
at least a thousand waiting here tonight
and let me tell vou, my friends, it is the
height of insanity to wait longer. The
desire gets less and the possibility gets
less. Give uo your waiting, your procaiu
nation, vour delay and let this be the time.
say, "I am going to do it to-night" take
tlie nana ol uou now ana may oe oiess
you to cease your waiting tonight and
accept salvation.
AT THE AFTER MEETING.
An after meeting was held and sever
si accepted tbe invitatian and knelt
at the penitent bench.
In tbe afternoon Mr. suhiverea made
incisive remarks as to "Backsliders
and ridiculed tbe notion of "Annual
Backsliders," who require a
every year to keep them saved,
the hardest thing on earth fo
Backsliders," who require a revival
it was
for a child
of God to be a backslider. If a man
was a child of God he wonld not say
that he was tifed of peace, good pros
peots or good conscience and the other
blessings oi spiritual me ana ueuuer
ately tarn his back upon them. Back
sliders were never "converted to tbe
uttermost " No power on earth or in
bell could make a man a backslider if
be pnt his trust inOod.
SCHIVEREA. MISSION NOTES,
This afternoon a collection will be taken
at the tent toward Scbiverea work
abroad.
Evangelist Schiverea is due at Montreal,
Canada, the middle of October to carry on

address another meeting at the Florence
mission, several ol the eiris wno be ad
dressed knelt at the "penitent bench" last
night at tbe tent.
So many pennies were given in the offer

begged bts auaience laetnignt to give some
other com, lest pennies snouia go out or.

Enrrv O'Noil will be at the Academy of
Mnsic this evening presenting an Irish
comedy drama entitled "Irish Inspira
tion. " This clever young comedian has for
some years been noticed as a leading man
witu stock companies ana stars. He is
the typical Irishman of the Bouoicault
school, merry, full of music and dances or
fights in true Don ny brook style. Two
years ago "Irish Inspiration" was pro
duced in New York city, and made a hit,
the critics pronounced it equal to "The
Shaugbraua" or "Colleen Bawn." The
supporting com. any has been selected by
Air. u Neil's manager from tne past avail'
ble comedians of New York. i '
One of the most marvelous men of the

No man of our times has excited so much
interest or been more written and talked
about than Sandow, tbe extraordinary
athlete. The eminent Dr. Surgent, or lioS'
ton, who examined Sandow declared him
to be the most perfect man physically.wbo
has ever lived. Muscles were fonnd on hi
body tbat had never before been discov
ered on any other bumau being. Tbe mus
cles ol bis stomach have the appearance
of a corrugated washboard, ana quite as
interesting ana astonishing as nis teats ol
strength is the exhibition which be gives
of the marvelous control which he has over
his muscles. The entertainment surround
ing Mr, Sandow has been carefully se
lected from the principal cities in Europe
ana America, and includes the following
arti9t: "The Lucifers," grotesques;
silly Van, comedian; Tom lirowu, the in
mous double-note whistler; Amann, Eu

Tuesday and Wednesday evening. The
Syracuse Herald says of it: "This re
markable production has met since its first
night as an amateur performance of the
Boston Cadets in the spring of 1893 noth
ing but success. To Mr. Rice's ability as a
creator of amazonic gorgeousness and
clever stage business the continued popu
larity of tbe extravaganza is doubtless
due. The most rare of stage properties, a
"new gag," appears in Mr. Rice's perform
ance this autumn not once but several
times. The setting is rich, and the cart
includes a number nf clever and justly
noted specialty artists. Aside from the
cant and setting, tbe dim thread of story
appeals most successfully to popular en
thusiasm." ' Gentlemen.

THE WORK IS STOPPED
Elmimrst ' Boulevard Officers Called a
Ball
on Shoddy Bridge Work
IRON IS OF INFERIOR WEIGHT
The New Bridge at Nay Aug Falls
Condemned by the Officers of the
Elm hurst Boulevard and May Be
Torn Down Not Up to Standard
of Specifications Iron too Light
for Safety.
The officers of the Soranton and
Elmhnrst Bonlevard company have
diseovered that some of tbe iron put in
tne new bridge at Nay Aug t ails is not
adequate for the strain which will be
upon It to insure public safety and
bare stopped tbe bridge builders from
progressing further with the work. It
is charged that the bridge company is
not nviug np to Us contract with tbe
management of the boulevard.
ibe sneeincations for tbe bridge were
prepared by Theodora Cooper, of New
York clty.an authority on bridge build
ing, and a premier artist in his line.
ibe boulevard company aeomtel his
plans and specifications and save oat
tbe contract to tbe Pottsvi'.le Bridge
company, tbe structure to be bnilt in
acsovdapce with these plans and under
ine supervision of the bonlevard com
pany's engineer. C. C. Mattes.
The contraetspecified tbat the bridge
was to be completed not later than Au
gust' 1, but there was no artiole of for
teiture inoluded in the contract The
bridge company did not begin work on
tbe bridge until late ia August, at
least a fortnight after the date named
in the contraot for tbe completing of
tne piiage.
CPININQ WILL BE DELAYED.
If a weak quality of iron had not
been, used tbe boulevard wonld be
thrown open to the public by Oct. 15,
as tt is the delay has thrown many
dollars away from tbe treasury of tbe
boulevard company by missing the
trafflo which tbe pleasant days of the
end of summer and beginning of an
tumn would bring, and they feel that
tbey have been badly treated. The
ouly recourse left Is a suit for damages.
Colonel U. G. Scboonmaker, in con
versation with a Tribune reporter
yesterday, said that one would be
brought.
On a tour of inspection lately the
officers of tbe boulevard noticed tbat
in the iron supports the material was
far lighter than the safety of tbe
bridge to the traveling publio required.
Further investigation is now going on
to determine if any of tbe other work
is lighter than called for, and nothing
will be accepted by the company ex
cept a full compliance with the speci
fications of Theodore Cooper.
Tbe. boulevard company reserved
the right to cancel the contraet with
the bridge company at any stage of the,
progress of the work if the contraot
was not being properly fnl filled. This
is what will very possibly be done, and
tbe bridge as far as it is built may be
condemned and the contract awarded
to' some other firm.
OFFICIALS ARE ANORT.
The officials of the boulevard are ex
ceedingly wroth with tbe Pottsville
company, and in the meantime tbe
traveling public will be deprived of tbe
use of 'ibe boulevard.
