When the ordinance was tailed up

Calpln iifieied sweeping amendments
that left nn measiue In the I'm 111 out

In ofleilnghls nmeudmeuts Mr. Cal

when the committee of the whole took

Captain Moll, piesldent of the hodv,
who leliniiulsbeii the cliali to Joseph

position taken bv Mr Calpln was the
sensible view of the m.Utei. If al
lowed to stand In the shape It was
then It would tall of its own weight
If judle iollM. amended the people
might appiove It, although they .lie
now gioanlng undu the weight of tax

the people will not look with fnvoi on
anv kind of .1 bond ordinance at tills
time and that It is 11 waste of effoit
to tinker with it. The plan to elect u
viaduct on one side of the stieet is
but .1 makeshift ho thought, nnd If

ADDRESS BY MRS.
BALLINGTON BOOTH
DELIVERED IN PENN AVENUE
BAPTIST CHURCH.
Owing to tho Unfavorable Weather
tho Audicnco Was Not as Largo
as It Otherwise Would Havo Been.
Mrs. Booth Spoko of Her Experi
ences with tho Churches nnd tho
Warm Welcomo Sho Received from
All Denominations Address Con
tained Many Helpful Thoughts.
Tho unfavorable weathet Inst evening
plevented the assembling of the huge
audience which usually gtcets Mis.
Unlllngton Hooth on her very welcome
visits to this city j ne meeting was
held In the Penn avenue Haptlst church
and while It was attended uj lepic
sentatlve people It was scaicely jib
scarcely us clouded as had been untl
cluatcd. Mrs. Hooth tame In the geneial s
place, and her delightful pei.sonalit
and rate gifts of speech held tho snme
charm for her listeners as of old. Sh
is undoubtedly the most fascinating
woman speaker before the public to
day and much of this is due to her
intcnstl, of pin pose and unshaken be
lief In het mission. Her rich, pene
tiatlng voice, with its pietty accent
nnd her familial, gentle mantlet of
addtessing an mullein c cntranceel het
llstcnets She spoke on the Ameiiean
volutiteeiH nnd Intel spetsed her te
miiiks with miny personal Incidents
that itlNii,s add to the Inteiest of lie r
addresses.
Tlinilt CHIP.P AIM.
She pin tie ulaily emphaslea the fact
that the Volunteers' chief iilm is to
be an auxiliary to the chine lies and
lneldelitally stateel that the mistake
made bv the Salvation ,111m Is In en
deavoring to hold those whom It 1ms
helped Instead of advising them to
unite with some chinch. Tlie leslllt
Is that a vast number of their con
Verts, who llnd the Salvation aimy
methods not answulng to theii spir
itual needs, di f t nwjj into theii old
sins, whin, hail thej ueen eneouiaged
to Join some 1 lunch of their choice,
the might have beioine useful mem
beis of s-ocletj The Salvation .11 mv
is not in p. 11 tic ul, u .sNtnpath. with the
chin e lies and does not leganl the s.ie
lameuts as impoi taut.
While many who Join tin Volunteer
movement become enthusiastic winkers
In It and deslie to devote theii lives
to its aims, others tlnil the conven
tional methods of .some denomination
mote lu aieoid witli their svmpatliles
nnd the Volunteers believe In allowing
them the full pilvlllege of following
the dictates of conscience, and the man
who leels that Clod calls him to be a
Haptlst Is sent thither with hearty good
wishes, or if ho wants to be an Hpls
copallnn he is eneouiaged to unite with
that sec t.
HHIt OWN r.XPl'KIHNCF.
Mis Month Hit 11 spoke of her own
delightful experiences with the
churches, that she Is wannlv welcomed
by all denominations, speaking one
night In a Piesbtctlan church, the
next in ,1 Congiegational pulpit and
thus on thtough the list ' Hverjbody
is so good to me" she said, with sweet
slmpllclt that caused lur heateis to
wonder how ovujbody e oulel be any
thing else A little incident which le
tounted her experience in an HpKeopal
chin ill was chatacterlstltatlv told. She
steioel In the lofty pulpit among the tlih
carvings nnd elaborate details of a
chinch very high in its tendency, the
choi nils, tne Intoning, (the Mirpllied
c holr, the soft liarmonv In music and
suiioundings nppalled hei as she
heard her own volte In the conveisa
tlonal tone ulwa,s employed in her
public addresses
Suddenly their came to her the tia
ditions of an Inhet Ituni e of eentuiles
dining which her uncestors had been
cletgjmen of the church of England
Het father left no son, but It was fit
ting that she, as his only reptesenta
tlve, should tut 11 up In an Episcopalian
pulpit after all
Tlie temalnder of htr remarks wete
Illled with Intei esting, helpful thoughts
and gave .1 dear understanding of the
beautiful woik undet taken by the
Ameticau volunteers.
