MILLER ~ • By Special Correspondence Moohanicwbttrg, Pa., Feb. 13. Sweeping in his statements, and com pelling In power, Evangelist E. C. Mil ler has been conducting a revival here which has attracted the atten tion of the entire countryside, and resulted in bringing almost 1,000 souls to Christ, during the past Ave weeks. The converts include many promi nent and well-known persons. The Rev. Mr. Miller has won the hearts of the people through his personality and vigorous warfare against sin. There is nothing of the slangy, sensational manner in his methods, but he vehe mently denounces sin, and false doc trines; while he tenderly and plead ingly entreats the sinner to see the peace and joy in a Christian life. That the Rev. Mr. Miller has a future be fore him as one of the great evangel ists of the country, is the concensus of opinion. He is frequently compared to "Billy" Sunday by persons who have heard the latter, in Ills mag netism and ability to convict souls of wrong doing. Jn his "booze" sermon which brought out the largest num ber of men ever known in this place, lie so thoroughly aroused them to their duty that full three-fourths of the 2,500 men present announced the determination to stand for prohibi tion, and many who had signed liquor licenses sent word to Carlisle to have their signatures removed. His work here is the one subject of conversa tion and the good which has been done cannot be estimated.
