THURSDAY EVENING,
around the stump and chasing: him out I
or St. Louis."
"The negrro is not like the white i
person, he said. "When the negro gets '
religion he likes to shout and leap. And
when Ira preaching I gets 'em shout- !
lug and jumping all over the place." I
And he dill. So effectively did he !
preach the gospel that more than 100 |
of his 400 listeners shouted in unison '
when he reached the climax of his I
sermon, and two negresses had to be I
j held for fear they might injure them- i
i selves or others in their religious ecs
j tasy. Dozens leaped to their feet with
joy, some extending their hands heaven
ward as they supplicated their Maker I
| to forgive the errors of the past.
"Black Billy" is more than six feet |
tall. He wears a Prince Albert and '
white waistcoat with a heavv gold |
chain draped over it. At times when :
he wished to drive a point home he I
jumped from his pulpit into the crowd ;
and exhorted individuals to forsake the j
ways of the wicked and" become chil- i
dren of God.
1 The congregation did not sing the ;
opening hymn. "Oh. They Tell Me of a !
Home In a City Made of Gold," fer- ]
vently enough to suit him.
"Stop! Stop!" be commanded in '
staccato tones.
"Now If you folks don't want to go I
to that place, I know of another place
where you can go—lt's not made of gold I
either, but red hot fire. Now sing up j
like you want to go to heaven." And
they did. Even some of the twenty
white persons present sang.
Awful Kntf of Stnrers
"Escape for thy life." was his text,
taken from the seventeenth verse of the
nineteenth chapter of Genesis. Having
read this, he told them of the destruc
tion of Sodom and Gomorrah in plain
terms so that the simplest among his
hearers could comprehend the awful
fate of those who forsake God and
worship Lucifer.
According to the Post-Dispatch, his
description ran thus:
"Abraham was sitting ill his tent
door on the plains of Mamre, with the
salubrious breeze blowing about him.
, and the foxes getting ready to leave
J their holes and the everlasting stars
: about to come out, when angels appear-
I yd to Abraham, and he gave them meat.
I Then they went away, and the Lord
jtold him he was going to burn up Sodom
and Gomorrah.
j "The Lord said that if there were
fifty righteous persons there he would I
; not. Abraham girded up his loins and I
| started running through the city, but
Ihe couldn't find them. He asked one
| man:
"Say, mister, are you a Christian?"
"Me a Christian? I should say not—
-1 I'm a gambler," that wicked man an
swered.
| "Abraham then went down a side
; street, where he heard ragtime played
i on a piano, and asked a woman if su»
j was righteous. She said:
"'Say. man. what do you think this
is? This is the red hot district.' And
1 he didn't find no righteous there.
1 "Then the Lord said if there were
I forty he wouldn't destroy the city; then
! thirty, then twenty, then t»n. " Abra
j ham was bound to find at least ten !
| righteous, so he ran through the town.
"Some of the folks laughed at that
I good man as he tried to save 'em, just
i as they laugh at ministers to-day; but
the Lord had spoken, and he was trylu*
to save the wicked sinners.
"He ran into a gambling den, just
like they use to ha*-e In St. Louis, and
said:
" 'ls there any righteous here?'
"But they laughed at him. 'Gee, that
fellow's bughouse,' one of 'em said. But
don't you think Abraham was bug
house. He knew what he was doln".
But he couldn't find the righteous, so
he went back to his tent on the plains
of Mamre. where the salubrious
breezes blew.
"He went back to his tent, he went
back to his tent." the minister sang. I
H ARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
j anil his congregation Joined In the!
] chant.
"Then two angels appeared to IjOt as
he sat in the gate of Sodom. Zephyrs
were being' wafted pleasantly about,
and all was peaceable and quiet. Old
Sol had hid himself for the night, and
beauteous Venus had unveiled her face
to the plains of men. And Lot took the
j angels in and he gave them meat. And
the angels told him to pack up and liy
i away, because God was going to burn
Sodom.
"Lot started to get his goods ready,
then lie went out after his sons-in-aw,
but they were trifflln' fellows, just like
the boys you see hanging around St.
I-ouis poolrooms and saloons. He looked
in all the good places first, like the
churches and the banks , but they
weren't there.
"Then he went down to a gambling
den, and there sat his sons-in-law play
ing cards.
" 'Up, get you out of this place, for
I the Lord will destroy this citv,' he told
em.
I "The crowd that was sittin' around
I the card table guffawed, and said to
one of the sons' 'Say, what's the mat
ter with the old guy?'
"And one of 'em answered. 'Aw. don't
pay no attention to him. He's looney,
he Is.' And the other answered: 'Go
on home, ole man, you've got a tech
of the heat."
"And Lot went back home, klnda sor
rowful like, just like we ministers do
when we can't get you sinners to come
to church. So he and his wife packed
up, Just like this, and trotted off. Just
line this."
Here he put a large Bible over his
shoulder, and trotted back and forth
over the platform, while the congrega
tion shouted.
"But loot's wife, she had a woman's
curiosity, nnd she kept a-sayin' she
j wanted to look back, and kept a
tellin' her to keep lier eyes to the front.
Finally she took just one little peep,
and.then the Lord He turned her into a
great pillar of salt—that's Just what
He did, brethren.)
Ilriinstonr nnd Fire
"Then the Lord cut loose the brim-
i stone and fire, and he burnt up those
two wicked cities."
Throwing his coat back and clapping
his hands together, the minister shout
ed in a rumbling b;i?s:
"And where would God find you if He
sent Lot to look for you if He was going
to burn up old St. Louis? Would he
i tlnd you in the saloon? And what would
j He s« e when He locked In your Icebox
—a can of beer? And what would He
tlnd In your piano—'It's a Long Way to
Tlpperary,' or a gospel song of Heaven?
"And what do you do, my brethren,
when the shades of night fall fast?
When Venus peers upon the earth, and
the gentle zephyrs stir, and the moon
beams gleam softly upon old St. Louis
—you sucks a cigaret, and you drinlm
a can of beer, instead of worshippln'
God—now, don't you?" he demanded.
"Now, some of you good brethren go
through the crowd, seek out the sin
ners, before God Almighty burns St.
Louis up, like he did Sodom and Gomor
rah—do you want to be burned up, do
you want to be burned up?"
"No, no no!" came from a hundred
voices, and soon the mourners' bench
was crowded with supplicants.

EXPERTS AGAINST
ISLE OF SAFETY?
Metropolitan Designers Frown
Upon Comfort Sta
tion Plan
The near approach of municipal
budget making lime for 1916 has
aroused a whole lot of conjecture
! throughout the city as to just what
| Harrisburg means to do with the
j $25,000 loan authorized for the con
j struction of an "isle of safety" and
| public comfort station in Market
j Square.
[ The question of properly handling
I the traffic in this district not only in
! the more or less distant future, but in
the actual present, Is a serious one, j
which Is receiving the careful consid- '
I eration of the City Planning Commis
! sion and the Municipal League.
| That the league has even employed
j experts to weigh the advantages and
I disadvantages of constructing an isle j
I of safety and a public comfort station j
jis generally known. Two experts, one i
; from Chicago, another from New j
I York, were engaged. While the re- |
ports on the problem will not likely j
be released until the league meetsi
1 with the Planning Commission next
j Monday, it is understood that the sug- i
! gested plan for providing an isle of j
I safety and comfort station in the
| Squaro was not only disapproved, but
| was even frowned upon by both the
New York and Chicago experts.
Reports of New York traffic officers!
| on conditions in the business section |
I will likely be considered Monday also. j
! Their report, it is understood, will rec- ;
oinmend some method of establishing
la one-way traffic regulation on the
j Square.

Acid Stomachs
Are Dangerous
AIIOI T MXK-TENTHS OF ALL STOM
ACH TROI BLE SAID To 111:
DUB TO ACIDITY*
A I'liyMiliin'N Ailvlee on I'HUKr anil Cure
A New York Physician who has made
a special study of stomach and intes
tinal diseases says that nearly all in
testinal troubles, as well as many dis-
I eases of the vital organs, are directly
traceable to a deranged condition of
I the stomach. This in turn is due about
I nine times out of ten to excessive acid
ity. commonly termed sour stomach or
1 heartburn, which not only irritates and
! inflames the delicate lining of the
I stomach but also may set up gastritis
and in a large majority of cases gas
i trie ulcers are accompanied by hyper
! acidity. It is interesting to note that
I he condemns the use of. patent medi
cines, and practically all medical treat
ment that is designed to act upon the
stomach lining, stating that the best
results ale obtained by the use of a
! simple antacid which acts upon the con
l tents of the stomach and neutralizes
the acidity of the food thus removing
! the source of the trouble. As an ant-
I add he prescribes ordinary bisurated
magnesia. He contends that it is as
foolish to treat the stomach itself as
it would be for a man who stepped on
a tack to rub linament on the foot
without first removing the tack. Re
move the tack and the foot will heal
Itself—neutralize the acid and the
stomach troubles will disappear. Irri
! tatirig medicines and medical treatments
| are useless, so long as the contents of
! tin stomach remains acid; remove the
acidity and there will be no need for
medicine—the inllamed lining of the
i stomach will then heal itself. Sufferers
| from acidity, sour stomach and heart-
I burn should get a small bottle of blsur
ateii magnesia from their druggist, and
' take a teaspoonful in a quarter of a
I glass of hot or cold water after each
meal, repeating in fifteen minutes, if
necessary, this being the dose which
I the doctor lias found most efficacious
in all cases.—Advertisement.
