III The temperance meeting on Monday even
ing in the Rev. MI. Tustin's church was real
jam. Long before The hour Of opening every
I seat was crowded. And ly the time the exer-


cises commenced every vacant place where a


man could stand was filed up.a The pulpit


was filed with ministers Of four different de-


nominations. We have the promise Of a re-
Y port Of Mr.. Hunts mastery effort. The au-
dience remained without the least sign of i'm
patience until near ten. P. M. Verify we be-
{ gin to suspect that liquor selling will come
under The bands i


Mr.. Hunt left on Tuesday in the cars for
: his home in Wyoming Valley. Penn. Wonder
if the liquor sellers up that way will be as sor-
ry for his coming as ours are glad for his going2


We understand that efforts are being made to
4 get Mr.. Hunt to spend a part Of the winter
! with US, We cordially wish that they may
succeed With the divine blessing his abode


among US would result in great good. Mr.
\ Hunts preachings on other subjects than that


Of temperance has proved very acceptable to
the citizensfof Washington. You hear him


preaching TO children, and you think that he


was made for them. Listen to him among the
colored people, and you see he is the man for


them. And when he is before an audience


composed Of the Public Departments, and men
Of lha, standing. you cannot help concluding
| he is the man, for them. May God long pre-
serve and bless him.
