He spoke Frevch with sa English secent, but he proved an eloquent was . orator and waxed somewhat popular. In a series of lectures he showed the aim of the army, and did his best to interest us in his work. His meet. ings did not materially differ. from ‘were quiet and orderly. . All this was changed on the arrival of the detachment of the main -} army, Marshal Catherine Booth’ is ‘a lady 20 or 22 years old. She went to work with a will; She ‘nad a ‘large audience at the firat meeting, composed mainly of persons suppoged to be sympathetic . with the army. She gained not only the esteem but the admiration of all her hearere.by the noble and striking ‘manner in which she presented her plans and ‘explained her mission.

The meetings were interrupted by hissings, groans, and cat calls. The hymns were drowned in comical songs and the trumpeters were hooted from the: platform. The-most~demonstrative section of Satan’s army wis} ‘ dees scattered among them, inciting them to violence. The police repressed all attempts to drive the army from the hall. I attended one ef these tqnsltu; ous services, The orators were unable to make themselves heard. The interruptions were simply disgraceful. The press of all shades favored ‘the vindication: of ‘liberty of speech. I doubt whether the agitation would have been quelled were it not for the common sense displayed by.the Marechale. She decided not one should be admitted without a ticket. The tickets were distributed: almost exclusively among . orderly persons. A few of the devil's . adherents, however, managed to secure admission, and tried a guerilld warfare, but they were captured by the police. Since then things bare been comparatively quiet. } The detachment is com of ten persons, including three or four women. Atthe conclusion of these services they hold prayer meetings, to ‘which all’.are invited. Those seeking the benefit of prayer come to the front and kneel down.

It also gave Cross, of Nevada, an opportunity to make the beat speech which has been heard at this session of the Legislature, While he did not take grounds against the farmers, he warmly urged that the mining and agricultural Were connate, and thit every man who assisted in developing any of industries of the State was a friend thereof and a good citizen, His eloquent remarks were most attentively listened to,. members putting aside their papers, suspending writing and turning in their chairs sv as -to face him and catch every word.
