Billy Sunday, the famous baseball evangelist, began a revival meeting in Baltimore. Sunday and is preaching jharacteristic sermons to great throngs of people. The Balti more American gives the following account of the opening of the religi ous campaign, which is to continue for eight weeks: In screeching defiance of the devil, hell and all the powers of evil, Billy Sunday threw down the . gauntlet to sin 5 at the very outset '6f his Cam paign' yesterday morning;' Climbing on a chair just back of his table, he roared and hissed at his enemies, daring them to come on, while the 16,000 souls before him in the tabernacle rose and cheered. To an even larger crowd at 'the afternoon services, he reiterated his boast of fearlessness, proclaimed his intention of putting Satan in the hos pital before the fourth of July, hand ing the rum interests the hot end of a poker, and cleaning up generally. Attacking the degradation o high society" before the great throng at the night meeting, he preached the most thrilling, the most interesting and most exciting sermon of the day. With a characteristic bang, Billy Sunday, always one , to start things, has started things in'BaUimore. The greatest evangelistic inpaign this city has ever witnessed at last is un derway. The months of preparation have been well spent, for now that he is here, his great organization is perfected and complete and from now on Sunday will be at the iniqui ties of Baltimore hammer and tongs. If he keeps the pace he set for him self yesterday and those who are close to him say he will surpass his first efforts there unquestionably will be an army of trail-hitters when he calls for converts later in the campaign. So complete a control of the vast throngs that heard him as yesterday he exhibited was a profound marvel to all. At the close of his famous grenadier sermon in the afternoon, he had worked the great crowd up to such a pitch of excitement that as one individual it rose to its feet, singing the Battle Hymn of the Re public waving hats ; and handker chiefs and umbrellas and cheering at the prospect of a conflict with evil in which there was to be no fear, no treachery, only a whole-hearted army fighting for the gospel that Sunday preaches. His Challenge to the Devil. It was no idle or sensational boast, no play for the gallery, that challenge to the prince of evil Billy really believes there is such a creature in the morning. . It was his j proclamation of war in Balti morehis ultimatum to every influ ence and every individual arrayed against the scriptures. Panting, hoarse and quivering with excitement, he seized a chair as one possessed and mounted it. In his eyes there was a fierce light, that beamed out over the rostrum and conveyed its message to all who watched him. "I defy you!" he remarked. "You have' lied about me. Now I am here. Come on! , Come . on, you forces of iniquity in Baltimore t lat have made the church a sin. Come out! I defy the every dirty one A. of you! Come on, you traducers; come on, you triple extract "of in famy; come on, you. assassins of character; come on, you sponsors of harlotry; come on, you detainers of God I and enemies of the chur . h ; come - on, you- bull-necked; beetle browed, : hog-jowled, peanut-brained, weasel-eyed four-flushers! You false-alarms and excess baggage! In the name of God, I challenge and defy you!" -' 1 The man seemed overwhelmed wun a fervor, an influence, that transfigured him. His body ! was bent j forward,- : breath came in quick, short gasps. From his broW the perspiration - ran in thick, swol len streams and his arms beat the air frantically. U "It's mighty easy to lie about a man when, he isn't on the Job," he" s.narled. "I'm 'here now for eight weeks. Come on and I'll deliver; the goods, express prepaid." Then, as if suddenly galvanized, he leaned forward,, :with a: -rigid finger A pointing to some imaginary sinner far out in the; crowd, r.. "Look here!" -he shrilled. "I'm going to preach hell here.. I'm not responsible for the plan of salva Vn ; And !f vou don't want to hear liell preached don't poke your head around' this tabernacle. The same way if you don't like my preaching. A lot of people don't like my preach ing. They know more about preach ing than' I do. . That V why I'm preaching and they're not. i. Mr. Sunday's Epigrams. Some .P??! I!There is no hell.' They won't be there a minute before they are ready to admit they Our churches are organized - to death now. You can hear them squeak. There's not enough oil .in the worilsriafce them run smooth ly. Wlrat "they-ieed is . the Holy Spirit. " I don't - blame t a man for staying out late in a club instead of being home with his wife, if he has to play second fid le to, a bowlgeged bull pup. If you don't fix it-with-God before the undertaker pumps the embalm ing fluid into you you'll never get to heaven. - '- : - - , If you sleep with? dogs, you: must expect to get up" with neasl ' " T A hobo, with God in his heart,, is worth a whole lot uore to his "coun try than a millionaire booze-hoister. Some people " talk through their noses to keep from wearing out their false teeth. - ' "; I don't bother about grammar when I preach. I just grab up chunks of -truth, hurl it out, and if it's sot any jagged edges, let herrip. When" you sneer at revivals you spit into the face of God. ; V The sons of the majority-of our bridge-whist society women are the missing link between the monkey and the man. A lot of fine-dressed society wom en and men only count when the cen sus takes comes around. If a woman on the avenue plays a game of cards in her home, she is worse than any blackleg gambler in the slums. . If a minister believes and teaches evolution, he is a stinking skunk, a hypocrite and a liar. If I were a wife . of some of - ou men, : I'd refuse to clean your old spittoons.; I say let every hog clean his own trough. Your wife has as good a right to line up before a bar and fill up her skin with the hog-gut you do as you have. - i r HAITI NOW UNDER UNITED STATES PROTECTORATE. The senate has unanimously rati fied the treaty with -Haiti under which the United States assumes a protectorate over the turbulent island republic, taking over control of its finances and police, guarantee ing its territorial integrity and un dertaking I to develop its resources.

Cropsey . in the course of his investigation of the liberties; which; f have been accorded Willett and jbsepCassidy.- ' Willett, who is said to .have made morel than $15,000 before, hia" trans fer to the prison , at Great Meadbw, is reporter to have acted as the agent for a New York broker. Wil lett reported the latest market quo tations ja.t intervals during the dav and acceptedthe orders from fellow convicts it is said. It is, understood that the broker . would accept no checks and the business was done only in cash. The cash and the or ders were delivered by Willett-to. the broker's messengers. It is said that there are more than half a dozen small fortuntes in this broker's office awaiting convicts on their release. '"-j Although it was announced that Willett was transferred from Sing Sing because several attacks had been made upon him By f ellowr-con-victs who oppose his rulings as judge of-the court set up by the Mutual Welfare League, it is said that Wil lett's influence was so great that he was able to disregard the orders of Warden Thomas Mott Osborne and that he was able to carry on his stock operations and the negotia tions for the operations of others in Wall street- in-spite of objections from Mrl Osborne. This is reported to have been the reason for his trans fer from Sing Sing.
