The afternoon congre gation at 3:30 was larger than the morning, many people attending from the country, and last evening some 2,500 people gathered at the Big Ban ner warehouse, which has been fitted up to comfortably seat 5,000 people. Services at the First Baptist and Gos pel Tabernacle churches gave way for the revival last evening, and many of those and other churches took advan tage of the opportunity to hear Evan gelst McLendon. "Hell hot, sin black, life short, death certain" the old gospel of repentance and fleeing from the wrath to come may, in a word be said to be Mr. Mc Leiidon's theme. He does not mince words, and in his earnestness at times the burning message flows from his lips like a torrent, the whole man in vigorous action. His first quick dash to the pulpit challenges an interested attention which he easily holds until he abruptly and unexpectedly dismiss es the congregation. enlv yesterday s three services give ground for the prediction that Cyclone" Mack is going to wake up l umberton and the country round ahcut.

SUrted on Church Folks. The preacher started on church folks. Lack of brotherly love and con fidence among professing Christians, he said, stands in the way of a re vival. Professing Christians ought not to sit around unconcerned and let a whole town go to hell. Gcd hates sin as much as he ever did. There are too many loafers in the church. Preachers cant puff and blow and pull everybody into giory by themselves. You may expect a revival when Christians confess their faults. You've got to come elean with God. You can have a revival when Christian people are ready to make the sacrifices nec essary to carry it on. "If you church people don't come up and throw yourselves into this re vival I'll blister your carcases before I'm through," he said. Cnurches are m the same old rut in January finally was chosen. The first meetings will be for the actual framing of the preliminaries of peace with the representatives of :he enemy powers, who will be present. "The names of the French delegates to the peace congress have not as yet been announced, but it is understood they will be three members of the government and possibly a fourth member. The British delegates will be Premier Lloyd-George, Foreign Minister Balfour, Chancellor of the Exchequer Andrew Bonar Law, George Nicoll Barnes, laber members of the war cabinet, and a fifca .relegate not yet selected.
