Ife went through however, with his sermon. The night and closing: service was much in the nature of a jollification meeting,, and at its close the evangel ist lu-ln an informal reception in which he mufit have grasped several thousand hands. The last hymn sung was "God Be With You Till We Meet Again." Professor Carroll, who di refted the choir, and Mrs. Sfeidley. who led in Bible class and personal work, expressed their apreciation of the line spirit r.hpwn lie re and de clared they would never forget the cooperation given them. Their words were heartuy applauded by the choir and audience. Mr. McLendon, when it came his turn to speak, also expressed hic-. pleasure at being here and thanked the preachers for their loyal cooper ation, urged the people to back their pastor-; expressed his gratitude to I he choir, the ushers, Manager Tuck fi at Hotel Huff rv and all others and, looking over the big crowd, asked his critics if they "thought an infidel out of hell could hold a large crowd four weeks." He answered his question in the negative and declared "God has culled me to preach. That's why." Rev. W. R. Brawshaw offered the evening prayer and Rev. W. O. Goode pronounced the benediction. Mrs Steidley announced that the cot tage prayer meetings would be held Friday morning at llii o'clock. The woman's Bible class will meet .with Mrs. W. B.

She loved North Carolina, its people and hills, she said, and amid applause invited her friends to call on her m Raleigh. Ben. re McLendon began his sermon, lie shucked ofT his coat and appeared in his shirt sleeves. He then sailed forth into his text, which was taken from Exodus, and repeated Pharoh's answer to Moses in in reganl to doing what the Lord had demanded. "To morrow" was the reply im brief when the. plague of frogs brought desola tion and death. The children of Israel had been in captivity for hundreds of years, ami as they bent at their tasks imposed by the Egyptian masters, they had begun to believe that God hart fcgot His promise But He had not. God never forgets His promises Moses in the name of God commaM ed : Pharoh to release the Israelites from bondage and Pharoh answered "tomorrow." McLendon emphasized the dispo sition of so many people to say "to morrow" when they ought to say "to day" and he scored vigorously in his appeal for accepting Christ imme diately. He declared that that those who hav.e hestated may have kept I.." -nna ' itzn(r tn f0iioW them M . CJiA70f, ua wlntpri a nnTn.

He told of the evil influence over the church of this kind of people nd asserted that if one had made up his mind not to be a Christian, be should run from his friends and stop up his ears. Jesus is worth standing up for and heaven is worth striving for. Mr. McLendon looked out over the large audience and declared that in five years, if he could come back, Krave's and a hundred years from many in the crowd would be in their now, no orm in the audience would be remembered. Time nows on nne a river, carrying its opportunities, and these ahould not be rejected. At the call for penitents probably a hundred came forth. Those who had been converted durng ths meet ing were asked to stand up and sev eral hunxheed rose, and those who had been, reclaimed also rose and they numbered additional persons.

Washing-topi, June 21. Plans for the Republican, presidential camoaitrn were discussed in general and in de tail at an all-day conference today be-1 tween Senator Hnvdin nnd Hhol,.,,! Will H. Hays. The nominee was advised of what had already been done by the national committee in launching the campaign aii expv-essed gratification at the plans. The date for Senator Harding? notification, which will take plae about the middle of July, has not been definitely selected. Another imatter discussed was as sistant officers for the campaign. The special committee of the national committee was authorized to name a vice chairman of the executive com mittee and an assistant. Besides t he national committee, a committee ot 15 members was discussed. Judge .1. 0. Pritchard and former Senator Marion Butler of North Carolina alsc saw the senator. They congratulated him an his nomination and pledged him the support of North Carolina Republicans. Judge Pritchard also urged Sena tor Harding to go to Asheville for u brief vacation in preparing his speech and suggested that if a southerr headquarters is established,- it be at Asheville. SOME RUSSIAN GENERALS. Springfield Republican. Russia's record in the war against the central powers was tragic, and ths heroism of its soldiers was 'matched by the incompetence, ineffi ciency, or outright treachery of its commanders. No other country made such terrible sacrifices, no other soi d'ers were called upon to fight against such hopeless odds, attacking barikri wire entanglements with bare hands, fighting unarmed till a rifle dropped by a slain comrade could be found forced to retreat with victory in sight because some general had blundered oi deliberately plotted defeat. The ri-.ge and humiliation of Russia at these monstrous sacrifices due to the stupidity and corruption of the old regime precipitated the revolution. The czar himself did his best, but he was not a strong man. The cofh-iiiaaider-in-chief, Grand Duke Nicho las, was Jionest and brave, but not a military genius, and hs -reiputation collapsed, with the smash of his itr- mjes at the hight of their Carpathian offensive in the spring of 1915. The one Russian general who won fame hi the war with Germany and Austria was Brusiloff, whose offensive at Ga litia in 1916 was the best campaign which the Russians made and revealed first-rate strategy which gave the al lits on the western front some hints. With the revolution Brusiloff went into retirement, and although rumor was busy with his name iittle that was authentic was heard of him till a month ago, when the capture of Kiev by the Poles led him to ajdvess an earnest appeal to Russians of ar par ties" to support the government against the invader. Soon after that the Moscow wireless was silent for a week, and the rumor spread that he had been made commander-in-chief, that he had declared a military dictatorship, etc. All these reports were found to be untrue, except so so far as hp was giving his services to the government. For the western world Russia ceas ed to exist in a military .sense. when; it made peace with Germany ; the western world; dpes not understand that the revolution has been making, new Russian generals, famous in their own country and destined to a n?'. ta ble place in history, though their fame has not yet gone abroad. The commander-in-chief for more than a year has been Sergei Kameneff, a staff officer in the czar'- army, and like Brusiloff not a bolshevik. His bold and successful strategy against Kolchak ouickly showed ability, though the title "the red Napoleon," bestowed upon him in " newspaper headlines hardly fits. Wonder has often been expressed that so many officers of the old army, and evidently as a rule the ablest, have thrown in their lot with the revolution. The explanation given by Kameneff in a recent inter view is sjiggestive; "For m?, as for manv officers, the government means much. We were accustomed to work under a definke aithority. From the moment the bol sheviki began to give orders they showed they really did know how to go vein." Does not this remark go far to ex plain the military successes of "the bolsheviki? A we.ik fumbling gov ernment1 cannot produce a strong armv. Another point which he makes is that the bolsheviki, unlike the old regime, encourage talent. As in the l1 tench revolution. .promotion is sure for men of promise and energy. Of the new men who have come up the most conspicuous just now is the dashing cavalry leader, Gen Budenby, whose exploits against Denekine. and now against the Poles, are amoncr the most brilliant in mod mi warfare, nor since our civil war haJ cavalry had such a chance, and in his audacity Bndennv recalls Sher idan and, J. E. B. Stuart. STARTS RIOTS IN CHICAGO Negroes Who Are Dispersed Cause Trouble in in Windy City Secret Order Had Various r Objects in View Sailors on Leave Began to Search for Excitement. h By the Associated Presa. Chicago, June 21. Police today were searching for R. D. Jonas, al leged radical agitator, and three ne groes in connection with rioting in Chcago's "black belt" during .which two while men were killed and two negroes injured last nigm.

The killing of the white men, who included Robert L. Rose, a sailor stationed at Great Lakes, aroused hundreds of sailors on leave in Chi cago and caused issuance of an order for the arrest and immediate dispatch to Grt L?Jces of all sailors i'cund in Chicago. Besides the beating administered to three negro preachers by white men, a negro buying a ticket down town was seized by a crowd and se riously beaten.

The. war in eastern Europe goes almost unnoticed,, and fewr people fol low its course on the map, but from a military point of view it is of great interest; it is hoth interesting and important that Russia under the rev olution is developing the military tal ent which it lacked under the old re gime.
