At the Melbourne Services Daily, the 'Town Hall, Seating Over 2,000 People, Is ' Totally Filled.

Pittsburg, June 19. The ChapmanAlexander evangelietis party which started in April for a religious revival campaign tour of the world, i holding a remarkable revival in Melbourne, large as Boston, with a population as

great, with wide streets and beautiful buildings. For months the Christians in Australia have been getting ready for this event. When the band of Christian workers under the leadership of Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman arrived, they were not welcomed as evangelists, nor was the proposed work spoken of as an evangelistic campaign. In the language of the Australians, the members were "missioners" and had come on a mission. The welcome was most enthusiastic and cordial. Services are now being held daily in the town hall in Melbourne which seats 2,300 people. Kvery seat is taken at each service, and hnudreds are turned away. For two weeks simultaneous meetings were held In thirty centers by local missioners and the Chapman-Alexander party; preparatory to the big central meeting in the hall. Even in the preparatory services hundreds were converted. The revival is sweeping not only Melbourne, but Australia and the world tour will eventually quicken all Christendom. Alexander Has Choir. Dr. Chapman conducts the central service and Charles Ml Alexander directs the great choir. Services are held at the same hour in other districts of the city by assisting evangelists. What the Chapman-Alexander campaign was to Boston last year the present movement is to Melbourne. Thousands are hearing and accepting the word. Mr. and Mrs. William Asher, the saloon evangelists are conducting services in the saloons of Melbournesomething that until now, has never been' attempted in Australia, Mrs. Asher is the first woman in the history of Australia who has been allowed to speak and sing to the prisoners in the penitentiaries. At her first meeting three hundred men in

what Is known as the first grade of prisoners, heard this consecrated little woman sing "Mother's Prayer." It was the first time for years that some of the men had looked into the face of a woman. The silence which. followed her singing cpofce eloquently and every prisoner was thinking of his home and mother. At the conclusion of this service thirty men accepted Christ. , The next prison meeting Mr. and Mrs. Asher held was for those known as the hardened criminals and degenerates. It seemed Impossible to get attention, at first, but very quickly after the prisoners caught the import of the message, the broke down and wept. Three prison chaplains were present and also the governor of the jail. They all said they had never seen anything UVi it and would have said such results were impossible. Scores asked for prayers. Meetings have been held by the Ashera in the big jam factories and other similar places. Meet in Chinatown. A midnight meeting in Chinatown, Melbourne, conducted by Mrs. Asher was another feature of this campaign. The service lasted until 4 o'clock! In the morning. Mrs. Asher said the girls were more thoroughly degraded than any she had ever seen in America. The woman workers were in and out all night. They would go out every few minutes and return with two or three girls. In this way thirty were ratcbed the ft ret night. The "missioners" -will spend three months in the large cities of Australia and then go to the Phillipines, China, Japan and Korea. Mr. and Mrs. Asher will remain in the Phillipines three weeks longer than the others, and will rejoin the party again at Hong Kong. The evangelists will return to American the first of January. The Chapman-Alexander party which is now in Australia is 11,000 miles away from New York. While it is day with them, it it night with us. They left Vancouver, last March, on the Makura and the great loneliness

of the vast Pacific was unbroken, save by the steamer's call at Honolulu and Suva, enroute for Australia. Not a ship was passed in all those days, except one. A voyage across the Pacific differs from a voyage across the Atlantic almost as much as a journey through the Desert of Sahara differs from a

trolley ride through the throbbing life of Cairo.

When the party arrived at Honolulu a large delegation of Christian workers were at the dock to give the party

a cordial welcome. Automobiles had

been provided, and through a drench

ing rain the party was driven through

out the city which, even under cir

cumstances such as these, was nothing short of beautiful.

At Honolulu. Services were held in the Union

church, both afternoon and evening,

with an interval for luncheon when the party was entertained at Young's hotel, by the Honolulu reception committee. These services were marked by the same intensity of spirit that, has characterized every meeting conducted by Dr. Chapman in recent years. At the evening service Dr. Ford C. Ottman of Stanford, Conn., gave an account of the Boston revival, and this was followed by one of those marvelous addresses of Dr. Chapman which held the audience spellbound to its finish. The ship sailed at midnight. Ministers and people saw them aboard and implored the evangelists to return and conduct extended missions. Some day this may be done. Not an incident outside the ordinary routine of sea' traveling broke the uniformity of the days between Honolulu and Fiji, until April 10 when, at five minutes past eleven in the morning, the ship, the Makura, sailed over the 180th meridan and one whole day was cut out of the calendar. In a single moment they glided from Saturday into the same hour of Sunday morning, and lost a day that must be regained more slowly as they make their progress around the world. That imag-

Hnnrv lln la n wf1rd thine, where a

whole day depending upon which way one is sailing is either lost or gained. To work for Christ on shipboard, a number of religious services were conducted by Dr. Chapman, Mr. Alexander and other members of the party. Also the "missioners" published a little four page newspaper on the ship, "The Makura News," through the enterprise and liberality of Mr. Alexander. More than 500 copies of each issue were printed. It was distributed free of charge among the passengers and crew. Each number contained a familiar talk by Dr. Chapman, one of Mr. Alexander's gospel hymns and the news of the ship. In Fiji Islands. After Honolulu the next port into which the Makura steamed was Suva. The Fiji group numbers something like two hundred, and has been constituted into what is called a Crown Colony. .' . At Suva,, the party was met by a delegation of Christian workers, And

escorted through the intense leal of

a tropical night to the Weeleyan

church, where a great throng ol na

tive Fijian Christians had gathered to greet them.

While the natives had been holding

their usual evening service, a rocket signal had blazed out in the night.
