NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS
General William Booth Tells the People of
the Salvation Army's Work ,
TWENTY-MNE YEARS OF BUSY LIFE
Growth of HU Idea of Reaching the Worldly
Men and Women Illustrated Methods
of the Army In Spreading
the Word.
General William Booth was erected by an
Immense audience at the Broadway Methodist
church yesterday afternoon. People began
to enter the church an hour before the time
advertised for the general to make his ap
pearance , and the big room was two-thirds
full half an hour before the meeting com
menced. It was just aoout 2:30 : o'clock when
a fpeclal motor 'train from Omaha pulled up
In front of the church and the honored guen
alighted , accompanied by his staff , Colonel
Han ley , aide-de-camp , Staff Captain Malan
and Captain Taylor , all three of England ,
Brigadier French of St. Louis and Major
Halpln of Philadelphia. The train also
bore the Salvation Army band from Omaha
and quite a delegation of army men anl
women of both cities.
General Booth was conducted to an nnte-
room adjoining the platform from which he
was to speak , and an Informal reception en
sued , during which the pastors of the city
took advantage of the opportunity of shaking
him by the hand. When the general ap
peared upon the p'atform the vast audience
arose and gave him the Chautatinua salute ,
filling the air vlth a shower of fluttering
white handkerchiefs. Dr. Stephen Phelps
of the First Presbyterian church extended
a welcome to him In a few brief words , and
the old hymn , "All llnll the Powers of Jesus'
Name , " was sung with the regulation army
vim , the staid and dignified audience some
what forgetting Itself In the enthusiasm of
the red-vested warriors on the platform.
Major Halpln's concertina did yeoman's serv
ice In keeping the audience on pitch.
General Booth spoke of the uniformly kind
treatment he had received since coming to
this country and the words of cncouragcmcn'
that had been given him. Two purposes had
been realized by his visit , the first1 to re
move the prejudice that was once felt against
the army by those who were not faml'iai
with Its alms , and the second to encourage
.the members In their work. Fifty years ago
he was under conviction of sin , and when
the light broke the Idea of a Salvation army
was born In his mind. There were two
worlds , the Christian world and the worldly
world , and they knew as little as possible of
cne another. His object In starting the
Salvation army was to bring religion to the
worldly world In a form that would Ju at
tractive , for without making it attractive It
would never get a footho'd.
WENT AFTER THE WORKING PEOPLE ,
"Tho army was not born full grown , wltli
It1 * general , lieutenants , majors , captains
and all that , as many suppose , but It com
menced without any fixed plan , and grew
gradually Into the form It now has. Th (
question was , how to get the attention of the
people. I knew that It was not In a mai
to look at heaven , and not want to go there
to look at hell and want to make it his home
to look at Christ on tiie cross and not wani
him for a Savlo/r. They would laugh a
ordinary churcli announcements , for thej
felt It a vastly more Important thing to knov
how they were going to get money to pa :
their landlord or their grocer the next tlmi
he made his round. To get hoU of till :
class I made It a rule to employ whnteve ;
means would attract them , whether it wa' '
according to usage or not , provided it wai
not contrary to the prlnclp'es ' lalJ dbivn ii
the bible. Oh , we ve made people's ha !
stand on end more than occe. But we'vi
made the devil's stand on end , too , that la
If he's got any hair.
"In the twenty-nine years that have clapsei
' since the army was first organized our flag
have fluttered In forty-nine different couu
tries. We have a newspaper that circulate
amorg 50,000,000 people In the course of ;
lear. We have local officers who- spend thel
leisure time in making street parades , carry
Ing on the work of the army , and minister
Ing to souls. W bellevo In saving the bed
as well as the soul. When we get a man'
soul In the right condition we put his bed
In the same condition , and wo have It under
stood that we have a right to his faintly , hi
pockctbook and everything else ; that If he I
pious Sunday hs must be pious all week ,
t At this point Brother Halpln , whos
1 "amens" had been constantly growing 1
f frequency and vehemence , shouted out In
t tone that attracted the gercrai's attentloi
Turning to him the latter said , In a gooi
nnlured sort of way :
"Keep still there : don't you see you've gi
company ? "
Brother Halpln blushed a deep crlmsoi
and tic | general , to put him at his case , sail
"That's all right ; fire n volley , boys. "
In ths volley of "amens" that foilowe
Brother Halpln's voice rang out loudest i
nl1 , and the general said "Now you'll fc
better , " and went on with his speech. 1

for what they got. Thera were very fe

truthful and economical snd who suffer fro
poverty for any great length of time. I
closed his remarks by ro'atlng a number

Then StafT Captain Malan was calle.l up
for a song. The captain Is a good-lookli

just enough of a brogue to make him Intc

guitar he sang a song in his native tongi

Details arc row being coitaldpred between
General Passmc Agent Francis , of the Bur
lington and General Passenger Agent Bu
chanan of the Elkhorn looking to an agree
ment between these two big railroad corpora
tions which , If It can be made , means a great
deal for both roads. The agreement con
templates nothing more than the Interchange
of paisenger business on the part of the
Northwestern with the Burlington at Craw
ford , Neb. , where the former crosses the
tracks of the latter road. The passenger
representatives have had this matter under
consideration for some time nnd such pro
gress has been made that the agreement has
been put In writing nnd will b3 submitted
to Mr. Buchanan In Chicago today.
Should a conclusion be reached the de
tails will probab'y be made public before the
end of the week. Heretofore the Northwest
ern has been delivering Its northwest pas
senger business to roads at the Wisconsin
river , receiving for transportation the short
line route between Chicago and Council
BlufTa. By the contemplated arrangement
the Northwestern will be able to Increase
Its haul 470 miles , the dlstancs between the
Missouri river and Crawford , a by no means
small factor In the matter of passenger earn
ings. In the event the agreement Is con
cluded betwen the roads , It wl 1 place 0,000
miles of the Northwestern system at the dis
posal of the Burlington , nnd may be the
means of rearranging the present contract
between the Union Pacific and Northwestern ,
although this docs not seem possible In view
of the present close relations existing be
tween the "Overland" system and Its ally.
It la understood that a line of divisions has
been agreed upon and It Is on'.y the minor
details which now keep these roads still
talking the situation over. Both Mr. Fran
cis and Mr. Buchanan left for Chicago last
night and It I : thought a definite conclusion
will be reached within the next few days.
