HUNDREDS LINE
SAWDUST TRAIL
Two Hundred StrentrEight Hit the
Trail in Response to Sadden In
vitation to Come Fordwtrd.
DRAMATIC SCENE AT THE TAB
"Billy" Sunday opened his famous
sawdust trail at 9:15 Wednesday, at
the conclusion of tbe regular service,
ahlch was attended largely by the
working girls and women of the city.
Two hundred and seventy-eight
men and women signed the printed
cards, while as many more shook the
evangelist's hands during the traiV
hittlng period of tbe evening.
Miss Bertha Kraft or Keosho, Mo.,
working In the home of James Mc
Kenna, 41 5 North Twentieth street,
waa the first Omaha woman to hit
the trail, while T. Lewis DaUy of
I7S5 Seward street, coal wagon
I river, waa the first man.
Trail Ori Saea1r.
The event rame with much sudden
ness, although many were on the qui
vlve. After his discourse on the sub
ject of backsliding, Mr. Sunday asked
those who wanted to be remembered
In bis prayers to bold up their hands.
Nearly everybody held up their hands
and then the evangelist 'offered a
abort prayer.
This Is a magnificent gathering of
womanhood." was an observation mad
by "Billy" Sunday. Thn hs asked those
who wanted salvation to com forward
and shaks hts hand. That was the cue.
The ushers and secretaries of the trad
Immediately fell Into line to open the
trail and keep things moving1.
"Juet as I Am" was the selection sung
by the choir, followed by other sons.
O. A. Ooss and Frank E. dark took their
posts Immediately In front of Mr. Bon
der and as the trall-hltlers came forward
they expedited matters by raising; th
outstretched hands and passing the pen
itents on to th ushers who pJared them
In th front rows of seats. Th evan
gelist's atrenuostty has not been excelled
during bis Omaha campaign. He braoed
on leg against th pulpit and reached
out both hand, grasping first on by bis
right hand then another by his left hand,
exhorting th b ok ward on to more
forward and urging the ushers and sec
retaries to keep th trail a-gomg. Then
he fell prone on th platform and found
that a better way to reach th hands of
those who moved forward. In th mean
while "Ma" Sunday was working among
seme who. showed particular signs of re
) tic. 6h placed her arms around
two women who war crying and talked
to others.
Sceae t'anaaally Teaee.
In th rear of th tabernacle many
stood up on th seats to get a view of
th Intense seen being;, enacted at th
front. Th choir continued singing softly
and Mr. Bunday waa well nigh exhausted
when th last of th Un had been
reached. Over WO shook his bands In
about flftean minutes.
After th trail-hitter had bean seated
In the front rows and things bad quieted
down the sec ret arias passed th cards
and whan they had been filled they were
collected and turned In te O, O. Eagerly,
who announced that 17 bad signed thee
declaration, which read I
"I new aooept Jesus Christ as my per
sonal Savior." with spaces for name, ad
dress, church prefereno and pastori els
a same reading, "If roonsoraUon put X
In bar."
Over la Half aa Hoar.
After th trail-hitting- Incident, others
preased forward to shak hands with
"Billy" Bunday as b started to leave
for hts hotel. He started out alone, but
"Ma" Sunday soon caught aright of him
and pushed her way to his side. A
private detective opened a way to. th
weet aid of th tebernacl for Mr, Sun
day and his wife.
Th whole proceeding took leas than
half an hour. Mr. Sunday concluded th
trail featur of th evening by praying
for the working girl and women of th
various activities and industries.
Aa the audience was leaving, Mr. B.
C. Eagerly, head of the tra.l serrvtar as,
ceiled his aiJea together and nave thm
Instructions for future service, it is ex
pected that th'.s part of th service will
run smoother beginning this evening-.
There was some difficulty last evening
keeping things moving while "th spirit '
was moving thnso ho had an Impulao
to corns forward.
George Sunday stated that the Bum
ber, who signed cards was exoeptluneliy
gratifying for the first evening of tb
trail hitting. He said Omaha bad dun
very well as a first-nighter.
-Bitlr'a" rreaal latere.
To each of tbe card signers was dis
tributed a circular bearing a picture Of
. Mr. Bunday and with this foreword:
"Dear friend: You hav by this act
of coming forward publicly acknowledged
your faith in Jesus Christ as your per
sonal savior. No on could poaalbly be
more rejoiced that you hav don this,
or be more anxloua for you to succeed
and get the tuoet Joy out of tbe Chris
tian life, than I. Therefore, I ask you
to read carefully this little tract. ' Cor

"W. A. SUNDAY."
In the tract than point are m-
rtaslsfd: Study the Bible, pray much
win someone for Chrtet, shun evil com
panions. Join some church, gtv to the
support of th Lord's work, do not te
cum ciacoiuaged.
Tbe secretaries of the tril occupied
e t lu a reeerved section at the fr nt
and to the left of the plat form, ao th' y
might be readily accessible at the ap
pointed time. Stuns were rather uncer
tain at to their work at first, last even
ing being their flret erpartene oa th
trail. Several times did Mr. Sunday hav
to coach them, while he graspad hands
r'sht and left.
