A Gospel Car

A private car labeled "Good Níews" is side-tracked in Ann Ar3or. Its possessors are Evangelists Tfho preach temperance and moral purity, in the open air, afternoon ind evening from the steps of the :ourt house. Just why the missioniries think they ought to "give it" to the court house officials in a particular manner we do not guess ex;ept on the theory that policicians ire of all men most wicked. The car, it is said, runs under the luspices of the Michigan Central road, whose officials believing in temperance and moral rectitude among its employees as a matter of business, give it and its occupants free transit over the company's lines. E, T. Goff, the leader, unites the dual qualities of manager and speaker and discharges both at his audiences with the readiness of one whose ammunition costs him nothing. Charlton Edholm, of Chicago, Supt. of Press of the World's W. C. T. IL, and author of the book "The Traffic in Girls, and Florence Critt.ngton Missions," speaks on personal purity, and especially warns tather and mother that their girls are in danger. Several ladies are members of the company, Mrs. Goff, Mrs. Quinn and Maud Goff being fair songsters. The company numbers as one of its attractions John Philip Quinn, the converted gambler who shows the gambling instruments by which "suckers" are never allowed to win unless by permission to still further ïeece them. His appeals to gamblers and drinking men to quit their meanness for the sake of mother, wife and child, are very earnest.
