MR. A. MACE, EVANGELIST
HIS MISSION OPENED. A mission war, opened in the Concert Chamber of tho Town Ha.ll Inst o.i'«u'ag by Mr. Alfred. Maco, an English, evangelist. Mr. Mace comes hero under tiio auspices of tho' peoplo known tfi tho Brethren, and he has lately conducted a successful mission in Auckland. Air. Jlace is a son of the once- famous pugilist .lorn Ma.ee. and he liar, inherited his father's lithe frame and vigorous temperamenl. His address last evening was remarkable more for his method of presenting it than for anything now or strange about the matter of it. For, like other revivalists, and especially like revivalists belonging to tho Brethren, he baa nothing but tho old, old story to tell. But ho is a man of ripe years and experience, and ho makes his points with vigour and clearness His gestures nro not such as tho pulpit orator of len uses, but they avo .not at all extravagant, or in any other way exceptionable, and ho does use Ihem, along with hi.; other apt methods of illustration, lo give his mes-" sage with simplicity and freshness. The. hall was quite tilled for his mooting last evening. Other meetings will bo addressed by Mr. Maco on Tuesday and Thursday of this week.
