SUNDAY SCHOOL CoEvENT1oN.-The
Tenth Annual Convention Of the ONO
State Sabbath School Union, at Steu-
benville, Ohio, adjourned Thursday
night at ten O'Clock, after two days har-
uonious and pleasant work. The num-
Der of delegates was quite large-ail
earnest and jealous in the great cause.
The Convention was presided over by
Korin Prenti.s, of Cleveland whose
ability added greatly to the successful
working out of the many important
GU. stions which came up ier considera-
ton. Prof Howard Doane of Cincin-
natl, lad charge of the music, which
formed beautiful feature of the Con-
ventiop, and being under his care, as
matter of course, was well done.
The addresses were all short and to the
point. many of the subjects being linn
tied te speeches of five minutes.
There were delegates from Indiana.
Pehnsylvania, West Virginia and May
land, who took part in the proceedings
each giving a history of the Sabbath
School work in their respective States.
After singing Just Acress the River"
the Rev. Barnitz stepped upon the plat
form, and extending his hand TO the
President, said he represented a
little band of Sabbath School workers
just across the river, who were hard al
labor in this great work that although
the interior of the State was but sparselI
settled, yet the work was going OF and
permeating each and every district
Rev. Barnet represented Pennsylvania,
t. ling them that the years would be
few until the Keystone would be placed
in its proper place by theSabbaih School
influence of his State.
Thursday afternoon was set apart for
the children's meeting, and although
the day was exceedingly warm. the tuin
out of the Sunday School scholars was
very large. Dressed in holiday attire,
carrying flags and banners, they pre-
sented beautiful sight. The first Pres
byterian Church, though quite large,
would hold but half of them, and Kra-
mer Chapel was thrown open for the
rest. A number of the speakers went
there, among whom was that old veter-
an of the Sunday School cause, Chidlaw,
besides Revs Barnitz and Mullenix.
Too much credit cannot be given to the
citizens of Steubenville for their gener-
GUS and bountiful hospitality to the
delegates and strangers. The "latch
stringn was out for rsll there and hum
dreds more.
AcCIDENT.-Mrs. DIR. Henry West
met with an accident last Wednesday.
She was taking her mother out home in
the buggy and, when about mile south
Of town the, horse was frightened and
ran off throwing her out, and breaking
her arm. The mother-Mrs. Douglass
was not injured.
