Hunt OF the New YORK East Conference at
8 O'Clock. After devotional exercises,
Bishop Harris took the chair. Presiding
Elder Wilson of the Salisbury district
then presented missionary reports from
Asbury, S120; Delmsr, $50. "a; Gumboro,
$43, Stockton, $45; WestOver, IS; Snow
Hill, $12O.
A request that the Rev. W. f. Talbot
OF Westover, Md, be placed on the super.
numerary list was made.
The bishop introduced the Rev. DR..
Hunt, secretary of the American Bible
Society, who made an interesting address.
He stated that the annual receipts of the
society were $500, 200, and more will be
required for disbursement this year.
The Bibles of the society are published in
Germany, both in the English and foreign
tongues He referred to some Of the
chief missionaries Of the society, one es-
pecislly, ordained by Bishop Harris, now
in South America, who has penetrated
from the Atlantic along the Amaz On to
Bolivia, crossing the Andes, preaching
the word along the way--a true itinerant.
Turning to the Lsvant, there ia a min.
lister now on the summit OF Mt. Lebanon
who only last year was bandit. The
very oipie he usee was part VI tno pooty
he had taken from an English traveller in
Palestine-s grand instance OF the power
of religion.
The bishop then announced a message
from the lay conference, in session in the
lecture room of the church. The message
stated that the conference had completed
its business and WAS desirous of ex.
changing fraternal greeting with the
clerical conference.
Upon motion committee was appointed
to escort the lay members to fraternal
greeting, and introduce them to the con-
ference. H. f. Pickels, president Of the
lay conference, was invited by the bishop
to the pulpit platform. Simultaneously
the conference joined in the welcoming
| ode, Together let US swestly live."

voice in starting tones followed "I'm
full of red.hot religion this morning"
The enthusiasm continued in its Intensity
aud testimony aud singing continued
simultaneously. There was by this time
an immense auli;poe. The gallery WAS
thronsed and the auditorium vast sea
of heads. On the pulpit and along the
sislss there was not elbow room.
The Rev. 7. L, Martindale led the
regular morning services by prayer. After
reading a selection from the Psalms LIE
gave place 10 Bishop Harris.
The bishop gave for his text Isaiah /,
63, "Who is this that c0meth from Eiom,
with dyed garments from Bozrah this that
ia glorious in his sppsrel, &c."
The spirit of prophecy rested in very
eminent degree upon Isaiah. He wrote a
wonderful book perhaps the most wonder
full book in the Bible. It's prophecies
seem historic. On no subject did he
write with greater clearness than on
the subject OF the Messiah. The vision
With respect to Jesus his presciencs was
the largest perhaps OF all the prophets.
lssiah's is, perhaps, the most exact
decription Of Jesus We have in the Bible (;
we have 1t on divine authority in John.
There is quotation supporting the doc
trine he had put forward in regard to
Christ, saying "These things said Rssiss
when he saw the Lord and spoke of
Him." When Jesus was born In
Bethlehem of Judea, Matthew
quotes this prophecy of Isaiah
"Behold virgin shall, &o."-which
being interpreted is "God with u.s."
Isaiah had also very clear view Of the
humiliation OF Christ, of his incarnation
and OF his subsequent glory and triumph.
Christ's form was more marred than that
Of any man. "Kings shall shut their
eyes at him." have heard 1t put for
ward by those who ire less acquainted
with the historic Christ that Isaiah must
have been with him in the garden, at
Pilates house, at the cross, that he must
have gone with him to Calvary and

itors hit him certainly too fairly, but McAuley.
he who has been playing such wonderfully ina
games, was seemingly in the worst possible
form. He had four costly bad balls, and
failed to do effective base throw
ings and the fielding on the part
of the home team bad that it sent a
chill down the spinal column of every friend to
the club who happened to be In the audience.
Those who had wagered stakes upon them were
swearing mad, but that is one Of the deceptive
peculiarities of base ball playing and those who
will bet must take their medicine and should do
SO without grumbing The first part Of the
gme was SO one sided that it was absolutely
uninteresting The sixth inning started off a
little better. Casey opened with a home run,
popping the ball clean over the
right field fence, Fisher went out on long fly,
McAuley famed, and Isaacson struck clean hit.
He stole second and came home on Murray's two
base hit. Then Reid sent what appeared to be
fine hit, but it was handsomely felded and he was
retired at first. No more runs were made. Fol-
lowing is the score:

A MILE IN 2:O1a.

PAGES the Most Remarkable
Mile on Record;
Especial Telegram to the Globe.

Especial Telegram 10 Lne GloDe.
CHICAGO, July 10.-All previous records Of
travelling to harness were smashed to-day al
the driving park. Westmont, the PAGER, son
of Almont, the trotting sire, whose death
was recently announced, was driven full
mile with running mate in the phe-
nominal time of 2:01%. The event
was entirely unexpected. Fully 5000
persons were gathered at the track, expecting
two exhibitions of speed by Jay Eye See, the
noted trotter, and Johnston, the 2:10 PAGER.
The former did not appear. Johnston
paced an exercise mile in 2:131S, as unoffi-
cially timed, and the three regular events of
the days programme were uninteresting walk
oveas. Catchfy won in the 2:19 class; Belle
Echo in the 1924 class, and Billy s. in the
2:17 pacing race.
The vast audience naturally manifested
disappointment, and the managers were
anxious to appease them. Mr.. B. j. john
son, owner of Westmont, consen ted to let
the speedy PAGER show mile to wagon with
running mate. Westmont was accordingly
hitched up with Firebrand six-year-old
running horse, and upon the word being
bly, one hundred timers were held on the
novel exhibition, and as the quarter was
reeled off at 2:01 gait the
crowd on the grand stand began to realize
that grand performance was being made.
Westmont never skipped while going to the
half-mile post, which was reached in two
minute gait, the second quarter being made
in 0Q3/ eapOnda Around the tJ1rn hia cnnad
showed no diminuition, and passing the
three-quarter pole in the time given above,
1:90, the perfect-moving PAGER came to tho
distance record at a rate Of speed which ware
ranted the belief that the mile would bf
covered in less than two minutes Unforb
unately the running mate by an uns
steady movement broke the pacer's even
gait and he knuckled first at the grand stand.
Mr.. Campbell, his driver, was Enabled to,
bring him down, but as the team drova
under the wire in 2i01& and the remarkable
performance was announced by Secretary
Hall, q perfect avalanche of cheers greeted
Westmont and his driver. But for the break
mentioned the time would certainly have
been not more than two minutes, The track
has come into grand shape since the recent
rains and tomorrow Jey.Eye See will troti
against time.
Immediately after Westmont's perform
ance to-day he was sold to James M. Hill,
the theatrical manager Of this city, for s20,-
900. Pittsburg offers $4,000 for an exhis.
bition heat by Westmont at the races in that
city next week.

English Liberal Meeting.

LONDON, July 1o.-At meeting of Liberals at
the foreign Office to-day, Gladstone said In view
of the action of the lords on the franchise, thu
cabinet has decided to close parliament as soon
as possible and call new session very early to
again pass the bill and submit it to the lords.
Parliament, he said, would reassemble in Octo-
Der. He thought the lords would not agree to
reject the bill. He promised when parliament
met next year the whole energies of the govern
ment would be devoted to the passage OF the
complete measure for redistribution of parlia-
mentary seats. Gaschen counseled the govern
ment would use moderation in dealing with the
crisis. John Bright announced his intention to
join the reform bill agitation. He hoped the
powers of the lords would be curtaNed

SALTWATER, Mimi, July 1O.-The Sagnaws
may well say: We came, we saw, we walloped
them. That is what they did. They could have
waxed them far worse, but the Saginaws got
tired of base running, and had as much fun as
they wanted. The first cause of the defeat was
McChes pitching, which was of that kind that
almost any one could hit, as the three home runs
of the visitors show. Besides these were thir-
teen base hits, aud two or three baggers. The
next cause was that Peters was not on the
field, and the boys went at it as
they liked, playing on his own hook and no as
sistance to each other. Another cause was the
very worst kind of errors. The umpire appeared
to be an independent one, but he made some very
obvious mistakes. The last and great reason
was that the Stillwaters are no match for the
Saginaws. They were defeated by is to O, and
but for the charity of the visitors the defeat would
have been greater. Following is the score:

Of the hits were two baggers, but were made af-
ter two men were out. The Miwaukees failed
miserably, and the large audience present was
disguised with the exhibition. Lott, who has
played one game trial with the Milwaukees as
pitcher, was released, and played with the
Terre Hautes to-day. He felded well, but failed
to distinguish himself at the stick. The umpir-
