their meeting commemorative OF the

Crusaders, but now the Woman's Christ

name of Crusaders has been abandoned,
the praying has not. And judging from
the number in attendance on last Sun

has not abated; neither did the exer-
cises Of the meeting impress those pres.
ent that the zeal of the members had at
all abated. The meeting was held in

Church. On the wall which the audi.

numbers 1S73-1SSs. The meeting was
presided over by Mrs. Gov. Hart, with
Mrs. Judge Thompson on the platform.
Both ladies were in their happiest mood
and strongest faith, and their remarks
were received with the closest attention.
An able and pointed paper was read by
Mrs. d. s. Ferguson, on the rum traffic.
The paper was written in verse, and the
demand of the traffic, with its terrible
results, we're startingly portrayed. The
effect of the paper was greatly enhanced
by the fine reading of Mrs. Ferguson.
Mrs. J. w. Bridwell read a paper pre-
pared with special view to the active
workers. Necks were craned when a
modest looking young lady arose in her
place, rendering the greeting of thirty
thousand young women Of this country
to the first society ever organized in the
