The Quarterly Convention at Union
Square Baptist Church.
The seventeenth quarterly convention of
the Golden Gate Union of Young Peoples
Societies of Christian Endeavor was held at
Union-square Baptist Church last night, no
less than twenty-four congregations being
represented. The meeting was an enthusi-
aStic one, eyincing determination to &C
complish the good work in hand on the part
of the 500 young people present. After de-
votional exercises, consisting of prayer and
singing, led BY j. j. Morris, an address of
welcome was delivered by Rev. G.. n.
Ballentine, which was followed by music
from the choir.
+. g. Wood, Chairman of the Executive
Committee, rendered an encouraging re-
port, whereupon the Committee on Nomina-
tons proposed candidates for the different
offices for the ensuing term. The election
resulted as follows: E; E; Kelly, President;
II. 5. Blackburn and George W. Fraser,
First and Second Nice-Presidents; f. j.
Brigder, Secretary; Robert r. Hall, Treas
urer.
Rev. J. Q. A. Henry's address on 1.-THE
Duty of Christian Endeayors in Regard to
Sabbath Observance " was attentively
listened to, and much disappointment was
felt that Rev. 5. Y. Leech could not fulfill
his engagement to speak on a kindred sub
ject.
The attention of the convention was
called to the fact that ii has been made a
topic Of discussion in the East as to whether
or not the Columbian Worlds Fair should
be open on Sunday, and feeling was mani
tested that the Christian Endeayors should
enter protest against such a course.
After hearing the Credentill Committees
report and participating IN further exercises
of a devotional nature the convention ad-
Journed to meet again at place to be desig-
mated by the Executive Committee.

Donnelly 10. This was at 1880 o'clock, but
at 6 o'clock last evening they had failed to
respond to the treatment.
G. Coleson and Charles Hufmiler were
not subjected to Indictments owing to the
effects of the last reaction not having disap-

bronchial tuberculosis, is considerably i'm
proved. An examination of his throat
showed that, though it is still red, the
swelling was reduced, relieving the epigloItis
and that liberation was reduced with less
proud flesh and healthier edge. His voice
is stronger and has more volume.
