Yesterdaythere was some air stirring,
but it was very hot air. Even the
breeze was superheated. The man with
boiled shirt on was an object Of pity,
and the highest costume was the most
comfortable.
There was a great rush to the park
and the country, where by comparison
the air seemed toleyable. Cooling bev-
erages were in demand, and the whole
community suffered.
About SIX o'clock last evening q
spanking wind sprang up and the
streets were filed with dust for awhile.
About a shower began, and from that
time till 10 o'clock there was the rarest
and most magnificent display Of cleo
tricity seen here in recent years. Light
ming flashed almost constantly in every
quarter Of the heavens. The rain was
fora partof the time buta gentle shower,
but at times It fell with such force as to
cause the impression that. hail was
mingled with the drops.
The storm seemed severest to the
east, but about 10 o'clock there was
some terrific thunder and vivid light
ming right in the city. y
Tho air grew rapidly cooler after 8
o'clock, and the storm gave it bracing
effect that was very revivitying after the
eneryating heat OF the day. Taken all

CHRISTIAN BNDEAvoR SOCIETY.

An Interesting Meeting Last Evening at
tho second ProsbyterIan ohurph
The Christian Endeavor Association
held an interesting meeting last .sVen-'
ing at the Second Presbyterian church,
with fair-sized congregation. Ar
rangements had been made for four
speakers to be present, but only two
participated. Mr.. John R. Truxell de-
iiyered an entertaining talk on the as-
ISOLATION, which was followed By some
interesting remarks by Rev. @. NJ. Al
ford on the international Christian En-
deayor convention, held in the Madison
Square Garden during the past month.
He stated that very few people in that
city realized the size Of the convention
until II was in their midst The rall,
road, hotel and newspaper men all
seemed TO have no idea Of the greatness
ofthe convention, and ridiculed It until
it had asserted its.Vast strength, and
newspapers which first stated the at
tendance at 10000 delegates soon ran
their estimates up to $1,000, and every
where in the two cities the badge OF the
association was seen on all sides, and
everyone awakened TO the fact OF the
magnitude OF this great convention,
He then gave an eloquent description
of the scenes in the convention and the
great speakers Of national fame who
were present, and the harmony Of all
the delegates present where no ecclest-
astical lines we're drawn and all were
brethren, Christian Endeayorism being
the synonym Of union. He also spoke
OF the patriotism and the love Of coun-
try evinced by the delegates during the
convention.
At the conclusion Of Mr.. Affords adj
dress Miss DR.. Alice Williams an:
nounced that the state convention OF
the Christian Endeavor Association
would be held next Tuesday in Parkers-
burg, opening at z p. m. that evening,
and that all who could possibly go
should be present, as an effort would
be made to have the next state conven-
ton in this city In 1893, when they ex-
pected to have fully 1000 delegates
present. Delegates will leave on the
noon train on the Ohio River road, the
fare being $3.50.
The meeting was closed by teryent
prayer by Rev. a. E. Hopkins. Among
those present besides the speaker were
Rev. DR.. w. H. Cooke and Rev. John l.
Roemer, OF Thomas Station, Pa.

CARRIED BY A BIG MAJoR1rY.

During the discussion delegate from
Garfield Assembly nounced that his
union would give q picnic on the 9th Of
August at tho Fair grounds, and that
the net proceeds would be forwarded to
the Homestead strikers. 1t was also
announced that a ball would be given
on the fifth Of August by Crescent
Lodge, A. A. of ]. and S. W., at Turner
Hall, in aid of the strikers. The secre-
tary was instructed to notify all the
unions Of the action of the assembly,
and to request them to raise as much
money as they could TO send on to
Homestead.
A proposition was made that a Wheel.
ing lawyer be hired TO go 10 Pittsburgh
to help defend the strikers accused Of
murder, but consideration was post
poned until communication is had with
the leaders in Homestead. One dele
gate said he had heard that the Car
negie interests had retained the best
lawyers in Allegheny county, and it
was thus impossible for the strikers to
engage first class legal talent
The report OF the general committee
on Labor day was read and approved.
The committee reported that dele
gate had offered TO give the assembly
half OF the proceeds if he we're allowed
TO run wheel OF fortune on the fair
grounds the day OF the picnic, but it
had refused to grant him or any one
else the privilege. When the report
came up for adoption some one moved
to amend and to permit the running OF
a wheel, The amendment was defeated
aud the report adopted as read.
A delegate reported, on information
he considered authoritative, that the
Ohio Valley China Company, of North
Wheeling, had already engaged and
was in the act Of engaging more con-
tract labor, imported from abroad. He
said he understood that thirty men had
been brought over from Europe under
contract, contrary to law. The matter
was referred to the West Virginia legis-
lative committee, with instructions to
employ an attorney, II the committee
saw At, to look up the evidence.and
take legal proceedings, If necessary.
