revival during the winter, and these
young people were still in the warm en-
thusiasm
OF tho soul in its earliest love.
The pastor listened to their expert
ences, and suddenly great sadness fell
upon him. From all the experiences of
past revivals he could not but feel that
the love Of many would wax cold; that
few would fall away might be consid-
cred certain, as well as that many who
remained Christians would be chilled
by church Journalism or fail to act in
sympathy with older members. There
was some talk of the tendencies to doubt
and dissent now prevailing, and sug-
gestion that possibly young converts
were asked to believe much at the time
when they should rather be asked to do
much.
The suggestion was spark that fell
among materials ready to kindle, and at
once little class or club was organized
on plan which might be set forth in
these words, 'Do at once what thy hand
findeth to do and doctrine will take care
Of itself" Thus was born the Young
Peoples Society of Christian Endeavor,
which now includes some % 900 socie-
ties and 100000 members. Its name is
its platform, Earnestly endeavor to
lead a true Christian life, and after that
creeds and denominations.
This little society grew till it's mem
bership reached sixty, and in August of
that year The Congregationalist, of Bos-
ton, published q sketch of it under the
heading, "How One Church Cares for
Its Young People" This article and
others which followed it were widely
read, and such interest was excited that
several other local clubs of the same ma
ture We're organized. These soon affil-
lated, and on July 2, 1889, the first con-
vention was held in the Williston
church, six societies, with membership
of about 400, being represented. In
June, 1888, there was another Conven-
tion there, when fifty societies were rep
resented, with a membership of 2,Sz0.
Itsoon spread far beyond its parent
state, and in 1884, at Lowell, Mass, 151
societies were represented; but it was at
Ocean Park, Me-, in 1885, that the size
of the gathering first excited much at
tention, there being 253 societies repre-
sented. Conventions were held at Sara
toga in 1885 and 1887, at Chicago in 1888,
at Philadelphia in 1889 and at st. Louis
in 1890, and still New York city did not
seem to have heard of the organization.
In 1901 her Christian people arranged
Los Angeles herald., 1892-10-23
thusiasm among the Endeavorers.

Thirty evangelical denominations were
represented. The Presbyterians lead in
the organization with 1906 societies.
Next are the Congregationalists with
4,495 societies, the Baptists with 2,736,
the Methodists with 1885 (if the Meth
odist Protestants with 422 be included
that denomination ranks third) and the
Disciples of Christ with 1857. In all
Canada there are 1877 societies, il Aus
tralia 232, in England 300, in Turkey 20,
Mexico 10, the West Indies 10, Samoa 8,
China 9, Japan G, and so on through all
the lands in lessening numbers, the total
in SO called missionary lands and minor
islands running up to over 300. Secre-
tary Baer concluded his summary with
this touch Of humor:
Christian E..deayor is INSTRUMENTATION
interulSaD, interstate, international, inter-
racial, and, ii it be true that there are other
worlds than this, we shall fnd that it is inter-
planetary, simply because it is based upon
Gods universal law of progress through self
denying endeavor and ministration.
Full details of tie conventions pro-
ceedings have been published and widely
read. Suffice it, then, to say that Father
Endeavor Clark, as they call the late
president, and in a sense the founder Of
the organization, presided at the opening
and was presented with gavel made
from the granite Of the cornerstone and
black walnut of the pulpit of the parent
church Williston, at Portland, Me. Mr..
William Shaw, treasurer of the united
organization, took the chair for the
time, and Rev. Dwight M. Pratt, Rev.
Clark's successor at Williston, made tie
presentation speech. Among the emf

This year there was equal amusement

led in the number of societies with

1899, Illinois with 1,477, Ohio with

dents and many more showed that no
class of people can enjoy innocent fun
better than Christians, and of all Chris

Slave Trade FIourishing.

MARsEILLEs, Sept. 29.-According to
advices from Alden, the slave trade con-
tinues on large scale. Owing to the
demand for slaves and the high prices
offered for them slave caravans are ar
irving on the east coast daily.
The caravans find no difficulty
in travelling through Vitu. The
slaves are embarked at points in the
vicinity of Zeilah, Massowah, Ojibon-
til and Suakim. In exchange for the
slaves the traders accept nothing but
modern firearms and ammunition. The
mortality among the slaves while en-
route to the coast from the interior is
70 per cent. Raids on still larger
scale are expected during the winter
in the region of the Congo state and
German ard English East Africa.

LONDON, Sept. 29.-The livery of the
city of London met to-day in the Guild
hall to elect successor to Lord Mayor
Evans. The Guild hall was crowded,
and unusual interest was taken in the
proceedings, owing to the fact that
strenuous opposition had developed
against Stuart Knill, alderman for the
Bridge ward, who stood next
in rotation for the lord mayorality, be-
cause of his religious faith, he being
a Roman Catholic. Six candidates
were proposed to the livery. When
Knill's name was mentioned it was re-
ceived with loud cheering. There was
a scene in the chambers when Conn
cilor Moore protested against the selec-
ton of Mr.. Knill because he was a
Catholic. The protest was received
with mingled Kisses and cheering. It
had little, if any, effect upon the liv-
erymen, and Mr.. Knill was elected.

two large boilers in the Carbon iron
work, at Thirty second and Smallman

scattering sections of the boilers, bricks,
etc, throughout the mill, in which sew
eral hundred men are employed during

filled with scalding steam and natural
gas, which escaped from the broken
pipes and then exploded, causing
nearly as much damage to building
and machinery as did the collapse of
the boilers The damage to the works
will aggregate several thousand dol
lars. No one was killed, and SO far as
is now known no person was seriously
injured. The escape from terrible
