ODDS AND ENDS.

Many Of the leading government build
ings at Washington are in the Greek
style.
This country has 1000, 900 farms hav-
ing $40, 000, 900 acres and valued at $12,-
OOO, 100000.
1t is said that the largest piece of mica
in the world was recently taken out Of a
North Carolina quarry. 1t measures 81
by 16 inches.
The average time a derelict remains
ahoat is about 30 days, and there are at
all times about 80 of these vessels float
ing about in the Atlantic ocean.
The production Of mercury reaches
about $1,000 TO 10000 frascos per an

AMONG THE GEMS.

The play Of color in the opal is due to
minute assures in the stone.
Black, pink and golden yellow pearls
are more valuable than white.
Every gem known to the lapidary has
been found in the United States.
An uncut diamond looks very much
like a bit Of the best gum arabic
The best pearls are found on the Cey-
lon coast and in the Persian gulf.
The black diamond is much harder
than the transparent white variety.
Pope Julius ii wore in his tiara an
aquamarine Of an exquisite sea green
color inches in each dimension.
The perfectly round pearls are the
most valuable. Next come the pear
shaped, and lastly the egg shaped.
The Greeks stained quartz to 80 close
an imitation Of emerald that it was al
most impossible to detect the fraud.
A ruby of the best quality and more
than three carats is worth more than "a
diamond of the same size and weight.
The diamond is believed to be of recent
geological formation, and a microscopic
examination often discloses in its sub
stance minute plants and vegetable iibers.
For ages there has been a flow Of gems
as Of silver from Europe to India and
none ever return, the people Of India
preferring a gem to any other form of
investment.
When Pizarro sacked Peru, many gems
were obtained, but monstrous emerald
as large as an ostrich egg, called the
"Great Mother" was hidden by the ma
tives and has never been found.
The most beautiful specimen of the
natural emerald in the world is that at
the shrine of Toretto in Italy. 1t was
presented by Don Pierre Darayon, who

crystals, some of which are more than
an inch in diameter.-St. Louis Globe

Rev. B. Fay Mills will both preach and
lead the conservation service in the tent.
The local committee has ordered
map Of Montreal to be printed and sent
to every delegate, so that all may falnil-
iarize themselves with tho plan Of the
city and learn something Of its peculiar
institutions and the enjoyable excursions
in the vicinity, of which Montreal has a
great many. A drive to Lachine, going
by the upper road and returning by the
lower one, is very interesting and will
give one a sight of the rapids Of Sault
1T. Louis and Of the aqueduct that sup.
plies the city with water, near the head
Of which still stands the house Of De la
Sale. Opposite Lachine is the Mohawk
Indian village of Caughnawaga, very
picturesque until you get close to it.
Those who have not come down the st.
Lawrence by steamer can 'shoot the
rapids" by taking one of the small steam
ers at Lachine for Montreal.
The steamboat excursion down the st.
Lawrence to Quebec will amply repay
those who have leisure to take it, and
the lover of grand scenery should sacri-
flee good deal rather than miss the
trip to Tadousac and up the Saguenay.
A delightful excursion may also be made
TO the White mountains and Lake Mem
phremagog, and those for whom it is
convenient may go right on to Portland,
Me-, Boston and New York, or to any
where in the world, for that matter
where railroads or vessels carry passen-
gers.
But person might go much farther
from the city and not see anything finer
than the view from Mount Royal. the
hill behind the city whence Jacques Car
tier looked upon the land and saw that it
was good. This has been appropriated
for public park, and the drive thither
is something not to be missed. Neither
should the little trip to the park on st.
Helen's island he omitted, for it will give
you the chance of inspecting the famous
Montreal quays and the picturesque
Bonsecours market and church, which
are both near the wharf whence the
steamer leaves for the park. You can
not avoid the Place dArmes and the
Church of Notre Dame il you want to,
for they are very much in evidence in the
heart of the city, and you will not even
have to inquire about them, no matter
how strange the town may be to you
BY all means take the elevator up to the
tower roof and get the view, which IL
worth the time and trouble.
Then there is the Seminary of st. Sui
pice, which adjoins Notre Dame in the
rear land into the quaint courtyard o.
which you can look from the tower, the
Hotel Dieu, the Gray Nuns hospital, Nc
Gill university and any number o
churches and religious, educational anC
benevolent institutions of all the creed
in Christendom and all schools Of arch
lecture, which you can spend your spar
time in visiting. The Episcopal Chris
Church cathedral and the Catholic Ca
thedral Of St Peter azs both magnificen
buildings, the latter a reduced but yer.

effective copy of st. Peters at Rome. All
good Endeavorers will of course pay a
visit TO the Young Mems Christian asso-
citation building at the corner of Craig
and Radegonde streets if only to see the
exterior of the pretty building which is
the home of an association whose objects
are so similar to their own, For Christ
and the church"
1t is not necessary to devote much
space to setting forth the history and
purposes of the Christian Endeavor 30
ciety. Everybody knows how it origi-
mated II years ago in the pastors study
of the Williston church, in Portland,
Me-, and how it has gone on flourishing
till now its membership amounts to a
million and half, and there are upward
of % 200 branches established through
out the civilized world, and some in To-
calities not commonly considered TO be
civilized Father Endeavor Clark, as
the founder and president has been caress-
ingly nicRnamed by some Of his follow
ers, planted better than he knew, no
doubt, but nevertheless he must be graft
fed at the increase from his grain of
mustard seed, which has already waxed
into tree of surprising greatness, not
unlike that to which the kingdom of
heaven is compared in the gospel, and in
which there can as yet be discovered no
sign Of decay.
Nor, so long as the society is true TO
its original purposes, is there any need
or likelihood of decay. Founded pri-
marily for the "quickening of the Spir-
it" in the individual and working for the
general good mainly through individual
influences. no valid reason can be given
why its phenomenal growth should not
be more than doubled in the next dec
ade if only the same care be taken to
keep it within the lines originally SET
forth JOHN f. WnLoUGHBY.

HISTORIC MONTREAL.
SCENE OF THIS YEARS CHRISTIAN
ENDEAvOR CONVENTION.

How Delegates VIII BE Received and En-
ctions of the Town--In-
formation For Intending visitors-His-
tory and Purposes of the Society.
The annual convention of the Society
Of Christian Endeavor, which meets this
year at Montreal, Canada, beginning
July 9. is expected to attract upward Of
5000 people to that historic city, a
iQuch greater assemblage than has ever
been gathered there for any purpose.
The preparations already made by the
local committee, however, promise ample
accommodations for this vast number,
and it is quite certain that all will be
cared for at reasonable rates. The city
has been thoroughly canvassed for sleep
ing accommodations, and contracts have
been entered into for the erection of
three large dining tents where l 800 peo-
pie can be fed at once, which will obviate
the necessity for running to distant parts
of the city for meals.

SECRETARY BAER TREASURER SHAW.
The meetings are to be held in the
large government drill hall and on the
Champ de Mars adjoining, where a large
tent will be erected, in which services
similar to and simultaneous with those
in the hall will be conducted The drill
hall will seat 1900 people, and the tent is
to accommodate 5000 more. The regu-
lar sessions VIII begin Thursday morn
ing, July 8. at 10 o'clock, though on the
previous day there will be a meeting of
the trustees at Windsor hall and large
preparatory meetings in the evening in
the different evangelical churches. Many
of the most eminent divines will take
active part in the proceedings, and cele-
brated evangelists, lay orators and tenn
perance workers have been assigned
places on the programme of the four
days proceedings
President Francis L. Clark, ID. d., has
positively announced his intention to be
present. He will be home in ample
time, as he leaves Liverpool on the
Alaska on June II, after the meeting
of the national convention Of Chris
tan Endeavor for England at Bradford,
which he will attend. DIR. Clark had a
rough time Of it in Turkey, where he
undertook to foster the work of the So
ciety, and he will probably have some
thing to say TO the convention about his
experiences. The government got after
him and did everything possible to him
der his work. confscating his books and
other literature and forbidding him to
use the name of the society in his ad-
dresses Many Of the societies there
have been broken mp, and if the Chris
tan Endeavor movement progresses in
Turkey it will be despite the efforts of
the authorities.
President Clark and Secretary Baer
will make their annual reports on Thurs
day night, alternating between the drill
!. hall and the tent so that the audiences
in both places may have the benefit OF
hearing them. There will be no regular
session on either Friday or Saturday aft
ernoon, but UNCONVENTIONAL meetings in
connection with the work will be held in
some of the churches. On Friday even
ing the Hon. w. G. p. Breckenridge oil
Kentucky will address the assemblage in
the drill hall, his topic being THE Age
and Its Possibilities" In the big tent al
the same time Rev. b. W. Arnett, ID. d..
bishop of the African Methodist Episco
pal church. will deliver an address OF
"Christian Stewardship, or Money Ii
the Kingdom" and DR.. Burrell of New
York, one of the prominent trustees o.
the society, will discuss Good Citizen
ship" Saturday morning will be devot
ed to missionary topics, and in the even
ing there will be a roll call in the drill
hall of the states, territories, provinces
and foreign countries represented in tn
convention. The evening session in tn
tent will begin with what is called
1.-THE pastors hour" one of the most in
teresting of the whole convention, a
which some 90 or more eminent minis
tiers will deliver what are called "minut'
guns" or "60-second sermons"

London,s Egg supply.

London is supplied weekly with 49,
000. 900 eggs, which come principally
from France, Italy, Austria and Russia.
The French eggs are esteemed the most
highly, and the Russian ones receive tho
least favor, which is natural in view Of
the fact that they take 81 days in transit.

There will be no session on Sunday
morning, but in the afternoon Thomas

POLITICAL GOSSIP IN GEORGIA.

The latest political gossip growing out
of the gubernatorial situation is the al
legged efforts of the friends of Mr.. Clay
and Mr.. Atkinson to induce one of these
gentlemen to withdraw from the race and
leave the field to the other. This has
already been talked about in some politi-
cal circles, and there is doubtless some
basis for the gossip. The Atlanta cor
respondent of the Savannah News gives
this version of it:
"The first real live political item since
the meeting of the legislature made its
appearance today. | comes from the
best authority that conference between
friends of President Clay and Speaker
Atkinson, both of whom have been gen
orally considered in the light of candi.
dates for the gubernatorial nomination,
was arranged to take place this after
noon. The first intimatiOn of this con-
ference was heard yesterday, and there
is no Jubt that such a move was set
afoat but it cannot be ascertained for a
certainty tonight whether the meeting
took place or not. All who would prob
ably be parties to such conference are
as mum as oysters on the subject. They
do not want to discuss the gubernatorial
prospects at all. A report in circulation
in relation to the conference is thai
Atkinson is determined to make therace
for the governorship 20 finish. Efforts
have been under way to get him to stand
aside for President Clay, as the candida
cy of both would be almost sure defeat
for both in case of another strong candi-
date in the field. The object of the friends
of the two was to get together and, if
possible, to induce one of them to stand
aside, but it now looks as if both will
stay to the finish unless, President Clay
withdraws, for Speaker Atkinson is said
to be somewhat bull headed on the sab
iectn

BALLOT REFORM.

Now that the legislature is in session
the people and press throughout the
state are urging that law correcting
the evils that surround our present sys-
tenn of elections be passed, law that
will be applicable to every election held
in this state national, state, county and
municipal.
In urging the importance of ballot re-
form upon the legislature the Marietta
journal says the provisions should guard
well the ballot and prevent electioneer-
ing at the polls, vote selling, vote buying
and corruption generally.
Every man entitled to vote should bes0e
given that privilege free and untram-
meled and unintimidated. 1t should be
so fixed that men can be elected upon
merit, popularity and principle, and not
through manipulation, corrupted igno-
rance and debauched manhood. We be-
lieve in clean methods, and want to see
those who are not entitled to vote
through noncompliance with the law,
regular political tramps who sell their
votes for beer and whisky, not TO be
allowed to defeat the popular will OF
those honest and in ielligent citizens who
paw their taxes and are interested in
having honest rulers and good govern
ment.
Mr.. Doolan, of Chatham, has intro
duced bill on this subject to apply to
counties with cities of 10000 or more in-
habitants. We hope he will make il
applicable to all elections held in the
state. If ballot reform is good thing
why are not the people of small county
as much entitled to its benefits as large
oneq We are opposed to this dlscrimi-
nation. Make the law applicable to the
entire state and let all Georgians be
placed upon the same footing.

MUROEROUS CRANKS.

The country is very rapidly developing
a new breed of cranks.
The dispatches tell of several who de-
manded money of imaginary debtors,
One wanted $1,000 of Sergeant Pagan,
of the New York police, and threatened
trouble. He was locked up.
Another demanded SIS, 900 of Sergeant
Mangin, most of it in pennies. He is in
in cell waiting to be paid
A third crank in Harlem demanded
$4,000 from Captain Brooks of the pc.
lice. He fourished pistol as he yelled
for his money, but the officers managed
to get him to prison.
This is quite an array of cranks of that
class to develop in New York in one day.
The wonder is that no one was hurt.
Such men are very dangerous to have
around. All assassin is bad enough, but
even an assassin is controlled by some
fear of the law. Buta crank who stands
ready to blow himself up along with his
imaginary debtor is very different sort
of customer. liz
In dealing with such lunaticsit is well
to keep cool Humor their whims in
some sort of fashion until they can be
taken into control, and then they can be
put where they belong.

INTERESTING VIEWS.

OF all the leading papers of the coun-
try the Philadelphia Record is consider
ed as being the nearest in accord with
the views of President Cleveland on the
money question.
In view of the fact that it is staunch
supporter of the financial policy of the
administration, it's views on the silver
question are interesting. 1t says:
"With the final repeal of the silver
purchasing clause of the Sherman law
legislation upon the monetary system Of
the country has not been closed, as a
matter of course. Repeal is merely the
abandonment of policy which could no
longer be maintained. But the advo
Gates of free silver coinage may rest
assured. whatever shall be the financial
legislation of the future, that the Amer
can people will never turn back to this
abandoned system. This is not to say
that the country will not find use here
after for silver as a basis OF paper cur
rency. but it viii be to far less extent
than has been the case under the Sher-
man act. ANY increase in the currency
of the country will be res ed II a
banking system the organization OF
which will demand the early considera-
ton of congress. The less the govern
ment shall have to do with the issue of
currency hereafter the better its volume
will be adapted 70 the requirements of
business, and the less frequent will be
the monetary reacti' MS"

inst now is the time for Dawson peo-
ple TO aid in keeping good thing in
their midst. The Dawson Variety Man
ufacturing Company has added materi'
ally to the prosperity of the town, ana as
it can only be operated hereafter as
Joint stock concern, it would be advisable
for the merchants and others interested
in the general welfare of our city to see
that the stock is Kept here in Dawson.
1t would be IA blow to Dawson, from
which it would never recover, for such
concern as this to either dwindle to
nothing or be removed to another Sec
ton of the state.
A paper is being circulated for sub
scriptlon for the stock, which is limited
to forty thousand dollars, one half
of which has already been subscribed.
No enterprise in Dawson can show
more prosperous record than sthis con-
Germ. 1t brings good class of citizens
to our town, our merchants get the bene-
fl of the wages given, and it is really
feature in the city's prosperity.
1t is expected that the stock will pay
handsome dividend. Let the Dawson
people who can invest, if not more than
one share, come to the front and each
and every one take a little of the stock.
