Surprised by n Check.

The Young Mems Christian Association
had delightful surprise yesterday after
noon. when one OF its old friends, who is too
modest to have his name made known. pre-
sented Secretary Pugh with a check for
$1.OOO. to be applied to paying the current
expenses OF the association.
Secretary Pugh says 1t was a timely gift,
as the contributions to the association have
been very materially affected by the imam
cial stringency.
The work of the association has been very
successful during this fiscal year, beginning
October l. The educational classes and
those of the gymnasium have been more
largely attended. the religious work has
been more successful than at any time in
the past, indicated by sixty-nine young men
having professed conversion in these three
months. The finances have been, and are
away behind, and needed improvements are
not being made. The association is in
hopes that the Endorsement just given will
arouse others to assist one OF the most
worthy institutions Of the city and that the
secretary may have many more pleasant
surprises.
