EVENING SESSION.

The society reconvened at 7:30 o'clock
last evening, and the Revs. Baugh and
Stevenson opened the exercises with
prayer.
Miss Julia Fraser, Synodical Secretary
of Young Peoples Work, delivered
brief address on Home Missions" Miss
Fraser said those with her in the work
are pioneers in denomination which has
for its objects the uplifting of down
trodden humanity. The aims and OBJ
jeCts of the mission schools are to pre-
sent to the youths knowledge of the
Savior. The work is carried on in every
place inhabitated by man in the
United States. In Utah, Colorado
and other adjoining States and
Territories a teacher is welcome where a
preacher is not allowed to enter. The
majority of the exceptional population
hold the balance of power in politics, and
it is with difficulty that they are reached.
After Alaska was ceded to the United
States in 1867 whatever Christians were
there left for their original homes. After
ward a Christianized Indian went there
from British America to preach the gos-
pei. After the Indian died the work was
taken up by a Mrs. McFarlane. Miss
Fraser described the various mission
schools in Alaska and the good they
have done.
Mrs. Eiefer then rendered a vocal solo
in pleasing manner.
Mrs. |. NJ. COndit, Corresponding Sec
retary Of the Occidental Board, San Fran
cisco, delivered an interesting address on
"tOroign Missions" She exemplified
the good work of the society by intro
ducing the Chinese girls and Assyrian
children referred to in the afternoon re-
port Of the meeting. The Chinese girls
sang and played on the piano, and the
Assyrians delivered recitations, all in

ones room, the ease with which II may
be carried up or down stairs or hoisted
In dumb-waiters or elevators. 1t can
be readily doubled up for carrying on
the shoulder up and down bad roads.
Such bicycle can be readily placed In
a carriage or other vehicle for trans
portation. The inventor claims further
that In its folded shape the bicycle may
be securely locked, but seems to forget
that In its portable shape 1t presents
an extraordinary inducement to the in
tending thief.
The folding bicycle Is one of the
things that, now that 1t has been in
vented, will cause people to wonder
why 1t had not been thought Of before.
Dwehers In fats, however, where there
are tenants given to storing their
wheels In the lower hallway, will be
inclined to send their personal thanks
to the genius who has shown how the
most unwieldy thing ever invented
that is while in a state of repose-may
be made less obtrusive and less dan
gerous. There Is no reason why It
shouldn't be hung up on a peg out Of
everybody's reach.

Infarmary for Cats.

Some twenty-five years ago gentle
man Of Columbus, Ohio, died, leaving
behind him drawings and plans of a
cat infirmary, to be erected by his exec
utors. The infirmary was to have rat
holes for sport, areas for amatory con-
verse and grounds for exercise, pro.
vided with high walls, with gently slop-
ing roofs. The last clause in his will
read: 81 have all my life been taught
to believe thatevery thing in and about
man was intended to be useful, and
that 1t was mans duty, as lord Of ami
mails, to protect all the lesser species.
even as God protects and watches over
him. For these two combined reasons
first that my body, even after death,
may continue to be made instrumental,
as far as possible, In furnishing n sub
stitute for the protection Of bodies Of
my dear friends, the cats, ] do hereby
devise and bequeath the intestines of
my body to be made up into fiddle
strings, the proceeds to be devoted to
the purchase Of an accordion, which
shall be played in the auditorium of
the cat infirmary by one Of the regular
nurses, to be selected for that purpose
exclusively-the playing to be kept up
forever and forever, without cessation
day or night, In order that the cats may
have the privilege Of always hearing
and enjoying the instrument which Is
the nearest approach to their natural
voices" There was grim grimalkin
humor in this.

tracts to the extent of a million dollars
for the completion of the new ware
house for the Government appraisers In
New York. On March A, 100000 was
appropriated for immediate use. The
original appropriation on Sept ID, 1888,
was for $S5O,OOO for the site, which
occupies the entire block bounded by
Washington, Greenwich, Christopher
and Barrow streets, and $650,000 for
a ten-story pressed brick and granite
building. This latter sum was found
to be inadequate, and has been ex-
pended In the construction Of the first
two stories. The contract for the en-
tire work was given to Michael Giblin,
Of New York city, In November, 1892.
The building, when completed, will be
about 40 feet In height, and will have
a frontage of 214.3 feet on Washington

1t is believed to have been used for

and I have been told that formerly,
when wine was scarce, the custom was
to send the bottle abroad to be replen-
ished whenever a fresh supply was
needed.-Notes and Queries.

Mr.. Sage Cuts on . Nephew.


There Is q rumor In Wall street,
writes the New York correspondent Of
the Cincinnati Enquirer, that Russell
Sage has changed his will. Mr.. Sage
has 500 900. 900. according to the income
tax returns. to distribute to his heirs.
It Is understood that he made his will
several years ago. He included In the
requests his young relative Charles
Chaplin. Mr.. Chaplin is a newspaper
writer. 1t occurred to him a few days
after Lunatic Norcross had failed in
his purpose to blow up Uncle Russell
that 1t would be good thing to call
on the old gentleman and write him
up.
At that time Mr.. Sage was supposed
to be knocked all to pieces. Mr.. Cha
pin found his relative in very good
health and was so pleased, that he went
down to his Office and wrote a two-col-
umn article describing just how Mr..
Sage looked.
This was well enough at, the time.
Mr.. Sage never dreamed then that he
would be put on the gridiron Of Mr..
Choate's cross-examinatiop, The arti-
Gle which Mr.. Chaplin wrote was Of
great advantage to Mr.. Chcate in prod
ding the memory of Mr.. Sage. When
the jury gave Laidlaw a verdict for
$4,000 Mr.. Sage concluded that Cha
pins story had something to do with
1t. 1t is said he called his counsel,
Judge Dillon. and had Chapin's name
stricken from the will.

A Novel Scheme.

OF all the fin de steele schemes to
draw trade, the one recently gotten up
by a shoe dealer in a town In the inte-
rior Of Pennsylvania is probably the
most novel. He offers bicycle to the
boy through whom the largest guam
tity of shoes is sold In two months.
Naturally, nearly every boy In town
has interested himself in the matter,
and, as result. he is making life mis-
cradle for "his sisters, cousins and his
aunts," besides his father, mother. Sun
day school teacher, etc. Each boy par
ticipating In the contest is given pack
Of cards on which his name is written.
These cards the boy distributes to his
friends, requesting them to buy their
shoes during the two months at So
and-sos, and present at the store one
of the cards on which his (the boys
name is inscribed. The storekeeper
places the amount Of purchase upon
the card and files it to the boys credit.

One That May Be Easily Flushed and
Cleaned When Desired.
The sewer inlet shown in the accom-
panying illustration is a German inven-
tlon that has recently been introduced.
The design is to exclude street dirt
from the sewer and to afford a ready
means Of flushing the inlet To effect
this partition is placed at the mouth
Of the inlet and the base of the inlet
proper Is connected with the street
water main. A siphon trap is provided
to cut of sewer gas.
When 1t Is desired to clean the inlet,
the hinged cover Is opened. and the de-
posits In the chamber are removed with
scoop. Then the valve is opened, and
water rises In the inlet In strong
stream, which the cover throws back,
SO that the entire space Is filed, up to
the level of the gutter.
A further flushing takes place when
the valve Is closed, and all the sur
rounding parts Of the sewer are washed

stumbling block as is the letter "h" to
some English folk. "Good morning,
