There was a fair attendance at
the meeting held in the Central
PRESBYTERIAN church last night to dis
cuss the question of the reorganiza-
ton of the ST. Paul Y. M. G. A.
Rev. Addison Moore presided, and
the meeting was opened by the sing
ing of a hymn. Mr.. Moore referred
briefly to the downfall of the old
Y. NJ. c. A. organization, saying that
it was largely due to the fact that
the members were too jealous OF
their religious beliefs, and those
belonging to this or that church
thought theirs was the denomina-
ton above all others. But now he
was glad to see that the light was
beginning to break through. Mr.
Moore then introduced DR.. E. G. Eg-
bert. who made a strong plea for the
revival of the organization. DR.. Eg-
bert said in part:
The problem of the age is the up
lifting of the young men conSregated
in the cities The city takes the coun-
try boy and in a fortnight introduces
him to a life previously unknown to
him. The cities are tangling up their
life with the whole organization of So
ciety Not only are they attracting
to them all elements of society to the
detriment of the country, but they are
building up monopolies of wealth and
social position while Offering the COM
erS the worst
MORAL SENTIMENTS.
young men are the greatest force in
the nation. Some men of strong, per-
sonal character and happy disposition
retain in old age the mental vigor and
enthusiasm of youth, but many young
men of twenty-five might be found to-
night in this city whose youth is gone
forever, wasted in dissipation.
1.-The Lord never came to any human
being except through another Christ
gave Himself for humanity. The Y.
NJ. c. A. will be an utter failure unless
it goes with outstretched hands to ele-
Vate and ChriStianize young men. This
is what it has been doing. Any bust
ness man in the audience would say
that if any one of the ministers pres
ent devoted himself to money-getting,
he ought to be turned out of the minis
try, and / say amen. But is it any
more reprehensible in minister than
in business man? Are they any diff
frrent ON ott er men? Then I ap-
peal to the business men of the city to
aid literally in the way of financial
donations to revive the Y. NJ. c. Al
President McKibben, of the associa-
ton, told of the work that has been
done to pay off the extremely heavy
debt that was incurred by the old
board of directors. He said there is
still $4,000 remaining unpaid, but a
committee is making a house-to-house
canvass for contributions to pay this
off. and as soon as the entire amount is
collected it will be paid, but not cent
before. So those contributing may
rest assured that their mites will not be
used to pay part of the old debt and
let the rest stand.
On motion of T. T. Fauntleroy. it
was voted to indorse the report of the
president and pledge support to the
coming organization. Rev. David
Morgan offered a short prayer, which
was followed by song and benediction
by Rev. DR.. Hill, and then the meeting
adjourned to hold another meeting on
Monday evening, April l.
