papers, and all the UNCONVENTIONAL boards
will be asked to furnish their missionary
publications for that purpose The space
In Machinery hall to be devoted to the spe-
cial state headquarters will be portioned
off among the various state unions, and
each will be asked to decorate and fit up
its own space In some characteristic and
individual fashion. Undoubtedly this In
novation will add greatly to the attractive
ness Of the state headquarters, since IL thu
plan is well realized 1t will be possible for
any delegate to spend an entire day In Ma
chinery hall with profit and pleasure.
In addition to these state headquarters
in the hall, each state will have some one
of the Boston churches for q rendezvous,
and as soon as the delegates arrive In Bos-
ton they will register at these churches
and be billeted without delay. AS far as
possible, the delegates from each state will
be located in the immediate vicinity Of
their church headquarters, and no assign
ments of individuals will be made In ad-
vance of their reaching Boston. Some Of
the state delegations win be sent into the
beautiful suburbs Of the city. This has
been decided upon, because 1t win be inn
possible to comfortably locate all In attend
ance within the city limits, but no doubt
those located outside will consider them
selves very fortunate, since tho suburbs Of
Boston are among the most desirable sur
roundings Of any city In America.
The observances Of the occasion will be-
gin on Wednesday evening with meetings
at score or moro Of the city churches.
The next morning, and every morning
during the sessions Of the convention,
there will be sunrise prayer meetings, at
the same churches at half past o'clock.

chanics' hall are DR.. p. s. Henson Of Chi
cago, who will also preside at the Saturday
meeting, beginning at $3.50 a. M, for the
purpose of inculcating patriotic senti-
ments. This meeting and two others for
the same purpose, to be held at the same
time in the two tents, will together form
one Of the most important features Of the
entire gathering Hon. Elijah Morse, one
of the representatives In congress from
Massachusetts,, will be among the promi-
| nent speakers at the Mechanics hall meet
ing and he will be followed by Bishop
Walters OF the A. M. e. Zion church,
