The President completed the ap-
pointment of Session Committees by

and Rev. George Crum, a Committee
on Nominations.
The Report of Standing Clerk.
The annual Report of the Standing
Clerk was read by that officer. 1t
was a careful recapitulation of the
parish reports of the State and en-
bodied certain recommendations for
the action of the Convention. We
reserve the statistical portion of the

THE CONVENTIONS LAST

list, whose new and beautiful edifice
on the corner of 9th street and Blais-
dell avenue, golden in the summer
sunshine shining through the beauti.
full windows, for the first time received
Convention guests.
The parish, under the energetic lead
of its young pastor, Rev. j. Murray
Atwood, entertained their guests in
an admirable manner. Although the
attendance was larger than usual all
were comfortably provided for and
the "grace of hospitality" was de-
lightfully exercised. The ladies of
the church, assisted by friends, SER
we'd lunch and supper, during the
three days, in the vestry of the church,
and the visitors were thus enabled
to give all attention to the services
without loss of time in going to and
from their homes. The three Con-
ventions which assembled, Sunday
School, State Convention, and Y. P.
G. U.,-each presented programs of
distinguished merit which held the
attention of all closely to the end. In
the following report we note the
prominent points of interest devel-
oped and aim to give resume of the
action taken and an outline of the ad-
dresses spoken from the platform.
Congratulating our Minnesota breth-
rem on the success of their annual
meetings and especially on the frater-
nal spirit manifested throughout, and
the promising outlook for the future
of organized Universalism in the
State, we submit the columns which
follow:

week in this city. at the residence of her
daughter, Mrs. Vaughn. on the West

The remains were taken to Pasadena
where they will be placed beside those
of her honored and lamented husband.
We thus simply announce the departure
of the good woman gone from among us.

print suitable tribute to her beloved
memory.

The Boston Herald, almost invaria-
bly, an opponent of DIR. Miner in re-
form matters, now hastens to say that
he was "a heroic fighter, who struck
with all his might whenever he saw,
or thought he saw, a wrong that
called for righting, and naturally the
path that he trod was at times
pretty rough one. But, though he
excited good deal of hostility by the
fervor of his assaults, his bitterest
opponents admitted that he was
thoroughly conscientious in his work,
and that he was governed in his con-
duct by sincere desire for the moral
advancement of the community"
In 1891 DR.. Miner offered his resig-
nation as pastor of the Second Uni
versalist Society in Boston. He had
then served forty-three years in the
passionate of this famous church, the
church of Hosea Ballou. The resig-
nation was not accepted, but col
league was settled, Rev. S. HI. Robin,
and DIR. Miner remained as senior
pastor. He has thus been the minis
ter of that church forty-seven years.
His term of pastoral service is the
longest in the history of the Univer-
salist denomination. We may also
add that DR.. Miner was the President
of the Executive Committee of the
Trustees of Tufts College, President
of the Trustees of the Bromfeld
School at Harvard, of the Board of
Trustees of Dean Academy at Frank
lin, and of the Trustees and Board OF
Directors of the Universalist Publish
ing House, OF, which he was one
of the founders. For an outline sketch
of his family history and ministerial
life to the year 1887, we refer the
reader to the article on the first page.

ANOTHER NEW CHURCH BUILDING
Greenvil1e, o.


We are informed that the contract has
been let and work begun for new
church building at Greenville. o. The
structure will be of brick with seven
foot stone foundation. Gothic in style.
The location is in the center of the city;
removed one and half squares from the
Courthouse and half way between the
two school buildings, on Fifth street,
half square from Broadway. The lot
was purchased by, and donated to the
society, by Mr.. and Mrs. NV Emerson.
We congratulate the pastor, DR.. Mac.
Lean. and the Greenville, parish on this
new enterprise, and trust that it may be
pushed to an early success.

NOT TOO LATE.

1t is not yet too late for the still UNI
certain ones, who have not fully re-
solved to be numbered among the
hosts at the great gathering of Uni
versalist young people, to decide to
be there. 1t does seem as thoughno
one should miss it. There is no pos
sibility of disappointment for any
who go. Let the sacrifice be what it
may that pays the price of transpor-
tation there and back, the compensa-
ton will be certain and ample. On
the other hand, when the great meet
ings are all over, and the reports of
the magnificent enthusiasm and the
fine achievements have gone out
through press and delegates, the ones
who could have been there, eff they
had known it was going to be so
great" will regret that the sacrifices
were not made which would have
placed them on the floor of the me-
morable convention, "a convention
which is to go down in the history of
our Church as one of the first great
gatherings of our denomination.
Then, too, Unions in sending off
their delegates should give them gen.
erous and hearty instructions to en-
list the home organization in what
ever good, great work the Convention
may determine upon. Remember we
are not coming together for fun, or to
make big sputter for few days
and then subside into a back-lid
sizzle. We are to keep up the fire,
which this Boston '95" is to enkindle
throughout the year, and come up to
the convention of SO with such mag
nifcent showings as shall be worthy
of the great convention which we are
now so expectantly anticipating.
There should, therefore, be no uncer-
tainty on the part of delegates as to
what the home Union will think.
Every delegate should know that his
Union stands back of him in what
ever he pledges for our great cause.
Here is sample resolution, which, in
one phrase or another, should be
passed by every Union just before it
sends its delegates on to Boston:
WHEREAS, we believe that the Boston
'95 Convention is to sound the note for
more unanimous and victorious forward
movement OF our Y. p. G. u, and
WHEREAS, we are, as Union and in
diyidually, in hearty sympathy with such
| an advance movement of our Union
forces; be it therefore,
Resolved, that we do hereby authorize
our delegates to take such action. con-
cation. as shall put us vigorously in line
with such work or plans as shall be de-
cided upon at said Convention.
And now for a final word, the final
word before the long anticipated
gathering. Be there at any reasona-
Bile expense or sacrifice. Come loaded.
That is-come full of earnest enthu-
siasm and confidence in the future of
our Young Peoples work and with
courage to "put your hand to the
pillow" and help to make that future
glorious.
Yours for "Boston '95," and wha.
is beyond it. ELMER j. FELT,
National President.

The service was closed with the sing
ing of "Jesus, Lover of My Soul"
The Occasional Sermon
followed, delivered by Rev. Lyman
D. Boynton, of Rochester. His sub
ject was"The Religion for the Times"
The discourse was able,earnest, broad

spirit. Religion to be truly success
full, according to the preacher, must
embrace three strong features-ra-
tionality, practicability and tolerance.
The sermon ended, the Convention

ADDREss-EDUcATED MINISTRY.


Rev. j. H. Tuttle. D. D., followed
in a brief and informal address on
the topic IAN Educated Ministry"
This was an essential of a growing
and progressive church. The ven
cradle speaker rejoiced in the atten-
ton which was given to the subject
among Universalists and spoke very
Interestingly on the great need of our
church for well equipped pastors and
preachers. A brief discussion follow
ed in which several members of the
Convention participated. AT the
close the Convention adjourned until
the evening service.
AN EVENING SYMPOSIUM.
In the evening at eight o'clock a
large audience assembled to listen to
the speakers at the platform meeting,
President Willis presided and Rev.
T. E. Dotter offered prayer. The
following were the topics discussed.

braced many excellent points, well
stated, for the consideration of the
Convention. We are promised the
manuscript and will select portions
for The UNIvERsALIsT.
Mr.. Shinn was anxious for the Ed
itor of The UNIvERsALIsT to take the
platform in an appeal for Convention
funds. The President also rendered
the opportunity. DIR. Cantwell de-
clined on account of the lateness of
the hour, and Mr. Shinn, all alive with
earnestness, presented once more the
Cent-a-Day plan. He received nearly
one hundred and fifty dollars in sub
scriptions on this basis. One half of
the proceeds will return to the treas
ury Of the Convention.
The Executive Committee were in.
structed by vote to take cognizance
of any business neglected by the
Convention in the closing hour. At
late hour an adjournment was
moved, the Convention to adjourn
sine die at the close of the evening
sermon.
The Convention ended its session
on Tuesday evening with sermon
by Rev. S. w. Sample, of All Souls
Church, Minneapolis. The subject
was, "God is Love-" and the text the
