A Charming Entertainment by the
Athletic Club.
The crowded appearance of the GYM
naslIm hall of the Sacramento Athletic
Club last night warrants the assumption
that the club was extremely liberal in
distributing it's invitations and that none
OF them were declined.
1t was the clubs Ladies' night" and
the ladies were there in full force. Every
seat in the large hall was occupied, and
the stairways leading to the small land
ing over the entrance were also crowded
with spectators. Many ladies could not
obtain seats, but were content to stand
throughout the athletic portion of the en-
tertalnment.
The performance was opened by selec-
ton by Neale's Orchestra, and then the
shapely young athletes displayed their
agility, which won very hearty applause
from the vast audience. The ladies
seemed to take considerable interest in
the boxing bouts. which, while spirited,
were devoid OF anything like roughness

SOCIETY OF CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR.
1t Begins Its Eighth Annual Conven-
ton Here.
Nearly Three Thousand People Pres
ent at the Session Last
Evening.

The eighth annual convention Of the
Young Peoples Society of Christian En-
deavor opened at the State Exposition
building at 3 o. clock yesterday afternoon.
Trains had been arriving all day loaded
with delegates from various parts OF the
State. At 1:30 P. NJ the special train OF
five cars bearing delegates from Oakland,
San Francisco San Jose and other places
arrived.
The San Joseans' car was decorated
handsomely with flowers without ana
within, and presented a very handsome
appearance. The sixty-tive delegates
bore as their badge sunf1ower ana their
banner was a big sundower.
The Oaklanders were distinguished by
their blue caps with gold band around
them.
Scarcely had the train moved up into
the yard than the Colfax train came In
bearing number of delegates from the
mountains.
AT the Exposition building 5000 seats
had been arranged within the canvas
pavilion in the center, which looked
much larger before the crowd nled IN ana
took their seats than 1t did after they were
various delegations took the places as
signed to them.
Conspicuous in the front row on the
right-hand side of the platform were
twelve non-commissloned officers ana
seamen of the United States ship Thetls
in their natty uniforms.
DIR. l.. Z. Kelly, the President OF the
California Christian Endeavor Union,
presided during the conservation serv-
sion. A large numb Der of members con-
stituted the choir. under the charge OF j :.
w. Gibson of Sacramento. Miss May
Oatman organist, and rendered the music
during the service.
After prayer and Scripture reading by
DR.. Kelly a short season of self-consecra-
ton followed, accompanied by sentence
prayers and short speeches or professions
of faith. Every few minutes someone in
the assembly would strike up some we'll
known hymn and a thousand voices
would join in, while the chorus sweIIed
and filled the building. Every word
spoken and the expression of every lace
showed the steadfast spirit which actu-
ated the assembly and aagured well for
the work to be accomplished during the
session and afEerward by these earnest
young people who had come together
10 further the work of their Master.

DIR. Kelly said that the words of hearty
welcome to which they had listened
might almost be deemed superfiuouS in
view of the preparations made by the
Reception Committee for their comfort
and pleasure. He thought faith had in
duced the committee 10 provide all these
seats and extend these walls He was
glad TO know that something was ex-
pected OF the society.
1t might not be out of place to give the
citizens an idea of what the society was.
MIR. Weinstocl1 had stated their numbers
as he understood them, and had only
missed them by about q million. rhera
being about 2,250,000 members. How
ever. they do not claim everything for the
Christian Endeayor, but there are some
things for which IL emphaticaIlv stands
and what it has accomplished. For MANY
wears the different denominations had
each gone their own way, Indifferent to
the salvation of others unless they were
saved in their own way. He was glad the
Christian Endeavor Society had brought
them together, and made them put out of
sight the things they had been qarrelling
over.
In California there are large mum ber
of boys and girls in the junior work of
the society, and would make better Chris
tiaus than the older ones, as they would
nave ten wears of practice in the work,
instead of four. The society had not been
satisfied with taking well-dressed people
thatco TO the churches. and trying to
convert them, but had remem oered the
nrecept given them and had visited men
in prison, as their souls were as
yaluable as those OF the best-dressed
peonie lie believed that this was such
work as Christ would have them do.
There was branch OF its work that peo-
pie knew very little about-the Floating
| Society work. Through 1t hundreds OF
seamen who sail on the vessels whlcn
come to this coast have been converted.
1t also does some things outside OF what

Mayor Strong of New York, has been

of patronage, some $3,000,000 in salary
value, etc. The New York Press ex-
poses the bunco game that Grace is to be
the successor of Croker as Tammany
Boss. This is denied, but the Press
says: 'None the le> $, and with our COM

statement that William r. Grace has re-
ceiyed formal and authorized PROPOSE
tiOn from Tammany Hall to become its
leader; that this proposition was made
upon an understanding that it should be
in due course accepted; that it contem-

it includes an arrangement that Grace'S
candidate for governor, whether himself
or another, shall be the candidate of
