SUNDAYS GATHERINGS.

Sunday being the last DAY Of the Ep-
worth League conference, notwith-
standing the rain which was falling at
church time in the MOI ming, great
crowds gathered to hear the preachers
of their choice. Walking along the
strs es, it would appear that another
battle had been fought in Chattanooga,
for on the sidewalks might be seen
great blotches of red resembling blood,
caused by the fading of the red bunt-
ing. Every church in Chattanooga,
including the courthouse, was filed to
its utmost capacity. Many persons.
finding it impossible to gain entrance
at one chr ch, would hurrii lily go to
another. Wfi'e the services were go
ing on the rain ceased, but ut the con-
clusion it again poured, causing the
people to remain in the houses Of wOr-
ship. The time was spent in singh Z
and experiece meetings. From y +
pearances the largest crowds gathei
to hear Bishop G. B. Galloway, Of
jackson, Mss; Rev. John Potts, Of
Toronto, and Chaplain G. @. MeCabe,
who preached at the cOurthouLe. Rev.
w. b. Murrah, of jackson, Miss,
preached at the Rossville VI. T.. church
South. Beginning at p. m. platform
meeting were held in all evangelical
churches. Bishop 0. p. Fitzgerald, Of
the M. E. church South, was the prin-
ciple speaker at the First NJ. Z. church
North. Rev. Seth Ward, Of Houston,
Tex, was president of the meeting held
in the st. Elmo M. 4. church South.
Long before the hour set for the
closing exercises, OF night, the tent
was packed with between IL, 600 and
15, 900 people. After singing 'Nearer
Ny God to The" Rev. j. G. Courtice,
of Canada, delivered a discourse on
''Consecration." In the. absence Of

presided at the meeting. In a.highly

duced Rev. L. 4. HOss, ID. D., editor

that many of the entrances alone were
visible, the nest itself being built round
by Others"
Mr.. Gould has given the accompany
ing remarks on the species as noticed
by him in Australia:
81 observed it throughout the dis
trict of the Upper Hunter, as well as in
every part of the interior, breeding in
various localities, wherever suitable
situations presented themselves; some
times their nests are constructed in the
cavities of decayed trees; while not in
frequently clusters of them are at
tached to the perpendicular banks of
rivers, the sides of rocks, ETC., general
ly In the vicinity of water. The long
bottle-shaped nest is composed of mud
or clay, and, like that of our common
martin, is only worked at in the morn
ing and evening, unless the day be wet
and showery. In the constructing of
the nests these birds appear to work in
small companies, six or seven assisting
in the formation of each nest, one re-
naming within and receiving the mud
brought by the others in their mouths;
in shape their nests are nearly round,
hut vary in size from four to six or
seven inches in diameter; the spouts of
some being eight or nine inches In
length. ."-Good Words.

nest, which is of an oblong, globular
form, and composed of moss and other
similar substances, is suspended by
narrow neck, and presents one of the
most singular instances of bird archi.
lecture that has yet come under my
notice."
DIR. E. P. Ramsay has also given an
account of the species in the Wide
Bay districts: 1.-The rock warbler Is a
very pleasing and lively little bird, and
seems to love solitude. l have never
seen it perch on a tree, although have
spent several evenings in watching it.
1t runs with rapidity over the ground,
and over heaps of rubbish left by floods,
where it seems to get good deal of its
food. Sometimes it will remain for q
minute on the point of rock, then, as
if falling over the edge, it will repeat
it's shrill cry, and dash off into some
hole in the cliffs.
THE nest is of an oblong form, very
large for the size of the bird, with an
entrance in the side about two inches
wide. 1t is generally suspended under
some overhanging rock, and is com
posed of fibrous roots interviewer with
spiders webs; the bird evincing pref
erence for those webs which contain
the spiders eggs, and that are of a
greenish color. The moss does not as
sumo the shape of a nest until few
days before it is completed, when a
hole for entrance is made, and the in
side is warmly lined with feathers; but
when finished, it is very ragged struc-
ture, and easily shaken to pieces. The
birds take long time in building their
nests; one found on the 9th of August
was not finished until the 25th of that
month; on the 30th three eggs were
taken from it.
"Of the Australian cliff swallow, the
fairy martin of Gould and other
writer's, DR.. Ramsay records an in
stance in which he found mass of
nests fastened under an overhanging
rock on the banks of the Bell river. Il
counted he says, upward of one hun
dred nests, all built together so closely

Strong Headwind and a Heavy Train
Make 1t the Most Remarkable Trip
on Record-The Best Time

NO prouder man ever stepped out of
locomotive cab than Roadmaster Will

throttle of the iron horse which, under
his guidance, had whisl1ed New York
Central train from New York city to
Buffalo, distance of 4361s miles, in the
unprecedented time of 407 minutes, or
hours and Al minutes.
The record breaking trip Is all the
more remarkable from the fact that it
was made in the face of strong wind
blowing thirty miles an hour, and over
stretch of track that was in spots un.
even and depressed. Further than this
he engine sped along with train
weighing fully half as much more than
.he English train which has held the
record for So many years.
The official time of the run Is: Left
Grand Central station, New York,
5;40:30 a. m; arrived East Buffalo sta

of travelling 64A miles an hour. The
English record was 6324 miles an hour.
Two stops were made In order to
change engines, at Albany and at
Syracuse. The run of s3 miles from
Syracuse to Rochester was made In rs
