In Holiday Attire.
Boston is arrayed in her most beautiful
garments. AS the visitors enter the city,
they cannot fail to be delighted at the
beautiful decorations Of the railway sta
tions. In one or two cases these approach
the superb, the national colors being in.
termingled finely with the crimson and
white-the Christian Endeavor colors.
Upon many of the great buildings of the
city, the homes of business thrift and en-.
terprise, are seen outward decorations
which have never been surpassed In elab
crate arrangement, even upon important
political occasions or national holidays
From roof to sidewalk many Of these
buildings are hung with the red and the
white, while notices and inscriptions bio
the visitors welcome.
In the windows of the shops throughout
the city the presence Of the visitors i.
recognized both in decorations as such
and in the arrangement Of goods dis
played for sale. In many cases the decor
ative effect in these windows Is exquisite
In the extreme
But the display is not confined to the
shops where fabrics are sold. Scarcely q
tradesman, whatever may be his wares
has failed to catch the popular spirit
And above and over oil are seen the little
flags of crimson and white, bearing the
thohOEhuih VI obo ShiiSllon IIuucuNOi
society. In the shops of Christian, Jew
and pagan 1t is alike displayed, proving
that, for the time at least, difference OF
creed and religion are lost in common
brotherhood.
Ample Provisions.
The pie market Is booming on account
of the Christian Endeavor convention, and
one baker alone is putting into his oven
fully 1000 pies, daily, In excess Of the usual
demand. Boston lies within the pie belt,
aud Its reputation is TO be maintained at
all hazards.
The supply of beef In Boston Is ample
Tor all demands which may be made dur.
Ing the week. The great dealers say that
they are receiving a larger number than
usual Of special cuts, such as loins and
ribs, In anticipation of the demands Of the
epicures among the Endeavorers.
Investigation shows that there is nc
foundation for the rumor Of milk famine
which has obtained some currency. Al
least from 5000 TO 5000 gallons OF milk be
yond the average daily city supply have
been engaged, tho amount depending
somewhat upon the weather; The con
tractors are Of the omniop that tbciy o.
