Observation-Disclosures

The great convention OF Christian EnGeav-
orers at Boston is but the forerunner, as it
were, Of that still greater gathering from all
parts of the world, which will assemble
in Washington next year. At the inter
national convention several continents win
be represented and ideas and opinions orig
mating under different circumstances and
conditions exchanged, that cannot fail to
exercise an important influence upon the
future relations OF the people that viii
send the delegates.
or greater Importance, however, than
this comparison of notes, the mutual
benefit of which cannot be too highly
estimated, is the closer affiliation OF
those who there meet for a common en-
nobling purpose. and the reflex of the more
intimate relattous, thus engcndered, upon
the communities represented in the con-
veniiou. In our own country it must knit
together more closely in the boEds OF
national unity the sections from which
come the thousands OF delegates Old
prejudices VIII be wiped out, misconeep-
lions corrected, false opinions eradicatrd;
confideDce wiz take the place of distrust,
respect willreplace disdain, ,affeetionateand
regard will rule where indifference or dis
ike held sway.
If such be the effect OF these gatherings
in our own land, it ca mo well be otherwise
than tha { similar results VIII flow from
-the inieFmnElng OF our people with those
OF other nations. The mission OF the
Endeavorers is one OF love and peace; their
arm and T,rrTrose 20 spread the doctrines OF
Him who said Love thy neighbor thy
self" Animated by that spirit they will
meet and labor together; nd like thepebble
which thrown into the quiet lake. sends
ripping wares to furthcst distances. so
these Endeavorers returning to their homes
VIII carry To their people the spirit and
influence that governed their ldbors
The time when absolute peace Shall
rule the word may be aeons distant, the
millennium but an idle dream but the work
Of the Christian Eudaavorcrs cannot fail
to draw the nations OF the earth into closer
communion, ana make the brotherhood OF
men more than mere form Of speech.

"Best Of Summer Reading"
IErnrn .ho EIl-tnp nna1l \


OF all the summer reading we have yet
consumed, the most charming, fascinating,
and elightful yet awaits us in this morn
.ing's Washington Times-woman edition
"a perfect treat it is, brimful of bright
ness and entertainments. Trilby is cast
in the back ground and the Napoleonc fad
is in the shade. The cuts aud pictures
make the last art magazines seem dreary
We have been surfeited the past year with
the 'woman's edition of the newspapers
of the land, from Georgia to Maine and the
Atlantic to the Pacific, but here comes the
final rcsult-a great deal of froth and
scum has been swept away into the ocean
of oblivion, and now the cream of the
woman's edition" arrives. The city of
Washington boasts of its hundreds: yes
thousands of brilliant cultured ladies, and
this latest triumph attests to the perfect ac-
curacy and honesty of this boast 1t is
alldone fors weet charty's sake. The Home
for IRcurables, it is hoped, will profit much
in a financial way, from>this latest most
successful effort of the kind hearted, tai
ented ladies interested in this beautiful
charity.

LErTER-cARR1ERs AS FIREMEN
What One of Them Expects from the
Present Policy

The letter carriers while making their
midnight rounds are required by a recent
etiict OF Postmaster WiIIett to carry police
whistles, to be blown in case OF distress or
in the event that they should suddenly come
or else find prowliug burglar trying to
across a midnight brawl in active progress,
force an entry The carriers do not object
to carrying the toeteF, but they have serious
objections to the alter-fnidnight collection
OF letters They think it is unnecessary and
declare the small number of letters col
lected in the wee sma' hours is con-
vincing argument in favor OF their belief.
Referring to the carrying OF police whistles
by the gray-rlad hustlers, one of the oldest
carriers on the force said to The Times
last evening:
u suppose we can now consider ourselves
a part 5ilfI parcel of the midnight patrol OF
the Metropolitan police force. After q
wnfle we VIII be made an adjunct OF the
District fire department and be required o
make our rounds with Babcock fire ex-

Th- large number OF Washington people

prrior conditions are appreciated, and it
is doubtful il any other city i'll the country
can show such a large proportion Of cyclists
In contrast 10 The advantages Wa shington

TO give wheelmen opportunity TO avoid

In law the bicycle is recognized as a

cities cyclists are compelled at night to

The Bookman for July.

The Bookman, though the latest OF our
new magazines, has already taken its place
in the van of the new journalism, by which
we mean the Journalism which is breaking
through the provincialities of our periodical
literature and is adjusting its methods
to the needs OF new generation.
In the July number, which is just out,
this test is well sustained in the quality of
the work done in book reviews Though
more space has been given this time to
reviews owing to the fluX of summer booksl
than formerly, this depa rtment is the most
reada BILE and entertaining. All are familiar
with the assumption, sorely pressed on us
that all reviewing is n incarnation of the
dreariest kind of commonplace, but The
PG okInan has proved that in the hands of
{ , be writer's book reviewing can be made
ent -rtdiulng without being flippant, and
informing without being dull.

THE UNION AND THE CABLELINE

THERE'S something especially exasperating
in the efforts OF corporations TO prevent
employees from Joining labor organizations.
Sf American worRingmen arc entitled TO
any privileges, or have a right that should
be respected it is to do as their conscience
dictates after having discharged their du-
ties during the specified number of hours
they are employed to work And when
threatened with trouble if they join a
labor organization, it makes ones blood
boil to think of the slavery to which they
are subjected.
The Washington & Georgetown cable line
presents an aggravated illustration OF this
tyranny. It's employees are forbidden to Join
the Protective Union under penalty OF Of
fetal displeasuTe. and as the employees
know that IL discharged they VIII be black

Arthur Washingto ton, a nine-year old
colored boy, was last night locked up in

the service he refused to let his conf
panions get back into the vehicle, where
upon they informed the police that Arthur
had suddenly and mysteriously fallen
heir to a horse and carriage.
1t is supposed that the team belongs to
a Mr.. Branson, on Twenty-fourth street,
which was stolen earlier in the day. IL
no owner shows up TO identify it, the
boy Will be tried for being a suspicious
person, otherwise the charge will be grand
