such crowd in the opera house this
year as that which greeted his clever
company Of players. Every seat was

pleasant satisfaction OF having received
double his moneys worth.

Vermont Avenue Endeavorers Lis
tened tn Many Speeches.
The anniversary was celebrated by the
Society of the Vermont Avenue Christian
Church, which was crowded with mem
bers and visitors. The affair was in the
hands of committee composed Of
Misses Mary Folks Mamie Williams, and
Edna Little. Miss Folks presided and
stated in a brief reminiscent speech the
object of the meeting. Miss Williams read
the Scripture lesson, and Miss Little de-
liyered a short address entitled The secret
of successful work. which dwelt upon
methods to be employed for best results for
Christian labor
1t was an earnest talk. prophetic of
bright future for the society in general and
this one in particular.
The statistical fact developed that this
society began its mission in 1880 with q
membership of 10, which has increased to
III at the present time, 25 of whom became
members during the year past.
Russell Barnes directed the music which
was plentiful, but for the most part con-
gregational, the exception being duet by
Mrs Oscar Seeley and daughter, who
rendered '.sing Me Song OF Heavenly
Land" by perfectly new and very accept
able arrangement. The &C. E. Hymnar'
was used exclusively for the musical in
terspersions, which punctuated other pro-
ceedings.
After various committee reports had
been received and disposed Of the presiding
officer introduced Hon. s. G. Pugh of Ken
tucky, who occupied the platform for ten
minutes and gave sincere appeal for all
to assist in the grand work OF Christian
.zation, which the society had so nobly
begun.
Hon. Thomas w. Phillips OF Pennsylvania,
was snextintroduced and supported the state
ment by strong testimony thatthe movement
furnishes the widest field of religious
labor ever known.

Ell Paso, Texas, January 22.-Jimmy Car
roll, the retired lightweight, went to Las
Cruces today to confer with Maher. He
says If the Irishman will consent to fol
low his instructions during his training
and while in the ring he believes he car
lead Maher to victory.
Carroll says that when he was training
Fitzsimmons for his battle with Dempsey
and Maher before. he learned the Aus
tralian's vulnerable points and as u trainer
and second to Maher he will teach the
Irishman to find them and to knock Out
Fitzsimmons.
Carroll and Fitzsimmons met in a saloon
last night, but did not speak. The indica-
tons are that Carroll will second the
Irishman.
The pugilists in training have all closed
their quarters TO the public. This was
caused by the large crowds that gathered
and crowded around them while training
many of whom would continue to smoke.
Fitzsimmons charges admission to mis-
quarters and Is making something on the
side by the move. A large crowd of people
arrived today from ST. Louis, New Or

remain here for the carnival. The town
