In TENT ENDEAVOR.
Commissioner Ross Gave Warm
Welcome to the Delegates.

Commissioner Ross Gave a Warm
Welcome to the Delegates.
The scene presented by the vast Con-
gregation which assembled in Tent EIr
deavor this morning to participate in the
initial services of the convention was as
pleasant from an aesthetic standpoint as
it was inspiring to the speakers.
Despite the wet ground and threatening
skies there were many pretty, bright-col-
ored cashmeres in evidence. When all
these were gathered in the tent the tout
ensemble produce d most interesting ef-
feet. Every face was full of interest and
attention and u composite photograph made
of all OF them would have been a picture
with a strong expression Of happiness
whatever other emotions may have been
lacking.
or course there was plenty Of feminine
beauty, which is ever welcome on all kinds
of occasion. Its attractiveness was height
ened by the fiutter Of mryiads Of fans, be-
hind which the ra dient faces seemed to be
playing hide and seek. :
All the arrangements for handling the big
crowd were perfect and there was not a
hitch in the program. The rain graciously
withstood the temptation to souse the
thousands on their way to the grounds,
but as soon as they were safely under the
tents it came down in torrents.
THE FIRST SONG.
Though $50 was the hour set for the
opening Of services the crowd began to
assemble at 8 O'Clock sharp, and when Mr..
E. o. Excel of Chicago, the musical di-
rector gave out Scatter Sunshine" as the
first song the tent was nearly half full, and
the attendance was largely increased by
late arrivals.
After singing II Will Sing the Wondrous
Story DR.. Tyner delivered prayer, in
which thanks were returned for the safe
assembling, after passing so many dangers
on the way. Then the congregation sang
1.-THE Banner of the Cross" The reading
ofa Scripture lesson from Matthew, 1-12,
followed. Chairman Howard X. Grose,
of Boston, remarked, by way of introduc-
ton, that be knew that Washington would
take good care of the crowd, rain or sun
shine, after which the congregation sang
Anywhere, My savior.''
Then came the Invocation Hymn" writ
ten for the occasion by Col. John Hay, one
raphers. .fg
Mr.. Grose said that it has been stated that
Washington was the best governed place
in the country. and that he supposed every
body would agree with the statement, al
ways excepting the particular communities
from which they may chance to come.
The fifteenth annual convention was then
declared by Chairman Grose to be opened.
He introduced Commissioner John W. Ross.
who delivered an eloquent address of well
come. The program was all right, he said,
with the exception that the weather seemed
a bit overdue-for the reason, apparently.
that General Humidity thought all the En-
deavorers are Raptists.
ADDRESS OF WELCOME.
Mr.. Ross address lasted something over
half an hour, and was heard with close at
tention. 1t was full OF impressive periods

Electric Suspension Railroad.

Among the technical novelties intro
duced in Geup2ny the new electric
suspension railroad between Dedpsic
and Halle deserves mention. THE sys-
tenn is a recent invention of Eugene
Dangen of Cologne, and its distinctive
feature is the suspension Of the cars.
THE only place where this new system
HAS so far been tested for a short time
is on a spedkd Time between Cologne
and Deutz, a suburb, but there lit has
been found eminenIEy successful. BY
Fhe new system she running time be-
tween Leipsic and Halle, % miles, is
to be reduced from 30 minutes, as at
present, to ID or 20 minutes. The Ber-
yin municipal authorities are very anx,
ious to see this new line in operation,
as in the event of an the promises made
being CARRIED out, it is The mtention to
buld several electric suspension roads
for imtumural traffic ait Berlin.
