TO SEE THE SIGHTS.
End of the Endcnvor Conventions
MnnN ENcnraionn Plnnneh.

Many Excursions Planned.
San Francisco, July 13.-With the
meeting Monday in the Mechanics pa.
vilion the most successful Christian En-
deavor convention everheld was brought
to close. The programme for the day
and evening was an interesting one.
Besides the early morning prayer
meetings the Christian Endeavor mis-
sionary force spoke at the morning
service OF the Mechanics pavilion, and
the evangelistic force was at Wood
wards pavilion. In the afternoon the
Junior Endeavorers rallied at the Me-
chanics' pavilion, and practical school
of Christian Endeavor methods was
held at Woodwards. At both pavil-
ions special conservation exercises
marked the close of all proceedings.
The attendance at the morning and
afternoon meetings was large, and at
night those who managed to obtain en-
trance to either of the main meeting
places were fortunate, for only $4,000
could be accommodated and 10000 more
sought admission. Estimates made by
leading business men agree that the
people brought here by this great gath
ering will leave not less than 81, 600, 900
in our city, All the leaders of the move
ment are pleased with the success of
their efforts and with the outlook for
the future of the society.
To-day the visiting delegates. or
great majority of them, will attend
II public reception to which they have
been specially invited by committee
representing the citizens of Oakland.
1t is expected at least 10000 will cross
the bay and enjoy the hospitality of
the OaRlanders.
With the end of the convention, the
thousands of visitors, delegates and
others will take advantage of the
opportunity and the cheap rates
to visit the many places of inter-
est throughout the state. Arrange
ments have been made for excursions
to Monterey, Hamilton, Yosemite, San
ia Clara mountains. Stanford univer-
sity, and other interesting places, even
taking in the southern country as part
of their journey.
