Y. M. C. A. CONVENTION
FIVE HUNDRED DELEGATES WILL AS
sEMeIE AT MOBILE APRIL 2t.

Some Interesting Information Regarding
the Association, Its History, Its Fine
buildings, It's Scope and Its Methods of
work-PIans For the Convention.
Representatives Of more than quarter
of million members of Young Mems
Christian associations i'm America will
meet in Mobile ON April 2l. The occasion
is the thirty second international conven-
tion, and the sessions are to continue for
four days. The delegates will come from
all parts Of tho United States and Canada.
Each local branch is entitled to one repre-
sentative for every 100 members, up to 10,
that being the limit. Besides these gem
tlemen there will be the international
committee, each member of which is a
delegate ex oilicio to the convention.
This will bring somewhere near 500 del
egates to the convention Tho purpose of
the gathering is TO bring together large
number of men who are prominent in the
various branches of Y. NJ. G. A. work
They are all live, energetic men, and will
go TO the convention with valuable ideas
and suggestions.
n most intricate and wide spreading fabric.
In every largo city in this country you
| will find 1t housed in palatial structure.
Chicago has one which cost n round mil
| lion of dollars. New York has several
substantial buildings built without regard
to expense on some Of the costliest land in
the metropolis. Fine structures are to be
| found I'm other cities, for the total wealth
of tho Y. NJ. G. A. i'm buildings alone is
nearly s17, 900, 900.
The interiors of these fine buildings arc
| furnished to match their extcriors. Their
parlors and reception rooms are such guar.
ters as are to DC found only in the homes
of tho wealthy, while in other parts Of the
buildings are gymnasiums, swimming
baths, reading rooms and assembly halls
calculated to make them attractive spots
to young men.
There arc 3l5 Of these fine buildings in
America, and more are being built every
year. Many other organizations of botl
sectarian and lay character have fine build
ings, but none has had the same success:
in this line as the Y NJ. G. A., taking
the number of its active members into
consideration. 1t is the organization which
has done 1t. At tho head of every one o.
the 1868 local branches in this country
there is salaried secretary, whose bust
ness it is to give his whole time to thu
management of that particular association
He must be a man of rare business abilit.

don on new means Of converting heat
energy into mechanical energy and dem
onstrated his theory by battery of his
own invention.
Mr.. Case is a member of the Ameri-
can Institute of Electrical Engineers, and
before that body he has read many inter
esting and important papers. In 1887
he attracted much attention by explain
ing new form of carbon consuming
battery with which he had been expert
menting That he has been working
along the same lines of investigation
ever since is shown by the paper which
he recently read at Columbia college be-
fore the New York Electrical society.
While Mr.. Cases discovery is of no i'm
mediate commercial value, it needs only
to be perfected in a few points to become
one of the most valuable industrial dis
coveries which has been made since the
first steam engine was built.
Mr.. Case is citizen of Auburn, but
spends much of his time in New York
city and Europe. He has recently given
to the city of Auburn public library
building in memory of his father, and
he has also created fund to establish a
scientific library in the building.

MISS FGoEENcE UIGINBoTHAM EQUIPPED FOR
An ENCOUNTER.


/ lost good deal of that. For awhile
we girls used to fence at the gymnasi-
UNI, but there were always so many
spectators there that / determined to
have an armory of my very own. Lots
Of the other girls have done the same
too.
1t is indeed, as found on investiga-
tion, the swell thing to have "A fencing
room in your own home. Partisan ladies
set the fashion several years ago, and
today the society women Of the gay cap
ital are very generally expert in the use
of the fOils. At first American women
looked upon it as something bizarre, but
Marie Tempest did much to popularize
the sport when she appeared in "The
Fencing Master" She showed how
graceful it was possible for a woman to
appear while exercising, and at once
fencing masters We're in demand.
Now there are at least half Il dozen
places in Chicago where women may
learn fencing. New York has many So
Cioty women who can parry a thrust of
steel as we'll as give one, and in San Fran
i
the women who lead the social whirl
and who can fence well are not consid-
cred at all eccentric
Among the most expert of Chicago's $
fair feuccrs is Miss Florence Higin-
botham, whose father was president of
the Worlds fair. She first handled a
foil two years ago, but since then she
has become so skillful that ON one occa-
sion she succeeded in disarming her
teacher, much TO mOnsiCur's Chagrin.
She has an armOry fitted up in her home,
and there she and her girl friends have
may friendly bout. Perhaps the Sc
cret Of her success lies in the fact that
she is constantly practicing with her
brother, who is an excellent swordsman.
Miss HiginbOtham is tall, slight
young woman, and it is revelation to
see her handle a foil. One would think
that her wrists would ache fearfully aft
er she had swung her weapon for a few
moments, but there are muscles of steel
under that smooth skin, for Miss Higin-
botham is an enthusiastic hOrscwoman
and long ago acquired strength by
handling the reins. Her fencing room
has cork floor, which gives firm foot
hold and deadens the noise of stamping
feet.
The girls of the University of Chicago
have also taken mp fencing recently in
spite of the disapproval of President
Harper. They have engaged a maitre
d'armes, and the clash of steel now re-
sounds through their big gymnasium.
Some Of the girl students at the Chicago
Art school are also learning the mystic
ries of carte and tierce. Among the we'll
known New York women who fence is
Mrs, Theodore Havemeyer, wife of the
sugar king,
II find that the wrist is woman's
weak point in learning to use foils,
said a somewhat celebrated and very
popular fencing master to me. "They
are quick, graceful and soon learn how
to handle their bodies with good effect,
but it often takes many months for them
to develop the required wrist muscles SO
necessary in a spirited bout.

has the satisfaction of being engaged in q
good work, but he knows that If he dou-
bles the membership Of his branch and
builds new home for it he will be pro-
NOTED to larger and more important field
At the head of the associations in the
United States and Canada is the interna-
tional committee, which has its headquar-
ters in New York city. This committee is
composed of AZ members, all representative
Christian laymcn, who are assisted in their
work by force of 80 secretaries. In this
committee are such men as Cornelius Van

son Of the Brooklyn millionaire and phi

lowering, the Baltimore coffee importer,
who was the Prohibitionist candidate for
president last fall.
The international committee is the exec
utive factor of the organization. 1t was
organized 81 years ago and originally con-
sisted of only five members but its num-
bers have been increased until now, besides
the AZ regular members, there are Is ad-
Visory members, 52 corresponding mem
bers in as many different states and prov
inces, and 10 trustees, who handle all be-
quests of money and property TO be held in
trust. The duties of this committee are
manifold. 1t gives advice and assistance
to state organizations, carries out the in
structions of the biennial conventions and
generally promotes the spiritual, intellec-
tual and physical welfare of the assocla-
tions.
At the coming convention special effort
will be made to bring to the attention of
the delegates the work done in the educa-
tional classes, and associations which main
tain these classes have been asked to send
specimens and reports of their work. Each
branch of the association will be heard
from and the various lines of effort will be
discussed by men who have made a study
OF them. The place and use of athletics,
the scope and prominence Of industrial
education, the proper methods of Bible
study, the work among the boys and the
purpose and problems of establishing boys
camps, the influence which the college as
sociations should WELD In their wide
field, the railroad department., the details
OF more perfect organization-all these
will form topics for debate and the ex-
change Of views
Mr.. Richard @. Morse, who as general
secretary Of the associations will be one of
the prominent figures at the convention,
has already arranged complete pro-
gramme of the different sessions, so that
the work will be done in thorough and
systematic manner. The local association
In Mobile will entertain the delegates with
true southern hospitality. The chief fea-
tune of the entertainment will be lunch
con, to which all the visiting members
and delegates will be invited. There will
be speeches Of welcome by the Mobile city
officials and responses by prominent Y.

WILLARD E. CASE.
A Wealthy Scientist who Has Made Some
Important Discoveries.


Mr.. Willard Z. Case, whose discovery
Of a method of transforming carbon di-
rectly into electrical energy without the
medium Of heat has caused a greater
sensation in scientific and industrial
circles than anything of a similar ma
ture since the Rocntgen ray was ex-
plotted, is one Of those few men of
wealth who devote a large portion of
their means and time to scientific in
vestigation.
Mr.. Case was born in Auburn, n. Y,
in 1851, and after attending the public
schools and studying under private tu-
tors was graduated from Hamilton col
loge law school at the age Of 28. 1t was
his intention to follow profession, and
he was admitted to the bar. His tastes,
however, We're in different direction.
While waiting for clients he began ex-
perimenting with electricity and finally
gave up his law Office altogether and de-
voted himself entirely to scientific re-
search. 1t was not long before he made
his mark in this field In 1886 he read
paper before the Royal society Of Lon
