THE SAN FRANCISCO CONVENTION
No Trouble Between Christian Endenvor
Officials ard Railroads.

Boston, January 81 In view of the
fact that the press of the country has
very generally printed despatch dated
at Chicago claiming that the Christian
Endeavor officials were planning to with
oraw the convention FROM san Francisco
because the personal favors to officials
were rot satisfactory, General Secretary
BaeF, Monday, telegrephed Chairman
Caldwell Of the Western and 1ransconvi-
mental lines:
"Chioago press dispatches in morning
papers state that we ara Ql5Easttslied be-
cause personal fnvors OF C0ncesaions have
not been satisfactory. The statement
does US great injustice. We have per-
sonally st8ivea for the LII partial handling
of the business and ask only Tor low rate
and & reasonaDls time limit, and ers
not interested in further concessions of
any kind whatever"
am pleased TO receive the assurance given
in your telegram. Vote on proposition
not fully completed; expect to be closed
up today will advise quickly rs possible.
"B. ID. CALDWELL.
Mir. Baer confidently expects the rail
roads will agree to q very low rate and
a time limit On tickets that will be per-
feotly satisfactory to all. He bids the
Endeavor ers to ignore unauthorized and
misleading statements that may be
made pending. official announcements
which will soon be given to the public.

A True Bear Story.
lHarpers Magazine.

Sneaking Of law andsth enforcement of
discipline in Yellowstone Park, I heard
the story of bear there, which 1 con-
slider exceedingly important not only as
a comment on the discipline of the park,
but as g moral lesson to parents in do
nestle obedience. The story is literally
true, and if it were not L should not re-
peRt it, for it would have ne value. Mr..
Kipling says he law of the jungle is
obey' This also sesms to De the law of
Yellowstone Park. There is a lunch
station at the upper basin, near Old
Faithful, kept by very intelligent and
ingenious n1an. He got acquainted last
year with she bear, who used to come
Kitchen for food for hereelf ana her two
cubs. The cubs never came. The keep
or get on very intimate terms with the
bear, who was always civil ana well-be-
haved, and would take food from his
hand (Tithout taking the hano.) One
day toward sunset the bear came to the
kitchen ana having received her portion
she went out Of the back door co carry it
to her Gu bs. 70 her surprise and anger
the cubs were there waiting for her. She
laid down the food and rushed aG her
infants and gave sthem rousing spank
ing. "She did not cuff them: she
spanked them," and then abe drove
them back into the woods, cufnng them
and knocking them at every STEP. When
she reached the spot where she had told
them 30 wait she left them there and re-
Gurned to the house. And there she
stayed in the Kitchen for two whole
hours making the diaobedient children
wait for their food, simply TO discipline
them and teach them obedience. The
explanation is very natural. When the
bear leaves her young in a particular
place and goes in search of fond for them,
If they strRy away in her absence she has
greet difficulty in finding them. The
mother knew that the safety of her cubs
upon strict discipline in the family. Oh,
thasswe bad moro such mothers in the
United State IS.

Range Of Modern Artillery.

THE range of the modern artillery, by
which is meant the guns that have beer
constructed within tho last ten OF fifteen
years, would astonish tina artillerists OF
q generation ago. The artillerists of the
war considered three Or four miles an
extremely long range, and few, indeed,
were55the gums capable Of doing execution
at this distance Now the long range
artillery carry with ease a shot from ten
to twelve miles, while in few cases
cannon of exceptional construction have
carried shot from eighteen to ninetsen
miles. 1t is possible with one of these
long range guns for an artillerist at
Gibraltar to bonn bard the coast of Africa
and il the present rate of improvement
continues, the time is not far distant
when the forts Of Calais and Dover,
twenty miles apart, may exchange an
effective fire of proieotiles.-s Louis

"Ferdinand, what are you doing with

The voice of Mrs. Peokleigh was stern
and severe as she sat up in bed.

her husband, who in reality was going

sewing buttons on them to make good his
little bluff.-New York Sunday Journal.
