STOP BUT TWENTY MINUTES.
CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR TRAINS
TO BE KEPT MOVING.
Local Union Meetings and Concert
Rehearsals to be Held
Tonight. .

A meeting of the local Christian En-
deavor Committee of '97 at the West
minister Presbyterian Church last even
ing, was well attended, and was OF
purely business nature.
The Secretary, Grove Elkins, stated
that at the present time 1t was uncer-
tain as TO whether few or many Oh the
visiting delegations will stop over IN
the city, and it was equally uncertain
how long the trains would De helo
over For those reasons he deemed IL
important that everything should be IN
readiness to extend TO the visitors every
courtesy. Conveyances ought to be
engaged to show them about the city
provided long stops occurred, and pains
ought to be taken to make them un-
derstand they had fallen among friends.
The local Reception Committee, MI
Elkins said, is composed of 162 per-
sons and about hundred others VIII
be added before tomorrow night, ready
for work at the depot Tuesday morn
ing. at which time the delegations will
begin to arrive He also stated that
over a hIfudred Endeavorers would be
required to travel to San Francisco on
the trains bearing the visitors, for the
purpose of explaining matters and put
ting them right before they shall have
arrived in San Francisco. A canvass
was taken and it was found that no
more than twenty-five persons had as
Yet volunteered for that service. Com
mittees, however, are at work and IL
is felt certain that the full complement
viii have volunteered before the East
ern delegations begin to arrive.
Rev. A. c. Herrick announced that
he had Information from Superinten-
dent Wright of the Southern Pacific
Company, that no train will stop in
Sacramento longer than thirty minutes.
l.. r. Hatfield submitted that it
would be impossible for the local En-
deavorers who make the trip to San
Francisco with the visitors, to choose
their train, and that they should visit
the depot ready to take any train to
which they might be detailed. Mr..
Hatfield's suggestion was adopted.
Several pastors of the city churches
spoke encouraging words to the COM
mittee and urged its members to do
all in their power to properly entertain
the visiting delegations.
1t was announced that union meet
ing of all of the Young Peoples Socie-
ties in the city will be held at the
Congregational Church at 6 o'clock this
evening. The members who will sing
in the grand chorus at San Francisco,
viii rehearse, and Miss Ida Clinch
