ANOTHER MARVELLOUS STRIKE
Dog Creek, Up the Yukon, Promise to Be Greater Than Klondyke.

San Francisco, Dec. 10.-News of a marvellous strike, that in richness is said to exceed Klondyke, is brought down from Alaska by K. A. Smith, formerly of Colorado. This old min- CT came into Seattle on the steamer Farallon, having spent seventeen years in Alaska. Smith says Daw- son City was in a whirl of excitement November 1, when the first report was brought in of a big and rich strike on Dog creek. This stream is fifty miles up the river from Dawson, on the south side of the Yukon. The first claim was located by Chubby Peterson of Peoria, III. He struck bed rock at seven feet and his first clean up showed nearly $8,000. Other claims were immediately located and when Smith left five had reached bed rock, and were banning out from $500 to $1 200 day. A stampede resulted, hundreds of claims were located, and men who had been nearly famished from want of food summoned up re newed courage and strength to reach Dog creek, where SO much gold was being taken out.

MoBpEp SEVEN TIMES.
Experience of Venerable Mr.. Fields
Personal Mention of others.


One of the honored members of the Chris
tian convention is J. G. Fields, of Ken
lucky, who, in his time, was mobbed on
seven different occasions, and though he
came near being lynched each time. yet
he still lives to tell a remarkable story. Mr..
Fields is eighty-one years old and is still
hale and hearty as the saying goes. In 1S47
he went into the wilderness of central Ken
lucky and preached to and taught the few
settlers about him. In the course of years
he developed two hobbies, that of co-edu-
cation of the two sexes, without regard to
color, and the doctrine of abolition. Such
ideas were counted as rank heresy among
his neighbors, and during the bitter feeling
preceding the war, he was subjected to
many indignities as we'll as to seven at
tempts to mob him. 1t is interesting to lis
ten to Mr.. Field narrate the manner in
which he escaped the lynchers. at was all
done by faith and prayer" he says. On one
occasion, when the lynching bee was of
uetermIEed character, the worthy preacher
appealed for the opportunity to say
prayer before the rope was pulled that was
TO swing him from the tree Thinking the
request quite reasonable he was allowed to
pray, but the prayer grew in length and
fervor and long before it was ended the
WOuld-be lyncherS grew abaShed and skunk

escapes are related by the old gentleman
whose fundamental principle through lie
has been that of love to God and love to
man. as he himself expresses it.

overwhelming majority. III the action Of

creed will no longer be a condition of fell
lowhsip in the church and the old declara-
ton of principles will remain in the con-
stitution OF the convention merely as a pro-
fession of faith. The new conditions of fell
lowship are intended to be propositions on
which all Universalists can agree, and as
such received the Endorsement of the pres
ent convention. The new conditions of fell
lowship, as slightly modified to-day, are:
The acceptance of the essential principles
of the Universalists' faith, to wit: % The
universal fatherhood of God; (2l the spir
itual authority and leadership of His Son.
Jesus Christ 90 the trustworthiness of
the Bible as containing a revelation from
God; "a the certainty of just retribution
for sin; (5) the final harmony of all souls
with God.
The basis of delegate representation on
the floor OF the convention was so altered
that about twice as many will be eligible
for fellowship as hitherto, provided the ac-
ton is ratified by the next biennial session.
The basis of representation provides that
conventions hereafter shall be composed
of the officers of the state delegations now
in it's fellowship, of its own board of trus-
tees and of delegates. Each state conven-
ton shall be entitled to two clerical and
four lay delegates, or having an aggre-

session of the Womans Home Missionary
Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church
was devoted entirely to listening to and
discussing reports from the heads of the
various branches of the work. That which
excited the greatest interest was the report
of the bureau for Orientals. written by Mrs.
L. p Williams, it's secretary, in the course
of which it is asserted that the traffic in
young girls for vicious purposes is carried
on among the Chinese in this country es-
pecially in San Francisco, on a system
which practically amounts to slavery, and
that such girls are bought and sold for
prices ranging from 800 to $500, and that
the courts have been known to tacitly sane
ton the traffic. Other reports received and
discussed were from Mrs j. L. MILESTONE,
Of the bureau of the east Southern States
from Mrs. II. c. Hedges, of the bureau Of
Mississippi and from Mrs. Mary Fisk Park,
of the Watts de Puyster Home.

Some of the Visitors Comments on
Mayor Taggart's Actions.

NayOr AcllOnSs
The strain under which many of the dele
gates have been laboring for the past week
began to develop signs of fatigue in their
manner and appearance yesterday, and
many of them took the trains for their sew
eral homes during the day and evening.
The registration passed the two thousand
mark yesterday. The delegates were pro-
fuse in their compliments about the city
and the hospitality extended them, and are
cry much elated over the unexpected
greatness of their convention. The local
people did not look for such a gathering,
and more extended preparations would
have been made had they known how
many were coming. The central location of
the city, many of the delegates say, par
TALLY accounts for the unprecedented at
tendance, and it will be difficult for the
Chattanooga convention to maintain the
record established by the present gathering.
The Taggart incident furnishes about the
only unpleasant memory which the dele

voiced the sentiment of many last night
