Joseph Grinder Held on Charge q
Atteml,t a XIII

Joseph Grinder, an old and infirm white
an. was held to await the action OF the
grand jury this afternoon by Judge KIM
ball in the Police Court, on charge of as
saulting William Mack with intent to kill
him. Grinder was released on bail, his
brother, Edward NJ. Grinder, becoming
surety in the sum of 81 900.
Mack, white youth testified that the
22G of October he was with some compan-
ions near Grinders home in Southeast
Washington, when the old man discharged
a shotgun at the crowd, several shot strik-
ing Mack and injuring him painfully.
1t was intimated by Attorney Campbell
Darlington, who appeared as counsel for
Grinder, that the latter had been driven to
desperation by annoyances perpetrated by
the boys in the neiShborhood, and that he
had no intention of striking anyone, much
less to kill, when he discharged the shot
gun Grinder merely desired TO brighten
the boys, 1t was declared.
Judge Kimball thought the grand jury
should pass upon the case, and therefore
took the action stated.

that some of the more delicate members
may be overcome by the labors they
are compelled to undergo, and in order
that they may receive proper attention,
two Emergency Hospitals have been
arranged for, one at the Pavilion and
the other at 225 Valencia street. Trained
nurses have been secured, and the fol-
lowing physicians have volunteered
their services:

the cars of the Mraket-street Cable sys-
tenn will be operated all night for the
benefit of the Eastern visitors who will
be arriving at every hour of the day

ranged for, and boys over II years of
age are asked to volunteer for the work.
1t is expected that the Sunday-schools
and other religious organizations will
furnish these boys.

SACRAMENTO WELCOMES THEM ALL.

all his Christian Endeavor 1abors A
successful revival had brought into the
church an unusual number Of young
people, and the problem that had so Of
ten faced pastors-namely, that of
properly training these young converts
confronted DR.. Clark.
The result was the Christian En-
deavor idea. The plan was formally
presented to the young people at the
home of DR.. Clark on February 2, 1881.
1t was substantially as it is known to-
day the world around The constitution
and pledge We're signed by number of
the young people, and the first meeting
was held few days after, with a lead
er who was but seven years old. The
history of the movement since that
time is known everywhere.
DR.. Clark had written several works,
and had been favorably known for his
skill with the pen long before he gave
CHRISTIAN EndeaVor to the world, so
that it was but natural that he should
at once resort to the press as a means
OF telling the public how one church
cared for its young people. In response
to very general interest, many articles
were written for the religious press,
and book was shortly afterward pub
lished.
1t was not until 1887 that Dr. Clark
gave up his pastorate of Philips
Church, South Boston, to which he had
some time before been called, to engage
exclusively in the work of the Christian
EndeaYor movement. Since then he
has devoted, himself. heart and brain,
to the extension of this providential So
ciety among the young people. No
one, however, has been more thorough
ly amazed than DR. Clark himself at
the marvellous growth of the Christian
Endeavor Society He anticipated
nothing of what exists to-day, and of
course appropriates to himself no credit
for 1t. The fact that the movement
has extended to every country on the
globe, With possibly six exceptions,
clearly shows some other power than
that OF mere man behind the cause.
by ms addresses and writings, no less
than by his connection with the socie-
ty, DIR. Clark has become known the
world around. Beside having trav-
eled in every State and Territory of this
country, he has made several trips
abroad. He made one complete Jour
ney around the world, leaving Boston
August 4, 1892, and arriving home
about June %, 1893. The events of
this year have been attractively chron-
icled in the book Our Journey Around
the World"

The members of the Young Peoples
Societies of Christian Endeavor now
number about 500, with organizations in
the following churches: Congregational,
Christian, Fourteenth-street Presby-
I terian, English Lutheran, German Luth-
eran, Westminster Presbyterian, Oak
Park, Orangeva1e, Elk Grove and United
Brethren and Fair Oaks. The society at
Placerville was recently received into
Sacramento County Union, as it is the
only organization in El Dorado County.
The work among the boys and girls
of our county in the junior societies has
prospered. Since the first society was
formed in the Westminster Presbyterian
Church in the fall of 1892 others have
been organized in the Congregational,
Fourteenth-street Presbyterian, Chris
tian, Fair Oaks and English Lutheran
Churches, and in the Orphan Asylum;
the latter two have been disbanded,
leaving five junior societies now in the
county.
A Junior County Union was started in
1894. Mrs. Neal Dodson and Mrs. F. M.
Jones have served efficiently as County
President of the Junior Union. A. H.
Blair has recently been appointed to fill
this position.
There are splendid opportunities af-
forded Christian Endeavorers for a
large work in Sacramento County, and
while realizing that much has been ac-
complished, all now expect three-fold
increase.
Hearts have been stirred, hands put to
work and all dormant power aroused in
making Sacramento County's part in this
great international convention grand
success. By his influence, conservation
and untiring efforts, our County Presi-
dent, L. T. Hatfield, has secured the CO.
operation and sympathy not only of the
Christian Endeavorers and their friends,
but also of many of the business men Of
the city, striving to make our welcome
to our guests most cordial and earnest.

SACRAMENTO ENDEAVoRERS.
Some Features of the Society's
Work in This County.


1t is always interesting to watch be-
ginnings, and to notice how, little by
little, step by step, steady advancement
is made, until from that small start
something of worth and beauty has re-
suited. God never despises 'the day of
small things!"
The first society Of Christian Endeavor
in Sacramento County was started by
the Rev. George r. Bird at the Four
teenth-street Presbyterian Church in
1891. The Sacramento City and County
Union was the outcome of the enthusi-
asm and interest developed in the few
Christian Endeayorers that attended the
State convention at Santa Rosa in 1892.
The initial meeting to effect organi-
zation was held in the Westminster
Presbyterian Church on July 10, 1892,
with representatives from the five
Young Peoples Societies of Christian
Endeavor then in existence-the Four
teenth-street Presbyterian, Congrega-
tional, Emmanuel Baptist, Westminster,
Presbyterian and Christian. w. H. Glib
son was elected Chairman and Miss NJ.
II. Goodell, Secretary. A constitution and
bylaws We're drafted and adopted.
lowing week these We're elected the first
officers: President, w. q. McMillin;
Vice-President. A. E. Musselman; Cor
responding Secretary, Miss Jessie Ait
ken; Recording Secretary, Miss NJ. H.
GoodelI; Treasurer, Miss Jennie McCas-
lin.
1t was decided that the Executive
Committee meetings would be held once
a month and conventions every three
months At the next meeting held in
August, the new society formed at the
English Lutheran Church was welcomed
into the union. The entire number of
members in the Young Peoples Society
Of Christian Endeavor then numbered
232.
The first quarterly convention was
held in the Congregational Church dur
irg the afternoon and evening of Fri
day, January 13, 1898. The sessions We're
well filed with prayer and singing, with
interesting reports, essays and addresses
and exercises by the only junior society
then organized-the Westminster Pres
byterian.
The organization was now complete,
the work well in hand, the committees
Press. Lookout, Prayer-meeting, Mis-
sionary. Finance and Inter -county-and
the officers were "diligent in business,
serving the Lord" and the result was an
increase in every way-spiritually, num-
erically and materially.
Delegates have been sent to every
State and several international conven-
tions. The work was largely advanced
and the workers encouraged by visits
received from Rev. Francis E. Clarke,
John Willis Baer and William Shaw, re-
spectively President, Secretary and
Treasurer of the United Society OF
Christian Endeavor.
In entertaining the State convention
in '95 in our city 'the tie that binds our
hearts in mutual love- was strengthened
and the fellowship of kindred minds
was indeed like to that above"
One Sabbath evening in each quarter
during the prayer meeting hour is held
a Union Young Peoples Meeting, which
includes all the Young Peoples Societies
Of Christian Endeavor, Epworth League
and the Baptist Union
Messrs. w. G. McMillin, George A
Capen and VIII H. Gibson have most
