SAN FRANCISCO, July 9.-Today's
proceedings and the incidents of the
great convention have fully demon
strated the fact that never before in
the history of this organization of phe-
nomenal growth has any one of it's
annual gatherings been crowned with
such success. 1t has required the eff
forts of big squad of police to keep
the people away from the monster
nails in which the meetings are being
held. For more than an hour before the
time set for the opening Of the serv-
ices this evening the streets near
WoodWard's and Mechanics pavilions
were literally packed with men, wom-
en- ana children, eager for admission. and
almost before shutdown the buildings,
capable of accommodating 20 900 peonle
were so crowded that the fire author

committees, are admirable, and every
one is pleased. Summing parties

WOmen's Missionary Society I'm
Sound Condition Financially,

The third quarterly meeting of the Mime
apollS branch OF the Women's Foreign Mis-
sionary society convened at the Bloomington
Avenue NJ. e. church this morning, beginning
at $3.50. A short conservation service, led by
Mrs. c. NJ. Heard opened the morning ses-
sion after which the roll call and appoint
ment of local committees took place. The re-
port of the treasurer was given and proved
to be one of great interest inasmuch as it
showed the Minneapolis branch, which COM
prses Minnesota and North Dakota to be
in a most excellent condition financially.
The amount of cash on hand April l was
$1,1T116, while there was received from the
various branches the amount of $2,427.03,
making a total amount of $3,59S.19 cash On
hand, including all districts FOR this quarter.
The actual expenses were 81, 2oi ~, 'eaving in
the treasury balance of 81, 1922. Mrs. r.
NJ. Hicks then read letters from various mis- .
sonaries in India, in which startling ar
counts of the famine existing there were
given.
The feature of the morning session was an
address by Miss Fowble on the Need Of
Organizing" Mis- Fowble is the new organ
iZer of the branch, and spoke FOR the first
TIM today. Miss Mabel Martin, who will
leave in September for India, as a missionary
from Hamline, gave a short address, - which
all gave the most careful attention. Singing
by the congregation followed, after which the
reading of the minutes and announcements
filled the remaining time until 1890 at which
time a hearty dinner was prepared by the
members of the church.
The Afternoon session was opened at 1:3O by
prayer and singing, under the direction Of
Mrs. J. w. Martin. During the afternoon
recitations and singing occupied greater
portion of the time, although Mrs. ]. Suydam
and Mrs. Winchell gave interesting addresses
in relation to foreign missionaries The meet
ing Closed with song and prayer. The next
annual meeting will be held In Red Wing,

earnest work is being done, and the
practical results of the convention will
be surprising when the full record is
written.
The regular sessions of the conven-
ton were resumed simultaneously at
the big pavilions at $50 o'clock. At
Wcodward's pavilion, President Clark
presided, and r. Powell Evans, of
San Francisco, was musical director.
After singing and devotional exercises,
conducted by Rev. James MacLean, of
Great Village, Nova Scotia, an ad-
dress on the senior society of Chris
tan Endeavor was delivered by Barton
w. Perry, of San Leander, Cal. The
next address was on Christian En-
deavor and the Sunday Evening Ser
vice" by Rev. Jacob w. Knapp, of
Richmond, Ind. He pointed out various
methods by which the society may
add to the evening meetings of the
church. This was followed by the
open parliament under the charge of
w. B. Philput, of Philadelphia.
The convention at the Mechanics
pavilion was opened by w. H Mccoy,
secretary of the Y. NJ. C. A. of this
city. Devotional exercises We're con-
Quoted by Rev. w. K. Spencer, oc

The Evangelistic meetings at noon
were conducted by Rev Robert f.

liam Patterson of To onto, Ont, at the
Y. M. c. A; Evangelist Davis, of South
India, and Rev. J. w. Chapman, of
Philadelphia, at the chamber of COM
merce, and Rev. George F. Pentecost,
of New York, at the Emporium. All
were largely attended. In the open
parliamentary session at Woodward's
pavilion, many members partic. pated,
and there was an interesting and in
st1 ucive discussion. The afte nool wa
devoted to conference of committee
officers ard pastors.
The second Illinois delegation, con-
sisting of 800 delegates, was late in
arriving, reaching the city in the ear
ly hours of the morning. Just as the
Southern Pacific officials were congrau-
Ulating themselves that they would
land all excursion trains in this city by
shutdown this evening, their joy was
changed to sorrow by dispatch from
the Salt Lake superintendent. In his
telegram that officer said he had been
apprised that 1000 more passengers
Of whom he had no notification from
connecting lines, would be turned over
to the Southern Pacific. He could not
say when they would reach Ogden,
and the chances are that these tardy
arrivals will only see the close of the
convention. The total number of reg
istrations at headquarters this morn
ing is announced as nearly 10000, of
whom about 1000 are from California

CARRIED HER OFF.
Young Woman Abducted at the Mid
night Hour.

senSa tional abduction, shrouded in deep
est mystery, occurred at about 1890 Thurs
day night on Ninth avenue south, between
Sixteenth and Seventeenth streets. At that
hour man in a light top buggy, driving
a single horse, refined up at the west side
of the avenue, and, leaping from the buggy,
seized a woman who was about to pass on
the sidewalk dragged her into the rig, and
in spite of her struggles and cries for help
drove rapidly away. No cue as to the iden-
tity of either the woman or her brutal
aSsailant has been obtained by the police,
who are working on the case.
The abduction was witnessed by a gentle
man who resides at Seventeenth street and
Ninth avenue. He was sitting in ham
mock on the porch, awaiting the return of
his daughter, who spent the evening at Lake
Harriet. Noticing a young woman coming
up the avenue from Sixteenth street, he
stepped down to meet her. thinking she
was his daughter. AS he reached the side
walk a horse and buggy went by at rapid
pace, and before the as onished man had
time to interfere the abductor had accom-
plished his purpose. AS soon as he could
gather his senses the citizen gave chase
after the rapidly disappearing buggy, and fol-
lowed it as far as Nineteenth street, where
it was lost in the darkness.
AS the buggy went past the residence of
e. Il. Hinton, manager of the Manning Ly-
ceum bureau, Eighteenth street and Ninth
avenue, he, was aroused by the woman S
screams and wild cries for assistance The
windows were open and Mr.. Hinton could
clearly distinguish the words. He caught
one tieeting glimpse of the rig and occupants,
and says that the woman was struggling VIC
lently to escape, but was held in a close
embrace from which she was powerless to
free herself When she screamed the man
called out savagey: shut up; close your
= mouth or I'll cut your throat
both Mr.. Hinton and the citizen who gave
chase agree that the victim was a young
woman, and the latter is inclined to think
from her appearance that she was a servant
girl.
Rev: Father Christie. who lives in the
neighborhood was among the first to hear
of the affair. and he invoked the assistance
OF the police. Three detectives have been
detailed on the case

THREE RECRUITS FOR BLUES.
Runaways From Kansas City Reach
minneapolis.

AS the limited freight over the Kansas
City railroad came to a stop in the yards
this morning, three little urchins were seen
to jump from an empty box car. The men
in charge gave chase and soon overlook
them at the foot of Tenth avenue, where it
Yves found that they had occupied the car
for the space of three days, or since leaving
Kansas City. They were faint from hunger,
having eaten but little since their departure.
Each lad carries a backing brush box,
the only means with which to earn a hveli-
hood. Two, who caves their names Tom
Lewis and Sam Kemp. were not to- exceed
twelve years of age, while their companion,
a colored lad of Southern type, gave the
name of Jack Bolton and his age as fifteen
years. Upon questioning them as to their
reason for their trip it was found that they
intended to be present at the Elk convention,
but it seems that in some manner they had
made a mistake in the date and when it
was found that they were too late. the ex-
preston upon their faces was most ludicrous.
A party Of gentlemen contributed a small
amount of money with which to get their
meals for the day, and the last seen of them
was turning into Washington avenue. They
had no hats, save white dirty handkerchief
tied about their heads, and clothes that were
intended for warm weather only.
Later on 1t was learned that the Kansas
City base ball club will take them back
when they return as they are known by sew
eral of the DlaVerS

RISE NOT YET ENDED.
Mississippi River Creating Havoc at
the BOOmS

The Mississippi river has been steadily
rising for the past week, and up to last night
from July l, had reached the nine-foot mark,
or to be more accurate, nine feet and two
inches. The river has risen at the rate Of
one foot per day, and the indications are
that it will still continue to rise for few
da7s at least. The various streams which
feed the Mississippi run through district
wnlch has been experiencing unusually heavy
rains and as natural result, the rivers are
swollen to their banks and consequently
erect the volume of water here.
Along what is known as the fats the
water has reached several of the houses,
and already some Of the occupants of those
near by are beginning to make preparations
to move on short notice. The lower dam
is still in good condition, but if the pressure
should increase much more trouble may be
expected, but everything is being done pos
sible to prevent any breakage. Several log
booms were broken during yesterday after
noon, and as a result thousands of logs have
been carried over the falls. The various
mills have closed down, and will remain so
until the water recedes. No damage beyond
the breaking of several booms has been re-
ported, although number of houses situated
in the fats are being secured by means Of
ropes to keep them from moving off the
