Christian Alliance

Yesterday there was marked increase
of interest at the Christian alliance conven-
ton. The editor of Reality spoke on
"The Mutual Love and Honor Between the
Three Persons of the Godhead." In the
afternoon Elder Wagner spoke on Dangers
and counterfeits Lying Near the Path Of
a Full Spiritual Life" Pastor A. j. Frost
followed with Bible readings on the church
as the depository Of the Holy Ghost. In the
evening Mr.. Wilkerson of Pomona gave a
discourse on "The Holy Spirit as the Be-
LEVERS Personal Comforter" Today, after
the o'clock prayer hour, Messrs. Tooker OF
Santa Monica and Watson, the evangelist,
will speak upon 'The Glorified Jesus as the
Coming King" In the afternoon Mrs. Ada
U. Walton will narrate her experience OF
miraculous healing over five years ago, and
Evangelist Evans will follow with an ad-
dress upon "The Glorifed Church Accom-
panying the Returning Christ as His Bride"
In the evening Messrs Newell of Bethany
Presbyterian church and Watson will speak
on ''The Earthly Kingdom of Christ" The

street.

Opening the Tunnel Bids

The opening of the bids for the construc-
tion OF the two tunnels on Third street and
Broadway respectively has caused no little
discussion. Twelve bids were submitted for
the Third-street work and eleven bids for
the Broadway opening. There is such wide
range OF difference in the figures that it looks
as II some serious error may have been COM
mitted in figuring by the lowest bidders,
a majority of the bids being largely in ex.
cess OF the amount for which the work ia
offered to be- done by the lowest men. The
difference between the highest and lowest
bid on each piece of work is, in round num-
bcrs, about $4,000, making total dif.
ference of say $4,000 on work which the citv
engineer estimated could be done for sl6O'.
goo, the amount Of the bonds voted. The two
lowest bids taken together fall about $4,000
less than the amount appropriated, but the
assertion is strongly made in we'll posted
quarters that it will be impossible to carry
out the work according to specifications for
the figures named In one case that has come
to our knowledge a bidder secured the seryi-
ces OF first-class engineering authorities and
had them make their calculations indepena.
emily of one another, so that he could bid
with more assurance. In the calculations
these two authorities produced figures that

NEW YORK, Dec 2S-Contrary to the
course Of the stock market for some weeks
past, 1t showed decline on the days deal
ing and this was opposed to the tendency
abroad, London having bought some 5000
shares on balance. The volume of business
was large, though not up to yesterdays
record breaking figures. The greater part
or the business done was during the morn
Ing rise, while the afternoons decline was
also accompanied with a burst of anima-
tion. There was no change in the favora-
ble tenor OF the news, except that the Van
derDilt reports were not considered UP to
bullish expectations. The regular divi-
dends were declared on Vanderbilt stocks
and American Tobacco. Traffic reports
were generally gratifying. Burlington's
surplus for November was increased near
~ $2SS 600. While stocks were strong at the
opening. New York prices were not up to
those OF London, where Americans were
buoyant. The grangers and coalerl were
strong. The advance IN the LATTER, ths
throughout, was perhaps explained by a
prices had been ordered advanced at Buff
falo and Chicago. 1t became evident that
there had been large realizing sales on yes
terday, and traders attacked the general
list with considerable success. Sugar was
weak, owing to the trade situation, in the
early dealings when the rest Of the list was
strong, and at the close was an exception
to the general weakness.
The bond market was irregular in spots,
but active issues suffered somewhat in the
late transactions Total sales, 81, 100000
United States old fours, coupon, advanced

Cathedral Christmas Tree

The scholars of the cathedral Sunday
school and pupils of the parachial school par
ticipated in very pretty Christmas enter
tainment yesterday afternoon at Turnve-
rein hall, provided by the inhefatigable labor
of Father McAuliffe, aided by the teachers.
The little people gave play entitled THE
Dollikns Flats" and did some excellent
singing, acting the sentiment expressed in
the words. A large tree occupied the rear
of the stage, lighted with candles and cleo
trio lamps. Santa Claus in an appropriate
costume made little speech to the children
and precipitated the surprise of the occasion
in presenting Father McAuliffe with life
size portrait of himself, recently painted
by Miss Helen Coan. The portrait was the
gift of the choir and the teachers and was a
complete surprise to the recipient After
the exercises, handsome presents and candy
were distributed to the scholars.
All prices of wall paper greatly reduced.
