Praise Service, led by Rev. J. G..

Song by class of boys from the
Baptist Sunday School.
Address by A. H. Cross, of Toledo.
Subject: "Keys that Unlock"
Devotion: The right kind not the
devotion that is manifest once in a
while, but the steady constant kind.
1t may take you into danger. The
great men in any line are the devoted
men. The reason why some succeed
in Sunday School work is because they
give the best they have.
Study: Real hard study is neces-
sary for successful Sunday School
work. There are many teachers who
just iOOh oNCl thCil lCooOl
and many that overlook them.
If you want anything bad enough in
your school you can have it.
Tact: You must have ability to
make rules to cover exceptions.
Sympathy: We need it more and
more every day.
Mr. Cross gave several examples, of
where sympathy has saved many.
Golden key of affection: We must
plan how We can save boys and girls.
Affec- --on on the part of the school
teacher is necessary.

onds were put under arrest.

battalions of modern armed Chinese,
sent to Kiangsi to assist the Governor
in putting down the rioting against
the Roman Catholic missionaries, dis
persed and took their impedimenta to
the hills. 1t is thought that they were
Kalao Hui, secret society men.
1t is reported that between seventy
and eighty piratical craft infest the
waterways at Canton. The steamer
Cheong Kong was robbed of $1,000 N
gold, seventeen cases of opium and a
large amount of personal property. The
Captain and several officers were
wounded.
A hard fight took place between

M. T. Kearney of Fresno Gives an
Interesting Summary of the
History Of the Grape in Cali
fornia, and the Benefits to His
County Since the Growers Had
Formed Their Combination to
Protect Prices.

SAN JOSE, Dec. 14.-This mornings
session of the Horticultural Convention
was one of great interest not only to
the members, but it means much for
the agriculture of this great State.
M. Theodore Kearney of Fresno,
President and General Manager of the
California Raisin Growers Associa-
ton, opened the discussion. His sub
ject was 1.-The Raisin Industry-Re-
view of the Seasons Output and Opera
ton of Cooperative Organizations;
Fruitfulness, Varieties of Fruits to be
Encouraged, etc, and Cooperation
Among the Farmers as Applied to the
Raisin Industry"
This address was really mastery
summary of the history of the grape
in California, with special reference to
the raisin. He showed the period of
terrible depression, and stated that in
two years there was a loss in assess
ment in Fresno County of well on to
two million dollars through the de-
preston in the industry. Then the
growers got together and formed their
combination They control 70 per
cent. of the total product and growers,
are prosperous and contented, and
Fresno County is prosperous.
The address made a profound impress
sion. A committee was appointed to
look after the publication of the speech,
which shall be distributed free to the
fruit growers of the State
The address of A H. Naftzger of Los
Angeles will also be printed in the
same pamphlet, not less than 10000
copies to be issued.
A resolution protesting against any
reciprocity treaty with Jamaica,
France or elsewhere which will injure
the fruit industry of the State was Of
fered and went to the committee.
A resolution protesting against the
adulteration of food products, olive
oil, wine, ETC., was offered and went to
the same committee. This announces
as the sense of the convention that
Congress should enact laws against
food adulteration as such practice will
not only ruin CALIFORNIA; great agricul-
tural industries but those of the entire
country as we'll.
There seems to be no doubt of the
adoption of both resolutions, and they
will be sent to CALIFORNIA; representa-
tives in Congress.

The Biograph Caused a Groan.

1t seems that among the treasures
displayed by biograph man now in
the Crescent City is a series showing
a crowd of spectators surging along
lower Fifth avenue. The figures in the
foreground include a chubby young
man in Scotch cap holding a box
camera in both hands, and evidently
taking snap shots at the throng. He
appeared at the lower right-hand cor
ner of the scene, crossing rapidly to-
ward the left, and, just before the film
ended, he turned his face so that he
was looking directly at the people in the
theater, and smiled This individual
was Immediately recognized as a young
man whose abrupt departure from New
Orleans not long ago was the scene of
great grief among numerous creditors
and overconfiding friends. He passed
as a newspaper correspondent, and de-
veloped a good deal of talent as an
all-round beat. When his counterfeit
preSentment flashed into motion on the
biograph screen deep groan went up
from victims In several different parts
of the theater. Most deeply grieved of
all who saw the first exhibition in New
Orleans was man himself in the pho
tograph line. He not only recognized
the chubby young man, but he recog
nized the camera in the young mans
hand as one stolen from himself just
before the youth so hastily started for

country Of the recent ruling as to the
status of married women as Postof1ice
clerks led to a statement to-day by
First Assistant Postmaster General
Heath. He reiterates that the pres
ence of, husband and wife as clerks in
the same Office is inimical to the serv
ice, and that her position should go to
some one who had no means of support.
He says: II intend to apply this ruling
to female clerks who in the future
marry. Female Postoffice clerks already
married, and whose employment under
their married names had been approved
by the department, will not be disturbed
under this ruling"
