others who Joined In the discussion were
Miss Perkiu. Mr.. J. J. Wilson, Mr.. ID. +.
Snow of Yarmouth. and Mr.. Kenneth
Mcdonald, all OF whom seemed to feel that
card playing and theatre going were
surely detrimental to Christian work.
The next question for discussion was on
the subject, "What are the churches do
ing for our irrelgious young mem" and
this was opened by Mr.. ID. p. Hatch, who
rather took exception to the word 'irro-
ligious." The speaker felt that ths class
so designated would rather resent the re-
Election, for they might be light-hearted or
indifferent, but he felt that most young
men are as naturally religious rs are
young women. Furthermore Mr.. Hatch
felt that In his personal efforts In ad-
preaching some Of these young men who
seemed indifferent, he had generally met
with a warm response. After they are
reticeut and object to the formal and open
confession of their faith. Mr.. Hatch also
felt 1t was but natural to regard the
young man In this way, as II 1t were
necessary to specialize him. Mr.. Hatch
made an eloquent appeal for deeper and
broader work from the pulpit on Sunday,
to be supplemented by "a cooperation from
the people In their work through the
week
Rev. Gowen G. Wilson had word to
say for the work in the church and seemed
to feel that much was done, although
perhaps not enough.
DR.. Jenkins then arose and said in his
most witty and attractive fashion that
too much was expected OF the church !;
that all the faults OF the world were put
upon 1t, but he felt 1t was question
precisely what the work OF the church
should be. Er. jenkins said he agreed
with Mr.. Harris that it was too bad to
SO specialize the young men, rs being
the most conspicuous class for conversion.
Mr.. Wright felt that they must be
specialized because they were the future
of the nation. but DIR. jenkins said that
although he always believed what Mr..
Wright said, he felt that sermons might
better be preached on family life, than
those especially TO young men. After this.
MIR. Hatch and MIR. Bean both spoke
earnestly on the question, and the meet
ing ad jourLed with singing and bene.
diotion by Rev. 4. NJ. Davis,
A collation. was served la the vestry and
the evening service WAS very interest
ing and helpful one with addresses by
DR.. Jenkins and Mr.. Leroy ). Bean.

CURIOSITY IN CANNED GOODS.

A Portland merchant had in his posses
sion this week an article in the canned
goods line which was curiosity. 1t was
an oval No. / size tin. Theoretically
sealed, of what purportsd TO be lobster.
packed at Cape Town. Africa. Investiga-
ZION indicated that it was probably craw-
fish. There were two pieces in each tin.
The tail of the fish looked like that of II
lobster but there were no large or small
claws. The meat was white and sweet,
but coarse, and had the pungent odor OF
the shrimp. This Is probably the same
fish TINT is packed in southern California
and alsn called lobster. The can is pecu
liar. 1t was probably manufactured in
France; perfect as TO finish and style, but
no vent hole could be found upon 1t, as
is seen on every can packed here. Herein
is puzzle to which no expert seems able
to give any solution. 1t Ia said that but

PORTLAND FESTIVAL CHORUS.

W. X. Chapman OF New York was pres
ent at the rehearsal OF the Festival chorus
last night. 1t was u pleasure to with ,ts
the enthusias SIN and interest which he in
spired. The thoro ughly musicianly way
In which he interpreted the difficult
choruses from the Messiah seemed to put
new life into the work and the chorus
sang under his direction with remarkable
intelligence and finish. Many of the
choral numbers are new, and have been
recently taken in hand for rehearsal, but
the critics safely predict that the per
formance OF 1.-The Messiah" next October,
when it is given complete by the magnl
tcent Festival chorus. with Mr.. Chap
mans fine interpretation. will mark 1t as
one of the most remarkable and enjoy
able concerts of the entire Festival. We
trust MIR. Chapman may be able to secure
Ffrangcon Davies again to sing The
Messiah as he did in Elijah last fall.
MIR. Chapman is making an extended
tour through the state ut this time visit
ing many of the choruses and conducting
every night. He has just finished his
first series of concerts in New York and
left his choruses under the care of sub
conductors while he makes this tour, He
returns the 9th of February to New York
for another series of concerts there that
month. Mr.. Chapman Is very much
pleased with the work that is being done
oil over the state by the Festival choruses
this season. Mr.. Hyde, MIR. Maxim and
the other conductors are working with
good results and the best of feeling exists
among the members
