The state, provincial and foreign dele
cations were grouped in designated
punches. divided about equally between
two tents. Each had its own particular
rally cry and each delegation took
pleasure in making it known to the ex-
tent of it's lung power. The delegatlons
which were not shouting were singing.
Music Conductor Foster, finally made
himself heard without the aid of
megaphone and all the voices were
turned into the inspiring volume of
Holy Hely, Holy, Lord God Almighty

The following statements as to at
tendance, etc, was given out by Sec
rotary Baer:
without doubt the attendance at
this convention has very much exceeded
that of any Christian EndeavOr cOnven-
ton ever held in the matter of those
present at the various meetings This
estimate takes into account the great
convention at Boston in 1895 That IS
to say, that out of the $4,000 EndeavOr-
ers registered. which is the estimate
of the reception committee and includes
Detroit members, there have been more
who attended meetings than at any
previous time. The estimate Of attend
ance at meetings gives a total of 29S, 500.

Thirty thousand, five hundred per-
sons simultaneously attended strictly
Christian EndeaVOr meetings.
These figures do not include the six

enthusiasm.
During a recess in these responses
each member of the '99 committee was
called out. They were told that the 80
convention had never been eGualled as
to programme, speakers and large at
tendance at meetings. Secretary Baer
stated that although the attendance at
Detroit was rs, 900 as against sc, 400 at
Boston, that the meetings in Detroit
were those at Boston.
