young people of the city and goodly
number have joined the ranks recently.
Mr.. Page, the president, is the right

reviving the interest which seemed to
lag. lie opened pp 4 set of books col
latsd up some ffteen or twenty dollars,
got the Epworth I.elg.ie Jou nal in
the hands Of a number of the members
and with the assistance of Mr.. Wagnon
has made the meetings very interesting
to these who attended. S)oa others
began 10 att, nd, new nimas began
to be enrolled, and interest was aroused.
Now the meetings are both interesting
and instructive. Mr.. Wagnon is in
charge Of the devotional feature of the
Society and it would bc hard TO find one
m >re competent. The pastor, Rev. Mr..
Ma ssabeau is interested in the work, is
regular attendant and renders valuable
assistance in the meetings. This is an
excellent Christian society, and is val

Christian EndeavOr News.

We were somewhat surprised not long
since when The Times said that the
space given to the Sunday school lesson,
Epworlh League and Christian Endeavor
was not appreciated as was the space
given to the baseball
We wish to say in behalf OF the Christ
ian Endeavors that we certainly apprc-
ciate the space 80 kindly given to our
cause, and that mention has been made
Of the fact that The Times was giving a
half column to our weekly subject. and
that we also spoke good word in b, half
of The Times. Whether this ever
reached the eyes or ears of The Times
we cannot say.
The Christian Endeavor meeting of
Monday evening july 18th. was an cy-
ceednglv interesting one. The subject
being: ''Honoring the Lords day As
the regular appointed leader was not
present, the meeting was thrown open
and the subject was thoroughly discussed
by all present.
We were specially glad to have Mcssrr.
Bartlett aud Newman, of the baseball
team, out. Both young men took part :,
which we were glad to see. We hope
others Of the baseball tam will attend
our meetings. We assure them of Il
hearty welcome.

FALL IN LINE.
Aid the City Fathers in all their
Efforts looking tn the Improve
nent of the City.

The City Council is extending the
stone curbing along the east side of
Mountain street. This is much nee led
improvement to that street. This side
walk should b, extende on to the juno
ton of the streets in rear Of the Episco-
pal church. And every property owner
should willingly donate the necessary
ground, as it would give building lots a
marketable value. 1t looks bad for ary
one to stand in the way of the progres s
of the city, especially in the mltter #
improving the streets, as has been do c
Oh the opposite side of this same stree.
The Citizens. of that end of town were
very thankful to the Council when Il ey
saw this sidewalk being extended az d
graded over tn, hill beyon the gulley,
which would allow them to go home
in bad weather without miring over
their shoes. But hardly had the side
! walk been finished hsco.e fence W 9
built entirely across the sidewalk and
] made it necessary for pedestri ms to take
the big road for the little distance of a
dozen yards or 20 through the property.
We cannot see the object of thus build
ing the fence. In the first place it is
an eyesoce to everyone going along the
street. Secondly the loss Of ground to
give the sidewalk would have been in
flint ,ssimal. Thirdly it materially in
jures the appearance of the lot and last
but not least il does not keep people
from making walkway through the lot,
said walkway taking up much more of
the lot than the sidewalk would have
done. Then, judsing from the warped,
broken and ragged appearance Of the
wir,, it has cffsred a temptation u some
plr'y OF parties mi,clievously iIcl:nej.
Step in the line of progress, Eeighbor,
contribute little might to help tie APP
pearance of the town, set your fence
back and alloy the city to finish the
sidewalk as originally intended, AMI re-
ceive the ''well-done" of al coacernel.

THE EMPRESS WEEPS
DISSOLUTION OF CHINESE EN-
PRE- is APPARENT.
One Report Has 1t That the Emperor wiz
Be Restored TO Power, While Some
Believe There WIN BE a New
Ruler Chosen.

Victoria, d. c., June 3o-It is re-
ported at Pekin, according to news re-
ceived by the Empress of China, that
the emperor will resume power next
month. Another report says that about
June 20 new emperor would be pro-
claimed. One authority believes the
new ruler will be a grandson of the
late Prince Kung; another asserts that
a grandson OF the fifth prince prince
Tun) has been chosen to succeed
Kuang Hsu.
The empress dowager is said to be
altogether ''out of sorts, full of anxi-
ETY., and much given to weeping. The
palace is far from enjoying state of
harmony.
The cabinet is little better. Wang
Wen Shao pleads age and in6rmity,
and then relapses into silence. Kang-
vi is jealous of the immense power
now welded by Jung Lu and despises
him for his inexperience in important
government business; but both hold
together for the maintenance of the
empress dowager and the enrichment
of the Manchus, whose present watch
word is, at is going, grab as much as
possible while the chance lasts"

TRIED TO CUT HIS THROAT.


How a Californian Avoided Hearing His
Death Sentence.
Sacramento, June 30.-George Put
nam, who murdered John Showers in
Folsom prison, while being shaved
yesterday preparatory to being taken
into court to hear the death sentence,
siezed the razor from the man who
was shaving him, sprang to his feet
and then deliberately walked to a mir
ror and drew the razor across his
throat.
The cut, while very severe, did not
sever the jugular vein, and Putnam will
recover. The passing of sentence was
continued until Saturday.
Putnam killed Showers as the result
a long-standing feud, Showers having
aided in the conviction of Abe Majors,
father of Abe Majors who is sentenced
to hang in Utah for the murder of Of
fcer Brown of Ogden in April last
while resisting arrest. Archie Ma
jors, Abe's brother, was killed by the
posse of which the Ogden officer was a
member, when the latter was killed.
The elder Majors was hanged in Cali
fornia for murder twenty years ago.

pREslpENT RETURNS
Mrs. Mckinley contracted 8 Cold which
Brought on Old MalAdy.

Washington, June 27.-The President
and party returned to Washington
this morning at 1920 o'clock. Mrs
Mckinley looked pale and as if suffer
ing severely. She was assisted from
her carriage to her 10 rs by the
President and DIR. Rixey, being unable
to walk without support. Her physi-
clans state that her condition cannot
be regarded as serious, but that a
severe cold contracted on the trip
brought on a recurrence of the malay
from which she has been a sufferer for
years. Unless Mrs. Mckinley improves
10 the next few days she will be ad-
vised to take a trip to the seashore,
and especially if the weather grows
warmer.
Washington, June 81. 1t is an
nounced that the sudden return OF
President Mckinley is to be attributed
to the illness of Mrs. Mckinley. There
is an impression. however, that the
situation in the Philippines is partly
responsible for his return, and that
Ayers telegram of yesterday suggest
ed TO the executive the ACCESSIBILITY OF
coming at once to consider the grave
questions which have arisen. Alger
denies this, but the timeliness OF the
Presidents arrival makes it undisput-
able that cabinet meeting will be
held directly to consider Otis last dis
patch, as we'll as others the contents
of which have not been made public.

The Enlistment of Volunteers for the Phil

ipPInes to Commence at Once.
Washington, June 29.-As result OF
the conference between the president
and Secretary Alger, it has been de-
cided To begin the enlistment Of volun-
teers for two years for service in the
Philippines.
1t is proposed to arm and equip at
once three brigades or about10, 900 and
continue the work until the whole 3d.
300 men authorized by the law are
secured
There will be no call upon the states.
The regiments will be organized as
United States volunteers Officers will
be appointed by the president and as
signed to regiments without regard to
state lines. The maximum of the regu-
lar army of 65, 900 men has been Sc
cured and now enlistment will be for
the provisional army to make up the
total strength of 100, 900 men. General
Otis has $500 men on the ground or
under orders and volunteers will be
rushed TO him until he has an effective
force of $4,000
In the enlistments of the United
States volunteers, veterans of the late
war, including those who did not get
beyond the home camps, but were sea-
soned, will be given the preference and
the same will be true of the officers.
