ENDEAVOR CONVENTION.

The opening meeting OF the an
nual convention of the Tracy dis
trict Y. P. S. G. E. Union was held
at the Presbyterian church last Fri
day evening. Preparations had
been made for nearly 100 visitors
from abroad, but owing to Satur-
days storm and other causes, the
attendance from neighboring towns
was not large, until Sunday, when
Delhi and Morgan Endeavorers
turned out in considerable numbers,
aud tested the seating capacity of
the church.
The decoration of the church con-
sisted mainly Of a profuse display
of ferns, the corner to the left of the
pulpit having beautiful pyramid
of these graceful plants, while the
organ and pulpit were also fanked
by displays of large specimens of
the same
The program previously outlined
in these columns was generally fol-
lowed. After the devotional exer-
cises Friday evening, President
Badger of Tracy introduced the
local speakers who welcomed the
delegates. Messrs. Dornberg, John

cordial relations were established
at the outset by these little speech
es and the responses which followed,

THE 8. & M. PUSH.

The surveyors on the Gulf q
Manitoba railroad have run three
lines out of the Beaver Greek val
ley to the Milwaukee railroad. One
line runs to Bird Island, a second
line runs between Bird Island and
Olivia, a third touches Olivia and a
fourth is still west Of Olivia, and
The GAZETTE has it from an official
source that the line west Of Olivia
has been found to be the most ac-
ceptable by the surveying corps.
The company officials have been
agreeably surprised over the pro-
files OF the line up Beaver creek
valley, the expense of grading and
constructing being but very little
more than line on the prairie.
Last weeks Olivia Press contains
the following regarding the road:
During the past few days several of
the promoters and engineer OF the
G.. & NJ. railroad have been in this
vicinity looking over the proposed
route, and interviewing several OF
the people regarding the ,construc-
ton of the road. The officials claim
that as soon as the route is decided
upon and the engineering complet-
ed, work of grading will be COM
menced and pushed rapidly to COM
pletion. Their objective now is
Duluth instead of Willmar as they
proposed last year when the project
was first started.
It is claimed by officials that just
as soon as the surveyors complete
the lines through to the Milwaukee,
which completion means the taking
of levels, distances, ETC., they will
be placed on this side Of the Mime
sofa river with the view of finding
some suitable route up the hills on
this side. It is admitted that the
proposition is tough one, but the
engineers are certain that feasible
route can be found.
There ara inst ten moro DAYS tn
elapse between the time of COM
pleting the tracking of the line into
Beaver Falls and getting the bonds
of that township, the proposition
making them null and void unless
the line be completed on July 1st
The officials say that this will be
done and claim that the rails and
bridge material was shipped several
days ago.

Appropriate resolutions were
adopted at the close of the conven-
tion, thanking the local society and
citizens of Redwood Falls for their
efforts and interest. Madison So

Saturday evening the address OF
Miss Holbrook was followed by an
informal and social reception.
Sunday morning the Presbyter-
ism church was packed to hear the
inspiring sermon of Rev. R. L. Bar
ackman, his subject being "Fish-
ers of Men," The music for the oc-
casion was very fine
Sunday afternoon was given to
Junior work, and the evening to
the,farewell sermon of Rev. Chas.
H. Curtis of Minneapolis. The NJ.
E. church was rendered to the con-
vention for the final service, aud it
proved none too large for the throng,
which filed it closely.

Kill, without Hitting.


What is lyJdite? The high explosive
thus called from the name Of the small
Kentish town and gunnery center
where the experiments with it We're
made is nothing less than picric acid
brought into dense state by fusion
Picric acid is bright yellow sub
stance freely used in peaceful indus
tries for dyeing purposes. 1t is oh
tanned by the action of nitric acid on
phenol or carbolic acid. 1t burns very
violently, and, owing to the tremen-
dous blast produced by the explosion,
the destructive effect of a bursting
shell filed with it is some II times
greater than that of a shell filed with
powder.
All lyddite shells are equipped with
percussion nose fuses only; hence their
explosion takes place on impact in the
following fashion: The percussion fuse
ignites a picric powder exploder, which
in turn ignites the bursting charge of
lyddite, the defamation of the fuse and
of the two explosives inside the shell
being instantaneous. The picric pow
der exploder. we should add, is insert
ed in a recess left in the lyddite for
that purpose. Lyddite shell is to some
extent less barbarous than shrapnel
exploded by powder, for. though wide
spread, it's death dealing effects are
due more to air conclusion than to the
wounding effects of the flying frag-
ments. In other words. in the case OF
a lyddite shell bursting in group Of
men, the greater number will be killed
. not by pieces Of the she'll, but by the
blow of the suddenly compressed air.
