A drowning accident was narrowly
averted at Johnston's Point yesterday
and If it had not been for the timely
assistance of some friends, illumlna-
ton day would have had one sad feat
ure.
Charles Byron is one of a party of
nine New Haven young men camping
at Johnston's Point. Yesterday Will
liam Pollard was paying a visit to the
party, and, with several others, went in
bathing. Unfortunately he mlsjudged
the distance he could cover in the wa
ter and soon gave evidence of giving
out several yards from the shore, He
called for assistance, and young Byron
and Allabee both went to his rescue
Allabee was unable to get sufficiently
near to prevent him from sinking, when
byron very unfortunately got in such
a position that the drowning youth Sc
cured hold on him which utterly in
capacitated him from saving himself,
Both then went down. and while be-
meath the surface Pollard relaxed his
hold. 1t was then that Byron succeed
ed in arriving at the surface first, and
although nearly exhausted, completed
his task of getting Pollard, who was in
a drowning condition, safely to the
shore.
So exhausted were both that they re-
quired assistance to reach the camp.
The party comprises Frederick Cooley

Chinese government entrusted to Min
lister WI on the night of the 8th 1t
has assurances from the other powers
that they have not advised their repre-
sentatives to accept Chinese escort from
Pekin.
1t was officially stated at the close of
the day that no further representations
nave been made to the Chinese govern
ment since the Adee note of the 8th
and that none will be made until the
Chinese government has given some in
dication of the attitude it will assume
in complying with or denying the de-
mands of the United States
While the state department is contin-
uing to dispatch messages to Minister
Conger upon the assurances of the Chi
nese government that communication is
uninterrupted, it is doing so with COM
paratively small hope of their delivery.
This assertion was borne out tonight
when Secretary Root said that there
was no convincing evidence in possess
sion Of this government that any of
our dispatches really had reached Min
lister COnger. This indicates that the
minister has not given a direct and sat
isfactory reply to any of the queries
that have been addressed him by the
department of state.
No additional dispatches were receiv-
ed to-day bearing on the military situa-
ton, either from General Chsffee or Ad-
miral Remey and the last information

educational aGvan tages to be obtained
from the association at its various
branches are many, and besides lee
lures and libraries may be mentioned
debating societies, language classes.
chess clubs, restaurants. gymnasia
and all sorts of athletic clubs.
Some idea of the vastness of the
following figures, which are taken
from the last annual report. In Great
and Greater Britain there are 1864
centers and 1.5s5 auxiliary associa-
tions. with something like 13O,O 900
members. while in foreign countries
(not British possessions there are
over 5000 centers. and nearly as many
auxiliary associations. with a mem
bership of close on half million; nor
must one forget that had it not been
for the Young Mems Christian asso-
citation that excellent sister society,
the Young Women's Christian asso-
citation, would probably never have
come into existence.

citation, like its prototype in Eng
land, has for its main ooject the i'm

Evolution of the Young Mems

SIR George Williams, Founder of the
Society. Talks About Its Social,
Educational and Spiritual
Advantages

Writing of the evolution of the y.
NJ. c. A., Sir George Williams, its
founder, says in the Chicago Tribune
that the association began in Il small
way in fact. with only II men: that
was Sc years ago. now it is repre-
scented by more than half a million
members. divided into some 1000 diff
ferent centers, scattered all over the
world. These are organized into ma
lional unions. and these again into
one comprehensive international
union. Its inception may be said to
date from June 6. 1914. when some of
my fellow workers met together at
the close of one of our weekly prayer
meetings to consider the Importance
and practicability of establishing a
society for improving the spiritual
the drapery and other trades. Our
first headquarters consisted of small
room in a coffeehouSe. for which we
paid half crown a week rent. Soon,
when this accommodation was found
too small for the increasing number
of MEMBERS we removed to Iadley' 5
| hotel. ackfriars. where we had the
use of a good room. Two years after
its foundation branch associations
were established in Piccadilly. lsling-
ton. Pimlico, Sout hwark and White

we were Obliged to make another
move. this time to rooms in Gresham
