ENDEAVORERS GOING ABROAD.
Plan for Their Trip to London Dur
ing the Summer.

Many of the Christian Endeavorers of
Savannah are already making preparations
to attend The annual state convention Of
the society in Atlanta in April. Rev. Ar
thur j. Smith, pastor of the First Pres
byterian Church, who expects to attend
has been notified by a large number Of
| the Savannah Endeavorers of a similar
intention on their part, and he thinks that
the Savannah contingent this year will be
larger than ever before
| A large number of Endeavorers are also
interested in the 1900 convention
that meets in London during July,
and particularly so, as the Trans
portation Committee of the So

"A motor carriage has recently been in
troduced in France which combines many
novel features. 1t is normally propelled
solely by an oil engine, but on billy ground
is helped by an electric motor. The oil
engine works at constant speed. and when
the vehicle does not absorb all the engine
power. the excess drives the motor as a
dynamo and charges the accumulators-
Then The accumulators are only used oc-
casionally and they are kept fully charged.
The engine is directly connected TO the
dynamo motor. which IS shunt-wound, aud
this is in turn used to start up the engine.
The changes in speed are effected me-
chanically.

Indian Scouting

AN artillery officer of our army"
said Representative Cooper to a group
of listeners about him. recorded by the

me the other day on the failure of the
British in South Africa to send out
scouting parties In advance Of their
troops. He regards that as responsible
for some Of the disastrous skirmishes
.gainst the Beers.
II was interested" added Mr. Coopei
''in his statement to me that our Amer
lean armies could never have been
caught so easily in Boer traps. 1t seems
that our commanding officers follow
practically the same plans for scouting
that the Indians have taught them. The
Indians, he tells me, when marching in
hostile country, first send one warrior,
sometimes on horseback. occasionally
On foot. far ahead. Some distance be-
hind him are two or three Indians, and
still farther behind a larger body, and
so on. He regards this method of scout
ing as the finest in the world"
Chairman Cooper then described in
vivid fashion the way Indians observe
the presence Of the enemy. The out
stretched palm. elevated over the eyes.
without any glance backward, is the
signal Of danger. which the Indians In
The rear are quick to observe and pass
