TWENTIETH CENTURY
Is TO be UShered in by a Monster Religious
Revival.
BY Associated Press.

New York, Dec 24-At a secret COM
mittee meeting held here plans were
perfected to hold monster religious
revival TO usher in the goth century,
this revival to be the fruition of the
plan evolved by the late Dwight L.
Moody which his friends have taken
up, and have enlisted in its support the
most prominent Christian workers in
the country.
1t will be national in scope with New
York as the center. 1t will be absO-
luteiy undenominatiohal in character
and "Christianity and the Bible is the
only Battle Cry" Practically every
branch of the protestant church and all
great religious societies identified with
it are united in the crusade. The
leaders are banded together as natio-
nal central committee and are now oD-
ening their campaign.
The committee includes a majority
of the leading evangelists of Greater
New York, besides many others outside
Of New York.
An appeal has been mailed to all
parts of the United States, which calls
on those to whom it has been sent ''To
Immediately engage in the campaign
for the revival of Christianity in every
city, town and village at the opening
of the goth century" A week of
prayer will formally inaugurate a
movement all over the United States,
but this city will witness the real op-
ening of the campaign.

MILLIONS INVOLVED
In a Suit That Was Won by the Western
Union.
BY Associated Pree-

by Associated Rr6G.
st. Paul. Mimi. Dec. PA suit in
volving several million dollars worth
of valuable telegraph lines along the
route of the Great Northern Railway
from st. Paul to the Pacific coast was
decided in the United States District
Court in favor of the defendant. the
Western Union Telegraph Co.
Its inheritance is not alone the am
cunt of money involved, for it is the
general understanding that should the
Railway Company have won, all the
great railway systems of the country
would have declared void their con-
tracts with the Western Union Tele-
graph Company, and would have
claimed the ownership of the telegraph
lines along their right of way, and
either operated them Independently or
formed a consolidation which would
have been a strong competitor in the
field.
The suit was brought by the Great
Northern against the Western Union
Telegraph Company and the North
western Telegraph Company, whose
lines arc now controlled by the West
ern Union Company.
In 1879 the Northwestern Co. built
a telegraph line along the right OF way
of the plaintiffs road, and in 1882, 1887
miles of line we're constructed. In the
same year the Northwestern sold out
to the Western Union Company. Con-
tracts had been entered into between
the Railway Company and Telegraph
Company in 1879, and again in 1882,
by which among other things the tele-
graph company was to supply wires,
poles, etc and the railway company
furnish transportation and labor for
the construction of the lines; and the
railway company was to furnish oper
ators.
The case turned up on the construc- |
tion of these contracts. The plaintiff !
insisted that the defendant companies
bad no ownership in the telegraph
lines, except the interest as joint own
ers, and asked that the defendant be
Obliged to accept the value thereof and
relinquish the lines to the Great North
ern Company. On the ther hand the
Telegraph Company claimed to have
clear and unmistakable title to the
property in question through the con-
tracts it acquired by reason of its alb.
sorption of the Northwestern Company
The suit has been pending since 1897.

New Use Of Wood Shaving.

A great step forward was taken when
the veneering machine was invented
1t enabled the joiner to convert a log
of fine cabinet wood into fifty or one
hundred sheets with which to cover
cheap lumber The next step was
when BRIGHT Yankee glued these We
neers together so as TO form chair seats
and barrel heads, thereby securing a
maximum strength with a minimum. of
material. Another inventor made still
thinner Veneers and out of these fash
lioned wooden butter plates, baskets
and kitchen ware which is now so
common. The cost is insignificant,
and the convenience so great that the
demand gives employment to thou
sands. AT lhis ?oint the men ceased
making improvements, and the women
took uH the task They found that
these Veneers or shavings could be
woven into basket work and curled and
twisted into all sorts of decorations.
They soon developed an industry which
is now pursued by several hundred peo-
pie in New York, and by many thou
sand in the country.
AN sorts CT wood can be used--in
