St. Johns, N. F., January 7.-Information from official quarters indicate that the deadlock respecting the French shore modus yivendi is stiH unbroken.

 No answer has yet been returned. It Is taken for granted that Lord Salisbury is discussing the question with the French government.

of rivalry is being displayed
The bicycle race will be mile and a
quarter affair for purse of $50, to be
divided among the riders, leading at

! track yesterday and nothing worthy of
| note was accomplished

/ day in the $50 class event; McManus
drove this horse in his last race.
W. w. Woods is a probable starter in
the gentlemen's driving race today; he
has not been seen on the track for an

last years free-for-all, has arrived at the

The revenue officials have brought
down from the Mare Island navy
yard on a government tug 154
cases of rare Oriental goods which
has been smuggled into this country
on the hospital ship Solace. The
articles seized would net small
fortune. The duty is nearly 60
per cent of the value of the goods,
and, on this account, most of the
stuff, which includes loot from
Tien Tsen, will probably be aband-
oned to the government. The

appointed If by 1901 the northern Sec
ton of the Methodist church, which ex-
tends to the Pacific ocean, has not en-
rolled 100000 Of the 100000 converts
we expect to have by Jan. 1, 1902. The
membership Of this section is now
3,5OO,00O.
1.-The time has arrived when the
Methodist church must bestir itself. 1t
is doing grand work, but must do bet
ter. We shall begin by enlisting all the
pastors of all the churches, and they
will exhort their congregations to fur
nish volunteers to bring in converts.
I'VE think most of the converts will
be among younger people, and with
this end in view the Sunday schools
will be asked to exert all their influ-
ences to increase attendance. Then we
shall work through the Epworth and
other leagues. Next, every stranger
who comes to Methodist church will
be asked to join it permanently. After
these methods are exhausted we shall
send volunteer workers among people
who have never been or at least are not
at present members of any church.
''All of the IS districts of the north
ern church are fully organized now for
this work. Each has its representa-
tives, and our chairman is Bishop
James M. Thoburn. The bishop is in
tensely enthusiastic over the move
ment. The idea of this movement orig
mated with him, and he deserves all
the credit for starting it and complet-
ing plans for carrying it out.
There are a great many Methodists
who seem to have lost their interest in
their churches. In contrast to these
members there are many thousands
who have announced themselves as
eager to support the movement All
they wanted was a leader, and this
captain has appeared in Bishop Tho
burn. There is strong need of cooper
alton in this work of getting converts.
strangers have attended a church
and found their reception chilly and in
different. We shall change all that
Finding that he is not welcomed as he
feels he ought to be, this stranger is
apt not to go to church again, and thus
possible convert is lost. Our cardinal
principle will be to extend the hand of
welcome to these strangers and to get
as many Of them as possible into our
churches"
