San Francisco, July 2o.-A spirit Of
animation and enthusiasm marked the
work of the third day of the internation-
Epworth League convention. The dele
gates had been admonished at the close
of yesterdays meeting by Rev. DIR.
Berry. general secretary of the league,
that there had been too much s,ghtsee-
ing. all should get to work and pump
salvation into these people.
This injunction was obeyed. The vis-
itors forsook the allurements of sight
seeing and today devoted attention
Strictly to business Everything went
with vim that has been lacking at
some previous sessions. Again did sun
rise praymeetings. With which the day
lopened, draw crowded houses at every
one Of the four principal Methodist
places of worship. From that early hour
on tilruout the morning. every path
seemed TO lead the crowds to the pavil-
ion, Alhambra theater. Metropolitan
| Temple, Central and Howard street
Ichurches. The O'Clock opening song
service at each of these assembling
places saw greater audiences than had
before joined in the first hymn of the
day. The long program of speeches was
gone thru with considerable promptness,
all being listened TO with the deepest
Interest and applauded with hearty en-
| thusiasm
