THE Experiences of British Phar-

address by Mr. Frank Browne, who
was introduced as the government ana
lyst at HOngkong.
As illustrating the Chinese regard for
filial piety the lecturer told an interest
ing mother-in-law story. A man and
his wife maltreated the husband 8
mother. As punishment the scene of
the act was openly cursed, the active
agents were put to death, and the
mother of the wife was bambooed
branded and exiled for her daughters
crime. The house In which the offend
ers lived was dug up from the founda-
tons. Moreover, the scholars of the
district were precluded from attending
public examinations, and even the
magistrates were deprived of their Of

signed to render the empire flial.-

The one hundredth anniversary of the
installation of John Marshall of Virginia
as chief Justice of the u. S. supreme
court was very extensively celebrated
over our country. In Maine the state
Bar association, at Augusta was adj
dressed by Hon. William l.. Putnam of
Portland. At Bowdoin college Hon.
Charles F. Libby of Portland delivered
an GRAFTON. At Bangor the principal
address was made by Judge Il. A
Emery. In Washington Chief Justice
Fuller made the leading remarks.
The President, his cabinet, the members
OF the Supreme court, the members of
the Senate and House. with the diplo-
matte corps attended as invited guests.
John Marshall was the great defender
of the supremacy of the constitution
when it needed just such a dominating
mind as he possessed. He was a great
man and he had great opportunity to
make his wonderful aud masterfnl
personality felt for good. He believed
in the supremacy of the nation, and in
the supremacy of the constitution over
congress and the executive and stood a
bulwark against the insinuating theories
of state supremacy aud the encroach-
ments of state rights. We ought to be
thankful for John Marshall as well as
a George Washington in those infant
DAYS of our new nation.

An idea of the spreading
growth of the Christian Endeavor
movement which twenty years ago, had
its birth in the Nilliston Church,
Portland, and Friday, saturday and
Sunday celebrates its twentieth anniver-
sary, can be obtained from the messages
of congratulation which were received
from societies in China, Japan, France,
Germany, Spain, England, India, West
Indies, Australia and Hawaii, besides
from the several states and Canada.
The browning event of the convention
was the unwilling of a bronze memorial
tablet, the gift of thousands of societies
the world over, suitably inscribed,
which occurred ON saturday. A large
list of noted speakers were present
and the convention successful one in
every way.
