Tells Of the Christian Endeavor
Convention at Cincinnati.

The Twentieth Century Interna-
tional Christian Endeavor Conven
ton at Cincinnati has just closed.
The impression we get from these
great religious assemblies are deep
aud lasting. We had right royal
welcome. The State of Ohio gave
US welcome through the Secre-
tary of State, as Gov. Nash was
not we'll enough to be present.
President Mckinley sent his gree
tings and welcome to his State,
and Cincinnati gave us a royal
welcome in looking after our well
fare and comfort.
The music of the Convention is
improving and uplifting. The
great gospel singers, Jacobs, Hill
lis and others know how to select
gospel hymns, and then they also
know how to sing them, so that the
congregation can understand the
words, feel the sentiment, as we'll
as appreciate the music. 1t is soul
elevating to hear this sweet gospel
singing.
The speeches :have been magni-
ficent. The best of every denom-
ination and of every nation and
of every color and of every cline
have spoken to us the earnest
words of truth and soberness.
Almost every phase of church
work and christian civilization has
been discussed. The missionary
worf, good citizenship, the temper
ance work, the observance of the
Sabbath, the prayer MEETING
giving and other kindred topics
have been ably discussed. Repre-
