W. c. Il. U. MEETING.

A well attended meeting OF the W. q.
4. q. was held yesterday afternoon at
the rooms $50 Free street. The subject OF
the meeting, 1.-THE Improvement OF the
Talents" brought out many helDful
thoughts. Among them wers; A new
period OF time brings to MS new sense OF
responsibility. The world Is taking ac'
count OF stock today and making plans
for the future. We have a great access Of
knowledge over what our fathers had.
We have means of communication with
the whole world. We trade with and
come in daily contact with peo-
pies of whom they know little or moth
ing. All these things are ours for pur-
pose TO build up the Kingdom OF God.
Christian ideas are unwelome now to
many whose interest in trade Ii intense
They want to sell opium to China, liquor
to Africa and the Philippines, and dyna-
mite to the Boxers. 1t viii cost much to
trade as Christ commands us, that is, to
make use of all these new opportunities
to build up the kingdom Of God, In the
world and to overcome opposition at
home
Though the servants have each the
same capital to start with they have vari'
GUS degrees OF success. Perhaps the re-
suits depend upon ability, perhaps on
diligence. But their business has one
end-hr,nging to psrfsnt ion the Kingdom
OF God. These thou gifts were but small
part Of the many that were given at the
meeting.
A letter In the Union signed from the
national superintendent OF work among
soldiers and sailors was read. She asks
that the various unions throughout the
country would make and present TO our
soldiers comfort bags containing all ths
little comforts that one obliged 90 depend
upon himself needs, buttons, needles,
Pins, eourtplaster, etc. The ladies INNS
diately saw the opportunity for improv-
ing their talents and volunteered their
services for this work. In far less time
than 1t takes to tell 1t, orstonns for the
bags, yarn and needles for visitors for the
'.soIdier bcys' were appropriated and
plans were eagerly made for large sup
ply OF material.

New Structure To Go Up
This Summer.
Will Be gin As Soon As Winter
Business Is Over.

Mr.. j. 5. MetcaIf, well known archi-
tect OF Chicago, arrived in this city las.
evening He came by the way of Montreal
and will spend several days here for the
purpos3 of looking over plans for the
mammoth new grain elevator which Is
soon to be cor ssructed In the Grand
Trunk yard. Mr.. Metoalf is the same
gentleman under whoss sSilful direction
the pre- ssnt elevator, one of the best in
the country, YVES built a little over four
years ago. Division Superintendent L.
McGuigan and Superintendent OF Motor
Power and Machinery h. w. MORSE Of
the Grand Trunk staff, have been In the
city this week and in company with these
officials MIR. Metcah viii begin this
morning In looking over the ground pre-
paratory to formulating the plans for the
erection of the new elevator. When the
prt $ nt elevator was built 1t we : Supposed
that 1t would amply answer all purposes
of the road and or the foreign steamship
lines In Portland for a number OF years
But the business of the Grand Trunk has
inorea sad at slnh an enormous rate since
that time that within two yeats after
wards the demands incident to the COM
ing OF new lines became imperative for
the cor ssruction OF another elevator
This new elevator will be much larger
than the present one. General Manager
Reeve who was in Portland few days
ago on business connected with this ex-
tensive enterprise could not state what
the cost of the new structure would be.
MIR. Metcalf said the same last evening In
conversation with reporter OF the
PRESS, explaining that 1t would not be
possible, until making thorough ex.
animation of the conditions, to give any
figures as to the amount to he expended
by the road. MIR. Mstcslf has bsen Sc
CURED rs the engineer for looking over
the ground and wilt today start in on
thu work of driving the test piles SO as to
determine lust what can be done and
Just what will bs done. line building Of
the elevator wilt lie In progress during
the coming summer and fall season and
will be commenced as soon as the winter
business OF the Grand Trunk n In such
shape as to allow OF breaking up the
yard for the necessary arrangements for
this big undertaking.
Architect Aletoan will be Obliged to re-
main In the city several days to perfect
all OF the arrangements. 1t will require
some time before the track arrangements
can tie completed and 1t Will be several
days more before the exact location Of
the new elevator can be determined. All
OF these matters Will have to be well CON-
sidered before the definite plans are
settled. There will of course be large
crews OF men at work on
the new elevator. AS soon as
Architect Metcalf has completed
his / lAns he will submit them to the
officials OF the road for consideration.
The construction of the new elevator VIII
be one of the memorable events in the
business world of Portland and there is
no doubt that the scenes about the Grand
Trunk wharves for several months hard
Iy before the frost is fairly ont of the
ground will be about the busiest in this
part OF the country.
