nifty years. but also to represent means
used, md the varied character and quail
ity of work done in the principal lines
of activity in the different kinds of ASSOC
Citations.
As II result of the combined labors of
the Boston association, the international
committee and its secretaries during the
past fifty years. 6 1882 branches have been
established with 521.O00 members, among
fifty nations, speaking thirty-five differ
ent languages. Fourteen hundred secre-
taries are employed, two schools for
training officers conducted and $4,000
per year contributed for association work
in foreign lands, where twenty secre-
taries are stationed. A building has been
erected every nine days for the past year
and the total valuation of property eX-
ceeds $S24, OOO,O 1000.
The First Y. NJ. c. a.
The first Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation in the world was organized in
London in 1874, mainly through the in
strumentality of MI. George Williams, a
Christian young man from the country,
who had procured a situation in the large
dry goods house of George Hitchcock Il
Co., located in st. Paul's Church yard,
in which many young men had their
sleeping rooms.
Mr.. Williams had a small room to him
self in this establishment. and, finding
that there was Il great want of religion
among the young men OF this and similar
establishments, he invited IL few Chris
tan young men to meet in his room for
prayer. That was the birthplace in .re-
ality of the Y. NJ. c. A. From this other
meetings grew and other establishments
became interested and finally a confer
ence WAS held which resulted in the or
ganization of the London Young Mems
Christian Association.
The first association organized in North
America was formed in Montreal in No
vcmber. 1851, the first one in the Unit
ed States in December. 1851. The Bos-
: Ton Young Msn's Christian Association
owes its origin to n deep conviction in
the minds OF tle religious community of

Pan . American Exposition Throws
Wide Its Gates to Public.
President Mckinley stopped at Vicks-
burg. pressed an electric button and OPEN
ed the Pan-American Exposition. The
gates of the exposition were thrown open
to the public at $50 o'clock Wednesday
morning. The initial day of the six
months term of the big show was usher
ed i'll amid the banging of hammers, the
shrieking Of saws, the rafting of work
carts and the shouts of workmen. There
was much in the unfinished exposition,
however, to interest the throngs of peo-
pie.
No ceremonies marked the opening of
the gates, it having been decided by the
management to combine the opening day
ceremonies with those of dedication day,
May 90. The change in the date, how
ever, did not cause a moments relaxa-
ton of the emu efforts being put
forth by every one connected with the ex-
position to have everything as nearly
ready as possible. The appearance Of
the buildings and grounds bore ample
evidence Of their efforts.

A MAN ON BUSINESS eENr.

But the Women Grew Impatient While
He Was T~ransacting.
The accepted tradition that it is al
ways the women who are %garrulous
MASTERS of good time was disproyed
the other day, to the sense of one OBJ
server at least.
A transient boarding house keeper
had come up from Plainiield to secure
q cook; he was Il big man, and wore
a gaudy tie and a carefully buttoned
overcoat with Il cotton velvet collar.
In the employment bureau five or six
people We're waiting their turns, but he
had the floor. The man in charge was
little, and spick and span; his teeth
We're set so far apart that he sputtered
through them when he talked.
After every detail had been gone
over the big man said:
"Well. l knew my partner was up
here and made all these arrangements,
but passing-thought I'd take a look.
You say the girl amt here this morn
ing?" he asked for the sixth time.
Eyes, sir"
well, get her out to us by Friday"
"Yes, sir. that's the arrangements"
said the proprietor, pushing forward
a book in which every detail had been
written.
Him, yes, transient boarding house

big man, skimming the page; mo laun-
dry work; can't get one woman to do
cooking and laundrying; plenty of time,
but they amt willin'. Strangely I'M
willin'-these girls"
"As a rule, sir, they amt willin' to
put up with much in the country said
the proprietor, glancing a~nxiously at
the bench where those waiting were
beginning to shuttle their feet.
Country" explained the other,
faint Il question of country; our house
is only a block an a half from the
station. III tell you now Plainfield is
a mighty pretty stylish place."
"Oh. yes, sir; yes, sir; that's right"
sputtered the agent ~distractedly.
The big man meditatively fingered
his tie. "Well," he said, confidential
ly, Il was born there, an l grew up
there; never wen shifted New York
until L was II. Well, l dunno as 1
missed much," he added with a laugh.
Here u tall lady rose and said she
would return later in the day, when tho
agent might be disengaged, says the
New York Commercial. Advertiser. He
tried to call her back, but the big mon
interfered. ;
Women are impatient critters; any
body'd think they had business to at
tend to. Well, you understand, plain
cooking, but substantial. You've prob
ably had occasion to put up at a tran
sient house yourself, and in that case
you know what's wanted. L guess
you've got it pretty we'll set down
there, though"
Yes, sir, 1 understand the require
ments perfectly said the eNasperated

Artificial sponges.

A recent European invention is a
process for making artificial sponges.
The method is based on the action of
zinc chloride on cellulose, by which
spongy compounds similar to starch
are produced. These products, when
placed in water, swell, and, in an at
mosphere sufficiently dry, soon become
har6 again.
