How Chn.nber1ain Met Miss Endicott.
When Joseph Chamberlain came over
to the United States, one of the objects
of his visit was to find out what kind
of girl Miss Mary Endicott, his pres
ent wife, was. His son, Austin Cham
berlain, had met her in Europe, fell
very much in love with her and asked
his fathers consent to address her.
The old gentleman was somewhat cha
ry Of American wives for English gen.
tlemen. ..
Before giving his consent he conclud-
ed to meet the lady in person and in
vestigate herself and family. A night
or two after his arrival in this country
there was a ball at the British en-
bassy.
NIr. Endicott, then Mr.. Cleveland's s
secretary of war, and his daughter
We're among the guests. Mr.. Chamber
lain particularly noticed a stately and
beautiful girl whose unaffected dignity
greatly pleased him. He asked to be
presented. To his surprise and gratifi.
cation he was introduced to Miss En-
dicott. During the entire evening he
paid her assiduous attention. The next
day he called at her fathers residence
He soon became satisfied as to the so
cial status Of the Endicotts. He finally
succumbed to the charm of the fai1
girl and instead Of sanctioning Aus
tins suit addressed her himself anC
presented handsome young stepmoth

berlain accepted the inevitable and is
said to be respectfully devoted to his

The Afternoon Session.

After the devotional exercises were
held Rev. Geo. T.. Brown, of Oacoma,
spoke on 'The Mid-Week Service" )"
and he was followed by Rev. Geo.
Lindsay Of Chamberlain, who gave a
very interesting review Of 1.-The foun-
dations Of Belief" book written by
Hon. A. J. Balfour. One hour in
the afternoon was devoted to the
Missionary work of the ladies, and
it was a profitable one to them.
"tDoes Our Age know Jesus Christi"
was the subject opened for discussion
by Rev. J. A. Derome, of Plankin-
ton. 1t was well presented and
thoroughly discussed. Rev. Walter

Robert Blossoms First Success.

At Dayton. O., there is a soldiers
home, with a small theater attached
to it. There during the summer young
actors not yet admitted to regular pro-
fessional standing and possessed of
more ambition than training gain expe-
rience for themselves and give amuse-
ment to the veterans by playing little
one act plays. doing individual acts of
various kinds and experimenting with
all classes of roles. from feeble fathers
to vigorous clog dancers. Years ago a
certain young man, Robert Edeson,
spent a summer vacation acting in
Dayton and aroused such vociferous
enthusiasm by his work on the little
stage that large notice was posted
on one side of the drop curtain, "Mem-
bers of the audience with wooden legs
must not applaud by stamping on the
floor" But the veterans managed to
obey orders and still keep up their
applause. They crossed their acquired
manufactured legs over their original
natural ones and then whacked the
wooden ones with their canes. And
that was Robert Blossoms first sue
cess.-Lesie's Monthly.

MATERIAL ON THE WAY
Material for the University Building
is on the Way-Has Delayed
the Building.

President Graham, Of the Uniyer-
sity, is hopeful that work will be re-
sumed on Century Memorial Hall in a
very short time. He has been wait
ing with all the patience possible for
the arrival of the iron that goes into
the structure. A point in the build
ing operations had been reached
where no more progress could be
made until the iron arrived.
The president reports the arrival
of a carload Of trimming rock, and
has received the information from
the contractors that a car Of struct-
ural iron and one of mill work was
on the way, and they are expected to
arrive this week. The iron was due
nearly two months ago and consider
able time has been lost in waiting its
arrival. 1t is expected to resume
work on the building just as soon
as the material arrives.

A Sioux City Authority Declares That
the Northwestern Will Not
Seriously Oppose Removal.

oSi ipuSly OppSSS AtSLIO
An interesting dispatch from Sioux
City, concerning the capital removal
bill. was found in the Minneapolis
Journal of yesterday. 1t reads as
follows:
It may be stated with much
authority that the Chicago s. North
Western road will not seriously oppose
the removal Of the South Dakota
capital from Pierre. While the North
Western may prefer having the capt.
tai at Huron, that road will not make
much Of fight if the legislature
seems to prefer Mitchell.
"You will find the North Western
won't do much to oppose the plan to
take the capital from Pierre,' said a
high official OF the North Western
here. 'There is nothing in the cap
ital business anyway. All the people
that go to Pierre ride on passes, and
in the winter it costs a great deal of
money to keep that line open.'
People who have gone to Pierre
during the legislature session when
there has been lots of snow during
the winter will appreciate how the
Northwestern feels about trying to
keep the road open for any great
length of time. Whether the author
ity quoted can be relied on or not
is question, for heretofore the road
has taken very prominent part in
capital removal matters. Mitchell,
however, is on the Northwestern
system and perhaps this accounts for
the Indifference.

The Morning Session.

G. f. DETROIT, of Letcher, gave a
profitable paper on "The Press as a
Factor in Religious Work." Rev. S.
+. Huntley opened the discussion on
GLOW can we make the moral element

a few OF ministers took part in the
subject under consideration.

The Ways of the Turk.

Baedeker's is generally regarded as a
harmless book Not so in Turkey, as q
German traveller has learned to his
grief. They found in his trunk a
guide through Turkey and confscated
it. The next morning the Baedeker
was returned to the German. but with
more than a hundred pages, containing
description of Constantinople, torn
out. The traveller went to the censor's
Office to complain Of this ineXplicabIe
treatment of his book. But the censor
explained to him with irresistible logic
that an accurate description Of Con-
stantinople could not be suffered, since
a knowledge of the locality was cal
culated to facilitate an attempt on the
sultan's life.
