FULL ANNUAL REPORT,
Of the Local Young Mems Christian Esso-
ciation for 1901.

The following is the annual report
in full of President e. c. Laine of the
Young Mems Christian association of
Pine Bluff, as made to the board of
directors, and as read in the various
churches Sunday, and brief synop-
sis of which was printed in the
Graphic Sunday:
There is a popular theory that pros
perity comes to all enterprises and
organizations at intervals of seven
years, its low ebb being reached. of
course. at some time during the in
terim. For the past three or four
years the board Of directors of the
Young Mems Christian association of
Pine Bluff have felt that one of these
septenal visits must be about due at
this place.
Twelve months ago the affairs Of
the association were in such condi-
ton that the board were thoroughly
convinced that this visit was long
past due. and began casting about for
some way to hasten its arrival At
this juncture Mr. G. D. Monk came to
Sur aid. very generously volunteering
his services for as much of his time
as could be spared from his business,
and as we were without a secretary,
his offer was gladly accepted. After
two CT three months under his judi
cious management. the affairs Of the
association seemed to take decided
change for the better. and without
knowing just how or when it came,
we realized that the association was
enjoying at least a small degree of the
prosperity that we had been looking
for SO long.
At this time it became necessary
for Mr.. Monk to devote his entire
time to his business. making it neees-
sary for us to procure the services Of
d permanent general secretary. After
considerable correspondence with the
international committee and other par
tic. was decided TT Nh J. T.
George. of Atlanta, Ga. s5as the man
the association needed, tho call was
extended and accepted. Mr. George
coming to us about March /, t'01, and
taking hold of the work VIII an
earnestncss that spoke we'll for tho
future of the association.
The immediate impetus given the
work, which by the way. has been
maintained to this date. proved that
no mistake had been made in the sc
lection of a general secretary
As an indication of the success of
his work | would respectfully call
your attention to the general physica,
condition of the association as shown
by the following data:

lotal 20 ~
We began the year 1901 with total
Indebtedness of $1,14615. and began
this year with $747.G5. reducing our
Indebtedness during the year $29S.50.
This amount, however, does not
fairly represent our net gain over
previous years. for we have had an
annaul deficit of from $500 to $500 per
year for several years. This year we
Nave overcome this deficit, and have
reduced our old debt S39S50, as
shown above.
Much of the success of the past
year is due to the able work of the
finance committee. under the chair
Manship Of Mr.. Fred Fox. When ii
is remembered that this committee is
composed entirely of business men.
upon whose time are already heavy
demands, their systematic work and
Sarifce of time will be the more
fully appreciated. and to them the
thanks of the association go out in
generous measure.

and disbursements will convey some

as an experiment. not for the purpose

opportunity for mental improvement

James Jeffries, the present champion
heavyweight OF the world. and his gal
laut opponent, Tom Sharkey, in the Gred t
est pugilstic encounter that has ever
taken place, both pursued much the same
course of training, and the first and most
important part of this training was to
get the stomach in condition, and to keep
the digestion absolutely perfect. so that
every muscle and nerve would be at its
highest capabilities.
This was notdone by a secret patent med
icine, but both of these great pugilists
used well known natural digestive tab
let, sold by druggists under name of
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and composed
of the digestive fcrments which every
stomach requires. for healthy digestion.

pepsia Tablets prevent acidity, strengthen

The gallant fighter. Sharkey, says:
"stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets remove ali
discomfort after eating. They rest the
stomach and restore it to heaithful con-
dition l., d heartily ", Eeeonmend them"
The advantage of the daily use of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is that they
keep people well and ward off sickness
and are equally valuable to well persons
as to the dyspeptics. Another advantage

or poisons of any character. but simply.

PUTNEY. Eng, March 22.-Thc Cam
bridge crew to-day fulfilled the expecta-
tons of the prophets and won the hfty-
ninth boat race with Oxford as they
liked. The time was nineteen minutes
and nine seconds. at no time through
out the race did Oxford in the slight
est degree 1Iatter the hopes of the sup
rorters of the Dark Blue. Any chance
which the Oxonians might have had was
shattered by the result of the toss, Civ
ing the Light Blues Cambridge all the
ADVANTAGE of station.
Immense crowds viewed the race.
Inc weather before the start was show
cry. The water was fairly smooth and
a moderate southwest wind blowing.
Cambridge won the toss and chose the
Surrey side of the river. The race was
started at 1915 P. NJ.
The following description of the boat
race was written by Theodore A. Cook.
the we'll known oxford oarSmau:
BY FIVE LENGTHS
Cambridge won the boat race by
over five lengths. For the first time III
the history of the race two Americans
rc.wed in the Oxford crew. but unluckiiy
the brothers Milburne were not iii the
winning boat. The weather was fright
FL, but there was not much wind, which
favored Cambridge. They both got q very
good start and Cambridge put in IS
Strokes to Oxfords 81 in the first minute.
st the end of that period Cambridge be-
gan to establish a lead which was never
lost At the Crab Tree Cambridge was
a length ahead, and the mile was done III
minutes and 40 seconds in a fearful
storm of rain.
But Cambridge made the gap two
lengths of open water under Hammer
smith Bridge, which was passed in min
utes and q seconds. oxford being mole
tEan ten seconds be>ind. This advantage
tho Light Blues retained for some time.
but after passing Chiswick Eyot. Oxford
made q magnificent. squirt. in which the
power and swing OF J. c.. NIilburn and
Long were especially remarked by every
spectator. The result was seen, for the
Dark Blues oars went slowly UP and
wiped a length OF the lead. but they
could do no more.
BOAT HEAVY.
Chiswick Church was passed In IL min
utes and 50 seconds by the leaders. who
kept very lively, and at the beginning
OF Dukes Meadows. FIuntley called on
MS men for the effort of their lives. They
must catch Cambridge now or never. The
Americans and English heaved to their
work with desperate energy. but their
boat would not respond Whether she
was over-straineG, or her lines were en-
treiy a mistake. most good judges
think. she certainly did no credit to Dr.
Warren wlleii the pace was most wanted.
Nothing seemed to close up that great
gap, and before Barnes Bridge was
reached. in 10 minutes and So seconds.
Cambridge, rowing with immense vigor
and dash. crossed to the better water on
the Iiddlesex shore. 4 long way ahead
of her cOuraSeOu rivals.
