the world"
This is the keynote of the pleasure of
the ministerial orators of this country and
of England, who, by their zeal and elo-
quence, are stirring the souls of the
large audiences which attend the sessions
of the international Christian Endeavor
convention and the numerous auxiliary
meetings.
That definite plan for carrying on
the work will be adopted before the con-
vention adjourns is probable.
Nearly 5000 Present.
Complete registered returns of ac-
credited delegates have not yet been com
piled but at the lowest estimate there
are now fully 5000 in the city and the
total number of visitors is not less than
10000.
Two pleasant impromptu features of the
convention have been the presentation by
Chaplain Robert l.. Steele of the United
States navy to President Francis r. Clark
OF small American flag, said to be the
first raised by American troops over
Cavite, and the expression given by Rev.
X. ]. Campbell OF London to the senti-
ment OF unity growing between Great
Britain and the United States.
Attended by Thousands.
At sunrise quiet hour services in five
churches at o'clock this morning were
attended by thousands of delegates. From
$500 to o:3o sessions Of the Christian En-
deavor School Of Methods were held in
eight churches.
At 10 o'clock a conference OF state, dis
trict and local union officers began at Cen
trail Presbyterian church, President Clark
presiding.
Well-considered addresses, containing
many valuable suggestions to Christian En-
deavor workers, were delivered by John 4.
lockwood, Portland, Ore, and others.
simultaneously the convention proper
was in session at the large tent in Camp
Endeavor. Rev. DR.. James l.. Hill Of
Salem. Mass presided.
"Other resources and how to develop
them" was the topic Of the day.
Great Enthusiasm Shown.
A session devoted TO the junior en-
deavorers was hold in Tent Endeavor this
afternoon, Father" Clark presiding
The features were an illustrated ad-

Advocates of Better Life

Prize Fighters and Other
Breakers of the Law
Under Ban.

In order to agitate n stricter enforce
ment of municipal and state laws meet
ing will be held at Mountain View NJ. L.
church tomorrow afternoon for the purpose
of forming a municipal law and order
league which will take an unequivocal posi-
ton in favor Of a stricter law enforcement.
The Epworth league of the church has
been discussing the subject ever since the
pastor, Rev. Mr.. Henry, recently preached
a strong sermon along the lines for better
enforcement OF the laws.
Interest Is Growing.
Interest in the subject increased until it
was decided to hold a mass meeting tomor-
row.
The meeting will be called to order at
$50 p. M. 1t will be open to everybody.
The different evangelical ministers of the
city are expected to be present and join
with laymen generally in discussing the
subjects to be considered
"The general tone Of the meeting will
be to urge stricter enforcement OF GER
tain laws" said one of the men who is
active in the undertaking. 1--WE feel that
at present we have excellent state and

Fighting and Gambling.
"Wll gambling and prize fighting re-
ceive especial attention." he was asked.
"Yes, | believe they will. There is GER
tainly room for work against those evils.
There is no disposition to embark on a SEN
sational campaign, but it certainly does
seem as though there was ground for such
a meeting and hope there vii be a large
attendance on the part Of the public"
Among other subjects that are liable to
be considered will be the reported inva-
sion OF the "red light district.
1t has become a matter Of common no
toriety of late that the city councils rule
against resorts running outside of a certain
district is not being observed.
"Ciear Stores" Operate.
Establishments purporting to be cigar
stores are said to be running in the district
the council said should not be invaded by
women Of i'll repute.
As the story goes the cigar stores are
but blind to deceive the officers.
The meeting may decide on the adoption
of resolutions calling on the council to en-
force its rules relating to the red light
district.
