AMERICAN TRACT SOCIETY.
Work Reported at the Annual Meeting
in Washinoton,

III washington.
The annual meeting of the American
Tract Society was held in the Church
Of the Covenant at Washington, March
10th, Justice Brewer presided and
made a brief address setting forth the
general work of the Tract Society
both in the home and foreign field. He
emphasized the necessity of this work
as well as showing that there was nc
other agency so well equipped to fur.
nish Christian literature in the many
language and dialects.
Rev. Judson Swift reported the
years work, and William II. Taft, sec
retary Of war, delivered an address
which gave an account of the progress
in the Philippines, relating particular
ly to education and Christianity.
The secretary of the society said
that eighty-nine new publications heG
been added to the list during the year
These were in English, Polish, Bohe-
mian, German, Hungarian, Spanish.
Swedish and Italian, and the total
number of distinct periodicals added
was 1S0, making the grand total OF
publications issued since the organiza-
ton of the society, including volumes.
tracts and periodicals, 749,3l5,572.
The tract society furnishes all or
nearly all of the Christian literature in
the Spanish language and during the
year has distributed in the American
coluuies upward of 100000 pages and
the total for the year in the Spanish
speaking countries is 5.3l2,0 pages.
Six colporteurs are laboring in Cuba.
The work among the Mormons in
Utah is of intense interest. The dis
tribution Of Christian literature by
colporteur wagons and colporteurs
reaches thousands of homes, placing
wholesale reading in the hands of the
youth.
The society has expended total OF
three-fourths of million dollars in
creating and circulating Christian ver-
naculnr literature at the foreign mis-.
sion stations. The great need Of the
foreign field at the present is large
increase of Christian literature. Many
of the missionaries state that the edu-
cation of the youth at the mission
schools will be largely in vain unless
sufficient amount of Christian and
wholesome literature is provided for
them upon their graduation. This is
particularly true of India and Japan.

Maine Mountain Disappears.

According to a Caribou, Maine, dis,
patch, woodsmen recently brought
news that Bald mountain, a small.
steep hill In the Tiboque valley, only
few miles from the New Brunswick
line, has disappeared. In Its place a
small lake now exists. 1t Is believed
the mountain dropped out OF sight dur
ing the earthquake of March a1st and
that the tremor which then shook New
England really had its birth In the
Maine woods.
Bald mountain was an odd-shaped
cone with extremely steep sides and
was seldom explored. The general be.
Lief is that 1t was the crater OF an
extinct volcano. Around the base of
the mountain small hot springs once
existed and the rock formation in the
neighborhood bears evidence Of vol.
canic origin.

EXECUTIVE SESSION.
Red Cedar shlnsls Association Hold o
MEETING.

Red Cedar shinuls Association Hold /
Meeting,
| AZ an executive session of the Red
Cedar shingle association, which was
held In this city yesterday afternoon
it was decided TO dissolve the organl-
zation. The meeting was executive
and no one outside of the regular
to be present, From an inside source
however, II was afterwards learned
that the general impression prevailed
that the conditions warranted the
radical measure of dlsincorporating
the association.
The action terminating the official
existence of this association win prob
ably not be taken until after the first
Iof the year. when the stockholders win
hold meeting.
The real object to be obtained by
this action Is the organization OF a
new company ON an entirely different
plan from the first. II is desired ia
provide for better control OF the
market steady prices ani 10 Improve
conditions generally for the mill own
ers.
The particular feature OF the new
organization Ia said TO be the object
of cutting adrift from the agents or
dealers interests which heretofore
have been largely influential In the
working In the interests OF the cutters
or min owners, To secure this result
Il IL declared that the executive COM
mlttee has worked diligently, and. for
obvious reasons. the members attend
ing the meeting exhibited great ds-
inclination to speak OF the matter for
publication.
Originally, when the market was be-
coming demoralized. the mill owners
formed the organization 10 protect the
sales and better prices for their goods
For a time this worked out success
fully. but the bad winter In the east
and other conditions brought about n
poor trade there and the mill owners
themselves refused to cut the output
materially. The result was TIM, the
eastern markets became overstocked
and the overplus. or portion OF It.
from the Washington mills was dis.
patched by the association In transit.
The dealers and agents then came In
and II is from this direction. the.
claim liz made. that the existing trou-
hies came

II he has a handbill stuck In the

find a deputy sheriff waiting for him
