OF the block signal telegraph
ers and reducing the number OF signal
towers looks like either retaliation for
the passage of the eight hour law or a
determination OF the company to re-

public. That answer would be natural

 The exterior and interior of many beautiful buildings belonging to the Y. M. c. A were shown on the can vas. He also stated that there are 700 students of the Association who have no buildings of their own. but are to be found in the schools and col Seges. There are many members also in smaller towns who hold ther meet fnss in homes and are organized un- der the name of the County Y. M. C. A. The newest department of the AS sociation is that of the street raii- way which is being organized by NIT. McDill in Los Angeles with the CO., operation of the street railway officers.
 The Association has been such success, wherever established. that II aas become a necessity to the em- Dloyees that they have some place to spend their spare hours where good books. good company and good food may be procured.
 If such an organization could be found among the smaller mining camps. Isolated and deprived of the ordinary opportunities of social and religious culture the benefits derived would be very many.
