City mission, New Dreams, La, like all others in our large cities, is To- cated in a densely populated district of that city, in a factory neighbor- hood, and amid old shacks and delap- dated buildings. Often several faml- lies occupy one house. They are very poor, live scantily, breathe inn pure atmosphere all the time; know but little of sanitary laws, not much more of social propriety and are de- bauched by sin of every conceivable sort. It is among these people that the faithful city missionary, Mrs. Meekin, labors day by day. She re- ports the work very prosperous, and that many are finding Christ, among whom are seven boys and girls from her Sunday school. The marked change in the lives and conduct of these people is substantial evidence of the thoroughness of the work ac- complished. Mrs. Meekin says this has been a hard, difficult field and now her heart rejoices as the mist begins to clear away, and brighter day begins to dawn.

of the former president of the Chi

The lot upon which the house
stands has a frontage of so feet and
a depth of 172 feet. As the build

insurance companies, according TO in
formation current yesterday in well

a loan OF a large amount in Paris to
permit them to provide for their San

thought yesterday, 10 further large
imports of gold.

were seeking the loan. although ac-
credited last night by officers of sew
eral of the larger New York fire in
surance organizations, who said there
was no truth in the report so far as
their companies were concerned. II
was pointed out however. that the
loan probably was being arranged in
the interest of some of the smaller
New York companies and also by
some larger companies whose home
Offices are in other States
The loan was said 10 amount TO
s25,0o0.0oo or more. the rate 40 be at
four per cent, and the loan to run a
year The principal significance at
tached TO the matter was that the
New York money market would be
relieved of the necessity of providing
the funds needed TO pay off the losses
