THE GAVEL WILL, FALL OPENING Ma
TIONAL CONVENTION.
ALLEN CHRISTIAN ENDEAVORS
WILL BE HERE IN FULL FORCE
Five THOUSAND DELEGATES
EXPECTED - EVERYTHING IN
READINESS FOR THE GREAT
MEETING.

On Tuesday, July 2, at two o'clock
in the afternoon the gavel will fall,
calling to order the opening session of
the first National Convention of the
Endeavor Societies of the African
Methodist Episcopal Church, which
will convene in the historic st. John
A. NJ e. Church, corner Cedar street
and Eighth avenue, North, for an
eight-day session. This will be the
first meeting of its kind ever held in
the African Methodist Church Con
nection and great stress is being laid
upon it. The nature of the meeting
md the manner in which it will be
conducted is not a new innovation in
church work, but heretofore the A. M.
E. denomination has affiliated with
the Christian Endeavor Society COM
| posed of all denominations, but they
have realized long since that these
INSTRUMENTATION meetings were
not accomplishing as much for their
own church as was desired, and that
the work among the young people was
suffering for the want of a closer re-
latiOn between the church and the
leaders of the Endeavor work. 1t
was therefore deemed wise to organ
iZe a department in the Church with
a general secretary, whose duty it
would be to devote all of his time to
this special feature. Since this de-
partment has been organized much
good has been accomplished. The
young people throughout the Connec-
ton have taken to the work with
pride and determination thct bids
fair to revolutionize the interest
shown heretofore on their part in
church work. The organization of So
cieties has progressed so rapidly that
it was deemed wise by the secretary
of the department to hold national
convention biennially.
A lengthy program has been pre-
, pared and some of the ablest men and
women of the race will be here and
participate. Every phase of Endeavor
work will be discussed. The pro-
gram as arranged calls for three ses-
sions day and a special Independ-
ence celebration on July the fourth.
st. John A. M. E. Church, the seat of
the convention, is receiving the finish
ing touches, and by the last of this
week will present an inviting appear
ance. The pastor, DR.. Haigler and
his members have done a great work
in preparing for this meeting. They
have worked hard to get ready and
b are now waiting to receive their
' guests. The ladies will conduct a
$ restaurant in tho basement during the
week, where they will serve refresh

]. md baggage room will be in the
vestibule The ladies' reception and
waiting room will be located in the
southwest corner where they can hold
committee meetings and transact 9th

AS SUCCESSFUL EAST
AS IN THE WEST
Coopers Theories Are Being Rapidly Ac
cepted by Eastern People

l.. L. Cooper, whose theory that the
human stomach is the cause of most
Ill health and who created a furorc in
Chicago, st. Louis and other western
cities, is meeting with the same re-
markable success with his medicine
throughout the east. Cooper has con-
Vlnced an immense number of people
that his theory is sound and his
medicine will do what he claims.
Perhaps the most interesting fea-
lures of the discussion this young man
IS causing. are the statements made by
responsible people who have taken his
medicines and have become enthusiasts
tic converts to his beliefs.

At NIGHT SCHOOL.
First Session Monday Evening Calls
Out 116 French Residents.

The first session of the newly or
ganized night school, under the aus
pieces Of the Board of Education. held
Monday evening in vacant store in
the north end of Water street, near
the railroad bridge, was in point of
attendance a great success.
It had been Widely heralded among
the French speaking population of the
North end of the city that night
school was about to be opened and
the interest this announcement caused
was intense. Before the doors We're
opened there was a large crowd gath
cred to attend and when the men in,
charge, from the Board of Education.
threw wide the portals there was a
rush to get Il scat at the tables that
were everywhere in evidence about
the room. All were eager toibegin the
session at once. but the crowd was so
dense that nothing of importance in
the educational line could be accom-
plished- Slips of paper were passed
about and 116 prospective students
registered.
All about the room sat men and
boys. all eagerly discussing the new
school and seemingly thoroughly alive
to the advantages that the members
Of the Board of Education told them
would result
At the start the instructors present
determined to divide the assemblagc
into three groups. tho English speak
ing and writing at the head of the
room and the less proficient in two
other groups further down the place.
But with the crowd present it was
impossible to attempt to give any in
struction in reading, writing and
arithmetic. so it was finally decided
to have a show of hands and see how
many Of the prospective pupils lived on
Cushnoc Heights or vicinity. 1t was
found that IS were residents of that
section and the balance of some 70
could attend very handily at the
present location on Water street. 1t
was decided to have the CuShnoc
Heights pupils meet in ST. John hall
and the rest of the pupils continue to
use the Water street store.
The next session of the school Will
be held Wednesday night in both
places, as above. and good at
tendance is expected.
