China's great Christian Endeavor
convention Of 1909 met in Marking.
and the large mat tent erected for the
meeting proved inadequate. SO admis
sion was by ticket or badge only.
Many OF the Marking people had to be
turned away. but at the close of the
convention series of revival meet
ings opened in the tent. and to these
all were invited. The structure itself
was said to be most suitably and beau
tifully decorated with Christian En-
deavor banners and flags OF all ma
tons. The gathering proved that
Christian Endeavor is meeting q long
felt need in China. the training Of lead
ers. The older missionaries say it has
surpassed their greatest expectations
and are delighted TO see the Chinese
men aud women ereditabiy taking the
lead in these large meetings. Chinese
women have never before spoken in
any but women's meetings. The ear
nestness and intensity Of purpose
which characterized these meetings
was said to be wonderful.-Ohio En-

Formation and Appearance Of This Odd

The Giants causeway is situated at
the northern extremity of County An
trim, short distance from Port Rush,
Ireland. 1t consists Of countless hosts
of basaltic pillars. varying in shape
from pentagon to an octagon. the av-
erage length of each column or pillar
being about eighty feet. the whole
stacked SO closely together that knife
blade could hardly be inserted between
them. But the formation Of these pill.
lars is not the least wonderful part
about them. for. although they may be
counted by thousands and tens Of
thousands. each column Is fashioned
with a symmetry that suggests a ma
sons handiwork. Their composition is
a perfect fusion Of one-half finty
earth. one-quarter lime and clay. one
quarter almost pure iron. each pillar
being divided into regular lengths or
joints which come together as per-
feet natural ball and socket union.

Of three projections or tongues known

at least 10000 strong marshaled on

Spotted SaIamander Appar-
emily Couldn't Stand the
Indiana Climate.
WAS DEADLY POISONOUS
IT Is CLAIMED THAT THE REP.
TILE Is MORE DANGEROUS
THAN THE RATTLE SNAKE AND
ITS BITE Is CERTAIN DEATH.

The spotted salamander which was
captured south of the city last Tuesday
and placed in Glen Miller zoo by man
named Smith, died Thursday. The
reptile has been given to the Earlham
sollege authorities who wished to place
It in the museum, as such specimens
are very rare.
Undoubtedly, the attendants Of the
zoo heaved sigh of relief when the
animal died, for 1t was deadly poison
Gus. 1t is said that the bite of spot
ted salamander would cause death
within twenty-four hours and there is
no known cure 1t is feared more in
parts of the country which it frequents,
than are the rattle snakes.
The captpr of the animal probably
was unaware of it's power. 1t was
captured with little difficulty and did
not show much fight. Superintendent
Hollern did not learn the captor's
name, but he understood that it was
found near Elkhorn. The reptile was
turned over to a man named Smith,
who had even less use for it than the
captor. What caused it's death after
being placed in captivity is not known.
1t is said that this specimen is the Sec
Ond that has ever been captured in
this state. Few to whom the animal
was exhibited were familiar with it.
1t resembles a lizard somewhat, but
even more closely water dog. The
reptile was about one foot long.

A SHARP CONTEST
Is in Prospect When the House
Tackles Postal Savings
Bill on Monday.
LONG SESSION EXPECTED
(American News Service)

(American News Service)
Washington, D. c., March 26.-The
House Committee on Postoffices and
Postroads will begin consideration of
the postal savings bank bill next Mon
day. A sharp contest is in prospect.
Chairman Weeks says the committee
will prepare the measure which he
hopes will be ready for the House by
the first week in April.
1t is believed by some congressman
that Congress will be ready to adjourn
within the next ten weeks, but look
at the House calendar and review of
committee work makes it clear that
this is not probable, if the President
insists on carrying out his legislative
progress: Speaker Cannon said today
that he did not look for adjournment
much before June Is.
