to their belief that the nominations
OF c. w. Watson and W. Z. Chiffon
to the United States senate were Sc

dilution OF noble blood with plebian

will mean the c%heapening OF titles so

CHRISTIAN ENDEAvoR AT At
=. LANIIc CITY

The Christian Endeavor societies
have finished celebrating a silver an.
niversary at their 25th annual conyen.
lion at Atlantic City.
When a youthful pastor in Portland
Ne. feeling that the succulent oyster
and the seductive ice cream festival
did not fully meet the needs OF his
young people. started the first society
In 1881, the newspapers never found
1t out for months. But recently when
the convention was held at San Fran.
cisco. $4,000 people crossed the noun.
tains to be there. And now there are
s.676.045 members.
Many people have the
society 10 that bumptious young man
who hung out a sign reading John
Smith and Father" But in view OF
the fact that they provide 200. 900
members a e a for the churches. the
youngster is clearly entitled TO a posi-.
ton of prominence on the firms an.
n~ouncements.
or course, any organization OF young
people has its crudities and lacks in
tact. They tell Of one junior society
that was accustomed TO place on the
minister's table a bouquet and text or
Scripture every Sunday morning, Sc
lecting the Scripture at random. One
day they put up to him this verse.
"le are OF your father the devil.
which came near creating a church
row.
One great reason for the attractive
ness OF the society has been the aD-
sence OF denominationalism. and the
slight emphasis on sectarian creeds
The younger element has no sympa-
thy with theological tweedledees
handed down from the fathers. and
has liked an organization where these
things were rated at their true value.
Many of the societies made the mis-
take OF too much emphasis on the
prayer meeting. Ii seemed as il they
spent so much time praying and talk.
ing about doing good. that they had
no time left for actually doing any
thing.
The later spirit OF the society
rightly places a heavier value on
actual work for temperance. good
government. social efforts for slums
and neglected neighborhoods. and
visitation Of the sick and sorrowful.

THE MAINE.

What destroyed the Maine?
II seem probable that this question
Is likely TO be still unanswered long
after the Maine has been removed
from the Havana harbor. Enough OF
the wreck has been to
furnish a view OF the damage done.
but no conclusive evidence of the
original cause OF the disaster has been
obtained. In fact the destruction OF
the forward part of the vessel is so
complete that evidence Of n kind
seems hard to get. In the thirteen
years that have passed since the
Maine vas destroyed angry passions
have gone. and men are able to take
a calm view OF the Spanish war and
its causes. Regardless OF the Names
disaster the war would have occurred.
Spain had TO be driven from Cuba and
nothing less than a great war could
do that. That is done. Cuba is free.
An independent republic has been es.
tablished. Peace has been restored
Whether the Maine was destroyed
from the outside or the inside is now
only a speculative question.
