Annual ftepert.
The eleventh anniversary of the Yeung
Men's Christian association of this city
took place in the court house last evening,
a goodly number of the friends of the
cause being present. The pregramme was
as fellows :
Singinji "All Hail the Power of Jesus'
name" by the audience.
Reading of a portion of the prophecy of
Isaiah, and prayer, by Rev. J. C. Hume, of
the Presbyterian mission chapel.
Seprano sole "Reek of Ages" -by Miss
Bear, with organ accompaniment by Prof.
P. W. Haas. This fine piece was sung
exquisitely and was undoubtedly the gem
of the evening.
President D. C. Haverstick read the fol
lowing annual report :
Ladi and Qerdlem.cn, member and friends of
the Yeung Men' Christian Association :
The events of another year in the his
tory of the Yeung Men's Christian asso
ciation arc written among the tbings of
the past and te-night, under the guidance
of a kind and merciful Providence, we arc
assembled for the purpose of celebrating
the eleventh anniversary of the founding
of this institution, and the president, as
has been customary in the past, offers
this, his aunnai report of the operations
of the association for the past year.
In preparing this report our aim has
been te be brief. Still, we felt the neces
sity of making it sufficiently full te give
the citizens an opportunity of learning
what uses have been made 01 their contri
butions, and what clferts we are making
in behalf of the public geed, and whether
the facilities we offer for the benefit of our
young men are of sufficient importance te
justify the maintenance of an institution
of this hind. Of the advantages of our
free reading rooms and library it is need
less for us te speak ; their importance te
the community must be recognized by all
right-thiuking men and women. Yet the
public at large have only a faint idea of
the struggles and disappointments under
which the fricn Is of this organization have
labored during the elc. en years of ils ex
istence. There have been times when sonic of us
were almost ready te abandon the ship,
the pilot being unable te see a single ray
of light by which te steer the vessel
through the apparently unpromising
future. Hut, remembering the scriptural
injunction, ' Xet te be weary in well well
eoing : for in due season we shall reap, if
we faint net," we have struggled en,
hoping and praying for a butter and
brighter day.
That the association, with its epan
doers, comfortable rooms, free access te a
large collection of books from the most
noted authors, as well as the popular
daily and weekly papers and magazines,
is doing a geed work, no one seems te
iiueMicn. And that the only resort of the
kind offered in a city of twenty-live
thousand inhabitai.ts should be compelled
te go bugging, as it were, for support, is
one of the mysteries our mind fails te
comprehend. Teut such has been the
case, however, the friends of the associa
tion must admit, reluctant as they may be
te de se. True, we have had many
friends who have steed by us in our dark
est hours, and we take occasion just here
te thank them for their valuable assist
ance. Hut we need mere of them. We
ought te have at least $1,909 en the first of
April. Seme of the friends of the associa
tion have been contemplating the organi
zation of a movement looking toward the
raising of the entire amount of indebted
ness. If this could be accomplished the
current expenses of the association could
be met by the income from membership
dues, subscriptions te library and volun
tary donations.
Many of our citizens seem te be under
the impression that most of the expenses
of the association are incurred in carrying
en a work that properly belongs te the
churches. This is a mistake. The reli
gious work of the association does net cost
the citizens fitly dollars a year. The ex
pense is almost entirely occasioned in pro
viding a suitable building and maintaining
the free reading-room and library already
referred te. In doing this, economy, with
a due regard te efficiency, has been our
first thought. The librarian has been se
emed at as low a compensation as possi
ble for the amount of labor and time re
quired of him at the rooms. The interest
en the mortgage of the building at 5 per
cent., dedncting therefrem the rents re
ceived from parts of the building net re
quired for association purposes, amounts
te less than we could possibly rent a room
suitable for the reading rooms and library.
The ether items of expense are for heat
iug and lighting the rooms, and for books,
papers and magazines.
This is the branch of the work for which
wc ask the aid of our fellow citizeus. Its
efficiency might be greatly increased by
the addition of new books and an increase
in the number of papers and magazines.
Under the present state of ear finances
this has been impossible, as the current
expenses must be met, for which our in
come from membership, dues and sub
scriptions, are net sufficient.
The year just closed has been marked
with some important changes in the work
of the association. Mr. S. 11. Herr, our
efficient general secretary for the pat
three years, received a call from the Read
ing association, which he was induced te
accept, and hence severed his connection
with us. On account of the urgent neces
sity of economy in all branches of the
. work, the beard of r.iaingcrs decided net
te employ a genet. 1 cu 'tar, but te se
cure the services of a competent person as
librarian only. At a meeting of the beard
en November 1, 1880, Mr. Barten F. Hen Hen
dereon was chosen te iiil that position, the
duties of which he has perl'ornud.te the
entire satisfaction of thp association and
the public.
The association also regrets the less, by
removal from the city, of Bre. D. R.
Thompson, the efficient executive secre
tary, who pei formed the duties pertaining
te the office of geueial secretary, since Mr!
Herr's resignation. Bre. J. M Davidsen
has been che en te fill his place.
llie vari-itis classes ei instruction inaug
urated last winter were again taken tip
this season, with the addition of a few
new ones. The latter are ene for the study
of vocal music under the leadership of H.
C. Melhngcr ; another for the study of
physiology, under the directied of Dr. J.
W. Crumbaugh.
The regular studies for moral aud intel
lectual instiuctien embrace : Bible study,
young men's meeting, gospel meeting,
teachers' meeting, lyeeum, music, boys'
meeting, btar club, medical talks aud lec
tures, and physiology. These are free te
all, male and female, young and old, and
are both interesting and instructive.
There was. an aggregate attendance at
these meetings during the yeir, including
prison services and association meetings-,
of eight thousand seven hundred and thirty-tour.
Frem the official records we flud that
there were during the year ending January
1, 1881, twenty-six thousand four hundred
and forty eight visits made te the reading
rooms, aud the books drawn from the
library during the time were nine thou
sand, four? hundred and sixty-six.
There were alsed Slibuted at the prison
and elsewhere, during the year, ever four
thousand religious papers and nearly six
thousand pages of tracts. Employment
aud bearding were secured for a number
of applicants by the appropriate ceminit-
Jjx reverting te the financial reports we
find that the receipts during theyear from
all sources were 91,3G6.43, and the expen
ditures $1,350.71, leaving a balance in the
hands of the treasurer en January 1. 1881,
of 815.72.
It may be of interest te learn that the
principal items of income were, from rent
$233.53 ; membership, dues and subscrip
tions te library, $341.60; donations,
$508.50; excursion, $170.75.
The main items of expense were, for
services of general secretary and assist
ant, $602.17 ; first installment of indebted
ness en building, $250 ; interest, $302.50 ;
for daily papers and rebinding books,
$39,30 ; insurance, $25.
The entire indebtedness of the associa
tion at this date is, in round numbers,
about $6,900, which is divided as follews:
Mortgage en building, at 5 J per cent,
$5,250; one year's interest en same,
$288.75; sundry bills for gas, printing,
papers, magazines, repairs and inciden
tals about $500; two promissory notes
with interest, amounting te $685 ;
salary of librarian, due April 1, 1881,
$125.
Our agreement with Mr. Samuel Miller,
from whom we purchased the property, is
that we pay the interest and an annual in
stallment upon the principal of $250.
There will therefore be due Mr. M. en
April 1, 1881. $538.75. Add te this $500
for sundry bills ; $125 for librarian's sal
ary ; $683 for two promissory notes, with
interest, and we find the sum of $1,818.75,
which euuht te be raid en the first of
April next.
The annual expenses of the association
in maintaining its free reading-rooms and
library as at present organized is as fol fel fol
eows: Interest en mortgage of $5,000,
8275 ; yearly installments $250 ; librarian's
salary'8300 ; papers and magazines about
$75 ; light, fuel and incidentals $100 ; in
rurauce and tax $40 ; making a total per
j'car of $1,040. Of course, if the annual
installments arc met, the interest will be
decreased from year te year.
Te meet this outlay the association has
an income from membership dues and sub
scribers te library of about $400 ; rents
$186 ; Athenaeum $24 ; making a telal per
year of $610.
Wc desire, however, te inform the pub
lic that the value of the personal property
of the association, consisting of the library
cases, furniture, etc.. is about $3,000, and
if its present indebtedness could be can
celled, and a small sum spent en the library
we feel confident it could be made self-sustaining
in the future.
We have briefly sketched the operations
of the association for the past twelve
months. It has been a year of labor and
anxiety te many of the members, and at
this time the outlook for the year upon
which wc have already entered has little
of premise te cheer the hearts of its friends,
who have se nobly steed by it ever since
its organization. But, as the brighest
day often succeeds the darkest night, se
let us hope that our present difficulties
may speedily vanish under the efforts
new being made for the accomplish
ment of that purpose. In the carrying
out of these intentions the public may be
called upon te decide whether or net this
institution, with its varied privileges,
shall l:i placed upon a permanent basis,
or whether it shall be permitted te strug
gle en in the future as it has done in the
past.
The contemplation of the facts as here
presented may net be of the most interest
ing and pleasing nature, but we deemed it
best, for all concerned, te place the stand
ing of the association in its proper light,
se that the public might be able te
judge intelligently as te its condition and
wants.
At the conclusion of the reading of the
report Miss Hear sang, very sweetly,
"Angels ever bright and fair."
Rev. J. Max Hark, pastor of the Mera
vian church, folio wed in a half hour address
wherein he gave his views of l he best
method of reaching and saving the great
number of boys and yeuug men of all
classes of society, that arc seen upon the
streets of all our cities. He alluded te
some of the mere prominent characteris
tics that mark the young man of the pres
ent age as, his self sufficiency, if net self
conceit ; his blind imitativencss and his
prenencss te imitate that which is least
worthy of imitation ; his love of secbty
and his aptness at finding the worst level
of it. These being some of the salient
characteristic of the young man, it should
be the aim of the earnest Christian te turn
tnem into tue eest channels. Don't as
same patronizing airs they despise such
things ; but make them your companions;
make them feel at home in your company ;
make the association's rooms mere at
tractive than the peel-room or the sa
loon; enlist the ladies in the cansc; organize
a scries of parties in the ladies' houses
and get the young men te attend them,
net as waifs from the highways and
hedges, but invite them as your friends.
These means the speaker thought were
among the best te draw out the mm that
is in the heart of every boy. The associa
tion, as an association, cannot de this
work ; it must be done by the individual
members, and their walk iu all the rela
tions of life must give proof of their hon
esty and earnestness
At the conclusion of Rev. Ilark's ad
dress, a basket collection was lit' ed for
the benefit of the association. Prof. Haas
meautimc playing a sole upon the organ.
Rev. Sylvanus Stall followed with a
brief address in which he stated that the
d ictrine of Christian ( associations was that
yeuug men are worth saving, while the
doctrine of the world was that they arc
net that they must be allowed te "sew
their wild eats," and settle down after
wards. The reverend speaker declared
that these who sewed their wild eats when
young would reap a crop of the same when
old., lie showed from history that all the
great men of the world including Napo Nape
leon, Washington, Luther, Knox, aud
many ethers, performed their greatest
work when they were young men. He
also showed from statistics that a vast ma
jority of all the criminals in -the peniten
tiaries ware young men, the average age
being about 25 year. It was of the ut
most importance therefore te leek after
and save the young.
Miss Bear sang very prettily the sole
"Come back te me, Douglas," after
which Rev. S. A. Taggart secretary of the
state association, delivered " a stirring,
seething, satisfactory speech," as he
jocularly styled it. It was an eloquent
anu vigorous appeal in behalf ei the asso
ciation work.
The doxology was sung and the audi
ence dismissed with a benediction by Dr.
J. B. Shumakcr.

Brandy as a Medicine
The following article was voluntarily sent te

the Brandy referred te in his regular practice.
It is commended te the attention of these af

This new much abused Alcoholic Stimulant
was never intended as a beverage, but te be
