General Sec retary II. W.

The exercises, which began at 3:43 o'clock and lasted until nearly 6, were opened with that old hyrpn, "All Hail the Power of Jesus" Xame." Rev. J. M.

Jliller and his three little daughters sang "The Ransom of the Lord," aud then came the reading of the annual report by William M. Mclntyre. After a hymn entitled "Throw Out the Life Line" had been sunc by the entire congregation, Walker C Iougla, of Philadelphia, was introduced to the asseniblase. "To Mr. Douglas fell the honor of deliver ing the anniversary address. The speaker confined himsclt to the grcst and good work that had been accomplished by estab lishing railroad branches to the Young Men's Christian Association. He gave an account of the work in its infancy, showed the progress that had been made and claimed that in tne near future Christian Rndeavor among railroad men would reach far beyond the greatest expectations of tl)e present. Mr. Douglas interspersed his re marks with several good anecdotes to illus trate his talk and to make it more thor oughly understood by his hearers. During Mi.

Dr. Sutherland's dis co. irc at the Second Prcsbytenan Church last nUht. Ilistetwas taken from John x-L.9: 'Tlieie is a lad here which hath five liailey loaves and two small fishes." After Cehiilms the cucumstances of tho miracie Irom w Inch the text is taken, he said: "We can Imagine the impression which this manPcsiatio.i of superhuman power mist liaeinade on the liuiids, not only of tie promi'dion crowd pre-enr, but also on tho mlndb of the disciples; nnd ono cannot help wnnderms now the oung lad feltns he wit aie-scil the miraculous multipliciition of tho tirojion which he alone had prudently pioidod " hile studying the incident I lia e be". wondninr; too what the result would have licen ii he had been a-, thonjilitlpss as al" the lest, and in the excitement of the hoi: and the occasion stai ted off with the rushing enmu nithoutiits nroi-ion l mi.se con fes nl( to a feelins of l-eaiet tint the r.in:.eliNts, n someone or them, have no jrivcn n- i climpso into hi after life IIov eci. we are -it ltbcitvtodraw onour iui-i nation as to his subsequent caieer and picture to ourselves how. perhaps, as ho be came .i tine ana f.iitbfnl disciple of the Mas ter lie. lor jcirs mid jears aftci, would recite tho wondrous talc While this joune lad's name is not lecordrd noran hshc thrown on his after in the Gospel iiarrnlue. we aio cl.id that John rccoids the met that it was he n ho had ilio lorcthoiil.t and prudence to provide that which our Mioi not onlyaumented Into an abundant least for the hiinj-rv multi tude, but a feast which was turned byllini into a sacrament.

Rut it has occurred to me that the conduct or this young lad Is worthy of Kinie noiico that it susgests lessons to which we would all do well to take heed, and perhaps the most important of these lessons is this. viz the importance of pio viding emergencies. They are occurring constantly in our lives and experiences. It Is ery cedent that this boy was both thoughtful mid prudent. He anticipated possibilities." Coatiinnug his remarks in the same train of thought, Dr utheiland concluded with: To fail to win the pri7es of eaith that were lairlv and honorably within one's reach is a misfortune truly, but an lnfiniteh greater misfortune it is to tail through indifference or carelessness to win t'lo prizes of Heaven naj, moic.it is ac lime as well as a misfor tune." WILL J. IX'COSNELL SPEAKS. lie Draw s a Iarge Audience to the W. C. T. U. Meeting. The announcement that Will J. McConnell would speak drew a large audience to the W. C T. V. meeting last night at Grant street and Second avenue, Mrs. Fosier, the Piesldentof the Union, presided andintio duced Mr. McConnell, n ho spoke pathet ically and regretfully of his own past expe licnce with drink, and earnestly exhorted the young men present to live lives or total abstinence A large part of his address was a review of the various temperance movements of the day. Ho eulogized the Woman's Chils tian Temperance Union, tho Katuer Mathew societies, and spoke in glowing terms of tho Kceley cure. He said that he believed It had broucht sunshine to thousands of home. When theunvltatlon was given to sian the pledge a number of men went to the front, enrolled their names and received the white badge .Irom the ladies of the Union. During the evening, berore and after the speech, Mrs, John Getmau sang a number of songs, BESIDE THE WATEE. The Salvation Army Camps on the -Monon-galiela Wharf. The Salvation Army jesterday held its services on the whaif. Although tho breezes fiom the Monongaliela were blowing very chilly, a bundled or more people stood and listened to the soldiers' talk. Tho army paraded over the downtown streets and then halted on the wharf at the loot or Wood street. Many neople followed them as they marched along, hut the greater number beat a retreat when they found the meeting was to be held in the open air. The cxeiclses were similar to those last Surday, except that they were gone through in moro subdued tone than usual. The police did not interfere with them. The army have made Captain John Etcln a good offer for his excuision boat the City of Pittsburg. They wish to hold religious services on board. Captain Klein is giving the matter serious consideration. rEMPEEAHCE WOEKEBS IH EEEOE. They Do Wrong to Call Upon the Liquor Sellers for Aid. At the Bethany Mission last evening there was a crowed house to hear John J. Moore deliver nn address. The speaker was intro duced by Rev. Mr. Whiteside. Mr. Moore told how a man should approach God in ol der to overcome his evil habits. He claims that a drunkard is afflicted physically, but if he asks God for a clean heart aud desires to lead n Christian Hto ho can overepme his appetite for l urn. In tlie course br his remarks Mr. Moore said It waR wronj for temperance workers to ask assistance of liquor dealers to carry on their Rood work and afterward stand upon the platrorm nnd publicly denounce saloonkeepers as rascals. Mr. Mooro placed the T. I. G. buttons on 17 men who signed the pledge last nieht PKEACHIHQ THE GOSPEL. Dr. Sands Says Ii Is Applicable to All Con ditions of Society. Preaching the Gospel was tho subject of a sermon by the Rev. J. D. Sands at the" Seventh U. P. Chmch yesterday morning. In the courso of Ills remarks Mr. Sands en deavored to dispel some erroneous concep tions which are cntertainod by certain per sons as to what constitutes true gospel preaching. Taking for a text First Corinthians, 1.17, "Christ sent me not to baptlzo,Dut to preach tho gospel," Mr. Sands defined what he con sidered ai Paul's conception of true gospel preaching. He said: "The GospeUas preached fcv Paul, forms an Interesting study, not for the preacher alone, but as well for the hcirer. There are times when the minister, in dealing with some or the sins common to society, is charged with preaching some other doctrlno than that of the Gospel. It is not an uncommon thing lor those whose sins nre rebuked to cry lustily for what they aro plcased.toterm the preaching of the Gospel. In view of this It is well for us to obsen e the preaching of the Gospel by ono who may be regarded as a master preacher. Consldorprimarily wnat was the Apostles' conception of and what did Paul refer to by the term gospel nothing short or thnt which is implied by the expressions: "Jesus Christ and Him Crucified," and "Christ, the Resurrection " Paul conceived the gospel to be summed un in the statement of Christ, winch was that power by which men aro upiutea irom tnnaeptns or sin into ft state ot primitive perfection. But It was not In merely setting forth of the docliine, but in tlie full and complete application of its truths to the needs of everyday life that its full benefit is obtained. Tho Gospel Is nothing it It is not applicable to Hie in every form. There Is nothing in life that can bo regarded as beyond the reach of the Gospel. Paul applied it to everything in life, and there was no condition of sociotv concern ing which. In his bands, the Gospel was" silent." BUIIES OF THE H0U3. Dr. Varner Treaclies at the Trinity M. E. Church I-ast Night. Rev. W. P. Varner. pastor of the Trinity M. E. Church,, preached his annual Thanks giving sermon last night to the members of the Mystic Chain, who were present in a body. The subject chosen was tho "Duties of the Hour." Taking for his text Psalms 1G 17, "I will offer Thanksgiving," etc., Dr. Varner dwelt upon the splended achieve ments and possibilities of the age, and gave some attention to the social problem-. He Is greatly in faVorof organization. Among othor things Rev. Mr. Varner said: "Human life is progressive, and this century has marked an era of progress, unparalleled in history. The latest evi dence of the progress of intellect and cul ture In America is evinced in our peaceful attitude towaid the world. Diplomacy is t iking the place of warlare and we are coming to icconlze the truer principles which lie at tlie foundation ot perfect gov ernment. Great results can always best be accomplished by combined and organized effort, concentrated ettoitas directed by gitat minds closely allied, bent on the ac complishment of somo great movement cannot bo otherwio than successruL And where such combined effort has tailed in the accomplishment or its ends it is due tottiefact that those organized efforts are divided amour themselves. 'United we stand. Divided we tall.' In the accom plishment of good it is the duty or every man to unite with a Christian church, that his efforts may be abetted, nnd consequent ly mako a greater Impression."

ONLY ONE IN A BILLION Is the Chance of the Farth and Mela's Comet Coming in Contact. SO SATS PROFESSOR KEELER. The latest fbseiTations Will Be Given From Harrard 1 his' Week. TIIEBE IS ANOTHER COMET YISiBLE Prof". Keeler, of the Allegheny Observa tory, does not anticipate that the comet, supposed to be' Bielas, will .come in con tact with the earth in crossing its orbit. Prof. Keeler said yesterday: "The nucleus of a comet is supposed to be a solid body of metallic density. If the comet should come along before the earth got out of its orbit there might be' a shower ol meteorite that could destroy life nnd property. Such showers in the present case are not at all improbable. Astronomers .have 'been watching the new comet with their tele scopes whenever the sky has been clear enough to do so, and it is fortunately in very good position for observation. "The chances of our coming in contact with the nucleus of the comet are about one in a billion, and while the earth may pass through some portion of the tail of the comet, as it has done before, there would not be a soul on earth cognizant of the fact, so far as we know. Bullions of Miles of Blatter. To give an idea of the extreme tenuity of the tail of this comet, we are now looking at it almost on end, and possibly looking through millions of. miles of this attenu ated matter. Observations made by my self nd Mr. Brashear with the large tele scope on Friday night showed there was no diminution of the light of stars through the enttro .mass. No less than 13stars were seen shining through it. One of these stais was quite near to the nucleus where the coma or surrounding haze was the most dense, and yet it seemed to shine as brightly as if it were standing out in the blue sky. The comet Is likely coming 'almost directly toward us. as It has only moved in right as cension about two degrees and Its motion north has boen scarcely peiceptlble since its discovery. "It Is really very easy to trace the path of a comet through the sky, as it can be seen paasing over or near stars, and In this way the orbit can readily ce determined. It Is only necessary to get three positions on al ternate nights to obtain a preliminary orbit, but It these times are sepa-ated by an inter val or a weet, the orbit can be very closely calculated." Calculating the Coarse of Comets. The Allegheny observatory is not sup plied with instruments suitable for de termining orbits, but this Is being done in other .observatories and the positions of,.tlie comet given for months ahead- The calcu lated orbit of 'the comet is expected during the early part of the week from the head- quarters of such information at Harvard observatory. Astronomers apprehend ab solutely no danger to the inhabitants of this sublunary sphere, at least those at the Alle gheny Observatory did not seem in the least concerned. 'There is another very, interesting comet in the morning sky," continued the pro cessor. "It was discovered by Mr. Brooks, of Geneva, N". Y., during the summei, but it is now 25 times brighter than at the time of discovery. It is situated Just south of the constellation or Leo and w ill be in tho con stellation of Sextans to-night. Its position, astronomically speaking, for to-night is right ascension 10950';declination south 6 37'. It Is mpving south at the rate of 1 per day, so that amateurs wishing to observe this In teresting comet willjhave no trouble to follow it. There are also two other comets in the sky within the range of the telescope, hnt as they are difficult objects we will not glvo their positions unless desired." A COLLEGE DOOMED. Tlie' South Carolina Superintendent De clares Against the State Institution. Columbia, S. C, Nov. 2a Tho South Caro lina College must go Is the burden of a por tion of 'Superintendent of Education May field's report, to be submltted'to the Legis lature this week. This comes in the nature of a sensation one that will wake up a largo part of the people of the State, in whose af roctlons this historical institution is deeply imbedded and tho prospect is that it will provoke a greatflght. Superintendent May field's report shows the advisability of clos ing the college and converting it into a nor mal and industrial college for males and fe males, after the manner of the Peabody Nor mal College at Nashville. His conclusion is reached from the fact that the institution nas attracted probably 70 students during tho last session, whllo a very large and strong faculty is being main tained and $35,000 is appropriated by the State, For tho last five years tho college has beeu a factor In politics, and last year the administration was curtailed in the thorough branches and removed the agri cultural and Industrial features to Clemson College, the Institution recently established for the farmers. A bill embodying the Superintendent's suggestion will:be intro duced in the Legislature this week. PEARY FOR THE POLE. The News of the Proposed Greenland Expe dition Confirmed. PniLAPELrniA, Nov. 20.
