Scranton's Religions Activities. to THE WORK OF THE SOCIETIES International Convention of Christian Endeavor Worker at Cleveland. What the Paatora of the City Churches Are Doing Services to be Held In the City Churches To morrow. Notwithstanding the anxiety of many hearts, that the railroad strike would interfere with the luternation conven tion of Christian Endeavor workers at Cleveland, we are glad to learn tbat no preceding convention eqtulieJ the thirteenth, held on Jnly 11, 13. 13. 14 and 15, in the city by the lake. When the yonng people are enthused they do cot counsel with their fears, and last week over 19.000 Endeavours crowded into the city from other states and took possession of it to such an extent that for a ff w days all aeeonnts ot the strike were nearly lost sight of. The address of welcome wss given by Governor MvKmlwv, of Ohio, who, catching the significance of these thousands, said: "It is a mighty canae that eould oonvsne the splendid assem blages of people gatberlug in this city by the lake. No cause but one could have brought together these noble, earnest people, and tbat is the cause of the Master and the csuie of man." - The past year was the moat snccesfnl ince its organization. Sscretary But said 7,803 companies were organized during the year. Last year New York led the states in the number of com panies, bnt now the banner is held by Pennsylvania, whioh has 8,453 com panies OD roll. A suggestion whs made to have a World's Christian Endeavor union, and five nations huve seconded the idea as the best poisible means of linking many Christians of many na tions together in tits of fellowship. Three lines of work were marked out in the convention. One is "good government, and tbe suggestion was made to form Robert Itos associations, iu commemoration of the martyr iu Troy, N. Y , who died for tbe purity of election. The other is "tomperance work," and many reports were made ot societies enforcing tbe laws of tbe states sgaiust the saloon. Tbe tbird is "missionary extension." One hundred young people offered themselves for the field in tbe convention, an I fes tooned from one end of the gallery to the otber whs a continuous sbeet or paper, over 450 feet long, oontaining tne names ot sosieties tbat bad given 110 or more to missions durintc thi pust year. The tots! anm contributed amounted to over $330,000. Tomorrow eveniu mere will b9 an Endeavor rally in tbe Providenee Pres byterian church, when the delegates from the companies in onr city will re port and Impart something ot the in spiration received in this most success ful International convention. Il v George Guild, Hiss Cora M. Dicker and Charles H. Chandler will speak. N FRESH AIR AN O SUNSHINE. Christian philanthropy has of late years directed its attention to what may be called the gospel of fresh air and sunshine. Tutt aotivity is the re sult ot faith "tbat not having enough ot sunshine was what ailed the world, Make people happy and there will not be half tne quarreling or a tenth cart of the wicked nets there Is." This evi dently is tbe conviction of most of the Scranton churches, which have planned or are pianuing excursions to tbe coun try. Hundreds of little children have beeu taktn to the sbady mountain top or to tbe side of a clear lake, where the pure air or heaven can be enjoyed and nature, newly created by tbe band ol uod, can be seen in all her grandeur lhe children are enchanted and for many days they chirp as merrily as the birds tbsy saw in the country flying irom tree to tree. The "Dalton Home," instituted by ot. LiUKe s church, is Inline with re cent Christian enterprise and other churches in our city will, in time, un doubtedly emulate its eiamnle in this There are widows who scrub and wash lor fllty two weeks iu tbe year, that tbe wolf niHy be kept away from the fatherless children left to their care. It is no wonder that their hearts ache, their nerves are unstrung and they ioo wun envy on those more favor aoiyiiiuaiea 'la t.ike tn s for two weeks to the country where the clovr dotted meadows smile, tne flivvers till tbe air with fragrance and the oatt.e leisurely rest in the cooling shad ', is sot only a physical blessing to them. but also soften thuir hearts and brings thsir souls to closer evmnathv with the Christianity tbatinspires men and women to shed so pleas uit a gleam upon xneir areury lire. The respons of the people of Scran ton have been generous and we hope this good work will srow year bv vear and its ulad. deninjr influence be more aud more felt sen summer. ACTIVE Lay WORKERS. Key.

THE EMPEROR PERSONALLY RE CEIVES FOREIGNERS. A Splendid Spectacle on a Fine Day. Th Curious Ceremonies An Odd Look ing Procession An Account of the Re ception to the Ministers. The ftth of March proved atypical Peking early spring day with a clear bluu sky. bright sun and crisp, keen air About 10 o'clock, as had been agreed with the yamen, tbe ministers and their suites set out. As each lexation followed at short distances the others on their way down, the wholo formed a muss of thirty-one sedan chairs thut carried the members of the diplomatic body, attended by four mounted servants in full dress, from each legation, as well ns one or two mouuted Chinese officers sent to guide each representative to the Ku Una .Men (or Gate of Mowery Prosperity), where tbe ministers of thoTsung-li Yamen were to receive them. In all tbe total of tbe cortege was nhont sixty mounted men nnd over 200 .chair bearers. Crowds of Chinese collected along tbe route to watch this novel pngennt pa.1, tho dark green chairs, with the silver knohes on the roofs glistening in the sun, tbe glimpses of the plumed hats and brill iant uniforms of the envoys nnd their suites, and the crowds of horsemen accnm panylng the line, appearing to them a sol enin and remarkable spectacle. About It o'clock the ru Him Men was reached, outside of which a double lino of soldiers kept tbe road. Tho chairs pro ceeded through this gate to the inner gate of tbe palace irrouuds, about a hundred yards off, where the envoys alighted nnd were received by tbe ministers and secre taries of the Tsung-li Yamen. ROUTE OF THK ritOCKSSlOJJ. After the exchange of greetings tho party Were conducted through the gate, when the marble bridgo was seen about 200 yards ahead. Tbls bridge divides tho northern from the middle divisiou of the lake which runs north aud south through the palace grounds. On Its eastern bunk, within a high wall, was the Forbidden City, only the roofs of the buildings nnd tho Coal hill belnu visible from the Fu Hun Men, 1 he paved road followed by tho ministers after entering the unto ran about liftv yards southward along the western bank oi the middle lake toward tho Tzo Kuang Ko (which Is neur the water), then turned off to the right to the Shih Ying K 11112, one of the temples whero in summer the emperor prays for rain Tho view from this small temple Is picturesque, tho grounds being full of old trees, which give the gar dens a monastic appearance. Both sides of the path were lined by sol dters and military olliclnls in full uniform, who remained silent und stationary as tho envoys passed. When, however, the hit ter has! entered an tmier room of the Shih Ying Kung, where refreshments had been prepared, the little court of the temple be came packed with palace and other tin derlings In ollicial hats, who evinced a dog ged curiosity at the spectacle of tho for eigners, but remained fairly quiet and did not venture within the door.

In a few minutes Prince Chling arrived, and tbe party remained smoking, chatting and tasting tbe delicacies on the table for about an hour i he room bad been adorned with a foreign carpet, and was warm nnd comfortable, while the princo and minis ters were in their most affable vein. Finally a move was made to the bank of the lake. Along It runs a brond cemented rood, on which Is laid a uarrow gunge lino of rail on which, pushed by men, not drawn by steam power, the emperor some times takes an airiug.

Iour tents, elegantly provided with stoves, carpets, tables and chairs, had lieeti erected under the eastern side of the vAL Here the ministers and their Btaff awaited the summons to the imperial presence. THE CEItKMONY The ceremony was as follows: According to the agreement the ministers entered um: stepped forward to between the dragon pillars (two pillars at about six feet from tbe platform on which the emperor sat). making ou their way the three obeisances usually made at n court in the presence o the sovereign Prince Ch'ing, kneeling by the side of the emperor, then introduce the minister by name, the latter thereupon reuduig an addrnss. which was repeated iu Chinese by his Interpreter.

Chinese limes. Boxing; as Sport. Boxing Is precisely what yon make it. If you put cloves on a couple of toughs th result will be a fight lined with slugging and gore; if gentlemen put on the gloves thero will follow n contest equally ns de- termlned, with blows probably stronger, but directed with judgment and skill, nnd received in like manner. The great differ ence between tho slugger nnd boxer is that the former stands stolidly awaiting his op portunity to deliver n knock out blow, actuated with but the one idea of render ing his opponent senseless, nnd trusting to his tough hide to withstand blows. The boxer, on the other hand, Is testing his skill with a fellow clubman; his blows nre clean nnd strong, hut he Is expert rtough to avoid punishment, or, If not, his opponent Is judicious in its delivery. What holds good so far as boxing Is concerned, is equally applicable to nny other sport. If foils nro put into the hnnus oi two or the same class that monopolizes public boxing, of what character will bo the cxhibitionr If they wrestle, will not their coarse nature be evidenced f It is not the sport but the clement that pervades it which makes Its character. If men put on the gloves for tho solo purpose of punching one another into a state of iu sensibMlty, why put on gloves at all? The job can surely he done much quicker with tho bare fists. Indeed, If tho solo Idoa is to knock one's opponent senseless, why waste time with (loves or fists when a stout stick certainly would be much more effectivef Why not take tho button oil your foil in fencing, nnd settle your adversary with tho first tbrustr Why not throttlo your mnu at once In wtastllng, and have done with it,f It la well enough to prate ot "how shull we roiino amateur boxing?" The sport is all right; it's the, nuitkersthat monopolize it, and who will drag into the mire any game they take up. Harper's Weekly. A Country of Cattle, Itulscrs.

The landscape in parts Is pretty; some finely situated estnncias are to lie seen iilonglhu banks of the Uruguay; the vicinity of tho luo Negro, too, is pcciully interesting and characteristic of the fertilo parts of the territory, which present a similar combination of water, wood and rolling prairie. Hut after all, ono soon wearies of looking nt tho same ind of view hour after hour, lenguu after league, and provinco after province lhe fences of posts und wire nro varied sometimes by fences of aloes and cactus; the eucalyptus, the poplar nnd other trees nre also planted to form fences, as In Chili; the roads, where ono sees long tennis of o.en toiling along with lingo wagons, nre as terrible us those of the Argentine-; the prairies arc dotted with iniiiiinerablo herds I cattle and horses; occasionally you see two or three peasants wearing brown pon chos rilling and driving animals before them; nt long intervals you see one or two ranchos, or huts, where the peasants live. In tho Argentine the ranchos appeared mt.erable cnoii;;h, but in Uruguay I saw many even more primitive, mere huts of black mud, with a roof of maize st raw, a floor of beaten earth, a doorway, but not always a window.

At t he courts of Uganda and Unjoro it is considered t he fashion and a sign of regal magnificence to keep a number of fattened wives who have attained tho highest de gree of corpulency. This article of luxury is regarded us n token of wealth and con summate relinemetit, nnd its possession makes tho royal spouse an object of envy. This result is brought about by a course of systematic leeuing adapted to timo and circumstances, until the "subject" is un able to stand on her feet, and can only move along painfully ou ull fours. Zchn Juhro in Aequatoria. Formation of Chalk. In a space not more than one-quarter of an inch in diameter perhaps ns many as SOU separate shells may he counted, many of which arc perfect lu form. Here and thero scattered about you will see some shells of the exact form of the moiUrn conch shells, only they are a million times smaller. You will also probably see many ong, straight and cylindrical shells, sim ilar in appearance to the gigantic orlhoce ras (straight horns) of the carboniferous limestone. Fossil orlhoceras have been found inoro than a foot in length, but theso little congeners of theirs are not more than the 1 ;i,WK)lh of nn inch long. Others, formed exactly like the great wheellike shells of the ammonites of tho cretaceous period, are also to be seen. Still others, the foraniinifera, lay in groups liko piles of coins toppled over. Jly counting these, some of the clusters will ho found to tontain from eight to twenty separate Bhells. liy using polarized light, theso coinlikc bodies sparkle and glow with tho most gorgeous colors, livery tint of the rainbow flushes forth as tho analyzer is rotated. Others will rcsemhlu tinv wafers, perfo rated with curiously shaped openings. These latter once formed interior skeletons of tiny animals, much liko Iho model squids or cut t lelishes. Most inollusks have their skeletons on the outside for tho pro tection of the soft parts within; but still others havo the stircode or fleshy portions nrratv.-cd nronud nn iniernal bony axis, in tho same manner as in tho class of verte bral o animals. The cuttlefish of the pres ent day belongs tothis hitler class, and l lie substance sold ns cuttlefish bone, used bv canary birds I o w het their bills nnd .'l ind up tho grain in their gi;v.anls, is nothing but this interior shell. .Macou Telegraph.

That nil miners did not p-t rich is nc counted for in the stalement. Mint it took a fair claim to pny expenses. Tho short du ration of a pleccr claim, the loss of time In lilidinn iitiulher, nnd tho too general restlessness, tell the story of many failures to realize a fortune by even t hose who wero the most lucky.
