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

tbe ministers and their suites set out. As

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,

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

of tbe palace irrouuds, about a hundred
yards off, where the envoys alighted nnd

Were conducted through the gate, when
the marble bridgo was seen about 200 yards
ahead. Tbls bridge divides tho northern

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

Ying Kung, where refreshments had been

not venture within the door.

about an hour i he room bad been adorned

Finally a move was made to the bank of
the lake. Along It runs a brond cemented

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

Excursions Hcrosa(the territory of Uru-
guay reveal iiotinii oi very gn at interest
to the tourist. 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. The cabins cf thu Irish
peasantry give sonic idea of the Uruguay
an rancho. It is n comfortless, unheal! hy,
rheumatic dwelling, less civilized than
that of t ho Ksiinimaiix and morn carelessly
built than the must ordinary bird's nest,

Tat Women.
Tho nppenrnnce on the frontier of the
army of too Wngandn had made it neces
sary to transfer the court of the king of
Lnjoro to safer quarters. Suddenly a
crowd collected round the pate of the pal-
nco. A cry ol astonishment and ailmiratlou
hurst from the lips of all tho spectators.
Horno on the shoulders of four stout
porters, a litter of large dimensions and
solid framework, in which reclined n
woman of colossal proportions, with small
eyes deeply sunk in their sockets, was
dragged over the threshold of the palace.
She Is one of the fattened wives of King
Tclma.
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

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
