Work of KnllrouJ V. M. C. A.
The Influence exerted by the Railroad
department of the louog aien s Chris-tC-an
association In improving the char-
a-ciier of employes In all grades ,of the
railroad service Is receiving more and
Tpore recognition from all parts of the
country, although ithe eastern lines
have availed themselves of -this means
to a greater extent than have those of
' the -west and south. For a long time
the experiment of the New York Cen
tial and one or two other systems in
fostering the work rf the association
. was intently watched by other rail
roads. Their subsequent adaption of
Similar measures and especially the
conversion of powerful lines like the
Pennsylvania, from an attitude of sus-
plc-hm 'to one of thorough Indorsement
proves the success of the experiment
The Southern railroad is now arrang
ing for the rotation at nine division
points on Its extensive system, of
brandies of the association. The cost
rtf erection of hulldlrsss will toe borne
. by the railroad; except for such as may
tie secured from citizens of the towns
Interested. The expense of mainten-
ance also falls on the company.
In the west the most important en-
terprise of the near future Is the new
' union building at iSt: Louis, to be built
on railroad property adjacent to he
Union station. The cost of the building,
$75,000, is to be divided on the wheelage
basis 'between 'the roads using the sta-
. Iron. -At the present time 80 per cent,
of the amount has been pledged and
h work of erection will he delayed
only until pprlng. Included in the lines
Interested In this enterprise are the
Missouri (Pacific, the tVaibash. the Big
Four, the Burlington, the Alton, the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas, and the
yandalia.
In the east the association rejoices In
wo ma-gnWicent new 'buildings, one In
Fhllade lphla, the other in New York.
The Philadelphia building is exclusive
ly forth men of the Pennsylvania sys
tem. Its cast exceeded $100,000. In
is'ewYork an addition has recently been
completed to the -few York Central
building. A valuation of $100.00 each
1s placed on th original building and
Its addition. The entire expanse in
woh case was assured personally by
Cbmeiliua VanderbHt.
Mr. and Mrs. Sanborn Surprised.
The converts and friends of the Res
cue mission gave Mr. and Mrs. Sanborn
a very pleasant surprise Monday eve
ning on the third anniversary of their
mission work In this city. Ice cream
and cake were served at the close of
the e.vening service, at which about
fifty of the friends gathered. It was
a complete surprise, and a very enjoy
able occasion to all.
The annual address of the president,
John 'Wanamaker, will form the prin
cipal feature of the opening session on
Tuesday evening, Oct. 8. of the Thirty
first annual convention of the Pennsyl
vania State Sabbath school associa
tion at Williamsport, Pa. Mr. Wana
maker la so well known as a Sunday-
school superintendent and excellent
speaker that no doubt there will bo
scarcely any extra room available at
the opening meeting of the conven
tion. Added to this are the general ar
rangements that have been planned
with great care and abundant fertility
of resources, under the able leadership
of General Chairman of the Committee
ffP. M. B. H'iicks, of Williamsport. There
Is certain to be a very large attendance.
Further particulars concerning the con
vention pan be obtained by addressing
the secretary, Dr. C. J. Kephart, Ann
vllle. Pa..'
The young ladles of the First Pres
byterian church are a great aid to the
committee of the Presbytery that Is
working among the foreigners In this
region, They have established and
maintain an Italian mission and mis
sionary, and have been very successful.
-In aid of their work an enjoyable clip
ping social was given Thursday night
in the lecture room of the church. .
II. Had a Praying Mother.
Evangelist Schlverea was once a
variety actor. He had a praying mother
and tltrough her and Mr. -Moody was
led to Christ. Since then it Is estimated
that he has addressed a million per
sons. His mother once said to him:
"I have good news for you. my 'son.
You are going to be converted and do a
great work for God "before you die."
The3e woids were spoken to him as
they were leaving the stage door of a
Brooklyn variety theater.. Young
Schlverea made no reply, but accom

panied his mother borne tn silence,
N.it long alter this event SchUema,
with several theatrical companions,
was-passing-the. big Brooklyn rink
where Moody was hold services. Some
one put a card of invitation Into his
hand, and w Ith his friends he entered
and took . a rear seat, behind 7,000
others. For some. time after entering,
the preaching of -the great evangelist
made no impression, scamtnirlv. but
finally, when iMoody began to apply his
truths and make his home thrusts, the
young actor began to . think very
seriously, from that moment new am
bitions nd desires took possession of
young Schlverea. It was a thorough,
rock-bottom conversion, and he saw
life from a different standpoint. He
first went among his former associates
on tne stage for personal work. -Then
he hired a room and' commenced Gos
pel services. Inviting the people In and
telling them In a stumbling wav what
God haxl done for him. That was the
numhie beginning of a great work
which has been wonderfully blessed In
the succeeding years, when he has al
most without Intermission been preach
ing the Gospel In all parts of the ITnlt
ed States and Canada.

THE WOULD OF BUSINESS
WALL STREET REVIEW.
Now York, Sept. 27.--Tradlng at the
stock exohance still continues of a pro
fessional character. At the opening
Ami markot rhowed an advancing tend
ency, the demand running chiefly to the
anthracite coalers. Sugar and Distill
ing and Cat'tle Feeding. The Improve
ment In the coalers was most pro
rwu need In the case of the Reading se
curities, London having bought heaVily
of the -stock anil the preference In
comes. Authorities placed the pur-
t'nu-srs of the stock at 11 f teen to twenty
thousand shares, while the buying of
the bonds was simply enormus. The
'brighter ouitlook for the anthracite
trade as well aa a belief that the J.
P. Morg'an interest Intend taking hold
of -the property for the purpose of put
ting It in good financial Hhape, accounts
for the advance in these securities to
day. The comm.m stock rose 1 to
22, and the bonds anywhere from
to 2 per cent. 'Lackawanna advanced
1 Ito 170. and Susquehanna and West
ern preferred to 304. The market
closed quiet ami steady. Total sales
were 223,807 shares, Including 73,400
Heading, IIS.KH) 9lstllllng and Cattle
Feeding, 16,:!00 St. Paul and 14,400
Sugar.

NEWS OF OUR INDUSTRIES. I
Happenings of Interest to the Stapol
Trades and Particularly to the Trade
in Iron. Steel and Anthraolte Coal.
The Lehljrh Valley foundry at
Weatherly la working ten 'hours, and
many of -the laborers are compelled to
work overtime.
(Freight rates on iron and ateel (man
ufactured products) between Harrls
burg and New 'England points will be
advanced 3 cents per 100 pounds in car
lots, to 'take effect Oct. IB.
The output of pig Iron continues at
about 200,000 tons per week, the largest
In recent years. This means a railroad
tonnage of nearly a million- tons per
week, counting ores, fuel, limestone,
tan-d, firebrick and other needful fur
nace supplies.
The regular annual Inspection of the
Pennsy's main line and branches will
be begun Oct. 14. Comprising the In
specting party will be most of the di
rectors of the company and a number
of tne leading officials. The work of
Inspection will probably last -two weeks.
'President Wood, of 'the Maryland
Steele company, has announced that
-Ares would be lighted under all the
blast furnaces at Sparrows Point, and
that probably the works will resume
operations In all departments In a
week or ten days. iA large number
of workmen who were thrown out when
the works shut down three years ago
will be given employment.
RAILROAD NOTES.
Lehigh Valley surveyors are tn the
field for a third time between Geneva
and Seneca Falls.
The Santa Fe Railroad company's
phops at Topeka, Kan., are running full
time, with about 1,300 men, which is
about 500 more than has been required
for some time.
On Sunday over the entire Old Col
ony system a change was made from
left to rleht-thand running. The change
has been a radical and expensive one
to the company.
On the. 'Southern Pacific the use of
brass checks for checking local bag
gage ihas been entirely abandoned and
cardboard checks, attached to trunks
by strong twine, substituted.
The -Lake Erie and Western Railroad
company Is running Its chops on full
time (and full handed, and its entire
equipment Is being put In the best con
dition. A inum'lier of Its engines have
recently been thoroughly rebuilt.
The United States Car company re
ports business as Improving. The com
pany Is now open'lng Its shops at An
nlston, Ala., and will soon (have Its
axle, forge ami bar mill in operation.
The shops a-t Urbana, Ohio, are full of
work, principally repairs,
of their own dining cars, which was
commenced two moniths ago, ihtaa prov
en highly satisfactory ami the patrons
of the road are much be 'Mer pleased. It
should be raid that the roads took the
business off the hands of the Pullman
company at a fortunate time, as during
the last two months travel cast and
west has been the heaviest in many
years.
Officials) of ithe - 'Pennsylvania and
Vandalla lines elate that the operating
Ticket scalping Is prohibited by law
In Canada, and even purchasers of ex
cursion tickets are not allowed to sell
them to other parties, as provision Is
made for their redemption at the rail
way ofllces. At Toronto recently a
man was arrested for offering for tale
the return half of an excursion ticket
from Sudbury to Toronto, and as the
lowett penalty la $20 and costs or ten
day's imprisonment and the man had
no money he was sent to Jail for the
short term. In this case the laiw seems
to have worked a hardship upon an
ignorant man, but ithe example will
doubtless have good elfeot in check
