in the Churches.
The Christian Endeavorers have
solved a big problem In connection with
the big state convention to be held
here Oct. 6, 7 and 8. For months the
executive committee had been trying to
devise some plan for a temporary con
vention hall that would seat from four
to six thousand persona but without
success, Inaccessibility being the chief
Impediment. Finally It was suggested
that meetings be held simultaneously In
Elm Park church, the Frothingham
theater and the Academy ot Music.
This has been decided upon.
. The convention will begin at 4 o'clock
on Tuesday afternoon, Cth inst, though
the formal opening will not be until
the evening. In each of the three
places in the evening- there will be an
address of wolcome. The response In
one meeting will be by Rev. J. T. Ma
Crory, of Pittsburg1, president of the
State union; in the second by Rev,
Charlea Hoods, D. D., of Philadelphia,
ex-prestdent; and In the third by Rev,
George B. Stewart, D D., of Harrlsburg,
also ex-presldent. The reports of Pres
ident McCrory, Secretary George Mc
Donald, of Altoona, and Treasurer H.
J. Raymore, of Erie, will be given In
each. At 6.30 Wednesday and Thurs
day morning there will be sunrlBe meet
ings In each section of the city.

ternoon and evenlns sessions of
Wednesday and Thursday is to be dup
licated bo far as possible in each place
of meeting. The morning meetings

ervlces. At 3 o'clock Wednesday af
ternoon all meetings will be closed and

Junior societies. Wednesday evening
