He took no text, but for an hour kept the close at- tention of the audience by an appeal to the un- converted, who, he sald, should choose Christ, confess Him, separate themselves from the world and pray. During the prayer meeting that fot- lowed, Rev. J. W. Gray, of Washington, exhorted, and in response about fifteen came to the mourn- er’s bench, ten or twelve of whom were converted. When ten o'clock arrived there were still penttents atthe altar and the meeting was coutinued.

Among the local oarsmen the greatest interest attaches to the elght-oared shell race and the senior four-oared shell race. The Columbla eight il again meet the Metropolitan eight, wao hold the championship, and will endeavor to retrieve the disasters that befell them at Newark. “We Will dorthe best we can to bent them,” said one of the Columbia men last evening.
