TO MAKE THE WORLD BETTER. ‘What is Being Done by the W. ©. T. U. Bostox, Nov. 18.—The morning session of the last day of the dual convention of the World's and the National W.C. T.U. was opened this morning with the usual devotional exercises. The work of the morning was rapidly taken up. Firat came that of tho social department, under the charge of Mrs. Anna M. Hammer of Pennsylvania, the topic being “What are the Departments of Parlor Meetings, Flower Mis- sions, State and County Fairs and Unfermented W ¢ Doing for the Prevention of Intemper- ance! The department of flower mission, under the superintendence of Miss Jennie Casseday, was also reported uy Mrs, Hammer. “Flowers are distributed in the prisons and hospitals, and many & man has been led to think of home and ™many more to see the errors of their life a these innocent and silent workers.” She pai a glowing tribute to Miss Casseday of St. Louis, the originator of the idea. Mrs. Nichols of the state and county fair de- partment said that if you want to reach people for the temperance cause go to the fairs, and if you want to make money go also to the fairs, for there the people congregate. In England — the; aicaeky do reat work in going to the fairs, both national and international. In speaking of the Paris expo- sition, she said that President Carnot expressed great delightin the corner devoted to the work and the nature of the W. C. T. U. of the United States. After much trouble it is quite probable that the World's W. C. T. U. will have a rate building at the Columbian exhibition. A plan of the building was exhibited. « Unfermented wine had its testimony at the hands of Mrs. R. A. Esmond. The use of un- fermented wine is urged upon all congrega- tions for communion. The Bible wine, she said, was unfermented and modern church wine should be like it. Meetings and lectures are used to spread information in this department. In Pennsyl- vania fully one-third of the churches use fer- mented wine, but this proportion is being gradually reduced by the local unions. The people are being awakened to their danger from these churches. Mrs. Theresa A. Jenkins reported for the legal department. She made an earnest plea for the unrestricted enfranchisement of women. She said that every state had reported progress toher. The free ballot for woman is only a question of time. A poem dedicated to Miss Frances Willard by Miss Ella C. Ives and entitled “God Save Our Queen” was read by Mrs. Purington. Mrs. Hannah T. Bailey spoke for the peace and international arbitration department, and her remarks were full of hopeful outlook for the future. “Standing armies will exist so long as the world runs, if people contin use alcoholic drinks.”’ It was voted that a telegram be sent to the President and government of the United States against any belligerent action on part of the United States against Prayer and Bible reading followed. secrate me, O Lord, to Thy Service Now,” was sung by the request of Lady Somerset and the convention adjourned to afternoon, when it will close its labors. ——___ COMEDIAN FLORENCE BETTER. ‘The Physicians Deem It Safe to Leave Him to Take Rest Themselves. Purtaperrnra, Pa., Nov. 18.—Actor William J. Florence was much better this morning than he has been since the last sacraments of the church were administered to him yes- terday morning. Drs. Pancoast, Da Costa and Dunnellan were in attendance upon the come- dian until early this morning. When they saw 80 great a change for the better they left for thelr homes itr order to obtain a litte much- needed rest. They will hold another consulta tion this afternoon and issue a bulletin of the patient’s condition. i ‘At noon Mr. Florence's physicians held a consultation, at the termination of which the following builetin was issued. “The physicians are gratified that Mr. Florence holds his owa so well today, though he is not out of danger. He passed a better nigh e congestion of lungs that threatened Mr. Florence with death since Sunday has almost disappeared and the danger from that source is nearly over, but the struggle has left him so enteebled that his physicians now fear heart failure from exhaustion. ‘They decline to ¢ press any positive opinion as to Mr. Florence's very and say that the crisis will not be over Friday or Saturday. Mrs. Florence has not yet notified any of her family here when sho will sail for this country, but a cablegram is expected from her today. eS eS NEWS IN DRIBLETS. Little That Can Be Relied Upon Coming From Brazil. Loxpox, Nov. 18.—News from Brazil con- tinues to reach Europe in driblets and by round-about ways. No confirmation has yet been received of the Exchange Telegraph Com- pany’s Rio de Janeiro advices of yesterday re- porting that the naval and military officers stationed in Para had taken steps looking to the declaration of independence by that state. The, low ‘rats of exchange, 11 pence per millreis, which is equivalen: on gold of over 140, seems a clear indication of business uncer- tainty or growing fianancial demoralization, while the action of President Fonseca in issuing a decree for a special credit of 13,000,000 millreis (equivalent at the present rate of exehange to nearly _€3,000,000) for the purchase of war materials, is interpreted as showing that the dictator feels the neceasity of taking immediate steps to strengthen his mili- tary ition. ‘The Voltaire of Paris publishes an interview with Mr. C. De Piza, the Brazilian minister to France. Mr. De Piza, nceording to this, denies that Fonseca is exercising dictatorship. For he says, is a sincere republican and will undoubtedly always bow to the national will. He believes that the new elec- tions will result in the return of a thoroughly republican congress. The monarchists have not the slightest chance of coming into power. ‘The most important news received here today relates to affairs in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. This is given in a dispatch to the Times from Santiago de Chile. According to this the differences which have been interfering with perfect unity of action by the provisional junta now in authority in that state are disappearing and the members of the junta are now acting in harmony. es alge ts QUIETLY WEDDED. ‘Miss Irick of Vincentown, N.
