Again did the rains descend today to @ampen the ardor of the Christian Endeav- orers. They were a little discouraged by the persistent downpour, but they plucked up spirits when, at noon, the sun burst through the clouds and shone forth once more, and threw cheer and hope into their | hearts. They attended the great meetings | In the tents more generally than would be supposed under the circumstances. Each of the great inclosures was filled, and the delegates showed that they had entered into the spirit of the convention heartily | end fully. The addresses at these meetings were productive of great results. In each tent there were scenes of enthusiasm and signs of a general spiritual awakening. The early morning prayer meetings were con- tinued, and the fervent interest In the work of the great organization was kept up and intensified by these agencies. ; No material progress was made today with the fallen tent, and the program was | still disarranged to that extent. It Is ex- pected, however, that the tent will be erected in time for the holding there the regular meetings arranged for that place beginning tomorrow morning. Evening Meetings More Largely At- tended. Fortunately the throngs were easily ac- commodated in the two tents, so that there were no material changes to be made this morning. The evening meetings, however, are the more largely attended, end in pur- ance of the plan inaugurated last night, the session scheduled for Tent Williston tonight will be held in the Metropolitan M. E. Church, at the corner of 4% and C streets. This afterncen there will be meet- ings of the officers and committees in the varius churches, and much business of importance will be transacted. The trustees of the United Society at their meeting last evening decided that the convention of 1897 should be held at San Francisco. This city had been chosen a year previous for the meeting place of ‘97, but the final decision was withheld un- til the delegates from the coast could se- cure assurances from the railroads that sfactory rates could be secured. This done and the trustees have now rati- fied the city of San Francisco for next year. No decision was reached as to the meeting plac: for two years hence, how- ever, and Nashville, Philadelphia, Louis- ville and Omaha are’ still struggling for the honor. >morrow meetings similar to those of today and yesterday will be held. The junior rally scheduled for Tent Williston probably take place in the morning at Central Hall, if the tent is not raised in time. In the afternoon there will be a great song service on the steps of the Capitol, followed by a march down the avenue and later in the evening by a bi- eycle parade. Be The delegates are beginning to sing in the streets and in the cars as they go from point to point in their sight-seeing. Their example is contagious, and Washingtonians are already beginning to learn the refrains of such songs as “Scatter Sunshine,” and “The Light Is Come.” The visitors have officially been estimated at 32,000, and the al registration of the convention is about m). There are not quite as many here as were expected, but there are enough to make a great gathering, filled with en- thusiasm, philosophic over the -damp weat and firm in the belief that the United Society of Christian Endeavor is the greatest erganization in the world, a belief that is shared by many of the peo- ple of the capital city. inning to Sing in the Streets. TENT ENDEAVOR. Addresses Made That Excite the Most Intense Feeling. Tent Endeavor was in the possession of Nashville yesterday. Philadelp! owned it this morning. The object of occupation in both instances was to bcom each city as the place to hold the international conven- tion In 1898. As the crowd began to gather @ group of good-looking young men and hetter-looking young ladies began to wel- come the arrivals with songs and shouts calculated to attract attention of the most favorable sovt to the claims of the Quaker elty. One of the glees the chorus of which seemed to cause special pleasure to the crowd was to the air of “Hallelujah.” The words, which were sung over and over again, were as follows: Come to Philadelphia in 1808. Come to Philadelphia in 1808. Come to Philadelphia in 1808. With the Y. P.S. C. E. Phila., Phila., Philadelphia. Phila., Phila., Philadelphia. Phila., Phila., Philadelphia. Philadelphia, 98. The other verses told what a royal wel- come would be given by Philadelphia in '98 to Endeavorers, and contained many other Pleasant promises. Of course, somebody Wanted to know “What's the matter with Philadelphia?” and equally of course it was emphatically declared she was all right by a large number of the large crowd Present. The praise service with which the regular meeting began, under direction of Mr. Percy 8. Foster of this city, brought the Philadelphia boom to a temporary stop, but the Quaker city representatives merely transferred their song and energy to the hymns given out. z Mrs. Clark's Address. The devotioral exercises, consisting of responsive Scripture reading and prayer, were led by Rev. Hugh 'T. Stevenson of Anacostia, und at their conclusion Rev. John T. Beckley of New York, who pre- sided over the meeting, in the absence of President W. R. Harper of Chicago, intro- duced Mrs. Francis E. Clark, the wife of the founder -of Christian Endeavor, and she was given the Chautauqua salute of wavirg handkerchiefs. Mrs. Clark smiling- ly acknowledged the compliment, and pro- ceeded in clear tones to read a paper on “The Mothers’ Society of Christian En- deavor.” It was as follows: The whole object and purpose of the others’ Society of Christian Endeavor is ally included in the first sentence of their pledge. “Trusting the Lord Jesus Christ for strength, I promise Him that I will strive to do wlatever He would have me do, especially that I will endeavor to bring the children to Christ and to train them for Him.” Surely Christian mothers every- where derire above all things to draw nearer Christ themselves, and to bring their children to Him and train them for His service. Ig there any better way ‘o do this than by banding themselves to- gether for this very purpose? There are now a few sccieties in our own and other lends which kave taken this name of “The Mothers’ Endeavor Society,” and are reg- ularly organized and pledged to do this work. There ought to be in every church, by whatever name it may be called, some or- ganization that will be in very truth a mothers’ endeavor society, an organization whose definite purpose should be not only rayer, tut prayer and work for the chil- ren. There are already in many of our churches maternal associations and ladies’ prayer meetings, having for their object, in part at least, to pray for the children. Why could not these organizations pledge themselves definitely to do this work in co-operation with the junior endeavor so- cfeties, even if they do not care to change their own name or have a more formal or- ganization? Plans for Helping the Children. Why should there not be in every ladies’ prayer meeting or maternal asso- ciation a junior committee, whose work should be to consult with the junior su- perintendent and report to the meeting any plans for helping the children? The junior superintendent might be invited to come once a ironth or once a quarter to the mothers’ meeting to give a five-minute talk about her work, its encouragements and perplexities and needs. It would be her oppcrtunity to appeal to the mothers for their help and counsel and prayer. Could it not be planned that occasionally the little junior secretary or president should attend the mothers’ meeting and give a report of the work? Perhaps the members of the sunshine committee or scme other committee might some time go together to the mothers’ meeting and tell how they are trying to do their part of the work, and ask for the prayers of the mothers. Perhaps, too, it might be possible to plan as often as once a year to have a union meeting of the mothers and the juniors, when both societies could learn more of each other’s work and be drawn into close sympathy. The meetings of the maternal associa- tion in many churches are held every month, and many heartfelt prayers are offered for the children, and yet the chil- dren themselves know little or nothing about it, and there is nothing done in the way of following up these prayers, and so the definite results are not what they might be. It sometimes happens, too, that in the course of time these mothers’ meetings come to be largely grandmothers’ meetings —— the younger mothers do not at- tend. It would be very helpful not only to the Junior societies, but to these mothers’ meet- ings, too, if they could in these ways or in other ways be more closely connected and work and plan together. By consulting to- gether new ways of working would be al- ways opening up to both societies. The mothers would find many ways of helping the children and the children would take great pleasure in the discovery that they, too, could help the mothers in many little ways. Suppose the mothers should decide that it would be well to send printed or written in.vitations to some of the younger mothers who do rot attend their meetings. Surely the sunshine committee would be glad to divide the work among themselves, and run on these errands. Do all the mothers of juniors in the church attend the ladies’ prayer meeting? If not, then it might be well to have some daintily printed cards of invitation to give out in the junior meeting that each boy or girl may take one to the mother at home. Visit the Junior Meetings. It would be well that quite often the mothers should send representatives from their meeting, not more than one or two at any one time, to visit the junior meet- ing, and often the junior superintendent would be glad to ask one of the mothers fcr a five-minute talk upon the topic of the day from a mother’s standpoint. Let the Mothers’ Society occasionally give a social to the juniors, and let it be the pleasantest soctal of all in the year. Let the mothers occasionally give the chil- dren a pleasant surprise in the shape of a new banner, or some new pledge cards or any other little thing the juniors may be needing, and a new Hnk bet them would be forged. ira If some such plans were put into. prac- tice should we not see, not only more chil- dren coming into the church and growing up to be earnest workers there, but also more mothers who were living really con- secrated lives, and who were themselves walking more carefully in the way they would see their children walk? Many existing maternal associations would have more real life and earnestness if they were better organized for definite work, with perhaps a lookout committee to bring in new members, and a prayer meet- ing committee to select topics and arrange leaders for the meetings, and a social com- mittee to arrange for an occasional sociable to which not only the mothers, but some- times the babies, should be invited, with a committee of juniors to entertain them. Something of this sort would put new life into many a dead-and-alive ladies’ prayer meeting, and if the mother were thus working with and for the children, it would be a real Mothers’ Endeavor Society, by whatever name it might be called. May God’s blessing rest upon all the mothers who are trying in any way to bring the children to Christ, and may this be a year when many children shali hear the voice of their Savior saying to them, “Come unto Me.” God grant that very many of them may indeed come to Him, and may begin in a simple childlike way to be about their Father's business. The Hampton Octet. Mrs. Clark’s address was closely follow- ed, particularly by the feminine portion of the audience, and at its conclusion Dr. Beckley announced that the Hampton Oc- tet would sing. This introduction was the forerunner of one of the most novel and entertaining features. Elght young colored men from the Hampton Institute came to the front of the platform, and, without ac- companiment, struck up in splendid unison, “Rise and Shine and Give God Glory.” The voices blended in perfect harmony, and the effect on the auditors was electrical. There was continued applause, which brought the singers back again, and they rendered a hymn pecullarly iustrative of the fervor of the religious colored people. The glee was the expressive “There's a Great Camp Meeting in the Promised Land.” Some of the verses were as follows, the first line being taken by the tenor: “Talk together children! Don't you get away. Talk together children! Don’t you get away. Talk together children! Don’t you get away. There's a great camp meeting in the promised land.” This repetition of the injunction, and the pleading of the chorus was finely rendered. The chorus was triumphant: “I'm goin’ to pray and never tire, I'm goin’ to pray and never tire, I'm goin’ to pray and never tire, There's a great camp meeting promised land!” The Sehool of Prayer. ‘The address by Rev. C. L. Work, D.D., of Cincinnati on “The School of Prayer” was listened to with close attention, and was frequently punctuated with applause. Dr. Work took his text from Luke, xi:1, “Lord, teach us to pray.” He said: Dr. Work’s Address. Luke 1i:1. “Lord, teach us to pray. Much of Carist’s time was spent in prayer. He never begun any special epoch of his ministry except by a long season of prayer. He prayed continually. He is the best exemplification of his own exhortation to pray without ceasing. Those whom I address are no doubt familiar with Christ's method in the matter of prayer. Near the close of the third year of Christ's ministry he was accosted by a lawyer who wanted to know who his neighbor was. In re- sponse to his question, Christ uttered the parable of the good Samaritan. Then “as they went” he entered into a certain vil- lage and a certain woman named Martha received him Into her house.” The elev- enth chapter of Luke begins in such a man- ner as to lead us to believe that this so- cial hour at the home of Martha and Mary was broken off for the purpose of prayer— “And it came to pass that as he was pray- ing in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, ‘Lord, teach us to pray.’ Christ immediately complied with the request, and the result was that model prayer, called the ‘‘Lord’s Prayer.” There are several things which indicate the existence of this school: (a) Christ’s conduct when he was asked by his disciples to teach them to pray. He immediately taught them the Lord’s Prayer. He thinks as much of a disciple now as then, and prayer is as important now as then. If it were important that the disciple know how to pray then it is equally as important now; just as much depends on prayer now as then. (b) Again, the work of the Spirit in connection with the matter of prayer leads us to believe that not all that God intends to do for his people in this matter has been done, and that nothing now remains to be done. We are directly taught that “the Spirit helpeth our infirmities.” Here is the present tense of the word help, leading us to understand that the work is a continu- ous one. It is interesting here to study the make-up of the Greek word translated “helpeth.” The word is “sunantilambane- tai;”’ it is a word made up of three others— “sun,” with; “anti,” opposite, and “lam- banetal,” to take hold of or to seize. The idea is that the Spirit takes hold of our burdens and crosses and duties as a helper opposite us, as if to look us in the face and lift the same burden with us. It is the same word used by Martha when she asked the Lord to bid Mary to come and help her with her household duties. You have only to look into the eighth chapter of Romans to see that this help here men- tioned is in reference to prayer, and you will also see that the “infirmities” here mentioned are infirmities in connection with prayer. The Sweet Singer Sank Mr. Sankey wes announced, and there was applause. He sung “The Ninety and Nine,” preceding it with a history of how in the the famous hymn, which has had such an enormous evangelizing effect on the world, was found on a train in Scotland in a frag- ment of a newspaper, and how the musio came to him when he sat down at the or- gan to sing it. At the conclusion of the hymn Mr. Sankey delivered a prayer. Joy of Soul Winning. “The Joy of Soul Winning’”’ was the sub- Ject to which Rev. W. F. Wilson of Toron- to, Ont., addressed himself. He is a man of remarkably handsome and commanding appearance, and an orator of great and eloquent power. He inspired his hearers to a high degree of enthusiasm, and held them from his first sentence to his last. His address followed. He said: Prayer and Muisc. When Mr. Wilson had concluded Dr, Beckley asked the audience to bend in (Continued on Page Fifteen.) W. J. BRYAN é See eg NOMINATED ee ee a The Young: Nebraskan Selected by the - Democratic Convention AS THE CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDEN How Popular Favor Was Turned Toward the “Dark Horse.” ENTHUSIASM OF DELEGATES CONVENTION HALL, CHICAGO, July 10. —William J. Bryan of Nebraska has just been nominated for President by the dem- ocratic national convention amid great en- thusiasm. William Jennings Bryan, the “boy orator of the Platte,” as his political friends and opponents long ago dubbed him, is a native of Illinois, born in Marion county, March 19, 1860. He was reared as a farmer's boy, and had abundant opportunity to attend the public schools, finally completing his educa- tion in Whipple Academy and Illinois Col- lege, at Jacksonville, taking the highest honors of the class of 1881. He then attend- ed the Union Law School in Chicago two years, at the same time studying in the office of the late Lyman Trumbull. He be- gan to practice law at Jacksonville, but re- moved in 1887 to Lincoln, Neb., where, in the firm of Talbott & Bryan, he entered on alucrative practice. He was elected to Con- gress in 1890, and served im the Fifty-first and Fifty-second Congresses, his majority being very slight in a large vote. In the interval since his retirement from Congress Mr. Bryan has stumped nearly every state in the south and west for the silver cause, and at the age of thirty-six is probably as well known to the rank and file of the demo- cratic party as any stategman of the times. He is a hard student, thorough, ambitious, persistent and ready. His oratory is fervid, clear, forceful and convincing. His speeches on the tariff in the Fifty-first Congress gave him a national reputation. He proved him- self a master of repartee,and @ most danger- ously ready opponent in # running debate. The man who asked’ him a question ex- pecting to confound him, was sure to be overcdme, tersely and conclusively, by his answer. His success in debate made him immensely popular with his fellow demo- crats. z prey CONVENTION GHALL, CHICAGO, July 10.—On fourth v@iiot Bi gained 59, Bland lost 7, McLean lost 7, Blackburn gained 1.

Pending the official announcement of the fourth ballot the Pennsylvania delegation retired to caucus, followed by the Illinois people. Other delegations were in caucus over the hall, and the managers of the several booms were at work to gain votes in the interim of the roll call. The official vote, after corrections, was: Bland, 241; Boles, 33; Matthews, 36; Mc- Lean, 46; Bryan, 280. Standards of various states are being taken to the Nebraska delegation.

Nineteen states and territories have taken their standards to the Nebraska delega- tion. Great cheering for Virginia as she marches to Bryan. ‘Tremendous cheering as Illinois joins the Procession. There is an attempt to take the Ohio standard out to join procession, but it is re- sisted. Illinois, Missouri, Ohio and Tennessee do not join the demonstration.

JNO CHOICE AT CHICAGO BEXTRA! Balloting in the Democratic National Convention, BLAND AND BRYAN ARE THE LEADERS Many of the Gold Delegates Refused to Cast Their Votes. ROW AMONG WISCONSIN MEN CHICAGO, July 10.—The populace began gathering early in the great Coliseum in anticipation of a renewal of the exciting incidents of yesterday in the democratic national convention, but the legions who were to do the fighting came slowly. It was after midnight when the fighting ceas- ed, and many of the leaders nad been in counsel all night. There were clans to be marshaled, broken lines to be reformed, 4 strategy to be devised, booms to be fostered ard booms to be checked. The leaders hardly got a wink of sleep, while the.rank and file of the delegates slept like weary, battle-battered soldiers on their arms. ‘They came back to the field today hardly refresked, but full of fight and resolution. |. The gold men took their places, such of them as came, sullenly and bitterly. The extent of the revolt in the east against the platform adopted yesterday ard the refusal of the eastern gold delega- tion and that of Wisconsin, headed by that scarred political veteran, Gen. Bragg, who leved Cleveland “for the enemies he had made,” came home with a realizing sense to the silver leaders this morning, and they planned with skill to prevent their followers from being carried away by their emotions. The action of the gold men made it vital that the man to carry the barner of the new creed should be able to rally to his back all the silver clements. The generals of the Bland hoom were de- termined to push the fighting. Delay they appreciated might be fatal. Rumors to the effect that the Bryan boom of yesterday had been engincered by the anti-Bland managers in the interest of the ultimate nomination of Teller fiew thick and fast, but the friends of “The Boy Orator of the Platte” said if such was the case the move- ment had gotten beyond the control of those who had manipulated it in the first interest, and would sweep the Nebraskan to the goal. There were but few demonstrations be- fore the convention was rapped to order. A big oil portrait of Boies, backed by a silk American flag, was paraded through the pit, but it created hardly a ripple. The leaders came in quietly. Mr. Whit- ney walked in with a group of the New York delegation, but it was announced that Senator Hill, Ike Achilles, sulked in his tent. New England delegations generally were thin. The battle had gone against them, and they appeared only to hesitate as to whether they should remain silent and mute when they were asked to partic- ipate in the nomination of a candidate on a platform to which they could not be recon- ciled, or to physically withdraw from the convention, At 10:57 a.m. Chairman White, who had recovered the use of his voice, stepped to the front of the stage. Running his eye for a couple of seconds over the acres of peo- ple, he glanced down to the battered dele- gations in the pit, and, with a heavy whack of the gavel, called the convention to order. With shuffling feet, the vast audience arose, and listened to Rev. Dr. Green, the chaplain, petition the White Throne for righteousness and peace. Pattinon’s Name Presented. Chairman White then announced that -he convention was still on the call of states for nominations. Thereupon, Mr. Harrity of Pennsylvania, chairman of the national committee, mounted his chair and placed in nomination ex-Governor Robert E. Pat- tison. This evidence that Pennsylvania would stand by the platform and partici- pate in the nomination drew a cry of de- light from the silver men, and Pattison’s rame got a swinging round of applause from the galleries. Mr. Mattingly of the District of Columbia seconded the nominaticn of “That peerless champion 2i free silver; that firm friend of the farmer and laborer, John R. McLean of Ohio.” Delegate Miller of Oregon added to the list of nominations the name of Syl- vester Pennoyer of Oregon. The names of Bland, Bryan, Boies, Blackburn, Matthews, McLean, Pattison and Pennoyer were be- fore the convention. The Roll Was Begu The 16 votes of Arkansas announced for Bland by Senator Berry gave the support- ers of the “great Missouri commoner,” as he designated him, an opportunity to yell, which they improved. California's vote was scattered, 6 for Blackburt, 2 Boies, 1 Campbell, 2 Bryan and 2 Matthews, and Blackburn's name was given a cheer, whiie the others failed of recognition. name of Connecticut was followed by a silence srt clerk passed on to Florida. After ite ittering--vote had been announced ex-Gov. Waller aroze and shouted that 2 and 2 only, of Connecticut's vote would be cast, and those for ex-Gov. Wm. E. Russell. John F. Salisbury of Delaware voted for Bryan and three others from the state for Pattison. Bryan's first cheer was given at the an- nouncement of Georgia's solid vote for him. The 48 votes of Hlinois for Bland were loudly cheered. Indiana and Jowa in succession cast their solid votes for their favorite sons, Mat- thews and Boies, respectively. Ex-Sen tor Martin of Kansas cast the solid vote of the sunflower state for “Missouri's great commoner, Richard Parke Bland. James of Kentucky delegation announced that the blue grass state cast her vote for “The scuth’s greatest democrat, Joe Blackburn of Kentucky.” Sputterings of applause reeted each of thesc announcements. uisiana votec for Bryan. Maine gave 5 votes for Bryan and 11 for Pattison. Delegate Hamiiton asked that Massa- chusetts be passed. Massachusetts Passed. Delegate O'Sullivan, one of the silver men in the delegation, shouted that the gold men of the delegation were away be- cause they did not intend to participate in the future proceedings of the convention. “That’s not true,” shouted several gold men in the delegation. The chairman appealed to the delegates not to atempt to inject debate into the roll call, and Massachusetts was passed. ‘The gold men in the Michigan delegation refused to vote. The silver votes divided as follows: Bryan, 7; Boies, 5, and Bland, 4. Delegate Stevenson, Don M. Dickinson's law partner, caused considerable delay by challenging the vote of the state, and then, with nine colleagues, declining to vote. Later he moved from gold delegation to delegation counseling them to refuse to vote. Mississippi's vote for Bryan and souri’s for Bland were cheered. Nebraska's announcement of sixteen votes for “the silver knight of the west, Wm. J. Bryan,” created great enthusiasm. New Hampshire's reply was that Delegate Doyle voted for Pattison, and the other seven delegates de- clined to vote, and the intelligence fell on a silent house. The First Sensation. It remained for New Jersey to stir the first really sensational passage. McDermott shouted in stentorian tones, “The state of New Jersey respectfully declines to vote. (Hisses.) The gold men in the gallertes at- tempted to drown the disapproval with their cheers, but were unable to do so. New York Bolts. New York was listened for as the crucial point of gold, on whose action the democ- racy of the east was depending for its key- note. Ex-Governor Flower said: “In view of the platform adopted by this convention, and of Its actions and proceed- ings, I am instructed by the New York dcle- gation to say that we will not participate in the selection of a candidate for President and Vice President; therefore, we decline te vote.” ‘The great body of New York's adherents in the galleries sent up a storm of approval, but other cries were heard of “Put ‘em out; put "em out!” Ohio cast forty-six votes under the unit rule for John R. McLean. Delegate Hold- ing of Cleveland challenged the vote, and the old row in the Ohio delegation, which has been the feature of so many national Christian Endeavor Stars.
