THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 30, 1897. PREPARING FOR THE CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR CONVENTION CHICAGO. 111, June 29.—Christian En- deavorers by the thousands are pouring in from the East on their way to San Francisco.. If the tidal wave continues it will be with the greatest difficulty that the railroads will be abie to Lanale all the people. Fully 10,000 delegates to the Christian Endeavor meeting at San Francisco and others tsking advantage of the lower rates for a triv to the coast departed from Chicago to-day over the dif roads leading west. Delegates and excursion- ists poured into the city from the East and Bouth all day. The lergest delega- tion was from Pennsylvania. It came over the Pennsylvania ro and was di- vided into two sections. here were 1200 delegates represe banner Chris- tian Endeavor State.

The matter of admission to the meet- ings of the convention is misundersiood by a great many persons, who have an dea that an sdmission fee is to be charged. This is not the case. Kvery session of the convention is free to all who care to at- | tend, the only restriction being that dele- gates who, in many cases, have traveled | hundreds or thousands of miles to attend the convention are given the preference and are admitted earlier than the general public. At the time of opening the serv- | ices, however, the doors are thrown open and any whe wish may enter. The only meeting of any sort at which an admission fee will be charged is the concert to be given by the concert chorus in the Mechanics’ Pavilion on Tuesday evening, July 6. This concert, while for the benefit of the convention fund, is not strictly one of the convention sessions. The admission to this is only 60 cents, for which a ticker may be purchased ad- mitting the holder to both the afternoon rebearsal and the evening concert. In this way two members of a family can en- joy the concert for the price of a single ad- mission. The tickets are in the hands of the members of local Christian Endeaver societies, for sale, and may also be had at Dodge’s, 112 Post street | It would seem that many of our bus | ness men who have subscrived little or nothing to the convention fund directly, | Kenyon, Helena; Rev. Word has been received that Dr. Russell Conwell of Philadelphia, who was ex- pected to be one of the star speakers at the convention, will be unable to attend on account of ill health. The doctor has almo-t broken down from overwork, and at the imperative advice of his physi- cian he has gone to his New England farm to rest and recuperate. His far-famed eloquence will be greatly missed atthe convention. To aid strangers in finding their way about the City the Superintendent of Streets has instructed property-owners on street corners to display the names of the streets on their respective buildings. Many persons have already complied with this request. The following are expected from Mon- tana: Rev. W. M. Boardman, Dear Lodge; Rev. 0. C. ( Missoula; J. S.

We are preparing for about 500 sleeping-cars out of Ogden. ““At ten or twelve different places be- tween Ogden and Sacramento we are pre- paring to spread long tables at the sides of the tracks, in order to accommodate the visitors. “In many places the eating-houses are not large enough to accommodate those who are to come, and cousequently these tables are being arranged in the open air. The people can go there and get coffee and sandw.ches and cold meats and evervthing of that sort. “‘Be-ides these arrangements our dining- cars will be sent to Terrace, Nevada, and as people are met will be brought back some distance, the idea being to work the cars biack and forth and thus accommo- %me &s many people in that way as possi- le. *‘Over at the Oakland mole we are put- ting down some extra tracks and clearing out old cars that we have no particular tee on pulvit supply One is Rev.

He is a pulpit orator of ability and is the Bishop who lately acquired a new fame by successfully establishing “‘temperance saloons” in Chicago, serving | root beer, coffee, etc., amid atiractive surroundings. He will preach at Calvary Charch in the evening and probably at the Central M. E. Church in the morning. Rev.

The coiored denominations of the various affiliating ones will be ablv repre- sented by distinguished men who wiil occupy the pulpits of the various congre- gations of their people kLere, all of which have flourishing Caristian Endeavor so- cieties. One of these wili be Bishop Waters of New Jersey, one of the most eloguent of the colored pulpit orators of the day, Bishop Arnett of Wilberforce, Ohio, and Bishop Derrick of New York City. There will be many laymen, too, who have become widely known in the reli- gious world. Among them will be Charles T. Studd, a famous London evangelist and Bible teacher, and C. Hunt of Min- neapolis, who has done notable work in thy me line. These are but a few whose presence is now certainly counted upon, ana there will be others equally strong, eloquent and well known. There will be here over a hundred more ministers than there will be pulpits to be sup- plied. Arrangements are being made with little or no refereuce to denom- inational creeds, and net the least note- worthy and siznificant feature of the great convention to many will be the sinking of creeds and the nnion of hearts and efforts on the broad lines of simple Christian lifa, e Endeavorers’ Plans.

Tuis is in substance what all the repre- sentatives of leading traffic lines are say- ing. Manager Fillmore of the Southern Pa- cific gave a lot of interesting information Be Here. Many interesting men of National reputation and men who have achieved pro- minence and leadership in various fields of religious and denominational effort will attend the great Christian Endeavor Con- vention. They will be heard in various pulpits on Sunday, July 11, as well as during the convention proceedings, and the sermons preached in this City and Oakland on the Sabbath mentioned will be notable ones by notabie men. It is too early to give a complete roster of strong men who will be here a few days hence, because definite word about the coming of many expected ones has not yet zome, but an offhand mention of some whose preseace is quite certain may be given, largely on the knowledge of Rev.

Important Appointments Made by the President for the Consular Service. Rounsevelle Wildman, Edlor of the Overland Monthly, to Be Sent to Hongkong. WASHINGTON, D.

Wildman's Prosprcts for Appointment Were Not Considered Bright. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 29.—The appointmment of Rounsevelle Wildman as Consul to Hon-kong was somewhat of a surprise. Mr. Wildman was in Wash- ington several weeks ago and it was known that he was ap applicant for a consulship, but his prospects were not considered bright. His principal backer was Senator Stewart, who, as a stanch silver man and a supporter ot Bryan as against McKinley. was supposed to have | but little influence with the President. Mr. Wildman married Miss Letitia Aldrich, 8 mece of Senator Stewart, five or six years ago, and the wedding was celebrated at Senator Stewart’s residence in Washington. As a wedding gift Presi. dent Harrison appointed him as Consul to Louis A. Dent of rst Twenty-first | Infantry, to be captain; Second Lieuten- | Sineapore. The appointment was credited | to Idaho, where Mr. Wildman had been | editing & newspaper. Afterward he be- | came publisher and editor of the Overland | Monthly in San Francisco. His nomina- tion to-day is therefore accredited to Cali- | fornia and disposes of Mr. Ragsdale’s | chances. Mr. Ragsdale was indorsed by the California delegation as Consul to Hon xong, but it was stated in last Tues- | day’s CALL that he would not get the cov- | eted place. Mr. Wildman is regarded | highly in W | is in every way well fitted for his new post. PUNCTURE IN BICYCLE PRICES. by Reducing Its High-Grade $100 Cowmbras to $75.

The Government to Continue a Service Dropped by This State. An Interesting Letter to Senator Perkins From the Weather Bureau Chief. WASHINGTON, D. C, June 29.— Through the efforts of Senator Perkins the farmers and merchants of California will continue to receive the crop and climatological reports which the action of Governor Budda has prevented the State Printing Office from issuing. The Senator pointed out to Professor Moore, head of the Weather Bureau, the necessity for such reports, and the losses that would be liable to occur were they no longer avail- able. Notitication that the Government will continue the publication of the re- ports was received by Senator Perkins to- day in the following letter: My Dear Senator: In reforence to the failure of the appropriation for printing in the State of California and the consequent suspension of the publication of the weekly crop report and monthly climatological bulletin of Cali- fornis, which have been maintained in co- operation with the Weather Bureau of the Department of Agriculture, I have the honor to state that I neartily agree with you In your desire to have these valuable publications continued in the interest of the agriculture and horticultuze of your great Siate. With the limited appropriation for the sup- port of the weather service it wagdifficult for the Weather Bureau to assume the additional obligation of the entire maintenance of the climate and crop service of California, but in response to your Wishes the bureau has ar- ranged to bear the expense of publication and to maintain the full service in your State with- out the ussistance of the State appropriation for printing. The headquarters of the service have been transferred to San Francisco, material purchased and shipped and addi- tional assistance employed, 50 that the July issues of the climate and crop service will appear in a better form than heretofore. Notwithstanding the cessation of State co- operation there will be no abridgment of this service. In fact, the plans now made will, I believe, result in a material improvement of the scope aud character of the publications hereinbefore referred to. The great agricul- tural, horticultural and industrial interests of ifornia require not only that the weekly crop report receive extensive circulation through the State, but that the instrumental measurements showing the wonderful diver- #ity of climate presented by this region should be collected and systematically published and circulated and placed on file at the headquar- ters of the climate and crop services of all other States, where the information may be given to all inquirers. Assuring you that you shall have my best endeavor to mske the weather service useful to your people, I am very truly years, WILLIS L. MOORE, Chief of Bureau, Choynski Wants to Meet McCoy. NEW YORK, N. Y., June 29.—Joe Choynski is due 1 town to-morrow and says that when he gets nere he will meet Kid McCoy and talk over the prospects question. for a match. | NEW TO-DAY — CLOTHING.
