W. B. X (BICE , Editor. and Proprietor. THE ENDEAVORERS. The annual report of John Willis Baer was read at 11.80 last Thnraday morning before the Christian Endeavor Conven- tion ab Boston. The report was read sim- ultaneously by Secretary Baer in Me- chanics' building, by Rev. John Barstow, Medford, Mass., in tent Williston, and by J. E. Chesetnan, Cleveland, Ohio, in tent Endeavor. The report opens se follows ; Every useful wheel must have its hub. Livery bub, to be useful, should have its wheel. Figuratively speaking, Christian Endeavor Is a useful wheel ; certainly Boston is the hub. As we era in the hub, let us.turn the wheel upon its axis, and from the hub view its revolutions. Its circumference equals that of the globe, and its spokes number thousands upon thousands. Each year the circumference of the Christian Endeavor wheel widens ; each year thousands of spokes are added. Last year our wheel was strengthened by 7,750 new societies for "spokes," (if you please.) This is the largest increase for any one year since the "wheel" nommen• ced revolving, fourteen years ago. "Spoke" after "spoke" passes our vision rapidly in this whirl of inspection ; in all, 41,229. Of these 4,712 are from other lands, the United Kingdom beading the list with 9,645, which figure includes 180 from Wales, 112 from Scotland and 53 from Ireland. Australia now has not less than 1,599 ; Africa, 30 ; China, 32 ; France, 64 ; India, 117 ; Japan, 59 ; xi -; Turks Meda asoar 93 • Mexico, 25 39 ;' West India Islands, 63 ; and so on, till every country is represented, esus five, Italy, Russia, Iceland, Sweden and Greene. And now the "spokes" from the DOMINI02 OP CANADA come into view. Ontario, with her re- markable prowth of last year, leads, with 1.995 ; Nova Scotia, 888 ; Quebeo, 264 ; New Brunswick. 152 ; Manitoba, 156 ; Prince Edward Island, 02 ; Asainiboia, 53 ; British Columbia, 30 ; Alberta, 15 ; Saskatchewan, 5 ; in all, counting 5 in Newfoundland, 3,105, an increase of 1,228 during the past year. The report then refers to the number of junior societies, of which there are said to be 8,858 in the United States, 339 in Canada ; and 234 from other lands, making in all 0,122 junior societies, with a membership of 340,000. Pennsylvania still leads the juniors with 1,028 ; New York not very far behind, with 920 ; Illinois next, with 746 ; Ohio, 623 ; Indiana, 470 ; Calffor- nfa, 414. The report continues : And now we have counted the "spokes" as they have swept by our vision. A total of 41,229 societies, with skins of varying color, of which 480 are red, 2,300 are yel- low, 109,490 are bleak, and 2,348,560 are while ; in all a great interraoiaf brother- hood of 2,473,740. CO31Ea, TO THE NORTHWEST. The banner for the greatest propor- tionate increase in the total number of societies during the year that was given to Oklahoma, then to Manitoba, then to New Mexico, and wbicb has been in the cnetody of West Virgieia during the last year, will now pass across the imaginary line for the coming year into the hauds of our comrades in Asainiboia. Pennsylvania fret captured the "badge banner," which is awarded each year for the greatest absolute gain. Ontario took it the next year, and then returned it to the Keystone State. Pennsylvania last year was obliged to give it up to England, where it has been displayed this year. It is in Boston to -day, and our honored guest who brought it from England's shores can proudly return with the ban- ner, for none of the States have been able to equal the excellent record of the moth- er country. Ontario and Pennsylvania, in the order named, were not so very far behind, however. For the second time this banner crosses the briny deep. Guard it well ; wo intend to oaptnre it for this aide another year. There etre other banners, however, to he awarded --the junior badge banners. Pennsylvania carried two junior banners from our last convention -one for the largest total number of junior societies, the other for the largest gain in one year. Pennsylvania is again entitled to both of these banners. The junior banner for the largest proportionate gain in number i of eooieties was delivered last year 'by the District of Columbia to Delaware. Del. aware this year must pass her banner to Asainiboia, for that Province has sur- passed the reoord of all others, Shall Asainiboia hold two banners another year 7 When wo gather next year we shall know. en1 CEURC005 ESIHRAOE1. The denominational representation in the sooiety in Canada is given as follows: The Methodists lead with 1,057 young people's societies and 122 junior societies, most of the societies known as Epworth Leagues of Christian Endeavor ; Cana. Sian Presbyterians are next, with 079 young people's societies and 108 junior societies ; Baptiste next, with 160 young people's societies and 28 junior soofeties ; Congregationalists next, with 122 young people's societies and 30 junior Oociotles. The report also statee that after careful gathering of statistics and information, and from advice reoeived from the repre- sentatives of miesionary boards, home and foreign, we find that the eooieties in the United Staten and Canada slave sen, tributed not leas than 11426,000 for mie. alone 55 home and abroad,. Tent IOndeavot;, on Roston Comm05, was tilled to its utmost capacity Thurs- day afternoon at the first service held by the Endoavorers under this lamellae oanpas. There were nearly 11,000 per, sena in attendance, and it wee a gather- tug bubbling over with iaepiration, The interior of the tent was tastefully deoor. Med, Rev, Wolin T. Booltloy, D.

Presidio officers then ask ed all the ministers and. missionaries and the . wives to rise and oome to the plat. form while "I will sing the wondrous story" was being sung, and some 150 00- sponded. Then was sung the "Hymn of Welcome," written for the o0oas1on by Rev. 5..1', Smith, D, D., author of "Am- erica," the audisnoe rising and joining with the chorus. After several weloom• ing addresses "Amerioa" was sung, fol- lowed by "God Save the Queen,' and "Blest be the tie that binds us." Service's in tent Williston opened with the expeobed large audience. Rev. Way- land Hoyt, D, D., of Minneapolis, presid- ed, and the devotional exeroieea were led by Rev. Asher Anderson, of Meriden, Conn. A gavel was presented to the meeting, the head of which was made from the wood of one of the pews of the Old South meeting house, and the handle from one of the gallery rails of old Fan. evil Hall, also a Meek from the old State House. The Bymn of Welcome" was alao sung here. After the singing of "Amorioa" responses to the words of welcome were made by visiting Christian Endaavorers as follows: Rev. W.I. Page, D.

A sixteen -foot alligator crawled out of the St. John's River at the foot of Main 'St., Jacksonville, Fla., one day last week and loisnrely waddled up the street. to- wards the centre of the city. Main st, is one of the principal streets in Jaokson• ville and the appearance of the alligator created a great deal of consternation among the hundreds of people there, Every man with a pistol started shoot- ing at the reptile, but the bullets didn't worry it a little bit. After promenading four blocks, and squelching with his tail a too familiar newsboy, it received a wound from a rifle which caused it to slow up a little. Then it started up a leaning telegraph pole, thus exposing its vulnerable parts, and was soon shot to death. Nine big alligators lave been killed recently at the foot of Main street but this is the first one that has ventured up town.
