Christian Endeavor ;Host.
Huron County Won The Banner.
Hamilton, Oot. 13. —Yesterday's ses-
sions of the Endeavor convention in',
eluded the election of officers and ad-
dresses by suoh noted speakers as Rev.
Francis Clark of Boston and Rev. G. W.
Kirkby of Brantford, but the biggist
thing of all was the junior rally at the
Armory. There wore some 4000 seats in
the hall, but; as in Innumerable in-
stances, little girls held 4 -year-old sailor
dressed brothers on their laps, it was
almost impossible to get a census. The
children bad everything their own way,
and even the pastors had to olimb down
from the platform to seats below. t1
THE YOUNGSTERS IN CHARGE.
Miss Clara Tufford of Hamilton, a
young lady of about 16, was chairman,
and looked very wise in her golden
glasses. There were some rousing
choruses, and then Miss Ruby Chillman,
a pretty little lady in blue, with two
shinging "pigtails" tied; in yellow rib-
bons, gave an address of welcome to the
homes of Hamilton. In her musical
way she said a lot of nioe things about
the teachers, and expressed the roseate
theology that the Almighty had been
keeping a special eye on the convention
and seen that all should go well.
GROWTH OF THE SOCIETY.
Devotional exercises began at 8.30
and at 9.30 Secretary Thomas Morris of
Hamilton told what he knew of the
financial condition of the society.

WILL PAY THEIR OWN WAY.
The motion by Rev. Mr. Henderson
of Heneall and Miss Beatty that in
future all Endeavorers pay their own
way, instead of being billeted, was par-
ried unanimously.
REV.IELLIOTT ROWE PRESIDENT.
Endeavorers having come to the con-
clusion that they couldn't trust the
chief leadership to a better man than
the lecturer on " Christian Sociology,"
elected Mr. Elliott S. Rowe of Toronto
president.
ELECTION OF OFFICERS.
The list of officers for 1899 is : Presi-
dent, Rev. Elliott S. Rowe of Toronto;
vice-president, Rev. J. F. Barker, Ham-
ilton; Mr. C. J. Atkinson, Toronto; Mr.
T. Morris, jr. Hamiton; Rev. J. S. Hen -
salt; Secretary, A. T. Cooper, Clinton;
treasurer, W. J. Doherty, London; edi.
tor, Rev. J. S. Conning, Caledonia;
junior superintendent, Miss L. Wiggins;
councillors, Rev. Dr. Dickson, Galt;
J. N. Dales, Kington, and S. John Dun-
can Clark, Toronto.
AN ENORMOUS CROWD.
There never was such a orowd at the
Drill Hall as gathered tonight at the
public Endeavor meeting. Upwards of
5,000 people got admittance, and then
the doors were closed. Rev. Mr.
Rowe made is first speech as president,
and was voted a great success.
Addresses were also delivered by N.
W. Hoyles, Q.C., of Toronto, and Rev.
Francis Clark, D. D. The song service,
led by W. F. Robinson, was grand. or
The presentation of banners stirred
up the enthusiasm of the audienoe to a
general election pitoh. Huron county
got the first prize banner for the largest
number of reports from societies, affili-
ated and unaffiliated. The other lucky
winners of honor were Ontario county
and North Wellington.
MiSS WIGGINS 'RESIGNED.
Mise Wiggins, Provinpial Junior Sup-
erintendent, paused a sensation by rer
singing. Her place is taken by Mies
Whitworth of St, Mary's.
Rev. Dr. Clark of Boston got besides
the cheers of the house five photos of
the committee of 1898 and the presiti
dent of the local union,
To show that they hadn't shouted
away all their energy, the convention
decided to petition the Minister of
Militia to do away t$ith all canteens.
Another resolution Put bicyclists into

Montreal gets the convention of 1809,
EntkuszasM Over the Colored
People.
One of the most gratifying Inoidents
of the Spanish war has been the en-
thusiasm that the colored regiments
of the ropier army have aroused
throughout the United States. Their
fighting at Santiago was magnificent.
The negro soldiers showed excellent
discipline, the highest qualities of per-
son& bravery, very superior physical
endurance, unfailing good temper, and
the most generous disposition toward
all comrades in arms, whether white
or blaok. Roosevelt's Rough Riders
have come back singing the praises of
the colored troops. There is not a dis-
senting voice in the chorus of praise.
It has been remarked with frequency
and with justice that one of the best re-
sults of the war has been the final ef-
facing of all lingering sectional pre%
judice8 between the North and the
South. General Wheeler, of Confeder-
ate fame, Domes out of the Cuban cam-
paign one of our most popular national
heroes. The South is as proud of
Roosevelt as the North is proud of
Hobson. It is further to be remarked,
however, that the laurels won by the
oolored troops must also have a pro%
found effect in helping to solve the
race question. Men who can fight for
their country as did these colored
troops ought to have their full share of
gratitude and honor. If it should fall
to our lot to,administer the Philippines1
it might well turn out that we coulu
find a large field there in civil as well
as military work for young negro Am-
ericans of approved qualities. It is at
least admitted by every one that the
colored troops oan stand the Cuban and
the Philippine climate much better
than our white troops. We may also
do well to enlist many recruits from
experienced material in Cuba and in
the Philippines, where thousands of
men who have served under Spanish or
insurgent flags would be gled to wear
the uniform of Uncle Sam in a terri-
torial military police.—From "The Pro
grass of the World," in the American

Toronto. Live Stock Market.
Toronto, Oot. 14.—We had a total of
60 Ioads on the market to -day. Yester-
day's supply of nearly 50 lbads was all
sold out. In the two days we had close
on five thousand hogs Dome in; the
oattle consisted largely of stockers,
which --for some not very apparent rea-
son—were selling a little higher than
before. Cattle generally was weak; it
all sold, but at figures which the sellers
were not inclined to talk about. What
little good stuff we had here was in de,
mend, and fetched all it was worth.
The wonder is that considering the
weather and the filthy state of the mar-
ket, any business is done iu iji at all;
the yards this morning were one mass of
filth, through which people waded ankle
deep who desired to do business. No
fault attaohed to the market attendants
who were doing their extra best to
"clean things up," but it is impossible
to move a quagmire in a few minutes or
mop up a sea of slush with a broom.
On occasions like this naturally many
buyers avoid suoh a market, and many
more who have to come olear out as
soon as possible. In these few remarks
we are only voicing the general and loud
complaints which were universal among
persons doing business in the western
cattle yards -to day.
Export cattle sold slowly, but ultim-
ately all sold. Prices ranged from $4
to $4.25, and for very ohoioe $4.40 was
given. A lot of selections was reported
to have fetched $4.50.
To say that butcher cattle was dull at
from 3 to 4o. "according to quality,"
would be to give the whole story away in
too few words. A few lots of choice
cattle at 4o. (usually with a small rebate
