The annnal convention of the North Penn local union of Christian Endeavor Bccieties waa held in Doyleatown last Thuredey in the Presbyterian church. Tbe deiegatea from both Bucka and MontKomery counties were present, and all ofthe nineteen Bocietiee belongine to the nnion were represented. President G. W. Babcock, paator of the Lansdale Methodist Epiacopal church, presided. The address of welcome was made by the Rev. W. Hayes Moore, pastor of the Doylestown Presbyterian church, and President Babcock responded. At the afternoon session a paper on "Good Citizenship" was read by the Rev. Richard Montgomery, pastor of the Ashbourne Presbyterian church, in which he set forth the relation of the Christian Endeavor movement to poli¬ tics. Ue maintained that while the so¬ ciety was neither for nor against any political party as a party, societies should always place their love for morality be¬ fore their fealty to party. He was fol¬ lowed in the same line uv the kev. W. F. S. Nelson, of Ambler;"the Rev. H. 1. Nicholas, of Hartsville, and the Rev. Mr. Moore, of Doylestown. The Rev. J. H. .Haslem, of Norristown, president of the lichuylkill Valley union, spoke on "Christian Endea/or Seedtime and Har¬ vest," and the Rey. Dr. William Tracy, rector of Grace Memorial Reformed Epis¬ copal church, of Philadelphia, delivered an eloquent address on "Junior Work." The principal addresses at fhe evening session were made by Hon. Geo. D. Mc Creary and Rev. W. M. Paden, of Phila¬ delphia. The convention closed with a consecration service conducted by ex- State President Rev. Charles Roads. The following ofBcers were elected by the union for the ensuing year: Presi¬ dent, Rev.

Prices of Klectric Lighting Much haa been said concerning the prices charged in different cities and towns for electtic lighting. The figures vary greatly, in eome places the prices quoted being very low, while in others the charges have appeared to be high. We present below tbe schpdule of rates in use by the Doylestown Electric com¬ pany. The company has been in exis¬ tence two or three years. Laat year we understand it paid a dividend of 12j per cent. It will be interesting to note the figures and compare them with the rates charged by the Aiubler company, which are considerably below the Doylestown rates; COMMERCIAL RATES.

Wednesday evening, April 17, between 9 and 10 o'clock a fire broke out at Lu¬ kena & Verkes' stone crusher, sitnated in Plymouth township, just below Earn¬ est statio:^, on the Pennsylvania Schuylkill Valley railroad, and about two miles below Norristown. The buildings, which were built of frame, were entirely destroyed and the ma¬ chinery rendered useless. The buildinga are believed to have been set on fire, as dry leaves were piled in aeveral places abont the woo<len structure. The crnaher liad not been working for the past two weeks, owing to the machinery undergoing some nec¬ essary repairs. As the building was of frame and there was no water in the immediate vicinity, nothing could be done to check the progress of the flames. None of the fire companies at Norristown were called, as the flames had gained considerable head¬ way before being discovered. The loss on buildings and machinery will amount to nearly f 10,000. There is $7,000 in insurance on the building, etc., in the foUowing companies of which Hallman & Egbert are the agents: Roy¬ al of England, $2500; American of Phil¬ adelphia, $25C0; Lancashire of England, $2000.

Rex. of Flourtown, has donated to the Montgomery County Historical society Docket No. 1, of Thom¬ aa Livezey, a justice of the i)eace, and a member of llie well-known family of tbat name at Plymouth Meeting. He appears to have had jurisdiction in Whitemarsh, Abington, Upper Dublin, Springfield, and several adjoining town¬ ships. The docket commenced Dec. 27,1799, and covers a continuous period nf nearly twelve years, the last entry being 'Fiflh- rao. 25, 1812." The docket ia exceedingly weli kept, the writing being a splendid specimen of old-time penmanship when quill pens were in vogue. The docket appears to be composed of a series of small books,such as those in use fur copy¬ books in schools at that time, which were afterwards bound in rough fashion and placed in a thick paper cover. Jmtice Liver,ey, during the term cov¬ ered by this docket, married many cou¬ pled, bound out many apprentices, sold the unexpired terms of others, probably "Redemptioners; " held inquests, and attended to such other business as came within the duties of an official. The docket will lie rebound carefully by the recipients and placed with their otber arq'jiaitions where it can be exam¬ ined by ail who desire to do so. Tlie Old Bex I'roperty. The old Rex property in Flourtown is undergoing a great change since it bas come into the hands of St. Joseph's Con¬ vent, of Chestnut Hill. Tiie old barn, at least a hundred years old, and all oth¬ er buildings except tbe bcnse, will be demolished and otber new fine buildings will take ita place. Contractor Tourison, of Mt. Airy, bas the work. The barn will be one of the largest and finest in the county. There will be stabling for forty-five head of cattle. Tbe bouse will be painted and repaired. Mrs. Rex and daughter will remain and occnpy the front part for an indefi¬ nite time, the manager of the place oc¬ cupying the other part. The house con¬ tains fourteen rooms besides entries and storerooms. Theft of a Watch. Lawrence Donovan, of Jenkintown, was held under $500 bail Friday by Mag¬ istrate South, of Philadelphia, to answer at court the charge of stealing a gold watch from Miss Annie J. Coney, of that city. The watch, Miss Coney said, was the third prize in a newspaper contest for the most popular public school teacher, and was taken from her home in some unknown manner last week. Donovan, who was arrested while at¬ tempting to pawn the watch at Third and S}nth streets, claimed it had been given him by Miss Coney's brother. Mr. riahkllPs Big Bite. ESTATE HOTICE.

When within a iew feet of where I stood, tho stahv.Trt s.tv.igo, his eyes gleaming witli liiitrid. lifted his knife and sprang toward me. I le-iped for¬ ward to meet him and succeeded in gra-spiiig iho hand which held the weap¬ on, aud with a grip like a vi.so held to it. He clinched wilh mo, and a terrible struggle ensued. We fell to tho gronnd and rolle<i over and over in our desper¬ ate struggle for tho snprom.icy, yet I clung to his wri.st, for my life depended on preventiijg him from u.siug tbe knife. In our struggle I noted that we were nearing the brink of tho precipice, and I hoped we would go over, for death in that manner was preferable to l)eing slaughtered by a savage hand, and there was keen satisfaction iu tho thought that my enemy would die with mo. Nearer and nearer we rolled in onr fear¬ fnl struggle for the mastery, I endeav¬ oring to roll over tho brink, ho to pro- vent it, nntil at Li.st, to my great satis¬ faction, I felt the edge of tho cliff begin to crumble beneath mo, and down we went. Wo struck tho bottom heavily, and to my astonishment neither of us seemed to be greatly injured. I fell almost un¬ derneath him, and in a moment he sno- ceedcd iu getting mo on my back and sat astride of my prostrate form. He had dropped his knife in our fall, and seizing me by tho long hair near each ear began to boat my head .igainst the ground iu an endeavor to stun me into insensibility. Thump! thump! thump! my head was beaten against tho gronnd, aud au angry voice greeted my ears. "I'll teach you to grab mo that way and choke rae half to death (thump! thimp!) and theu roll out of lied with me. (Thump! thump!) What's the mat¬ ter with you? Are you crazy?" It was my wifo. She sat astride of me, and at almost every word gave my head a thump against the carpeted floor of our bedroom. It was all a hideous dream. In my desperation I had seized hor, and we nad a terrible struggle, finally falling out of bed upon tho floor.—Captain Jack Crawford iu Homo and Conntry. How to Serve Steak In a New Way. Take a porterhouse steak, which should be cnt 3 inches thick and well trimmed of bono and fat, and put it on tho broiler. Droil quickly over a hot fire and place it on a hot platter, spreading both sides of it with tho following mix¬ ture: A tablespoonful of melted butter, a half tablespoonful of salt and a half tablespoonful of whito pepper. On top of the steak lay 3 plantains which have been fried in butter. Tho plantains are the red bananas. Over this pour a half pint of bechamel sauce, and over the whole sprinkle a table.spoonf ul of grated horse radish. This will be found a deli- ciotis dish for a luncheon party. It has tho advantage of novelty. She Would Neither Paint nor Powder. "I positively will not use cosmetics," said a lady to the writer, "yet my com¬ plexion is so bad that it occasions me constant mortification. What can I do to get rid of these dreadful blotches?" ''Take Dr. I'ierce's Favorite Prescrip¬ tion," was iny prompt reply. "Your complexion indicates that you are suffer¬ ing from functional derangements. Re¬ move the cause of the blotches and your cheeks will soon wear the hue of health. The 'Favorite Prescription' is a w3nder- ful remedy for all diseases peculiar to your sex. Its proprietors guaratitee to return the money if it doea not give sat¬ isfaction. But it never fails. Try it." The lady followed my advice.and now her complexion is as clear as a babe's, and she enjoys belter health than she has for many years.

Erery Child, Ue Says, Is Born aa Actor, bot the Gift la In Moat Cases Soon Marred ity Self Coasclonsness—Karly Training mmA Ita Powerful Effect. "The ability tc express In voice and faee aud motion, the ideal which the mind conceires is the actor's talisman of success," said a well known inatract- or in one of the dramatic schools whan asked to defino the essential qnalifloa- tion of au aspirant for dramatic honors. "Kot to represent a character, bnt to be it, is what wins tho audience. Qreat earnestness counts, of course, and deli¬ cacy of conception, carefnl training, ex- pericnco, aud all that, but complete abandon to tho emotions of the moment is what sw.iy3 men's miuds. That it gouius! "Every child ia a bom actor," he went on, "and to provo that wo have only to watch the oxpression and move¬ ments of a littlo child when it is in • room by itself and ia unaware of speota- tors. It will be imitating in pantomime alternately tho persons and animals it knows or has seen. Enter the room and ask thu littlo ono to do that over for auntie or uncle, or whoever it may be, and immediately there is achanga Self consciousness has como in with the looker on, und tho child is constrained and shy. The grace of movement, tbe bright, animated gesture and inimitable expression aro goua As the child growa older thig constraint, thisropreasion, in- crea.ses, particularly in America, where, from babyhood, she is taught to disguise hor real feelings. ' You must uot laagb aloud, it isn't refined; you mnst walk quietly and sedately and not attract at¬ tention. ' "This is a sample of tbe lesson of lelf repression, inculcated line ujion line, precept upon precept, day after day, un¬ til the real natnre becomes walled in within the artificial ono. When that girl gets to be 20 or more^ sho has a yearning for thc stage. She feola that she cau portray some of the characters which so interest aud appeal to her. She enters a dramatic .<!chool; but, alaa, it is too late. Tho desire to act is there, and tho accurate conception, but the ar¬ tificial routine so instilled by precept aud practice has become inextricably interwoven with tho natural instinct, and it cannot be eradicated. She is in the shackles of self consci ausness. "My greatest find iu tho last year or two," continued tho speaker, "ia a young Pennsylvania girl who came to me with hor mother last season. 'My daughter has beeu educa:ed in Paris, and sho is mast ansious to go on the stag& She fecl.s tbat she can do some¬ thing iu that liuo and will not be con- t«utod until sho trie.s,' said the mother. I looked at tho girl, who sat quietly by, with rather an indifferent expression ou hor face, and was not prepared to find in her anything very promising. Sbe was about 17, very dark and quite good lookiug. I asked her to recite something. She sto<xl np aud began to repeat a poem about au Indian nurse. The nurse waa foster mother to a king's son, had nora- ed him at her breast along with her own child of tho same ago. In a revolution the mob came to kill the king's bod, and tho nurse, in loyalty to her aor- ereign, substituted her baby for the heir to the throne. Before the girl wjs half through with the story I had to stop her. Tho tears wero running down her cheeks, and I realized that my own eyes were moist. That girl is going to make a namo for herself. She seemed to acquire by intuition what other pupils wonld take mouths to learu. I attribute her ex¬ traordinary power of expression to ber having been brought up iu Paris, free and uncoustraiued in au atmosphere whero every oue is euthusiastio and ia not ashamed nf it, and where emotion is expressed naturally. "Aftor a brief iutcrval of instruction I placed her on the road where abe would como directly in contact with tbe technicalities of the business acd bave the advantage nf being with a good company. It will not be long before tbe publio bears from her. "It bas been my experience tbat tbe French, Italian, Spanish, Mexican, He¬ brew—any of thosonthem races—posaen this nameless abandonment, this per* sonal magnetism, as it were, in excess of any other nation," continuod tbe speaker. "And where it is found in an eminent degree in Americans they gen¬ erally have some strain of foreign blood. Amoricans mako unsurpassed character actors—that i.-:, whon wo wish to per¬ sonate juiner.s, ¦westerners. Now Eng- landers, faruiors, darkies, any of tbe various pha.se3 of typical Americim life, wo find amplo material right at hand. If, however, wo wi.sh to depict a draw¬ ing room scene with setting complete aud to the life, wo must cal' on a for¬ eign conutry for tho actors. It is a lam¬ entable fact thut, so far as the stage is concerned, wo mnst go to Englaud for our gentlemen. For some reason tbe leisure class in America, tho men of breeding aud culture, when choosing a profession, do uot select the stage. It may be that the calling of an actor ia not looked upon, on this side of the wa¬ ter, as sufficiently diguifled; but, be that as it may, of all the applicants for histrionic honors in this conntry only a few of them are recruited from the ranks of recognized goutlemen's sons. In England it is different There are num herd of younger sons there wbo have no money, who are debarred from going into trade on accouut of the fam¬ ily escutcheon, who havo uot tho men¬ tal ability to b.-come doctors aud law¬ yers, aud to whom the stage offers a practical and interesting solution of tbe dilemma. They make first class actors for the parts wo need, because they pos¬ sess tho ono indi.spen.s.ible qualification of having come straight from tho draw¬ ing room, bringing their faultless man¬ ners with thnm. "—New York Sun. ilow to Send Fruit Long Dbtancca. Ventilation of packages in whicb fruit is packed for shipping serres no purpose except to allow the escape of surplus moisture. (Otherwise tho contact with fresh nir every moment hastens its decay all tho more. The important point in parking frnit is to see that it is dry on the outside as it can be made. Tben wrap each specimen in a little cotton, which will servo both to exclude air and to ahi^orb nny moisture tbat the fruit will naturally exhale. This waa the way that strawberries were success¬ fully sliippefl tothe World's fair at Chi¬ cago last suniinor.

How to Select CartaiiM. In choosing curtains it is well to re¬ member that a bright yellow fabric will light up a north room as nothing else can. Curtains in a dull shade of ligbt green are most suitable for a room fur¬ nished in rose color or yellow, as ag^reen ligbt will softeu the bright Uutings and is always pleasaut to the eye.

Our phenomenalsuccess has re¬ quired the erection of a new skylight, the largest and be.st in this city, which will be used in addition to our former light, so that we can ac¬ complish A QUICKER DELIVERV OF ORDERS.
For large groups, no other studio is so well fitted as ours, and the new skylight enables us to offer superior inducemeuts to Committees representing Colleges, Schools, etc.
The superiority of the Gilbert & Bacon groups,| and individual portraits, photagraphs and pastels, has been universally recognized dur¬ ing the past twenty years. All negatives made by Gilbert & Bacon are now at our gallery, 1030 Chestnut street.
