The Christian Endeavor bociety is the largest in this city. Scott F. Hershey was fstrr. on a farm near the village of Colburn. Ind., fortv- four years age. He became a pastor in Northern Indiana alter leaving the semi nary, going to his Inst service in a mini- boat. Dr. Hershey will prolong his visit to San Francisco until the Christian En deavor Convention there, and lie will un doubtedly figure prominently at that meeting, as he is not only a prominent Eastern divine, but an able orator. It is not surprising tiiat a genius like Joaquin Miller should suddenly appear and attract attention on account ot Ins strange backgrounds, rich coloring, gorg eous descriptions and gigantic scenery. Nature and Burns and Byron and Swin burne were his masters; ami he learned from them a certain wild freedom and pas sion pt song that have enriched his poems with truthfulness and an almost cloying sweetness of rhythm and rhyme.

Ella Higginson, and many others have caught and fixed the brightest tints of the western sunset, and sung sweet mel odies along the golden shores of the Pa cific; but among the first of the western poets, and superior to them all, is Oregon’s adopted son. Joaquin Miller, lie is ot earth’s first blood, but. has seen alite of sorrow and disappointment. He has strug gled with poverty and unfavorable circum stances, yet through all he has been true to his own land. He has wooed his muse, and tuned his lyre across the great waters; but he sang of his boyhood scenes, of the Pacific coast, its great rivers, mountains and men. and has been true to them ail. He poetized the grandeur of our land so nobly as to electrify all Europe, the swell ing notes of his praise echoing ami re echoing until they have reached our ears from across the Atlantic.—Prof. J.
