The Evangelistic Association of New England met on the 10th of May, in the Park Street Congregational Church, Boston. The sessions were continued through two days. Mam' evangelists who have been employed or'aided by the Association were present, a considerable
number of whom delivered earnest and telling addresses. One session was given to the woman's auxiliary of the Association and was addressed by Mrs. Howard L. Por
ter and Mrs. Joseph Cook. One of the most interesting features of the meeting was the presence and addresses of Rabbi Warzawiak, a converted Russian JewT, who in
two years has preached the gospel to over 50,000 Jews in
New York city and has succeeded in winning many hundreds of them to Christ. The story of his conver
sion, of his persecution, and of the Lord's leading him into his work, reminds one in many ways of the marvel lous story of the apostle Paul.
This New England Evangelistic Association, formed
only a few years ago, has grown rapidly in membership
and resources. The first year $1000 were spent. The last year more than $10,000 have been expended. Seven different denominations are represented in the Asso
ciation. Its object is to carry the gospel to those who are
neglected, in the streets, in school-houses and all other
places.
GRANITE CUTTERS' STRIKE AND LOCK-OUT.
New England was, during May, the scene of an exten sive strike and lock-out among the quarry-men, stone
cutters, etc. The essence of the difficulty was whether the contracts should be made with the workmen at the first of May each year, when work is plenty and the employees can largely dictate their own terms, or at the first of Jan
uary, when work is slack and the employers can have it
nearly their own way. Reason and prudence have prevailed more and more of late years in such labor troubles as
this, and doubtless will in this case, though we go to press too early to know the outcome.
