Pittaburg, May 25.- The session oí the North American Baptist May anniversaries, which have been going on in the Fourth Avenue Baptist church oí this city since May 17, siegan at 10 o'cloek Tuesday morning. The delegates in attendanee say that anniversaries just held have been the most profitable and enthusiastic of any held for years. Before the meeting was formally opened all foreign missionaries, with one exception, were invited to seats on the platform. The exception was Rev. W. H.Cossum of China, whoMonday caused a sensation by his remarks on John D. Rockefeller. Whether the omission was accidental or intentional i's not known. Mr. Cossum occupied a seat close to the front, and there was rather a set expression on his face. After devotional exercises, Rev. H. P. Coehrane of Burmah and W. H. Leslie, M. D., of the African mission, gave interesting accounts of the mission work in their respective flelds.
