Ceremonies on Gettysburg Field Marked Beginning of Beautiful Custom 1851 1888 General Philip H. Sheridan, great cavalry leader, who lives in that famous ride at Winchester, turning defeat into victory. VOL. 21. NO. 21. FIRST MEMORI Ceremonies on Gettysburg of Beau On the field of Gettysburg there is a spot between the original cemetery laid out for Union dead and Round Top, marked with many monuments and mounted cannon, which is known as the "high water mark" of the battle. It is also appropriately known as the "high water mark of the rebellion." Here a few of Pickett's soldiers reached the Union line and pierced it. There they fell while their comrades or those left of them, slowly retreated through a fire which it was beyond human power to face and withstand. Back with them went the hope of the confederacy. The news from Gettysburg and Vicksburg reached the country, North and South, on the same day, July 4, 1863, was to the North and South what that pause is to two wrestlers when one has secured the fatal hold which the other knows he cannot break. When Vicksburg fell and Lee set out on his bitter retreat from his second unsuccessful invasion of the North, the outcome of the civil war was decided. For this alone the stretch of fields and hills and woodland that lies behind the sleepy little Pennsylvania town of Gettysburg will be memorable to the eyes of Americans for all time to come. It interests the student of history for the same reason. Gettysburg will have its place on the page with Marathon, Tours, Orleans, Lutzen, Yorktown and Waterloo, when Shiloh and Bull Run and Malvern Hill shall have been forgotten. Many a battlefield that is of supreme importance to the historian, 1851 General Philip H. Sheridan, great ous ride at Winchester, that is honored with reverence by the patriot, is of little or no interest to the soldier. Here again Gettysburg is fortunate in its attraction, in its claim to celebrity. It was the climax in the offensive operations of Robert E. Lee, and where military tactics are studied there will Lee's career be conned alike by the expert, the gray-haired tactician, the subaltern, ambitions of promotion and the cadet seeking his shoulder-straps. Gettysburg, like Waterloo, is impossible of repetition at the close ranges at which both were fought. But the general strategy of one field is still of as much importance as the other—the flanking, the massing of artillery, the protection of line of communication, the use or misuse of cavalry, the preparations of means for retreat. But Getsyburg also appeals with the same strength to the average visitor who knows nothing of strategy, and whose familiarity with history has lapsed with the distance in years that lies between him and the dog-eared pages of his school books. It is all so plainly writ, in location, in natural outline of the smiling countryside, in monumentals and marking guns, that he who runs may read. Roughly, Gettysburg is a letter H, with opposing lines parallel and the course of Pickett's charge on the third day forming the crossbar. The Round Tops and Gettysburg town are at opposite ends. The Emmitsburg road, on which Buford with his cavalry came cautiously scouting along toward the town on the last day of June, lies between the bars of the letter and parallel with them. The Chambersburg road, along which the confederates were feeling their way at the same time, bends around what was afterward the confederate left to enter Gettysburg. Because those columns met there was a battle here, for each side hurried up its strength to meet the other when their leaders learned that the feeler columns had met and touched. This was on July 1, and because Gen. Lee's forces hurried up faster than did Gen. Meade's it was an unfortunate day for the Union troops. They had first occupied Seminary Ridge, which afterwards became the confederate position, and they retreated across the valley to Cemetery hill and a line parallel with it, which they continued to hold. Gen. Reynolds was killed in this first day's fighting, and was blamed for its failure until the circumstances were better understood. Gen. Hancock hurried forward for that purpose, took command on Reynolds' death, and rallied the retreating Union troops. During the night, while Meade's army was coming up, corps by corps, Gen. Warren, the engineer officer, from Little Round Top, laid out the line of defence for the Union forces that won the battle for them. In bronze Gen. Warren stands to-day overlooking, from Little Round Top, the scene of the great success for his plans and his planting of artillery. Gettysburg can claim a place in every Memorial day observation, for it witnessed the first of them, the very fall of the year in which the battle took place. David Wills of Gettytys.org originated the idea of the first battlefield national cemetery, out of which has grown the movement that preserves Antietam, Chickamauga and Missionary Ridge, and that will end in the parking of the Bull Run battlefield. Gov. Curtin, soon after the fighting at Gettysburg, visited the field to make arrangements for the suitable burial of Pennsylvania's dead. He left the matter, when he left, in the hands of Wills. The latter soon suggested the purchase of ground adjoining Get- 1888 cavalry leader, who lives in that fam- urning defeat into victory. tysburgh cemetery and the admission to this field of the dead buried all over what is now the battlefield park. He explained that the soldiers who fell had been buried in what was arable farm land, and which would soon be made use of again for tillage. He pointed out, too, that the method of burial in many cases had been hasty and inefficient. Pennsylvania therefore purchased seventeen acres of ground and set it aside for the burial of the Union dead. Other states whose soldiers had fought at Gettysburg were invited to make use of it. They responded cordially and also contributed toward the expense of preparing the cemetery. Old Soldier Not Forgotten. We do not think that our people all ways sufficiently consider how much this nation has cost in blood and tears. Measured thus, it is precious beyond words. We all love it, though we sometimes fail to serve it unselfishly. The fact that we do thus fail makes it necessary that we should constantly recur to the examples of those who counted no sacrifice too great to make in behalf of their country. It is sometimes said that the Union soldier is forgotten, that he has done his work, and that the people no longer care about him. He has not been for gotten. People do still care about him. And his work will never be done. That work, indeed, grows in importance with the passing years. For what is it but to preach constantly righteousness, courage, patriotism, unselfish devotion to duty and heroic sacrifice? And this work can be, and is, done by the dead as well as the living. There is abundant use yet to be made of the old soldier. He stands and will ever stand for the ideal in life, for the doing of duty rather than the winning of personal success.

U.S. GRANT The battlefields of Bull Run have undergone little change since the civil war. Catharpin creek, Young's branch, Cub run and Rocky fork are still pouring into Bull run, and that historic stream rolls sluggishly from the mountains to Aquia creek. There are the same open fields and stretches of woods shown on the topographic maps used in 1861 and '62. Sudley Springs and Groveton are no bigger hamlets than at the time of the battles; Centerville has rather shrunk than grown, and Haymarket, on the Sudley road, which was a group of three or four houses, has disappeared. Manassas, from a mere hamlet at the junction of the Orange & Alexandria railroad and the Manassas Gap railroad, has become a small village and is the seat of Prince William county, whereas Brentville had that distinction in America's heroic age. The bells of Sudley meeting house and Centerville church ring out every Sunday, and old men pray there who listened to the firing, saw glimpses of the struggles, carried water to the wounded and helped bury the dead.

Washb Those churches were hospitals during and after both battles. A shot from a Union battery, which made a breach in the walls' of Sudley meeting house, is preserved by a member of the congregation. Bethel church, which was Fitz-John Porter's headquarters when he lay behind Dawkin's branch on Aug. 28, 1862, has been removed four miles south of its old site, but the foundation stones may be seen by those who will enter the thicket of undergrowth that obscures them. The Henry house, the Chinn, Dogan and Matthew houses, destroyed by shells, were long ago restored on their first foundations and are to-day as they were in '61. The Stone house still stands at the crossing of the Warrenton pike and Sudley road, and until recently was occupied by a Virginia farmer, who as a cavalryman under Stuart fought the fields around the house. Over the first shell thrown from Tyler's division when the fight opened at the Stone bridge, is still there. So, too, The Van Pelt house, damaged by is the Robinson house, and Robinson, the old negro who dwelt there when Hunter and Heintzelman drove Bee, Bartow and Evans from the heights north of the plike to those on the south, dwells there to-day. The Lewis house, Johnston's headquarters, is still occupied by Mr. Lewis. and the Hampton Cole house. which figured so conspicuously in the Fitz-John Porter case, is standing. Mrs. Dogan, through whose farm runs the railroad cut where Porter, Sigel, Reynolds and King fought to dislodge Jackson on Aug. 30, 1862, is still living at Groveton. She is 87 years old and hearty. She likes nothing better than to tell of the red, grim scenes of war. The fields in that bloody square bounded by Centerville on the east, Groveton and Gainesville on the west, Sudley on the north and Manassas on the south, are as a rule, still tiled by the families who worked them when Prince William and Fairfax counties shook under the tread of armies and the crash of guns. It is believed that most of the bones of the men slain at Blackburn's ford, July 18, 1861; Bull Run, July 21, 1861; Stone bridge and Gainesville, Aug. 27 and 28, 1862, and Groveton and Sudley, Aug. 29 and 20, 1862, have been exhumed. Those recovered from the Federal positions were removed to Arlington, where many hundreds are heaped under the monument to the "Unknown," day trod. the way and now; woe. our love. pow- the ne, osoms fell. urn. and many other hundreds are buried in individual graves marked with a little slab also inscribed "Unknown." Bones dug from the Confederate positions in the first battle are interred under a red sandstone shaft at Manassas, five miles south of the central fighting ground. This shaft is inscribed "Dedicated by the Ladies' Memorial Association of Manassas on August 30, 1889, to the Heroes of Virginia and Her Sister States, Who Yielded Their Lives on July 18 and 21, 1861, and August 29 and 30, 1862, in Defence of the Confederate Cause." Close by the Henry house there is a rude Union monument erected "In Memory of the Patriots Who Fell at Bull Run. Erected June 10, 1865." In a bit of cedar woods by the railroad cut at Groveton there is another little Union monument "In Memory of the Patriots Who Fell at Groveton August 28, 29 and 30, 1862." There is no Confederate monument on the battlefield. Bones taken from the Confederate lines of the second battle are buried on a knoll at Groveton. As the positions of the armies often overlapped, it is safe to believe that northern and southern soldiers are mingled at Arlington and Manassas. Identification of the bones at Groveton was not difficult, for while the Confederate dead were buried in deep trenches, the Union soldiers who fell Defective Page near the "cut," the place of greatest slaughter, were not given sufficient burial. Earth was simply shovelled over the poor corpse where they lay. The first heavy rain washed away the earth and exposed the remains. This statement is made on authority of Mrs. Dogan, who, ordered from the field by Jackson's men as the fighting began, returned to her farm before the removal of all the wounded or the burial of the dead. Reminders of the fighting are ever coming to light. Hunters often come upon skeletons in woods far from the field. These are the bones of men who, wounded, straggled off and died. With each spring plowing bones of men and horses, buckles, canteens, bayonets, gun barrels and buttons are upturned. Around some of the farm houses are big piles of solid shot and broken shell. Tons of this battlefield iron have been collected and sold as scrap-iron. Nearly every farmer in the neighborhood has a collection of swords, guns and bayonets gathered from the field. When the Groveton monument was dedicated three years after the last Cen. U.S. GRANT battle, the fields were still thickly strewn with weapons and articles of soldiers' equipment. The line of railroad bed (the road was never finished) along which Jackson formed from Gainsville to Sudley is well preserved, though overgrown with pine and cedar. Earthworks around Manassas and Centerville clearly mark the camps of Beauregard and McDowell. There are no earthworks on the fighting ground. None was built. On the Henry farm stakes have been driven to mark where Col. Cameron of the 79th New York and Gen. Bee were killed, where Rickett's battery was cut to pieces and where Wade Hampton was wounded. In a dense woodland off the field two bits of board tell that Gens. Willcox and Kirby Smith were shot there. A rail fence stands just where the rail fence stood along which Jackson's brigade was drawn up when Gen. Bee gave Jackson the soubriquet of "Stonewall." The place on the Chinn hill where Col. Fletcher Webster, son of Daniel Webster, was killed in the second battle is pointed out by the people who live there. What "Etc." Means. An English schoolboy was asked what "etc." meant. "It is a sign used in writing to make people think you know more than you do." --- NOBLE WORK DONE BY G. A. R. Magnificent Organization Is First Among the Brotherhoods of Men --- C The destinies of the Grand Army have been presided over by the truest and the best. From its very inception the Grand Army of the Republic was destined to a great and noble work, and to supply a place in the desires of patriotic men that no other had been able to do. The provision eschewing politics and religion and providing for the banding together under the most sacred obligations to work together for the defense of their country, for the alleviation of each other's woes, for the uplifting and betterment of each other and those dependent upon them, touched a responsive chord in the heart of every soldier who knew by experience that every man who signed such an obligation would be true to it. The plan for the organization of posts in every hamlet, town and city, and to unite them in departments in every state, and once a year to meet in a grand national encampment, would insure the perpetuity of their comradeship, that the post would supply the place of the soldier's regiment, the convention of the department of the state his corps, and the national encampment that of the army to which he belonged. At the campfires of these meetings he could live over again scenes which were burned into his memory by the heat of battle. He would have a resource in every dilemma that might overtake him through life, and DR. STEIN Founder of the Grand friends to succor him in sickness and misfortune and who would follow him to the grave when he was finally mustered out. The ritual appealed so strongly to them that today, forty years after the war, the Grand Army of the Republic is many thousands strong. It has borne upon its rolls more than 300,000 ex-Union soldiers. It has expended thousands of dollars in charity for its members and their families. To the Grand Army of the Republic more than to any other order do the unfortunate look for aid. If a comrade is sick he sends to his post for sympathy and help. If he seeks employment he can rely upon his comrades to vouch for him. He knows when the end comes that he will be laid to rest by the members of his post, and that a stone will mark his last resting place, and that it will never be reared in a potter's field, and that each recurring 30th of May flowers will be strenu above the low green mounds where sleep the loyal dead. It is a curious fact that the genius who was the author of so magnificent an organization should have been in his last days one of the very unfortunate for whom he was so solicitous in his halcyon days. Overtaken by misfortunes and an ill-starred fate, Dr. Stephenson, after years of discouragement, died and was buried at Rock Creek, Menard county, Ill., Aug. 30, 1871, though scarcely at the zenith of his manhood. Aug. 29, 1882, Estill Post 71, G. A. R., Department of Illinois, removed Dr. Stephenson's remains to Petersburg, Ill., and reinterred them among the soldiers of Rose Hill cemetery with impressive ceremonies, thus rescuing him from the oblivion of an unmarked grave. Judge James A. Matheny, of Springfield, in delivering the eulogy at the grave, alluded to Dr. Stephenson's authorship of the Grand Army of the Republic in the following eloquent language: $2.40 PER YEAR. DONE BY G. A. R. On Is First Among the birds of Men "When this thought first came to our comrade his whole soul was filled with the grand conception. Without rest or weariness his every energy was devoted to the accomplishment of the grand desire. With a pathetic inspiration he saw clearly the great goal to be attained. He felt that he was erecting an altar upon which the fire of love for the whole Union would burn, and burn forever. He saw with prophetic vision the Star Spangled Banner of the nation—not a confederation of discredited states, but a nation's banner unfurled to the breeze; and with fancy's ear he heard the trump of millions of soldiers of the Grand Army as they gathered beneath it to shield and defend it from every harm. "My friends, how well he read the future! His grand anticipations are more than realized. The camp fires of the Grand Army are burning from ocean to ocean. Thousands and tens of thousands of his brotherhood of soldiers meet nightly in fraternal greeting. The banner that he so loved is floating stainless and pure in God's bright sunshine, never again to be soiled and torn by traitor's hands. "Though not here to witness it, the grand dream of his life has assumed the proportions of a bright reality. The note that he struck single-handed is illuminating an entire land, and at the last is mingling its radiance over the consecrated spot where our com- PHENSON. Army of the Republic. rade reposes, all unconscious that his hour of triumph has come. "The law of compensation pervades all nature. A new thought proclaimed, a good deed done or heroic act performed will sooner or later meet its proper reward. It may tarry long; it may linger in its coming but come it will, with unfailing certainty. In obedience to that law we have come even at this late day to do honor to our departed comrade and friend. Let us not stop here let us by some fitting testimonial proclaim to all coming our appreciation of the grand work accomplished by our departed friend and companion. Let us "Seek no further his merits to disclose; For draw his frailties from their dread there they alike in trembling hope pose— The bosom of his Father and his God." — Mrs. John A. Logan in Cincinnati Enquirer. Theirs the Memory That Endures. The highest honor of which they dreamed in life is theirs whose graves are strewn to-day with the flowers of spring. The proud young nation which they helped to save holds them, and will ever hold them in grateful remembrance. They made the supreme sacrifice and they reaped the supreme reward. Theirs it is to be cherished forever in the nation's heart. And what of the men who march to-day? Their wavering footsteps, as they follow the music of drum and life, their thinning ranks remind us that they, too, soon will be the recipients, not the instruments, of the honors of Memorial day. Their place is secure. The inspiration of their deeds will live when their dust has mingled with their comrades' and their very names are forgotten. Ay, the boys of '61 will live forever. The lessons of self-sacrifice, devotion and patriotism which they have taught cannot perish so long as God's sun shines and God's world endures. --- GIVE YOU READ THE APEAL? ADAMS BROS.

The Charleston News and Courrier is much helped up by an article which Mr. Hamilton W. Mabie has contributed to a magazine, under the title of "The New North." The News and Courrier "it is refreshing, for instance, to hear a Northern man of Mr. Mabie's literary prominence declaring that 'the day will come when states of Lee and Stonewall Jackson will find place in the South.' There are types of ideal Americans, stainless in character, heroic in self-sacrifice, following duty with unshrinking loyalty and at an immense cost." Mr. Mabie also expects statues to be erected by the Southern people to Lincoln." He does so on further to express itself thus: "If, as Mr. Mabie alleges, are some of the views which are gaining a wider and firmer hold in 'The New North,' the day of a perfect understanding between the sections is terrily near at hand." Now it seems to us that this conclusion is based upon very unsubstantial premises. One swallow does not make a swallow, nor does one conferring Mr. Malee among such commanding influence as to be able to do anything special toward bringing forward the consummation he so confidently predicts. The brethren of the Presbyterian household of faith admit, and for brethren to dwell together in unity; but when it comes to the actual getting together, an ordinary bed-bug can beat them in celerity. Mr. Malee's New North is not a New North at all; and for brethren to dwell together dued. Vallandingham and burned Afro-American orphan asylums in New York City—the North that mobbed William Lloyd Garrison and slew Elijah P. Lovejoy. That element does not erect statues no honor grand personage, but the people are of the type of Herr Most Thomas Dixon, Vardaman and Jesse James. PRESBYTERIAN JIM CROWISM At the General Assembly of the Presbyterian church at Winona Lake Ind. Monday, it was voted to reunite with the Cumberland Presbyterian body, which withdrew from the original denomination in 1810. The slavery question was the cause of the reunion, and in the reunion the race question plays an important part. The Northern Presbyterians have given up the principles for which they have stood so long and have accepted the Jimcrow ideas of the South in permitting the establishment of separate presbyteries. Not satisfied with the Afro-American the attempt was made to further insult the race and place it in a bad light before the world by reference in the resolutions to the "growing criminality of the Afro-American." This base label was too much for Justice John M. Hartan, of the United States supreme court, who made a speech in defense of the race, saying, among other things, that the growing criminality of the Afro-American people comes from these who wish to keep up race prejudice. In proportion to 'numbers, there are no more Afro-American criminals than white. Let us find nowhere in the reports or deliberations of the geography of the Afro-American and the realness of the Afro-American" and the resolutions were adopted without any reference thereto. John M. Harlan is a man of the type of John Knox, who knew no fear save the fear of God, who was ever ready to venture his life in the cause of right. He fought every evil, injustice and tyranny. Although it was pressured that the assembly was composed of Christians, it seems that but few are true followers of the meek and lowly Nazarete; the great majority are canting hypocrites. THE FIFTEENTH AMENDMENT. The Washington Post, in a recent issue, arrives at the following conclusions in regard to the Fifteenth amendment: It is among the things that were and is now almost universally regarded as a gigantic mistake which would take rank among the great political crimes of history but for the excuse of ignorance. Had its authors known the facts of the situation as they were specially known by ecclesiastical and multilateral enforcement of all the freedmen never would have been attempted. It is a perversion of history." We fail to see where is the evidence to prove that that enactment is almost universally regarded as a gigantic mistake. If such were the case, there would have been a great difference, there would have been the political parties or candidates, or from some of the Southern legislature so recently in session; but with the exception of some crank from the hinder part of Mississippi no one has made the least move in that direction. Moreover, for the Post to accuse such men as Blaine, Bontwell, Thad, Stevens and their contemporaries of the most prominent specimen of sinuity that the twentieth century has as yet produced. The United States has never had a grander body of statesmen assembled in the capitol than those who enacted the Fifteenth Amendment, to render future the efforts of the Southern legislature to encourage far more villainous and damnable than slavery itself. This is no perversion of history—it is the record. The Southern Industrial Parliament opened at Washington city Tuesday, the day before North Carolina was elected president, and in his opening address said relative to immigration: "But let me say this—we don't want the riff-raff of the world. We want no men who say there is no God and who stain their hands with their fellows' blood. We want the right, the true and the true imposes the imposes made to persuade white immigrants that they had to be on an equality with the Afro-American were based on falsehoods. "We give the Afro-American all his entitled to under law," he declared, "but there's one line we draw—the line of social equality. We think the white man is a better man than the Afro-American and we stick to that line and spread that doctrine." In the matter of blood guliliness North Carolina stands way up on the list: the Wilmington massacre of 1888 was one of the bloodiest that has disgraced the state, and it was only one of many. For: the governor of a state to publicly declare that one class of citizens is better than another class is criminal, and is a vicious tool to the alleged suspect class to transmute the rights of the weaker. Gov. Glenn should be hearty ashamed of himself. DEATH OF JUDGE TOURGEE The death of Judge Albion W. Tougee takes from the world one of the best friends of the Afro-American people this country has ever produced. Born in Ohio, he fought for the Union in the slaveholders' rebellion, taking part in the first battle of Bull Run, was taken prisoner and was convicted of various Confederate prisons. At the close of the war he established the Union Register at Greensboro, N. C., which advocated Afro-American suffrage. In 1866 he was elected judge of the supreme court of North Carolina by a large majority of the duke of ku klux regions of the state, and because of his deprivations of this organization several attempts were made on his life. Judge Tougee wrote a number of books bearing on the race question. His work, "The Race of 1879," leaped into once a popularity which has been equaled by only one American work. "Uncle Tom's Cabin." Peace to his ashes. In discussing the Ogden educational gathering the Charleston News and Courier protests against the eloquent tribute paid by the New York Evening Post to Messrs. Aldermen, Denny the bushes, or ever turned a hand to help the South, other strong souls and better souls were laying foundations upon which the educational fabric of the South has been erected." In this journal is correct. The whole article is correct. The organization of reconstruction days and one-half of the race in the Southland had been removed from the ranks of the Illiterate before Mr. Ogden and his hot polloi ever lent a hand. Bishop Brown, the great theological headlight, is at it again. He says: "The negro race as a whole are the most shiftless, the most ragged, filthy, idle, worthless and degraded of any people of whom I have personal knowledge." He appears that Bishop Brown's personal and other varieties of knowledge do not include an intimate acquaintance with the United States census, or he would be ashamed to mention as facts what has been so thoroughly disproved. And it seems that despite his Northern background, he holds his job without diving so deep and coming up so dirty. CIVIL WAR TIMES Civil War Times.

"History of the Commune of 1811" translated from the French of Lissaryg by Eleanor Marx Aveling, New York: 1811. The translator has performed the diffi- cultive work of the per- former, the grammatical and pointed use of all French prose, and of his Lissagaray appears the descriptive art of the author never before seen. The chapter of this book of extra- dition happenings, of which 1871 was the, culmination of French weakness and imbecility—the culmination of a criminal torpor that had been so long followed swifely upon the heels of the prostration of the French by the wonder- strategists Von Moltke In reading certain chapters of this book one might easily imagine that the revolt one affected in Paris were again being directed at Paris and elsewhere throughout the country. The events which led up to the war was the same type of war described by the author. 'Bismarck prepared the war. Napoleon III. wanted the great verge to be looked on. I'm right. I stopped the earnestness of the same. With a grimace. He saw in this time our country is the most infertility in everything; he could have wanted the Left, the tiers-parti, the journey of the world, the great war.

'Poor France: Who will save the 2000s? The war is the first one to end the war. There is a great force for the whole of the world. While the upper classes sell the nation for a war, the people are the only one to feel their nests under the empire, a handful of men without arms. We are the most powerful despot. On the one hand young men who form the bourgeoise have gone out of power, and the people who are the only one who resolved to continue the work of the Revolution; on the other hand working in the for the study and conquest of the world. We are the only one who give the power to seize the workings. We are the only one who will be a description of the terrific political struggle between the contending factions which finally burst forth in all the horrors of the country. Paris, Marseilles, Toulouse and Narbon are soon to be converted into veritable states. The number of war-told struggle which for madness and unchecked violence finds few counterparts in the history of the war. Many new events—that is events which have hitherto been obscure to the students of the world—are the most important of the author.

Perhaps at no time since its beginning has the future of St. Thomas mission looked brighter than at present. From a very small attendance when the Rev. Geo. H. Thomas took charge of the mission the congregation has steadily increased until at present each Sunday finds the church nearly filled, and at confirmation, which will occur on Friday night, the 9th of June, the 10th of June, and presents themselves for confirmation. The Sunday school, too, has more than doubled itself since the 1st of January, and is still growing. Perhaps no factor has done so much for the building up of the church, aside from the personality of the rector, as the choir. Composed of the following members—Mrs. Wm. Smith, Miss Ada Spencer, Mrs. Jennie Kemp, Miss Cora Napier and Miss Pearl Martin, sopranos; Mrs. B. F. Pierre and Mrs. W. C. Jeffrey, contraxtos; Dr. F. C. Nelson, tenor; Mr. Wm. M. Smith and Artiste Spence, bassos; Miss Arlene Scott, organist, and Dr. W.C. Jeffrey, chairmaster—it is unquestionably the best organizer of the kind among the choirs in the Twin Cities, and ranks well up among the first of any. Its work must be heard to be appreciated. The mission is now located at Ninth street and Fifth avenue south, but they expect in the not very distant future to be located in a new building of their own; in fact, a thing is positively demanded by the activity of the church.

Native Americans lead in the crime annals of Chicago for the first three months of 1905, and the number of native born offenders in all branches of crime far exceeds that of other nationalities, according to figures prepared by Hugo S. Grosser, city statistician. Aside from the Americans, the Germans are high in the list of crimes during January, February and March, while compared with their number the Poles and Russians contribute largely to the work of the police department. The Irish are also well up in the list, although their percentage is one-third that of the Germans and lower than that of the Poles and Russians. MILLS' LUNCH AND SANDWICH ROOM. J. S.

The social affair par excellence of last week was the second annual dance of the Universal club, which was given Friday evening at Wagner hall, corner Western avenue and Charles street. The club is composed of the "young set," and their guests generally were the "buds" and debutantes of the Twin Cities. The hall, which is a very convenient and well adapted one for such an affair, has seldom contained a more handsome or refined gathering. The ladies were young and beautiful and the male portion of the gathering was—with few exceptions—young and without exception gallant and, in fact, all deported themselves with an air of ease and grace equal to if not superior to older and consequently more experienced set. The officers of the club are: Arthur C. Lowe, president; Willie Saulters, secretary; C. P. Tyler, treasurer. And they were very much in evidence and were indefeitable in their efforts, as sure that their guests were properly cared for and given a full opportunity to make the most of delightful evening. Minneapolis was quite well represented, and so far as pretty girls are concerned fully shared the honors with St. Paul. Armant's orchestra furnished delightful music and a programme of twenty numbers was danced. The ladies were quite handsomely gowned, as the following list of gowns will show: Miss Belle Saulters, gas light green albatross, ribbons chiffon and lace, roses, diamonds.
