A BRIGHT AND COOL APRIL DAY—BUSINESS sUS- PENDED—LUNCH-BASKET PARTIES ANTICIPATE MAY-DAY IN THE WOOD8—SPECIAL THANKSGIV- ING SERVICES IN THE CHURCHES, A cool, bright, beautiful morning, inspiriting and invigorating, ushered in the centennial of the inauguration of George Washington as first President of the United States, and the city founded by him and which bears his name, the capital of a great, free, united and prosperous country, never looked brighter and prettier with its clean streets, shaded by trees wearing their new spring dress, and its lovely parks, with their rich green sward, adorned with the many-colored blossoms of flowering shrubs and plants. The lovely character of the day and the ver- nal beauty of the city probably brought to the mind of every good citizen, by the contrast, the gloomy, raw, drizzly, stormy, umbrella-and- rubber-overcoat weather of March 4, and sug- gested the glory of an inauguration held at this time, when the thousands of inaugural visitors could see the capital arrayed in all the loveliness of spring. Thousands were unable to resist the invitation of sun, blue sky, and balmly ar, and hence started — early to the country on picnic excursions, ‘There was a fuspension of all public business and many private business establishments were closed. In accordance with the President's roclamation, thanksgiving services were held ty all religious denominations. The hour for such services was generally 9 o'clock, the hour at which the thanksgiving services were held i w York a hundred years ago. The services in all the churches were well attended and they were over by half-past 10 o'clock. The Catholic Churches. Centennial mass was celebrated in all of the Catholic churches at 9 o'clock this morning with an appropriate sermon in each, Rev. Father Chappelle occupied the pulpit at St. Matthew's. He selected his text from the 13th chapter of the 2d Book of Macchabaeus, relat- ing to the celebration by the chil- dren of Israel of the victory of Judas Macchabaeus over their enemies. All memories of momentous events, he said, were best perpetuated by their commemoration at certain periods, and they had been as- sembled to-day that every true citizen might rejoice for the divine blessing bestowed on the land in the past one hundred years, and com- memorate the great event that occurred a century ago. OUR FOREFATHERS HAD STRUGGLED HARD for the day when they might see themselves a free people, and this was an event of the greatest consequence, for on it depended the social and political welfare of unborn millions. The fin- ger of God had been so evidently work- ing for them that they assembled in the churches after the ceremonies of the occasion to thank the Divine Providence. Patriotism is inseparable from a love for God and family; and that which has made the great- est glory of Christian nations has been directly derived from the church, “Fortunately for these people there was, at the beginning of independence, a man, a true American, a true Christian, without guile, whose intelligence, without perhaps being what might be called of the highest order, was superior, because he was endowed with THE RARE QUALITY OF GOOD SENSE, and with a superhuman disinterest for self. No doubt his heart beat witha desire for the ap- preciation of the good, the just and the intelli- gent, but when it uggested to him that the time ste ae eger for him to establish a kingdom he did not, like Cesar, put away the proffered crown, but said that there had never been made to him a proposition that so sad- dened him, He was a moderate man, and took time to weigh and consider the different phases of a question, and hence his ident had in e 8) it something prophetic. speaker paid further GLOWING TRIBUTES TO THE MEMORY OF WASH- INGTON, and spoke of the formation of the union which, he said, was modeled upon the existence of the Divine Being Himself, a symbol of the Holy Trinity. ‘In the history of humanity,” he said, “‘I do not know of a closer instance of God’s Divine government than was secured by the Constitution of the United States, As in the church there have been heresies, so in the union there have been influences at work that have threatened its existence.” He spoke with feeling of the civil war, when the earth drunk the blood of the people, homes were shattered, treasures spent, families desolated, but the most enlightened on the conquered side have to-day that the issue has been a blessed one. and that they would not, if they could, change the result. He mentioned THE EVILS OF SLAVERY and the race problem now confronting us; that mistake which arose from a crime and led toa horrible war, and expressed a hope that the People would deal with the unfortunate ones with human forebarance and patience, so as was in our face, he said: that j apart the 6th day of August. 136 of the conflict between capital and labor, as a result of which, if the go pra lost sight of the cardinal principles of society. the land wilfy become debased. *Washington ‘and his con- ing aversion for what are calted the privileged classes, and declared and believed that the only nobility that came toa man should be by vir- tue, not of his wealth or descent, but of his moral and intellectual worth, his intelligence, patriotism, and love of Christianit Union Service of Presbyterian Churches. The Washington inauguration centennial services of the Presbyterian churches of this city, by order of the presbytery, were held at the First Presbyterian church this morning, Rev. Dr. Sunderland presiding. The church was tastefully decorated with flags and bunt- ing, while the pulpit was a bower of plants and cut flowers. A large antiqu@portrait of Wash- ington, framed with the national colors, occu- pied a conspicuous place on the pulpit. After an invocation by Rev. Mr. Miller, of Gurley chapel, the 741st hymn was sung. ADDRESS OF JUSTICE DRAKE. Justice Drake made an interesting address. He reviewed the history of the great thanks- givings of the world, commencing with that of | the Hebrews at the overthrow of the Egyptians. He said the next thanksgiving did not come ioc tixeal Sivamesd onen She aeume one changed from where the Israelites saw the Egyptians dead upon the seashore, to America, | where ‘freemen saw the fatal blow given to kingly power. He then spoke of the natio: thanksgiving which the people of the United States have been called npon to observe in commemoration of special’ manifestaticns of Divine goodness in their national affairs. The surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown was the occasion of another thanksgiving. end Congress proclaimed one. The next sy when the American people were cailed to ob- ve aday of national thanksgiving was in when the second war with Great Britain wal occasion 181 aud the United States was terminated. One of of the other Presidential js of the nation to observe a day of national thanksgiving was the proclamation of Abraham Lincoln, setting | for that purpose. In conclusion, Justice Drake said: “My countrymen, while we this day honor the character, the ts, and the memory of Washington, let us realize that Abraham Lin coln stands side by side with him in all great- | ness and goodness, second to him only. and that thus far in the whole world remember | that it was a republic that gave to history those two unsurpassed of earth's uninspired heroes, And now to-day, the fourth great thanksgiving of Americans, 60,000,000 in num ber, answers the song of the fathers and sends forward to the generations yet to come the joyous shout, “The Lord hath not dealt so with any nation! Praise God in His sanctuar: praise Him in the firmament of His power: everything that hath breath praise the Lord.’ OTHER ADDRESSE! The address of Rev. Mr. Patch, of Unity Presbyterian church, was very interesting. He commenced with the state of affairs a century ago and compared it with the present. What wonderful strides we have made, and how sur- prised George Washington would be could he now be among us! His remarks were received with a murmur of satisfaction. Hon, H. O. Claughton followed Mr. Patch with a patriotic address. Rev. Mr. Hershey, when called upon, said: “Our Constitution is all right. od has his hands on the strings and he will guide us. I think we have about as much as we can attend to. and think it about time to sing the Dox- ology. Rev. Dr. Childs spoke of the past and future, what the nation has been, and the momentous question, the future. He said that the astronomer could tell you exactly where the lanets would be one hundred years from now, ut noastronomer could tell us where this grand republic would be a century hence. He said that the only hope of the nation for the future was the infinite purpose of God toward it. The addresses were interspersed with sing- ing and prayer, and the services were concluded by the singing of the hymn America. AMONG THE MINISTERS PRESENT were Rev. Mr. Miller, of Gurley cha F. Johnston, of the First Presbyterian chure! Rev. Mr. Kelly, of the Fourth Presby} church: Rev. Dr. Pitzer, of Central Presby- terian churel .. 5 of Eas terian church: Rev. Mr. Patch, of Unity Presbyterian church; Rev. Dr. Hamline, of the Church of the Covenant; Re Mr. Grimke, of the Fifteenth-street Presby terian church; Rey. Mr. Hershey, of the Sixth Presbyterian church: Rev. Mr. Wynkoop, of the Western Presbyterian church; Rev. Mr. Ramedell, of the North Presbyterian church. The music was accompanied by the organ under the care of Miss Annie Wilson; the clario- net by Mr. Jardine, and the violin by Mr. Bailey Ashford Dr. F, Johnston was the leader. The Baptist Union Service. The Baptists of the city held a union thanks- giving service this morning at 9 o'clock in the E-street Baptist church. The attendance was large. The services consisted of prayers of thanksgiving. patriotic songs, and brief ad- dresses of « patriotic vein touching the ques- tions of religion and education. ‘The prayers invoked a divine blessing upon the nation for ihecealny techie Ser De Bacnss ek eee serv Addresses were made by Dy.

In the Lutheran Churches. ‘The day was generally observed by the con- gregations of the Lutheran churches of this An audience of fair proportions a mbled in the Luther Place Memorial church at 9 o'clock. Appropriate music was rendered by the choir, and the pastor of the church, Rev. Dr. J. G. Butler, read selections from the Scriptures and offered prayer. He then iutroduced Rev. Chas. H. Butler, who read a historical paper giving an account of the events attending the forma- tion of the government and the circumstances leading up to the maugural ceremonies of April 30, 1789, He spoke of the joyful mani- festations of the people and the grand demon- stration of that day. He referred specially to the fact that the ceremonies of the day were opened with religious services in the churches. The solemn and impressive ceremony of ad- ministering the oath and the attendance upon divine service subsequently by President Wash- ington afforded evidences of the religious sen- timent which characterized the occasion. The speaker said that THIS WAS A CHRISTIAN NATION, andthe Christian element has always been prominent, While no reference is made in the Constitution to God, yet the speaker said that it must not be supposed that the framers of the overnment wished it to be understood that zod was not recognized by them. Their meet- ings prove the contrary, and the religious life and character of the first President afford ad- ditional evidence of the religious spirit of the times. He thought that the life of Washington furnished valuable lessons to the people of the present time, and that the spirit of the found- ers of the government ought to prevail in the councils of those in authority, Upon the conclusion of the paper the choir rendered an anthem, GEN. EKIN’S ADDRESS, An address was then delivered by Gen. Jas. A. Ekin, of Louisville, K; whom Dr. Butler introduced as a former member of the church. Gen. Ekin referred to the memoriel character of the church building, which was built as a token of gratitude to God for the preservation of the national life in the last war, He was @ member of the building commit but to the stor was due the credit of having given the uilding the name of the Memo: church, After explaining that this digression was due to the fact that former associations had been called to his mind by the surroundings in which he found himself, he proceeded to speak of the events which the occasion commemo- rated, He said that Congress, in adopting the program of the first inauguration providing for attendance upon divine worship, had recog- nized the existence of God in a very significant manner. Ip confirmation of the religious sen- timent of the day, he quoted let- ters of the time as to the religi- ous character of Washington and it constant habit of prayer. He thought that it was no wonder that this had been a nation. Religious services are being beid'in the same church in New York city where they were held one hundred years ago. Washington's successor, General Harrison, is to-day occupy- ing the same pew that General Washington occupied. While there have Co eegrtemen 4 in this country the influence of Gospel of Christ has not been lost. The President of to- day is following in the footsteps of the first President. He spoke of the great increase in the population of the country and contrasted the condition of the country generally with that of one hundred years ago. The church he thought had maintained a greater oy tion of growth during the century that has just closed. The outlook for the future he regarded as favorable and he predicted greater activity religious circles. he sons own Pi made by Ber, Dr. significance ti vent and come af the lemons it conveyed. eran church, and toe pastor, Bev.

THE PATRIOTISM OF TEE CHURCH was then made plain by reference to events that are matters of history, and the statement was very plainly made by the doctor that ne class of men did more for the in ndence of the country than the clergy and laity of the Episcopal faith. He defen the charge that it was not in harmony with republican institutions—that it was a follower of monarchical ideas—and showed ernment of the Episco; government of the United States, a affair, in which the laity was the great, trolling power.
