CITY AND DISTRICT. @ No city in the world is so thoroughly covered by the circulation of a ‘single news- peper as is the city of Washington by that of Tux Evextvo Stan. It reaches all readers in the city and vicinity. It swears to its circula- tion. No other Washington paper has yet done this. THE METHODIST UNIVERSITY. The Project Heartily Indorsed at Last Night’s Meeting. WASHINGTON’S ADVANTAGES AS A UNIVERSITY SITE ADDRESSES BY DISTINGUISHED SPEAKERS— BISHOP HURST OUTLINES THE PLAN—A GENER- Us SUBSCRIPTION. Apparently very much interested was the large crowd of people that filled Metropolitan ME. church last night, The subject in which their interest was manifest was one in which Washington is beginning to wake up on— fhe proposed Methodist national university.

H. Warner. That gen- tleman could not be present, but he was repre- sented by Rev. Dr. Bartlett. DR. BARTLETT'S ADDRESS, Dr. Bartlett said he had not a very extensive constituency, but it was a power in Washing- ton—a single but potent factor. As to the uni- versity there could be no possible objection to it; it was in the interest of Washington, of the United States, of the world. As to location Washington was the place—the city of Wash- ington and Jefferson. the great literary city of the country. Tyndall said there were more scien- tific meu in this city than in any other city in the is controlled by Methodists. a great many of | World. The city only needed to be roofed in to those present either believed in other creeds or else were not possessed of any particular mode of faith, They all agreed on one point and that was that there was necessity for a great university and that this city was the place in which to locate it. In the rear of the pulpit sat Bishop John F. Hurst, the promoter of the university, and on either hand were Rev. Dr. Corey, Mr. Matthew G. Emery, Kev. Dr. Bartlett, ‘Representative | E. A. Morse, Senator Hawley, er Newman (who arrived after the proceedings com- menced), and Col. Wright, a prominent Meth- Odist of Philadelphia. OFFICERS OF THE MERTING.

He was authorized to say, however, that the Senetor was intensely interested in the university project. BISHOP HURST'S ADDRESS. Bishop Hurst then stepped to the front and made the introductory addre “We have made the beginning,” he sai tract of 90 acres has been bought on the Northwestern Heights, three and a quarter miles from the White House. Ou this the first payment of $20,000 has been made. ‘The remaining $30,000 are to be paid in four annual install- ments of $20,000 each. But while we have the liberty to make the payment of these install- ments annually, we also have the liberty to pay them ali at once. I sincerely hope that, including the payment already made, we may before we leave this place reach the mag- nificent result of paying at least a half of the whole sum. ‘the situation is magnificent. From the upper rooms of the buildings, when completed, 1 am informed, our whole city can be seen. Already, however, standing on the ground one can see two-thirds of the Washington monument. ‘Then, on the northwest, the view is from fifty to seventy miles distant. One sees not only the Catoctin hills, but the Blue Ridge and Harper's Ferry. ‘The land lies in a direct line with Massachusetts avenne, and will be touched by it when that avenue is extended, It lies 400 feet above the streets of the city. Its shape is ecisely that of a keystone, and may we not ope that when the buildings shall stand upon it, the institution, in this very center of our national life, may help to hold together the whole structure of our social, political and Protestant civilization, Our purpose is not combative. We have no contention with any forces except those of ignorance aud darkness. Our time and means will be best employed in building up the in- telligence of the people and in distributing it to every = of the world. We shal! need a large sum of money in order to make the institution answer the object of its establishment. With less than two millions of dollars we should not begiu to build That will come, however, as we believe, and larger sums than that, ‘Al- ready the gifts of the poor have come in from Many parts of the country and with them the prayers of the many. Ministers of the gospel ve sent information that their gifts, though small, lie in banks awaiting our order. But it seemed proper that in Washington, where the university is to be located, we should make our Girst appeal. The friends of a goud cause ought at least to be its nearest neighbors. Gentlemen and ladies of various denominations have been pleased to contribute their share toward the | first payment and I doubt not they will mani- fest an equally generous interest in the later oues. THE NEED OF A METHODIST UNIVERSITY. “So far as our own church is concerned,” said the speaker, “with us it isan absolute necessity that we take measures to found an in- stitution of the highest grade, in precisely this latitude. We have noue in New York city, none in Philadelphia, and, except the Women's college, not one in Baltimore. What, with our membership of two and a quarter millions, and & constituency of about 12.000,000, we have no institution of the highest grade in the very midst of this, our deusest popuiation. Colleges we have in great number and of excellent quality. They are worthy of ali honor, and a university in Washington shouid be heiptul to them by encouraging the thirst for education, and so multipiying the number of students who shall seek instruction in them. But we must confess that, after the diploma at the college, we do little for the student. We Americans are too eager to drop our student on commence- | ment day. He needs a special course of study for his career, a speciai professional traiuing, te give him that minute agd concrete prepara- tion for the highest intellectual productiveness, ‘This is what the National university is to do: | To fit the student for that particular field for | which nature has designed him. A university | tTial progress of the race—and_ then went on | in these later days must be au institution whose | doors are wide open to both young men and young women alike. WASHINGTON AS A SEAT OF LEARNING. “But why should Washington be selected as | the site of our new university?” We answer: There is not « city in the land which com- | pares with this in its far-reaching power, but especially in its facilities for students. A University in Washington does not need to) @stablish a general library, for the national librury, with the special libraries and the Various collections, numbers a million of | Volumes, and every day this number is in- creasing. Then there are the following socie- ties and collections. as we are informed by Dr. Welling, the honored president of the Colum- bian univ: 2 7 Smithsonian Institution, the Natio the G the Bureau of Ethnology, the Pateut Office, the Army Medical Museum, the Naval Museum of Hygiene, the Weather Bureau, the Coast Sur- vey, the Bureau of Hydrography, the National Observatory, the Agricultural Department, the Botanical Gerden, the Department of Educa- tion and others. The National Academy of Sciences holds its annual meetings here. The American Historical Association holds its anoual mectings here and deposits its collec- tions im the Smithsonian Institution. If an institution should endeavor to place before its students such facilities as the government now pplies to ali who desire to embrace them It would require an outlay of €20,000,000. The government annually expends $3,000,000 in i scientific facilities—precisely such facilities as the students of a university need @nd can well enjoy. Washington is not only the political, the social and the scientific Center, but is fast getting to be th literary center of the Uuited States. A university here, With its students enjoving the best facilities which the land affords, is what the mation needs In Dr. Goode's ex- cellent monograph on the “Beginnings of American Science” he informs us that While turoughout the nation there is one per- 80D interested im science to 10,000 who are pa and in Cambridge there is one to every 50 in New Haven one to every 1,100; in then, is where ton there is one sciewtific man to We propose to lay the foundations for our na- ecological Survey, white male inhabitants. Here, be a university, even the spire being found— the Washington monument. A pinch of per- fume scattered here could be scented in Texas; a drop of poison administered here had its ef- fect in California, “Now is the time,” said the doctor. “This is the era—another word and I'll stop—and this is the man, (indicating Bishop Hurst). I met him thirty years ago at a German university and we stood together looking the dizzy heights that had to be climbed. “Row I want tosee himat the head of a great university ere.” Dr. Bartlett concluded with a eulogium of Bishop Hurst as a scholar, a man and a Chris- tian, REPRESENTATIVE MORSE’S REMARKS. Representative E. A. Morse of Massachusetts was called upon and said that he had once heard of a man who belonged to the Society of Friends and who was asked the difference be- tween the Friends and the Methodists, to which he replied that the Friend was a Quaker and the Methodist an earthquaker. There were some earthquakers in Washington. The question had arisen as to where the great uni- versity should be located. That question had been settled; it must be in this city, beneath the shadow of the Washingtoa monument, in the finest capital city on the face of the earth. Fox once said that'a good Quaker ought to light up the country for ten miles around. A Methodist of Baptist or Congregationalist or Presbyterian ought to do as well. How much light might be spread by a great national uni- versity! Mr. Morse said it was popular in famous by — and There was time and ilities int of nature, here there opportunities. He wanted a — from Bishop Hurst that the university should be open not only to students but also to the alumni of all other colleges who want to dectedhcvsh a ecpootos og research. Bishop lewman said he want department of states- manshij sity, an jour . coming a profession as honorable and as influ- ential as law, medicine or the ministry.” Financial matters then secupied Bishop New- man’s attention. He spoke flatteringly of the congregation and said he was satisfied that their hearts were with the pro; He told an anecdote of how Hamilton Fish once asked a rich judge to subscribe for a memorial to George Washington and_how the judge said that he always eulogized Washington's charac- ter—in fact kept him continually in his heart— but he could do uo more than Ez gore thies; he would not subscribe. Then sai ih: “Judge, if you have George Washington in your heart he’s in a mighty tight place. SUBSCRIPTIONS ANNOUNCED. Dr. Corey announced the following subscrip- tions as already received: M. G. Emery, $1,000; Benjamin Charlton, $1,000; William Libbey, 1,000; Leland Stanford, @1,000; John F. Goucher, $1,000; John F. Waggaman, €2,000; BR. H. Goldsborough, @2,000; B. H. Warner, $1,000; Mrs, E.

Bishop Newman then called on the col- lectors—Messrs, A. B. Duvall, A. D, Lynch, George La Fetra, Rev. George Elliott, H. B. Moulton, 8. 8. Henkle, 8. H. Walker, S. S. Wescott, M. D. Peck. F. A. Harding, B. F. Fuller, T. W. Tallmadge, Rev. C. H. Richard- son and Rev. M. F. B. Rice—and started them out on the work of solicitation, while Messrs. Fred Tasker and Geo, H. Harries made entry of the subscriptions as they were received. The first amount announced was that of $100 from Representative E. A. Morse, and then came $1,000 from Rev. C. W. Baldwin. —? Hurst announced that a friend had requeste: him to give $250, and Dr. Corey said be hada friend who desired to contribute $1,000, Two ‘bundred and filty members’ of _ the | Methodist denomination at South Bend, jInd., were pledged by Mra Clem | Studebaker for $1 each. Among those | who coutributed in response to the collector's | appeals were: Robert H. Phillips, $100; Gen. | Patton, #500; Susan B. Anthony, #100; B. H. Stinemetz, #100; Gen. Cyrus Bussey, #100; Dr. M. D. Peck, $100; ‘1. W. Tallmadge, $100.

His sentiment, however, was fives and not a few tens. The total was #4,503. It was announced that Mr. Matthew G. Emery and one other gentleman had agreed to give | than a dusty volume. \h of a different description and he wanted to sing “Oh, to be something.” The congrega- tion applauded this idea and Mr. Morse sat down. SENATOR HAWLEY'S SPEECH, A bymn was sung and then Senator Hawley was introduced. He said that a national university had been discussed for more than one hundred Years—a university which was to be founded and supported by the general government. The country had been waiting for such an in- stitution and he was giad it did not have to wait much longer. He agreed with Dr. Bartlett when that gentleman said that Bishop Hurt was the man for the work, “for,” said the Sena- tor, “he came to see me and in five minutes made me promise to be here and speak. When he had gone I wondered why.” Referring to the part Methodism had always taken in edu- cational matters the Senator talked of the Oneida seminary, where he had for associates Bishops Andrews and Newman, Senator Stan- ford, Charles Dudley Warner, Prof. Willard Fish anda number of others who reflected credit on the institution. Methodism hud won its eminence. It was meet that Methodists should take the flag and say, ‘Fall in here; march behind us.” The unive: as he un- derstood it, was to be a university in the best sense and not merely acollege. It was better on the whole that it be not a national univer- sity in the sense that it was to be sustained by Congress, It would be a great university ai how, and its promoters would escape a great many embarrassments. In the first place and by no means the least annoying of these would be the stilted debate as to the constitutional right of Congress to aid national education. [Laugh- ter.] Senator Hawley said he was glad in his heart to know that this would be a university where it would be quite in order to mention the Lord God and to invoke His blessing. [Ap- plause.] Unfortunately it was the fashion in many educational institutions not to have re- ligious services, or if ther did they were care- ful to invite a variety of preachers, so as to souud the whole gamut of belief from him that believed very much to him that believed al- most nothing. In such places it was regarded as rather “bad form” to attend prayers. “I'm tired of that,” said the Senator. THE LIBRARIES OF WASHINGTON, Then he went on to give statistics as to the libraries here—the helps to study. The Con- | gressional library contains 630,000 volumes and | has besides inuumerable engravings. In this immense collection of books were to be found | splendid law and medical libraries, the latter | enriched by Dr. Toner’s munificence. The sur- | gical and medical library at the Army Medical Museum had in it 80,000 volumes, and the | museum was the tinest one of morbid anatomy in the world, The State Department had his- tory and diplomacy to the extent of 25,000 vol- | umes,while the Patent Ottice collection of books numbered 50,000. There was also the great model room and the immense number of de- signs and plans, affording the students in me- | cuanics opportunities to be found nowhere | else. There were 18,000 volumes of the hbrary of the Agricultural Department and 20,000 in the bureau of Education. The Naval Observa- tory was equipped with 12,000 books; the War Department had 19,000, the Navy Department 17,000 and the Geological Survey 15,000, all there were in this city—accessible to stu- dents 889,000 books belonging to the govern- ment. The libraries of educational institu- tions made the figures exceed a million. A CITY OF CULTURE. “This Washington,” said the Senator, creasingly a city of culture. The growth is very clear to me. I have lived here for eighteen years and I can see the change it mental and morai atmosphere as easily as I see it in its streets, its parks, its public build- ings. “I know a place—a scientific club—” he went on, “where Tecan get almost any kind of in- formation. I can stroll in there in the evening and find it in a man—a live man is much better “is in- I need only to touch im, for he is full of his subject (maybe he'll give me a chance to ask an occasional questio and I'll get a lecture that can’t be had any- where else for mouey.” THE SCIENCE OF GOVERNMENT. After depicting in bright colors the future of this city the Senator eulogized the National Maseum—the place in which to study the ma- to talk of Washington as the place in which to study the science of government. He felt as- sured that it would be a great advantage to the country to have three, four or five thousand | young men go out from this university every | few years with a thorough knowledge as to how the goverument is conducted. There would be less dippancy as to this goverument then; fewer peopie who make fun of that which they know too littie of. It was the best govern- ment any nation ever saw. No other govern- ment insists that there shall be a quorum in its legislature when public business is being trans- cted. [Laughter—which the Senator apparently expect]. He spoke warmly of the faithfulness of the public servauts in Congress andthe departments and paid an eloquent Gieate tote greatness of American Presi- dents. “Our government,” said he, “is the steadiest of all governments and has been for a hundred years. Upon the book it is the truest govern- ment that ever existed. All men, upon the book, are free and equal. Ajl men have equal rights at the ballot box, the jury box and the cartridge box. It may be that the creed is bet- ter than the people. Educate us; teach us to live up to ourereed.” [(Applause.] BISHOP NEWMAN'S ADDRESS. “As I entered this room tonight,” said Bishop John P. Newman, “I heard Bishop Hurst de- scribing that ridge, that nameless ridge, on which the university buildings are to stand. Let us have a christening here tonight. Let us call that ridge University ridge. (Applause. } Let those beautiful heights be wn as Uni- versity heights. ; her in the land of one flag, ous oom stitution.” The bishop said the Methodist church had schools, ac: in aw but it was needed was a university—a for investigation. Heretofore country had been repeating what had been done al not for waut of original thought but eae take of time and mone; and Har- institute m Lon- $1,000 a year for five years, This brought the total amount subscribed to the present time up to $33,550, BISHOP HURST'S CLOSING REMARKS. Bishop Hurst, in closing the meeting, said: “I think that the presence of this audience this evening—not by any means a pleasant evening—is an indication that you believe in | the work we have undertaken. I knew that, however, before you came, and on behalf of all the friends of this proposed university I thank you for your presence and for the con- tributions you have given this evening and especially grateful am I to those who have spoken to us and s0 strongly presented the claims of this institution. ‘The people of the country will know that you have an interest in | the matter here in Washington. The money | that you have given will have its influence | from Sandy Hook in the east to the remotest | west, and not only to give, may I also ask you | to pray, that God's blessing may rest upon this undertaken; for without that the millions are as worthless as sand; but let God’s blessing come and we will build for the age: “All Hail the Power of Jesus’ name” was then sung and when the doxology had peen pronounced by Kev. Dr. Elliott the congrega- tion dispersed. “UNIVERSITY SUNDAY.” An informal discussion followed, and in its H course it was suggested that the Methodist | church set apart one Sunday in each year which shall be known as University Sunday, and when collections shall be taken up all over the land for the building of this great institution. ‘This met with instant approval and the board of bishops will fix the day. suena Ee FLACK TO BE IMPEACHED. Gov. Hill Notifies the Sheriff of the Charges Against Him. | | Sheriff Flack, his son Will and Joseph Meeks had hardly got over congratulating themselves Monday on the postponement of their sen- tence for four days when a bomb was thrown iuto the camp of the conspirators by Governor Hill. Col. E. L, Judson, military secretary to the governor, walked into the sheriff's office at 3:20 yesterday afternoon with Detective Sergeant Crowley and asked for the sheriff. Col. Jud- son was admitted to Mr. Flack’s private oftice. The sheriff greeted the caller, whereupon Col, Judson hande eriff Flack formal charges preferred against him to Governor Hill vy Attorney General Tabor, and the sheriff re- ceived the papers with an air that he expected them. He looked them through in the pres- ence of the military secretary, but made no comment. He acknowledged service with a bow aud Coi, Judson withdrew. Governor Hill's notice to the sheriff is as fol- low To James A. Frack, sheriff of the city and county of New York: “You are hereby notitied that charges have been preterred agai you by the Hon.
