ELOQUENT ADDRESSES BY EARNEST MEN IN SUP- PORT OF THE PLAN—HERE IN THE CAPITAL OF THE NATION 18 WHERE IT DELONGS—THE BENE- FIT TO EDUCATION AND RELIGION TO ACCRUE. Twelve bishops of the Methodist Episcopal eburch were at Metropolitan M.E. Church last night, either on or in the vicinity of the pulpit, and they were all there to testify to the neces- sity which exists for the Methodist National University, which will undoubtedly be built in this city. The absentees were Bishops Foster. Foss, Mallalis; and Newman. The spacious edifice was well filled; there were a few vacant seats in the rear of the great room and in the galleries, but they were not numerous, The Probabilities are that they, too, would have been filled had it been more generally under- stood that there was not going to be a collec- tion, nor was it the intention of the managers Of the affair toask for subscriptions, A WAVE OF SACRED 80NO. “We will commence the exercises by apart of the eleven hundredth hymn, the venerable Bishop Bowman, as he advanced to the front of the pulpit. There was a rustling of leaves—hymn-book leaves—while Organist Caulfield was calling forth the preliminary notes, and then the great congregation san; the stirring old tune “Mendon,” the words “Great God Our hyn With humbie t and We offer Thee our sux of The singing was all that could be expected from au audience that had no leader. A stout gentleman, who stood near the organ in the rear gallery. played the melody ou a cornet, and established for himself a reputation as an accurate and strong-lunged reader of hymn music. Bishop Joyce offered the opening prayer. which was pertinent and bricf, and then “Cor- nation” was sung by the congregation in a very spirited manner. BISHOP BOWMAN'S REMARKS. At the conclusion of the singing Bishop Bow- man put down bis hymn book and, addressing he audience. said that he supposed it was right and proper thet he should give utterauce toa few remarks. He was there because it was the duty of a Methodist minister to take the appointment given him: he bad been appointed to the place of presiding oiticer by Bishop Hurst and he was going to attend to the duties Of the office as best he coud. He was there of right he also asserted, for he was the great Srandfather of the present board of bishops. “These are my grandchild nd great grand- ebildren all around me,” said he, pointing: to the other bishops, “‘and nice-looking fellows they are, as you can sec.” ; uties of the board of bishops and their reiationship with the other authorities of the church were succinctly discussed and then Bishop Bowinan went onto say a little about the fact that for twenty-seven years the church had kept him constantly connected with some | of its educational institutions, although he bad started out to be a pastor and desired to be one. “I would rather be pastor of such a congregation as this.” said he, “than be Presi- dent of the United States and live in the White House.” “A great deal pleasanter,” remarked Bishop Warren, and the senior assented, “Yes, in every way.” ‘Then Bishop Lowman endeavored to impress upon his hearers the amount of responsibility which the city of Washington would have to | carry in this matter of a National Methodist | University and toid of a * community: that had given $130,000 to the foundation and sup- | oe of an educational institution that would ea pigmy alongside the one whch was now under discusvion, He had heaci tn proposed | University referred to with inte-):t and pl.

The building >: this great university Was not the work of one year or of two or three years; it took time and lots of it, A LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT. Announced by the presiding officer Bishop Horst read the fol. »wing letter: -* Ex Bxssor Jou~ F. Hv. My Dear Biskoy from the city Big to fui 10: Oct, 31, 1890. D.C: im to be absent that I sualt | the chure clusion, “that the structure in this city that seems to me most impressive of all, that greets my eye when I approach this city in my re- peated visits and to which I bid farewell with a feeling of sadness, is not the Capitol, with its commanding dome; it is the unlettered shaft of purest marble that perpetuates the undying name of Washington. Dear friends, yee ae rearing not a villar of decaying warble; you are building not a monument that shall throw its morning and evening shadows athwart the land, but you are building a glorious Pharos that shall be a beacon to ail truth-seeking souls throughout all the stretch of the eapen | aoe May God help you to build wisely an well” WHAT BISHOP VINCENT SAID, Bishop J. H. Vincent, who was the next speaker, started out with tho assertion that the institution must be a great one. Not an ordi- nary school, nor even an ordinary or extraor- dinary college; it must be a university. It must promote advanced education, professional education. It was a fitting thing that the Methodist church should start out to do thi great work. The Methodist church was a uni- versity church; it was born in a university; its early Infancy was passed within the walls of ia Linecia Collages ia stead, 6 prove that the higher education was notan idea of modern Methodism Bisbop Vincent read an article adopted in conference more than a bundred years ago in which higher education was ar- gued to be a necessity. It was fitting and proper that the university should be in this city, and it must be remembered that although twenty years of time and labor might be re- uired to complete it, it must be nothing less than the grandest university on this continent. He tavored the location on University Heights of the Methodist board of education and would make that place the venter of educational in- formation. DENOMINATIONAL BUT STILL NATIONAL. In conclusion Bishop Vincent said: “I am glad of one thing and that is this—that the national university may be denomintional and still national; that it may be denomina- tional, and catholic, and national; that it may be loyal to the last thought which it holds as a distinct religious organization and yet open its doors to peoples of all faiths and place the flag church or the educational institutions of the land may suggest; and while we are most loyal to our own church we are at the same time, without the siightest compromise, thoroughly ‘loyal to the land we love, and waile we |train every young man and every |young woman’ who may come to | in Christian faith and in loyalty to the charch under the auspices of which the institution has been established, we shall not teach one thought nor pledge them to loyalty to one idea incompatible with the most complete patriot- ism; and that end attained a great end has been gained for this goodiy city of Washington and for the nation it represents.” “I will now,” said Bishop Bowman, “intro- duce to you Bishop Warren of Denver, who lives under the shadow of a university.” WHAT BISHOP WARREN BELIEVES. “That university,” retorted Bishop Warren, as he quickly took his place before the audience, “is a sun that emits light and casts no shadow,” and while the people were yct | langhing at lus words and his bright, snappy | way of uttering them he went on to say that | the Methodist church had more colleges, more | students and more money invested in ‘educa- the face of the globe. The school was always the first thing established ata mission of the Methodist church. Extremely interesting were | the bishop's remarks on education, and on the | possibilities which were in man,as in other and | less consequential of God's creations. He be- | lieved in the drawing out of latent possibilities, a something that could only be done by educa- tion. He believed in educating clay into brick and into aluminum; he believed in the educa- tion of sand into glass—into the lens through which might be more clearly seen the glories of other worlds than this; he believed in tho education of zine and acids into a fire that would go under any sea unquenched and over any land, bearing a burden of thought and language; he believed in the education of coal into power and of water into steam. He wanted ie highest possible degree of education; that, and that only, could develop the slumbering | mental powers, MISERLINESS AND LIBERALITY CONTRASTED. Pointed reference was made to lives that were devoted to low idcas, and especially strong was the satire on miserliness; on the striving to get that there may be more to grasp. “It is,” said the bishop, “a never-end- ing round of raising a little more corn to fatten a few more hogs to sell for a little more | money to buy a little more land to raise a lit tle more corn to fatten a few more hogs to sell for a little more money to—and so on.” This iJustration brought alaugh to the surface and then, with his audience in the best of humor, Bishop Warren talked of liberality and the good it does, He stated that in ten years in Fesponse to his personal solicitations he had collected 3700,000 for educational purposes in jit was a common thing nowadays tor it to rain gold, Instances of Denver's gen- es, to found at tue and T hope will 1 re. path vot Cetve, the eff tive support and sy ali the memcers cf your great church.

DISPATCH FROM VICE PRESIDENT MORTON. The epistle was applauded and then Bishop Hurst read the following telegram from Vice President Morton: “It would give me pleasure if could nccept | Four invitation, but 1 must vote at Khineciitf on Tuesday.” Bishop Hurst also read the resolution adopted by the board :f bishops commending the idea and the plans of the proposed univer- sity. BISHOP NINDE’S ADDRESS. “Tam heartily glad to be here tonight,” said Bishop Ninde, after being introduced by Bishop Bowman, and he looked every word of it. He | said he presumed that each one invited to speak had upon his hand and heart simiar | enterprises tothe one which had called the People before him together. That, however, had no deleterious effect, for no city in this land stood so — and alone 1m this country as this city of Washington. [Applause.] Woe | find one section of the country prejudiced against another, and so we find places envious ofeach other. It used to be said years ago that St. Louis was somewhat envious of Chi- cago. and in these later times we begin to think that Chicago is a little jealous of New York, but nobody is jealous of Washington. We | don't mind if Washington does grow and thrive: if its population does increase if people say that you have the most attractive avenues in the world, if they say you have the | Most elegant private homes and the grandest public buildings, we all rejoice in it. There is n @ fisherman by the sea that does not Fejoie there is nota trapper in the woods of the north- west that does not rejoice, for we are ali glorified in the glory of the nation’s capital, and so I | shy that the location of this institution com- | mends it to popular favor and insures its | success, WHAT THE UNIVERSITY sHOUED BR. The greatness of the country was then toached upon and the speaker said it was a land @f great prairies, great mountains, gre and great rivers, he continued “we have reat drouth and great floods at the educational | olicy of the Methodist church was changing. ustitutions of learning had beea multiplied ‘until 1¢ was evident that instead of str. then- ing they weakened, and now had begun the greater policy of centralization—the gathering Up of the scattered strands and the weaviug of them together im oue great cable. Very em Phatic was he in his statement that Methodists | did not want a paltry thing to represent educa. tional Methodiam at the national capital. The University would have to be truly great and he had faith enough to believe that it would be eat’ =6im)6levery§= respect. His faith ai been = inspired == by —_ conversation with Bishop Hurst, who had talked of the site, of the buildings, of the apparatus of the students, and of ‘many Other essentials. He described the chilly trip he made, in company with the other bishops, Out to the site. hus first impression was that Bishop Hurst was a dreamer. The second thought «aid, “Let him dream on, for the lendid dream always precedes the splendid ity, aud that dream shall find its fuifiil- ment. “Aud.” said he, “the students, by and by, will come thronging to the capital city and I should not be surprised if in the coming time students even from the classic shores of New England should come hither to find in this cen- ter facilities fora broader education and the graces of a rarer culture.” ‘The university should be a popular instita- tion, for education was not the luxury of the Fich, but the uece ssity of the poor. The gates re erosity toward the university there were cited | and then the bishop said that noone would dream of comparing Denver with Washington. Notwithstanding this he chalienged Washing- ton to go aud beat Denver, if it could. The bishop then called to remembrance the plan A. T.Stewart once had for disbursing €10, 000,000 for the public welfare, a plan that yan- ished in thin air because it was neglected until death came. shop Warren closed by asking the conundrum, “Where is Stewart's wealth now?” That provoked a ripple of laughter across the faces of those who knew something of the famous Stewart case. The address was frequently applauded, MAJ. HU. 0, CLAUGHTON TALKS. Two verses of “My Country, of Thee,” were sung and then Bishop Bowman intro- duced H. O, Claughton of this city and a mem- ber of the faculty of the National University in existence here. Mr. Claughton was enthu- siastic and quoted authorities from George Washington down to the present time to show that there should be in this city a great na- tional institution of learning. There was no division of opinion on that point; the only jestion was who should buiid it. Even na- tional legislators had been stirred up on this subject—stirred as much as they possibly could be on any subject which was not political. Mr. Claughton declared himself a Presbyterian, but he would be delighted if the Methodists would only establish a great national university here. When they did that he could assure them that the present “National University” would yield up its honors and its title, BISHOP NEWMAN NOT PRESENT. Bishop Newman was down on the program for a speech, but he failed to respond to Bishop Bowman's jocular appeals. Then the venerable presiding officer talked pleasantly, charmingiy, of the pleasures of liberality: told how he had yesterday been promised a five-hundred-dollar subscription for the university: promised to do what he could in the subscribing line; wished audibly that he was a Jay Gould—in pocket and then closed the meeting by calling upon the congregation to arise and sing the dox- ology. Dr. Corey pronounced the benediction and that ended a most enjoyable occasion, Many of the bishops eid impromptn reeep- tions and nearly ail of them had an opportunit to shake hands with Sam Small, who had been an attentive and unobserved listener from the melodious Alpha to the prayerful Omega, —— A Verdict for $100 Damages. In the case of Mrs. Arnold against the Dis- trict of Columbia for $10,000 damages resulting to her premises by the overflowing of a dofect- ive sewer in 1554, mentioned in yesterday's Sra, the jury in the cireuit court rendered a verdict of $100 for the plaintiff.

In poiat of fact, # may be truthfully said that it is without a» equal in this respect any where in the world, These averments are borne out by the figures given below, which are compiled from the sworn weekly statements printed in the paper on each Monday in the year, and condensed from the sworn tabular statements showing the average daily circulation of the paper during the year 1889, published in Tus Sram on the 18th of January, 15%, Briefly stated, the points upon which the above claim is based are these: That— 1. The Star has three times the ciren- lation of any other paper in Washing- ton! 2, The Star's circulation in Washing» ton is dou! that of all the other dally Papers published in the city added to gether!! 3. The Star bas a larger and fuller circulation in the city where printed, im proportion to reading and purchas: ing population, than any other news- . | paper in the world!!! 4, The Star has the largest regular any Uwe-cent afternoon paper im the United States I!!! In support of these claims and to show the constantly increasing circulation of the paper, attontion is invited to the figures following: PALLY CIRCULATION IW I8S5-S6-87-88-8R, 1883. 1886.

Of this number, 21,142 were delivered daily by regular carriers at the homes of permanent sub ecribers. The remaining 6,740 copies represent the sales over the office counter, at the news stands, end by nowsboys. But of this latter number a very large proportion is supplied regularly to per mancot residents of the city living in lodgings, &c. (not householders), so that its whole circula tion may be literally said to be in the family circle, While its aggregate circulation there fore gives Tue Sran a distinctine and enviable position im modern journalism, the fullness of its home circulation, the extent to which it is relied upon by members of the household, and particularly by the pur- chasing portion of the community, are the marked characteristics of the paper, to which no other daily Journal now published can furnish a parallel, This is no idle boast on the part of the paper. It is a well established fact, demonstrated to the full satisfaction of the sagacious and enter- prising business men of Washington, who seek ‘and know where to find THE LARGEST RETURNS FROM THE MONEY PAID OUT FOR ADVERTISING. This is proven by the | growth of Tue Stan's advertising patronage | Nothing can more surely (illustrate the | esteem in which any article is beld by the public than a constantly increasing demand for it—day by day, week by week, month by the face of ad verse claims and pretentiouscompetition. The | figures following tell the story on this point: | BUMBER OF NEW ADVERTISEMLNTS *RINTED Et 1S85-86-87-85-80, ISS6, 1NS7. 188s, 158% 3,200 3,615 4,076 4,556 3,064 3,547 3,924 4,520 3,806 4,669 4,603 5,495 4,353 5.178 4,986 5.888 4,197 5,395 5,171 6,033 3,938 4,522 4,606 5,529 3.235 3GSL 3915 4,489 2582 3.170 3.508 4,604 4,208 4,517 4,906 5,559 4,579 5,313 5,412 6,589 4,250 5,038 4,659 6,107 3,596 5,093 5,007 5,793 Torat 41,499 45,910 54,038 54,801 65,523 But it is not alone in numbers that the grest increase of advertising is shown. The larger space required for advertisements during the year 1889 as compared with that occupied i= 1888 is even more striking.
