Little or nothing stated in the com- munication printed on Saturday, to which he essayed a reply, was in reality contradicted by him, though a pretense was made to that effect. ‘In fact its statements could not well be gain- said. Every allegation made therein was abso- lately true, and, in spite of ali Mr. Thomas says, the fact remains that the electric light company has not kept faith with its customers, whe ivate individuals or public officials, and that it has entered intoundertakings which it has not carried out, and which it must have known at the time it conld not carry out. That gentleman's claim that the company is utilizing all the power it can get and 1s trying to get more was conceded. It does not, however, meet the point at issue, which is that its man- agement had no business to agree to furnish ht until it had sufficient power to produce it. ‘Neither will the public accept the view ad- vanced by Mr. Thomas that the company acted wisely in leaving the streets of the city in dark- ness in order that private customers might be supplied, or that it had a right to do this. On the other hand, that action was « most danger- ous and wholly inexcusable procedure on its part and if the pablic authorities consented to they also laid themsclves open to grave sen- sure. Ax to the case of the Corcoran Gallery, it was, of course, very kind and wholly unselfish in Mr. ‘Thomas to propose to the trustecs of that m- Stituticn to keep it open Sunday evenings, when there is less than the usual demand in the city for electric lights, thus enabling hira to find acustomer foranarticle ke could not then Otherwise well. For the same reason he would doubtless be glad to sce all the places of amusement in the city and the marke: houses, as well. kept open Sunilay evenings. In conclusion, I repeat, “Let us have light,” Rot explanations that do notexplain. FLL. pbesanteto I. C. A. New Year Reception.

Gilbert F. Williams, made an address on the words “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.” (Luke, ii, 14.) ‘The children were out in full force, the infant school alone filling the chancel in their neat little chairs and all the space in front of the lower chancel steps and the middle range of pews.

The fourth annual meeting of the American Society of Churck History was begun last ening in the Columbian University buiding. The membership of this pody i- compored of | ministers of ail denominations who are tnter- | ested in the study of church history. The session was opened last evening with prayer b the president, Kev. Dr-@lilip chai of the | Union Theological Seminary of New York | Dr. Schaff also made a brief address. ‘The year's report was read by the secretary, Rev Samuel M. C. Juckson o: New York He | reported that during the past year two mem- bers had died. One of them was the famous French church historias, Preeseuse, shose “Life of Jesus” was one of the most popular refuta- tions of Renau’s teachings. ‘The other death | reported was that of ev Churies W. Bennett, D.D., of Evanston, Il, a professor of torical theology. ‘The eccretary ais read a list of the principal denominations of the country who had been provided for in the sertee ot denominational history and the name o* the author of each. COLUMBUS’ RELIGIONS MOTIVES. Prof. William K. Gillett of the University of the City of New York, read an interesting paper on the religious motives of Christopher Colum- bus, in which he expressed the conclusion that though ehristianization may have taken place, there 1s no proof that Columbus ever set forth any religious consideration us a motive to 1n- fiuence the uction of the King and Queeu of pain. Columbus of his own accord did work in religious instruction, he stated, but the de- sire was one subordinate to the desire to secure goid. ts ‘The second paper was read by Prof. Williston Walker of the Hartford Theological Seminary. The subject of the paper was “The Heads of Agreement,” and the union of Congregation- alists and Presbyterians based on them 1a Lon- don, 1691. ji ‘The last paper was on ‘Christian Unity and the Kingdom of Heaven,” and it was read by Mr. Thomas Davidsou of New York city. Sess Dr. Rea Better Dr. James Rea, whose serious ilIness—the re- sult of a second stroke of paralysis—was noted in Tae Sraz some two weeks ago, is somewhat better. a American Dialect Society. The American Dialect Society held its third annual meeting at the Columbian University at 8 o'clock lust evening. The only business transacted was the election of officers, reading of the secretary and treasurer's reports and the discussion of the society's periodical, “Dialect Notes.” ‘The old board of officers was re-elected, as follows: President, Prof. J. M. Hart, Cornell University, Ithaca, N. Y. i J. M. Garnett, University of Virginia; seere- tary, Prof. Edward S. Sheldon, Harvard Uni- versity, Cambridge, Masa; treamrer, C. H.

When the next Maryland legisiature meets, on the first Monday in January, an instance will be presented which in all probability has never been paralleled in the history of the country. Among the members who will then take their seats will be Col. James G. Berret, who was a member of the same body fifty-five years ago. Col. Berret was born in that part of Maryland now included in Carroll county, and was the first delegate from that political division after its creation, in 1836, or there- abouts Since that time he was for many years a citizen of Washington, filling success offices of Postmaster, Mayor of the Cit Police Commissioner. Still retaining a Winter residence here, he some time ago renewed his alleginuce to his old home, and bis neighbors returned the compliment thus paid them by nominating him without opposition, and elect- ing him to the same position they honored him with so long ago. Notwithstanding the great inpse of time, not 4 few who voted at the election tuen were active and interested parti- cipants in the poli last fall, an 1 among his suj porters now were several of those who oppased as weil a8 a number of those who favored him then. Col. Berret is « remarkably well preserved gentleman, of seventy-seven, and his Washing- ton friends feel safe in predicting that when he resumes his old seat there will be found among his colleagues few if ay more attentive, more courteous, more highly respected or more in- fluential than he. a The Golden Crosa, Potomee Commandery, United Order of the Golden Cross, last evening elected the follow- ing officers for the present term: mander, Franklin B.
