Murderer Delfino but a Little While in the Death Chamber. RIVALING THE GUILLOTINE'S SPEED. Another Successful Electrocution at Sing Sing. O BURNING OF FLESH. SING SING, N. Y., Dec. 4.—John Delfino was killed by electricity in Sing Sing: prison at 11:48 o'clock this morning. Delfino shot and killed Mrs. Catharine Gessel, an Italian woman, a year ago in a tenement house in Brooklyn. At 1143 a current of 1,760 volts rushed through Delfino’s body, straightening it up in the chair and making the straps creak. For an instant the full current was on, then it was reduced to 60 volts and after a few seconds increased to 500 volts, then back agais to 160. After being on just fifty sec- onds by the official time, it was turned off. The form in the chair had not moved af- ter the first contact. The doctors pressed forward and listened at his heart; felt the pulse, and declared the man dead. The doctors agreed that death was instantaneous and painless. ‘The time that elapsed from the entrance of Delfino to the time that he was pro- nounced dead was just four misutes. The autopsy showed that the organs were in a healthy condition and there were no signs of burning where the current was applied. There was nothing to indicate the cause of death, A TALK ON ART. Some Ex, essions From Mr. Bruce-Joy an English Sculptor. Mr. Albert Bruce-Joy, one of England's most distinguished sculptors, has been in the city for a few days past on his way back to New York from an extensive trip through the west. He goes to Philadelphia today to be the guest of Col. Louden Snow- den, ex-minister to Greece, at a dinner to be given in honor of Mr. Bruce-Joy this evening. A Star reporter had a delightful chat with him yesterday at the Shoreham, where he has been stopping. “I have been in this country for six or seven months,” said Mr. Bruce-Joy, “and it is provoking that I cannot spend more than three days here. 1 was here three years ago, and made some charming friends. No, I was not at Chicago in an official ca- pacity at all. I have found that it does not pay to be a member of a jury at such oc- casions, for one has such a hard time be- tween the scores of really fine works of art. You see our exhibition was limited to the very best, and so judging was reduced to the process qf refining the finest. One makes enemies easily enough, anyhow, without hurting the feelings of artists by making awards at an exhibition. Art at the Fair. “I think that the art exhibition at the fair compared excellently with those of other occasions. In point of numbers it ex- ceeded some of the expositions. But of course one missed many of the master- pieces of Europe that could not well be brought here, owing to the great distance | and the enormous danger of destruction. It seems to me that what was there of pure- ly American product showed that a great advance has been made in the higher cia: es of art works of late years. You have here some men who are as good the best on the continent. The standard is high, too. “I have been most particularly struck with the great promise there is in store for America. It ts wonderful to contemplate. The western country, I predict, will soon be the great scene of activity. Ican see it a hundred years from now, as densely pop lated and/as far advanced as the most | crowded sections of the east, and going on | toward culture. It is a marvelous pros- pect. The east is of course more like the | old country, but it lacks art culture in places. There is little in Chicago now. That is a miraculous city, however. I am almost convinced that it is to be the me-| tropolis before many years. What America | needs in art, of course, is a central school | that will set the standard for the entire | country. Such a school should be estab- shed in the metropolis and encouraged and broadened at every possibility. As to Sculpture. “I am sorry that there is not more being done here in the way of portraiture in sculpture. That is my own line, and I am most particularly interested fn it, of course. I have had the good fortune to make busts and statues of some of the most dintin- guished men of England. Gladstone and|/ Bright, the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Marquis of Salisbury have been put into marble by me. But there is not enough of | a feelirg in favor of portrait busts. I should | like to get away from the annoying require- | ments of coats and trousers. The head is | the thing we want to preserve in our mem- lories. In a few families there have been efforts made to secure likenesses of all the members, and these are valued at the high- est cost by their owners. There are not many, though, who care to have their own | features or those of their children or rela- | tives, done in white stone. Yet, I think I see a change in this direction. I believe the fashion is being set and the world will not be slow to follow “I have had the pleasure of doing a bust sto be in the He sat for ine while he was in England, but the model was not finished until I came to Chicago th: ing.

The Ke Green Team Defeated, as Were Harvard's Freshmen—Pitts- burg Thinks the Game Brutal. The great game on Saturday at Annapo- lis between the elevens from the Navy Academy and West Point was won by the embryo admirals by the close score of 6 to 4. It was the fourth game that has been played between the two national schools, and of the four the middies have won three. The Pointers were rather the favorites on Saturday, however, and the betting was slightly in their favor, ‘The game was as close as could be, and would have been a tle but for the failure of Carson of the West Point to kick a goal after a touch-down. The two teams were as follows: West Point—Left end, Nolan; left tackle, Lott; left guard, Battle; center, Ames; right guard, Smith; right tackle, Aultman; right end, Haberson; quarter, Creden; left half back, Shelton; right half back, Stacey, and full back, Parson. Annapolis—Right end, MeCauley; right tackle, Moody; right guard, Morris; center, Kavanaugh; left guard, Kerns; left tackle, Reeves; left end, Dennett; quarter, Book- walter; left half back, Kimball: right) half back, Davidson; full back, Bagley. Umpire—-Mr. Irvine of Princeton. Referee—Mr. Vance McCormick of Yale. ‘Touch-down—Kimbail, Carson. Goal--Bagley. Time of game: Two forty-five-minute halves. The Second Half. In the second half the Navy started in with the determination to score. An off- side play at the start gave the Navy ten yards, ten more were made by Kavanaugh. A blocked kick of Carson's, repeated rushes by Davidson, assisted by Bagley, Kimball and Karns, who also carried the ball, brought it about that Kimball was pushed over the line so stubbornly defended by the West Pointers. Then Bagley kicked a difficult goal. Late in the second half, when there were but a few minutes left to play, West Point got the ball and by dint of good team play c on was enabled to touch it down just between the goal posts. The goal to follow was an easy one, but for some reason Car- son failed on his try, and the championship honors perched upon the banners of the middies. The Annapolis and West Point players closed the contests of the day in a ball given by the naval cadets to the visiting army boys. The hop took place in the new boat house, and there was a large crowd present. Mrs. Phythian, wife of the super- intendent of the academy, received. WILL DIVIDE $30,000. Financial Side of the Yale-Princeton Foot Ball Game. Mr. H. S. Van Duzer, the treasurer of the committee of the University Athletic Club that managed the hig Thanksgiving day feot ball game, is, according to the New York Times, still hard at work trying to close up the accounts. It will be several days yet, he sa$s, before everything ts closed tp. He has figured out very closely the attendance at the game, though, and can form a close estimate of the receipts and expenses. In all the stands, opened. and covered, and in the boxes there were 14,519 persons. Twenty-seven coaches were in line, and putting the average at 25 per- sons on each coach makes 675 more. About 9,000 admission tickets were sold; there were 600 employes and policemen, 150 mem- bers of the press, 100 coachers, substitutes and trainers, and 250 persons 'in the club house. This makes a total of 25,24 in the big inclosure. ‘Then probably 500 fakirs and others got in without being accounted for-at the box oilice. The receipts from all sources will be about $41,000. The com- mittee expects to get in neariy $30,000, and $ two colleges—Yale and Princeton—for sale. ‘The expenses will be in the neighborhood of $11.00) The rent of Manhattan Field Was $6,000, the carpenter's bill for putting the stands in repair, erecting the fence around the field and building the box stand on the north side was $2,000. Rent of office, salary of clerks, printing, stationery, post- age and incidentals will amount to $2,000 and Bull and Thompson's bill for handling the gates and ushers in the stands will be about $2,000 more. This will leave $30,000 to be divided equally between the two col- leges. Mr. Van Duzer says he has about $2,500 rebate to return to applicants for tickets. Many applied for three seats on the cov- ered stands and sent $6. It was impossible to supply all the demands, and when the | reserved seats ran out, tickets for seats on the open stands were sent. These tickets were worth $1.50 each, and the difference will be refunded very soon. coe LIAN REPUBLIC, Talk of Establishing One With Rome as a District of Columb: Harold Frederic, the London correspon- dent of the New York Times, cables to that paper as follows: Some extremely grave |rumors about Italian affairs are finding | their way to London this week, and wear a peculiarly alarmist color, Today they hint at nothing short of revolution. It is said |that the king, who until recently enjoyed an undoubted personal popularity, has now become, through unfit friendship, hatefully | mixed up in ghe public mind with the bank- ing scandals, and that the secret societies, which fell off in membership to almost in- significance after his visit to the Naples cholera hospitais nine ye: ago, have swollen again during the past few months to far greater proportions than ever before. The crash of the Credit Mobilier Bank, under best possible conditions, must break a number of little banks and close a lot of industrial entezprises all over Italy, and add to the number of angry, mutinous peo- ple who are willing to help smash every- thing. one seems to have information either of disaffection in the army or that | secret societies have material o> organiza- | tion for an uprising. This is important, but not necessarily vital, as Spain showed in 1868. What gives the outlook a particular- ly disturbing and puzzling aspect is the be- Nef that Cardinal Rampoila and his domi- nant group of clerico-political Italians are deepsin the scheme. At first blush it sounds strange to hear of the Vatican yoking itself with the Carbonari for the overthrow of monarchy, but within the past decade the papacy has drifted off so far from its old conservative moorings that any alliance is dt is taken for granted that the new Zanardelli ministry will only last long enough to arrange for a dissolu- tion and appeal to the country; it is under- stood that the new chamber will probably contain over 100 social democrats, who wiil be reinforced by the clericals on important a ns. Apparently there was a reflection of this same unnatural union in Berlin yesterday, where the entire socialistic group in the reichstag voted for the return of the Jesu- its to Gesmany. No time need be wasted in pointing out that these two forces are working for widely different ends. Rampolla’s plan is an Italian federal republic like ours, only the pope as a perpetual ex officio president and master also of Rome, which sa kind of District of Columbia, Of course the idea of lay revo- lutionists is something widely different. Current interest Ites in their temporary alliance to clear the ground for their rival projects by overthrowing the house of Sa- voy. << Destructive Fire in Baltimore, The six-story double buflding at South Paca street and Tyler avenue, West Baltl- more, Md., was destroyed by fire Saturday night, and also the laboratories of the Uni- versity of Maryland.

MANY FINE ADDRESSES MADE. A Considerable Amount of Money Contributed. IMPRESSIVE SERVICES. ‘The new Second Baptist Church was dedi- cated yesterday. ‘The services lasted throughout the day, and were of an impres- sive character. The baptistry was filled with palms, and flowers were around and upon the pulpit. Palms brightened the bal- cony and platform. Keguiar Sunday school services were held at 9:30 o'clock. They were conducted by Mr. R. Milton Hender- son, assistant superintendent. He spoke of the past, the present, and the future of the school, and talked tenderly to those who had labored by their side in the cause and who were not now able to rejoice with them. At 11 o’clock there were prayers by Deacon Dulin, Deacon Lacy, Mr. Charles Proctor, William Cohill, William A, Cooper and R, M. Henderson, Maggie Annandale, the first woman admitted by letter, was given the right hand of fellowship. Rev. Edgar Y. Mullins of the Lee Street Baptist Church of Baltimore preached the dedi- catory sermon. It was from two texts: Genesis, xxii, 28; and Second Corinthians, vii, 8. it was an able discourse. He com- pared the church to a eopious and clear spring, from which only what was pure and beneficial flowed. He reviewed the history of the church, substantially as printed in The Star of Saturday, and spoke in a congratulatory way of its progress. The greatest service of the series was held in the afternoon. It was a union service. The church was crowded, All the Baptist churches in the District, and many out- side of the District, and many that were not Baptist, were represented. The follow- ing-naraed reverend gentlemen had seats on the platfort Revs. Meador, Smith, Bowman, Outwater, Stevenson, Muirr, Stakely and Naylor, and Rawlinson. The pastor, Kev. E. Hez Swem, opened the pro- ceedings by anouncing the hymn, “Praise God From Whom All blessings Flow.” Rev, Dr. Bowman, late pastor of the First Bap- ust Church ef Anacostia, delivered the in- vocation, He asked that God's grace ac- company them in their service, and called for the direction of God in all their actions. They not only dedicated the church, but themselves. He prayed that the Holy Spirit should dwell with them and give them pros- perity in all the years to come. He asked that their prayers be heard, and hoped that some sinner might be led to consecrate him- self to Christ. This was followed by the singing of hymn No. 204. Rev. Dr. Out- water of Kendall Chapel read the Scrip- ture lesson from the 122d Psalm, “I was giad when they said unto me, ‘Let us go into the house of the Lord.’ Pastor Nay- lor then offered prayer. He asked that they hft up their hearts to God that He might bear their cry. They must purify them- selves, for if there was iniquity in their those prayers would not be heard. ited to be washed and cleansed. He prayed for Divine blessing on the ckurch, pastor and the people. “May many who sit in sin in this part of the city be led to Christ through this church, and may glad news go up to the Father of His re- deemed children,” is how Mr. Naylor put it. Dedication Prayer. Rey. J. D. Smith anounced the 99th hymn, “I Love Thy Kingdom, Lord.” Rev. Dr. Meador of the Fifth Baptist Church fol- lowed with a prayer of dedication. He gave thanks for permission to invoke the Divine blessing on the labor of the church which they were dedicating. He made sev- eral affectionate allusions to the old church that had stood on the site of the present structure for three-quarters of a century. He gave thanks for the increased useful- ness of the church, of its more complete manifestation of the power and the love of God. He hoped that they might be quick- ened into greater activity. Generation af- ter generation, the Word had gone forth, and would go forth from this sacred spot. He hoped for greater conversion of im- mortal souls. He asked the Almighty to abide with them and make this church His dwelling place. He urged greater spiritual Blity Of the butiding for the pasvonse tar e which Intended. ta a Dr. Stakely’s Addre: Rev. Dr. Stakely, pastor of the First Baptist Church, made a brief address. He was sure that It was one of the happiest days of his life and one of the happiest of days with all Baptists of the District. He brought the congratulations of the First Church, and they rejoiced with the pastor and the people of the Second in the outcome of their labor and the completion of this monument of their sacrifice and devotion. He spoke of “the long and glorious history of the Church organization.” They should remember that when they reared an edifice of this kind it was not only a structure of brick, lumber and mortar, but there was a spiritual body in the church, which, let them hope, would dwell there forever. It was truly the house of God. He used to dwell in the tabernacle, but now He dwelt in the hearts of the people. God was in contact with the world through the Church: as God had influenced the world from the tabernacle, so He did from the Church. God taught them that in church organiza- tion they were to do their best work. The best’ work of God was through the local Church. Its character was not all. It had a mission of charity, of salvation and of grace, They were not to isolate themselves from the world. They were not to go into caves or cloisters. They place was in the world, and they should WM cliizens of heaven, Their mission was to the worl: it was a mission of salvatior The Church rested on the truth and it their duty to exhibit and publish and extol the truth. It was the business of the local Church to take up the truth and give it to the people, that the blessings which they enjoyed might be en- joyed by others. They should carry out His word. Mr. Stakely closed by saying, “may the seal of the Divine sanction be upon this work and may God lead us out into fields of greater usefulness.” Churches Cost Money. Pastor Swem then stated that it was a very strange thing that churches cost mon- ey to build. It would be a pleasant thought if they could think that it was only neces- sary to plant a seed and grow a church, but this could not be so. They wanted to raise | $13,000, This was the balance due on the new structure. He had turned the duty of collecting this amount over to Rev. Dr. Muirr. The latter gentleman also had a word of congratulation for the congregation because of their thrift and progress. He said that he wanted $14,000 and he hoped that some did not feel that they would like | Dr. Muirr | then began to work the audience up into a to have the old church back. contributive humor, by saying several face- tious things. At first he wanted somebody to subscribe $500, He hung onto this figure for some time, but without success. Then he dropped to $400, without avail, then to $800 without response and it began to look as though there was | a lack of financial enthusiasm. Then he dropped to $250, to $200 and finally got down to $100, ‘The check of Buckingham, Swope & Company of Baltimore was presented for 3100, Mr. Whitney gave a like sum. Mr. Muirr Inserted a good deal of speech be- tween donations. He said that David had said he would not offer to the Lord that which had cost him nothing. From $100 he fell to $75, without effect. Then to $50. Here Mrs. John Russell made a contribu tion. Mr. Henderson then arose in the adier.ce, interrupted Mr. Muirr and walked pwn the aisle. He said he thought this was a Baptist crowd, but they did not seem to respond as Baptists should. He stated that he had written nine letters to people outside of Washington and had re- ceived seven checks. No one of these con- tributors was a_ Baptist. Out of six He- brews to whom he had appealed for funds, five had answered with cash. The letters which accompanied these ¢ ions would enthuse a Baptist. He closed by making a strong appeal for mon Some Contributions, Cards were circulated and soon began to come with names and amounts pledged. Rev. Mr. Meador gave $25, Rev. Mr. Stev- enson of the First Baptist Church of Ana- costia pledged that organization for the same sum. Mr. Stakely said that the First INDEX TO ADVERTISEMENTS. Pare 9 ATTORNEYS.

The New York Herald yesterday printed a communication from Admiral Mello dated Harbor of Rio, October 20, in which he states that the purpose of the revolutionist movement “is to establish a republican constitutional government, which was de- stroyed by Peixoto; to promote national peace in all the states of Brazil, and to substitute civil government for militarism and the awful political system developed by an actual dictator who prepares for our country in this way the tremendous mis- fortunes common to Spanish common- weaiths. . “All reports about monarchial plans as to the navy revolution are absolutely faise. The Herald's correspondent in Rio Grande do Sul telegraphs that the leader of the federal forces in that state, Gen. Gume- sindo Saraiva, with 2,000 well-armed men, is preparing to transfer the revolutionary | fighting on land to Rio Janeiro. Arrange- ments have been made by which the troops will be hurriedly moved to the capital. It is believed by some that the Aquidaban and other ships of Mello’s fleet will convey the transports. The Joss of the transport Madeira, fol- lowing the sinking of the ironclad Javary, is another blow to Mello’s cause, while the escape of the Aquidaban and Esperanca may prove an advantage to him. Admiral Stanton Talk; Admiral Stanton was interviewed Satur- @ay evening at his home in New London, Conn. He expressed surprise at Mello’s abili- ty to make his way out of Rio in the face of the raking fire from the forts at the mouth of the harbor. He thought the move was made by Mello to intercept the Nic- theroy or to afford Mello an opportunity to clean the bottom of his own ship,the Aqudi- ban. She is very éoul. Admiral Stanton said he could not see, however, what Mello hoped to gain by leav- ing the harbor and his base of supplies en it was the avowed intention of the Nictheroy to meet him as soon as Possible and try her dynamite guns on him. Mello’s advantage, he said, lay in his having guns Aquidaban was away, the latter would have to encounter the dreaded fire from the har- bor forts again in order to get a shot at her. The removal of the Aquidaban takes away, he said, Mello’s most powerful vessel, In the opinion of the admiral, a cri: is near at hand in the Brazilian warfare which will soon result in a conclusion of the trouble. Admiral Stanton said he was still awaiting orders to appear in Washing- ton. An official dispatch from President Peix- oto’s goverment printed in the Herald states while it is true that some rioting took place in Para, order has been com- pletely re-established. eee The Five F: From Harper's Magazine. The origin of the best strain of Arabian blood as been related by some romancer. While Mohammed was fighting his way to greatness he was once compelled to lead his corps of 20,000 cavalry for three days with- out a drop of water. At last from a hill top they descried the silver streak of a distant river. Mohammed ordered his trum- peter to blow the call to dismount and icose the horses. The poor brutes, starving for -water, at once sprang into a’ mad gal- lop toward the longed for goal. No sooner loosened than came the alarm—false, as it happened—of a sudden ambush. “To | horse” was blown and repeated by a hun- jdred bugles. But the demand was too great. The parched throats were not to be re. |fused. The stampede grew wilder and wilder as 20,000 steeds pushed desperately for the river banks, Of all the frantic crowd but five mares responded to the call. To these duty was higher than suffering. They turned in their tracks, came bravely back, pleading in their eyes and anguish in their sunken flanks, and stood before the prophet. Love for their master and a sense of obedience had conquered their distress, but their bloodshot eyes told of a fearful torment =the more pathetic for their dumbness. The danger was over. The faithful mares were at once released, but Mohammed se- lected these five for his own use, and they were the dams of one of the great races of the desert. From them have sprung Mares. best of Arabian steds. It can, however, | ; claimed that the average hor= of the orient comes up to this ideal.

He says Mr. Cleveland has befriended the populists by offending his own people. Speaking of the tariff, Mr. Simpson said that while there had been no conference between the populists, he believed that all or nearly all of those in both House and Senate would vote for the tariff bill. The meas- ure, he said, would be especially acceptable to them if ft contained a provision for either an individual income tax or cor- poration income tax. Personally he pre- ferred the latter.
