PERSONAL REQUESTS MADE FOR PRA The Responsibility of a Man's Acts Enforced. DR. McKIM’S ADDRESS Rain and storm made no appreciable dif- ference in the size of the audience at the Moody and Sankey meeting last night. The hall was just as crowded as ever and the congregation more interested, apparently, than upon some former occasions. The meeting was opened by singing several hymns, after which Mr. Sankey sang two solos. When Mr. Moody took his place upon the little platform which serves as e pulpit he} faced a sea of eager upturned faces, and | every ear was bent to catch his words. He continued his remarks of the night previous upon the subject of “Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” “Tonight I want to show that a man reaps more than he sows. We would not sow ff we did ot hope to get more. So it is in the kingdom of Ged, A man is bound to reap more than he sows. You tell a lie and you must tell ten to cover it up. David reaped more than he sowed. From the time he fell into his first sin he reaped until his death. Billow after billow of sin rolied over him. The sword did not leave his house. Jacob told one lie to his father and his ten boys came back with a He upon their lips, that Joseph had been torn by wild beasts. Jacob sowed the Me and reaped its fruits for years. There are fathers and mothers here who reap through their children what they sowed. 1t took Jacob twenty years to finish his reap- ing. It did not take him long to plan that act, but it took him between thirty and || forty years to reap the harvest. There are people right here who will commit that! || which will take them all their natural life | to reap. When you hear a young mau say | he is sowing his wild oats don’t cheer him | on; look ahead twenty-five years and see! his harvest. A man in the counting room | may make one false entry in a ledger. It | don’t take him long to do it, but it takes him years to atone. The Cage of Torture. “There isn't a man here but knows It, if | he will stop to think, that it takes years | to build up a character, but in one short year | it can be thrown down and blasted. A king of France once asked his court favorite to invent an instrument of torture for the | king’s enemies. The man invented the iron cage, in which a prisoner cannot stand nor Me down. The court favorite himself was | the first offender, and for fourteem years he | occupied the cage. It did not take him long || to plant that tare, but it took him fourteen years to reap it. “I was preaching in Chicago and after the sermon @ man came to me in great grief. He wanted to see me alone, and when he did he confessed that he was a fugitive from justice. He had been in hiding in Chi- cago and said he had led a life of constant terror: it was hell on earth. “I said, ‘Why don’t you give yourself up to the law and ask God to forgive you” He said he would but for his wife. He could not bear to have her suffer for his wrong- doing. If a man could do his own reaping it wouldn't be so bad. We don’t do our reaping alone. You might stand it, how about it when it comes to making the wife of your bosom reap with you, to mak- ing that gray-haired old father and mother reap with you, those innocent children? That man went home and spent a week hidden in his house. When the wife had Fut the children to bed he would come out | from his hiding place and look at his ae nocent children. He could not speak to them. “Oh, tell me that sin is not bitter! There is nothing more. bitter than sin, no pesti- lence, no death that is equal to its terrors. Oh, I wish every man in this audience could turn from sin. The man gave himself up and was sentenced to nineteen years in prison. Poor man, he was reaping. He is out now, but he ts still reaping. He has found miercy, but all the future years he must reap. “Ignorance of the kind of seed that you sow does not excuse you. You must be careful of the kind of seed you sow. The man who goes on sowing for time and eter- nity without knowing what he sows, or stops to ask himself what kind of seed he is sowing, is an idiot. Pull yourself to- gether now, ask yourself what you are sowing, whether to the flesh or the spirit. You have got to reap yourself; you can’t reap by substitute. Lives Young Men Lead. “Young man!” he said, impressively, “tell me what you ere sowing. How do you rein to your passions, do you scoff at your mother’s Bible, sneer at Christianity, call the church people old fogies? Tell me that and I will tell you that you are going to reap a bitter harvest! Young man, are you in the habit of spending a night or two in a saloon, or playing billiards for the drinks? Tell me that and I will tell you what you will reap. It takes no prophet to tell you that. How do you speak of your parents? Do you scoff at them? Heaven help you if you do! Your reaping will be hard. “We don’t hang our meanest murderers. They run unhung. The man who goes down step by step and kills his parents inch by inch is the meanest kind of murderer. I don’t know of a d sin than for a man to crush the life out of his mother or father or wife in this way, and yet it goes on all over America. “Say, friends, what kind of seed are you sowing, anyhow? Just stop a moment and think about it,” he said earnestly. He look- ed around the hall, amid a silence that was painful, and then begged the audience to think about it. “I was at Eyemouth,in England, one time. It is a fishing town, and there were forty- one fishing vessels in harbor waiting for the weather to clear. The approach of another big storm was announced, and the harbor master hoisted the storm signal, and beg- ged the fishermen not to leave port. But they would not heed the warning and sailed board Not one of them ever came back alive. “My friends, I Mft the storm signal to- night and beg you to take warning. If you don’t forsake sin you are lost. “One stormy night 2 man discovered a great landslide on a railroad track. The night express was nearly due. He seized his lantern and rushed down the track to give warning. He slipped and in falling broke his lantern and put out his light. He heard the rush and rumble of the express. He gathered up the broken lantern and as the train rushed past he. threw it into the cab of the engine, st: engineer, | Who took warning and slowed up in time. | My friends, I throw the broken lantern at | your heads toni ht; warning. ‘ight; may God help you take Appeals to Sinners. . While the congregation sang the hymn, “Take Me as I am,” Mr. Moody besought the sinners to repent, to come to God at the present time. “You will mever have less sins to answer for.” “When I was awakened I went from church to church, hearing different min- isters. I got all mixed up. But when TI went to a Christian man he helped me out in bp e omegy A man will never be- come @ Christian unt! a one.”* Sine ahem Gates oa . McKim of Eptphany Church was then called upon. “I have been thinking that there are men here tonight who are like that man in the Bible, the prodigal son,” he said, “who thought that every hired servant in his father’s house had more than he. Are you hesitating tonight whether you should go back to your Heavenly Father? He is ready for you. He has done all He can. It just remains for you to say the word. He has prepared the way for you. There is not a sinner here tonight whose sin is so deep that Christ cannot wash it away. Christ is here tonight, and He is ready to help you. You can’t save yourself.

I don’t know of any. thing which shows the way clearer than that. The frst step is to trust Him. Swear that from this night you will trust Him. He won't betray your Ps “Will you trust Him?” asked Mr. Moody in_an earnest e. “Just say you will.” There was mce for a moment. Then away off in a remote corner of the hall! came a feeble response, “I will.” It was the signal for more of the same kind, and for ten or fifteen minutes, while Mr. Moody exhorted and encouraged them to speak, came the responses—some low and hesitat- ing, others loud and clear. ‘They Arose for Prayer. ‘Then Mr. Moody asked if there were not people in the audience who wanted to be prayed for, some one who needed prayer. “You may probably never have such an opportunity in your life again to have the prayers of so many thousand persons con- centrated upon you personally. Just rise and sit down again and we will take that as an indication that you want to de pray- ed fo! Instantly a dozen pedple arose to their feet and then within the next ten minutes probably fifty people made the sign of their desire to have the prayers of the congre- gation, The chorus sang the hymn. “My Faith Looks Up to Thee,” and then while the 68th and 66th hymns were sing, one aftcs another, Mr. Moody esought the people to open their hearts to the word. At his suggestion Christian people all over the hall from person to person whom they might think were open to ¢unviction, and pleaded with them to give their hearts to God. Earnestly they labored, with the converts of the evening especially. Mr. Moody asked the converts to hand in their names that all might receive books. After further singing the meeting closed with a benediction. Moody and the Children. A correspondent writes to The Star as follows: “I wish this to reach the eye of the committee having the glorious and suc- cessful meetings of Messrs. Moody and Sankey in charge, to suggest the feasibility of holding one Sabbath afternoon meeting in Convention Hall for the Sunday school children end teachers exclusively, meeting at their respective churches and marching in bodies, with banners flying.” —_ THE CYCLERS’ FAIR. Am Attractive Scene of Fair Women and Tasteful Displays. The first grand fair of the Georgetown Cycle Club opened last night at the Wash- ington Light Infantry Armory under favorable auspices. It 1s with the object of establishing a bicycle track that the fair is being held, and the proceeds will be devoted to that fund. The club besides providing a fair turns the floor over to the dancers at ten o'clock each night, and this will prove popu- lar if last night was any criterion. There is an excellent display of bicycles of differ- ent styles and makes, and fancy articles | ' and pretty girls galore. A fair without voting would be no fair at all, and the club has provided a large assortment of prizes, from a French doll to a Columbia safety bicycle. The ladies of the fair are: Chaperones—Mrs. 8S.

Trafic of All Kinds impeded — High Winds Blew. New York city was last night covered with a mantle of snow several inches thick. Traffic of all kinds was greatly impeded and the inconvenience to pedestrians was so great that none but those who were compelled to do so ventured on the street. The snow began to fall in the afternoon and continued steadily for several hours. Railroad traffic was demoralized. All trains were behind time and mails were delayed from all sections. The street railroads were operated with aifficulty. The wind was nigh. The traffic on the river was impeded. The ferry boats were late and did not make their accustomed number of trips. The pilots had to guess their way to the slips, for the snow was so thick they could not see a boat's length ahead. The weather bureau predicts that the day's experience was the advance guard of one of the most severe storms of the winter and would be followed by a very cold wave. The absence of any reports from the southwest indicated that the wires had been blown down. No reports from the south- west of the Arkansas valley were received. ———_-se< —— PARLIAMENT IN SESSION. ‘The House of Commons Reassembled— Gladstone Cheered. ‘The house of commons reassembled yes- terday.

A Boston evening newspaper has an in- teresting special from its Honolulu corre spondent, dated February 3, consisting of an interview with President Dole, in which that gentleman makes several points not hitherto brought out. He dwells with em- phasis on the claim that it was the queen herself who was the insurgent. “She has rebelled against her own govern- ment. A revolt on her part was equal to an abdication. There was then no govern- ment at all,” said President Dole. He said that, annexation or not, the pro- visional government was built to last, and was so looked upon from the first.

Let Gill felz Work of Improvement That Was Accom- plished Last Month. Interesting Facts From the Report of Maj. Davis, the Officer in Charge. Maj. Davis, corps of engineers, hat madé ® report to the chief of engineers of the operations for the improvement of the Po- tomac river during the past month. He says the weather during January was un- usually favorable for the season. Dredging in the Washington channel, under the con- tract of the San Francisco Bridge Compan: was continued during the month, and good Progress was made. The total amount of dredging was 104,026 cubic yards, which is in excess of the work of any previous month under this contract. The material is dredged by a hydraulic dredge and is de- posited on section 111 by meaus of pipes in the usual manner. The navigation channel has now been widened to 400 feet and deep- ened to twenty feet at low tide from the turn in the channel off the upper end-of the arsenal grounds to a point off the foot of I street south, a distance of 4,400 feet. The amount of dredging under the contract to January 31 last was 354,612 cubic yards, leaving a balance of 445,388 cubic yards to be to make the total of $00,000 cubic yards. The Sea Wall. The construction of the sea wall on the Washington channel front of section 111 was continued during the month, and #00 linear feet completed. For this work 845 cubic yards of building stone were pur- chased. Maj. Davis says that in his last annual report reference was made to the rapid growth of trees, brush, etc., on the reclaimed area, and to the necessity for po- lice supervision. It was recommended that | provision be made for two mounted watch- men to patrol the reservation, in order to prevent infractions of the law, trespassing, ete. This is necessary, says Maj. Davis, not only because of the wide extent of the area, but because the dense growth of trees and underbrush afford a shelter and hiding place for tramps and suspicious per- sons. During the last month a part of sec- tion 11, just south of the bathing beach, was made a resort by tre rs of this kind, | and the city police have found it necessary ; to make several arrests. Maj. Davis says that this part of the reservation is now be- ing cleared of trees and undergrowth. On | section 111 about 125 acres have already |tween the tidal reservoir and the Long | bridge will next be cleared. The probable | operations during February include dredg- | Ing in the Weshington channel, continuing | the work on the sea wall and clearing up | the trees and underbrush on the reclaimed area. The Area Above the Overflow. All the material dredged from the channel | has been deposited on the flats, and prae- | tically the entire area to be reclaimed has been raised above the overflow at ordinary high tide. Of the 12,000,000 cubie yards esti- mated to fill the flats to the required heizhr, there has been deposited on them about 9,900,000, Tae redredging of the navigation channel between the Long bridge and the progress. The remainder of this channel, from the upper end of the arsenal grounds to its junction with the Virginia chaunel, is still to be widened to 400 feet and made twenty feet deep. The widening and deep- ening of the Virginia channel below the Long bridge, so as to facilitate the discharge of freshets and prevent overflow in the city, is still incomplete. A contract has been made with John Austin of Philadelphia for the removal of the wreck of the steamer W. W. Coit in the Washington channel of the Potomac river, opposite Washington, with February 10, 1894, as the date for com- ees the work. His bid for the work was +0 + THE TERMS OF PATENTS. A Bill to Shorten Them Introduced by Senator Palmer. Senator Palmer introduced in the Senate yesterday a bill for the shortening of the terms of patents in certain cases. Any inventor desiring to obtain two or more patents for an invention under the bill is entitled to do so upon usual proceedings, whether the inventions be capable of di- vision mechanically or on physical lines, or the applications differ merely in the form or scope of claims presented. It is provided that all such patents shall be issued on the same day, or if not so issued, each of the later ones shall be issued only for the unexpired portion of the one first granted, so as to cause them all to expire together. Purchasers under any such patents shail not be required to pay royalty under the others or any of them. Two or more pat- ents shall not be issued to the same inven- tor containing the same claims. Where two or more patents have been heretofore issued to the same inventor, dif- fering in form or scope of claims or other- wise, the patentee or his representative shall be entitled, on paying the govern- ment $100, to file a waiver or disclaimer of so much of the term of each of the late patents as extends beyond the date of ex- Piration of that first granted so as to cause all to expire together, in which case of waiver or disclaimer the validity of the latter patent is not to be affected by the prior issuance or existence of the patent first granted. Purchasers of any such patents shall not be required to pay royalty under patent having part of its term disclaimed. o-____— In the Divorce Court. Susan F. McGrew was yesterday granted a decree of divorce by Justice Hagner from the matrimonial ties with Charies H. Mc- Grew. They were married in Texas in 1877, and she charged desertion on April 15, 1889.

Whenever the Washington Lodge of the B. P. O. of Eiks undertake to entertain their friends they usually do it to the “queen's taste,” They tried it last night at Builders’ Exchange Hall and fairly outdid themselves. It was the twelfth anniversary of the organization of the lodge and was celebrated in most approved style by an entertainment for the special edification of the lady friends of the members of the or- der. It was merely intended, however, as preliminary to the annual benefit of the or- der, which will take place at Albaugh’s Opera House on Monday evening, March 12, when Rhea and her entire company will appear in the play of “La Giaconda, the Actress of Padua,” generally reputed to be one of the best impersonations of that gifted actress. During the evening brief address- es were made by Mr. Thos. J. King, Mr. George D. Scott and Mr. 5. B. Hay, and the last named said he took especial pleasure in showing the commendable charitable and beneficiai work accomplished by the order in a quiet, unostentatious, but practical and substantial manner. An Interesting Prog ‘The regular program was as follows: Overture, orchestra; vocal trio, Taylo brothers; musical selection, “Alpine Tri recitation, Mr. R. F. Lowe; soprano solo, Miss Carter; cornet solo, Prof. Winters; recitation, Mr. Collins; vocal selections, Mrs. Blanche Ford; banjo solo, Mr. Joe Cullen; comic songs, Mr. George O'Connor; “Pair | of Lunatics” (a farce), by Miss Daisy Ham- mock and Mrs. Talbot Palizzi. 5 Nearly every piece was encored. At the close of the set entertainment ,the entire audience repaired to an adjoining room and partook of refreshments. The entertainment committee was most hospitable and con- siderate, and if any one failed te have a good time it was his or her own fault. Re- freshnents were followed by dancing, which was kept up until it was time to go home. Some of the Guests. Among those present were Representative A. R. Kiefer, Gen. John F. Brady, Gen.

The piscatorial reporter will now intro- duce Capt. Jim Willis, who will favor the readers of The Star with a fish story. Capt. Jim hails from Morehead City, North Caro- lina, where he runs pleasure craft for the accommodation of northern consumptives. ‘At this moment he is leaning against the buffet at the Normandie, and this is what he is saying: Down yonder where I live we have all sorts of finny denizens of the deep from minnows up to whales, including yachts- | men. I don't propose to stuff you with a | trout story, or to say anything to you about the size of a black bass, because I am aware that there are a lot of land-lubbers right here in this city who can Ne just about as hard as anybody else in this particular line. I can’t tell a yarn with any bigger bass in it than the next fellow. My spe- ciatty is the whale. I'd like to bet a hun- dred dollars to a cent that when a re- quest for a story comes round I can catch a bigger whale than anybody else. But, throwing all jokes to the four, or even a greater number of the winds of heaven, I did have an experience with a whale that came near to making a Jonah cut of me with the casting up process omit- ted. One sunny afternoon, not very long ago, I was sitting in the shade of my own fig tree and swinging in my own grape vine swing. It was one of those days when na- ture takes an outing. This is Fish Poetry. The heavens and the earth were a poem of sunshine, green and blue. A gentle wind that would not have kissed a blush of tan on the face of the fairest girl, played an fdyll on the leaves and bianches of the trees; patches of listless cloud frescoed thc dome of space, and the glittering stretch o water answered in sunlight to the sun. Th sea was quiet, even unto the ever undulat ing, restless ground swell, and in thi mighty mirror the heavens saw themselve as they are seen. Each tiny wavelet rip pled on the beach directly at my feet, in < lazy, impid way, and seemed to say that i was almost too faint to move, and thai really, had it not been for the eager waters in its rear, it would not have come to land. It was one of those days when a man can go to Elysium without the sacrifice 0: health. A column of fragrant smoke asceaded from my sweet cob pipe, and I felt as though I was the chosen of the Lord. The ideal rather than the real held sway. A splash of water was seen to seaward. A jet of the ocean went up and fell back as spray. I saw this, but I was in too much of a reverie to trace causes. A party of my fisher friends, who lived farther up the beach, came running by, and as they passed me they sang out “There she blows.” This cry woke me up. Once more the jet of wa- ter spurted upward from the sea, and down to the pier I rushed. A whale is apt to create a sensation In any seaside commun- ity, even though there be no summer guests, because there is always many hundreds of dollars concealed on its person. It is a red letter event in local annals when a whale comes down town. The saloon keepers es- pecially make merry ove> the arrival. This kind of guests, however, were so few | and far between at Morehead that accom- modations for them were rather below the standard. Somewhat Crowded. Our reception facilities in this particular instance were so inadequate that it was long an open question whether that whale would or would not conclude to seitle in| our town. It was only by luck and through no particular preference of his own that he did so. The town only boasted of two har- Poon outfits. One was an ancient harpoon gun that years before had been found by Wreckers on board the hulk of a South Sea whaler, which had gone on our coast while |bound to New Bedford, and the other was j&,very primitive hand-power harpoon rig. ‘There wasn’t a real whale beat in the town, but four ordinary fishing boats we: ned by as many crews. One carried the har- |poon gun and one the hand-huriing appa fee The other two were without any armament excepting several shotguns and one or two rifies. It was almost a ho; for if a whale is not will go down to come to the surface in a distant part of the sea. When one is struck in the vitals, he spouts or biows blood, and then floats into eternity. We rowed off so as to come at the game fi different points of the ‘compass. I was in the gun boat. AS we approached the w peless case with us, hit in the vitals he hale it was seen that he was a large and fat one. He took no notice of our . When we got within about one huna-ed feet of the monster the gun was fired and the barbed weapon took effect just behind the head and pretty well upen the back. ‘This was painful, but not neces- sarily a fatai shot. The other boats turnea | themselves loose and made some insertions jin the fish. Decided to Fight. Instead of going under, whales do, he remained on top to fight out. He swished his tail and turned the sea into suds, and made such a swell thet» have permitted him to pass their port without slowing down. He plunged head long against one of the boats and stove it/ so that it would hardly float. Its occu- pants were knocked overboard. There was & good deal of excitement. The sea round about us was boiling, the whale was red hot with rage, the men were shouting and the guns were popping. We could see that the beach away off was fringed with the population of the town, and we knew that all our movements were being patched anxiously through glasses. We had to fight. There was no time to crawfish or to back water. The fish next hurled himself against the boat in which I was, and it yielded to his wishes and got smashed. It was raised a considerable dis- tance in the air, and when it came down I was not in it. Where do you think I was, young man? In the water? Not much I wasn't. I was on that whale’s back just abaft his head, and holding on to that harpoon with both hands. Differently Occupied. Some of my friends were floundering in the aqueous brine and some were support- ing themselves by clutching the gunwales. Some had climbed into the other boats,thus overloading them and -crippling their effict- ency. He smashed boat No. 3, but he was_,_ bleeding as piously as though partic | pating in an athletic club glove contest. He was getting feeble, but he had a black roof in his mouth and an Abdallah stripe down ais back, and he refused to say “enough.” The boys in the remaining boat were hand- ling their guns with about the same care as a policeman and my sweet life was in dan. ser in more ways than a dozen. Above all the roar and riot it seemed to me as though we could hear the shouts of the people on shore, and I felt certain that I could hear “he dulcet tones of my beloved Hannah. The line which had connected the und the boat had parted and about 200 feet f manilla hawser squirmed and hed nake-like around in the seething sea. vhale didn’t seem to observe my attitude :nd continued his attention upon the two re- aaining boats. There wasn’t any The hang harpoon over me, dyeing me a gory hue. A few feeble swashes of the tail, and a keeling motion as though he was going to lie on his side arnounced that the fish was dead. The rope that floated from my harpoon was up and made fast to the boat, and the whaie and his rider were towed to shore. Our catch was lashed alongside the pier, snd the next day we went to work at the carcess. The fish was sixty-two feet and three-quarter inches long, and ceeds from the sales of his oil, other valuables were $3,500. I will forget my experience with that whale Morehead City, N.
