A Street Car Conductor Has a Test He is Willing to Bet On. | From the New York Herald. “That man is a real gentleman if he does look @ little seedy,” said a street car conductor to me, as he pointed cut a man in the car on an uptown trip one day last | week. “How do you decide that?” “Have you found some new test of char- | acter?” “Well, I don’t know as it’s anything new, but I've been raflroading a good many years and I hav passengers for nothing. I learned long ago that about every woman who gets a letter likes to let everybody know it by reading to find out one thing that marks a man a gentleman. ‘You see that woman sitting right ese | the man I pointed out? Well, she read a | letter that lasted ten blocks, and that man never even looked at it out of the corners of his eyes, let alone trying outright to; read it. That's how I know he's got good | breeding. ‘The next time you see a woman reading | a letter in a street car you watch any man who happens to be sitting near her and see if he doesn't try to get a look at the letter himself. Nine times out of ten he will, and sometimes he’ll make himself such a nuis- ance that I'd like to interfere if I dared. If he doesn’t you may be dead certain he’s a first-class gentleman. I'll bet on tnat tes: “But how about the women? Does your it apply to them, too?’ ‘eel, 0-0; 4 hardly think it does, for I've never seen the woman on my car yet that wouldn’t give a sly glance at a letter | another was reading if she could.” Sse pre Fired on an American Boat. ‘The rebel warship Marte, lying in the Rio Janeiro bay, fired three shots at one of the launches of the United States man-of-war Newark last Tuesday night as the launch was ceturning to the Newark from the shore. : Fortunately the Marte’s gunners were un> able to hit their target and no harm was done. The captain of the Marte says ne did not know the launch belonged to a man-of- war or to any Amezican ship. —————————— BILLIARD AND POOLTABLES | George “LC. “Sheriff I_asked. | § 't watched all sorts of, | it in a street car, and that's what led me; ON REGENERATION The Theme of Mr. Moody’s Discourse Last Night. AN IMMENSE AUDIENCE LISTENS 70 I? Many Responses to the Revivalist’s and Persuasive Appeal, THE OVERFLOW MEETING Rain, nor cold, nor biting winds can diminish the interest in the work of “van- gelists Moody and Sankey at Convention Hall, and last evening thousands gathered in the hall to hear them preach and sing, while hundreds were, as on the preceding evenings of the meetings, turned away, un- able to get within the building. So, when Mr. Moody opened the services last even- | ing by inviting the audience to join in sing- ing the 366th hymn, a throng as great as any of the preceding evening faced him and swelled the great volume of sound, as it grandly swept through the immense hall. Then Mr. Sankey sang with touching power “Throw Out the Life Line.” As the last note died away, Mr. Moody invited Kev. Dr. Corey to lead in prayer, and all bowed their heads as the minister eloquent- }ly besought God to bless the workers and | their Godlike purpose. Following the | Prayer, Mr. Sankey seated himself at the | organ and sang “Christ Returneth.” “It may be at morn, when the day is awaking, When sunlight thro’ darkness and shadow is breaking, That Jesus will come in the fullness of glory, To receive from the world His own.” To each of the four verses the choir sing- is: “Oh, Lord Jesus, how long, how long, Ere we shout the glad song, Christ returneth, Halleluja! Hallelujah, amen, Hallelujah, amen.” Another prayer, delivered by the Rev. Mi Baldwin of the Methodist University, fol- | lowed, and then, after one more hymn, Mr. | Moody arose and read the third chapter cf St. John, wherein the Lord told of the ne- cessity of man being born again. Another hymn was sung, and then Mr. Moody step- ped to the front of the little platform and spoke to the great throng about him. “One thing I want to say,” said Mr. Moody. “One minister said we would ha’ collections, but we are not after money, we are after you. I want to say, though, that we cannot get this beautiful, great hall, one of the finest I ever spoke in, so easy to make yourself heard, for nothing, ani any so by sending their contributions to Mr. George Truesdell, Washington Loan and Trust building.” Then Mr. Moody thanked the great audi- ence for the quiet hearing that had in- variably given him, telling the people that his audiences in Washington were among the most quiet and orderly ones he had ever spoken to. It was a double pleasure and gratification, he explained, to address such | audiences, and he wanted them to know | that he appreciated them. “You know,” |he said, “there are some audiences that | throw all you say right back at you. Speaking to such people is like throwing a ball against a wall, bounding back with. out any impression. But I am clad to sa: receiving ones. Necessity of Regeneration. Speaking in his peculiarly simple and effective way, Mr. Moody impressed upon the vast audience which faced him the necessity of regeneration, the importance of being born again. “I once asked a man if he was a Christian. He replied: ‘Well, if I ain't, then I don’t know who is. I en- tertain all the ministers, and my daughter plays the organ at the mission.’ Now, that man thought that was ail ae had to o to be a Christian. He was like a Canadian | lady who once said to me: Moody, why do you ask if I'm a Christian? Don’t | you know that my uncle in England is a bishop “Now, you laugh,” gravely remarked Mr. Moody to the audience but what makes you say you are Christian rou say be- cause you say your prayers, maybe; but | saying prayers don’t make you a Chris- | tlan any more than painting the pictute of a horse makes a horse. I pray. fore I was converted. Used to say night the little prayer my ,me—‘Now I lay me down to slesp. | forgot it I would jump out of bed, even with it 20 degrees be zero, and then, | when I jumped in ag: would swear at |my brother for kicking me. “Now, there you go, laughing sain,” ex- claimed Mr. Moody, as the people enjoyed his allusion to praying and swearing. “But do you ever stop to think that you ain't as good as you think? I tell you, we are all of us a mighty poor lot. speak of naturally good people. But those Kind of people are mighty scarce. Sup- pose a fellow should come to Washington and say he could photograph the human heart. How many people in the city do you | suppose would dare to have theirs taken? | Mighty few, I tell you. Why? Because we don’t like to see ourselves shown up in true colors. But when we primp up, look very fine, and get a gocd picture, why, then, we order about fourteen dozen. The truth of the matter is, we try to white- wash our bodies, but leave our hearts as black as ever. Make the Heart Pure. “What we want to do,” explained Mr. Moody, “is to make the heart pure. Don't do as the man did who imagined he could purify the water in the well by painting the pump white. Purify the heart, my | friends, that is all that needs to be done. I have had mothers say to me, ‘Mr. Moody, I can’t understand it. My son ‘loesn’t like spiritual things.’ I would say, f course he doesn’t. He has a carnal heart, the carnal heart likes carnal things.’ In | India they teil this fable: Once a crane standing by the side of a river saw a beau- tiful white swan flying toward him. gy ay beside him, and he as! ad come from. From heaven, he was a id. What was heaven? and where was j it? the crane inquired. A beautiful iand far |above, he learned. Did they have | there? the crane then asked. No, he was hey had no such horrible things aid the crane, he didn’t want | | laughed heartily over the | fable, while Mr. Moody paused and solemn- ly said: “You laugh, but do you know that in that fable there is a mighty moral? Here it is: See that young man, once so full promise, a mother’s foy, a father’ See him as he reels along. What for the motuer's breakir Now hear people talking and talking about culture, but I teil you [ have heard so much {talk about it that I'm sick and tired of it. Suppose I should take an acre lot and plough it this way and that way, day in nd day out. pretty soon some one would | want to know what i was pianting, | When I would tell them that I wasn’t plant- | ing anything, just cultivating it, they'd be | Very apt to say that it was about time for me to begin ,planting some seeds. They'd be right, too.” Then Mr. Moody went on to impress upon his hearers that it was time they began planting. “Don't wait until it ts too late,” exclaimed. “Begin at once; stop culti- | thinwiag of what we are and what we | should be that saves us.” Then he told cf | | a young man in England, who was fast go- | ing to ruin, and whose aunt induced him to } attend one cf his meetings. He endeavor- ed after the service to speak to him, but | the young Englishman fled from him. Eight years later they met. The young man was | then a successful lawyer, happily married, was doing great good work in the saving of others, and told Mr. Moody that seven years before he began to think one night of what he then was and what he might be. Thinking led to praying, and from that hour he became a better man. “Oh, my friends,” cried Mr. Moody, “all things are possible with God. Don't be downcast. Don't imagine that God cannot or will not save you. He will, if you but give yourself into His keeping, ‘that who- soever believeth in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.’’ Will you not belleve in Him? Will you not trust Him? Now, let us all unite in prayer.” Making an Impression. The Rev. Mr. E. D. Bailey of the Central Union Mission delivered the prayer, and when the great throng raised their heads, Mr. Moody looked at his watch and said: “It is now 8:45. If you can stay a little while longer I will have a few words more to say, and to every one who would like it I will give a copy of a little book I found in of our friends who desire to help us can do | ballad that my Was! ington audiences have been | 1 hear folks | It | ed it where | snails | y, |the audience have some rights which ush- and | vating. The soil is ripe. Think, think—it is !*p; Europe, and which I have republished here. It is called ‘Regeneration,’ and is one of the best books outside of the Bible. Now, let the choir sing ‘Believe, And Keep On Believing,’ the audience joining in the cho- rus.” Verse after verse was sung, when at length Mr. Moody held up his hand, saying, “Listen!” Perfect silence reigned through- out the immense hall, while above and about it the wind shrieked and roared. Then, impressively and solemnly, the great evangelist quoted: “ “The wind it bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, = Bhrncrge 4 it goeth no one knoweth.' man ever saw the wind, and no one can te what it is, but we know it exists. So ith the spirit of God; we know that it is here, been forever and ever will be. igh do we know? Because we have faith, ™ Then Mr. Moody held up his closed hand and said: “Now, when I tell you that I have something in my hand, I feel that you believe what I say. Why? Because, although you perhaps never met me before, you have faith in what I say. So you have, or should have, faith in the word of God. Now, here is a little boy. Do you want this piece of money, my lad?’ And a little chap timidly stood up and nodded his head. ‘Well, you can have it. Take it, my boy, and carry it home. Now, my friends, this little fellow will go home with something he did not have when he came. Won't you, my friends, take something home with you tonight? Take Jesus Christ home with you tonight. He will go with you, and will never leave you. Now, who has the courage to say he ‘will take Him? Who will say ‘I will?” ‘At first there was a deep silence over the multitude, then timidly came the response away off, “I will.” “Thank God for that. exclaimed Mr. Moody, “there ts joy in heaven over that answer.” Again and again the speaker urged and persuaded his hearers to answer, and here and there all over the great place came the answers, “I will.” A childish voice exclaimed ‘I will. “Thank God!” shouted the evangelist. ‘Suffer the | little children to come unto me, and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of heaven.” Then Mr. Moody asked Mr. Pugh to offer prayer, and as the prayer closed he said: 11 THE MARINE CORPS Views of an Officer Upon the Pending Hale Bill. Injustice Done im Its Provisions to an Important Branch of the Naval Service. Most of the published criticisms of the Hale bill for improving the personnel of the navy have emanated from officers of the staff and the marine corps or their friends. They have boldly asserted that the bill was Prepared solely for the benefit of the line of the navy at the expense of the other two branches named. Many line officers have been asked by a Star reporter to give pub- lec expression of their views in regard to the bill, but have unanimously deciined to Say anything on the subject. One of them admitted that they had seriously considered the question of replying to the attacks made upon them in the press and that it had been decided to ignore them altogether. It is learned from another source that Sec- retary Herbert has formulated « plan for improving the personnel of the navy and that the officers of the line desire to avoid any public agitation of the question pending its consideration by the head of the depart- ment. The subject is one of great interest in the navy and it is not at all difficult to persuade some of the younger officers to talk about it in a confidential way. An officer of the marine corps consented to the publication of his views on the bill provided his name was not mentioned. A Marine Corps Officer’s Views. “Now, let all s@z that grand old hymn, ‘My Faith Looks T@ to Thee, Thou Lamb of Calvary.’ "Another grand volume of song fol- lowed, as verse after verse of “Christ Receiv- eth Sinful Men” was sung, while 4'r. Moody | through the immense throng, speaking words of consolation and hope and encour- agement to the yearning ones, and receiving words of determination to accept the salva- tion so freely offered. Much good work w: accomplished, and when the great audience was at length dismissed with the benedic- | tion, great satisfaction marked the face of | the earnest evangelist and his workers. The Afternoon Service. While the revival service at the hall in the afternoon was not so large as on Wed- | nesday, still about 2,000 people gathered to listen to Mr. Moody and his brother evan- gelist, Mr. Sankey. The choir, too, was smaller than on the preceding day, but it was a very successful meeting nevertheless. The singing of the*hymn, “Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing,” opened the ser- vices, Bishop Hurst following with an earn- est prayer. Then Mr. Sankey sang “Some Sweet Day, By and By.” Prayer was again offered, when Mr. Sankey sang ~he Scotch hymn, “My Ain Countree.” It had |a telling effect, and hymn, “Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah,” was sung by the con- gregation. Taking the platform, Mr. Moody talked upon the subject, “Grace,” taking for bis text the second chapter of Titus,third verse. “For the grace of God leading unto salva- tion hath appeared unto all men.” Grace, he said, was a much misunderstood word. The greatest trouble with humanity being that they could not understand that grace meant freedoin. A great deal of energy in trying to do for themselves what God al- ways stood ready and willing to Jo for | them was wasted, and people tried to save themselves when, if they would only let Him, God would save them freely, “without money and without cost.” Mr. Moody said that the second division of his subject was one he had not time to then discuss fully, it being In answe> to | people afraid thatethey would not be able | to keep their salvation after they had fonn4 | it. All he had to say to such at present was | that the Lord who gave them salvation | freely by His grace was going to give them | strength enough to keep it if they came) | anything like near doing their own part in| | the matte: of helping Him. The Overtiow Meeting. The overflow meeting last evening was held at the Assembly Presbyterian Churea, but a | not very large congregation attended. The Rev. J, D. Smith,formerly of Grace Church, | spoke on the text, “If then ye follow my commandments ye shall know this law, whethe> or not it be of God.” The pastor of the church, Dr. Little, stated that the church would be open ard jat the service of the committee for the | overflow meetings every evening that there was a meeting at Convention Hall, and if |the pressure fo> admittance at the latter | Place continued upon the return of guod weather Mr. Sankey would be on hand efter his appearance at the other hall to take charge of the service, but if it was fourd early in the evening that the attendants at the church meeting could be accommodated in the hall, the meeting would udjourn there. | at Conveution To the Editor of The Evening Star: In the name of the long-suffering and | cruelly crowded assembly of weil-behaved | and patient people who congregate each levening at the L street entrance of Con- | vention Hall, anxious to gain admission to Mr. Moody’s great meetings, I protest against the acts of the ushers in charge of the doors and the police officers who assist them, in opening on!y one door, when there are four doors at the L street entrance, | which ought to be opened promptly as soon | as the hour of opening arrives—6:20 p. m.— so as to let the people in quickly and re- Neve the jam. Yesterday evening a large assembly of quiet, well-behaved people was |in waiting, ané when the hour of 6:30 ar- | rived, only one of the four doors was open- |ed, and soon one-half of the opened door was closed, and a very narrow opening left, toward which the crowd was continually | pressing, to the discomfort and actual pain lef many in the crowd, end especially the ladies. Meanwhile, at the door the ushers | | and police were shouting wildly at the peo- | “The report accompanying the Hale bill,” raid he, “contains so many unique state- ments that they ought not to pass un- |Roticed. The first paragraph says that it is and his associates walked here and there | desired to promote the military efficiency, | to Increase the fighting efficiency, to pro- | mote economy and to avoid injustice to any corps, and then the bill proceeds to do away with the only real military body on board, and to substitute in their places a greater number of men at a much higher rate of pay, thereby increasing the ex- pense. The bill practically does away with several corps noted for their faithful per- formance of duty. Isn't that an injustice to those corps? “As is said in the third paragraph, this is truly a bill to reorganize the line of the navy, but it does it in a purely selfish way and at the expense of efficiency, economy, othion: fa eh ef v paragrapen he others. In the next few the slowness of promotiog is discussed, and all will admit that this subject demands the closest attention, but not alone for the line of the navy, for in several other corps the promotion is quite as slow and just as im- portant. “A great point is made in favor of having twenty rear admirals, besides the rank of rear admiral for chiefs of bureau, so that officers may have four years in their grade and so be able to complete a cruise in command of @ squadron. Why not pro- mote to that rank by selection as is done in the army and in the case of naval bureau chiefs. That plan seems to give satisfac- tion. It certainly gives an officer something to work for. Proposed Transfer of Marine Corps Officers. “In proposing to transfer to the line offi- cers in the marine corps, who graduated at the Naval Academy, the author of the bill seems to think that these officers will jump at the chance and thus play traitor to the corps where they have been so fairly dealt with, and where there is an esprit de corps far greater than in some other branches of the service. And then the older marine officers, many of whom served dur- | ing the war, are to be rewarded for their | faithful service by being made captains of | the watch at navy yards. Really this is a! worthy recommendation, probably from some young lieutenant who was a baby when they were doing duty in the field or on fighting ‘ips. “It is also stated that the pay corps is to die out and that line officers are to do their duty. I do not say that any officer of intel- ligence cannot do the duty, but I do say that when it is stated that ‘the duties of a paymaster on board ship require but little of his time’ a very great mistake is made. If a paymaster does his duty his time is as well occupied as that of any officer on ship board. “The marines were an important element m board ship in the days of press gangs d mutinies, and they are just as import-/ ant today, is shown by numerous ietters from officers in a position to know. The | jackey today is no more of an angel he was in days gone by and a little wa’ ing does him no harm. author of the bill probably never heard of the conduct of the angelic tars on the Baltimore, who re- fused to coal ship until compelled by the marines, or of those sailors on the Mohican who took possesion of Sitka and had to be | arrested by marines, or of the jackeys on the Boston who made so much trouble at Montevideo. The individual who thinks that restraint and guarding will injure the jackey is probably the same, who a few years ago asked all the masters-at-arms | on ship board to get up petitions among the sailors to have the marines removed, cause they felt that they were by their presence. A Plea for the Marines. “It is true the marines Go not assist in handling the ponderous, complicated and delicate machinery connected with the armament and the engines. Neither do the line divisions, for that matter, but why co not the line officers assist in working the guns? Simply because the jealousy of the line of the navy does not allow it. When- ever marines have been stationed at the guns they have done such excelient work be- at target practice that the guns have been | taken from them by order of the depart. | ment. The marine officers at sea are nearly all graduates of the Naval Academy and | ple not to crowd or press toward the door, which only intensified the .

Without the audience _ these | grand meetings would be a failure. Surely, | therefore, the patient people who make up ers and police officers should respect. OBS: ‘Transfers of Renl Estate.

The secondary battery is their proper place. ‘There their training in rifle firing on shore vill be of great service to them. “The statement that marines only do guard duty on shore is not a fact, for the marines, like the army, are available, and often are used as infantry to queli riots, ete., and for special service like that rendered by them in Panama in 1887. Con- sequently it is not fair to assume that the $800,000 appropriation for the marine corps is spent simply in guarding navy yards. ‘The fact that nearly half the corps is at sea disposes of that theory. Why not utilize the marines at the batteries of the now ships instead of getting additional men for that duty? All the marines ask is that | they be made use of and they will guarantee good service, and that at a great saving to the government.” “ tai eg Damages for Being Expelled.

Pilcher, students at the Ohio Wesleyan University, have been expelled for conduct unbecoming a student. This is the result of cutting elec- tric light wires at the oratorical contest. The parents of all the expelled students are | wealthy and it is said that several fathers are here to institute damage suits against the university. ——+o-_. To Sell the Fair Buildings. South Park commissioners at the meet- ing Wednesday at Chicago suddenly ended all hope of the preservation of the white buildirgs at Jackson Park. They decided to immediately advertise for bids for their sale, and such as remain unburned for thirty days will be disposed of to the nigh- est bidder. This action was unanimously taken owing to the alarming frequency with which fires of evident incendiary origin have broken out among the butidings since the close of the exposition and which are a constant menace to he entire south- eastern portion of the city. —-<e.

Painful anxiety prevailed among the sup- Porters of the government. Minister Wil * Bearing. Minister Willis gave no indication of hav- ing received such instructions. His recent | relations with the government have been very cordial. His latest communication to the government, apparently closing the cor- respondence on the attitude question, was friendly in the highest degree. An inquiry was made of President Dole, who expressed the opinion that after such a letter Minister Willis would not think of reopening the con- troversy. Leading public men expressed a decided opinion that the government and commu- nity seek to cultivate pleasant relations with the American minister, who why not hostile at heart, although he had been by his position to appear so. Minister Willis and his family have been severely ostracised by the American community since his inten- tion to restore the queen became apparent. Davies Suspected of Conspiracy. On account of the detailed reports impli- cating Theophilus H. Davies in the alleged enlistment of soldiers at Vancouver for the service of Liliuokalani, Davies was sum- moned by the attorney general for an inter- view on the 6th instant at the office of the latter. He was shown several communica- tions received on the Sth from different sources, both by the foreign office and by the marshals, which all testified to zation by one C. W. H.
