The date of the ceremony, therefore, has not been ap- proximately fixed, and in no event could it take place until the latter part of Decem- ber. — Important Change in Schedule Penn- sylvania Railroad.

Dr. Hamlin Adopted—Interest! Report on the Good Citizenship Movement, The meeting of the executive committee of the District of Columbia Christian En- deavor Union held last evening in the lec- ture room of the St. Paul's English Luth- eran Church brought together representa- tives from nearly all the societies in the District. ‘The business considered by the committee was most important in Its na- ture, consisting as it did in the appoint- ment of the committee of arrangements for the international convention of '06. It will be remembered that early in the suihmer shortly after the convention had been secured, the executive committee designated nine persons to act as a com- mittee on organization. The duties of this cominittee consisted in planning the gen- eral scope of the work and naming the committees which should carry on this work. It is confidently expected that fully 60,- 000 Christian Endeavorers will gather here in July, 1896. Rev. Dr. Hamlin'’s Report. The report was read by the chairman, Rey. Dr. Hamlin, and was adopted without change. The committee recommended that the committee to have charge of arrange- ments for the great contention to be held here in 1896 should consist of a chairman, a vice chairman, a secretary, a treasurer and the chairman of each of the eight com- mittees. ‘These committees were desig- nated as follows: Finance committee, to consist of seven persons, with an auxillary committee of one person from each Christian Endeavor soclety. : The committee on hall, to consist of sev- en persons, with an auxiliary hall com- mitee of one person from each Christian Mr. W. H. H. Smith. Endeavor society. The decoration com- mittee, to be a subcommittee of the hall committee, and to consist of seven per- sons. The committee on ushers is also a subcommittee of the hall committee, to consist of seven persons, with an auxiliary committee of one person from each Chris- tian Endeavor society. The hotel committee, to consist of seven persons, with an auxiliary hotel commit- tee of one person from each Christian En- deavor society. The excursion, to be a subcommittee of the hotel committee, and to consist of seven persons. The following committees, each to consist of seven per- sons: The reception, music, press, print- ing and registration. The report also named the following for the officers and chairmanships designated and they were elected: W. H. H. Smith, lor, vice chairman; John D. Morgan, secretary, and Percy 8. Foster, treasurer. Chairmen of the subcommittees: Finance, W. B. Robison; hall, W. A. H. Church: hotel, Miles M.' Shand; reception, Rev. E. B. Bagby; music, Charles 8. Clark; press, John B, Sleman, jr.; printing, Lendell A. Conner, jr., and registration, Willam F. Stowell. wi Good Citizenship Movement. The good citizenship committee of the union, A. S. Taylor, chairman, made a re- port recommendihg a platform of principles upon which the good citizenship work of the union should stand. It was unanimous- ly adopted, and has the following general features: In the first place the report reiterates ad- herence to the following priaciples of the Christian Endeavor movement, namely, that each society is a part of the church with which it is connected, and that it is amenable only to the officers of the church; that the union is a coalition of the so: eties for good fellowship, mutual beneiit, &c.; that it is strictly interdenominaiional; that its acts and those of its officers are advisory and suggestive, but in no wise dictatorial. The report declares that the saloon is the greatest enemy of the day against <hurch, home and state; that it 1s the greatest evil, and as such the organization shoull fight it. Its total extermination is to be the ob- ject—not merely high license or low license or local option. Legislation is to be ve- cured that will lead toward this end and the education of youth that they will lool upon alcohol as u poison to both soul and body. The co-operation of individuals and societies is urged in forming the union cf suspected viglations of the law and of di- rections in Which efforts should be made. The report declares that each member should give his best efforts toward the ad- vancement of his country, as it is to the interest of all that proper laws be enforced. In doing this, the report states, “we sha not act in favor of any party, as a party, nor of any man because of the party he represents.” ‘The report further favors co-operation with the officers of the law in enforcing the laws and in aiding to bring offenders to justice. The report declares in favor of the observance of the Christian Sabbath, and that it fs in direct violation of God’s com- mands that any man voluntarily labors on that day or that any man or body of men compel another to do so. The report fav- ors one standard of personal purity, both for men and women. The power of ex- ample which this city affords is referred to in the report as an illustration in part of the need of pure government at the n: tion’s capital. “It ts sufficient to know, states the report, “that there are condi- tions now existing here and_ elsewhere which should be changed, and that the op- portunity presents itself to the people of this community for applying a remedy.’ — TEMPLAR SOCIAL. A GooD An Enjoyable bers of Perseverance Lodge. Perseverance Lodge of Good Templars enjoyed the hospitalities of Mr. and Mrs. Jno. W. Lowell at a social session held at their residence, 630 E street northeast, last Tuesday evening. In the absence of Prof. Ogle, the chtef templar, Mr. A.-H. Frear acted acceptably in that position, while Miss Lowell aid Mr. McCollam had charge of the program of entertainment. Messrs. Lowell, Bryson and Frear pre- sided in the dining room, where refresh- ments were served. The meeting was one of great enjoyment and makes another of the distinctive social successes for which this lodge is noted. Those who pur- ticipated in the program were Miss Daisy Taylor, Mrs. L. Frank Palmer, Misses Hall and Dodson, Ella Mundell, Lulu Lynch, May Cavanaugh, Jennie Gritiin, Mr. Reuben Wright, W. §. McCollam. Among those present were Mr. and Mrs. L. Frank Pal- rer, Mr. and Mrs, L, Ulery, Mr. and Mrs. T.-H. Lynch, Mr. and Mrs. Fisher, Mr. and Mrs. Peters, Mr. and Mrs. Bright, Mes- dames Cawson, Irvine, Hollinshed,’ Bosh, Burke, Weaver, Misses Jennie Shaffer, ‘Anne Beall, Lulu Daly, May Cavanaugh, Florence Langvoight, Burger, Hall, Maud Dodson, Weaver, Daisy Taylor, Lulu Lynch, Fisher, Mattle Sterling, “Maggte Berry, Mundell, Messrs, Carey, Garrison, Williamson, Haney, Marsh and .

Maude Powell’s Concert.—The attendance at Metzerott Hall last night, while it em- braced a large proportion of the musical people of the District, was not near so large as the merits of the entertainment justified. The program embraced some of the best chamber music that has been heard in this city since the days of the Mendelssohn Quintet, and that it was ap- preciated by the audience was proved by the Iberal applause that greeted every member of the string quartet, consisting of Miss Maude Powell, Messrs. Josef Kovarik, Frank P. Kaltenborn and Paul Miersch. Miss Powell and Mr. Miersch being both claimed as Washingtonians, the audience was familiar with their ability, and yet, when they made their appearance in solos, it was seen that both had advanced in their art. Miss Powell is today at the very head of female violinists, and can, without asking any favor, stand abreast with many of those of the male persuasion who are considered artists on the king of imstru- ; ments. She has a vigor of intellect, as well as power of execution, and at the same time she preserves her feminte ideality so that her playing is marked by a virile mechanical treatment, while the true spirit of the author is manifested in the develop- ment of the composition she is playin, This was illustrated last night in her play- ing of a polonaise by Johannes Miersch, a work of much brilliancy, and in the dul- laby, which she gave as an encore. Mr. Miersch proved his mastery of the ‘cello in his rendition of the “Souvenir de Spa,” and in the cradle song, which he gave on his recall. The soprano, Mrs. Wadsworth, was handicapped by a cold, but there are better singers in Washington. Philharmonic Club.—Tonight the Philhar- monic Club, consisting of Mr. and Mr Ernest Lent and Mrs. Herman Rak mann, wiil give ils second concert this sea- son at Metzerott Hall. The program has been carefully arranged so as to give each member of the club a solo number, as well as to present all in concerted work. The assistants of the club will be Anton Schott, the celebrated Wagnerian tenor, and Miss Dora Valesca Becker, a violinist of high ability. “The Span of Lif Villiam Calder'’s company, in Sutton Vane’s realistic melo- drama, “The Span of Life,” will be given at the New Bijou Theater next week. The story is said to be intensely English, the characters altogether racy of the soil and sufficiently varied to give interest to the play. It is constructed on melodramatic lines. ‘The principal scene is said to be the predominating feature which made “The Span of Life” so potent a magnet for the theater going public, who admire- sensa- tional dramas. It comes under the direc- tion and proprietorship of Mr. William Cal- der, for many years a member of McVick- er’s stock company. A New England Dinner.—The New Eng- land Dinner given by the ladies of Hamline M. E. Church, under the banking house of Mayse & Co., 9th street, two doors north of the census office, is being largely patronized today. Crowded tables at lunch hour, from 12 to 2, evidence the desire of the patrons to make this effort a success. Ail the good things that go to make up an old-fashioned New England dinner will be dispensed from 4 to 7 today, and tomorrow, at the small price of 25 cents. St. Joseph's Donation Party.—The an- nual donation party in aid of St. Joseph's Male Orphan Asylum will take place this evening at the Light Infantry Armory. The sisters in charge of this establishment have over one hundred little boys under their charge, and as their dependence for means with’ which to properly care for these little fellows is entirely upon the generosity of the charitable it is hoped there will be a large attendance. National Lyceum Course.—The last day for subscriptions to the National Lyceum Course is Saturdey of this week. There will be no opportunity after Saturday to obtain tickets to the ten entertainments at $1.80-in fact, the same tickets bought singly will cost almost $11. The first en- tertainment in the course, the lecture by Walter Damrosch, on “Wagner and t Musical Motives of His Music Drama: will be given December 5 at Metzerott's Music Hall. ee THE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENT The Confere Completes Its Labors and Adjourns—Oflicers Elected. The Atlantic conference of Seventh-Day Adventists closed its annual meeting yes- terday. The former board of officers were re-elected, as follows: President, Elder H. E. Robinson; vice president, Elder C. P. Bollman; secretary, Elder S$. B. Horton, and treasurer, T. A. Kilgore. One of the most difficult’ questions that meets the leaders is to find ministerial help to supply the constantly increasing demand for work- ers. Elder Allen Moon was selected from the Washington church to membership on the conference committee. Elder E. E. Frank preached last evening, the subject being “The Cross of Christ Is the Chris- tian’s Glory.” Some of the visiting elders will remain over Sabbath. Elder J.D. Van Horn, one of the pioneers of the de- nomination, and a member of the general conference committee, has accepted an in- vitation to preach this evening at the church on Sth street between F and G streets. —— A Fraternal Gathering. Last evening Assistant National Inspec- tor T. J. Shea made an official inspection of Gen. Guy V. Henry Garrison, No. 43, Regular Army and Navy Union. Officers from Gen, J. M. Schofield Garrison were also present on a fraternal visit. After the inspection there were many patriotic and fraternal addresses, recitations and songs. The entertainment committee then seated all present to a collation that proved that they had spared neither pains nor expense to bring some of the good things before thelr comrades. Most attractive amongst the decorations of the table were the lovely flowers presented by the Ladies’ Auxiliary to this garrison. There were many toasts. Inspector Shea expressed himself very well pleased with the condition of the garrison. The visitors present from Gen. J. M. Scho- field Garrison were Vice Commander G. W. Giddens, Deputy Commander Samuel J. avans, Officer of the Guard E. J. Buckley, Officer of the Watch J. J. Burdette, Acting Paymaster D. O. Drennan and G. W. Mat- tingly. Gen. Guy V. Henry Garrison was organized November 28, 1501, at Fort Myer, Va., by troop K, ninth United States cav- alry, and was named after Brig. Gen. Guy V. Henry, who has always proved a friend to the colored soldier. This garrison is composed entirely of honorably discharged colored soldiers and sailors of the regular service. Since the departure of troop K its membership is composed of seventy-six residents of the District. Hood’s Cured Me DREADFUL HEADACHES AND FLUTTERING HEART. The most remarkable cures on record have been ‘This medt- cine is unequalled for all diseases of the blood, accomplished by Hood's Sarsaparilia. Take only Hood's, for Hood's Sarsaparilla cures. “I am glad to add my testimony to the worth of Hood's Sarsaparilla, though were I to write all day I could not say enough in praise of it. Last spring I bad to give up work, being unable to walk half a mile. I SUFFERED ALMOST INCESSANTLY from sick headache and had racking pains all over my body. The least exertion would tire me all out. Going up one fight of stairs would make my heart beat at a terrible rate. I was induced to take Hood's Sarsaparilla, and now, after taking less than two bottles, the pains and aches have Hood’s Sarsaparilla Cures all left me. I have only had a slight headache once since. Hood's Sarsaparilla gave me a good appetite, and I can now do a hard day's work. Last week I walked home from Glen's Falls, a distance of six miles.

The annual mecting of the American Church Missionary Society was held yes- terday afternoon and evening at St. Thom- as’ Church, It was presided over by Rev. Dr. McKim of the Church of the Epiphany. The soctety is an auxillary of the Ameri- can board of missions of the Episcopal Church, and is concerned chiefly with the spread of Episcopal Christianity among the Latin-American republics of South Amer- ica. At the business meeting yesterday after- noon the officers of the society were re- elected, the following honorary vice presi- dents having been added to the list: Bish- op Lawrence of Massachusetts, Bishop Newton of Virginia and Bishop Barker cf Olympia. Rev. Dr. J. H. Elliott of Wash- ington was elected as an additional active vice president. The statistical and financial report of the year’s proceedings was read by the Rev. William A, Newbold of New York, xeneval secretary. In the report are given sutis- factory accounts of foreign and domestic mission progress, special attention being given to the labors in Brazii and Cuba. The financial statement shows receipts for do- mestic missions, $11,079.85; for foreign mis- sions (Brazil and Cuba), $0,195.36; specials, $6 balance on August 31, 18, $6,- The general funds at the disposal of the society amount to $136,834. In the evening the principal feature of the meeting was an address by Rev. A. B. Kingsloving of Brooklyn on the general subject of the necessity of the reformation to the development of modern Christianity. The larger part of his talk was taken up with a consideration of the religious con- dition of Brazil, which he pictured as at a very low ebb. According to Mr. Kingslov- ing the work of the Episcopal Church in Brazil has been eminently successful. There are now four misstonaries in the field, and thee have been 174 converts made in four years. More are being made each month. There were 100 souls baptized last year. and $1,300 collected to aid the work from the native population alone. The outside contributions, however, fell last year $10,- 00 below what they were in previous years and it was hoped that this year there would be a rally, Rev. A. H. Mellen delivered an address on the work of the church in Cuba, Rev. Henry L. Jones spoke of the philosophy of missionary work, and the evening Was brought to a close with a benediction by Rev. Dr, Aspinwall, rector of St. Thomas’ Church. POWDE Absolutely Pure. A cream of tartar baking pow- er. Highest of all in Igavening atrength.—Latest U. S Govern. ment Report.

Beach and Ar- thur Seymour, charged with the larceny of several thousand postage stamps from the bureau of engraving and printing several weeks ago. have been examined by the grand jury, and an indictment in the case is expected in a few days. Smith, who fs in jail, was the shipping clerk at the bureau, while Longstreet was the packer. The former, who is 4 married man, while admitting being one of the par- ty which was accompanied by the two wo- men to New York, is anxious to have it un- derstood that he never visited an immoral resort here for an immoral purpose, and that on the trip to New York he was so in- toxicated that he knew nothing until he sobered up in that city, Smith declares that he is entirely innocent, and claims that the stamps, if they were stolen, were not taken from the bureau of engraving and printing by Longstreet, who was in the employ of the company, says Smith, until he (Longstreet) was appointed to his position in the bureau last August.
