MoBee’s Elequeat Leotare on Ohurch | Architecture, | Superb Presentation of fhe Beautiful Cathedrals and Temples of the Old World. ‘The lecture by Mr. Silas McBee of New York at Metzerott’s last evening on church architecture was worthy of a large audi- ence, which would doubtless have been present if the public had been generally aware of its attractive character. Those who heard Mr. McBee had a treat far out of the ordinary in point of literary excel- lence and pictorial illustration. ‘The lecturer is a native of the south, an old friend and schoolmate of Secretary Smith and a graduate of Suwanee Uni- versity, Tennessee. He has given years of special study to church architecture, and is the architect of several public buildings that mark his commanding talent in this. line of aspiration and effort. Among these are the buildings for the Suwanee Univers- ity and the Episcopale Church at Nash- ville. -The lecture last evening dealt with ex- teriors, and views of all the great cathe- drals and temples of Europe and the east were projected by a stereopticon, making a series of pictures rarely equated in beauty and dignity. What Has Been Done. Mr. McBee led the way to:the presentation of these pictures by an eloquent exordium upon the inception and unfolding of man’s expression in stone of his spiritual as- pirations. The low horizontal lines of Egyptian architecture with its depressing, awful voice, Mr. McBee placed at the foun- dation of the gamut of expression in stone. From that he proceeded to show the su- perior excellence of the perpendicular lines of the Greek temples. From that he went on to give the characteristic features of the Romanesque and finally lingered on the Gothic style as the upper note in the scale and that which represents the highest religious feeling of man. Speaking of church architecture in America, Mr. McBee said it had not yet been undertaken. Where was the church any one would go 10,000 miles to see as men go to see the grand cathedrals of the old world? Trinity in New York he praised, but that was not a great structure in its architectural quality. Site for a Cathedral. To Washington he paid a warm tribute of praise as the most beautiful city in the world, and the fitting seat for a great na- tional cathedral. Throughout Mr. McBee was earnestly and devoutly intent on mak- ing architecure a truthful and sincere ex- pression in cathedrals and churches of the spiritual longing and uplifting of man through the ministrations and invitations of the Christian religion. His lecture was one not only to enjoy, but to cause one to think and to feel moved to higher thoughts of life and the destiny of the living. Tonight Mr. McBee will lecture at the same place on the interiors, of cathvdrals and churches, and regarding*last evening's lecture as an earnest of that announced for tonight, those who attend will enjoy a splendid treat.. Se Another Charge of Hlegal Street Oc- cupation. ‘To the Editor of The Evening Star: The agitation goirg on against street rail- way usurpation ought to work good re- sults; but will it? The Eckington railway have for over a year usurped a part of the public thoroughfare at the junction of New York avenue and 5th street, notwithstand- ing protest after protest has been_sent to the District Commissioners. Prior to this new departure the residents of this beauti- ful avenue had thought that even if the company had been given the right to plough through the center of the street they would be allowed to retain the right to walk down their sidewalks without molestation, but the “Mystic Three” have decreed, with the kind consent of the’ rail- road company and the concurrence of the ptlice on duty, that any man, woman or child who wishes to stroll down New York avenue shall stop at 5th street, circle around the horse car of the company, strike 5th street on the west side and proceed on his journey. This proceeding becomes quite annoying to a fantily who did it over 2,000 times within a year. These cars for- merly stood south of L street, where they Gid not impede the progress of any pedes- trian, and justice demands that they be re- turned to their old stamping ground. \ Noth- ing less will satisfy the people.

Y., to a Star reporter this morning, “was one ofthe several dates fixed by the follow: of William Miiler, founder of sect of Adventists for the millennium, and the end of the world, I was a boy in Buf- falo at the time, perkaps twelve ycars of age, and have quite a distinct recollection of the scenes of that occasion. Father Miller, as he was generally called by his followers, had made Buffalo his head- quarters for many months, and lived with- in a few doors of my father’s house, so that his goings and comings were immedi- ately under our observation. It will be Temembered that there had been two or three disappointments before the spring of 1844, and two at least of the scheduled catastrophes that were to engulf the world had failed to materialize. But by his preaching in Beffalo Miller had set upon the 23d of April at midnight as the time for the end of all things earthly, ard for the ascension of the living followers of the new faith. As in, most of the other Targe cities of the country where Father Miller’s dcctrine had spread among the people, there was a tremendous enthusi- asm on the part of thousands upon thou- sands of men and women, who espoused his cause and subscribed to his doctrines. Sold Out Their Belongings. “I can recall distinctly many individual cases of almoSt fanatical belief that the world would come to an end on the 23d of April. Men of prosperity were so stricken with the ferver that they disposed of their goods in anticipation of the general collapse. Some men sold their houses, and some arti- sans their tools. I have in mind especially one case of a very prosperous maker of ships’ spars, which was then a lucrative business owing to the great sailing traffic on the lakes. He owned several houses and had a large and valuable stock of spars in His yard on Buffalo creek, and was in al- together easy and prosperous circumsances. He was completely carried away by the millennium fever, and determined to leave the world as he entered it, devoid of wealth or goods. He sold every dollar's worth of goods in the world he possessed, even his tcols, and signed a covenant to relinquish possession the 23d of April. It compietely wrecked his life, for he never again secured even a competence. “It was a bad winter, and the ice in Lake Erie was very thick. A part of the pro- gram of the Millerites was baptism, and the people were taken in hundreds, perhaps in thousands, to the shores of the lake and there immersed in the icy water. It was a most dangerous thing: to do, for the water was icy cold, and it was necessary, in or- der to get a clear spot for the immersion, to cut through sometimes two and three feet of ice. A very old lady, who lived next to my father’s house, probably upward’ of eighty, was takeh with the prevailing en- thusiasm, and I remember well seeing her taken away from the ‘house on Sunday morning and driven down to the shores of the lake to be baptized. “The meetings of the Millerites were held in enormous tents, a$ well as {n halls and private houses. The«eriod of waiting be- fore the appointed date was filled with pro- tracted meetings, by ‘means of which the enthusiasm of the followers was kept at white heat. Robes were prepared in which the ascension was ta,bé,made. The night of the 23d, fifty-one years ago this night, the main body of the believers met, under the leadership of Miler ‘himself, in an im- mense hall in the center of the city, the floor of which was approached only by a long flight of stairs on the outside. Honxed by the Boys. “The entrance was.very narrow, and some of the wicked boys of the neighbor- hood concocted a plan to cause a fright among the péople, wh6 early inthe even- ing had gone to the hall with their white robes, to pass the time until midnight in prayer and song. When the hail was filled and the exercises were at their height some of these boys and young men, eager for mischief, stole softly up the outer stairway and tied the door securely with ropes and barred it with beams on the‘out- side so fast that it could not possibly be opened from the inside.. “At midnight, the hour appointed for the ascension, the conspirators in the street below blew horns and raised a terrific din, which was heard by the waiting ascension+ ists in the hall, who interpreted it as the signal of the millennium. At first they re- sponded by singing with renewed enthust- asm and energy, but as the time went by and the expected denouement did not take place, they began to suspect a trick, and somebody tried to open the door. Then there was almost a panic when it was dis- covered that they had been locked in, and that the noise came from the boys in the street. They were kept in the hall all night, and at about sunrise somebody, who had missed some of them from home, went down to the hall and cut the door open. Clad in their white robes, the sheepish as- censionists sought their homes, some of them made paupers by their folly in dis- posing of their goods. “It was many months before Buffalo re- covered from the shock that these events gave to her business interests. I do not know where Miller went from Buffalo after the failure of this prediction of his, but I know that his followers there were still, in most cases, faithful to him.” see THE ATLANTA EXPOSITION. The Local Commission of Colored Men Call at the District Buildings. At a special meeting of the District Com- missioners this morning the local com- mission of colored men appointed to look after the District’s exhibit at the Atlanta exposition, appeared to lay before the Commissioners certain facts in reference to the work to be done. A memorial was présented outlining: the scopg of the work and proposing an exhibit to c&st $10,000 to be sent. to Atlanta. Funds for this work will be collected from the citizens. The District Commissioners were asked to set aside $3,000 from the contin- gent or other fund to assist the work, which, they were told, would be a credit to the District. Commissioner Ross said such a thing was impossible. The Commissioners were heart- ily in favor of the exhibit, but they had no power to divert congressional appro- priations. The Commissioners would lend their encouragement to the work and do all in their power to make the exhibit a success. A letter from the Atlanta exposition of- ficials addressed to the colored people of the District of Columbia, authorizing the local commission referred to to circulate subscription papers and pursue such other plans as may be necessary to secure suffi- cient funds to meet the expenses of this work. —~. Denth of Capt. Joseph C. Torrens. Capt. Joserh C. Torrens died this noon at his home, 701 D street southeast, in con- sequence of injuries resulting from a mis- step last Wednesday night. As he was en- tering Hostetter’s Hallito attend an en- tertainment he stepped aside to let two ladies pass, and in some way lost his foot- ing and fell. The back of his neck struck violently on the corner of a step, and he was unable to rise. He was carried home and medical aid summoned. It was found that paralysis had resulted from a fracture of the seventh cervical vertebra, and he had lost us¢ of arms and legs, and entire paralysis of the stomach and intestines had ensued. A council of physicians was held and the best aid available secured, but on Friday all hope of recovery was given up. Capt. Torrens was an old official at the jail, where for twenty-four years he had served most faithfully. He tock part in all the executions there, and had a large fund os reminiscences of several prominent criminals. He was discharged in July of last year by Warden Leonard, and reap- pointed about two months ago and again discharged about a month ago after a fort- night’s illness. He was born in Barcelona, Spain, and was seventy-four years old. He served through the war of the rebellion in a Washington regiment, and reached the rank of captain. He belonged to the G. A. R., was a Mason and a Knight of Pythias. Capt. Torrens left a wife and four sons, Josenb. Manuel. Eugene and Francia. Japan’s Official Statement Regarding Treaty With China. = The Mikado Entirely Satisfied With the Principal Points—An Im- perial Proclamation. ‘The following ts the text of the state- ment issued by the Japnnese government denying the reports that it has concluded an offensive and defensive alliance with China, and declaring that the commercial advantages secured by Japan will also be enjoyed by the other powers under the fa- vored nation treatment: “Misapprepensions are reported to be cur- rent in Europe regarding the terms of the Japo-Chinese treaty. It has been repre- sented that Japan has secured a two per cent ad valorem duty on imports instead of a specified duty and has also formed an offensive and defensive alliance with China. The commercial concessions obtained by Japan beyond those already secured by the treaty powers under the favored nation clause _cemprise the right to navigate the Yang Tse Kiang to Chung King and also the Woon Sung river and the canals lead- ing to Soo Chow and Hang Chow and the right to import machinery and certain goods duty free and to establish factories. ‘These concessions are not exclusively to Japan, they naturally extend to the Euro- pean powers in virtue of the favored na- tion clause. In securing these privileges for all Japan expects the approval of all the powers. “The reported offensive and defensive al- liance does not exist.” An imperial proclamation just issued ex- horts the nation to moderation at the pres- ent juncture of the country’s history. To Exchange Ratifications. Chief Secretary Itomiyoji of the foreign office has been oppointed Japanese plenipo- tentiary to exchange the ratifications of the peace treaty. He will proceed to Che- foo, where the exchange will be made. The temporary headquarters of the emperor will be transferred on April 27 from Hiro- shima to Kioto. An official dispatch says that Count Ito, president of the Japanese council of minis- ters, and Viscount Mutzu, the Japanese minister for foreign affairs, the two offi- cials who negotiated the treaty of peace with Viceroy Li Hung Chang, and his son, Lord Li, at Shimoreseki, were received in audience by the emperor on their return to Hircshima. ‘The emperor said: “The principal points of the treaty are entirely satisfactory and add much to the glory of the empire. I am highly pleased at the signal service rendered by you.” Japanese Imperial Proclamation. The following imperial proclamation was issued yesterday afternoon: “Through peace national prosperity is best promoted. Un- fortunately, the rupture of relations with China forced upon us a war which, after the lapse of ten months, Is not yet ended. During this period our ministers, in con- cert with the army, navy and diet, have done all in their power to further our aims in obedience to our instructions. Our ar- dent desire, with the assistance of our sub- jects, in loyalty and sincerity, is to restore peace, and thereby attain our object—the promotion of national prosperity. Now that peace Is negotiated and an armistice prociaimed, a permanent cessation of hos- Ulities is near at hand. The terms of peace fixed by our ministers of state give us com- plete Satisfaction. The peace and glory thus secured render the present a fitting time to declare to you, our good subjects, the object kept in our view and to enlight- en you as to the course of our future policy China Must Be Respected. “We are rejoiced at the recent victories which have enhanced the glory of our em- pire. At the same time we are aware that the end of the road which must be travers- ed by the empire in the march of civiliza- tion is still far distant and remains to be attained. We therefore hope, in common th our loyal subjects, that we shall al- ways guard against self-contentedness and ever, in a spirit of modesty and humility, strive t> perfect our military defense with- out falling into extremes. In short, it is our wish that the government and the people shall work to a common end and that our subjects of all classes strive, each in his sphere, for the purpose of -laying the foundation of permanent prosperity. “It is hereby definitely made known that no countenance will be given by us to such as, through concert at the recent victories, may offer insult to other states or injure our relations with friendly powers, espe- cially as regards China. After the ex- change of the ratifications of the treaty of peace friendship should be restored and endeavors made to increase more than ever before the relations of good neigh- borhood. It is our pleasure that our sub- jects pay due respect to these, our ex- pressed wishes.” Japan Ratifies the Treaty. A dispatch from Hiroshima,the temporary headquarters of the Emperor of Japan, states that his majesty ratified the treaty of peace China on Saturday.
