RAIN OSTPONEME: Interstate Democrats Wi River V Have the w Rally This Week. The rain caused a postponement until next Wednesday evening of the Bryan and Sewall rally which was to have taken Place under the a s of the Interstate atic jon at River View Saturday night. Ex-Gov. Chauncey F. ack of Pennsylvania, who had been in- the meeting, regretted h ept in a letter, in which ne ong other things, that “The most remarkable feature of the present contest he spontaneous movement of the peo- ple in the formation of heme clubs, and their union in local, state and national or- Sanizations for mutual support and pro- tection against the seductions and intimi- dations of the great aggregation of mo- Nepolics arrayed against them. I say this is a movement of the people, for while a few prosperous gentlemen, hitherto known ‘ats, putting the inierest of their e that of their country, are go- ing over to Mr. Hanna with all the noise meney can make, the people, with small card to previous party alignments, take their piaces—thousands of patriotic voters ntatious deserter. Not a club a hundred is formed but the report rge proportion of honest republ as in the membership, who put country party, and are not ready to declare » dependence of American finances and can industries upon either foreign powers or domestic trusts.” Mr. Black also declared that the fact that the present issue was between the plain people on the one hand and the great combination which proposes to monopolize An markets and to crush the in- cepe of American labor on the other was instinciively understood. ‘There will be no change in the program already prepared for the meeting Wednes- day —_—__ Institute Orchestra. The Carroll Institute Orchestra entered upon its fourth season by holding a meet- ing and electing officers, resulting as fol- lows: Wm. H. Lepley, president (re-elect- Carrol ed); Otto L. Wolfsteiner, vice president; Dr. W. E_ Dieffenderfer, secretary (re- elected); Wm. S. McCarthy, treasurer (re- € d), and Theodore Urban, librarian. Mr. Ben Judson will be retained as musical director. The success of this organization during the past season was very gratifying and a credit to the management. It fs pro- posed to give an entertainment on the even- ing of October 8, when Miss Judson, the Madrids and other select talent will take part. a A Lamb Slaying and Cake Walk. A Labor day fete, under the auspices of the Laborers’ Protective Union, will be given for the benefit of Salem Baptist Church, at Robinson's Park, corner 18th street and Florida avenue. The affair will consist of a union picnic and lamb slaying, and preparations are being made by those in charge of the fete for a big crowd. The amusements will consist of a cakewalk in the evening, dancing, muste and refresh: ments, and everything over and above actual expenses will be presented to the church above mentioned.

The Exercises in the Two Syna- gogues—A Season of Penitence— Origin of the Rites. The beginning ef the Hebrew New Year, which occurs at sunset this evening,. will be observed with all the solemnities with which the people of that race regard as appropriate to so solemn an occasion, at Ecth the synagogues in this city. At the synagogue of the Washington Hebrew congregation on Sth street be- tween H and I streets northwest there will be a short service commencing at 6:30 o'cicek. The exercises will be conducted by Rev. Dr. Louis Stern, and will consist mainly of psalms and prayers, although there will be some fine music, under the direction of Dr. George W. Walter, organist, and which will be rendered by a quartet, com- posed of Mrs. Nellie Wilson Shir-Clift, so- prano; Mrs. Nolan-Martin, ; Mr. W. D. McFariand, tenor, and Mr. John Nolan, bass. The services at the Adas Israel congre- gation, corner of 6th and G streets north- west, will be conducted by the pastor, Rev. Dr. Samuels. The exercises will com- mence at 6 o'clock and continue for about two houre. At this synagogue there will also be two services, morning and after necn, of the foilowing day, and on the morning of Wednesday, but it is expected that Rabbi Samuels will be assisted in the exercises by members of his congrega- tien. A Season of Penitence. Unlike the Christian new year, whose birth ts regarded with joy and expectancy, the opening of the Hebrew new year, ac- companied, as it is, with the ten days of repentance, 1s distinguished as a season of penitence. In the words of one of its most devoted adherents, “it possesses peculiar properties, which at once appeal to the re- ligious feelings of man, drawing out and exercising his latent spirituality. It re- moves him from the mundane spheres of iniquity and vice to the heaven of holiness and sanctity, there to commune in soli- tude with his Maker. “It ts appropriate that the new year be marked as an occasion foz fervid devotion, which is but a preparation for the strug- gles and temptations of the ensuing year. And in accordance with the rationale of Jewish ethics, this preparation, like a puri- fication and expurging process, will ever be continued thro.ghout this life, to fit one for the future state, as pictured by an ancient sage: ‘This world may be likened to a court yard in comparison with the future world; therefore, prepare thyself in the ante-chamber, that thou mayest en- ter into the banquet hall.” “After the stress of the ‘fearful days,’ S they are termed, is over, the penitent, purged of his sins, is free and light-heart- ed, his whole being alive with new feel- ings, and his mind concerned with high re- solves, yet never forgetting that life is always to be regarded as a school of pro- bation, where men’s actions are accurate- iy weighed in the scales of justice. Origin of the Rites. There is something peculiarly touching tn these ceremonies, which are practiced wherever the race is to be found in every section of the world. The rites had their origin at the close of the period of bondage under which their forefathers suffered, in the days of Moses, and just before that great law giver—the greatest of all history bade his people, whom he had in the wili- derness for forty years, ascend the moun- tain, at the command of Jehovah, to ob- tain a view of the promised land, which he was not permitted to enter. It was here that Moses died and was buried by, it 1s said, the hand of the Divine Being himself. When, many years later, they were car- ried atay captives to Babylon they kept alive the love and veneration for the forms of worship as revealed for their observance through Moses, and even when, centuries later, their capital was destroyed by the Roman armies they soared in their belief above those by whom they were conquered. The Hebrew faith teaches today, as it did more than 5,000 years ago, that each individual is alone responsible to his Maker, and that no rabbi, priest or minister dare offer an excuse or mediation for a knowing sin. As has been appropriately said by a re- cent writer, “When Europe was a wilder- ness, peopled by savages, the Jews were learned in arts, political economy and sci- ence. Today their learned men, savants, are among the most brilliant thinkers and writers of modern times. Across the mon- strous dial of time the slowly moving hands of Hebrew chronology have crept resist- lessly. Ridicule, persecution, fanaticism, have not halted them, and the new year dawns brightly for the race.’ —_—_ DEPARTURE OF LI HUNG CHANG. Crowds Brave the Weather to See the Viceroy Leave the Capital. Li Hung Chang and his party left Wash- ington Saturday evening over the Pennsyl- vania railroad in a special train for Niagara Falls, where he arrived safely yesterday morning. It was the first time the Chinese viceroy had ever slept on a railway train. The departure from the Arlington was made at 5:30 o'clock, and for half an hour before that time the cavalry from Fort Myer, under Colonel Sumner, occupied the square in front of the hotel, and with the large crowd filled it comfortably. The cavalry escorted the imperial embassy to the depot, and the avenue was well thronged ‘with people, who frequently cheered the procession. The threatening weather prevented the expected great crowd at the depot, but 2,000 persons were ccngregated there. Captain Austin and 100 policemen were on duty and kept the way epen for the viceroy and his escort. The latter arrived at 5:40, and Li Hung Chang at once entered his sedan chair and was carrie] to the train, bowing to the spec- tators as he passed in. The Chinese min- ister and Mr. John W. Foster were the last to bid the viceroy good-bye. The special train left at 6 o'clock. Those who accompanied the viceroy besides his suite were General Ruger, Major G. W. Davis, Capt. S. C. Miles and Lieut. A. S. Cummins, together with representatives of the Associated Press and the United Press. eee Saas COLORED SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION. Its Annual Meeting Held 1 braith Chapel Yesterday. The annual meeting of the colored Sun- day School Union of the District was held yesterday afternoon in Galbraith Chapel, 6th street between L and M streets. Re- ports of retiring officers were presented ard accepted, showing a healthy condition of the affairs of the umon, and the new officers were installed. Rev. J. A. Colbert, pastor of Galbraith Chepel, delivered the address of weicome, and a service of song was led by L. A. Cernish. Reports were read showing the presence of delegates from thirty Sunday schcols in the District; that all the anaual expenses had been met and a balance re- mained in the treasury; that 554 conver- sicns had been made in the schools, and that a vigorous campaign had been marked out for the approaching fall season. Rev. J. L. Thomas, pastor of Asbury A. M. E. Church, delivered the instalia- tion address to the new officers: President, P. B. Bagley; vice president, E. J. Maul- ten; recording secretary, Miss M. I. Throckmorton; corresponding secretary, Dr. Frank J. Webb; treasurer, Miss Cus- berd. President Bagley spoke briefly, and Dr. Webb announced plans for a mass meeting in the interest of the colored Sunday schools, to be held the 27th instant in the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, at which time reports will be read by Miss Mattic Bowen ard William Jarvis, delegates from the District to the International Sunday School Union in Boston. An address was delivered by Rev.

The Robinson and Franklin Show’s Creditable Display—Crowded Matinee. Although e circus in Washington at this time of the year is a little unusual, the novelty had the effect of bringing out rather than keeping back those who have circus-going propensities. When the doors leading to the big animal tent were open- ed this afternoon for the regular matinee an immense crowd surged around the en- trance, and.it was soon seen that although the aggregation was rew to the city, it would oor be an old favorite. By the time the =performance was begun nearly every seat in the big canvas structure was filled, and the show that was presented gladdened the heart of every one who was there. The different feats that were per- formed were worthy of the closest atten- tion, and tumultuous applause greeted the different actors as they made their appfear- ance and exit. Some of those who delight- ed the vast number of spectators were Robert Stickney, equestrian; Rose Dock- rel, equestrienne; Silbon and Segrist, mid- air tumblers; Mile. Reynolds, premier cor- netist, and a host of others too numerous to give each a separate mention. The races that were given were spirited, and lack that feature so often seen, of being ap- parently “put-up” jobs. The animal tent proved a source of wonder to all of the spectators, who gave It a thorough inspec- tion, both before and after the verform- ance. There will be four performances in this city, this evening, tomorrow after- noop and tomorrow night. The parade this morning evenly divided terest with the Labor day demonstr: and had a little the advantage on accour of its being on the ground first. Quite a departure was noticed in this feature of the great show, and this was the perform- ers, who rode, in ordinary dress, in smart traps hauled by the prettiest horses im- aginable, instead of being decked out in the gaudy tinsel and glitter which is a prerequisite of the ring. The parade was a lengthy one, end served to amuse the large crowds gathered along the avenue and other streets iraversed to receive it for a long time. ‘The Jokn Robinson and Franklin Brothers’ circus 1s the result of long experience, and hard, faithful work on the part of the managers and owners of the enterprise. It started in an extremely modest manner, as a small show, and it has been built up by additions of performers and other features, until now it is one of the finest aggrega- tions of its kind on the road today. One of the particularly pleasant features about this show fs the fact that there are but two rings and one stage, which allows the spectators to see everything, and not be obliged to miss what is going on in one. or the other end of the big tent. The show originally ran three rings and two stages, but the management, perceiving this s rious detriment of the comfort and amui ment of patrons, decided change in the arrangement Although the rings and. sta 5 duced in number, the same roll of perform- ers was carried, so that It Is one of the most complete shows, as well as one of th best equipped to be found anywhe The circus is located at the corner of ol and L streets, which is easy of 38, and there is every indication that the aggregation will meet with the same attended it in all the the country. ——— DISTRICT REPUBLICANS. ational Clubs to Con- solidate. Republicans of the District of Columbia are greatly pleased over the prospecitve censolidation of the Union Repub! n and the National Republican clubs of this which will shortly he effected, and wt they claim, will enable Di to obtain greater results than in the p - At its regular meeting last day evening the Union Republican Club adopted unani- mously a resolution for the consolidati of the two organizations.

Eppley, Frank M. son, F. M. Heaton, J. Gideon, W. H. Slater, R. S. Lacey and E. M. Willis. These persons, together with a number of others, formed a new organiza- tion, called the National Republican Club, of which Charles P. Lincoln ts president: A. M. Clapp, Gen. S. 8. Burdett, J. W. Douglass, Thomas C. Lletcher and J. D. Croissant, vice presidents; B. F. Crawshaw, secretary; Wm. Oscar Roome, treasurer Alphonso Hart, chairman of the exect committee: Lewis Clephane, vice chair Benj. P. Davis, chairman’ of membership committee, and Louis D. Wine, chairman of auditing committee. The National Club has held its meetings in G. A. R. Hall, 14th street and Pennsyi- vania avenue. Soon after the withdrawal the Union Club moved from Willard’s Ho- tel to 923 F street, where it has s remained. Shortly afterward the offi president and secretary were vacated. H. Hall, F. M. Dr. A. P. Fardon, a vice president, was made president, and Mr. Kraemer secretary. The members worked earnestly, and a nti~ ment in favor of consolidating the clubs was manifested unanimously, which result- ed in a committee being appointed from the Union Club and a similar committee from the National Club to confer together, with a view to uniting the two organiza- tions. Last Friday these two committees held a joint meeting. There were present from the Union Club Messrs. Bramhall, Elliott, Riley and Purvis and from the Na_ tional Messrs. Hart, Cook, Crawshaw and Dedge. It was found they were unanimous for consolidation, and it was suggested that the officers of both clubs resign their re- spective places; that the new organization be called the National Union Republican Club; that a joint committee be constituted by the respective clubs to report officers, constitution and all the necessary details to effect and promote the new united organization. Accordingly, at the meeting of the Union Club Friday last all the off- cers resigned. A special meeting of the National Club has been called for tomor- row evening to consider the question of consolidation, at which it 1s expected simi- lar action will be taken, after which the work of forming and completing the new organization will promptly follow. The joint committee to perfect the details of consolidation will meet Wednesday evening and report the result of their labors back to their respective clubs, and at a grand initial meeting the “National Union Re- publican Club” will be formally and en- thusiastically started on its new career.

The prospect for a pewltry show in Wash- ington next winter is:good. The National Poultry and Pigeon Association held its first fall meeting Wednesday -night and consid- ered plans for the coming exhibition. The dates selected last winter--January 12 to 16, irclusive, Tuesday to Saturday—will be ad- hered to. It is expected that all entries will be in place this season promptly Tues- day morning, when prograzns will be in the hall and the show will be under full headway. Judges will, it is planned, be on hand Tuesday and make their decisions early in the exhibition, in order that the public may know which are the ideal birds and that exhibitors may have the fullest advantage of the show. Mr. A. L. Gardner of Springfield, Md., has been chosen superintendent of the poultry department, ard Mr. Joseph E. Bardroff of this city will act as superin- terdent of the pigeon department. Mr. Gardner is an old and experienced poultry- man, and his work will contribute to a suc- cessful exhibition. Mr. Bardroff is well known as an enthusiastic lover of pigeons, and it would be hard to find a better super- intendent than Mr. Bardroff will make. The selection of judges will be made at a meeting of the association to be held next Wednesday. As at the last show, when the best-known judges in the United States were secured, the selections this year will be above all criticism. The exhibition will be held in Center Mar- ket Hall, where it was last winter. The arrangement of the coops will be different in order to gain room and make a more satisfactory display of stock. The narrow aisles and high single tiers of coops shut out the light, and at times made it impos- sible to study the plumage and points of the fow ‘The cat department will be omitted this year.

Professor Reynolds fastened his wheel to the balloon with which he has been making ascents at the View, and at the height of 6,000 feet mounted the seat of the machine and pro- ceeded to pedal as leisurely as though he were on the finest road in the land. When the parachute was cut loose Professor Rey- nolds still retained his seat, and both the rider and wheel floated over the river in s@fety.
