10 re ON THE TRAM O'Leary, Rowell, Harriman and Banis Walk~ ing for the Astley Belt EACH CONFIDENT OF VICTORY. —_——_—_.+—_——_ The Start Witnessed by Thousands of Enthusiastic Spectators. At one o'clock this morning O'Leary, Rowell, Harriman and Ennis etarted on’ their long tramp of six days, less two hours, The contest is for the Astley belt, emblematic of the long distance cham- pionship of the world, and the gate receipts, which promise to be unusually large. Gilmore’s Garden, where the competition is taking place, never looked to better advantage. There was a bright and clean eppearance about the entire vast enclosure that made everybody cheerful. ‘The flooring of the inner circle was as free from dirt as a country kitchen and the boxes and seats as fresh and sweet as vig- orous sweeping, scrubbing and dusting could make them. ‘he cottages of the men also appeared attractive, snd being liberally furnished, as noted in the HERALD of yesterday, are as cosy, comfortable and complete as the most exact. Ing pedestrian could require. Early in the evening the doors had been thrown open and anxious crowds rushed in, though several hours were to elapse be- fore they could see the men. The judges’ and scorers’ stand seemed the next attraction after the houses of the competitors and many gathered aboutit, but fortunately the precautions taken against annoy- ance and interruption in thut respect acted charm- ingly. Across the track, opposite the scorers, placards were placed ready to record the laps made by the contestants, and these wese arranged in this wise:— Miles, Laps. The huge blackboard was ready, the track in mag- nificont shape, and the measurement made by Mr. Charles H. Haswell, the engineer and surveyor, on Friday last, having been verified sinco the curves were set, the fullest satisfaction was expressed in this particular. Its condition was & compromise between the hard track wanted by runners and the softer surface desired by walkers. The ground was spaded very thoroughly and then the covering of sawdust applied, after which the rollers were set in motion and kept going for several hours, THE CROWD INCREASING. At ten o’clock there were 1,200 persons in the Gar- den, many ladies being present with escorts. A lil extended down the sidewalk fully to Twenty-six! street at this hour, and the ticket sellers had as much as they could possibly attend to, The sidewalks on Madison avenue were thronged with respectable looking people, and the anxiety seemed to be to catch 3 glimpse of the competitors as they entered the building. By half-past eleven o'clock 3,000 persons were present, and the stream pouring in At the entrance was simply marvellous. A band was on hand, and for an hour or more played selections of sacred music, but near midnight more lively strains were indulged in. ‘Baby Mine” appeared to be a favorite and was loudly encored, Speculations, bets, suggestions and anxious words were made by the score. HEAVY ODDS. Bookmakers were on the floor and offering their odds. One individual wanted to bet 3 to 4 against O'Leary as many times and for as much as any one wanted. Al. Smith, the gentleman always behind the champion in his walks, walked up to the throng surrounding the bookmaker, and said that he would take $1,000 on the terms offered. The bookmaker reflected a moment, and giving Mr. Smith $300 worth, put up his book, and immediately afterward reduced his odds. Indi- vidual wagers were made by the hundred, and the tramping of thousands of fect and the running of hun across the inner circle every few minutes caused great excitement and many ludircous inci- dents. AT MIDNIGHT. At midnight there were 4,000 present, and the stream of ticket buyers extended four deep to Fourth avenue around both Tweuty-sixth and Twen- ty-seventh streets. Many distinguished citizens, in- juding judges, lawyers and politicians, were among ‘the number in the garden. THE MEN. John Ennis, of Chicago, IL, is 5 feet 8 inches in ‘dis stockings, and weighed this morning 156 lbs. He was born at Richmond Harbor, county Longford, . Age, 36 years. Charles A. Harriman, of Boston, Mass., is 6 fect 1 inch, and went on the track at about 163 lbs. He is a native of Whiteficld, Me. Age, 26 years, Daniel O'Leary is 5 feet 81, inches in height, and started upon his long journey weighing 145 Iba. He was born at Clonakilty, county Cork, Ireland. ‘Age, 32 years. Charles Rowell, the English candidate, is 5 feet 6 inehes high, weighed this morning 140 Ibs., and was born at Chesterton, Cambridgeshire, England, Age, 25 years. Up to within two hours of the time of starting the men were soundly sleeping at their respective ho- tels. The attendants they had engayed were awaiting their coming, und had the several cottages looking pleasantly to receive them, The fiirst to arrive was Rowell, and the test excitement was manifested by those know- Iug the circumstance to get a good look at him. The door of his house was shut in their faces, and in a fow minutes something cise called them sway, leaving the strangers in comparative peace. The jam was growing worse and worse every min- ute, and with the fresh accession of hundreds, the bookmakers shouted their odds in louder tom was 2 to 1 against Rowell, Harriman and 12 to 1 against ‘There were many betters. They were not very anx- fous to lay against O'Leary, some wauting 1% to 1, the champion becoming a favorite at the last moment. At halt-past twelve o'clock the competitors are ready and waiting for the call to the trnck. The judges and scorer were in place to note the starting of the human machines, Rowell came out of his house at this time and walked around the track, his appearance causing loud cheers. Ennis shortly after made a circuit in company with his wife, and so soon as recog- nish was warmly welcomed. Neither Har. riman or O'Leary took a preliminary spin- ‘Whenever anybody was seen on the track there wero & thousand yells. The spectators seemed almost crazy, and were not able to wait for the eventful bour. ‘MR, CURTIS TO THE MEN. A few minutes before one o'clock, William B. Cur- tis, of the New York Athletic Club, called the men to judges’ stand and in a few words gave them rules which they must observe. They might of going around the — truck ne lap before wanting to do #0; they must take the outside of track.

Ennis had the inside, O'Leary next, Harriman third and Rowell the outside. Eunis wore white «hirt aud drawers with Diue trunks; O'Lewy’s costume was white shirt and drawers, with black Velvet trunks; Harrigan was in white shirt and drawors aud purple trunks; Rowell wore a gray shirt, lilac drawers, with an upper trimming of blue, Just before the start O"Leary and Rowell were each presented with a golden horseshoe. ‘Tne four went away on a walk and continued this mode of progression for several laps. lowell commenced to run on the second lap, and Ginished his first mile in 9m. 2 O'Leary first mile was in 10m. 27., the eighth lap being on a jog.

PROFESSOR FELIX ADLEE ON THE ETHICS OF PROPERTY—A DEFENCE OF COMMUNISM. In considering to-day the ethics of property, said Professor Felix Adler in opening his lecture at Standard Hall yesterday, it will be necessary at the very outset to refer to a prevalent mistake on the subject. The writers of legal text books commonly represent that property is an ancient institution, Communism, on the other hand, is represented as an innovation, but quite the contrary is true, The most recent investigations have established the fact that all human society was at one time founded on Communistic plans. The weight of years is on the side of Communism; also the weight of authority. The animus of Jesus is still more plainly against riches. “The rich man shall hardly enter the kingdom of heaven,” He says; the young man who asks how he may become perfect, is told to distribute all his possessions among the poor. And is not the meaning of the well known passage in the second chapter of Acts unmistakable, where it is said that the members of tho earliest Christian Church lived together and had all things in com- mon. Moreover, Communism does not mean absolutely an innovation. It is already prac tised on a large scale, as witness the village communities of Hindostan and Russia, which con- tain millions of human beings devotedly attached to their Communistic institutions. It is foolish to use the word “Communism” as a term of reproach or to identify assassins or incendiaries with pure men like Robert Owen, not to speak of the ancients— Plato, Jesus, et al. But Communism at the present day is impracticable. The men are not living who could act out so high a plan of living. Practically Communism would lead to.a despotism of an indi- vidual or the despotism of the many, both alike in- tolerable to every free soul. RIGHTS OF PROPERTY. Let us inquire, then, why the right of individual property should be held sacred. The reason as- signed by writers on political economy seems plausi- ble enough at first sight, but proves unsatisfactory. ‘They say, “Every man has a sacred right to enjoy the fruits of his own labor and dispose of them as he may think fit.” But let us look at this more closely, On coming into the world we find everything pre- pared for “us. We need shelter, but houses are already built. We need the fruits of the earth, but we need not begin to subdue the primeval forest. If we turn to the higher things that de- mand foreknowledge we find there also that great preparation has n made. The economist says truly “I have a right to the products of my labor; but if the possessions which I enjoy are the result of labor long antedating my own existence; if mny very faculties have been built up for me by others—by the human race—then to the human race belongs what I can produce; then all I add to the general fund does not begin to pay back my debt. My intel- lect and my possessions are tho capital loaned to me by mankind; the increase which I am able to effect is barely the interest, But who has ever heard that the interest belongs to the borrower? Is it not a simple.rule of business that the interest belo! to the lender? And mankind is the lender and "Yam the borrower, and to mankind, therefore, belongs all Iam and have.’’ The centralization of wealth must be checked by methods of decentralization. Co-operation is one, progressive taxation hus been suggested as another; John Stuart Mill, whom no one will accuse of headlong radicalism, proposes the curtailment of the right of inheritance as a third. He points out how the children of the rich would derive from such a measure the greatest benetit. BISHOP SPALDING ON. THE CATHOLIC CHURCH, The first of a course of five lectures in behalf of a new Children’s Homo was delivered by Right Rev. J. L. Spalding, Bishop of Peoria, Ill., before a large audience in St. Michael's Church, West Thirty-second street, last ovening. The subject was, “Ihe Catholic Church, the Church of Jesus Christ.” What would human life be, said the Bishop, but for the charm which attaches to the truths of re- ligion? It gives that immortal hope that is peculiar to the heart of man and holds out to him eternal happiness. Iam about to prove to you that the Catholic Church is identical with the religion of God, that Catholicism and religton are one. The Christian religion is the only true religion, and it that is not true then all religion is an error. All the most precious things we enjoy in this world are traceable directly to the influence of the religion of Christ. Where are we to look if we would hear the truth that Jesus Christ has proclaimed, the voice that speaks trom Him to man? Our Saviour is a histor- ical personage. He lived on earth in a historical time. We know the methods that He adopted to spread His religion. Our blessed Lord, when He had arrived at maturity, gathered about him a few simple minded, ignorant men. They followed Him, and to them He gave fuller information of Himself than He gave to the crowds which assembled to hear His teachings. They were to be His apostles, to preach His word after He had left this earth, Jesus Christ called upon men not to endeavor to fathom the mysteries of religion, but to believe in God, to believe in the immortality of the soul. He wrote nothing; He had no book in which His doctrines were written; but He taught the people by word of mouth. This is the way our blessed Lord mulgated His religion. Our faith is not derived rou s Bible, nor dependent on any written re- cord. We must trace it to its divine source. to God Himeelt made man. To trace it to any but the au- thority of Christ is to leave it open to all the mis- conceptions of which the human mind is capable. When the work of Jesus Christ on earth was com- pleted He went back to take His seat with God on the judgment throne; but the work he left was to go on until the ond of time. Christ might have chosen various methods by which to continue Has work on carth; but it is not for us to fathom the mysteries of God. These men, the apostles, who had gone about with Him on carth, who stood by Him at His death, He told to continue teaching in His name the doctrine that He had taught and to administer the sacraments that He had administered, Though they had no human qualifications for this mission they went forth, carrying their lives in their hands, and, in the face of ditticalties, preached Christ and Him erueified. In this way the religion of Jesus Christ was spread throughout the world and without a Bible. The apostles had no New Testa- ment; they preachedsthe truth as it is in Jesus and they were believed. In the middle of the fourth cen- tury the bishops of the Catholic Church met, and, collecting the various books, placed them in the bands of Christians as the Biole. The Bible nad nothing to do with the propagation of religion in the ear.y days. The Church fought its way by its own force and not Becanse its religion was embodied in an: record, Men having the authority of the Chure went into Gaul, England, Ireland, and everywhere persuaded the barbarians to kneel at the feet of jesus Christ. The whole coer whole religion of Christ, is an acting authority, Tédoes not depend for its life on any book, but has tht within which causes it to live. SURPRISED AT WORK. Officer Michael Connor, of the Sixteenth precinct. ‘was trying the doors of the stores on Ninth avenue, above Twenty-third street, yesterday morning. When he reached ‘Twenty-sixth street he no- ticed that the door of Barnard J, Campbell's wine rooms, No. 270 Ninth avenue, was partly | ajar and move’ by some invisible force at the back He rapped for assistance, but as none came was about to enter when a man who was secreted behind the door made 0 dash for liberty.

A Citizen Empties His Revolver Into a Sneak Thief’s Body. CAPTURE: OF AN ACCOMPLICE. Tragic Sequel to a Plundering Ex- pedition in Yorkville. The enterprising fraternity of sneak thieves will view with alarm the tidings of the tragic death of one of their mombera last night, who was shot in the breast and instantly killed white pilfering gentleman’s residence in Yorkville. The companion of the luckless sneak thief escaped a simi- lar fate by begging for mercy and sur- rendering unconditionally at the muzzle of a well aimederevolver. The public spirited and plucky citizen who is the hero of this signal service to the community resides at No. 305 East Eighty- sixth street. His name, which is destined to become popular, if only on the strength of this meritorious action, is John P. M. Richards, a member of the firm of John P. Moore’s Sons, dealer in fire- arms, No. 302 Brosdway. Mr. Richards in stature is below the medium size, with a keen eye, a deter- mined face and a well knit frame. He wears s well trimmed blonde mustache and dresses tastefully. He resides at No. 305 East Highty-sixth street, ina three story brick building, ith his wife and child, Last evening he was seated in the sitting room, second floor front, reading. Ho was so occupied for a considerable time when his wife suddenly exclaimed in a startled voice, “Why, what can that noise mean?” “What noise?’ queried Mr, Richards, who was absorbed in his NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, MARCH 10, 1879.—TRIPLE DEFENCE OF THE STAGE. AN ACTOR'S RESPONSE TO A CLERGYMAN—LES- SONS DERIVED FROM SHAKESPEARE—ADVICE FROM THE FOOTLIGHTS TO THE PULPIT. [BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD.] PHILADELPHIA, March 9, 1879, The Rev. Dr. Agnew, of the Presbyterian Church, recently took occasion, in one of s series of Tal- magian sermons on the temptations of city life, to denounce the stage in the most earnest and violent manner. In the good old Presbyterian way he pounded at the drama, benevo- lently called the playhouse the gate of hell, chari- tably damned the actors as the servants of Belzeebub and kindly meted out everlasting brimstone and cre- mation to all the frequenters of the theatre, Log- ivaliy, the sermon was very weak one. Had it been the utterance of # clergyman less prominent than Dr. Agnew it would have attracted no attention, especially as the reverend gentleman unintentionally upset every one of his own argu- ments by admitting at the conclusion of his diatribe that he had absolutely no personal knowledge of the theatre. Mr. Harry Meredith, s well known member of the Walnut Street’ Theatre Company, resolved to defend his profession from the aspersions of the clergyman, and this evening at Concert Hall a large audience gathered to hear what the actor would have to say. MB. MEREDITH'S ADDRESS, Mr. Meredith, after being gracefully introduced by Colonel John W. Forney and receiving an enthusi- astic welcome, delivered a very courteous but ef- fective answer to Dr. Agnew. In view of tho patience with which actors had always borne perse- cution and slander of this sort, he said substantially he might be: justified in retaliating by attacking the pulpit, but this he would not do, and would merely defend the stage from the false assertions of a clergyman who, after denouncing the followers of a noble art, had been obliged to admit that he knew nothing of the matter except what he had been told.

Cautiously he threaded his way to the head of the stairs and peered over the ‘banisters. He saw two men on the parlor floor, near the rear entrance, bundling up clothes. It was eight o’clock and the gus was burning in the entry, lighting up the premises and fully revealing the movements of the intruders. Mr. Richards’ tamiliarity with firearms and his training in the National Guard served him well in this startling SneeOer. He took in the situation with one glance and had the plan of the campaign mapped out in his mind's eyo before the unconscious sneak thieves were aware of his presence. With revolver in hand he swoopel down on them, descending half a dozen steps at every bound until he reached the lower landing. At this point of the proceedings the startled intruders realized their danger. They were in the act of packing up bundle of clothing and were in a stooping attitude near a rear closet. In their alarm they bounded to their feet, one of the men running to the front par- lor window and hiding behind the curtains. The other rushed to the rear window and made desperate efforts to escape. MM. RICHARD USES HIS REVOLVER. In doing so he kicked at the window and endeav- ored to burst his way through. In the meantime Mr. Richards fired three shots at him, the third dis- charge causing the sneak thief to turn rapidly around with a cry of pain, as if he had been hit, and face Mr, Richards. ‘The latter took deliberate aim, as hefound he was wasting his ammunition to little advantage, and at the fourth discharge shot his man through the left breast. The sneak thief fell to the floor, ut- staff and the ibspent days and worthless nights of Prince Hal; but when we close the volume, while we are thoroughly diagusted with Fat Jack's vulgarity and hutony, do we not glow with admiration for Prince ary, who possessed a soul above beer and wenches, and finally mounted his father’s throne every inch a king? Icould go from the beginning to the end of Shakespeare, point out new beauties, noble thoughts and lessons upon every page, and show that where he paints vice he does it in a way that cannot fail, if we think as we read, to make us better husbands, fathers, sons. THE STORY OF MACBETH. ‘The story of the temptation and fall of the valiant Scotchman who received his king with open arms and then butchered him while yet his kiss was warm upon the royal hand, is pregnant with instructive power. What shivering wretch in the dark corner of the theatre who meditates a crime is not lashed with fear and sent into the open air, his hand stayed from his bloody purpose by the agonized words torn from Macbeth's sot “Wake! wake! Duncan, with thy knocking. Ah! would thou couldst.” Have we no sermon to find in the piteous grief and remorse of Lady Macbeth, with her shivering frame and the ceaseless wringing of those white hands, from which all Arabia’s perfumes could not drive the stench of Duncan's blood? Can we witness without benetit the horrible remorse of Claudius, King of Denmark, when, with heart riven in twain and his brain on fire, he cries:—“Oh, my offence is ran! Yet we are informed that the world’s poet excuses the lack of virtue in men and women and glories in vice and debauchery. A little knowledge is a danger- ous thing.

I am not armed; I'll go with you!” Then hold your arms over your head,” retorted Mr. Richards, “until I satiscy myself that you are not armed.” The demand was instantly complied with, the craven sneak thief being t! il tor the re- da: clamor for novelty? Ia there ‘no. lesson to be gained trom the career of the hunchbacked tyrant ? Would it be amiss in a clergyman to ask his hearers to follow Richard through his murders and all his crimes for the glorification of s false ambition to his last battle field and there behold the Dbloodstained crown Could he not contrast such @ carcer with that of the young wince before whose sword the monster fell?

What a sermon on justice attracted by the discharge of the revolver, appeared atthe door, The first object that met their gaze was the body of the dead burglar cae at full length in the hallway. Mr. Richards and thecaptive sneak thict were at the moment in the parlor and wero concealed from the officer's view. These officials concluded that a scries of domestic bloody tragedies: had taken place and they halted for 4 second on the doorstep, irresolute how to proceed to make certain of capturing the guilty party. It was tacitly under- stood that one of the officers should explore the inte- rior of the dwelling while the other should stand guard at the door to prevent in that direction. At this juncture voices im the parlor attracted their attention, and there they found Mr. Richards still holding firmly grasped in his right hand his smoking revolver, and in the other thre cowering sneak thief was held firmly pressed by the thr Mr. Richards in a few com- wrehensive sentences cxplained the situation and the five captive was at once taken into custody by the representatives of the law. CARRYING OFF THE DEAD, One of the officer's conveyed the intelligence of the shooting to Captain Robbins, aud the latter at once proceeded to the scene of the tragedy in company of @ squad of his men carrying a stretcher. The body of the sneak thief was conveyed to the station house and his companion, after his pedigree being taken, was remanded tu acell, The latter gave his name as Denis Dargon, and his residence at No. 1,334 Third avenue. He caid he was a bricklayer by occupation. In appearance he is not ill-fayored, and was in a becoming manner. He said he was twenty-four years of age, When an officer was con- ducting him to acell, he turned to Captain Robbins and exclaimed with an oath, ‘If I only had a pistol at the time, I would have shot that dam: fel- low,” meaning Mr. Richards. When told of the death of his companion he expressed his incredulity and said that Captain Robbins wanted to “give him astecr.” Ho was assured of the reality of the in- formation, but still remained incredulous, The name of the deceased sneak thief is Timothy Casey. He was twenty-four years of age and lived with a could be formed from an analysis of this beautiful thought: Whatan incentive to man to show how Richmond felt that his oe squadrons were trebled in numbers, because hif fight was the strag- gle of virtue to overthrow unparalleled vico!

After defending the stage against the charge of im- morality, saying that actors and actresses are neither worse nor better than otner men and women, and drawing a picture of the good effect of a _ play well played, the lecturer appealed to clergy to deliver all in charity, and instead of trying to destroy the theatre, which they cannot do, to try and reform it if it needs reforma- tion. Bring actors to your churches, said he, and send your congregations to the theatre. Go your- selves, reverend gentlemen, and give publicity to what you see there. Condemn the unwhole- some, praise the good, ally the Church with the ‘theatre and help us to make men and women better. Gentiemen of the pulpit let the #stuge alone. If you are not willing to help us reform it when it needs it, you will only burn your Singers by denouncing us without reason, besides sending your congregation to buy reserved seats, Show the actor the bright side of religion. Tell him his faults. He in return will try and convince you how abhorrent to manliness are cant and hypocrisy. Learn the art of pleasing in the pulpit as the actor pleases on the stage, and over your church doors carve the word “As much as lieth in you live peaceably with all men.” SHIPPING NEWS OCEAN STEAMERS. his mother at Ninoty-third street, between Second and Third avenues.
