The W. C. T. U. Members Do Not Approve of the Appearance of Little Children. OARLAND OFFICE SAN FrANCISCO CALL,) 98 Brondwey, July 30. | CUonsiderable discussion has arisen over the propriety of perm tting dancing at by young children. The County Women’s Christian Temperance Union held a meeting to-day and Di- rectors Bell and Sharp appeared before them and stated that on several evenings the entertainments had been turned over to private parties or organizations and aside from a stipulation that they should not be objectionable the directors had not anything to do with getting them up. In the future it was probable that a difterent plan would be pursued and there would be no cau e for any one to take exgeption to the exhibitions. Professor Aker conducted ing that was unfavorably criticized. “} am astonished that uny one should have taken offens: acthe dancing,’ he said, “‘or that the ladies should pass such a resolution. 1 velieve that there was nothing in the exhibilion which would offend the most rastidious person of a beaithy mind. The dances that I pro- duced on the stage are those taught by the teading professors of the country, such as Professor Dare of New York O B. Grant oi Baffalo, V. I. Nott of Cincin- nati and others. I am myself a member of the American Natioual Dancing Asso- ciation, which is the (eading society in this country, and introduces ull the new society, fancy and exhibition dances. I have pupils from sume of the best fami- lies in Oakiand, and I gve my instruc- tions with their approval, “T e children who participated were from 6 to 14 y-ars of age, They wore the usual fancy-diess costumes, such a3 are worn at fancy-dress, or children’s parties. Their mothers and friends gave them ap- proval and were pleased at t::e exhibition. l must say that the ladies of the Woman’s Christian” Temperance Union could not have seen the children or they would not bave criticized as they did as a result. I shall immediately make arrangements to hire the exposition building and give the exhibiiion again, and invite them and the pubiic to see for themseives il 1tis pot in every way a proper and pleasing exunibi- tion.” Director Trowbridge, who is chairman of the enteriainment committes of the exposition, savs he has no apologies 10 offer for the daucing. *‘The dances were the usual fancy dances, similar 1o those given last year, about which no criticism was passed,” said Mr. Trowbridge to- night. “Every one seemed to be delighted and there was nothing in the dancing, it seemed to me, to which any right-minded person could take exception, I think the action of the ladies of the W.

E. Convention. All the Leading Churches Are| Now Engaged in Friendly Competition, Directors Rea, Stewart and McCoy Each Striving to Have a Per- fect Organization. OAKLAND OFrice SaN FrANoIsco CALL,} 908 Broad way, July 30. The success of the First Congregational Sunday-school orchestra at the Christian Endeavor convention and the prospect that it may go to Nathville next year has aroused great interest all over the State, and its managers are receiving many communications from churches as to how it was organized and how it is sustained. Dozens cf churches are now anxious to have a Sunday-school orchestra. Already two have been organized in this city since the convention, and it was also at the First Congregational Church that the first musical institution of the kind was started. Rev. John Res, serving as associate to Rev. J. K. McLean, then pastor of the First Congregational Church, made the first effort in this line. He secured a cor- netist and for several weeks this instru- ment led in the singing of the Sunday- school. Then came a flute, and later the violin. The latter was not fully indorsed by the older membors for a little time, but they finally gave in. Then came the fully equipped orchestra. It was a small one, but it grew, and soon the first concert was given. Then its name spread, and the other churches took up the idea. The First Baptist organized one of twenty pieces when the origi- nal one had begun to turn away appli- cants. The First M. E. followed their example. The Baptists only kept up their work one year, but the Methedist orchestra is still in existence. The name of the original orchestra spread all over the State. Alex T. Stew- art was selected as its leader, and the Christian Endeavorers took them to Santa Rosa in 1892. In 1893 they visited Fresno, where they were given an ovation. Sacramento was visited in 1895and San Jose last year, and Pacific Grove later. Last fall Mr. Stewart resigned and went East to study music; William J. McCoy was chosen to succeed him, and this year thousands applauded them in Mechanics’ Pavilion. It is intimated now that they may go to Nashvilie in 1893 Mr. Rea recentiy returned and took a position in the First Presbyterian Chureh, and at once organized an orchestra in the Sunday-school. This has been growing stea: iiy and promises to be a competitor of its organizer's original work. C. F. Crist has charge of this work during Mr. Rea’s vacation. Alexander Stewart has now been en- eaged to conduct the First M. E. Sunday- | schoo! orchestra. He has some good ma- | terial and will draw from all parts ot the | City. Dr. Dille is expected to return soon, and, as he declared at Pacific Grove las year that the church of the day must a:- tract the outsiders in order to reach them, ne will undoubtedly give the oichestra a place in his evening services (o secure an audience. % The Unitarian church bas supported an | excallent orchestra for several years under | the direction of Liewellyn Huzhes. Itis| | Since the disbandment of the Baptist | two years ago there has been considerable discuseion as to its benefits. They declare that their attendance was larger and their Sunday-school better while it was in exisi- ence. OCbarles F. Baker, their superin- tendent, favors replacing it, ana at no very d nt day it will probahiy be accomp!ished. They have as proficient musiciuns there as any of the Sunday- scuoa's. The young people of all the denominations are well pleased with the orchestras and every one seems eager to play in tome ore of them. Pacific Parior’s New Officers. Lasy Tuesday evening the new officers of Pacific Parlor of the Native Sons of the Golden West extended an invitation to the memovers of the parlor and to those of Niantic Parlor to join them fn a social hour at an Eddy-street cafs, where a banquet had been prevared.
