NEW YORK,

The Walking Match-Great Excitement Among the MetropoIitans-The Start ina the Great Race-Promise of a Lively 1 Contest.
 | NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-The excitement in
 this city over the six days pedestrian contest at 1 Madison Square Garden almost reached fever
 heat to- day, and from an early hour crowds of 1 loungers were to be seen around the build l ing. By o'clock it was estimated that at least two thousand were waiting for the doors to open. The arrangements in the building for the comfort of the spectators and con- | testants are the most complete of any con- test that has ever taken place. The garden is illuminated by thirty electric lights and
 decorated with the flags and banners of all nations. Music throughout the week will be furnished by Gilmore's band. The track, which is claimed by the management to be the best ever laid, is encircled by picket fence four feet high and set back two feet from the track During the contest no one except the contestants, trainers and judges will be allowed on the track. The starters are Rowel, Vint, Panchot, Sullivan, Nore- mac, Hughes, Fitzgerald, Hazael and Scott. All the men except Vint and Sullivan are re- ported CO De ln the pest condition. ROWeu is the favorite in the betting at 1 to 2. Fitz- gerald and Sullivan are about equal favorites at to 1. An hour after opening the doors six thousand persons were in the building and hundreds were still waiting for admis- sion. Among the audience were many ladies. At II o'clock fully ten thousand people were in the building. During the evening a meeting of the contestants was held and Frank Hart was admitted to the race, making ten contestants. Promptly at 12 o'clock the contestants came out of their cabins and were loudly applauded by their admirers. Powell, who has become a general favorite, re- ceived quite an ovation. At 12:05 the word ''Go'' was given and all the contestants bounded off at an eight mile an hour gait. Hughes led on the first lap and finished the first mile in six minutes, Noremac second, Rowell third. In the first hour Hughes made 8 miles and 6 laps, Rowell miles 3 laps, .Sul- livan miles 5 laps, Hazael 8 miles laps, Vint miles laps Scott miles lap, Nore- mac miles laps, Panchot miles laps,
 Hart miles laps, Fitzgerald miles laps.
 Just before the start the bookmakers offered odds as follows: Powell, ? to 1 to win,
 against Fitzgerald to 1, against Noremac 6
 to l, against Hughes 12 to 1, Vint 25 to 1,
 Hazael to 1, Sullivan to 1, Hart 7 to 1. Score at 1:3O a. m.: Rowell 12 miles laps,
 Sullivan II miles 3 laps, Hazael 12 miles f
 laps, Vint Il miles 8 laps, Scott Il miles 7
 laps, Hughes 13 miles, Noremac 12' miles

NEW DOMINION.
His Divorced Wife's Fortune.

MONTREAL, Feb. 26.-Judge Torrance yes- terday in the Superior Court decided cele- brated case, in which were involved the validity in Canada of New York divorce and also the ownership of over $2OO, OOO Miss Stephen, the daughter of a rich south ern contractor, was married to Montreal merchant named James Fisk some years ago in the city of New York. The couple came to Montreal and resided here, Fisk being made executor of his wife's fortune. After @ time Fisk had reason to suspect inconsistency on the part of his wife, and after certain amount of scandal had been talked in high circles the pair separated, the wife returning to New York. A dive1ce was obtained by mutual consent, and nothing more was heard of the ex-wife until three or four weeks ago, when she came into court and asked that Fisk should be made to account for the ad- ministration of the fortune from the time of his executorship until the present, or pay something more thau $200,000. Judge Tor rance decided that the divorce must be held to be valid, and that the defendant must ac- cede to the prayer of the petitioner. The judgment has taken the defendants friends by surprise.

 "Nhat commotion there would be" says the COqgreg0tt0ndlSSt, Eff churches should in vite laymen to resign when they lose their drawing power in the prayer meeting But the laymen must draw in the prayer meet ing, as they insist that the pastor shall in the pulpit. How much though do you give to making what you say in this meeting attrac- tive ?' No matter how much thought the layman gives to what he is to Say in the prayer meeting, the minister is the engineer, and if he does not supply the ste am the lay man will not go, unless he IS some genius who goes by some other than the usual mo- tive power The defect is less common than it used to be, but it is still to be found here and there that a layman who might draw" is completely unharnessed by the minister. The writer has visited a prayer meeting in this city, where the minister, who did not appear to be more than half awake, opened the meeting with five-stanza hymn in long meter, then read one of the longest chapters in the epistle to the Romans then gave out another long hymn, then made long prayer, in which he rambled all over creation, then gave put one more long hymn and then said |: ''The meeting is open, brethren, please let the time be fully occupied" There was no subject for thought and no attempt to open one. One brother prayed, another said a few words very indifferently from his seat and sister repeated verse of Scripture. Then there was pause, after which the min ister occupied the time," and everybody gave a sigh of relief when the hour was up and the duty of having attended prayer meeting was fulfilled There is no earthly good in such ceremony, and any brother accustomed to ''draw' would have been frozen out or bottled up by the evident in difference of the minister in the perfume tory discharge of what he considered to be his duty. A pastor who has not the faculty to run prayer meeting'' in a way to give the layman chance to ''drawn may preach ever so brilliantly and keep his pews full, but he cannot expect his church to grow. Lay men will do the work in the prayer meeting if they have chance, or are rightly led up to the work, and the pastor who has the happy faculty, or has acquired the science of being suggestive and inspiring, and attacks his work with any sort of ''gumption," will not complain of the dullness of his lay breth- ren.

THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.

Dorsey@s Connection with the National Committee-A General Desire for His Resignation - The Garfield EuIogy- Other Matters.
 WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-Now that ex-Sena- tor Dorsey has been criminally indicted a good many Republican Congressman are an- noyed that he persists in retaining his posi- ton as secretary of the Republican National committee. It is thought that the members and officers of the National committee should belong to the undetected part of the commu- nifty, and it has been suggested that at the next meeting of the committee it would be well to adopt a rule that any one of the mem bers hereafter indicted for criminal offenses, such as Star route robberies, shall thereby cease to be asmember of the committee. A question now discussed is whether MT. Dorsey will resign or whether he will merely s'fix 8 stain on the glorious old party" by holding on to his secretaryship.
 Congressman Allen, of Missouri who has been very low, is much improved. General Hancock will be among the invit- ed guests at the Garfield eulogy at the Capi- tol tomorrow. It is estimated that Blaine I will have an audience of about 2, 500 persons. Neither house will transact any business ex- cept that connected with the eulogy. It is definitely stated that Secretary Kirk ! wood is to remain in the Cabinet perma- nently.
 The Congressional Temperance society held
 it's forty-eighth anniversary this evening at ! the Metropolitan Presbyterian church. Hon.
 x.Justice Strong presided and made an opening address, followed by Q statement l from the secretary, Rev. Dr. Chickering, and remarks from ex-Gevernor Dingley of Maine, A. Norcross of Massachusetts, J. l.. I Updegraff of Ohio, S. H. Miller of Pennsyl- vania and others. The attendance was large.
 In the House yesterday objection was made \ to taking up the bill placing General Grant | on the retired list of the army, and a resolu- tion was adopted for the appointment of a ! select committee of nine members to whom shall be referred all petitions, bills and reso-
 lutions asking for the extension of suffrage to women, as a removal of their legal disa- I bilities. After this the House went into
 Committee of the Whole and spent the re-
 mainder of the day in consideration of the
 postofice appropriation bill.

Oscar Wilde Interrupted.

ST LOUIS, Feb. 26.-Oscar Wilde was greeted at Mercantile Library Hall last night by an audience that tested it's holding capaci- ty. He was not interrupted until he had proceeded about fifteen minutes, when a crowd of young fellows who had possession of row of back seats began noisy applause and kept it up for some minutes, drowning the voice of the speaker, and only stopped when the rest of the audience bissed. The disorderly applause broke out again in a few minutes and was kept up at varying inter vals during the lecture, though not in a vio- lent manner. The lecturer was not in the least disconcerted, but talked without pause until he got through. There were no police on hand to maintain quiet.
