During Lent st. Johns church is usually
crowded at every service. In tho present
Lenten season there are services at $3.50 a. m.
and p. M, and shortly before these hours an
observer might see long lines of the faithful
land the fashionable) vending their way to-
ward the corner of Sixteenth and II streets
northwest At the services yesterday after
noon there was particularly large congrega-
tion present to hear Bishop J. A. Paddock, of
Washington territory, n brother of Bishop
Paddock, of Boston, The reverend speaker
paid his attention entirely to missionary work
in the west. He especially spoke Of the need
of establishing church schools in the west,
whereby the youth of that section might be
drawn into virtuous paths instead of being
left at the mercy of the vicious society partly
existent there. Bishop Paddock said that n
Philadelphia gentleman had offered $4,000 to
endow girls school in Washington territory
providing the bishop raised $4,000. He said
he had already secured $4,000, and expected
to raise the remaining amount shortly. To-
morrow afternoon DIR. Randolph, of Baltimore,
will deliver the sermon.

LONGFELLOw'S NEW PSALM OF
LIFE.
BY sAMuEL ApAMs w1oorN.

Upon his weary couch ofpalu
The dying poet lay,
And backward turned loving look
Unto his boyhood's day
When lie was opening fair and bright
And full ofpromise rare,
When hope, and fame, and wealth, and Joy,
Were all before him there;
A blue eyed youth with sunny hair,
A rosy laughing lad
With heart unspotted from the world,
All tender, warm and glad
Aud now with fame and honor crowned,
His mission nobly done,
He waits the opening Of the gate
That hides orr Fathers throne.
smile is ON his gentle face,
A halo round his head
The angel Of the covenant
Beside the poets 9d.
He hears voice we cannot hear,
He sees heavenly face,
Aud feels the pressure Of his hand,
The angel OF Gods grace.
lie heard the golden bells of heaven
Ginning hymn Of praise.
And, listening, heard the seraphs sing
A psalm Of endless days;
Aud so peace inefable
Shines in his tender eyes,
And on his brow glorious light
The beauty Of the skies.
Farewell-there is no death, he cries,
But life forever more,
/ see the loved and lost OF earth
Upon the other shore.
They wait for me with eager Joy,
And outstretchod hands of love,
The welcome Home" they're singing now
10 rest and peace above.
And so with eyes still fixed on heaven,
And smiles upon his lips,
The angel touched that godlike brow
With loving finger tips,
And laid upon his mighty breast
The poets sacred head,
While softly fell the peace OF heaven
About that dying bed
gentle heart that ever spoke
Sweet words of comfort rare
o fair white soul Of life and love
That lives forever thcre
We miss thy well beloved face,
We miss thy pleasant voice,
Aud yet thy new sweet psalm Of life
Bids every heart rejoice;
Because Mt heavens open gate
Some day Wen iud him there
In spOtlcss robe and fideless crown,
With palms and haoed hair.

Polo at Baltimore.

The Washin gton Polo club, under the d.
rcction of Mr.. s, A. Curtis of the skating rink
in this city, visited Baltimore last night to
play game of polo at the skating rink in that
city with the Baltimore club. The exhibition
was a fine one, and the game stoutly contested.
The playing of the home club was skillful and
careful at every point, but they were out
matched completely by the Washington club,
whose fine playing was highly applauded by
the spectators After an exciting contest the
Washington club won by score of one to
nothing,

To shave or not to shave is a ques-
ton which oft makes men pause.
Sometimes it is a question Of the hour
aud opportunity, oftener of being bored
almost to the point when one feels like
making his quietus with Tue point of a
bare bodkin, and now and then of fore
going a fayorite matutinal beverage,
or walking down town or putting in an
appearance at your desk with a two
days growth Of a stubby beard.
Exactly when or where men began
10 shave themselves is a matter which
modern research has as yet failed 20 de
termjne. Certainly the habit is q pro-
duet Of civilization aud the alleged i'm
proving conditions Of mankind. 1t is
not probable that the primeyal man
scraped his chin. lie lived before the
age OF iron, and, tough customer that
he was, it is reasonable to infer that he
would not haND tortured his cutiele
with a clam she'll or a piece of sharp
sandstone to rid him of the growth
with which a beneacent God bad proyi
ded him as a mantle and protection
alike against ths heats of summer aud
the colds of winter. The fatLefs of
Israel did not shave to a verify. There
is not an illustrated copy of the Bible
IN existence which does not represent
Abraham except with a long and fow-.
ing beard, and from some of the litho-
graph representations of the Garden %

There are a good many young men
in this vicinity who might obey Hor-
ace Greely and go west. One young
mau from Oldmans Township has taken
up with the homestead advantages and
has settled on 100 acres of good lard.
He has two horses, two cows, several
hogs and in a little while will own a
good farm with buildings. Others
have settled around him and the out
look for the future is very propitious.
BY the term of the Homestead law any
person who is a citizen of the United
States or has declared his intention to
become such, may secure one hundred
and sixty acres of the public domain
without cost. To take advantage of
this law he must select his land and
learn the correct description of it. This
he can do through some one neal by
who is aCqu tinted with the country.
lie must then go to the land office OF
the district in which the land lies and
file his application for the same. In
this application lie must declare that
he desires the land for his W exclu-
siye use and benefit, and for the pun
pose of actual settlement and cultiya-
ton. The land Office fee for this fill
ing is ten dollars. This filing will pro.
tect him in possession so long as he re-
mains upon The land. lie cannot sci
it and if he abandons it tie title re-
verts to the United States. If he re-
mains upon the land five years however
he receives a perfect title and the land
becomes his property. A woman can
take land Under this law as well as a
man. Any oma who is unmarried
or who is the head of a family cal take
Il homestead, but a man and his wife
cannot both take one. A man should
decide OH his location as nearly as PES
Sible before he starts. Going about
the country is expensive. He should
at least decide what State and what
part of a state he will strike for. Ii
possible go where some friend has gol e
before. Let him learn all he can
about the region. 50 that he may go AT
once to the locality he expects to set
tie in.

Mad house Lorrors have been frequent.

The latest scheme for the relief of
the col0red people Of the Southern
Sta es is a project to colonize a strip
of public land west Of Il e Indi n Ter
ritory, bounded on the south 10y Texas
and 10y Colorado and Kansas on the
north. The new organization has its
headquarters in Arkansas and is said
to have a membership of 1900. The
idea is to send a small colony of col
ored families at first, every emigrant
to be supported for a time by three
members of the association who stay
at home. 1t is proposed to slow
ly and so avoid such failure rs over
came the exodus movement in 1859.
An agent of the organization is now in
Washington in order to arouse public
sympathy and interest in the project.
The result of his efforts VIII be watch
ed with great interest by all who have
the welfare of the colored race at heart.
