The stoddard Lectures.

A short kGnswal of these sterling entsrtain- ments will be given on Saturday next at Carll's Opera House, when matinee and an evening lecture will be given. ':Paris'' is the scene of the matinee, and is happy choice, this being proved to be one of Mr. Ssoddsrd's most charming presentations, enjoyable by all and especially valuable for the young for its historic features. The especial attTac- tion, however, is to be the Passion Play' lecture, first given in 1880 and since repeated in every large city before crowded houses. This has justly been considered Elr. Stod- dard's chief discourse, and as such has es- sembled his most enormous houses every- where. It is an apprecistive description for a SErSnge drama which has existed in some form evey since the middle ages Through especial opportunities Mr. stoddard was ena- bled to become acquainted with the actors in Eheir homes at Obsr,Amnergau, and to get their portraits and photographs of the scenes. This lecture is to be given on Saturday eyen- gna and 2 large attendance may be predicted.

Calvary Church.

 A specially Ffne Eaater Floral Display
 La-ge COngreg gattons-sernO By Rev.
 NIT. Samson.
 The Easter services at Calvary Baptist church yesterday were specially notable in the history of this place of worship. Very large congregations attended both morning
 and evening An hour before the opening
 of the evening service over one hundred
 people were seated in anticipation that at
 later hour there would be no room, and the
 church was soon filled to overdowing, and
 over five hundred people were turned away.
 At the morning service the pastor, Rev Mir.
 Samson, preached from the words. Luke xi-
 3O ssFor as JonaP was 6 sign with the
 Ninevitss, so shall also the son of man be to
 this generation The subject of the dis-
 course was stChrist's Resurrection as 8
 Sign. It was not without reason that men
 demanded proof of the authenticity of
 Christ's mission. But his death and resur- rection are arguments to convince as of his divinity They are the strongest appeal
 that can be made to man. Seek not more proof, for more is needless, take 1t to your hearts. The discourse was beautifully ap- propriate to the day and occasion so dear 10 GQ0 OnElStl6u WOEAu LIB AANSA0 "No as usual excellent, The Te Deum in 0

 At the evening service the pastor preached from 1st Corinthians, 18th chapter, 57th verse, s"Ihanks be to God who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ very interesting praise service was rendered, for winch there were printed programmes. The floral display at Calvary was very beau tiful and appropriate for the day. On the communion table was an elegant cross of flowers composed of calla lilies, camelias, carnation roses, violets and sn1ilax resting on base of green. On the platform each side was profusion of pot plants, choice varie- ] ty, from the center of which on one side was an anchor of white lilies and other flowers resting on base of pansies, on the other side was Tyre of flowers of brilliant colors, camelies azalsRs, etc. The baptistery was filled with ferns, pots of primroses, callas, and other plants From the middle of the choir gallery hung superb star of pink aza- leas, in the center of which was white dove. On either side hung silk banners with the words "For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead;" ''Seareh the scriptures" ''Sing unto the Lord;" "Now is Christ risen from the dead and become the first fruits of them that slept" The fragrance of the flowers filled the church. The arrangement was under the direction of MT. H. J. Augur, to whom great credit is due.

A Young Mans Singular EItshnp.
 4 young man residing on Humphrey street in this city was recently the victim of a singular accident He was reused from sleep at about o'clock in the morning by severe pain in the shoulders. The pain grew worse and his arm appeared to bs use- less. He summoned the folks iu the house to the rescue, and they seeing that the arm appeared to be disIocated tried to pull it into place, but they only aggravated the matter. Finally surgeon was summoned who put the arm into place. It had been dislocated by the owner in bis sleep. Whether the young man had been eating ham sandwiches and thereby caused fright fnl dreams which caused him to execute some wild noctural gymnastic practice, or whether he was fighting some imaginary enemy has not been reported, but it appears he threw his arm above his head and in that way the head of the humerus bone was thrown into the axilla Epace-iu other words the arm was dislocated,
