An Intellectual Treat,-Tbe lecture

An Intellectual Treat.-The lecture
delivered by Rev. Frederick d. Power, ex.
Chaplain of the House Of Representatives, al
the Town Hall, on Tuesday evening last,
on the "Christian Life and Character of the
late President James A. Garfield" was a
literary treat of genuine merit. Mr.. Power
is well and favorably known in this COM
munity as an eloquent and graceful pulpit
orator, and as a lecturer he has more tn an
sustained the most fattering expectations.
He handled his subject with an ease fiuen-
cy and beauty born of true eloque nce--an
artistic naturalness that left more the i'm
preston of clearly defined panorama pass i
ing before our eyes than mere words ap-
pealing to our ears. At description he is
rarely gifted, whilst his power OF word
painting is exceedingly fine. We will not
dwell upon the beauties Of his diction, the
splendor and the number Of the rhetorical
figures in which his discourse abounds. Its
exquisite harmony and rythm show it to
have been subject of profound study, and
like some finished drama nowhere could It
be altered without marring its beauty. His
description of an old time mothers prayer,
mot one Of your enameled society mothers"
was strikingly pathetic and beautiful, and
must have found its way to the soft cornor of
every heart that beat under his voice AL.
though the delivery of the lecture occupied
an hour and thirty-five minutes, we never
witnessed more breathless attention on the
part of any audience.
MIR. Power was introduced to the audi
ence by Associate Justice Harlan, of the
Supreme Court of the United States, in

Disorders were renewed in Paris Tuesday
morning. Fully 1000 persons assembled in

The ConAision Of tho Col0red People Of
the south.

Judge Thurman spoke at Toledo, Ohio, last
night at q mass-meeting. and devoted his ad-
dress to replying to Senator Sherman In refer
encc TO the suffrage. rights and condition OF the
colored people In the south. Judge Thurman
claimed that the colored people OF the south were
I'm the enjoyment of greater prosperity and
greater civil rights than were ever enjoyed on
this globe by an equal number of their race.
He dated the prosperity of that section from
1870, when the democrats came into control
and radical rule and carpet-bag government
ceased. At the end of ten years 1t can be safely
affirmed that there Is not an industry in the
south but is more prosperous than ft ever was
in that rAgion before, until now they have, in
many lines OF manufacture, become the
rivals of the mills of the eastern states.
All this. IL was argued, proves that they
were not discontinued, nor murdered, nor de-
prived of their rights, * depicted by senator
Sherman and other republican orators. The
c,lored man seemed TO prefer living with the
white men of the South. even though they be
democrats, To dwelling in the tents of the radi-
Gals, even though they be saints II was ar
gued that al those things could not be so IL the
wretchedncSs which has been so often asserted.
Judge Thurman denied The assumption OF Sem
ator Sherman, shat all tho colored voters of the
SOuth are republicans and would vote that
ticket if not terrorized. He said: "If ii were
true, il would be a serious question whether
people 50 Servile and cowardly are tit to eXer-
else the elective franchise. But, tor one, do
not believe that they are so utterly debased.
j believe that, having good reason for not
voting the republican ticket, they abstain from
doing so i'm great numbers or vote the demo
cratic ticket"

mand that twelve hours should constitute q

oI bootaii cars should receive the same as con-
Uiictors. This, the executive committee allege

division q list OF rates TO govern the wages to be

manufacturers and the strike followed on Mon
day by order OF the union.

No Bridesmaids, Only q ''Best Girl.''

rAoAu suc IAti6ucipula INOTtu American.
Eight hundred invitations have been issued
for the wedding OF Miss Sophy Brown and Mr.
w. w. Sherman, which is to take place at the
house of the brides father, in Newport, on Wed
nesday. There are to be no bridesmaids, only
q "best girl" In which capacity Miss Van Rens-
seiaer Is to Officiate. Mr.. Sherman is not even
to have best man. Whatthe duties, functions
or privileges OF u "best girl may be the world
has yet to discover. On Wednesday they will
be enlightened. Perhaps She is expected to
Supersede the best man and assume his duties
to hold the bridegroom hat during the cere-
mony, hand the clergyman his tee, superintend
the arrangements at the church and look after
the luggage and the provision of rice and old
slippers when the bridal pair depart. II she is
first bridesmaid, by holding the brides bouquet
and lace handkerchief, why should the new
and undignified appellation of "best girl be
given 10 her? Since women have taken to
smoking, hunting, four finland and tandem
driving, rifle shooting, poker playing and stock
specializing. man has little or nothing left
that Is distinctively his own. Even in name
the ladies desire to approach as nearly as pos
sible to the masculine standard.

London, says a cable special, Is agog with a
new sensation, in which the elements Of TO.
nance and scandal are painfully mixed. A
handsome young assistant in Dublin dry
goods shop eIoped with Miss Wilson, whose
acquaintance he had made during her shop
ping visits. Miss w ilson was also young and
handsome, and she was, moreover. an heiress
and a ward in chancery. Her father is still
living, and he became terribly enraged when
he learned of the elopement. He chased the
fugitives over half of England, and finally
overlook them and caused their arrest, while
they were on their way to Scotland TO be
arraigned at the Bow street Police
court i'm having sought to marry a ward in
chancery without the sanction Of the Lord
High Chancellor. There was also a charge of
fraudulent representations, and the girls father
swoTc that kavanagh had assumed airs of great
Importance and talked as though he were q
Sroesus, although when he eioped he was penni-
less ana without work or prospects, and the
girl whom he stole had to defray even the ex-
penses OF the flight. The expectant bridegroom
had been allowed it probably would not have
been obtained.
Just before the examination Kavanagh told
his side OF the story. He said that his arrest had
alone prevented his marrying Miss Wilson,
and that what he most deplored was the fact
mat mat whiie they were on their way to Scotland
they had assumed the relations of husband and
wife without waiting for the ceremony. He said
he had not been aware that the young lady was
ward in chancery: that he was sincerely
anxious to marry her, and would do SO at the
moment If the lord high chancellor would
give his permission. He admitted that
be was poor, but said he was willing
10 work like n slave for his wife, and did
not want a shilling of her money. Miss
Mnson' who was seen subsequently,. seemed
oroken-hearted. She said that there could be
no objection to kavanagh, except that he was
poor, and she tearfully declared that she would
die unless they were reunited. Much sympathy
is expressed for the youngsters, and it Is be-
llexed that the lord high chancellor will not be
gulIe RELENTLESS. He will probably imprison
kavanagh for a couple of months ana then
allow him to marry Miss Wilson, but taking
care TO Keep her money SO that she alone can
control il,

Where the Pink Swan Elwells.

New oTi.-tu- Times democrat.
Pink cheeks, by the way, are no longer fash
ionable in the home OF rosy faces. English bellies
must now be pallid. Ii, as the poet en- treats we
must call ii fair not pale, still the interesting
fact remains. red cheeks are considered vulgar
and young man or woman from the British
Isles is insnlied when you speak of peachy
bloom, and the English complexion" This
vagary of fashion will probably create Juror in
America, where color on the cheeks of young
girls l. ala evaneScent as the flush upon q sun

Only effect it can have will be to induce our
nlaidens To use J'anc dc perle instead of the
deret de cygnc. now so popular. Why "a pink
powder should be called swans down" is
another of HES many mysteries. We have all
seen white swans, and walked to the furtherest
extremity OF the 100 TO find black swans. The
singing swan is a poetical fable that we would
fain cherish: But pink swan is indeed a
