Dedication or Grucr Ch,,,c,.

Grace Congregational church was formally
dedicated last evening. At 6 O'Clock the
Congregational club OF Minnesota, which
came over from St. Paul. Minneapolis and
other points in body, were entertained by
the congregation at an excellent supper
while many of the residents of the city also
participated In the excellent spread. The
club afterwards proceeded to business, and
elected their officers for the next year.
At 7:45 the church choir having sung an
anthem. the keys of the new church were re-
ceived from the chairman of the building
committee and given to the president of the
board and trustees, and by him banded to
DIR. Hutchinson, to take charge of during
the dedicatory services. Among others who
were present and took part in the dedicatory
services were: Reverends Dana. Montgom-
cry, Williams, (Minneapolis) Williams,
(Northfeld) Morley, Wocott, Newton, Rog-
ers, and others, and of the city clergymen.
Reverends Dunn, Cheney and Carlson. The
services were most impressive, and the large
audience watched each step with interest.
The Rev. George 8. Kicker was also inducted
as pastor. AS the dedication took place at
such late hour last evening we are unable
to get full account, but arrangements are
made to give full particulars.

Railroads and the Coal Companies.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.

New YORK, Jan. 26.-The Egeaing Post
says the general situation in railroad affairs
and in the stock market remained practi
cally unchanged this morning from that of
Saturday. There was still some prospect
that the trunk lines between Chicago and
the seaboard viii get into a general war
on both freight and passenger business and
there will be some doubt as to whether
the Coal company will, at their meeting to-day
from a combination independent Of Penn
sylvania, which certainly will not join them
to restrict the output of coal this year. The
latter question. though in fact Of much less
i'm portance than the one in regard TO trunk
lines, was given most consideration this
morning. and the reports that there was no
hope for an agreement Of the coal companies
were made an excuse for an at
tack on coal stocks. The interest
in speculative circles is centered very
largely in coal stocks and rests 10 the meet
ing of the managers OF coal companies, in
reference TO forming a new combination,
yhich is now In session. IL is rumored that
Reading will not become a party to any
agreement that does include Pennsyl-
yania, aud upon this report both Lacka-
wanna and other coal stocks have been sold.
The rest OF the market holds remarkably
strong, especially when the uncertainty
regarding the coal situation is taken into
consideration. The trunk line securities are
firm. We arc advised that some OF the lines
could use more cars at western points than
they have on hand at principal shipping CEN
tiers, and also that the falling of in east bound
shipments last week OF about 5000 tons was
due TO the unfavorabe weat her.

The General offhe Arpmu
Wah 'gt)u L,te.b

saw the General Of the Army, P. II Sher-
idau, come into the Ebbitt House the other
evening to make a call. He stopped mo-
ment in the rotunda to talk to some friends.
A group OF military officers Immediately
gathered about him. A stranger would never
have selected him as their COMMANDMENTS
Chief. A more unmiiitary-lookng man
never lived In civilians dress. He needs
his uniform. Most of the officers about him
we're in civilians dress, also, but there was
hardly Que of them who did not wear some
outward sign of his military character.
Sheridan Is very short and each year seems
to add TO the rotundity of his pudgy figure.
When saw him In the lobby he wore upon
the back Of bis round, bullet head a very
slim, high, old-fashioned silk hat Of style
that was very popular about the time Of the
close OF the war. IL was about two sizes too
small. His Short iron-gray hair stood out
from under the rim OF his hat at nearly right
angles with 1t. His red, weather beaten face
does not show any new lines Of advancing
age, but his grizzly, iron-gray mustache and
imperial are whitening very fast. He wore q
short, light yellow-gray overcoat which had
two buttons, aud they were nearly
rea ly TO fly of from the undue strain Of
sheridan's round figure. The coat, like the
hat, appeared to have been long outgrown.
The trousers we're gray plaid and fitted very
suugly TO the Generals fat legs. His boots
were thick soled and unblacked. He wore
no gloves. The side and rear views OF the
General suggested low-comedy man who
had walked of the stage all made up for q
funny part, but when you came TO look at
the General square In the face, its stern,
solemn, composed lines we're enough TO
make one forget his grotesque figure and
careless dress.

"When We started from the Girard college

Signal Service Officer Hammond. in relating
his experiences on his first balloon ascent
with Aeronaut King, 81 confess felt lust
little bit nervous. This soon wore off,
however, for the professors GOODNESS in
spired one with similar confidence. We
rose almost perpendicularly and rapidly from
the college grounds. When we reached an
altitude of about half a mile we were caught
In a northeastly current and carried swiftly
oyer the city into New Jersey, In the direc-
ton of Mount Holly. We gradually rose to
a height of 8, 800 feet and then found our
solves over some extensive woods. The
darkness was rapidly overtakiug US, SO Prof.
King judged 1t would be better to descend
without attempting to reach a loftier alti-
tude, as we had intended doing.
"We therefore descended oh a little viii
lage called Manahawken, about two miles
from the bay and four and half miles from
the extreme end of Barnegat beach. 1t was
| FIVE minutes after o'clock when we touched
| land. Our object in making the trip was to
| obtain the changes of temperature at differ
elevations. 1t has been stated that the tenn
perature varies one degree in $50 feet.
When we left Girard college the thermometer
stood at 90 degrees. When we reached our
highest point of $500 feet 1t had gone down
to 8 degrees. We also made note of our We
locity, with the result that in three minutes
we rose 300 feet or IA Of an inch of the
barometerical change. That is at the rate Of
400 feet minute. / found another thing,
that we we So high at $500 feet that we
could not hear an echo, and that al an ee-
walton of two-thrds of mile we could dis
tinctly hear voice. 1t was not very cold.
We were very warmly clad, but / did rot
even button my coat. The distance traversed
was eighty miles, and we did 1t in two hours
and fifty minutes. 1t was my first balloon
| trip, and enjoyed it thoroughly. We re-
ceived quite an ovation from the Mana
bawken villagers, who were surprised beyond
measure at our sudden descent upon them
from the skies. This was Prof. Kings two

A Great Day aft New OrIpans.

New ORLEANS, Jan. 26.-To-day was a
great day for the exposition. Extensive
preparation had been made for the reception
of the famous liberty bell from Philadelphia.
Among others invited to take part in the pro-
ceedings was jefferson Davis, who met the
special train bearing the bell at his home, at
Beauvoir, Miss, and made "A brief speech
there. A large number of citizens of New
Orleans an Philadelphia also met the train
at that point and all came together to this
city, where the streets were lined with peo-
pie. The car bearing the bell having been
received on the standard gauge tracks at
Eysian Fields street steamed along the levee
about O'Clock, and much enthusiasm was
shown. salutes were fired, whistles blown aud
flags displayed on the shipping. The grand
reception was arranged to take place In
music hall, the main exposition building,
but several unforeseen delays occurred and
it was found necessary to postpone the re-
ception ceremonies until "Wednesday after
noon. Music hall was packed with people.
The weather to-day was very fine, and the
attendance at the exposition was the greatest
since the opening.
