A TRANSFORMED CHURCH.
Some Things that DIT. Domer's Congre-
cation Will be Thankful for,

The snditorium of st. Paul's English Luther
an church, corner of 18th and H streets north
west, Rev. Dr.. Domer pastor, has recently un-
dergone o remarkable Transformation. II will
be reopened with appropriate services on Sun
day. Those who have been in the habit of at
tending this place Of worship will scarcely be
able 70 recognize the old sanctuary in the new
appointments, improvements and decorations
The church has been greatly improved and
besutifed, SO that it is now one of the hand
soonest and Coolest audience chambers in the
city. The space has been utilized in the best
possible manner. There are new pews, new
carpets, new pulpit, new chancel and new fur
nifure. The old choir gallery has been extended
and enlarged and made part Of the general
auditorium for the use Of the congregation.
An organ platform has been erected in the rear
OF the pulpit for the organ and choir. The
walls and ceiling have been painted in fresco
subdued colors being used and beautiful de-
signs. The Illuminating arrangement is very
complete, Three splendid reflectors pour down
their light from the arched ceiling, and are OPP
Grated by electric batteries. The wood work,
including the organ case, gallery front, pulpit,
pews, &C., is all of solid cherry, beautifully
Paneled, the panels veneered with dark, curIed
birch. The wainscoting is Of California red
wood, finely finished. That which specially
attracts the attention is the fine pipe organ
which has been erected in the rear OF the pull
pit. This instrument was built by Wilson s.
Reilly. Its dimensions are, width 16 feet. depth
81 feet, and height % feet. The organ con-
tains eight double-acting combination pedals,
which places the instrument under the most
complete control of the performer. Jaque
water motor supplies the power for the organ
The total number Of speaking pipes LII. The
maker of the organ is a Washington young
man. the son Of DIR. McKendree Kelley, Of the
M. Z. church, and was built in Georgetown.
The larger part of the cost of this organ was
contributed by Mrs. Ann T. Clary in memory
OF her son, the late James d. Clary, well known
in this city. The architect who designed and
superintendent the improvements Just COM
Pleted was Mr.; J. g. Meyers, of this city. The
carpeting of the church, the pulpit and pulpit
furniture were provided by the Ladies' Aid
society and others. The entire improvements
will cost about IS 600

Women i'm Ancient Rome,

1IOm tine contemporary REVIEW.
Examining history, then. think we must
come to the conclusion that the Roman ideas of
marriage had not bad effect either ON the hap
piness or morals of the women. If we take the
period Of Roman history from $50 b. C. to $50
A-D., we shall be surprised at the number of
the women of whom it is recorded that thew
were loved ardently by their husbands. exer-
cised beneficial influence on them and helped
them IN their political or literary work MANY
OF these women had received an excellent edu-
cation, they were capable and thoughtful and
took an active interest in the welfare of the
state. 1t is well known that it was Cornelia, the
mother OF the Gracchi, that inspired her sons
with the resolution to cope with the evils that
beset the state, and her purpose did not waver
when she knew that they had to face death in
their country's cause. Julia the daughter of
Julius Caesar, and the wife of Pompey. kept the
two leaders on good terms as long as she lived.
and acted with great sweetness and prudence
Cornella, Pompeys second wife. was a woman
OF great culture and most faithful and de-
voted wife. Plutarch thus describes her: THE
young woman possessed many charms besides
her youthful beauty, for she was well instructed
IN letters, in playing on the Tyre. and in geom-
etry, and she had been accustomed to listen to
philosophical discourses with profit. In addi-
ton to this she had disposition free from all
afectation and pedantic display which such ac-
qulrements generally breed in women" The
intervention of Octavia, the wife of Antony. in
affairs Of state. was entirely beneficial and ju-
dicious. The first Agrippina displayed courage
and energy, herself crushed mutiny among
the soldiers, and was in every way a help to
her husband Tacitus praises his mother
in-law, the wife of Agricola, as a
model of virtue, and he describes her as living
In the utmost harmony with her husband, each
preferring the other in love. And Pliny the
younger gives beautiful picture of his wife,
Calpurnia, telling friend how she showed the
greatest ability, frugality, and knowledge of
literature. Especially ''she has my books"
he says; ''she reads them again and again; she
even commits them to memory. What anxiety
she feels when am going to make a speech
before the judges; what joy when have fin
ished 1t! She places people here and there in
the audience TO bring her word what applauses
have been accorded to my speech, what has
been the issue of the trial. II give readings
OF my works anywhere she sits close by; sepa-
rated by a screen, and drinks in my praises
with most greedy ears. My verses also she
sings and sets them to the music of the Tyre;
no artist guiding her, but only love, who is the
best master"

me that 1t might smooth over the difficulty in
which he saw clearly should be placed on the
morrow in connection with Mme Nilsson if she
were presented to the shah prior to his depart

to Mime. Missions room, informing her of this.
She at once objected, having already removed
her magnificent "Traviata" toilet and altered
herself for the character of Mignon. which con-

notified his attendants that he would not go to

remain to see this extraordinary woman. His
