THE PRESBYTERIANS.
The Reunion Celebration At
tended by Large Crowds.

PHILADELPHIA, May "a. - The
Academy and Horticultural hall were
both damned this afternoon, although
rain was falling heavily at 3o'clock,
the hour at which the ceremonies of the
reunion celebration were held. Hon.
William Strong. ex-justice of the
United States supreme court, was in
the chair at the academy meeting, and
around him were grouped some of the
many distinguished Presbyterian di-
vines and laymen of both general assem-
blies. The first speaker was Hon. John
Randolph Tucker, of Virginia, who
spoke on the Adaptation of Presbyter-
ism to the Masses" The entire adj
dress was a theological analysis
shows that all things work to-
gether for good to them that love God,
and repudiated every phase of skepti-
cism, infidelity and agnosticism. ''Cal-
vim may be our father. but Paul was
our grandfather" was sentiment that
brought out round of applause. Rev.
S. j. Mcpherson, ID. D., of Chicago,
spoke on "PreSbyterianism and Educa-
ton" Mrs. Cleveland, who had ar
rived during the speaking and
occupied a seat in the Prince
of Wales box, rose and
Joined in the singing. She re-
manned to the close of the exercises,
which lasted until $50 p. m. Gal
vinism and Human Progress" was the
subject of an address by Congressman
James S. Cothran, of South Carolina.
The last address of the afternoon was
by ex-United States Senator Samuel j.
r. Mcmillan, of Minnesota, who spoke
on ''Presbyterianism and Republican
Government" and the exercises
came to close with the benediction
by Rev. DR.. Francis l.. Patton, presi-
dent-elect Of Princeton college. At the
conclusion of the two meetings the
members of both assemblies exchanged
fraternal greetings and the spirit of
fellowship was marked. The members
of the Southern assembly will return to
Baltimore tomorrow morning. The
Northern assembly will resume its bust
ness sitting tomorrow and the regular
order of the day will be the q uestiOn of
organization.

THE CLOSE AT LOUISVILLE.
The Kentucky Handicap Won by
Egmont.

LOUISVILLE, KY, May 24.-The most
successful spring meeting, from a
racing point of view, in the history of
the Louisville Jockey club closed
to-day with magnificent programme.
The racing throughout the ten days has
been superb, and but for the rainy
weather the club would have enjoyed an
equally great financial success. As it
was the attendance on the bad DAYS was
large, and with to-dayS immense crowd
the clubs eXchequer must exhibit a
very healthy condition. The weather
was warm and pleasant this morning.
and the knowledge that the greatest
race of the meeting, the Kentucky
Handicap, was to be run, filled the stand
to OverflOwing and the free field with
the customary swarmS on the free days.
The ladies were also out in force There
was never probably a better field in
America to face the starter than that
which gathered at the post be-
fore the third race. In it were
two Derby winners, winners of num-
berleSS stakes, horses that had made
the record, and not one of which would
have been genuine surprise had he
won. Terra Gotta was the fayorite.
though Egmont sold well up with him,
and the others were well backed. The
race was beautiful one, being run
from end to end, and there were no lag
CARDS until the last furlong was reached.
1t was furious pace that Gallifet set
after leaving the first quarter past the
stand, and the time in which Egmont,
the really great son of Enquirer, won
was equal to the record, the track being
regarded, at best. a second slow. The
first quarter was run ID 1854, the half

FOR YOuNG MEN

The issue of the tariff made so un-
mistakably by the Democracy offers to
the young men of Minnesota an opp0r-
tunity for patriotic work such as has
not been had since the war. Audiences
will no longer listen with patience to
tedious assertions on the war or the
issues that divided the political BOSSES
not the people-aiter the war. What is
demanded is stirring and practical adj
dresses on how clothing may be made
cheaper, taxes reduced and government
lessened. The people need education
of the right kind on these topics and
they will not be satisfied with mere
partisan harangueS.
Young men who have the ability to
study the tariff from the point OF view
or whether it enricheS and benefits the
American people or the American
monopolistS, and who can then intelli-
gently tell the people what conclusions
they have drawn from these studies,
have a field for labor full of the
richest reward. No young man will
ever have to blush if in after years it is
said that he stepped into political promi-
nence on the platform Of tariff reform.
To fight shy of politics is an action to
be condemned in youth. Political strife
has not wholly become a struggle for
the offices. There is in it vet magnifi-
cent openings for courageous and
honest young blood.

Building the Eastern.

CHICAGO, May 24.-The Western &
Northwestern Freight association was
reorganized to-day under an agreement
which becomes effective June IL. If
provides that regular meetings of the
association shall be held OH the
second Tuesday of each month,
and that any road desiring
to change its tariff rates must give no
tlce five days in advance of a regular
meeting, so that the proposition may be
considered at such meeting. If the de
clSlon of the association is adverse to
the proposed change, and that particu-
lar road still wishes to make new rates
on ltssoWn line it must give notice then
and there of its intention, such
notice to become effective ten days
after that date. Any line, however,
maymeet outside competition without
giving notice in advance, but must adj
wise the chairman of its section. A road
changing its rates in violation of the
provisions of the agreement will be liza
pie to fine of from 500 to
5000: 1t further provides that any
foad, inside or outside of the
association shall be prosecuted in the
courts or before the Interstate COM
merce commission when complaint is
made against it of illegal conduct. The

MRS. POTTER.
A Gathering From ST. PauI's
Social Circles Attracted nv the

A Gathering From ST. PauI's
Social Circles Attracted by the
Star.
When pretty Mrs. James Brown Potter
stepped out on the stage at the Grand
last evening she was welcomed with a
hearty round of applause from an audi
ence that nearly filled the opera house
and composed largely of the elite of the
city. She is handsome, wears good
clothes, her elocution is perfect, she
gives evidence of culture and thorough
dramatic training, and the only thing
that Is lacking is genius. Mind, we are
not speaking of Mrs. Potter now. That
was said by a cynical critic eight or ten
years ago, when Mary Anderson made
her debut as dramatic star. And yet,
to-day, Miss Anderson is peerless in
her profession. What one woman can
accomplish under difficulties, may be
performed by another. So much in the
way of Encouragement to Mrs. Potter.
1t Is probably because she is a star of
her own motion instead of having re-
lied on merit and long apprenticeship
of conscientious labor for elevation that
the newspapers have been more harsh
in their criticimS of Mrs. Potter than
they would otherwise have been. She
is not entitled to be enrolled with
Modjeska, with Mary Anderson, with
Clara Morris and women of their fame
and merit, and yet she has future be-
fore her full of brilliancy
PROVIDEB SHE SUBMITS
to certain conditions. One of those con-
ditions is that i'll playing Lady of
Lyons" she must forget that she is Mrs.
Potter and that for the time she is only
Pauline. Another one is that she
must study facial expression, and
give more play to the features
and do less rolling of the eyes. Not
Withstanding the numerous adverse crit
lcisms on her acting Mrs. Potter has
dramatic talent and brilliant at that.
But, oh, it needs Schooling-the school
long study and patient labor.
If five years ago she had taken an un-
derpart in good company by this time
she would nave won by merit an undiS-
puted title to her stellar claims. Five
years hence she will be a good deal
higher up in the profession than she is
to-day.
Mr.. Bellows work is of the most fill
lShed order, and yet he suffers because
of his diminutive stature. His voice is
faulty i'll that it drops into whisper
often when occasion does not require it.
The rest of the company are only
mediocre. Some of them hardly that.
1t is little singular that a society

Negro Riots in Mississippi.

JACKSON, Miss, May PA we'll
founded rumor exists here of a riot
among the negroes at Tongalce college,
eight miles north OF this place. on the
Illinois Central railroad. This was COM
mencement day at the college. A large
crowd of negroes had assembled. 1t is
said that the negroes were drinking a
good deal. When the 4 p. m. down
train passed, some shooting had taken
place. but no one had been hurt
Later telegram was received by the
city marshal, urging him to bring up
his whole police force. as riot was in
progress. Nothing definite can be
learned. No answer can be got from
the telegraph office. 1t is rumored that
several negroes have been killed.

lasing to the location of saloons in the
neighborhood of churches and school
houses. 1t sometimes occurred under
the HARRISON regime that the little
side door of saloon was open on Sun
day, but the law requiring saloons to be
located a certain distance from church
edifices was always enforced. 1t is not
so under the so-called reform admins
tration. The Republican council per-
mits saloon to run in full blast right
by the side of church door, and the
reform police department doesn't
trouble itself to shut the front door of a
saloon when it is opened Oh Sunday.
The church people are making bitter
fight on the so-called reform council,
but the chances are that the council
will now alter the law giving the saloon
preference, and requiring the churches
and school houses to be located at GER
tain distances from the saloons.
