be learned. Nolan admitted that he

Sometimes the patient refuses to come to
the hospital, even in sick cases, and his
friends only laugh at the drivers

out that the ambulance is not wanted he
generally gets out of the way before the

UNION SERVICES.

The Rev. Mr.. Cronin's Address in the
Wayne Street Church Yesterday.
Union services were held at the Wayne
Street Reformed Church last night and
the Rev. Mr.. Cronin, of Missouri, who
has been engaged by the several churches
to supply vacancies, preached. His con-
gregation was large one and was made
up of the members of half dozen
churches.
Mr.. Cronin is so well known in this city
that he requires no introduction to church
people, and he was warmly greeted after
the sermon.
He took for his subject Jonah at Nine
yah, and dwelt long on the trouble that
existed between the people OF that city
and those at Jerusalem.
He said that the men of Ninevah used
every endeavor to condemn the men of
Jerusalem for their practices, and asked
pertinently and in caustic manner what
they would have said of the practices of
the people today who have far more priv
ileges and license than did those of Jeru-
salem. The clergyman besought his
hearers to remember this and draw les
son from it.
His sermon was received attentively by
those present and was effective.
Mr.. Cronin will supply pulpits in this
city until September.

ADDITIONAL ART NOTES.

Dabbs. and proves that whatever style of pic
ture Mr.. Dabbs undertakes he is sure to excel.

In common between the Terpsichorean art and
the art of the decorator. but the former has
recently been pressed into the service of the
latter in New York. 1t Is said that the costume
bali held under the auspices of the Society of
Decorative Art, at the rooms of the Water
Color Society, yielded the sum of 81 800, from
which amount only some slight incidental ex-
penses will have to be deducted, leaving quite
a snug sum to go into the society's treasury.

certain favored localities. Among painters
who possess world-w wide reputation. and who
are represented by works in this collection,
mention may be made of few of the most IA

our readers. Th. Rousseau is represented by
a picture called THE Dawn" a companion to
the one in the Morgan sale called "fwilight;''
Jules Breton, by one entitled .St. Johns

Perrault Corot, Schachinger, Henner, J. G.
Vibert, Saddler and others of equal ability
will be sure to arrest the attention of the visi-
tor to the gallery. The "Corot" OF this collec-
tion is splendid little work, formerly owned
by Mr.. Secretion, and like the work bv j. c..
Vfbert, the author of the famous .'Mission-

to convey an idea of the character of the work

Ii Was a Grand Success.

The Martha Washington Tea Party, held
Friday evening last in Hamilton's Art Cham
Der by the Ladies' Aid Society No. 1, auxiliary
to Davis Camp, Sons of Veterans, was grand
social, artistic and financial success The
young ladies who served the visitors were at
their best and made very favorable impression
on the large number of patrons. who Included
many prominent people in social and Grand
Army circles. The tables were removed about
IL P. M. and an entertain ment followed, which
was well directed by l.. II. R. FouIk, consisting
of an address by Colonel Thomas G. Sample, a
violin solo by Miss Mamie Sawyer, a
recitation by Miss Caddie W White and solo by
Miss Irene Sample. Dancing was then in ORDER
which continued until 2 A. NJ. Much of the
credit of this successful and brilliant affair is
due TO Mrs. Colonel w. L. Foulk, President of
the Society, who was ably assisted by the differ
ent committees. Mrs Major A. P. Davis rep
resented Martha Washington. and she per-
sonated the character with dignity and grace.
The ladies, through the columns of THE DIS
PATCH, desire to return their sincere thanks to
the many merchants and others for their lib
eral donations, among whom were s. 8. Marvin
& Co., s. Hamilton, Demmler Brothers, George
X. Stevenson & Co., William Haslage Son,
William Trayeer, F. & j. Heinz, B. A. Elliots
and William p. Greer.
