THE HANDSOME CHURCH PRESIDENT
HARRISON VISITS ON SUNDAY.

How the Ruler Of the Nation is Stared Mt
When He Attends Divine servicc-De-
scription of Ono of tho Finest Churches
In Washington.
1t is a trying ordeal for the president of
the United States to attend church. lie needs
the impcrturbability of stole to endure,
without noticeable embarrassment, the un-
ceasing stare Of the congregation. There is
no cxaggeration III saying that he is looked
upon as something of n freak; rs for in
stance, the ingenious natives of Central
Africa would gaze upon an India rubber man
wrapping; lbs face around his arms. From
the time the president enters the church and
walks up tile middle aisle between the lines
of people, until he walks out to tho curb and
steps into his carriage, he is regarded as a
man whose chief function in life is the de-
lirously JOYOUS occupation of making an ex-
hibition of himself, 1t Is much the sano
with the presidents family.
The church which President Harrison will
attend for the next four years includes some
OF tho wealthiest and many of the most prom
inent people in Washington among its mem
DcTS. lnlS Is llle NUuICu VI TUG NONcLdIt,
situated Mt tho southeast corner of Con
necticut avenue and n street, and in tho very
heurt Of the fashionable aud splcndidly i'm
proved northwestern portion of the city.
The church is the most elegant i'll point Of
finish and the most picturesque in point Of
design in Washington. 1t is built in the
Romancsque style, though relieved by light
and graceful touches here and there. 1t is
built of stone quurried near by at the great
falls of the Potomac. The most striking
feature Of tho exterior is the tower, 20 feet
square md rising 10 n height of liS feet Tho
corners are turretcI, md the walls are
pierced by small windows, which at once
give light to the interior and relieve what
would otherwise be n heavy and too solid
effect. AT tho top is a belfry. The body Of
the church forms a parallelogram. The Oh
frances are from Connecticut avenue, one
being under the huge tower and the other
under All elevation at the opposite side. Be
tween the two, and forming rich feature
of the front OF tho church, Is an immense
window, with IN arch exquisitely carved,
There nre gables on each side of tho building,
and rising from the center is the square
lantern.

Six months ago the collar mania was in. its
infancy. People scowled upon the innora-
tions, but they We're hard to down. md now,
instead Of the makers appealing to their Gus
toners to look fnvorably upon their novel
ties the customers are crying 'More," Every
body wears the new collars--judges, states
men, merchants, mechanics, pugilists, nth-
letes, college students. Perhaps the students
affect them nlost. In some colleges they
serve us badge OF distinction show
ing to which society tho wearer be-
longs OF the latest novelties very
popular one is the French collar
which laps III front like Il double breasted
frock coat On either side of tho chin Is Il
small shapely pointed tab pointing downward
But the standing collar has secured II strong
hold upon the necks Of thousands OF American
citizens, from Which all tho fatls will not be-
ablo to dislodge it. The collar designers
know this, and as they are exceedingly oblig-
ing try to compromise the situation by max
ing collar which is both standing and
turned down, having double set Of points
one standing and the other turned squarely
down almost ut right angles. The fat man Is
not forgotten by the obliging designer, and
for his special benefit q high collar has been
made, which is scooped out in front like a
half moon. This arrangement makes room
for tho dropping double chln OF the wearei'.
The popularity Of tho square ear collar is so
great that the promoters of certain novel
shapes have not departed from that idea, but
have modified it in some respects.
Ono of tho variations rejoces III small
turned tabs at the top points, with rounded
points midway down the front spacing. This
collar appeals to the eye oi advanced dudes
and young men about town.
As n supEial favor TO men who insist IIDOn
wearing high collars, even at the risk of per-
sonul Inconvenience, style has been intro
duced which aims to obviato all difficulty.
This collar opens wide in front and the top
points are clipped OF.
Ono of the new faucies laps at the lower
points, and the top points arc bent over 50 as
10 form shaped opening. The effect is
decidedly fetching and is also 4 candidate for
hot weather tavorisisnl. Then there i, the

The new North-west. [volume] (Deer Lodge, Mont.) 1869-1897, 1889-04-05

As will be seen by the picture here given,
this locomotive differs very materially from
the ordinary locomotives i'll use upon Amer
lean railroads, and though she does not differ
in looks from other English locomotives, the
principles Of her construction differ much
moro from all other locomotives than her
appearance Briefly, this difference may be
stated rs follows: The Dreadnaught has
three cylinders, one low pressure in
side and two high pressure outside Its
two pairs of driving wheels are uncounected,
and there is 4 substitute for tho old time
link motion for working the valves The
Two outside cylinders receive steam direct
from the boiler and it is worked ut high
pressure exactly as in the ordinary American
locomotive. After the steam has been used
in the high pressure cylinders it is admitted
to the inside or low pressure cylinder first
having been superheated, where it is worked
tho second time, and having lost u much
greater portion Of its energy than in the old
stylc OF locomotive is then admitted direct to
the smoke stack, the same as In the present
engines, where it assists i'll forming Il draft.
The high pressure or outside cylinders are
connected directly to tho rear or trailing pair
Of drivers while tho inside is connected with
the forward pair Of drivers It is therefore
not necessary that the t.To pair of drivers
shall bo exactly of tho same diameter, and
this is a great advantage as one Of the great
est difficulties met in the construction of the
ordinary American locomotive is to secure
exact uniformity OF size. Beside being much
swiftcr engines, the new locomotives aressaid
to be much more economical N the case of
ono engine converted from II simple high
pressure engine to a compound machine on
an English road the consumption of coal was
reduced from 3l4 to 23o. The other ad-
vantnges arc greater adhesive power OF the
engine and therefore greater pulling power
The disposition of the three cylinders effects
much more satisfactory balance aud consc-
quentlv a steadier run. Tho main objection
is in the difference of starting this form Of
engine with train on q grade, as the low
pressure cylinder is not operative until the
steam has been received from the high pres-
sure cylinder.
III some compound locomotives there is Il
contrivauce for the admission of Steam direct
from the boiler ro the high pressure cylinder,
but this plan has not been adopted with the

latest performance has been to warn certain
wealthy foreigners residing in Paris that they

that the French authorities Judged correctly

CHURCH OF THE CovES

The interior is beautifully and claboratc!y
finished. -Four large pillars support seven
circular arches, which i'll turn support tEe
lantern with its domed roof Tho decoration
of the walls and ceiling Is in plaster the
prevailing color being of an ivory tint.
The pillars are brouzcd. Groups Of angels
appear on the spandrils Of the lantern, and
on the front Of the huge pipe organ, midway,
are two angels, one on either side, and each
with u trumpet raised to the lips. The figures,
which are light and graceful, are bronzed.
The windows are of stained glass, and that
on the street side is II present from Mrs
Martha NJ. Read, as u memorial to her father
Admiral Dahlgren. The pulpit and COM
munion table ure neatly carved and are made
of oak, cedar and olive got out i'll tho log
from the Holy Land They wero presented
to the church by the pastor, Dr. Ha,nlin.
An accident which befcll the church last
October moved the whole town to profound
regret, Tho immense tower, which had but
q few days before been completed, crumbled
early ono morning, leaving only mass OF
ruins. Both the architecture and the material
were detective. Fortunately, no one was hurt
Tho loss, however, which the congregation
generously shared with the contractor, was
$50, 900. The present tower is being construct
cd on similar lines, but with such cnre as to
insure its perfect safety.
Tho building, when completed, will have
cost $2l5,0oO. The seating capacity is esti-
mated at 900
The pastor Of the Church Of tho Cove
nnnt is the Rev. DIR. Taunis S. Hamlin. Dr..
Hamlin is native Of Schenectady, N Y,
and is only i years of age He is a young
man, indeed, to be at tho head OF the largest
and most prominent congregation in Wash
ington. He was educated at Union college
and Union seminary, New York city. His
first charge was Mt Troy, where he remained
thirteen years He was then called to Gin
cinnati, where he remained two years, and
then removed to Washington, where he has
been for nearly three years Two years ago
he was made Il D. D. by his alma mater Dr.
Hamlin's success here has been remarkable
His congregation, which was colony from
the New York Avenue church, was small,
and then worshped in chapel. Now it
could lend tho old church money and provide
1t with pews free Of rent in the new building.
Dr.. Hnmlin is handsome man His eyes
are brown, and only few fugitive gray
hairs show at his temples and in his brown
beard. Heis an impressive speaker, fluent
and correct, a capable man of business with
knack for finances, and with an address
which is at once easy and captivating. He is
married and has m interesting family of
children.
