CHURCH MUSIC.

Some of the old fogies who have come
down from the crude times of PETER
CARTWRIGHT. who thoughtinstrumental
music in church was wicked attempt
to worship God by machinery" are
pessimistic over the growing DISPOSE
ton to utilize the best in melody and
art in the churches. A man of this
class who attends one of the largest
churches in the city, where there is
often pulpit remonstrance against tar
diness, remarked the other day that he
always made it a rule to get there as
close up to the sermon as possible, as
that, although too brief, was the only
spiritual nourishment he desired from
the service. The house has big organ
and fine music. A feature being in
troduced in churches that inaugurate
service with choral procession prom
Uses to add to the attractions of church
exercises. These have been confined to
boys and young men. The new
wrinkle is to accompany them with
vested chorus of young ladies.
These have been tried in England and
Australia with satisfactory results. The
first experiment in the United States
was naturally in Brooklyn, at an even
ing service last month. It was so we'll
received that at the same church Christ
mas morning the addition was for the
first time made to the day exercises,
and will be permanent fixture, and no
doubt epidemic in that religious persua-
sion. There we're eight single and one
married lady in this inauguratory pro-
eession. They filed into the chaneel
from a side entrance, while the male
choir came in from the vestry az usual.
1t may be of interest to some to know
the style of the yestments of the ladies.
They consist of a loose-fitting gown of
fine white muslin, resembling the new
style Of listers, and reaching a little
below the knee. The back is shirred,
while rolling collar leaves exposed a
Y-shaped portion of tile black dress be-
meath. The sleeves of the gown are of
the "angel sleeve" pattern. The head
gear is of black alpaca. shaped after the
style of bishops cap or beretta.
1t is presumed the feature will soon
be familiar to church attendants gen
orally.

SUNDAY CHATTER.

One of the most learned and expert
enced attorneys of Boston, in an argu-
ment before an equity board the other
day, objected to one of the distinguished
diyines selected to act in a judicial
capacity in an ecclesiastical inquiry,
for the reason that he believed the
preacher 'to be an honest Christian
man, but so biased beyond his own
knowledge and so marked by prejudice
as to be incapable of acting justly"
That looks like confusion of ideas.
How man can be an honest Christian
and act unjustly is conundrum. The
essence of Christianity is justice. A
religious system or faith that does not
balance the scales of justice is not
reproduction of that inculcated by the
NaZarine, yet it is probable that some
wearers of the sacred cloth, in the con-
tracted regions of the East, are not too
severely characterized by the Boston at

fades who stand in Cars.

A young lady remarked recently that
she was quite often forced to stand up
in the cable cals while very healthy and
fresh-looking men occupied seats. In
such exigencies she said her habit ives
to stumble accidentally and heavily as
possible upon the place where she sup
posed their corns were. There is no in
tention to give away a secret, but an oc-
casional unfortunate may suspect that
female retribution is at times on his
toes. But if there are instances where
gentlemen fail to respond to the de-
mands of politeness in the crowded car,
it is probable that they have fresh in
mind cases where they did the polire
act at some expense of comfort, and not
a word of recognition or pleasant smile
has rewarded them. There is good
deal of equality in the relations of peo-
pie in public conveyance. and ladies
are apt to be thoughtless and take court
estes as right when they are due to
politeness only. A gentleman takes
pleasure in giving his place to lady
when she indicates an understanding of
what pOliteneSS is.

The New Winter Game.

Among the devices for the enjoyment
of social gatherings this winter one in
troduced in the vicinity of st. Louis,
and which is becoming popular in that
section, has double value, instr uctive
and entertaining. The company was
seated at refreShment table and given
tests in seeing, hearing, smelling and
tasting. First each was given thirty
seconds to inspect sixteen articles on
the table to be described. Then for the
other tests the participants were blind
folded. and they were to detect various
flowers, vegetables and drugs from the
smell. Glasses, bells, COINS and plates
were described from the sound; furs,
laces, velvets, etc., were distinguished
by feeling, and the taste was tried with
water. milk, brandy, sugar and other
more or less familiar things. In such.
tests experts often make ludicrous mis-
takes, and the educative feature is
pleasantly mingled with the humorous.

Browning seemed to have a firmer hold

The Army Canteen System.

Recent dispatches speak of the adop-

aging results, of what is known as the
canteen system. 1t is sort of modified
Y. NJ. c. A., the religious feature not
appearing. Every army pest is to have
them. They do away with the sutler,
who has been regarded as lucrative
If not specially patriotic institution.
Tie canteen is cooperative, and divides
the profits, if any, among the soldiers.
1t furnishes them about all they are
likely to want except liquors, and has
rooms for reading, smoking, and, per-
haps, gymnasium and a bowling alley.
Bowling is becoming the popular recre-
alton in the Eastern cities of Late. This
canteen feature has been in use in the
British army, and is shown to have a
beneficial effect upon the men. 1t af-
fords them an attractive resort, free
from bad influences, and is said to
greatly diminish assertions. 1t is pos
sible that it may afford some suggestion
for philanthropic use outside the army.

CoLoREn NIIGRATION.

The discussion OF the race question
by the brilliant and lamented GRADY in
his last speeches, and the bills intro
duced in congress by Southern MEM
bers to encourage negro migration, are
indications that the people of the South
are quite as sensible as distant onlook-
ers can he of the difficulties attendant
upon this matter. They are evidences
that the best thought of those with most
at stake is being gigen to the subject.
There are various propositions to colo
nize such of them as choose to go In
Congo, Mexico and other places out OF
the United States limits. None OF them
will be likely to be adopted. They are
noticeable chiefly as indicating the dis
position of the whites in the South. A
dozen or so years ago there was violent
opposition to the migration of colored
people to Kansas and other North
ern states on account of the loss
of labor. Now a movement of $4,000
or more from North Carolina to other
sections attracts little attention. There
is growing disposition to encourage the
negroes to migrate. More of them go
South than North. Mississippi, Texas
and other Southwest regions are favor
ties with them. The idea of reducing
the colOred population by migration
out of the country is an absurdity. A
recent writer says that in the South 600
negro children are born per day. Any
schemes to prevent the increase of that
class of population will have small re-
suits. Congress cannot move one OF
them. 1t may be we'll to encourage
them to form colonies in new regions
where they will more rapidly acquire
land and become permanent and in
dustrious communities, but there is
room for their activities in most parts of
the South,

George w ashington Was Sneezer

1t is believed that the continuous rec
ords of this sneezing epidemic do not
extend further back than 1910, and 1t is
not known that it had much OF run in
this country. There are some other in
cidents that were mentioned in connec-
ton with it that may have been mere
condolences, but were exciting to the
superstitiOus. There was visitation
of caterpillars, suggestive of the locusts,
in Moses time. and an epidemic of
murran among cattle: also an eruption
of Hecla added to the spectacular feat
ures. This seems to be one of the sea-
sons adapted to it. There is good
deal more snobblshness with this cpl
demic than with most diseases. 1t goes
for those in high and soft places among
the first. George Washington was one
of its victims in 1889. and high function
aries are now reported generally among
the sneezers. So far as there is infor-
nation. about all the world has been
visited by these epidemics. without
| much regard to travelling facilities or
the needs of. newspapers. The best
preventive is to keep the system in
good working order and resolve not to
! have it.
