almost as much of deficiency as there

THE Chicago Tribune is disposed

The Chicago Tribune is disposed to
think that Chicago could have handled
the centennial celebration in better
shape than New York. We think not.
Aside from the wrangle over the ball,
which was really the most insignificant
part of the proceedings, the parades,
naval, military and civic, appear from
all accounts to have been such as to
awake the deepest feelings of patriotism
in the hearts of those who witnessed
the displays. New York is the big city
of the country and she appears TO have
held up her reputation in this centen-
nial-even TO the matter of getting up
the biggest row ever known over so
small subject as the centennial ball.

ALTHOUGH the present weather is any
thing but agreeable to residents of this
region, we should perhaps be thankful
that it isn't any worse. Dakota for a
day or two past has experienced winds
that nearly discounted the blowing re-
cord of that part of the country, and
much damage Is reported from the gales.
The curious part of the present storms
is that they don't bring rain. The
drouth is becoming very serious one,
while the winds are doing their work at
uncovering the seed.

In his annual report to the Civil Serv-
ice Reform Association Mr.. George Will
liam Curtis makes two as surprising as
untruthful statements regarding the late
postmaster Pearson of New York City.
LIST, that the late postmaster was martyr
to the ''spoils" machine" in both par
ties. "His official destruction, says
Mr.. Curtis, "was therefore the common
cause of the machine in both parties. +"
Now, Mr.. Curtis knows as we'll as the
entire intelligent public, that during
President Arthur's administration post
master Pearson's health was excellent.
Whatever difficulties and controversies
he may have had to encounter they were
not serious enough to wear him or to af-
feet his general health and vigor. He
had substantially his own way, and the
"spoils machine" got no help from that
sincere, practical and unpretending sup
porter of Civil Service Reform, Presi-
dent Arthur. 1t was during the era of
pretentious and Pharisaical Reform I'M
der the Cleveland Administration that
Postmaster Pearson encountered the
trials that worried and wore him down
and finally reduced him to the degree OF
physical weakness that made him the
easy victim of disease. A Democratic
House contracting the appropriations
and Postmaster-GeneraI openly favor
ing "the spoils system" crippled the
New York Office to such degree that
ex-Postmaster-General James, after his
recent examination of affairs, as acting
Postmaster, said that $500, 600 more a
year was wanted to put the Office in a
condition of first-rate efficiency. These
are the facts, as plainly stated by the
New York Mail and Express, and so we'll
known as to be indisputable, and it Is
amazing that Mr.. Curtis should have the
audacity to make his indictment against
"the spoils machine" cover both the
Arthur Administration, during which
Mr.. Pearson was the image of health
and full of strength and vigor, and dur
ing the Cleveland Administration, when
our late Postmaster wore himself out In
contending against the evil pressure, the
Withholding of necessary appropriations
and the vicious policies of his Democrat
ic official superiors. A faithful and com
plete record of Mr.. Pearson's life during
his service under Arthur and Cleveland
would be the most effectual disclosure of
the humbug and false pretenses that
have been employed by Mr.. Curtis and
associates in palliating the ofenses of
the Cleveland Administration against
Reform" and of the great, undeniable,
eloquent fact that Mr.. Pearson had no
serious troubles or annoyances under a
Republican Administration. So much
for the first criticism on Mr.. Curtis. The
second is that he reiterates the self-evi-
IDENTITY untrue assertion that Mr.. Pearson
was removed" whereas he was allow
ed to serve out his full term, which ex-
pired on the 3D. of April, and it was not
until the 9th of April that Mr.. Van Colt
was appointed. Just how such men as
Curtis can believe themselves consistent
in their announcement of the corruption
of politics when they themselves indulge |
in such misleading and juggling state
ments as those exposed above is difficult |
to understand.

CHURCH OF THE COVENANT.

The interior Is beautifully and deliberately
finished. Four large pillars support seven
circular arches, which in turn support the
lantern with its domed roof The decoration
Of the walls and ceiling Is in plaster, the
prevailing color being of an ivory tint.
The pillars are bronzed- 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 trumpet raised to the lips. The figures,
which are light and graceful, are bronzed
The windows are of stained glass, and that
ON the N street side is present from Mrs
Martha NJ Read, as memorial to her father,
Admiral Dahlgren. The pulpit and COM
munion table are neatly carved and are made
Of oak, cedar and olive, got out in the log
from the Holy Land. They were presented
the church by the pastor, DR.. Hamlin.
AN accident which befell the church last
October moved the whole town to profound
regret The immense tower, which had but
few days before been completed, crumbled
early one morning, leaving only mass Of
ruins. Both the architecture and the material
were defective Fortunately, no one was hurt
The loss, however, which the congregation
generously shared with tho contractor, was
$40, 600 The present tower is being construct
ed on similar lines, but with such care as to
insure its perfect safety.
The building, when completed, will have
cost $4,000. The seating capacity Is esti-
mated at 1000
The pastor of the Church of the Cove
nant Is the Rev. DIR. Taunis S. Hamlin. Dr.
Hamlin is y native of Schenectady, N. Y,
and Is only Al years Of age. He is young
man, indeed, to be at the 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 at 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 ID. ID. by his alma mater DIR.
Hamlin's success here has been remarkable
His congregation, which was a colony from
the New York Avenue church. was small,
and then worshiped in a chapel Now it
could lend the old church money and provide
1t with pews free of rent in the new building.
Dr. Hamlin is a handsome man. His eyes
are brown, and only few fugitive gray
hairs show at his temples and in his brown
beard He is an impressive speaker, fluent
and correct, capable man of business with
a lnack for finances, and with an address
which is at once easy and captivating. He is
married and has an interesting family of
children

certainly not encouraging:
We are without doubt within the
middle of drouth. We are also hav-

doing heavy damage. We had heavy
wind from the south yesterday; winds
like this from that direction usually
brings rain but not so In this case. With
continuation of two or three weeks OF
such weather as we have had for the
past month, the crop of 1889 will not
equal the last one. ! CONSIDER the pro
