The CHARACTER OF WAsHINGToN.-
Rev. DR. Julius E. Grammer, rector of St
Peters Protestant Episcopal Church, OF
Baltimore, preached last Sunday night on
the character OF George Washington as il.

Washington lived for duty, not for glory
Like Christ, he declined crown. His life
vas life of deeds, MT of creed only. His
life was model of modesty, pie5y, US eful.

in point of Character, patriotism, wisdom
and self-denying devtioon to duty. sit Is
true," said DR.. Grammer, shat Christ
never used the sword, for be was the Prince
of Peace, but We read that He said He
came to bring a sword-the sword of truth
against error, of right against wrong, of
liberty against thraldom of conscience. As
Noses and Joshua, David and Solomon,
Josiah and Hezekiah, William of Orange,
and Gustavus Adolphus We're raised up OF
God to use the sword of noble conquest, SO
He clothed the sword of Washington With
wreaths of victory in the defense of human
liberty and right.

was lifted out, and then hurried on. Into
the building he dashed, the curious crowd
following behind him. Once inside he
fairly ran to the place where the tiny pin
was concealed. An instant later he found
it, and at once sank exhausted into the
arms of the committee. ''Take it off, take
it off" he whispered family, and the hot
bag was almost torn from his face. He
was laid down on the floor, the perspira-
ton standing in beads on his brow. In
moment his whole body became rigid and he
writhed in agony. DIR. Laton managed to
find some whisky among the crowd and
after this was thrust down his throat he
appeared TO recover slightly. He was car
ried out to the carriage. His body was
rigid and as the vehicle jolted along over
the stone pavement he began to cry hys-
terically. DIR. Laton said it was an attack
of something like catalepsy. Bishop him
| self, while he was lying on the floor of the
exposition, seemed to have terrible dread
of falling into cataleptic fit. ''Oh, oh, y
he sighed, keep me out of it; keep me out
of it." SWELL, there was no collision
about that" remarked that doubling
Thomas. Attorney James Worrall. All the
committee agreed that they had driven too
far, and that they should not have COM
PEELED Mr.. Bishop to drive so far. At the
exposition his pulse was 145 beats to the
minute, indicating the terrible strain that
he undergoes. At a late hour yesterday
Mr.. Bishop was still in very bad condi-
ton. He would ''come to- but immedi-
ately fall into the fit again.

Recent Parisian Trousseaux. CEror,1 fha Naw VNrk Ctnr1

Fashionable weddings and the first nights of 8 new play at the Franeais, at the Gym- nase, or at few other of our incemparable theaters, writes French woman to Oscar Wilde, are always the occasions where may best be seen the last expression of that Pari- sian taste in dress which must sway
 that of all the fashionable civilized world.
 The wedding troassaux of Mile. de Wendell, now Duchess de Mailly, of Mile. Ocgague, now Mme Escalant, both made by Worth, displayed all that the hand eff maste may
 impart of character of delicacy and purity
 in line and color to the style of dress of to-
 day. The wedding dress of the young Duch-
 ess de Mailly was model of picturesque
 simplicity A touch of medieval grace did
 not ill become the bridal apparel of lady belonging to sf the oldest families of France. This dress was of white lace; the bodice laced at the back, was draped with a hchu of Aechlia lace, the skirt falling in long sweeping folds formed train; it was gather ed up on one side with puff in the quaint Agnes Sorel style over an underskirt mount ed in deep flat pleats. A large cluster of orange blossoms apparently kept the puff in it's place; @ smaller cluster was piuned at the throat.
 The dress worn by the young fancee on the evening of signing the contract de mar riage was pure white touched with delicate tint of gold introduced here and there. This
 pretty dress was of white faille; panels of white brocade edged with gold were placed on each side of the skirt, garlanded with
 white roses and gold foliage. Clouds of
 white crape fell the front, through
 which circled twists of white satin. The low
 bodice, yelled with crape was trimmed like
 wise with these circling twists of satin, the
 sheen of which seemed all the more bril-
 liant for the drifting vapor of crape with
 which it mingled.
