Senator Gray's Plan

Doring his logical speech against tho forcc bill
in the enato o. Saturday, Mr. Gray, OF Delaware
was asked by Senator Evarts to give the Senate
some notion of what method no would provide r
verifying registration.
MIR. Gray--That question is 20. vo7y hard to
answer. Ny method would be to trust che people
Of tho Sts'e as they have been trusted for one
hundred ye4rs OF our history. NJ method would
be tn insti and encourage confidence IN the CO.
pscity Of tho people to manage and control their
own sfsirs, including tho management aud con-
troll of thei. own elections. Ny method would be
not only to refuse to pass the measure now before
the Senate but to wipe from our statue book the
whoe chapter concerning tho elective franchise.

Mr. Grly-And have no law to interfere with

ODE SUN DO MOVE" PREACHER.

Rev. John Jasper, the famous col
ored clergyman ofRichmond, recently
delivered his celebrated sermon, "De
Sun Do Move" for the 175th time
Mr. Jasper was born in Virginia of
slave parents. In 1910 he began to
preach, although he could only spell
the simplest words He at once be-
came famous and often went on long
preaching tours, his master, for he
was then slave, receiving from
those engaging him the sum of 81 a
day. When he became free at the
close of the war, he had just IS cents
and owed So He is now worth
several thousand dollars. In 1867
he organized his present chnrch in a
little wooden shanty with nine mem
bers. 1t has grown in strength and
numbers until now it has a member
ship of 1000 and a handsome church
building. Mr.. Jasper is famous as a
baptizer, having once baptized 300
candidates in an hour He is very
influential among the less intelligent
colored people of Richmond

RECENT CHURCH ARCHITECTURE
INBOSTON.

1t is a pretty sight, coming out
through West street or Temple Place,
Just after a winter sunset, to look off
to the west across the Common.
The bare limbs of the trees form a
network against the glowing evening
sky, and behind this network rise in
the distant background the towers
and spires of the Back Bay churches.
These towers and spires are all the
more beautiful in the glimpse had of
them from this point, or as one
walks along the path on the Com
mon toward the old elm enclosure,
because they are pierced with open
ings The silhouette is not merely of
the outer outline. The arches Of the
belfry space let through the same yell
low light; and SO sharp is the con-
trast between the dark stones and
the luminous atmosphere behind, that
every feature of the design which can
enter into the profile is marked out
with great distinctness Farthest
toward the Charles river rises the
spire of the First church. A little
distance toward the south comes the
medieval, square-topped tower of
the First Baptist, with its low-pitch-
ed, pyramidal roof; and then still
to the southwark the graceful pin
nacled shaft of the Central church,
and the Italian campanile of the New
Old South. A mile away, Trinity
retreats little behind the Arlington
street steeple, but detaches itself as
one moves. Greatest of all, in some
respects, it still does not contribute
SO much to this evening glimpse west
= ward as the higher and more open
towers and spires.
The style of the Central church has
a suggestion of that so beautifully
and deliberately illustrated by Sails
bury Cathedral in England Sails
bury is a great church, complex in
pan us compared WITH tn1S, Tor 1t
has two transepts and a terminal
chapel, and covers a large area of
ground. Between church and church
as a whole there could be no COM
parisOn, but in minor ways the Bos-
ton example may fairly be claimed to
resemble the much-adnired English
one. AS a whole it is executed with
an even completeness. The side upon
the small passage way is as perfectly
rendered as the side upon Newbury
street, and one may fairly regret that
it is not isolated in the midst of a
broad green, as Salisbury is, where
all the varying combinations of the
lines of nave, tranSepts, and spire, so
pleasing to the eye, could be fully APP
preciated. No one would, | think,
feel that any undue comparative val
lie was assigned to this spire in say
ing that it is the most beautiful Goth
&c spire at present standing in the city.
