MRS. MILLER's SONG RECITAL
A unique entertainment was given In the
west parlor OF the Propylaum. Mrs. En-.
rique e. Miller invited about two hundred
friends to o song recital. and with the as
sistance Of Mr.. Maurice Butler. basso. and
Prof. II. j. Schumacher, pianist. gave q
most delightful evening of choice music.
On the fret Leaf OF the programme was q
medallion head of Mrs. Miller's beautiful
little son and on the second and third
pages the selections. Mrs. Miller has long
been acknowledged as oAe of the finest
sopranos In the city. and during the past
winter she has been In New York studying
with Agramonte. Last evening Mrs. Miller
chose her numbers with a view to variety.
and in their presentation showed q re-
source which proved her tho artist
In any line Of concert work. For the
Gounod's "Reine de Saba" Brahmsa mo.
s. from the Fair Msgelone." and Gomez's
Scene T., Ballata ii Guarany." There was
o breadth and power as well as sweetness
and purity of tone. The difficult passages
she accomplished with grace and ease. and
there was q nobility Of phrasing which was
entirely adequate to the theme of the COM
poser. Nor was Mrs. Miller at her best in
the heavier songs. The "N'Importe" writ
ten by Mr.. Schumacher and dedicated to
Mrs. Miller was q dainty. chaste bit of
composition, we'll given. and the Cradle
Song" and Wherefore" by Tschai-
kowsky. Winds in the Trees" by Goring
Thomas and The Land of the Leal," by
Arthur toote. showed the singer so be
equally at homo in selections of q widely
different styie. In each Mrs. Miller gave
much pleasure, and her merit was ac-
knowiedged by frequent manifestation OF
enjoyment. Mr.. Buffers msgnidcent bass
voice was heard to advantage in the old
Roman Drinking Song" Oxenford. and
Shelley's new song. Ever Thine" His
voice eminds one of q great organ OF I'M
limited power. and the richness and pre-
cisioD of bis tones was O treat to hear. MT.
Schumacher is one of the city's musicians
too seldom heard IN public. AS q composer
he is possessed of q delicate, re tined
nature, which shows itself in har-
monious. sympathetic strains, which hs
the subjects he chooses for them. Last
evening he played two of his own, Long
ing' and forgiveness" giving them that
grace of touch and tenderness OF expression
which best brought out their meaning.
Mr.. William Under and Mr.. Samuel Carey
acted as ushers in seating the company in
the psrlor. which was tastefully adorned
with palms, ferns and scarlet tulips.

THE CHARGES against Prof. BRIGGS are:
/. Teaching that reason is fountain of
divine authority. 2. Teaching that the
church is another such fountain. apart
from the Scriptures. 3. Teaching that
errors may have existed in the original
text of the Bible. 4. Teaching that
many OF the Old Testament predictions
have been reversed by history. 8. Teach
ing that MOSES is not the author of the
Pentateuch. 6. Teaching that ISAIAH is
not the author of half the book that bears
his name. Z. Teaching that redemption
extends to the world to come in the case
OF many who die in sin. s. Teaching
that sanctifcation is not complete at
death. The specifications are extracts
from the inaugural address of Prof
BRIGGS on the occasion of his induction
into the chair OF biblical theology in the
Union Theological Seminary, January
20, 1891, and for which alleged heresies he
was tried and acquitted by the New York
Presbytery.

Signs OF Distress.

The purpose of the 1'fdbuae's recent en-
deavors is disclosed in its latest chuckle
of delight over the anticipated effects of
its efforts. 1t says:
''But statehood is not here quite yet.
There are great mauy who were adyo-
eating statehood few months ago who
are very reserved on that question now,
and perhaps statehood for Utah is not
nearly SO near as some gentlemen be-
lieve''
So that is the aim and intent and an
linus of all these pretended disclosures of
"sporadic" cases of men alleged to be not
living within the law. DUST as those
"outside bIackguards'' OF papers de-
clared. 1t is not any particular regard
for morals, public or private, that
prompted the attacks. 1t is a scare
against statehood that was contemplated
in making them.
We are afraid our contemporary will
gain but cold comfort from it's self-con-
gratulations. No doubt many persons
who plainly expressed their opinions
about statehood when Congress was in
session and something could be done, are
very quiet and reserved - about it now.
But there is another consideration, which
is not so satisfactory to our neighbor and
which helps to make it SO vicious and
that is. that many persons who were not
only reserved but some of them very out
spoken in opposition to statehood a short
time ago, are now unreservedly in favor
OF it. That is an undeniable fact.
1t is always easy to tell when our neigh
Dor gets the worst OF bout. 1t calls
names, rants and wanders and resorts to
depths where it knows decent adversary
will not follow. But anger is not argu-
ment and the HERALD finds nothing but
wrath in the 7riblme'S latest attempts to
answer the facts and reasons we have pre-
sented.

WHATEVER MAY be said of the awk-
wardness of scion of royalty being en-
tertained by republican government, it
seems unquestionabIe that the Infanta
EULALrE' s tact and grace of manner have
captivated all the Americans who have
seen her. At the New York bali she dis
approved of the snobbery that proposed
to have the royal party sup in room
separate from the rest of the guests, and
in various captivating ways has shown a
gracious disposition. Women don't all
lose their smartness by occupying ele-
waited positions.

Sunday and the Fair.


tbs reported that last Sunday at Chi
cage there were thirteen thousand Wis
itors to the base bail grounds to see a
toughly contested game. The crowd was
SO great that the sale of tickets had to be
stopped before the contest was COM
menced.
This was one of the consequences of
closing the Worlds Fair on that day.
Which would have been the worst, look
ing quietly at the works of art and the
products of nature, choice specimens
educational in their character and ele-
waiting in the lessons they bear, gathered
in that great exposition of the worlds
excellencies, or pushing and shouting
and betting and contending over ball
match on the Sabbath day.?
It may be said that neither was the
right thing and that one does not justify
the other. That may be true, but tout
of two evils, y supposing both are evil, is
it not ''better to choose the Ieast?"
If people will not go to church-ard no
rigorous rules against recreations will
compel thousands of them to go-is it not
far better that they should spend leisure
time at the exposition than in the various
places of resort that attract so many folks
in Chicago and that will allure multi
tude to evil?
This world must be viewed as it is, not
as people who think themselves superior
to the majority would like it to be. A
city must be governed with view to the
will of its citizens, not to promote the
notions of comparatively few individ-
uals. Chicago contains many worthy re-
ligious people. There are great many
others who are not religiously inclined
Must the minority rule or should the
masses of the people receive some consid-
Grafton?
Sunday as day of rest from labor, a
respite from the strain of the week, is
wise arrangement apart from any theo-
logical consideration. The laws and or
dinances enacted to preserve it should be
maintained. But they need not be made
obnoxious to anything that is orderly and
peaceful and that invades no man.
rights. And it is not necessary that Sun
day regulations should be enforced solely
with view to the support of a religious
idea with which the state should not be
in any way Identified.
The adage about "straining at gnat
and swallowing camel - is peculiarly
applicable to the fanaticism of the ex-
IRENE Sabbatarians, who forget the views
of the illustrious founder of the religion
which they profess, who shocked their
predecessors by his freedom from Excess
sive Sabbath trammels and declared that
the day was made for man and not man
for the day. The better way to win the
undevotional from low pursuits on Sun
dayis to open the way to higher enjoy
ments, and ii they will not attend church
give them a chance to go where their
minds may be led to contemplate that
which elevates and improves. Who
knows that this will not prove step to-
wards the pinnacle which the pious feel
confident they themselves have reached.

VERY DIFFERENT in tone from the re-
cent scandalous tale about AUGUSTA
VICTORIA of Germany is the story THE
HERALD prints this morning relative to
the home life of the empress. This arti-
Gle, by its plain narrative of the every
day duties of the noble old lady, silently
refutes any charge that could be brought
against her character, and is so circum-
stantiaI and natural that it is its own YER
ihcation. The scandal referred to is
doubtless the invention of sensation
monger, based upon the thinnest foun-
dation of TACT.

and the directors of this seminary, sol
EMMY and sincerely receive and adopt the
Westminster Confession of faith as con-
tanning the system OF doctrine taught in
the Holy Scriptures"
DR.. BRIGGS may be nearer the truth
than this declaration and the Westmin-
ster Confession are, when he declares
that 'the church and human reason" as
well as the scriptures are to be taken as
guides to faith and practice, but what be-
comes of his solemn obligation to hold to
the contrary? He teaches the probability
of what is called culture probation
and talks of 'sthe bugbear OF judgment
Immediately after DEATH" And these are
ideas totally at varience with the West
minister Confession.
If DR.. BRIGGS can prove that he has
taught and does not teach anything con-
trary to the settled doctrines of the church
OF which he is minister, he will be en-
titled to acquittal on the charge of hel-
esy. II 1t is proven that his expressed
views are at variance with that creed and
he still holds to them. he must be con-
victed. What follows? Either the church
must change its principles, or he must
cease to be its minister. That is the only
consistent view to take of the matter.
Tolerance is all right. Bigotry is all
wrong. But nobody wants to be intoler-
ant to DR.. BRIGGS unless it might be a
few extreme sectaries. He can air his
views by tongue aud pen without let or
hindrance. But he cannot do that as the
representative of creed that he opposes,
nor of church whose doctrinal rules he
violates. And it seems unreasonable that
any man should want to hold himself up
as the promulgater of tenets that he repu-
dates, and wear sacerdotal robes that he
has grown out of. DR.. BRIGGS appears to
be too big man for the Presbyterian pull
pit. If so, why should he not go where
there is room for his brain and space for
his further advancement?

WEST EARL township OF Pennsylvania

WEST EARL township OF Pennsylvania,
near Lancaster, is under siege of fieas.
The pest has taken possession of a great
number of residences, and, even outside
of these, people are suspicious OF one
another and their lives are miserable.
Burnt sulphur does not seem to kill
them, and the board of health declares
it has no jurisdiction in the case. The
afflicted inhabitants are living in tents
and out houses and can do nothing but
scratch.
