The First Entertainment of tho Augsburg
League Meets With Approval.

The First Entertainment of tho Augsburg
League Meets with Approval.
To those who have literary and must
cal tastes the entertainment given for
the benefit of the Augsburg League, of
st. Marks Lutheran Church, last night
was indeed treat. Long before the
hour for the exercises to begin had ar
rived the chapel of the church was
filled to its utmost capacity. The ladies'
alone were almost enough in number to
fill every seat, while hundreds of men
occupied every available inch in the
aisles.
When o'clock arrived Rev. Oliver C.
Miller requested the ushers to close the
doors, as every possible seat had al
ready been taken, and thus many who
reached the entrance were deprived of
hearing.
Promptly at o'clock Rev. Oliver c.
Miller, tae pastor, mounted the rostrum
and in few well-chosen words bade
everybody welcome. After he took his
seat the following programme was car
ried out:
PART FIRST.

be It's future is bright indeed.
The Meeting at tho First Baptist Church.
There was another crowded house
last night and much spiritual interest
was manifested. The sermon was from
the text, Gas I live, saith the Lord God
have no pleasure in the death of the
wicked. Turn ye, turn ye, for why will
ye die?" Evangelist Harrison seems to
preach with increasing power and earn
estness, and the leaven of tho Gospel
seems to be working upon the hearts OF
the unsaved. The meeting at II o'clock
was we'll attended and greatly enjoyed.
There will be no meet ting to-day or to-

ORouke and Charlie Norton. the back o rs
of George Dixon and Billy Plimmer,
met in the Police Gazette's Office this
AFTERNOON and attempted to arrange a
finish fight between the two leather
weights, but without avail. The two
fighters themselves, who were present,
took no part in the preliminaries, but
sat in different corners of the Office and
quitely sized each other up.
Norton proposed that the two lads
should weigh lib pounds at the ring
side on the night Of the fight O'Rouke
demurred ana suggested that the weigh.
in at those figures should be at 8 o'clock
in the afternoon of the fight. Neither
side would alter it's position and the
proposed finish fight was abandoned.
Finally it was agreed to give scienti-
fic boxing bout Of six rounds for points,
the date to be selected later and the
men to weigh not over 1is pounds.

From 1884 to 'SS, during the time of

tour abroad not returning to America
until after the no mination of Mr. Harri-
Eison.
Whom Mr.. Blaine returned to Washing,
Bon in the fall of 1888, buoyant in mind
after declining the use Of his ma ME as the
candidate for President and ready to as
sumo the premiership of the Cabinet Of
President Harrison, he had II happy fami.
ly about him. The shadow upon his do
mestic felicity was the domestic trouble
of his youngest son, who. since the days
he wore knickcrbockcrs and kits was

Mr. Blaine took up the work Of the State
