Bishop Wilson at demonstration

A large audience assembled Friday
evening to hear this great preacher.
His text was 81. Matthew j. q " And
thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he
shall save his people from their sins.
His elaboration was clear, strong, and
concise. HIS description of sin IVES
searching. graphic, appalling. His nm
folding of Christ's power to save from
sin was thrilling. The sermon abounded
in passages OF strong thought and ylgo-
rous eloquence At its close Rev. Alr.
Raw invited any one who wished to be
saved from SIN to approach the chancel.
One Young man presented himself IN
confession and during the after-serylce
was happily converted.
DR.. Wilson is one OF the ablest preach
ers in the Southern College OF Bishops.
His missionary travels in Europe. Asia,
Africn, and South America afford him
vast store Of illustration, which he uses
with marked effect.
He will preach in this church again
this Sunday at 7:30 p. NJ.

Manchester Lodge, No. II. Ancient
Free and Accepted Masons, met for the
first time last night in the new Masonic
Temple. The attendance was very large
including number of prominent MA
sons from Richmond lodges.
For TO- years this lodge has held ita
meetings in the old "asll on rim
street, and while it was with great
Measure that the members moved into
their handsome new quarters, 1t was also
with feelings OF regret at parting WIN
the old home where so many happy and
Joyous occasions had been spent.
The new lodge-room has been fitted
I'D in splendid style. A handsome mo-
quette carpet adorns the floor, whlle
beautiful settees are conveniently ar
ranged in the apartments. The wall
paperiDg shows exquisite taste and IN
candescent lights illuminate the pretty
surroundings.
Worshipiul W. T. Williamson pre-
sided. and considerable routine business
pertnining to the lodge was transacted.
There we're two new entries as appren-
tees and one Master Mason was re-
ceiyed into the craft.
After the business meeting was over
the party adjourned to the banquet hall
on the floor below, where splendid cot
lation had been spread. The elegant re-
freshments we're heartily enjoyed. The
visiting Masons compllmented the Man.

"TA-RA.RA BOoM-DE-AY,"
With Mrs. Carter and Lottie Col
Inns and "Niss HelYett."

With Mrs. Carter and Lottie Col
Inns and "Miss Helyett."
"Miss Helyett," with Louise Carter as
the Quaker Maid. and Miss Lottie Col
Inns and her original ''Ta-ra-ra Boom
de-ay'' interpolated in the second act,
will be the double attraction at the Met
ropolitan for the last half of the coming
week. TO the multitude who welcome
light comedy or comic opera as diver
sion "Miss Helyett." with its long rec
ord of successes elsewhere, in this coun-
try and Europe, should prove attractive.
There is airy and catchy music by Ed
ward Audran, perhaps the most popular
composer of gay melodies; there is
witty comedy by David Balasco, whose
latest play, "Tne Girl l Left Behind
Me-" is making such a stir in New
York. There is bright establishment
of scenery and costumes, with pretty
girls. agile dancers, and clever Gomez
dams aud singers. The theme is move
and piquant. Miss Helyett is coy,
but coquettsh little Quaker maid
travelling in Spain with her eccen-
trio father, who rules her con-
duct by his code of droll maXims.
Her mountain side ml5adventure and
the confession and perplexities which
follow afford diversion. Miss Helyett'
ran for over LOO nights in Paris, 465 in
London. and has been played without
interruption in this country for nfteen
months, including the notable all sum
mer run in Chicago. It's three acts have
been likened to so many bottles Of cham
payne, full of snap, sparkle and the
etfervesence of the choicest vintage.
Miss Lottie Collins will be the appel
izing cocktail for the feast of frolic,
music and merrimeDt to be served by
Mrs Carter and her apociales. among
whom are Mark Smith. j. w. Herbert,
George Lydlng, r. A. March, n. S.
Bumham, Fanny Hall, Lolita Nicols-
FurSt.
Mrs. Carter as the demure, gray
gowned Quaker maiden has been very
successful. There is said TO be unique
art in her portrayal OF Warm-blooded
little Helyett, prim and decorus, but
full of coqetry and mischief.
Miss Lottie Collins created "Ia-ra-ra-
Boom-de-Ay." She has not suffered
from the avalanche of limitations which
preceded her coming to these shores.
London lost Its head over her. Sudden
ly her income jumped up to a higher
figure than a prime minister. Even
grand old Gladstone smiled at her ex-
uberant antics, and Labouchere, in
writing of her, forgot for once to be cyl.
ical Society was always in the stalls
when her turn came. Her adventure in
quarantine sent her on her way in this
country figure of conspicuous and
curious interest. 1t is amazing what
throngs have everywhere been attracted
by her-New York, Chicago, Boston,
Philadelphia, Washington, Baltimore.
Pittsburg, Neutrality-suspicious. the
same packed houses and the verdict
that there was something about her and
her rendering of the crazy dItty at once
fascinating and distinctive.

THE GREAT MAGICIAN.
Hermann the Opening Attraction
1.-THE METROPOLITAN.

Hermann the Opening Attraction
at the Metropolitan.
Magician Hermann, the wonder and
delight of young folks and an ever
popular amuser of the people, will APP
pear at the METROPOLITAN opera house,
opening tonight and remaining until
Wednesday evening; a Wednesday
matinee will be given.
He will, as usual, be assisted by Nine.
Hermann. Hermann is without rival
i'll his line of entertainment, and those
who like to be made to believe What
they know is impossible and to have
their sense OF sight contradict their
common sense, will find an evening
spent under the magic influence of the
conjurer's wand very pleasant one.
1t means more to be a successful ma
gicIan now than in the days of Blitz and
Anderson. The public knows too much
to be easily puzzled, and schoolboys do
tricks that were thought wonderful
decade ago. Hermann keeps ahead
of the procession, and delighted
thousands are still guessing. 1t is
not very many years ago that the
very best magicians used so carry all
their apparatus and devices i'll one

one big baggage car. He has six
skilled artisans and mechanics to help
him. Hermann is great inventor of
illusions, and his latest mystery, the
Chinese puzzle, called "Yakoyo," in
which Monaghan is transferred from
one hanging cabinet or pagoda to an
other, without the manipulation of a
curtain or the lowering Of light, is a
mystery worthy of the name. The pro-
gramme for the coming engagement
will be varied and interesting. Two
parts will be devoted to miscellaneous
magic. Another part is the Chinese
mystery. A half-hour will be set aside
for an expose of spiritualism. and all
the feats which were long unfathomed
will be performed. A beautiful picture
will be the hypnotizing of Nine. Herr
mann, and while she is suspended in
mldair, seemingly unsupported, the
magician will change the pose and cos
tunes OF his lovely mate, making a Sc
ries of tableauX to behold.
At the matinee Wednesday a pro-
gramme of unusual interest to ladies
and children has been prepared.
