giving and praise, to be kept and OBJ
served by all the people of our land.
On that day let us forego our ordinary
work and employments and assemble in
our usual places of worship where we
may recall what God has done for us,
and where from grateful hearts our uAi-
leu ulOuIeS Vi pIIlSe anu sony MAY

of friends lend cheer and enjoyment to
the day and let generous gifts of chart

AGRARIAN PARTY CONGRESS.

Iney Chser Emperor William and He
Urges Support OF Military Bill.
BERLIN, Feb. 22.-At the meeting Of the
agricultural congress the leader of the
Agrarian party in the reichstag presided
over the congress. Be fore delivering his
opening address he called upon the assem-
olage to give three cheers for Emperor
william and the other German sovereigns.
Ihey were given with . will amid much
enthusiasm. The Prussian minister of
agriculture addressed the congress and
urged the supporters Of the principles ad-
vocated by the Aerarian party to continue
:no organize. Nearly 1000 delegates are
In attendance.
The emperor received deputations from
the Eastern provinces this afternoon. He
SAID he was gratified by the associations
bringing their complaints directly to the
father OF their country" He never would
rest content until he had gotten the pro-
vincial courts in proper working order, 50
justice would be impartially and expedi-
tiously administered. He earnestly de-
sired to relieve the agricultural land
owners of their cares and the difficulties
which surrounded their occupation, but
he felt that many of the methods popu-
larry approved for the attainment of this
end only obscured the goal and retarded
progress toward 1t. In the first place, the
preservation Of peace was q necessary con-
dition to agricultural progress. and the
agrarian party might assist materially in
maintaining peace by voting for the mill
tary bill now before the reichstag.

bers of the Denman Thompson "Old

Washington Club at its rooms in the Smith
block yesterday evening. The entertain
ment proved to be q most successful
one, and tho fact that so enjoyable
an affair could be gotten up at SO short

committee. About fifty of the members
OF the club were in attendance, and the

tered into the spirit of the occasion con-
tributed largely to the success Of the even
ing.
There was an utter absence of oil for
mality, and every one looked and acted as
If he were thoroughly at home and enjoy
ing himself to the extent of his capacity.
Songs, stories and Rotations consti-
tuted the entertainment, and were
applauded to the echo Solos, duets and
concerted pieces were admirably rendered
by the members Of the company who
were present. and Mr.. Boyd's dialect
stories and Mr.. Moynihan's recitals were
enthusiastically received by the audience
M Ierial pleasures were added to those of
music and recitation in the form of q light
lunch. punch and cigars, and the atten-
ton bestowed upon them left no doubt as
to their welcome.
