In the evening DR.. Cunningham de-
livered a most able discussion on the
subject "A HeavenWard Look for the
Closing Year" The text was taken
from John 17:1. These words spake
Jesus and lifted up his eyes 10 Heaven"
In concluding his sermon he said:
LET us not forget the practical bear
ing OF this subject upon our everyday
life. The nearer we live to heaven,
the more genial and gracious will be
our intercourse with men; the more In
tense and vivid our realization OF eternal
things. the more earnest and patient,
and self denying our devotion 10 pres
ent duty.
With the closing year, let US lit our
eyes to heaven. Let Us cry, Father OF
Mercies, give US faith TO trust Thee Ter
the future" And with our eyes lifted
to heaven, we will bid farewell TO the
old year Of 1894, and We will welcome
the dawning of the new year 1895. May
IL be to this church, TO these house,
holds, TO each soul 10 this congregation,
a year Of blessing, year OF grace, a
year OF the right hand OF Almighty.

wILFRED CLARKE.

The Philadelphia INQUIRER says OF
Wilfred Clarke, the eminent yong
comedian who will appear at the
Opera House Tuesday and Wednesday
evenings and New Years matinee: 10
no way does Mr. Clarke show bis arts
tic sense Oeeer than in the air OF re-
serve with which be invests the part OF
Major Wellington De Boots. He con
vuIsed the house because he appeared
unconscious OF any effort to be funny,
and that he succeeded could not be
doubted in the lace of the enthusiastic
applause that was most layishly be-
slowed. Pralsing Mr. Clarke is but 10
add 10 the credit which is due the other
members of the cast, each OF whom
more than fulfilled every requirement.
THE NEW PAUL KAUvAR."
There has been great number Of
startling effects introduced 10 the
drama OF late years, as realism seems To
be the theater-goers' present want; so
Manager Eugene Robinson, one OF the
foremost promoters OF this elias OF en-
tertainment promises TO outclass any
preyious attempt in realistic fleets In
his new verson OF "Paul KauVar, ="
which comes to the Opera House next
Wed nesdoy night, January 4. The
late Steele MacRs7e, who was, without
doubt, our foremost Am rlcan dram
alist, rewrote the play, cal ing II "The
New Paul X uvar," and ha' invested
the new version with a series OF me-
chanics contrivaDces that, 1t Is said,
will revolutionize the dramatic age.

A FLAG OF TRUCE.

Walter Sanford's greatest production,
"a Flag OF Truce" will be the Grand
Opera House attraction the first three
nights Of this week, Including New
Years and Wednesday matinees. The
story Is cleverly told, and is enacted by
good company. The scenic effects
are above the ordinary. The stone
quarry scene, with its steam drills and
actual stone, is one Of the most realistic
pieces OF stage mechanism ever wit
messed. On the whole "a Flag Of
Truce" is one Of the best attractions
which Manager Feinler has booked for
this season.

NEW YORK. May 1.
The sharp advances of yesterday brought
about some realiZations of profits and the
bears were encouraged here and there to at
tack values, Rumors of large gold exports
tomorrow and on Saturday helped to check
an increase in buoyancy, yet the Market DIS
a whole showed considerable hrmness anu
there were general recoveries IN the late
trading. The most unfortunate feature OF
the situation is the tendency OF foreign
capital to go abroad where interest rates
rule for a little higher basis than mere IL
is not apparent, however, that the move
nent is more than a normal and seasonable
eff1ux, precisely as an inflow of gold is
natural to the autumn. On the other hand
there has been a collapse of the ridiculous
and pernicious 'sCoxey army" movements
and the settlement of the strike on the
Great Northern railway is an augury OF
peaceful adjustment and removal OF othef
pending labor complications. At Washing
ton the indications point to progress In the
direction of a settlement of the tarlH
question and as business has been adjusting
itself to changed condition the chances are
that any bill that will become a law Will De
favorable in it's notifications toward re-
yiyal of industrial activity. So long as
money remains extremely easy the bull
pools will not be embarrassed without
desperate efforts Oh the part of the bears
and in view of the total absence OF selling
pressure from holders it is not likely that
bear raids will be more than temporarily
successful. We are inclined to look for
continuance of irregularity in the specula-
ton, but the Mndertone of the market is
strong and we believe it will do to buy good
stocks on all the reactions.
