PLEASANT PERFORMANCES.
Christ Church Choir Successful
as Entertainers.


The choir of Christ church gave a
minstrel entertainment last night in the
guild house. The heavy rain of the
early evening doubtless was the cause
for more not being present. There was
goodly company in attendance, how
ever, and a very agreeable entertain
ment was given. The choir boys we're
attired in comic suits of bright colors.
The ladies of the church provided
light refreshments from booths
that were decorated in attractive
style. The programme embraced comic
as we'll as serious features. The choir
attracted much attention and seemed TO
afford abundance of amusement by
clever acting in several features. The
choruses without other parts would
have made a satisfactory entertainment
alone. The other paris of the pro-
gramme were we'll presented. Aside
from the choruses there were songs by
James Graham, H. E. George, Percy
Cotton. S. A. Appleton, Fritz Dorr, Mrs.
Fremont, r. c. Wood and D. W. Van
Vleck.
R. c. Wood and Lucius Anderson
rendered banjo duet. John Marshall
and D. w. Van Week rendered man
doliD and guitar duet. A quartette
composed of II. E. George, D. W. Van
Week and S. and A Appleton sang
"Old Kentucky and other songs.
Many of the solos were supported by
choruses. The entertainment was not
only success in point of artistic merit,
but was also social event.

Hold a Session at Labor Hall-Go
to Minneapolis.
Eugene V. Debs, president of the
American Railway union, accompanied
by Vice President Howard, appeared
here yesterday morning from Chicago.
During the forenoon they were engaged
for several hours at Labor hall, talking
over matters. Both these officers agree
in the main with the construction of the
agreement as published yesterday, only
they consider that general office ell
ployes should have been included in
the general restoration.
The meeting at Labor hall was. a
pleasant one, to judge by all reports.
At O'Clock Messrs. De5s and Howard
went to Minneapolis, where it had been
arranged to have another meeting with
the arbitration committee.
Late last night MeSsrS. Debs. Howard,
Hogan and Goodwin returned from
Minneapolis. They were seen at the
Sherman house, and there said that
everything was now, they believed, sat.
isfactoriIy adjusted.
The officers of the American Railway
union will leave tonight. Mir. Debs
goes to Chicago. Mr.. Howard to Will
mington. Del; Mr.. Rogers to st. Louis,
Mr.. Goodwin to Southern Pacific ter
riiory and Mr.. Hogan out on the North
ern Pacific. These men are actively
working, and Mr.. Howard stated that
in the unions Chicago office apDlica-
tons for membership at the rate of over
1000 per day were pouring in.
In speaking of the Minneapolis
conference yesterday. MIR. Debs said:
I'VE had very pleasant day indeed.
President j. j. Hill and President Sam
uel Hill were there, and we had ex-
pressions of their good will, and we

MAY COLONIAL FETE
a Success Notwithstanding the
Severe Storm.


Severe Storm.
Such elaborate preparations had been
made tor the colonial ''fete'' that it
seemed too bad to postpone the enter
tainment. and Notwithstanding the bad
weather of last night goodly number
of people filled the beautifully appoint
ed rooms at the residence of r.. l..
Schurmeier on Crocus hill, where the
fete was held.
Music and the pleasant time antici-
plted on the lawn was, of course. i'm
possible. but the weather did not pre-
vent the young people from dancing
inside after the programme had been
disposed of.
BY far the prettiest things of the kind
that have been seen here were the two
dances. the shepherdess and the May
pole. The former was managed by
Miss Newport and the Dresden shep-
heidesses looked as much like the ex-
quisite china as it was possible to make
them. Many novel and pretty figures
were introduced, which in point of exc
cution were perfect. The ladies who
danced were Mrs. John W. Merriam,
Mrs. Victor Robertson, Mrs. f. w. M.
Cutcheon. Mrs. J. P. Elmer, Miss New
port. Miss Maude Taylor. Miss Gotzian
and Miss LamDorn.
The May pole dance. which was con-
Quoted by Miss Sturgis, was also beauti.
fully done by twelve young ladies':
Misses Margaret Ruff, Margaret Hall,
Pope. Day, Wheelock. Hancock, Simp-
son. Warner. Blakely, Upham, Bass
and Grace Upham.
The musical numbers were contrib
uted by Miss Maconda, of the Grand
English Opera company, who sang three
numbers. "TEe Pearl of BRAZIL" "A
Slumber Song" by Reese. and Titles
de CodeZ"
FindIey Shepard and Mrs. Tarbox also
contributed several numbers. Mr..
The ladies who served ices and poured
coffee. as we'll as tea, we're: Mrs. w. K.
Merri I'M, who appeared as Martha
Washington, and in blue brocad ed
gown. with pale blue plumes in her
hair. aud powder and patches; Mrs.
Schurmeier,i in lavender and white lace:
Mrs. Selmes, in white satin: Mrs.
Barnum, i'll pink brocade; Mrs.
McVeagh. gray brocade, with
pink satin sleeves and embroidered
null front; Mrs. Furness, blue satin
Letticoat, with black aud white brocade
tram; Mrs. Peet wore typical colonial
costume of co!ored silk, trimmed with
black lace and shoulder cape. Pow
dered hair and patches completed the
make up of all these ladies, which, in
most instances, was very quaint.
The beneiciaries of the entertainment
are the Milford House and st. Johns
Guild; ana 1t was estimated that the
sum netted was in the neighborhood of

There Will now be no cause for any
further misunderstanding between
President Hill and his employees. The
matter was settled last night by Presi-
dent Hill signing with the American
Railway union officials the details of the
arbitration as decided upon and found
by the committee of arbitration Mon-
day. Yesterday afternoon at 2:30 the
committee of thirty. President Debs
and Vice President Howard met with
the members of the arbitration commit
tee at the Commercial club, Minneap-
oils. The meeting was secret one and
was presided over by Chairman Pills
bury.
There was but one object, and that
was reached. The details of the arbi-
tratlon were reduced to writing and, as
stated above, the signatures of the i'll
terested parties were affixed. This
ends all remaining disagreements. Mr..
Hill has agreed to everything demanded
by the committee Oil arbitration.
Last night the committee on arbitra-
ton, President Hill and the two Ameri-
can Railway union men, Messrs. How
ard and Debs. banqueted at the Com
mercial club. Minneapolis. They were
in the best of humor. and heartily glad
that the trouble was over. Among 9TH
erS present was Samuel Hill. OF the

purchased at GO to 100 to 1. Mr. Foster
resides at COS Dayton avenue.
This is great piece of luck for Mr..
Foster, aud st. Paul can share in his
good fortune. as it can now boast of a
horse that has made the fastest time
ever made in any of the Brooklyn handi-
caps.
Mr.. Foster shipped DR.. Rice to st.
Louis in December. where he was
wintered. The second week in April
DIR. Rice was sent Oh to Sheepshead
Bay, from which latter place he was
taken to Grayesend, where he was
made ready for the phenomenal race of
yesterday. Before Mr.. Foster left ST.
Paul he told his mother that he felt
first prize. The event of yesterday
proves hun good prophet. He has
sent for his mother and other members
of the family to visit him in Brooklyn,
and they will leave st. Paul Thursday.
DIR. Rice was formerly owned by
Gideon IL Daily, of New York, and MIR.
Foster purchased him last June for
$1,000. Shortly after Mr. Foster pur-
chased him he won the Wlthers stakes
at Morris Park, making his mile over
muddy track in | AZ. The stakes were
over S9,UUU. AFTER proving winner
here his former owners offered $4,000
for him, which was promptly refused.
He was next entered III the Omnibus
stakes, where he was beaten by head
by Comanche.
In appearance DR.. Rice is typical
racer. He Is sorrel in color, and is
most magnificent specimen of horse
flesh.
Ed Orth, of Minneapolis, was also a
heavy winner, having bought Dr.. Rice
freely in the winter books at long odds.
Ills winnings will foot up over $50. 600.
Michael Shelly. well-known turf spec
ulator of minneapolis. won about $1,000,
and John Flanuigan, Col. Tanner and
Hank Seelye also won several hundred
dollars each.
1t was reported late last night that
Jack Crooks, of the Minneapolis Base
Ball club, had won $4,000.

The board of aldermen, assembly,
and then the joint bodies, known as the
common council, held sessions last
evening. and after three hours, during
which the Republican members showed
their strength and partisanship, the
vote cast at the recent election was
eanVassed. The canvass made no
change in the result as announced ten
days ago Ill the GLOBE; but. by having
the majority in both branches of the
council the Republicans passed on
tile constitutlonality of that section
of the charter relating to the qualifica-
tions of asselnblymen as to residence,
and declared seated the nine members
receiving the highest number of votes.
This question of the unconstitutionalIty
of the law was arrived at owing to the
fact that if City Attorney Chamberlain
and the members of the Republican city
committee had held otherwise the
assembly would have stood six Demo
Gratis to three Republicans. Such
state of affairs was not to be tolerated
for moment. and having a working
majority in both bodies. the Republicans
carried the'poiht, at least for the pres,
ent.
An effort was made by the Democrats
to ble certificates CT nomination and
residence with the bodies in order to
facilitate the getting of the question as.
to the construction of the disputed sec
ton before the court at an early date.
This. however, was somewhat OF fail.
ure, for acting on the principle laid
down by the Louisiana returning board.
the council took cogniZance of what
would best suit the interests of the Re-
publican party and refused everything
that was fair and reasonable.
1t was stated on the floor of the coun-
ell by Attorney John S. Ives, who
represented the Democratic city c,m-
mttee, that never before had any
legislative body refused to receive and
file sworn affidavits offered on any
matter In dispute, but each of the
Republican members had been duly
instructed as to what line he must
pursue. and he followed his instructions
religiousIy. although at one time Aid.
