CHRIST IN THE PUBLIC PRESS.
Rev. Frank SewalPs Sermon ut the
New Church This Morning.

In his Thanksgiving sermon ON Christ, or
the spiritual forces within. our public life,
the Rev. Frank Sewall of the New Church
thus spoke of the daily newspaper as an
fundamentally of good:
IF hidden and subtle int rior sources of
sin and of wrong are being revealed In
these days, even in the form of scandalous
ard noxious reports of the daily press,
which in past times have been kept secret
from the mass of the people, is it not be-
cause lew the ak of the Divine Judgment
is being laid at the root of the trees that
those which bear evil fruit may be hewn
down? Christs judgments In the world are
executed through human instrumentality
otherwise they would not help to the fur
therinG of mans good; where public action
is needed. public opinion must be formed,
and the press of today is an ever-"ecurring
day of judgment, in which the heart of
cur human society and of our civilization
Is laid bare for good and for evil not that
the All-Seeing may know, but that We, men
and women, may know, and In forming
our judgment for good or for evil Ipcn
what comes to light, in that way form our
judgment upon ourselves! For as We judge
We shall be judged, and as we measure It
will be measured to us again.
In ConCl;Isi On, the speaker said: THE dis
cpline our nation has been going through
in learning taste the sweet uses of adj
vcrSity, not to say of poverty, is perhaps
the most Slgnai experience IN our history
since that of the civil war. Where is there
an American who does not believe that We
are Icing made a wiser and better peo-
pie for it all? Who does not see that ex-
travagance CHECKED, a true appreciation of
the value of money, a better knowledge of
the o,her hair of society, and a more COLI
scientious consideration of the real obliga-
tons of one class toward racother--t hat
these are all Of them things that tend to
give soberness depth, Strength and true
dignity to a nations character. So may
the Divine Providence still regard our be
loved republic, seeing its weaknesses and
its needs even where our pride would blind
our eyes to them, and accomplish that good
for us behind all seeming evils which the
DIVINE Mercy has ever in view"

SIGHT LEAVES WITH THE Sun.
"Night BIindness" n Strange Condf-
ton Resulting From Fatigue.

"Night blindness" Strange Condf-
ton Resulting From Fatigue.
From the Philadelphia Record.
Night blindness is a rare condition, in
which a person toward evening finds that
objects are becoming less and less dis
tinct, and at last he is totally rlind.
This may occur without previous warn
ing and cause great alarm and next
morning he finds that his sight is restored.
This is repeated every night, and at last
the eyes become weak during the day also,
and suffer paralysis of the optic nerve.
This strange affection may be epidemic.
1t has attacked bodies of troops exposed
to great fatigue and the glare OF the suns
rays. Ii there are no symptoms of disease
within the brain recovery generally re-
suits by protection of the eyes from the
light and entire repoSe. 1t is seldom met
with in this country, except among sailors
just returned from the topical regions.
1t is frequent among the natives of some
parts of India, who attribute 1t, as our
own sailors do, to sleeping exposed to the
moonbeams.
The more probable cause of tie affec-
ton is, however, exhaustion of the power
of the retina from over-eXcitement or from
excessive light, so that 1T is rendered in
capable of approaching the weaker slim
ulatlng action of twilight or moonlight
All that suggests itself in the way of treat
memt is to protect the eyes from strong
light during the day. and to prescribe oui-
nine and a nourishing mixed diet.

THE MILITARY DISPLAY.
battery A and the Cavalry Troop Have
Prnctice Marches.

A martial air was added to the observ-
ance of Thanksgiving day in this city by
the practice marches of battery A, light
artillery, and troop A, d. c. N. c.; Mount
Pleasant Drum and Bugle Corps ard the
j. b. Henderson Fife and Drum Corps.
The vicinity of the armory of the battery
on Sd street was by no means quiet at an
early hour this morning, for half hun
drod troopers were rushing to and fro,
commands were shouted and horses tramp
ed nervously. Finally, order took the place
of apparent chaos, and the battery moved
off. The soldiers took with them two guns
and two caissons and wore overcoats with
the red lining of the capes showing. The
line of march was by way of Louisiana
and Pennsylvania avenues and 14th street
to the Driving Park at Brightwood. Upon
arrival there the battery devoted an hour
to drill and then cooked dinner. Later in
the afternoon another drill is to be held
and during the firm" exercises ammuni-
ton will be used. 1..e homeward trip is
booked to begin at PM
Capt. IL. S. Barbour, followed by forty
cavalrymen, departed from the Center
Market armory shortly after 1 o'clock this
afternoon to join the battery at Bright
wood. The latter greeted the newcomers
with a cannon salute. After an enjoyable
and profitable afternoon both organiza-
tions Will Wcnd their way honeward to-
getLer. Troop A has arranged TO hold an
oyster roast at the Hotel Bedford this even
ing.
feature of the day was the parade of
the Mt. Pleasant Drum and BUgle Corps.
The little fellows, to the number of sew
enty left the Center Market armory at
1890 o'clock attired as Zouaves and pro-
ceeded to the plaza fronting the Arlington
Hotel where they went through the ma
neuvers attendant upon dress parade. The
appearance of the corps and its work was
the subject Of much favorable comment.
About noor the J. B. Henderson Fife and
Drum Corps also paraded. The boys were
frequently applauded as they passed over
the following route: From IL street and
louisiana avenue, along Louisiana avenue
to Pennsylvania avenue, to 10Th street, to
Vermont avenue, to Massachusetts avenue,
to 10th street, to the armory of the corps.

THE LOUISIANA CONTESTS.
Representative Davies Does Not De-
Iieve They VIII Amount to Anything.

Representative Davies, who reached
Washington from Louisiana today, says
that he does not think that any of the
contests made by the republican candi-
dates for Congress from that state will
amount to anything. They cannot, he
says. make out any sort of case in either
of the districts, and he does not apprehend
that the republicans in the F'ifty-fourth
Congress will go into the business Of un-
seating democrats without substantial
grounds for IL.
Speaking of the talk of repeating the
sugar duty carried by the tariff bill passed
at the last session, he said that he did
not see how this duty could be dispensed
with while the revenues of the govern
ment are as short as at present. 1t would
be more reasonable and more fitting TO the
needs of the government If the sugar duty
were increased.

HOLIDAY OBSERVANCE
The Fine Weather Contributes to the
Enjoyment Of the Day.
SERVICES IN THE VARIOUS CHURCHES
Some of the Themes Discussed
From the PuIpits.
DUTY OF THANKSGIVING

The bright sunlight and the brncing air
made today an ideal Thanksgiving holiday.
AS 1t Is a legal holiday the banks were
closed, as we'll as most of the business
places, and the employees Of the govern
;nent, we'll as of the District, were at
liberty to spend the day as they pleased.
Thanks giving day Is essentially home
holiday, and the reunion of families and the
generous cheer of Widespread tables were
the principal features in the observance of
the day. The services iIA the various
churches were well attended, and the ser
mons delivered were on themes appropriate
to a day of thanksgiving. In the afternoon
large crowd witnessed the foot ball game
between the teams representing the George
town University and the Columbia Athletic
Club.
In the various charitable institutions the
hearts OF the inmates were made happy by
generous dinners, while in many homes the
chill of poverty was relieved by the kindly
warmth of Christian charity. The Central
Union Mission brought Thanksgiving JOY
to some seven hundred families by provid-
ing them with the materials for good
dinner.
During the morning the Mt Pleasant Drum
and Bugle Corps gave a parade on the
avenue, and also the John L.. Henderson
Drum and Fife Corps.

The foregoing exhibit shows that 20. 500
fewer hands were employed this year in 80
establishments than in 1892 1t also shows
decrease of 30 per cent in the number Of
persons employed.
"A second comparison shows n decrease of
H,Sis,OO in the amount Of wages paid dur
ing the first half of this year, as compared
with 1892, by the 3aO employers of labor. 1t
represents u decrease of ~ per cent. in the
amount OF wages earned by the wage earn
ers.
Another very interesting fact that we
learn Is that the wages earned by each en-
ploye were $50 per capita for every man,
woman and child in 1892; that the earnings
of those same people averaged only s195 per
capita during the first half Of the present
year. This was loss of s55 to every indli-
vidual wage Garner.
LOSSES AND EARNINGS.
In order to arrive at a thorough and
ready understanding of the foregoing ex-
hibit we show the per cent. of loss to labor
IN wages and in the amount of business in
each section Of the country-thus:
