An Evangelistic Movement TO he Inaug-
urated Next Winter.
There viii occur next winter series
OF religious gatherings the like OF
which this country has never seen.
They will surely attract the attention
OF the religious world. especially as
the movement is to be non-sectarian in
its broader purposes. The plan in
cludes aggressive and continuous work,
not only within the Episcopalian de-
nomination, but within every denomi-
nation, the Roman Catholics included,
and while as yet no formal re-
Spouse has been made by those
in power in the Catholic Church,
there Is reason to believe that they will
give the movement their cordial a d.
Tie plan was first conceived by Rev.
DR.. E. A. Bradley, the rector OF st.
Agnes Church in New York City, and
the president of the influential associa-
tion called the Brotherhood OF st. An
drew. Bishop Whitaker, OF Phila-
delphia, gave the first cordial approval,
followed by Bishop Paret, OF BATH
more, and Bishop Potter, OF the New
York diocese. Mr. Moody heartily ap-
proves Of the proposit on and regards
1t as auxiliary to his own special re-
ligious work. He gladly consented to
arrange for his Washington meetings
so that they could be held at the same
time that this series of meetings in
Washington churches was to be held.
In detail the plan is as follows: Eight
weeks before the beginning of Lent
there will begin a series of daily serv-
ices in every Episcora' Church in
Washington, in every Presbyterian
Church there and probably in ev-
cry church OF any other denomina-
ton. There are to be held three serv-
ices daily, morning, afternoon and
evening. They are not TO be what are
cal ed revival services, they are to be
more in the nature of that extra
ordinary series of religious meetings
which was held in Trinity Church in
New York CITY during Lent four
years ago, when Phillips Brooks
preached for an hour to large congre-
cations. To Washington will go some
of the ablest and most eloquent preach
ers in all of the denominat ons. Such
men "a DR.. Greer, DR.. Lyman X.
Beecher, and every one Of the clergy
of Great Britain who has gained re-
pute in this country. Later the meet
ings will be held in Baltimore, Phila-
delphia, and other large cities 1t is
believed that the Methodists and Bap.
lists will cordially cooperate.

Bottom OF tho ocean.

Bottom OF tho ocean.
The tug James d. Nchol, with sixty
three excursionistS and a crew number
ing ten or twelve, was swamped at
o'clock Sunday afternoon, some three
miles OF the Highlands, New York.
Fifty-four Of thu se on board have been
accounted for. The rest were probab Y
drowned. The tug left Fifth street
and East River at 730 o'clock In the
morning, touched at pier 3, East River,
and then went on 10 the fishing
grounds. She had, 1t is said, a license
to carry fifty passengers, but sixty
three tickets were sod. There was a
bar and a lunch counter on board,
whose attendants, with the crew,
brought the whole number on board up
to about seventy-fve. The tug reached
the banks on time, but the fishing was
poor and the sea too rough for COM
tort, and at noon she started back.
When three miles east OF the High
lands and about south OF Scotland
lightship the waves began to break
heavily over her starboard rail. To
dodge the water and wind the passen-
gers began to run around to the port
side and to climb on ,p OF the deck
house. Phe boat careened alarmingly
to port and the water swept in over the
rail The terror-stricken mon rushed
back TO starboard AMI the tug swung
deeply down on that side. At the same
moment three heavy waves struck the
boat in quick succession. The captain,
William II. Plat, STUCK pluckily to his
post and sounded the whistle In pro.

did so the tug filed with the water

A startling state OF affair has been
brought to the notice of the Mayor
and health officials of Chicago in rela-

they made H. Mayor Hopkins of the
manner In which the health

in, but the work was thoroughly and
impartially done.
In one district, comprising four
square miles of territory and inhabit-
ed mostly by poor foreigners, the spe-
cial agents found everything ripe for
the sprea1 OF the disease. 1t was In
this ection that the scourge showed
itself first. The filth and squalor of
the locality was indescribab.e. The
men reported that only two physicians
were at work, and that but one case of
smallpox In six was reported to the
health officers. About one case in ten

infected homes came and went about as
they pleased. Vaccination had been
attempted to some extent, but the
facilities were entirely unequal to the
demand. The inhabitants of the dis
trict were found to be bitterly opposed
TO whatever work the Health Depart

10 impossible. In many instances Of
fcials seen by the representative
of the Associated Press were too much
overcome by the suddenness OF the dis
aster to express any opinion as to the
results that would follow the act OF the
assassin. Others, while expressing
the deepest regret at the death OF the
President, were chary Of giving any
publicity to their political opinions.
But among the great class outside OF the
officials nothing but deep sorrow
and indignation at the cowardly blow
that had deprived France OF her
executive were expressed. Many per-
sons believe that the crime was the
work of an ire ponsible crank" whose
enmity against France and her presi-
don't was kindled by the Aigues-Mortes
riots when many Italians were killed,
and who determined TO wreak venge'
ance for the wrong done his country
men. Whatever the motive for the
crime, the act has plunged the whole
OF France into the deepest mourning.
1t would be difficult TO express at
this time an opinion OF any value as to
the result OF the assassination on the
future of France. That political
cabals will be formed TO secure the
electi IN OF NJ. Carnot's successor goes
without saying, but the time in which
such combinations can be formed will
be limited, for on Wedne sday after
neon the Senat, and Chamber OF
Deputies will meet in joint session to
eject his successor.
News Received In Washington.
The news OF Carnot's assassination
created pronounced sensation in
Washington; particularly in official
circles was the tragedy keenly felt and
most intelligently discussed. Presi-
dent Cleveland, the Vice President,
Secretary Gresham, the French minis
ter, and other officials were given the
news by the Associated Press reporters
and learned 1t from them, for no Off
cial dispatches were received. Without
exception thoy were deeply affected
and espresso their regret in strong
terms. To French Ambassador Pater-
notre the announcement was q great
shock, coming as 1t did at time when
the internal and foreign affairs of
France are in peaccable state There
was much sp culat on over whether the
assassination had any POLITICAL signi6-
canoe or was the deed of an irrespons-
ible crank. The trend of opinion was
toward the latter elief Foreign rep
resentatives and officials acquainted
with French politics say that Carnot
wa essentially a safe man, one whom
the French people relied upon, while
they did not gush over him or accord
to him the dramatic following they
have given leaders of the stripe Of
Boulanger.

ENTERTAINING VISITORS.
Guests Like Little Personal Liberty--Th<
Golden Mean of Hospitality.


The friend who is your guest is for the
time an honored member of your family,
and the best the house affords is quietly
placed at his disposal. To treat an invited
guest, or, for that matter, the chance
guest whom circumstances have brought
within your gates, with scant courtesy or
inattention is to show yourself underlined.
1--WE take you right in as one of ourselves"
says the unconventional hostess, not re-
flecting that to do this literally may be
both thoughtless and unkind AS opposed
to this latter view of the subject, Harper's
Bazaar points out that the golden mean is
attained in households wherever guests
are entertained agreeably, but not loaded
with attentions. Never to be left a mo-
ment to ones own devices is as uncomfort-
able as to be neglected entirely. Most peo-
pie prefer little personal liberty. They
have letters to write, u book or two to
read, little mending to do, or they may
even like to go out for o walk by them.
selves. 1t is kind to let them feel that
they are not interfering with the regular
work of the house, and that their hostess
is able to carry on her own affairs, even
though she has company. The social au.
thority already mentioned says further:
A visitor in ordinary cases should not
be put to any expense which can be avoid
ed while under afriend's roof. The host
defrays all small expenses, such as car fare
and ferriage, and of course purchases all
tickets for Northumberland etc
to which the guest is TAKEN paying car
riage hire If this is needed. The guest on
the other hand, docs not allow expense to
be incurred by the host if it is properly
her duty to attend to it. A trunk or other
baggage coming to the honse from the sta
ton should be paid for in advance by its
owner.
The children Of a family should be
taught to perform little friendly services
for visitors, and it ought to be their pleas

babies upon her guests until the latter arc
