Mr.. Bayards Reception.

Our citizens who went uD to VIII.
mingtOn last night were very much
pleased with the reception given Mr..
Bayard.
The reception was under the direct
management of the leading Democrats
of this city, and was participated in bv
the Democratic clubs, whose music and
marching before, during and after the
reception furnished entertainment for
the crowds that filled the streets and
an opportunity for an explosion of the
pent'up enthusiasm of the multitude
that is always attracted by out door
spectacular displays.
NO Republican organizations Joined
in the ceremonies, although a consider
able number of individual Republicans
were present among the audience in
the Opera House, and their presence
was simple mark of personal respect
for Mr.. Bayard. The reception was
fixed for o'clock, but Mr.. Bavard did
not reach the hall until half-past s.
The Is months spent in England have
made little change in the personal ap-
pearance of Mr.. Bayard. He seems to
nave gained trihe in aVOirdupois. and
looks more ruddy and robust than when
at the head of the state Department at
Washington.
His appearance on the stage, sup.
ported by Senator Gray. was the signal
for generous applause from the aud
ience.
Mr.. Bayard spoke impromptu and
with hesitation at the outset, which
exhibited strong emotion at the cordial
and hearty greeting given him. AS he
proceeded, however, he regained con-
fidence and composure, and before the
middle of his address was reached re
called the case and fuency that marked
his oratorical efforts in the Senate
Chamber.

THE wonderful revelations of the
Lexow Investigating Committee in
New York, show among other things
that the present output of naturalza-
ton certificates is about 60 day. The
proceedings as further cheapened by
the ridiculously small fees charged.
amounting in all to 20 cents. Under
such a scale of charges citizenship in
New York is "dirt cheap" Even this
absurdly small fee is not paid by the
new citizens, but is charged up to funds
collected for the purpose by political
committees. This is different from
Judge Dallas, in the United States Cir.
cult Court, Philadelphia. He holds
that an alien presenting himself for
naturalization in that Court is to be
treated like any other suitor; that the
facts set forth in his petition are not to
be taken for granted but must be estab.
lished afirmatively by proper proof,
sufficient to satisfy the conscience OF
the Court.

Good Tidings Day at the NJ. E.
Church.

Sunday morning was observed as
Good Tidings Day at the NJ. E. Church
before a nice congregation. The
decorations were simply and tastefully
arranged. The chancel contained a
few pOtted flowers and evergreens
covering the table and placed cOnspic-
uOusly in and about the alterway. At
each end were two shocks of wheat
which were used later in the pieces en-
titled" Bringing Our Sheaves." On the
platform was a cross covered with
evergreen. Some sweet organ volun-
tares were played by Mrs. Marion
Coverdale. In the Sunday School
hymns she was assisted by the school
orchestra. AS heretofore, the Sunday
School took charge of the exercises
marching in a body from the Sunday
school room in the basement to the
auditorium. The program, Harvest
Cleaning" was used and was carried
out very creditably by all who took
pagt.
Superintendent john H. Hohecker
presided over the meeting and w. o.
HOffecker took charge of the singing.
The program opened with "GlOria Patri''
by the school and congregation, fol-
lowed by the recitation OF the APOSTLE 5
Greed in concert. After some singing
and responsive reading, Miss Kate
Smithers, granddaughter of the late
w. z. Smithers, gave recitation en-.
titled"A Little GIRLS Song of Autumn y
1t was creditably done and showed
| signs of careful preparation in both
emphasis and infection of voice.
The little tots of the infant depart
ment made quits an amusing feature il
the program as they lined up in front
of the alter way, to get in readiness fol-
song. Their merry voices rang II
full volume to their specially prepared
music.
A motto exercises by seven children
representing Harvest" followed thi
and was acted by Misses Agnes Car
row, Bertha Stengle, Laura Vansant
Emma HAZEL, Fannie Taylor, Marion
Start and Mary Moore.
Six children each bearing sheaf o
wheat took the platform and by recita
ton told how they brought thei
sheaves, after which they stacked then
at the foot of the cross to show what
harvest" they had reaped. Those wh'
took part in this exercise we're: Misse
