Pro positions Advanced By the Union for
Practical Progress.
A meeting Of the Union for Practical Pro-
gress was held last night in the lecture hall
Of the Columbian University, and a number
Of important statements were made for and
against the perfection of the organization as
independent of religious principles were
made. Representatives OF number of differ
ent denominations were present and made
brief addresses.
Rev. Alex. 4 ent. the chairman of the COM
mittee having charge of the. work in the city,
presided and snoSe upon the work before the
union. He said that this organization is a
non-sectnrian movement. non-religious in the
general acceptance OF the term. Moral forces
have become dissipated, and TO remedy this
condition requires not an individual interest
and action, but religious concentration OF
the influence OF all persons anxious for the
welfare AMI enlightenment OF humanity. it
is a union OF the moral forces in coping with
the evils that confront the people on every
hand.
Rev. DR.. Ennis, OF the West Presbyterian
Church. heartily indo-sed the wo-k of the
union, but thought Washington not a very
good place for their operations as it was CON-
filth of a manufacturing city. But this city is
the political center OF the country. anli il the
sentiment was aroused mere 1t would spread.
Rev. DR.. Sewail. Of the Swedenborgian
Church. thought thai the existence Of many
organizations outside of the church, but
working toward the same end, was reaec-
ton upon its integrity aud sincerity. Create
public sentiment OF the existence and
enornity of the evils and the church and pub
lie would be aroused to DO its duty.
Mrs. Anna L. Diges, vino has been widely
connected with the local charitable institu-
tions. gave an interesting talk in relation to
her work. She found that the person unable
10 properly care for the physical being could
not generally cultivate the moral. II is al
most impossible TO 90 TO these humble dwell
inSs and preach without some substantial
help.
Rev. DR.. Eggleston made very brief ad-
dress, in which he expressed his most earnest
wishes for the success of the organization.
Mr.. D. Pictmaa Mann thought that this
organization would not work in harmony
with the church.
Mr. E. T. Peters and Mr. NJ. A. Clancy en-
couraged the organization in taking up this

President Cleveland Appoints the Kansas
Editor Register of Deeds.
Charles H. J. Taylor, of Kansas City, was
yesterday nominated to fill the Office of reg
lister OF deeds Of the District Of Columbia. He
succeeds B. K. Bruce, who resigned yesterday
morning.
Mr.. Taylor is as well known Us his prede-
cessor. He was appointed minister to Liberia
by Mr.. Cleveland during his first term, but
only served five days. He went to that coun-
try, did not like the outlook, and, returning
on the same steamer, resigned the office.
Since then he has resided in the West and is
at present the editor OF the Colored American
Citizen OF Kansas City. a journal which advo-
Gates the supremacy Of the Democratic party
and has considerable influence with colored
voters.
By birth Mr.. Taylor is an Alabamian. He
is about 3s years old, a lawyer, public speaker,
and newspaper man. When he went to Lii
beria he left a law practice in Atlanta said to
have been worth many thousands Of dollars
q year. He is very popular with his race on
account Of his success and his talents.
Considerable disappointment is felt by local
Democrats over the appointment OF Taylor.
There were several well-backed candidates,
but the pressure brought 10 bear by the colored
Democracy at large won the day.

on THE CHINESE TREATY.

The proposed treaty with
China appears to be SUBJ
AEABkR OF CON stantially all that the
GREss FROM NEW Chinese Government wants
y, or has at any time demanded
OF the United States. The
real question is whether the American people
shall retain control OF their own country and
their own social condition, deciding for them
selves through Congress who shall inhabit
our territory and control its development
and destiny, or by submitting the question of
Chinese immigration to the treaty-making
power China shall have just as much to say
about as we do, and perhaps much more.
Our entanglements by the Burlingame and
subsequent treaties have cost Us dearly enough
already, and now alter having recovered pos
session of the subject and passed laws which
will relieve US of existing and threatened
evils if we only enforce them, we are gravely
called upon to make new treaty. placing
the subject-matter once more in the hands OF
the treaty-making power and laying the
foundation for more trouble than ever.
This treaty nullifes the Geary Law and all
other laws. 1t places the subject once
more in the hands of China. 1t dis
penses with the principal. safeguards pro-
vidcd for in the laws now on the
statute books. The truth is that more
thar half the Chinese population now here
can not possibly register. for it is here in vio-
lation of law. This treaty, which, as pub
lished, gives US nothing, is desired by China
and the Six Companies in order to supersede
and evade the Geary law.
1t is cheat and snare, and there is no
commerce in it, either. Make the CONNER
cial treaty first, and then see. At least, put
the commerce into this treaty before giving
up the photograph. which is all there is to
the registration now required. We have had
enough of Chinese lying and evasion. II the
American people are to hold this country for
themselves it is time to push back the Mon
eolian. There are $4,000 of them already on
the Sandwich Islands, which constitute our
Pacific ocean wharf. Better examine that
Gresham treaty, gentlemen, before you ratify
it. 1t is time for American labor also to ex-
anime this new phase of the subject. The
time is short. for see that the Senate is to
ratify next Thursday

All the Summer, early and late,
And in the Autumn drear,
A maiden stood at the orchard gate
And waved at the engineer
He liked to look at her face so fair,
And her homely country dress;
She liked to look at the man up there
At the front of the fast expresa
There's only fash of the maiden's eye,
As the engine rocks and reeis,
And then she hears In the distant die
The clinkety, clink Of wheels,
Clinkety, clink, so far apart
That nothing can she hear
Save the click Of her happy heart
To the heart Of the engineer
Over the river and down the dell,
Beside the running stream,
She hears the sound Of the engine bell
And the Whistles madning scream.

Kind angels hide her eyesl

Oh, hear the means and cries!

But what are the ribbons Of white and black

Who is the Man They Burned?

WOODBURY., Pa. April 2.-The post-mortem
examination Of TIE pody of the man found at
Paulsboro yesterday was held by Coroner
Smith to-day and resulted in positive ider-
tifleation OF the body as that OF Charles GAM.
The scars on the left hand and left leg, u
growth on the back of the head, and the alb
sence of nails on the little toes,
precisely corresponded with these
peculiarities on Ganzs body. the father and
two sisters of GAM positively identified the
body as that Of their missing relative. TIE
Identification OF the body buried as that Of
GAM is deeper mystery than ever.

who are careful about the pennies--and who

Ware Himself Has Not Been Heard from

The article in The TIMES last Saturday.
telling OF the Alabama planter who has been
searching hopelessly for his missing daughter
for the past six months, was republished in
the New York papers. and through this me-
dium his daughter has been located.
The accoun, as published in The TIMES at
tracted the attention of u nan in New York
who knew girl of that description, and he
reported the matter to the police in that city.
The girl has without doubt been found. as
the account from New York in regard to her,
tine time Of her arrival, and her short visit to
Washington lt in exactly. and it could hardly
be rossible to find two such cases Just alike.
II is said the girl will be willing TO return
home Ii assured of the friendline:s of her
father. She is now in poor but honest cir
cumstanees. and was deeply grieved when
she read the account Of her mothers death.
The point now is to find Mr.. Ware, who
went Baltimore las. week. and, so far rs can
be learned. has not been heard from yet by
any one in this city.
Letters has been received for Mr.. Ware
